This Amount Will Propel You Into The Ranks Of The Rich Overnight.

This offer came totally unexpectedly to Tang Xi, she knitted her eyebrows together out of habit.

She came here solely to appease Tang Min, and she was going to reject this marriage alliance as she told her grandfather the other day. Nonetheless, the thought of seeing the pale face of her father and angry expressions of the women of his family, was something worth giving it a second thought.

If she said yes to the deal, Tang Chen wouldn't get the best candidate for his beloved daughters. Even if in a rare possibility, one of his daughters happened to get married to Lu Yunsheng after their separation, she would get Tang Xi's leftover. Moreover, she wouldn't have to move out of her apartment, all she had to do was be present at family occasions, and gatherings.

Tang Xi hesitated for a long moment, then said, carefully, "Alright,"

"My assistant will contact you." Saying that, Lu Yunsheng was about to get up from the chair, however, Tang Xi's next words stopped him midway.

"I am sorry but can we discuss it now? I don't want to prolong it much further."

Hearing her said that Lu Yunsheng chuckled and sat on his chair. "Well, let's straighten everything out then." As Tang Xi agreed to sign a contract marriage without any scene creation, his anger was quelled by a quarter.

On the other hand, thanks to the torture Tang Xi went through in Tang Mansion, her outlook on life wasn't naive anymore.

"Prepare the divorce papers. We will sign it the day we register our marriage, also I want two hundred millions as my alimony transferred to my account right after we sign the divorce papers. I can act as your wife for four years at max. After I graduate, I will be starting my own business; and I want to drive all my focus into one direction, my business. Thus, I don't want any extra drama at that time." Tang Xi said with a smooth and clear voice. She did not show any sign of fear, or nervousness, just like an experienced businessman cracking deals.

Lu Yunsheng chuckled like he had just heard a funny joke. He scoffed at Tang Xi, "You want two hundred million dollars as alimony? Nice way to become rich, Huh! This amount will propel you into the ranks of the rich overnight."

Lu Yunsheng measured everything in mind and concluded two hundred million dollars was nothing compared to his grandfather's health. However, he didn't let his actual thoughts come out. The very thought of Tang Xi's not latching onto him for the rest of his life was enough to put him into a better mood than a while ago.

"What's wrong with that? After all, poor people receive nothing but glares and spiteful words. If I ask less, wouldn't that be an insult in the name of alimony from the richest businessman in the country? Furthermore, apart from this $200M, I won't demand a single penny from you. I won't follow the footsteps of the wives of billionaires." Tang Xi said, giving him a cheeky smile. As she gave Lu Yunsheng an equally lucrative offer, Tang Xi waited patiently for the man's reply.

Tang Xi had the mindfulness to consider everything thoroughly. How this upcoming divorce would impact her life socially wasn't her concern, but how it would impact her financially was definitely. She didn't give a damn how people would view her afterwards.

A while ago, Lu Yunsheng didn't notice, or he didn't want to due to his anger, however, Tang Xi's voice was surprisingly very soft and smooth, like milk chocolate no matter how rude her action or vicious her words were.

Right then, the waiters came and started serving the food carefully.

"Bon appetit, if there's anything you need, please ring the service bell," the lead server said with a smile. Then, he ushered his colleagues out, closing the door behind him.

"I will have my assistant prepare the contract and send it to you." With that Lu Yunsheng stood up from the chair.

Was that yes to $200M? That must be.

Nevertheless, just before he headed out, he seemed to have recalled something. Lu Yunsheng stopped again. Without looking at Tang Xi, he said evenly, without any emotion, "Don't dare to play tricks behind my back, Tang Xi. If anyone from my family gets to know about this contract, the consequences will be dangerous. Also, never dare to question any of my personal decisions. Remember, you are getting $200M just for pretending to be my wife outside the closed door, and you don't really hold any importance in my life."

Tang Xi rolled her eyes, and said in a relaxed tone of voice, "Don't indulge yourself in too much narcissism. An old uncle like you will bore me to death, if I'm to really marry you. You are not my type, uncle Lu."

Tang Xi had a rare personality that seldom got influenced by others' snide or venomous remarks. Which was the reason, despite Lu Yunsheng's mean words and rancorous attitude, she didn't lose her cool. In fact, for Tang Xi, the more Lu Yunsheng hated her, the better; as he would free her from the contract sooner.

Lu Yunsheng's jaw clenched. This little girl had a tongue sharper than knives! Nonetheless, he didn't say anything else, before marching away.

Song Ah Lam's hand paused, her round mouth gasping before she said, "You are getting married? Didn't you say that you wouldn't agree?"

Tang Xi called her here, as there were too many dishes for her to finish alone. She called Gu Liang as well, but the latter didn't pick up the call, thus, Tang Xi figured that he was in the class.

Noticing her bestie's curious gaze, Tang Xi smiled. "It was a last minute decision."

"So, that's why you are giving me this grand treat?" Song Ah Lam looked at the food on the table for upmteen times now. Being in the restaurant business, she knew the steep price of all the items in front of her. Before touching the food, the first thing she did was click a lot of pictures and upload them in her social media immediately. "I got the best treat giver!" Song Ah Lam cheered.
