Hire him for 180,000, pay in installments

"Thanks, now I understand why you're so popular. If you weren't so moody, probably more people would like you."

Mu Lingqian's face suddenly darkened.

Seeing this, Wen Xiangyang pointed at Mu Lingqian, "Look at you, one minute you're laughing and the next you're frowning. So unpredictable."

After saying this, she noticed that Mu Lingqian's face looked even worse.

Then she stopped joking. After some hesitation, and with a serious face, she said, "Handsome, can we discuss something, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Lingqian glanced at Wen Xiangyang, "What's it?"

"Are you free the day after tomorrow? Can I hire you for a day? How much is your appearance fee during the day? As you heard before, I want to find a man to make an appearance. You..."

Mu Lingqian looked Wen Xiangyang up and down, "Two hundred thousand."

Two hundred thousand, for a man of his caliber, was not too expensive.

Wen Xiangyang hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "I don't have two hundred thousand right now. But…"

Wen Xiangyang's father was rich. Her step-sister would spend tens of thousands on a meal alone, but her relationship with her family was awful. She didn't want to take a penny from her awful father.

Seeing Wen Xiangyang's distressed look, Mu Lingqian glanced at her again, and said in the same cold voice, "One hundred and eighty thousand, you can pay in installments."

A two thousand discount and the option to pay in installments?

Being bullied by jerks was bad enough, compared to finding an unreliable jerk, it's better to hire one with money.

"Fine, one hundred and eighty thousand. I'll hire you for a day, and pick you up the day after tomorrow morning,"

With the matter resolved, Wen Xiangyang felt relieved. Looking at the man beside her, she happily suggested, "Have you eaten yet? You offended your gold master for my sake and you're giving me such a low price. How about I treat you to dinner? I can tell you about my situation so you won't be caught off guard."

Mu Lingqian's cold face was without expression.

Wen Xiangyang tentatively said, "The food here is too expensive. You know that I don't have a lot of money. I'd like to invite you for a street meal. Do you mind?"

As she said this, Wen Xiangyang looked around and mumbled, "It's strange, there were a lot of people here an hour ago. How come it's just us now?"

Mu Lingqian heard Wen Xiangyang's words and, with an indifferent glance, thought that capturing a rabbit like her could be an interesting task.

The two left the Sid Restaurant. Assistant Zhang wasn't sure what his boss was thinking; he only knew that it was best not to appear at the moment.

There was a Maybach parked nearby, but his boss unexpectedly got into the taxi Wen Xiangyang had called.

Anyway, she had paid one hundred and eighty thousand to hire him, so on the way to dinner, Wen Xiangyang was not afraid to share her past with Mu Lingqian.

"It's a long story to talk about my past issues, so I'll just touch on the main points. The guy I am going to marry the day after tomorrow has been pursuing me since my first year of university. He pursued me for around two years, and seeing his desperate efforts, I agreed to date him."

"During university, I had a roommate who was very clingy to me and Xiao Xin. Oh, Xiao Xin is my bestie. As time went on, Xiao Xin and I considered her a friend. Later on, naturally, that girl and that boy had an affair."

"Xiao Xin investigated it. At first, the boy didn't agree to it. But then, the girl suddenly became the illegitimate daughter of the Chen family."
