Bestow Me a Love Like Wind - Chapter 41

Chapter 41: How Much For One Night? V

She knew that it was a strange proposition – after all, she was the wife of the young master of Leng organization, who also happened to be the CEO of Royal Strike Entertainment. However, she truly wanted to ask Leng Sicheng for no more money ever again! Every time she did so, whatever little of her pride that was left would deplete to oblivion.

Moreover, when she called him this time, Chen Wenjie picked up the phone. Nonetheless, even if it were Leng Sicheng who had answered, and even if he were willing to give her the money, she would not take a single cent! That condescending, mocking gaze he wore every time he gave her cash felt like someone stabbing her right in the heart!

She was well aware that her husband was a miser with her but very generous with other women. Chen Wenjie would be paid upwards of 1 million yuan for shooting one advertisement. But, so what? Gu Qingqing was neither covetous, envious nor was she troubled. She simply did not want to continue this meaningless life.

“I’m sorry. I really don’t want to ask for any more money from Leng Sicheng. I…”

Li Youyou was taken aback, but she had also known Gu Qingqing for many years and understood her situation. That asshole of a Leng Sicheng should have never married Gu Qingqing if he had no feelings for her. Now that they were married, why did he have to go out and drink all day long ? Why did he have to let her live a life that was lesser than the women he cheated with?

Li Youyou’s family was pretty much the same. Since her father came to money, he spent his wealth on mistresses, altogether abandoning Gu Qingqing and her mother. She understood precisely how horrendous that must have felt. Li Youyou smacked her chest and nodded.

“No problem. It’s okay, even if you don’t pay me back. If there’s anything else you need, please tell me!”

“How can I do that?” Gu Qingqing shook her head. “Don’t worry. I will make sure to pay you back by next month.”

“What happened to your brother?” Li Youyou asked, suspicious. 10,000 yuan was a small sum. She really would not have minded even if Gu Qingqing did not pay her back. However, she knew about Gu Qingqing’s family, that brother of hers, and that mother…

“That’s not important. I told my brother that this would be the last time! If he gets himself into trouble again, I will divorce Leng Sicheng and not care about him anymore!”

Li Youyou patted her friend on the shoulder. “You should’ve divorced him a long time ago! You’ve been his obedient wife for so many years, but if you’re really going divorce him, what do you plan to do in the future?”

Gu Qingqing appeared calm. “I don’t want a single cent from him! Don’t worry, I’ve found myself a job. I’m starting Monday. At least I’ll be able to take care of myself.”

“Good! That’s what I call determination! I believe in you!” Li Youyou took out her phone to transfer the money to Gu Qingqing. “How much is it again? Is 10,000 yuan enough? Should I send more?”

Before Gu Qingqing could answer, someone suddenly ran into them, shouting, “10,000 yuan? I’ll pay!”

Gu Qingqing jumped a little, startled. She turned around and saw that it was an overweight middle-aged man with big ears. He looked like he had a little too much of a drink and was stumbling about. The man studied Gu Qingqing from head to toe and then nodded in satisfaction.

“Miss, do you do the thing?”

“I’m not.” Gu Qingqing shook her head.

The guy quickly added, “Is 20,000 enough?”

“I already told you that I DO NOT!” Gu Qingqing’s face quickly darkened.

But that only encouraged the man. He quickly blocked her path and protested, “30,000! No, if you take care of Leng Sicheng, I’ll give you as much as you want!”
