242 A girl with no background (1/2)

Da Xia did not expect that reaction, thus her smile dwindled drastically.

''I'm yet to understand what would make you think that I would leave Liu Wei if you tell me to. What makes you think you can tell me what to do?''

Liling asked; she looked scary.

''No, I know you wouldn't. I mean, who would leave some money making machine?''

Da Xia joked as she opened her bag and took out a check.

She slid it across to Liling, a smirk on her lips.

''That is a blank check, you put in any amount you deem fit. Take the money and disappear from his side.''

Liling stared at Da Xia then at the check in front of her.

''You know right now, Miss Da Xia, I'm ashamed on your behalf. So you want to tell me that this beautiful skull of yours has no brain in it?''

Liling was discernably angry. She was irritated that the lady felt she could buy her off with money but more importantly she was angry that she referred to Liu Wei as a money making machine_ as though she was only with him because of his money.

If she thought she was with him for his money then that's good then! She would let her swim in her lake of ignorance.

''I mean, how can you expect me to take a check in exchange of a money making machine? Please, who does that?''

Liling asked, a mocking chuckle leaving her lips.

Da Xia stared at her for a moment before smiling.

''Hmm, you're harder than I thought. ''

She paused before leaning back on the seat.

''You see Liling, I'm not stupid, neither should you be. We both know that you have no place in the Fa family. You are nobody and without a background, how do you expect to marry into such a family?

Li Wei knows this; he's just wasting time with you. When it's time for him to marry, he'll do what is right. I don't want it to be too late for you; that's why I'm offering you this chance. Take the money and leave. I'm his betrothed and I will be his wife, so it's left for you to choose, to leave now or let him break your heart _ because that will surely happen.''
