"Mom." I walked over to her and introduced, "He's my company's boss, Director Zhu. He's here to see dad."

She rubbed her hands and said, "Oh, so you're the boss of the company. I'm sorry, but we don't have anything good to entertain you with, so we asked you to come over. Our Manman family didn't give you any trouble, did they?"

"Auntie is too polite." He placed the things in his hands on the table and said with a smile, "Manman is very skilled at working, so there's no need to trouble him."

Hearing these words, I cast my astonished gaze towards Zhu Vuyu once again.

Seeing the warm smile on his face, I secretly clucked my tongue. How many faces have I never seen before?

My mother had been very uncomfortable in the presence of Zhu Wechen, and to keep her from being too embarrassed, I had a few words with my father. After accompanying them for a while, I took him with me and left.

On the way back, I thought about the huge debt and my father's medical expenses, and I fell into deep thought.

"What are you thinking about?"

He broke the silence. It also pulled me back from my deep thoughts.

I turned my head to look at him, more and more conflicted. My eyebrows couldn't speak, and my throat felt like it had been blocked by something.

I don't know when I picked up that ridiculous ego of mine …

These days in the company life, although very tired, but no different from those who work, that is my expectation of a normal life. However, the moment I was in the hospital and saw my father lying on the bed, dying, I was beaten back to my original form …

The salary for going to work was not even enough to cover my father's medical expenses, not to mention repaying the one million debt.

"Lumen."

Zhu Feichen called me, his deep voice expressing his master's displeasure.

My heart tightened. I didn't dare to look into his eyes, so I simply stared at his beautiful lips. "What's wrong?"

"Look at me."

His voice wasn't loud, but it was ice-cold and full of vigor. No one dared to disobey him.

I swallowed and looked up into his eyes.

Perhaps my trembling made his heart soften. His cold gaze softened a lot.

"Speak, what is it?"

"I... I need over a million more. " I felt ashamed of myself when I said it.

Zhu Fen has already helped me so much, but I am like a potential customer, constantly asking for money, without any self-respect.

Sure enough, Zhu Feichen sneered, "From five hundred thousand to one million, Lu Man, you're not greedy at all."

When he said that, I was even more ashamed. I was so frustrated that I wanted to find a hole and hide in it.

But I was in desperate need of the money. Those people had only given me a month, and I really couldn't find anyone to help me but Zhu Feichen.

"Consider this money that I'm borrowing it from you and I will definitely repay it. I can write promissory notes." I said earnestly.

He stared at me for a few seconds, deep in thought.

After a while, he suddenly nodded and said, "It's fine if you want me to pay, but …"

When he paused, my heart leaped to my throat and I looked at him nervously. "But what?"

"You have to promise me one condition."

"Condition?" "What conditions?"

"Marry me."

"What?!" I was so shocked that my mind went blank. This was not the first time I had heard Zhu Fei Chen talk about this, but it was because of this that I could feel that he was serious.

I don't know what good it would do him to marry a woman of my notoriety.

I wouldn't be naive enough to think that he had taken a fancy to me. The odds were almost nil, like buying a first prize in a lottery ticket.

"Give me a reason." I admire myself for being able to calm down so quickly.

Zhu Fei Chen looked at me in surprise and a bright light flashed in his eyes.

"To me, it doesn't matter who the target of the marriage is, but I hate being forced, and even more so don't allow it to be planned out. Marrying you back would be beneficial to you, and furthermore, don't you want revenge? If you join hands with me, or fight on your own, do you need me to analyze the pros and cons of this fight? "
