Huayu96: My Thirty Years of a Prodigal Son

During the stalemate, Qin Sheng was not in a good mood.

Although he had the mindset of a scumbag, he forced Zeng Li to either accept it or leave.

But in reality, I didn't feel good either.

Zeng Li is indeed a good girl.

Simple, family-oriented, loves herself, is completely open with herself, and has no ambition.

A girl like this would be perfect to have at home as a wife who brings peace and stability to the household.

If I lose her because of this little change.

Although there are many better options to come, it is still a very regrettable thing.

From the bottom of her heart, she hoped that Zeng Li could come back to her side.

But he couldn't speak up.

In this game of male-female rivalry, whoever takes the initiative loses.

So, I just kept enduring it.

These past few days, Qin Sheng had nothing to do, so he stayed home and slept all day.

If you get hungry, go downstairs to get food to bring up and eat.

Occasionally, Yuan Quan would come back to pick up some daily necessities, but she would leave after taking them.

That day, Qin Sheng, as usual, wore a vest and shorts and went downstairs to get a bowl of fried noodles with soybean paste to take home and eat.

Suddenly, the sound of a key turning came from the security door.

Qin Sheng did not turn his head.

He assumed that Yuan Quan had come back to get something again.

Without looking up, Qin Sheng said, "I didn't know you were coming back, so I didn't bring you any food. You'll have to eat by yourself later."

After saying that, he continued to eat his noodles with his head down.

As he was eating, suddenly, a pair of legs stood in front of him.

Qin Sheng glanced at it, and then almost choked on a mouthful of noodles that went into his nostrils.

He knew those legs all too well; they were Zeng Li's legs!

Looking up, Qin Sheng's face was about to break into a smile.

Is this the result of training an eagle to its full potential?

Has Zeng Li figured it out?

But he quickly put away his smile.

It's not time to draw a conclusion yet!

Clearing his throat lightly, Qin Sheng asked casually, "Why are you back?"

Zeng Li has lost weight.

In just a few days, her chin has become even more pointed.

Her face was also very haggard, and she exuded a fragile and pitiful aura.

Finally standing before Qin Sheng again, Zeng Li's eyes quickly reddened.

Large tears streamed down her cheeks.

"Qin Sheng, I missed you so much that I came back to see you."

I also want to ask you to your face, Qin Sheng, do you really not want me anymore?

Upon hearing this, Qin Sheng felt a wave of disappointment.

It seems this isn't the end of the process.

Seeing Zeng Li, who looked utterly haggard and tearful, Qin Sheng felt a pang of pain in his heart.

A scumbag may love a lot, but that doesn't mean he doesn't love deeply.

Through this period of time together, Qin Sheng realized that his feelings for Zeng Li were still very deep.

He wanted to say, "How could I bear to leave you?" but his professional ethics as a scumbag made him hold back.

Seeing Qin Sheng's expressionless face and silent expression, Zeng Li could no longer hold back and suddenly threw herself into Qin Sheng's arms.

"Qin Sheng, I've made up my mind. I don't care about you anymore. I can ignore you, but can you at least lie to me?"

As long as you keep it from me and don't let me know, I'll accept anything.

Qin Sheng put his arm around Zeng Li and gently patted her shoulder, but remained silent.

Having endured so much hardship, there's absolutely no way I'd change my tune now.

They must accept their own conditions completely.

Zeng Li bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes again.

"Can't you even lie to me?"

Qin Sheng gritted his teeth and said resolutely, "No."

The light in Zeng Li's eyes dimmed instantly.

At that moment, her heart ached as if it were being pierced.

The thought of never seeing Qin Sheng again, never feeling his tenderness again, made her want to burst into tears on the spot.

But Qin Sheng had already gone this far, and Zeng Li had given up on her illusions.

I really can't accept that my boyfriend is so openly expressing his infidelity, and he's not even willing to lie to me.

After taking one last, reluctant look at Qin Sheng, Zeng Li left in tears.

