Chapter 188: Marrying A Rich Lady (21)

When Ming Shu was eating breakfast, Little Beastie rolled in through the window. Its fur was all wet.

It jumped onto the table and dropped itself inside Ming Shu’s porridge.

Ming Shu: “…”

When he came out of his room, Qin Che saw a colorful palm-sized animal, which looked like a dog, leaning against the bowl, gulping down the porridge.

Ming Shu chewed on her sandwich and stared at the animal curiously.

The little animal had a tail like a rabbit. It was very short and it was shaking about. It looked really cute.

Of course, if only its fur wasn’t so glaring.

“What is that?” Qin Che moved nearer to observe it.

Little Beastie heard the commotion, curled itself into a rice ball, and rolled toward Ming Shu. It disappeared.

Ming Shu didn’t have the chance to throw it away or claim that she didn’t know.

“A dog,” Ming Shu took a new bowl to scoop the porridge and replied casually.

Trash picker, who are you calling a dog!

Who is a dog?

I am not a dog!

Mini pets were not rare, but— “You didn’t have any pets with you yesterday.”

So where did this dog come from?

“It fell from the sky,” Ming Shu blabbered.

Qin Che: “…”

Do you think that you are Lin Daiyu? What do you mean by “fell from the sky”? You might as well say that you summoned it.

He saw that Ming Shu had no intention of saying any more so he just looked at it again and didn’t probe further.

When Ming Shu finished her breakfast, Qin Che had already answered many calls.

“Okay, I understand.”

Qin Che put down the phone and threw the tablet in front of Ming Shu.

It was the front of a newspaper.

The headlines were red and bold.

#The CEO of the Shen company met a pretty girl at night and had fun with her in the car#

The photo was a bit blurred, but you could still make out the people in it.

Besides this news was an article about Qin Che winning the position of the charity ambassador.

What an irony.

“Such poor resolution.” The photo was taken so poorly you couldn’t even see Nan Youyou. People who were not close to her would never recognize her.

“They were in a car, how clear do you want it to be?” Qin Che mocked. “You think that we’re taking a photoshoot?”

Ming Shu smiled. “As a professional paparazzi, candid shots must be the same quality as photoshoots.”

Qin Che: “…” If the person has such skills, why would he still be a paparazzi?

Crazy.

“Go back by yourself, I need to go to work…”

“As a boyfriend, shouldn’t you send me home?” Ming Shu raised her eyebrows and looked at Qin Che, who was preparing to leave the house.

“We’re just acting like a couple. Don’t treat yourself as my real girlfriend.”

Qin Che wanted to cry. This was not what he wanted to say. He wanted to know why he was given such a character.

And he was not allowed to violate his character setting.

What’s more, there was someone that kept finding trouble with him.

How do I survive?

“Right.” Ming Shu nodded her head. “That is your responsibility. If you don’t send me home, I will have to break up with you and we can talk about how you are so inhumane that you don’t even let your sister off.”

Qin Che gritted his teeth. “Okay, fine.”

Ming Shu sighed in her heart. Why is he still not angry?

I’m so angry!

So angry that I want to hit someone.

I can’t do this mission anymore.

…

Shen Yuanzhao looked at the short message that was ridiculing him as well as laughing at his misfortune. He could feel his blood pressure rising.

Sender: Ruan Li.

Message: Boss Shen, I have helped you get on the headlines. Please don’t thank me.

The headline today should have been about her and Qin Che. Now, the main characters were changed to him and Nan Youyou.

And it was such an awkward predicament.

Shen Yuanzhao called Secretary Zhou and immediately asked him, “What happened to the news?”

“Boss Shen, Qin Che seemed to have put his men in every single big newspaper office. When I received the information about the news, it was already changed,” Secretary Zhou explained, soaked in cold sweat.

How would he know that Qin Che had insiders within the various big newspaper offices and their positions were all quite high?

“Control it!” Shen Yuanzhao squeezed the words out.

“Okay, Boss.”

The call was cut off and Shen Yuanzhao held his cellphone in silence.

That glass of wine that day…

Shen Yuanzhao rubbed his brow. He looked in the direction of the bathroom. He could see a graceful figure through the translucent glass.

Ka—

The door of the bathroom opened and a girl walked out from within the steam. There were love marks on her soft skin and the girl lowered her head slightly, her face blushing.

“I… I will go back first.” Nan Youyou purposely lowered her volume as though she were afraid that Shen Yuanzhao would be angry.

Seeing that she didn’t throw a tantrum, the suspicion in Shen Yuanzhao’s heart dissipated a little.

“You You.”

The girl stopped in her track and said, “We can just pretend that nothing had happened. I know that you don’t like me. I also know that my love for you was always one-sided, so… Thanks, Boss Shen, for giving me this memory. I will go overseas immediately and not appear before you again.”

Nan Youyou was very nervous after she finished her sentence. If Shen Yuanzhao didn’t follow her plan, there would be no way she could make a comeback.

Shen Yuanzhao was stunned. He thought that she would ask him to be responsible…

Was he thinking too much?

Shen Yuanzhao’s heart was filled with many thoughts.

“Boss Shen, I shall leave now.” Nan Youyou didn’t hear Shen Yuanzhao reply and had no choice but to say something.

Shen Yuanzhao woke up from his thoughts and ran to hug Nan Youyou. “What nonsense are you saying? How can we pretend that nothing happened? You You, will you be my girlfriend?”

Nan Youyou heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. However, she replied to him with a hint of difficulty, “You don’t have to do this because of what happened… My… first time was kept for you. I… agreed to this.”

“I like you, You You.” Shen Yuanzhao felt like he was in a trance when he said this, as though… something had changed. However, he was unable to catch it.

“Boss Shen…”

Shen Yuanzhao pushed down the strange feeling in his heart and caressed Nan Youyou’s head. “So, will you be my girlfriend?”

“I…”

Nan Youyou was dying to agree but she couldn’t. She couldn’t display any signs of happiness and must appear hesitant, but at the same time still let Shen Yuanzhao see that she liked him.

Shen Yuanzhao looked at Nan Youyou’s expression and his heart skipped a bit. He leaned forward and kissed her.

Nan Youyou panted as she leaned against his chest and replied softly, “I do.”

Shen Yuanzhao comforted Nan Youyou for a while. Nan Youyou carefully asked, “Boss Shen…”

“Why are you still calling me your boss?”

Nan Youyou smiled awkwardly. It had been a while since she addressed him in any other way. “Brother Shen, the news… Who did it?”

“Don’t worry, I will take care of it.” Danger flashed in his eyes.

“I want to know.” She had guessed who it was but wanted confirmation.

Shen Yuanzhao looked at her. “Ruan Li and Qin Che.”

It was her.

The glass of wine last night was meant for her, but in the end, it helped her achieve her goal.

But would Shen Yuanzhao suspect her of drugging the wine?

“Yesterday night, did Ruan Li do it on purpose?” Nan Youyou looked frightened and pushed the blame on Ming Shu.

Shen Yuanzhao hated people who lied to him.

She finally managed to get him. She couldn’t afford to be suspected by him.

Shen Yuanzhao frowned and had some other thoughts. However, his mind seemed to follow Nan Youyou’s words. “Probably. I won’t let this matter end like this. Don’t worry, I will take revenge for you.”
