Cheng Linye was worn down by the little rascal and had no choice but to agree.
However...
For him right now, ten million was a huge sum.
After agreeing, he looked toward Shi Yaoguang.
Shi Yaoguang, however, wore a look of misunderstanding his intentions.
She wasn't planning on engaging in conversation.
It was only after he explicitly requested that Shi Yaoguang gave him a sidelong glance.
"You pay for the money Bai Tangyuan is asking for," he demanded.
Shi Yaoguang's face soured, "Why should I pay?"
She apparently said in pique, "I'm already putting up with them, mother and son, living in my villa and with my man, and now you still want me to give them money? Cheng Linye, you wouldn't take me for a fool, would you?"
Cheng Linye: "..."
"I didn't mean that." Even if in his heart he did indeed see Shi Yaoguang as a love-struck fool, he couldn't admit that out loud.
What would happen if he admitted it?
God knows what sort of scene she would make then.
