Chapter 619: Chapter 619: You Have To Give Me Two Million
Upon hearing Qiao Yin’s name, Gu Jing sobered up a bit from his drunken stupor.
He stared at Qiao Lainan for a moment before finally remembering that she was the woman who had fallen to her knees in deep respect as soon as she entered the room.
“Tsk, tsk, you’re Doctor Qiao’s cousin? You look so much older than her though, you really do look old!” he said.
Qiao Lainan felt disgusted by his words, however she managed to wear a pitiable expression on her face, “Young Master Gu, I’m actually only twenty-two this year, one year younger than my cousin. If I look older than my cousin, it’s because I’ve had a hard life. Young Master Gu, can you help me?”
“Huh? Help you? How am I supposed to help you?”
“Please, for the sake of my cousin, could you lend me one million?”
Gu Jing thought he must have misheard due to his drunkenness, “What did you just say? Lend you one million?”
“I know that one million is nothing to people like Young Master Gu. I have nowhere left to turn, so that’s why I came to you. Don’t worry, I will repay this loan in the future. Please, help me!”
Gu Jing suddenly looked at her with a half-smiling, half-mocking gaze, “One million really is nothing to me, but why should I help you? You aren’t even attractive.”
Tears started to fall from Qiao Lainan’s eyes as she tried to make herself look as pitiful as possible, “It’s true that I’m not as pretty as my cousin. Do you like my cousin, Young Master Gu? I can help you! I can do anything, as long as you lend a hand to me. Please, I beg you!”
“You would do anything?”
“Yes! Anything!”
“So if I asked you to drug your cousin and send her to my bed, you would do that too?”
“That…”
“Oh, so you’re unwilling?”
Qiao Lainan put on a troubled face, “That wouldn’t be right, would it? I would feel terribly guilty toward my cousin if I did that.”
“Well, if you don’t want to, then forget it. Get out of my way. You’re blocking my path!”
“Wait, Young Master Gu, I can even do that for you, but… the risk is quite high. You’ll have to give me two million instead.”
“Two million is enough?”
Qiao Lainan was quite surprised, “Huh?”
Had she asked for too little?
She couldn’t help feeling regretful, she should have asked for five million! He was loaded after all!
Gu Jing caught a glimpse of her, a flicker of disgust in his beautiful peach blossom eyes.
He sneered sarcastically, “As expected of someone who doesn’t think twice about kneel down as soon as they enter the room, you really have no bottom line. What’s that phrase again? Oh right, moral kidnapping! You are morally kidnapping Qiao Yin with your kneeling, you are truly revolting.”
Qiao Lainan was stunned, her face turning deathly pale, “Young Master Gu, what do you mean…?”
“I was just testing you, you idiot!”
Gu Jing looked at her with disdain, “I was there when you kneeled to Qiao Yin. I have already figured out that you’re up to no good. And now you even dare to show up before me and try your tricks again, do you really think I’m easily fooled? Asking for two million, what a pipe dream!”
Qiao Lainan quickly shook her head, “No, Young Master Gu, you have misunderstood. I was just…”
“Two million. You would drug your own cousin and bring her to my bed. You really are despicable and ruthless! No wonder Qiao Yin wouldn’t help you. She must’ve known what you’re truly like, right?”
With his chin raised high in self-pride, Gu Jing said, “Do you think I need to drug a woman to make them mine? Every woman willingly comes to me. Qiao Yin will be no different. Do you think I need your help to chase after her? You idiot!”
After saying his piece, he bypassed Qiao Lainan, got into the car his driver was holding open for him, and left in a huff.
Qiao Lainan swallowed a belly full of car exhaust, standing there fuming with anger.
She didn’t even get a chance to tell him about Qiao Yin’s past marriage and abortion before the idiotic Young Master Gu had left, avoiding her as if she were a plague.
She stomped her foot in rage, a sinister glint flashing in her eyes, “Hmph, Qiao Yin, if you choose not to be kind, then don’t blame me for being unrighteous! I don’t just know you here, you’re not the only one. You love to brag about how Lu Lingche likes you? Well then, I’ll go and speak to Lu Lingche’s wife! If I can’t live well, then neither should you!”
