CH 1.1

“Jiang Nian, you should know why I have come to see you, no?”

“Here is a cheque.”

There is a 7 figure number on that cheque, which is supposed to be a chip to get her to leave Shen Ming. It is also the turning point of the male and female lead’s lives in the original story filled with care, hatred and love.

Shen Ming, the one and only son of Shen, is the successor that everyone is optimistic about. He is a genius praised in and outside the circle of Giants(rich people). After getting a master’s degree four years ago, he returned to the Shen enterprise and got the position of the vice-president in just a few years. His position in the Shen family is unshakable.

A person like Shen Ming who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth is the object that countless people admire and envy.

Well, except for one thing: He actually made an ordinary female college student his girlfriend?!

The news had just been sent out and everyone was shocked! This shock was not because his girlfriend is a college student but rather, because he is too excellent.

No one in their circle would have ever thought that the Shen Ming would end up becoming the door for a poor and mediocre woman to enter the Giants. At most, she could be a plaything for a rich young master. Moreover, even if Shen Ming was serious about her, would the Shen family members agree? Never. Not to mention the fact that Shen Ming’s father plans on making Yang Huiling, the young lady of the Yang Jia(family), his daughter-in-law.

Although Yang Jia may not be as affluent as Shen Jia, it isn’t bad. They have people both in the military and political circles. Yang Huiling has also graduated from a prestigious university abroad. After returning to China, she has worked in her family business. She is elegant and beautiful, her ability is outstanding and her reputation has always been clean. In the eyes of Shen Ming’s father, she is the best candidate to marry and assist Shen Ming.

Although Shen Ming grew up, his father had always been arrogant and stubborn. He believes that Shen Ming would always obey him. Therefore, he expected that if he told Shen Ming to leave Jiang Nian, she wouldn’t get a chance to stay beside Shen Ming let alone pass though the door of Shen Jia.

So, he could at most play with the young female student. When it was time to get married, he would have to listen to his father and marry the one chosen for him. Nobody thought that Shen Ming and Jiang Nian would have any good results. They did not care that they were together at that time.

Therefore, Jiang Nian had a relatively relaxed loving relationship, brushing the female aura from 10% to the 60% mark but unfortunately, after this node, it never moved again whether she acted spoiled. confessed or personally cooked to let Shen Ming feel the warmth of home.

At this time, Shen Ming’s mother, Yao Shuqin came with a five million yuan cheque.

Jiang Nian wondered if she was supposed to accept the cheque, then spend her time eating and drinking all the while waiting for the man to find her and then abuse her? Is it time to use the tactic of the age old story of love and abuse to increase the amount of love?

Jiang Nian’s eyes swept over the cheque. She looked up at Yao Shuqin and said “Mrs. Shen, I can’t accept this cheque. Althoug you may not believe this, my love for Shen Ming is sincere. His family’s money has nothing to do with it.”

Yao Shuqin smiled softly and replied “Jiang Nian, maybe you are really sincere for Shen Ming, but have you ever thought about whether you are really suitable? He will inherit Shen in the future. He is destined to not be ordinary. Do you know what responsibilities you will have as the wife of a member of Shen Jia? What challenges you will have to face? You are too ordinary which will bring problems to Shen Ming. The two of you belong to different worlds”

Yao Shuqin once again put her hands on the table and pushed the cheque towards Jiang Nian “This will allow you and your family to live much better lives. All you need to do is leave Shen Ming forever.”

“Sorry, I can’t accept this.”

“Jiang Nian, you are too blinded by love right now. Have you ever thought about what will happen in the future when you are no longer in love? Once Shen Ming stops loving you, you will end up having nothing.

Jian Nian was speechless for a moment. Her eyes narrowed and her hand holding the coffee cup unconsciously tightened.

Yao Shuqin stared at the girl in front of her. She had to admit that at least her son had good taste. Jiang Nian’s face was very beautiful and even more striking were her jewel like eyes, which made her look like she just came out of a painting. Her eyes looked like they were full of tenderness and yet, they were also firm and pure.(T/N: This translation came out very awkwardly as I had literally no idea what the author was trying to convey xD I just know that half of it was about just her eyes.)

It turns out that her son likes this type of girl.

But, so what? It is not only that her husband would not approve but they are also not compatible.

“You should spend more time thinking about this.”

After saying that last sentence, Yao Shuqin took her handbag and got up. Jiang Nian followed suit and stuffed the cheque into Yao Shuqin’s hand. Yao Shuqin smiled but did not say anything more. After putting it into her handbag, she left.

Jiang Nian stood at the door of the cafe and watched as the driver opened the door for Yao Shuqin. The car drove away.

At five o’clock in the afternoon, Shen Ming’s assistant, Xu Chao called and said that Shen Ming had something to do and so, the original dinner plans would have to be cancelled.

Jiang Nian’s mood was low and she asked, “Is Shen Ming busy? Can I talk to him right now?”
