“Don’t you want this money?” Qian Tao did not want to continue this conversation. She stretched out her hand and said, “Then, I’ll return to him.”

“Hey!” Liu Hui blocked her. “How can we return to him? What about the company?”

“Nope! We can’t have this money!” Qian Chenhai felt uneasy. “Tao, return the money to him!”

“Are you crazy, darling?” Liu Hui snatched over the cheque and placed it back in Xiao Yuanhang’s hand, “Won’t you look at the current situation? The Xiao family needs this life-saving money! Do you want to see Churui go into a bare marriage?”

Qian Chenhai hesitated after listening to Liu Hui’s words.

He truly didn’t want her daughter to be aggrieved. Furthermore, marriage was a once in a lifetime thing.

“Is this fifty million a big deal for Li Hengzhi at the moment? He didn’t even ask for an interest. We can just return the money when Yuanhang manages to make some back.”

“Yeah Dad,” Qian Churui pacified him. “He dared to lend Sis such a big amount of money. He sure is her good friend. He won’t mind. Yuanhang can make what he lost very quickly, so let’s just accept this first.”

Qian Chenhai looked at his eldest daughter. “Tao, is he really okay with this arrangement?”

“Yup, no problem, don’t worry Dad.”

“No problem, no problem,” Liu Hui added quickly, “What could happen? Tao, you must be hungry. Let Mom make you something nice to eat.”

“No thank you, I’m tired and would like to return to my room to rest.”

While walking upstairs, Qian Tao heard Qian Chenhai mumble to himself, “Funny, since when did Tao know Li Hengzhi?”

Qian Tao’s hands rested on the doorknob, trembling.

‘Everything will be alright, Qian Tao! No regrets, it’s over and it’s going to be alright!’

In the middle of the night, Qian Tao awoke from a nightmare, her body covered in cold sweat.

A nightmare of the indecent photographs of her and Li Hengzhi being spread across Sea City coupled by the humiliation and scolding of everyone had plagued her mind, making her feel uneasy.

The picture of Yan Hai’s unusual smile kept flashing in her mind. She didn’t know what it meant but whenever she recalled, she felt uncomfortable.

Did Li Hengzhi believe?

However, whether or not he believed, he had fallen into her trap.

Her uneasiness came partly from not knowing what that man was thinking.

She wished she was overthinking.

Feeling a little thirsty, Qian Tao went downstairs to get some water. When she opened the refrigerator, and took a few sips of cold water, suddenly someone caught her wrist.

She turned and saw Xiao Yuanhang. She was taken aback.

Xiao Yuanhang took the mineral water bottle from her hand, put back into the refrigerator and closed it. He stared at her and asked, “Do you have a certain deal with Li Hengzhi?”

“Didn’t I just explain this earlier? He lent me the money.”

“Lend you?” Xiao Yuanhang gave a brittle laugh. “Li Hengzhi is an astute guy and he will never get himself into something that has no benefits in return. How could he lend you fifty million dollars?”

Qian Tao was stunned by his words.

That’s true…Li Hengzhi would never involve himself in anything that had no gain.

His words increased her uneasiness.

So, what on earth was he thinking when he gave her the fifty million dollars?

Qian Tao regained her senses and pretended to be calm. “No matter why he lent me, just make good use of this money to save your company and marry Churui. Do what you ought to do.”

Xiao Yuanhang forced Qian Tao to the refrigerator door and guessed, “Qian Tao, have you taken an interest in me?”
