Chapter 92: Setting a Trap for Qin Ruoyao
Qin Ruoyao is obviously a gold-digger.
His brain must have been completely clogged with crap before, to actually be spun around by a two-faced manipulative flower like Qin Ruoyao.
Let Qin Ruoyao revel in her smugness for now. Just wait until she falls right into the trap.
A flicker of cold light passed through Luo Yuan’s eyes.
—
Ye Li had been scheming non-stop to ruin Lin Xuan’s reputation. Once Lin Xuan gets tangled up with another woman, Su Hua would definitely grow disgusted and dump him.
How could a woman of Su Hua’s status ever tolerate her man being tainted?
It was Wang Ping, an old classmate of Lin Xuan’s, whose birthday finally gave Ye Li the opportunity he’d been waiting for.
“Wang Ping, what are your plans for this birthday?” Ye Li asked.
“Brother Li, my family isn’t as wealthy as yours. How can I celebrate? Just a simple dinner with the family,” Wang Ping sighed, envious of Ye Li’s wealth.
If his family had over a billion like Ye Li’s, he could spend however he wanted.
Ye Li said, “Invite your family and classmates to the Zui Jin Mi Club, and let me foot the bill. How does that sound?”
“Really?” Wang Ping’s face lit up with joy.
“Of course it’s real. You’re my good buddy for years. It’s only fitting to throw you a birthday party.” Ye Li grinned.
“Brother Li, thank you so much!” Wang Ping expressed his gratitude.
“There is just one favor I need from you,” Ye Li said.
“Brother Li, just say it. If I can do it, I will definitely help.”
Ye Li: “Help me invite Lin Xuan to the birthday party.”
“Lin Xuan?” Wang Ping frowned.
“Yeah, you know, Lin Xuan and I always got along well. We had a bit of a falling out recently, and he’s been ignoring me. I want to use this birthday party to clear things up with Lin Xuan,” Ye Li sighed, “I don’t want to lose such a friend.”
“That’s no big deal. Brother Li, leave it to me,” Wang Ping confidently patted his chest.
“Thanks for the trouble.”
A shadow of cunning flashed through Ye Li’s eyes.
He had a distant relative who worked as a supervisor at the Zui Jin Mi Club. Their family factory needed help from their company, so he planned to have this distant relative slip something into Lin Xuan’s drink.
He also prepared two women for Lin Xuan.
He intended to take pictures of those women sleeping with Lin Xuan. He didn’t believe Su Zong would still fancy Lin Xuan after seeing those.
Just thinking about Lin Xuan getting dumped by Su Hua made Ye Li’s heart race with excitement.
He couldn’t wait to see Lin Xuan’s agonized look after being discarded, reduced to nothing without any backing.
Wang Ping returned to his class, stood on the podium, and loudly announced, “Everyone, quiet down! I have something to tell everyone.”
The students stopped what they were doing, all looking curiously at Wang Ping.
“In three days, it’s my birthday. I want to invite everyone to the Zui Jin Mi Club.”
Boom!
Wang Ping’s words were like a thunderclap in the classroom.
The Zui Jin Mi Club was one of the higher-end clubs in the country. With more than twenty people from their class plus Wang Ping’s family and relatives, this birthday feast would cost at least a few million, right?
“Big Bro Ping, did your family strike it rich? So extravagant!” A male student exclaimed in surprise.
“Don’t ask so many questions. Are you coming or not?”
“Of course I’m coming! Not showing up would be too disrespectful to Big Bro Ping.”
Finally, Wang Ping’s gaze landed on Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan had been asleep with his head on the desk. Wang Ping walked over to him.
“Ah Xuan.” Wang Dahé woke Lin Xuan up.
Lin Xuan immediately snapped out of it.
“What is it?” Lin Xuan’s tone wasn’t very friendly. He had been writing some short video content copy and was interrupted when he was in full swing, which really pissed him off.
“Ah Xuan, someone’s looking for you.”
Wang Dahé pointed at Wang Ping.
“Luo Yuan, I’ll go eat lunch first.” Qin Ruoyao turned away dejectedly, ready to leave.
“Wait.” Luo Yuan stopped her.
Qin Ruoyao’s eyes brightened.
Luo Yuan approached Qin Ruoyao.
“Yao Yao, I’m sorry, I lost control of my emotions that day.” Luo Yuan gazed tenderly, “I scared you.”
Excitement welled up inside Qin Ruoyao.
Luo Yuan didn’t blame her! As expected, Luo Yuan was the kind of guy who came crawling back once she showed him a little kindness!
Qin Ruoyao shook her head, “It’s fine, Luo Yuan. I understand you. You were affected by the changes in your family.”
“Yao Yao, you’re so considerate.” Luo Yuan looked moved.
“How’s your family now? Is your uncle okay?” Qin Ruoyao asked with concern.
“Rest assured, the company is fine.” Luo Yuan smiled, “Actually, that person just encountered some issues and went missing. He didn’t abscond with funds but instead made a lot of money. Now our family has over a billion in cash. As for my dad, he’s already out of ICU, and his health is stable.”
Qin Ruoyao’s heart burned with excitement.
Over a billion in cash… Doesn’t that mean Luo Yuan could have several hundred thousand to even tens of millions to spend? Given Luo Yuan’s nature, most of that money would probably be spent on her.
“If that’s the case, then I’m relieved.” Qin Ruoyao smiled gently.
“Yao Yao, now that I have money, I can give you a good life. Will you be with me?” Luo Yuan stared intently at Qin Ruoyao.
“Luo Yuan, I’m sorry, I…” Qin Ruoyao bit her lip.
If Brother Li saw her with Luo Yuan, she wouldn’t be able to explain herself. She could tell Brother Li she liked Lin Xuan, but what about Luo Yuan?
She couldn’t let Luo Yuan affect her relationship with Brother Li.
Luo Yuan’s eyes brimmed with melancholy, but then he smiled understandingly.
“It’s alright, Yao Yao. After going through these ups and downs, I’ve come to terms with it. Loving someone doesn’t necessarily mean you have to possess them. From now on, Yao Yao, we’ll just be friends. I’ll still be good to you, but I won’t insist on being together.”
“Yao Yao, whoever you like, I bless you. All I want now is to see you happy.”
He needed to gradually lower Qin Ruoyao’s guard against him this way. As Qin Ruoyao’s suitor, there was no way she would let him know about her relationship with Lin Li.
But as a friend, it was different.
Qin Ruoyao’s eyes sparkled, “Thank you for understanding. You’re truly a great person.”
But…
Qin Ruoyao nervously bit her lip.
If Luo Yuan stops pursuing her, will he still spend money on her?
As she thought about it, Luo Yuan picked up his schoolbag, “Yao Yao, now that I have money, let’s go shopping. Whatever you want, I’ll buy for you.” Luo Yuan said extravagantly.
Looking at Qin Ruoyao holding the necklace with a radiant smile, Luo Yuan felt a wave of self-mockery deep within.
