Chapter 19

Qiao Mu was seriously about to cry. She did not know that Li Yan was such a shameless person, to the point that he would bicker with an innocent young woman over such a matter!

If it was not for that fact that she really needed money right now, she would not even engage in this conversation with him. She would definitely throw 300 RMB on the bed in a generous manner before turning and leaving gloriously.

But… even queens had to bend their backs every now and then. There was no helping it. She happened to desperately need money at the moment.

Qiao Mu naturally knew that 3,000,000 RMB was only a small sum to Li Yan. So why was he doing this to her?

She suddenly had an idea. Qiao Mu smiled and said, “Uncle, don’t tell me that… you have fallen in love with me, and that everything that happened yesterday was part of your plan. You deliberately set things up so that I entered the private lounge you were in, and you asked the man to make things difficult for me and drug me. You then pretended to come to my rescue so that I am indebted to you, and this way, you can make me mine. Am I right?”

Li Yan’s expression was as cold as ever while the young woman sitting on the bed looked cunningly at him like a little fox.

The emotions in Li Yan’s profound dark eyes could not be deciphered. He said slowly, “What if I say that you’re right?”

‘What?’

Qiao Mu froze. She was just trying to turn the tables so that she seemed like she had been taken advantage of. She was merely making things up. She did not expect him to admit to it.

Qiao Mu quickly tried to come up with a reply. This was when Li Yan said, “You have an overactive imagination.”

He was leaning against the wall with his hands crossed in front of his chest. He appeared calm as he looked at her. “If I wanted you, I could have made you mine the night you entered my room in the cruise ship. Why would I need to set you up?”
