CH 16

Jiang Nian’s prayers to the God of Wealth were extraordinarily pious in her dreams. She thought that she would be able to regain the patronage of the God of Wealth. After all, he may never be able to find a believer as devouted as her.

However, her dreams were quickly shattered that night. When she was seeing Shen Ming off  , the devil spread his hand and broke her dreams of living in a mansion and travelling around the world.

He patted her head. The cold voice revealing a little gentleness and said: “This time, my mother has wronged you. I apologize on her behalf. However, her heart is at the right place; her intention wasn’t to be malicious to you. It is just that I was not doing anything according to her plans so she took out all her frustrations on you. This time, I have taken a stance to prove to my family that I have my own thoughts and decisions.”

What can Jiang Nian do? As a kind female lead who regards money as dung, when the man asks for her support, how can she possibly not give it away?

She flattened her lips, wanting to reject him. Is it every day that she can get five million? Can’t she at least fight for her five million?

But can’t, because she is the female lead who can face all the money in the world and yet, treat it as the dirt under her feet!

Jiang Nian took out the purse from her bag and gave the card inside to him saying: “I understand. I understand… I won’t hold it against your mother. I know that she only cares for you.”

Shen Ming sighed while taking the card up, and then hugged her: “I know, don’t worry.”

She nodded lightly, holding him tighter while desperately closing her eyes.

………… Is it because her pious prayers cant reach the God of Wealth?

“Jiang Nian? Why are you crying?”

“I just can’t bear to be separated from you…”

He smiled, calling her a silly girl and kissing her softly.

After Shen Ming left, Jiang Nian didn’t see him for nearly two months. He left Shen’s business to start his own business, so he was busier than when he was working at Shen’s. After all, he had to start from scratch. Although he had Xu Chao, his right-hand man, who even resigned from Shen to assist him, he was still too busy. Jiang Nian had to take the initiative to call him every other day or two as he was not diligent in replying to her texts.

If she didn’t know that he was the male lead, Jiang Nian would have thought that the other party had run off with her five million. Although it had been more than two month, she could still feel her heart bleeding.

But she also figured out that she is losing only five million now, but in return there will be countless five millions in the future!

Although the connection between Jiang Nian and Shen Ming is only general, the miracle is that Ms. Yao Shuqin calls her almost every day. She would constantly nag to her about how hard and tirelessly her son was working to not lose her. And how, as his girlfriend she should persuade him to go home!

Jiang Nian had yet not recovered from the grief of losing the five million when Ms. Yao Shuqin said: “Jiang Nian, Shen Ming told me you gave him the five million Yuan some time ago. He hopes that I will apologize to you… I know that you are a good girl. But you know that my son and you have no future, right?”

Jiang Nian replied she knows, of course she knows!

Yao Shuqin: “It is impossible for me to apologize. If I am given another chance, I would do the same thing again! If you really like Shen Ming, you should persuade him to go home quickly. The family business will be his anyways in the future, why should he go outside to endure hardship?”

Jiang Nian said: “I may not be able to persuade Shen Ming. Since he has already decided, you should also try to support and encourage him. You only blindly oppose him… This will also hurt him more. Not to mention that what Shen Ming needs the most right now is the support of his family.”

Ms. Yao Shuqin thought about it for a few seconds and said helplessly. “You have a point. I understand. Now that since Shen Ming has gone out, I will… I will first see how high he can go on his own. When he has eaten enough bitter tears, he will definitely return home on his own.”

Jiang Nian: “…………???”

Why doesn’t Ms. Yao Shuqin insist on it anymore? QAQ

Jiang Nian returned to A city, and the busy man, Shen Ming, sent Xu Chao to pick her up. Xu Chao said that Shen Ming had a cooperation case that he needed to talk about. He sent him to pick her up as it was very important.

Xu Chao sent Jiang Nian to Shen Ming’s new residence, which was quite close to A. 

He bought the house when he was playing with stocks some time ago and had forgotten about it. It was only after he left Shen that he thought of using it.

“Before you said that Shen Bo went to visit your home, now you are at his house. Aren’t you two developing way too fast? My boyfriend and I haven’t even touched that level yet!”

Jiang Nian screamed: “We are different. You should go slowly, don’t worry.”

“In what way are we different?”

… Of course, it is different because she is a female lead. But she can not say that.

Jiang Nian said: “Because I and Shen Ming are destined to be together.”

“Blech–” Lin Xiaoyue felt numb. “Let’s not talk anymore. I will pack my bags for now and we will see each other tomorrow.”

Jiang Nian agreed.

Lin Xiaoyue: “I hope you can keep your virginity when I see you tomorrow.” 

Jiang Nian:”…”

She took some time to think about Shen Ming’s body. Every time she hugs him, she can feel his muscles. It is especially suitable for the abuse of love, it is a pity!

Shen Ming came back soon at the evening. She noticed that when she hadn’t seen him for more than two months, Shen Ming seemed to have become more handsome. His face looked impeccable, and his temperament was even more naturally calm and restrained.

He took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves. He just came in and saw the smile on her face. Patting her head, he asked: “Are you hungry? Let me take a bath and I will take you out to dinner.”

Such a man is more and more tempting.

Jiang Nian thought that although he is the devil who broke her dreams to be rich, she still can’t help but hug his waist: “Shen Ming, I haven’t seen you for so long, you didn’t miss me? How can you still think about eating right now?”

Shen Ming raised his eyebrows and pinched the girl’s cheeks: “Love, do you need me to express how I feel to you?”

The smile on his face looked evil. Jiang Nian coughed and let go of him: “Forget it. Go take a bath, I am so hungry!”

He glanced at her faintly: “Okay.”
