1886 Just To Meet You
Lin Yu nodded. At least she knew her place. He said calmly, âOf course, I donât need you to sleep with me, but you need to cooperate with me on basic dates and meals. Although I ask you to be on call, donât worry. I wonât look for you more than four times a month.â
âThenâ¦â Ning Nuo twisted her fingers under the table. âCan I bargain a little more?â
It was good to fight for even a million more!
Lin Yu was displeased, but he didnât show it. âMiss Ning, are you not satisfied with this price?â
Afraid that he would go back on his word, Ning Nuo quickly shook her head. âIâm very satisfied. Of course, if you add a little more, Iâll be even more satisfied.â
â60 million.â Lin Yu was not a petty person. He casually added 10 million yuan for her.
Ning Nuoâs eyes widened again. Fortunately, she didnât ask for one million yuan. Otherwise, she wouldnât have been able to earn this extra ten million.
She asked gently, âWhen are you going to give me the money?â
âThis is the advance check. If you pass, Iâll give you the rest.â Lin Yu pushed over a check for 20 million yuan.
Ning Nuo had never seen such a large sum of money before. Although she deliberately suppressed her excitement, her trembling fingers still betrayed her. She carefully put the check away.
âDo we need to sign a contract or something, President Lin?â
Lin Yu said, âNo need. Iâm not worried that youâll run away after receiving my money.â
Ning Nuo didnât dare to run away, but she was afraid that Lin Yu would go back on his word.
The remaining 40 million was very important to her.
âI think itâs better to sign one. Anyway, donât worry, Iâll keep your secret for you!â Ning Nuo winked at him. She had met many noble and good-looking men like him overseas. It was not something shameful to like men. In many countries overseas, gay men could register their marriage.
However, their country was relatively conservative. Some men needed a cover-up in order to fool others. Ning Nuo could completely understand that.
As long as they didnât cheat on her and hurt innocent women, she could accept it.
Lin Yu thought that she was referring to protecting the secret of his contractual girlfriend for him, so he didnât think too much about it. He nodded and said, âIndeed, you have to keep this a secret. You canât let the outside world know. Weâre just contractual partners. Youâd better remember this. If you do a good job, I might give you a generous bonus.â
âI will, I will. Only you and I know about this. From now on, Iâll keep it to myself. Even if I die, Iâll take it to my grave.â
Lin Yu frowned but didnât say anything. Soon, he asked Sister Ai to draft a clause and send it over. After both parties signed it, they each held a copy and kept it for safekeeping.
Ning Nuo carefully put the document into her bag and smiled even more brightly than before. She liked this kind of cooperation. It was profitable and refreshing!
âThen what should I do now?â
Lin Yu said calmly, âJust finish this meal with me.â
âOkay!â Ning Nuo said in a delicate voice.
Sigh, she didnât expect the current culture in the country to still be so conservative. Look at how these high-quality men had been forced to do this.
She was probably eating with him for others to see, right?
A man like him should bask in the sun, hold the hand of the man he loved deeply, and walk openly in the crowd to enjoy his freedom.
Ning Nuo looked at Lin Yuâs face seriously and felt sorry for him.
Lin Yu always felt that there was something wrong with this womanâs gaze, but she was famous for being a pretentious b*tch. It was normal for ordinary people to find it difficult to figure out her thoughts.
After feeling regretful, Ning Nuo planned to eat seriously. However, judging from the style of the restaurant, it should be a French restaurant. Later, they would probably eat salt-baked snails, cheese foie gras, and deep-sea caviar with French bread.
How good would it be if it was hotpot?
She came back to the country because she wanted to eat more hotpot, but now, she had to make herself eat such food.
Sure enough, the dishes were served very quickly. It was exactly as she had guessed. She sighed, picked up her knife and fork, and casually picked up a snail. She only took a bite before she completely stopped eating.
âIs the food not to your liking?â
âNo, Iâm full,â Ning Nuo quickly said with a smile. She would go eat barbecue and skewers later.
Every year, she would come back to visit her family and take care of her stomach that had been tortured by foreign cuisine for an entire year. It was not worth it to fill her stomach with snails and foie gras now.
Lin Yu smiled. âMiss Ning, you cherish your figure very much. The internet says that you only eat 50 grams of food per meal and have to chew 108 times for every bite. It turns out that itâs true.â
Ning Nuo: ââ¦â
So she could only eat so little at every meal in the future?
She didnât want to!
She maintained her smile as she watched Lin Yu elegantly and quickly finish the food on the table.
The moment he put down his cutlery, she knew that tonightâs gathering was over.
âIâll send you back,â Lin Yu said calmly.
Since it was an act, he naturally had to go through with it. Otherwise, he wasnât sure if his father would shove a woman to his side.
He was not in the mood to pretend to be polite to those women.
He walked to Ning Nuoâs side and extended his arm to her, indicating for her to hold it.
His expression was very distant. Although he was very gentlemanly, he couldnât even be bothered to look at her. It was purely an act.
âThank you.â Ning Nuo understood. She stood up and reached out to put her hand on his arm. She did not dare to hold it too tightly.
Ning Nuo felt that she was actually quite talented in acting. She held her head high and strode forward.
However, she had only taken two steps when her high heels pulled her back, causing her to twist her feet and almost fall.
When people were nervous and flustered, they would instinctively grab anything around them. Right now, Ning Nuo could only grab Lin Yu.
She had no choice but to subconsciously grip his arm tightly. However, she was still clumsy when it came to wearing high heels, she couldnât control her other foot. Her other foot was also starting to sprain. She could only rely on the man beside her.
By the time she reacted, she had already hooked her arms around Lin Yuâs waist and hugged him tightly. Only then did she stabilize herself.
Lin Yuâs face darkened visibly.
...
âIâm sorry, Iâm sorry, Iâm sorry.â Ning Nuo quickly kicked away her high heels and apologized.
She knew that men with orientations like Lin Yu were very afraid of being touched by women, just like no woman liked being touched by wretched men.
She was just careless.
Lin Yu lowered his head. âNing Luyao, I told you that we were just acting, didnât I?â
Ning Nuo guiltily avoided his gaze. It was her first time wearing high heels, so she didnât know how to wear them well. It seemed that he had misunderstood her.
Lin Yu reached out to push her away.
