Volume One, Chapter Six: Marry Me for a Billion

Page 1/3

Qiao Nian’an’s delicate face was framed by eyes shimmering with moisture, carrying an air of lofty pride, her voice cold and distant.
“You can claim insurance; I can compensate you.”
Fu Yunzhen glanced at her, then after a moment said, “This Maybach is custom-made, worth more than market price. Are you sure you want to talk about compensation with me?”
Qiao Nian’an was speechless.
Judging by his tone, was he suggesting she replace it with a new one?
“If we settle this privately, I won’t report it to the police,” Fu Yunzhen said, looking at her.
Qiao Nian’an felt suffocated in the cramped space.
She planned to lean against the window, but unexpectedly, her soaked pencil skirt slid up several inches along her thigh.
Blushing, she hurriedly tried to pull it down.
At that moment, the driver turned back, asking Fu Yunzhen where to go next.
With a slight frown, Fu Yunzhen removed his jacket and casually draped it over her legs, concealing the revealing scene.
An inexplicable heat stirred within him.
But thinking of her fair, slender legs he had once controlled, his body grew even more restless.
Qiao Nian’an felt the weight on her legs; she looked down to see the jacket mingled with his faint scent and body heat.
“If you don’t want to settle privately, then pay up. This car was just bought—11 million. Will you pay cash or card?”
Seeing her silent all along, Fu Yunzhen began to pressure her.
Qiao Nian’an’s head ached. She was already drowning in 900 million in external debts, and now there was over ten million more...
She was truly doomed!
Pale, she said, “I’ll write you an IOU. I’ll repay in installments when I’m financially stable.”
If this were six years ago, ten million would have been like a hundred bucks to a tycoon’s daughter like her.
But now, with her family fallen from grace, burdened by debt, working three jobs daily to pay it off...
“Don’t you have a boyfriend? How could he let you work in such a place? Let him compensate you.”
Qiao Nian’an frowned.
It seemed one couldn’t lie.
She only said she had a boyfriend to warn others against treating her frivolously.
Now, the boomerang had hit her squarely.
“Qiao Nian’an.”
Fu Yunzhen called her name.
After six years, he could finally say it to her face.
He lifted his strong, knuckled fingers, pinching her jaw to force her to meet his deep, dark eyes.
His gaze was sharp and bloodshot.
He wanted to ask: Did you regret dumping me?

But looking into those glistening, watery eyes, he knew he had lost.
Her sexy Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as she said, “A man who lets a woman work at a club isn’t a good man. Break up with him.”
“My number hasn’t changed.”
Qiao Nian’an remained silent.
Fu Yunzhen, thinking of her coldness back then, grew restless.
He pulled a business card from his suit pocket and slipped it into her hand.
“I’m giving you time to break up. Contact me in three days—either you pay the money or you pay me with yourself. You have to choose.”
With that, Fu Yunzhen let Qiao Nian’an out of the car.
She watched the luxury car, worth tens of millions, fade into the heavy rain. Just as she was about to ask him to stop, he had already let her out.
Staying any longer inside would suffocate her.
Besides, she didn’t want him to see where she lived—shabby housing in the urban village.
Qiao Nian’an knew she could only take a taxi in this rain.
When she arrived downstairs, a black luxury car was parked at her feet. Someone stepped out.
Startled, she frowned as she recognized the man. “Who are you?”
“I’m your fiancé, Fu Jingchuan.” The man reached out, pinching her jaw with a playful smile. His peach blossom eyes scanned her body, satisfaction shining in them.
Qiao Nian’an’s expression darkened. She raised her hand and slapped away his grip. “You pervert!”
“You ungrateful woman, is Qiao Jianhua your eldest brother?” A bodyguard-like man stepped forward, scolding her.
“No...” Qiao Nian’an felt something was off.
Now was not the time to acknowledge kinship.
Who knew what misdeeds that scoundrel Qiao Jianhua had committed outside...
“Still won’t admit it? Qiao Jianhua gave our young master your family’s address and your photo. Your brother sold you to our young master.”
Qiao Nian’an frowned. “Are you all ignorant of the law? Human trafficking is illegal! Besides, why would Qiao Jianhua sell me?”
So Qiao Jianhua would actually betray her for money?
Fine!
When she saw him again, if she didn’t smash his head, she’d change her surname!
“Our young master is lucky to have chosen you. Don’t be ungrateful. If you become our young madam, your family’s debts will naturally be resolved.” The bodyguard didn’t expect Qiao Nian’an to be so fiery.
Hearing this, she looked at the playboy Fu Jingchuan beside her and said, “Then show me your capability and sincerity first—give me a check for one billion that I can actually cash.”
All talk and no action—she knew how to play that game, too.
Fu Jingchuan was taken aback by her immediate demand for a billion.
He had never met a girl who asked for money upfront.
Other women claimed they didn’t care about his money, only him.
But in the end, all wanted his money.

Hypocrites!
This girl in front of him felt far more genuine.
“I’ve already given your brother money. I promised him I’d marry you and treat you well,” Fu Jingchuan said.
“How much did you give my brother?” Qiao Nian’an asked.
“Five hundred thousand,” he replied.
Qiao Nian’an ground her teeth.
Five hundred thousand to sell her to a notorious playboy in Beijing?
Fu Jingchuan was a great devil.
He changed women as often as he changed clothes.
Several women even died for him, causing scandals everywhere.
And now he spent five hundred thousand to buy her life?
Fat chance!
Her face darkened. “Every debt has its debtor. Marry Qiao Jianhua then! I won’t marry a stingy miser like you.”
Fu Jingchuan sneered.
“Qiao Nian’an, you’re down and out, yet your pride hasn’t changed one bit,” he said, gazing into her shimmering eyes.
He had once pursued Qiao Nian’an.
He sent her flowers, only for her to give them to the class’s chubby girl.
He invited her to the movies; she threw the tickets in the trash, leaving him waiting outside all night!
This young lady was utterly unmoved.
Before he could win her over, his parents forced him to study abroad.
He had been back for some years but couldn’t find any news of her, only knowing her family had fallen.
Until the day before, he met Qiao Jianhua at a casino and learned where she was and what had happened.
He spent five hundred thousand to buy her from Qiao Jianhua.
From now on, she was his golden cage.
No one else would covet her!
Qiao Nian’an’s pride had never faded. She straightened her back and said to Fu Jingchuan, “I’m down, yes, but that doesn’t mean I’ll sell myself to you, a playboy. I wouldn’t marry a dog like you!”
“Fifty thousand isn’t enough to marry me? I’m down, not degraded! Marrying me costs one billion!”
She didn’t believe Fu Jingchuan would pay one billion to marry a woman with a child!
