She noticed the ashtray in front of Shen Jingchen. The ashtray was filled with cigarette butts, and the smell of smoke could still be smelled from the massive office of the CEO. One could only imagine how many cigarettes Shen Jingchen had been smoking.

Liu Xi Xi wanted to tell Shen Mo Chen to smoke less, but she did not say it out in the end. She knew the reason why Shen Mo Chen was upset, and it was exactly because she knew that it was imperative to explain the misunderstanding between them to Shen Mo Chen.

He took a cigarette out of the pack and lit it with a platinum lighter. The pale blue flame shone in his eyes with a devilish intensity.

Liu Xixi took out the cheque that she had just received from Lawyer Chen today and placed it on Shen Mo Chen's desk. ”This is some property that my mother left behind. See if you can help the company.” ”And …”

Just when Liu Xi Xi Xi was about to say that Liu Mu Xin was the culprit behind all of this, Shen Mo Chen's sneer interrupted her words and sent her to hell.

”Did you get the money from sleeping with that little bastard from the Qin family? Tell him everything about my plan, and then regret it? You want to turn back? ” A hint of flirtatiousness appeared on the corner of Shen Jingchen's lips. His eyes were narrowed into slits, emitting a bone-piercing chilliness.

”Shen Mo Chen, are you crazy!?” Liuxi looked at the man before her in shock. She couldn't believe that such words came out of Shen Mo Chen's mouth.

This was a man she had loved for a few years, from the man she just met to the man she loved and hated after Liu Muxin's incident, and in the end, under Shen Mo Chen's gentle assault, he had opened her heart step by step.

She gritted her teeth, but the tears still fell uncontrollably. As they slid down her cheeks, Liuxi felt that his face was ice-cold, without a trace of warmth.

”Isn't it?” Shen Mo Chen didn't care about the big tears that fell from the corners of Liu Xi's eyes. His words were like a sharp knife cutting into Liu Xi's heart. The cigarette in Shen Mo Chen's hand slowly burnt to ashes until it finally burnt his head. He came back to his senses and threw the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray.

He didn't look at Liu Xi the whole time. He picked up the cheque from the table and sneered, ”Fifty million? ”Liuxi Xi Xi, I didn't expect Qin Xuan to love you so much. If it was me, I wouldn't have even given you a single cent if a woman was willing to post against me.”

Then, he tore the cheque into pieces in front of Liu Xixi and casually threw it into a trash can.

Liuxi covered her mouth, trying her best to not let her tears fall, but all of this was just a futile effort. Even if her tears were just raindrops, they would still fall to the ground bit by bit. This was the money her mother had left her, and it was also from her heart.

With great difficulty, she stopped her tears and looked Shen Jingchen in the eye. ”That's right, that's right. This is Qin Xuan's money. I just feel pity for you seeing you lose so miserably.”

Shen Jingchen slowly stood up from his seat, the anger in his eyes seemingly wanting to devour Liu Xixi without even a bone remaining.

”Tell me again, damn it.” Shen Jingchen spoke word by word, and in the blink of an eye, Liuxi stood by his side. He was a head taller than Liuxi, and was currently looking down at her from above.

”I said, that's right, the information was leaked to senior. I like him, so of course I don't want to let him get hurt.”
