Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This was a dream she had when she was young. A person would come to protect her, help her chase away all the bad guys, and then bring her away. But she didn’t wait, never…

“Are you alright?” Gu Mingcheng asked concernedly when he saw that she was not in the right state.

Ye Zhiqing, whose eyes were slightly moist, blinked lightly and retracted the emotions in her eyes. Looking at Gu Mingcheng, who was so close to her, she felt a little different.

Lin Xiu sat up and roared, “Ye Zhiqing, don’t forget that you still owe me a life. Are you trying to get rid of us now that you’re rich? Impossible!”

Ye Zhiqing’s face was pale and her body was stiff. This was a taboo to her.

Gu Mingcheng frowned when he saw her reaction. He stood in front of her and said, “Just tell me what you want.”

Lin Xiu, her eyes flashing, sized him up. “We want two million!”

Gu Mingcheng asked calmly, “Didn’t you say a million just now?” He had heard their conversation.

“Don’t you want to pay for what you’ve done to my son? Besides, you’re so rich, so why would you care about a million yuan?” Lin Xiu complained.

She had long heard from Tian Xin that Ye Zhiqing’s boyfriend was a big shot from the capital. Of course, she took the opportunity to cheat money out of him.

Gu Mingcheng’s lips curled up slightly. If Cao Ling saw this smile, he would probably leave as soon as possible. Every time President Gu showed this expression, it meant that someone was in trouble.

“Alright, I can give it to you guys. But this is the last time. Don’t come harass Zhiqing in the future.”

Lin Xiu agreed readily. They could talk about this in the future. It seemed that this b*tch really established ties with a rich person. She looked at Ye Zhiqing’s pretty face and scowled. She was really a vixen who knew how to seduce people.

Initially, she had planned to betroth her to her son, but now, it seemed that it was more worth it to use her to earn money. Thinking so, Lin Xiu dispelled the dirty thoughts in her mind.

“You can go back now. Someone will send you there tomorrow,” Gu Mingcheng said.

Lin Xiu frowned. “What if you go back on your word?”

“Don’t you know where we live? Are you afraid that we’ll run away? Besides, isn’t it just two million yuan? It’s nothing to me. Didn’t you say that this sum of money is for the children in the orphanage? Of course, I have to call your orphanage.” Gu Mingcheng looked at them disdainfully.

This made them even more convinced, and they left happily. Before they left, Lin Xiu even said to Ye Zhiqing, “Zhiqing, you did the right thing. I will keep that matter a secret forever.”

Ye Zhiqing remained silent. She lowered her head so that no one could see her expression. “Even if you give them this money, they will still come looking for you. They are blood suckers and have no conscience.”

They wouldn’t give the money to those children. She had always known about this, but… she had no choice. As long as that matter existed, she couldn’t get rid of them.

Ye Zhiqing got up and left the living room. She returned to her room and curled up in the corner. This was a habit she had since she was young. Only then could she feel a sense of security.

Gu Mingcheng suddenly felt a sense of heartache. He had never seen Ye Zhiqing like this before, but it only lasted for a moment before he put away his feelings. With his status, he could not allow a woman to influence his feelings.

He stopped in his tracks. He was on guard. He seemed to have too many feelings for this woman. If he liked her, he would keep her by his side, but he would never fall in love with her.

There was still food in the kitchen, but neither of them was in the mood to eat. The doorbell rang again, and the familiar secret signal indicated that it was Cao Ling.

When Gu Mingcheng opened the door, he saw Cao Ling behaving like a thief. He sneakily took out a small package and handed it over. The package was tightly wrapped and no one could tell what was inside.

“President Gu, this is what you want.”

“What did I want? Look at you. Did you go rob someone?” Gu Mingcheng was irritated and retorted.

“You… you wanted… couple cups.” The innocent Cao Ling felt very wronged. Today, he had gone to all the shopping malls in order to find President Gu’s cup. When he finally found it, he hurriedly sent it over..