Watching Zeng Li leave, Qin Sheng stood there with a heart of stone, offering no attempt to stop her.

Sitting back down on the sofa, Qin Sheng sighed and took out his phone.

Having trained the eagle to this point, it's safe to say that a plan to win in one battle is no longer viable.

It's time to use other methods.

Of course, I couldn't just give up on Zeng Li like that.

This is one of the wives I've chosen that I'm very satisfied with.

As for other means, based on my experience from my previous life, the most useful one is buying a house.

I'd smash a big house for you and say a few words: "Although I can't give you a devoted me, I really want to give you a home."

Few girls can resist this killer move.

Of course, some people might think that spending money to buy a house for a woman is like being a simp.

It cannot be denied that this behavior does appear to be somewhat like that of a sycophant.

But Qin Sheng still wanted to make an excuse for himself.

In my opinion, the core of whether or not someone is a "simp" or not doesn't lie in whether or not they spend money on the girl.

Musk spends money to pursue women, Joseph Lau spends money to pursue women, and all wealthy people spend money to pursue women.

Are they all just simps?

of course not.

Whether someone is a simp or not depends on their mindset.

If you let a woman control your mind and lose yourself, like Xiao Ming the Sword Demon, then you are definitely a simp.

But if you're spending money to control a woman's mind, then you're a master!

You are definitely not a simp!

His current purpose in spending money is undoubtedly to control Zeng Li's mind.

Therefore, I will never admit that my behavior is that of a sycophant.

After thinking it through, Qin Sheng called Sister Zhao.

As soon as the call connected, Sister Zhao asked anxiously, "Hello, Sheng, what's wrong? Have you made up?"

Qin Sheng smiled.

"No, Sister Zhao, we haven't made up."

Sister Zhao sighed.

"Sigh, you two, what can I say to you? You're both so stubborn!"

Let's put this matter aside for now. I'll mediate for you later.

Qin Sheng smiled and said, "If you can mediate, Sister Zhao, I'll accept your favor."

But now, there's something I'd like to ask for your help with.

Sister Zhao asked, "What is it?"

Qin Sheng said, "I'd like to ask for your help to buy Zeng Li an apartment, um... as compensation for our breakup."

Sister Zhao frowned and thought for a moment, then decided it was alright and continued, "Sure, consider it a small token of your appreciation. It'll give me something to say when I mediate in the future. Um, have you found a good location? What's your budget?"

Qin Sheng said, "We haven't decided on the location yet, but we've decided on the budget: five million."

"How many?!!!!"

Sister Zhao almost spat out a mouthful of blood!

"Five million," Qin Sheng repeated calmly.

Sister Zhao breathed heavily for a while before continuing, "Sheng, if I'm not mistaken, the company just settled your commission, and that's about the total amount, right?"

Are you planning to use all of this money to buy a house? Or is it for Zeng Li? Are you sure you've thought this through?

Qin Sheng nodded.

"Sister Zhao, I've thought it through very carefully."

Zhao Fang swallowed hard and sighed, "Ah Sheng, I never knew you were such a devoted lover. You're practically leaving yourself with nothing!"

Qin Sheng smiled upon hearing this.

"Sister Zhao, it's not that bad. It's just my monthly share. To leave with nothing is a bit of an exaggeration."

Upon hearing this, Sister Zhao felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

Despite seemingly wielding great power and enjoying immense prestige within the company, his annual income, even at its peak, was only around 500,000.

This kid's monthly income is ten times higher than mine in a year!

This is so unfair!

However, Sister Zhao also knew that Qin Sheng's revenue sharing and sales volume were extremely rare and could not be used as a comparison.

After calming down, Sister Zhao earnestly advised, "Sheng, you should know what you're doing."

Album sales typically peak in the first few months, declining as time goes on.

These are the only months when you can make a lot of money.

To be honest, I advise you to save more money for yourself.

If you really want to spend it, just use half of this money, no, one-fifth will do! I'll find you a few well-behaved, pretty girls to keep you entertained, okay?
