After Running Away With a Cub, I Became Everyone’s Favourite

Xia Qingshu transmigrated into a book. He was now the beautiful, arrogant, but slow-witted cannon fodder that always antagonised the protagonist shou. Finally, after a retaliation, he met a very mi...

Chapter 14 I Allow You to Like Me

"Fifty million?!"

Not only the brothers Zhou Chuan and Zhou Qian, but even the police found it unbelievable.

Generally, civil compensation of 700,000 or 800,000 yuan is considered a lot. Some people have no money and some people pay only a few thousand yuan.

Fifty million should be the ceiling for civil compensation.

Zhou Chuan chuckled, with a perfect balance of surprise and smile on his face, "Brother Zhiyu, I haven't heard you joke for a long time."

"I'm not kidding." Chen Zhiyu was surprised. "Isn't it just 50 million? Why does it seem like 5 billion to you?"

He paused, his face showing a strange expression, "Why, the Zhou family's business situation is not going well recently?"

Fifty million is really nothing to Chen Zhiyu, who is worth hundreds of billions. The price he would spend on a private jet would start from over ten billion.

He even felt that Xia Qingshu was lacking. If he was beaten, he would bankrupt the other party.

This little fool is acting so hard for just five million.

Zhou Chuan's face was a little stiff, and Zhou Qian's face was completely black. If Zhou Chuan hadn't held him tightly in private, he would have jumped up and started cursing.

It is true that the Zhou family is wealthy, so even if they lose 50 million, it won't hurt them much.

But the Zhou family is not stupid. If everyone asks for an exorbitant amount of money, ten Zhou families would not be enough to compensate for the speed at which Zhou Qian causes trouble.

At this moment, Zhou Chuan had several thoughts flashing through his mind:

——Although Chen Zhiyu, like them, is a child of an aristocratic family, the people he usually interacts with are their fathers or grandfathers. To them, Chen Zhiyu seems very distant, like an old fox.

Xia Shan and Chen Zhiyu have a good relationship in the circle. Two years ago, Xia Shan followed him to invest in a small project and made hundreds of millions in half a year.

This was the first time Zhou Chuan saw Chen Zhiyu being so polite to others. Xia Qingshu also looked like this. Could it be that...

Zhou Chuan glanced at Xia Qingshu lying on the bed again. She looked more and more beautiful, and Chen Zhiyu's care for him was a little too special.

That's definitely the case.

Zhou Chuan was extremely sure of his idea. Although 50 million may seem like a lot, if I could connect with Chen Zhiyu through Xia Qingshu, I would definitely make more than 50 million.

The expression on Zhou Chuan's face changed several times, and his previous perfunctory attitude suddenly disappeared, as if he truly realized his mistake and wanted to work hard to make up for it.

"I haven't officially taken over the family business yet, unlike Brother Zhiyu," Zhou Chuan said, "I've always wanted to ask Brother Zhiyu for advice on business matters. I wonder when Brother Zhiyu will be free?"

Chen Zhiyu glanced at Xia Qingshu, who was lying on the bed, "dying", and said, "His problem has not been resolved yet."

The implication is that we should give him the 50 million first and talk about it later.

"I'll make the arrangements right away. I can still make the decision on this amount of money." Zhou Chuan said with a smile, "We'll also cover Xia's follow-up treatment. I'll arrange for a nurse to take care of Xia throughout the whole process."

Zhou Qian was so frightened that his eyes widened. Brother, won’t you bargain for a lower price?

I didn't even touch him, and I have to pay 50 million? !

Does he have diamonds there? !

“…”

Xia Qingshu felt dizzy.

The deal was settled in just two sentences?

Fifty million?

Are you sure it's not Vietnamese Dong, Korean Won or Japanese Yen?

At first, he was worried that Chen Zhiyu would ask for too much and scare away the sucker, leaving him with nothing.

As a result, Chen Zhiyu just said two sentences and the other party immediately demanded 50 million in compensation, and their attitude changed drastically.

Xia Qingshu glanced at Chen Zhiyu, as if he saw the words "wealth code" on his face.

Xia Qingshu estimated that if he relied on his own efforts, the Zhou family could only pay a maximum of 5 million yuan in compensation. If he could get 50 million yuan with the help of Chen Zhiyu, he would owe Chen Zhiyu a huge favor.

In the original book, Chen Zhiyu is the biggest villain. He is not only rich, but also vicious. He can fight against Xia Yubin's harem on his own. If you have anything to do with him, you will either die or be injured.

Although 50 million is good, whether it can be put into pocket is still a question.

In the face of money, Xia Qingshu decisively chose life.

Xia Qingshu weakly pulled Chen Zhiyu's sleeve and whispered, "Brother, fifty million is a lot."

Chen Zhiyu smiled and said, "Not much, they can afford it."

Then he said to the two Zhou brothers, "Look, you beat the child like this and you don't even dare to ask for money."

As he spoke, he stroked Xia Qingshu's furry head lovingly, "He wasn't very smart to begin with, and now it's even worse."

Xia Qingshu: “…”

Could you please leave? I just want my five million.

However, Xia Qingshu could do nothing but blink her big eyes and was forced to accept Chen Zhiyu's "help".

Listening to Zhou Chuan and Chen Zhiyu talking for a few words, Xia Qingshu quickly thought about it and came up with some ideas: Zhou Chuan thought that he and Chen Zhiyu had some unspeakable relationship and wanted to use him to climb up the big tree of Chen Zhiyu.

It turned out that he treated Zhou Chuan as a sucker, and Zhou Chuan treated him as a tool to climb onto the "code of wealth".

Xia Qingshu thought of Chen Zhiyu's abstinence character. In the book, Chen Zhiyu had many fans because of his appearance and family background. Almost every day, someone would "run into" him, "accidentally" spill coffee, tea, wine, etc. on his clothes, or "accidentally" run into his arms because of running too fast...

Almost every time he goes out, the bodyguards catch a lot of "admirers".

Chen Zhiyu hates these "admirers" so much that once the company finds anyone with such tendencies, they will be fired and will never be hired by Chen's company again.

The entire company knows that President Chen Zhiyu is abstinent and cold-blooded and doesn't like men or women.

Chen Zhiyu would never make friends with anyone who had ideas about him.

Xia Qingshu didn't want to die, but he also wanted to draw a clear line between himself and Chen Zhiyu. He thought about it and whispered to Chen Zhiyu, "Brother, I have something to tell you."

Chen Zhiyu: "Go ahead."

"It was a whisper." Xia Qingshu pursed her lips, and a slight blush crept up her cheeks.

He curled up in the quilt, revealing a fair little face.

Its little mouth was slightly pouted and its eyes drooped, like a stray rag doll holding an "Adoption Wanted" sign.

Xia Qingshu just wanted to act pitiful.

Little do they know that his looks, coupled with his pitiful expression, give people a sense of "the wind destroys the flowers, leaving you to pick them".

Especially the little mole at the end of the eye, which seems to be alive and makes people feel itchy.

Zhou Qian was stunned, his mouth half open, his heart pounding.

Chen Zhiyu stood up quickly and stood in front of Xia Qingshu, "Please wait outside for a moment."

Zhou Qian stood still, Chen Zhiyu squinted at him, "What? Fifty million is not enough to teach us a lesson? How about adding a little more?"

Zhou Chuan pulled Zhou Qian out of the ward in frustration.

"Fifty million, the kid wants cash." Chen Zhiyu stared at the Zhou brothers as they left, "You'll have three hours."

Zhou Qian was dragged out of the room by Zhou Chuan. The young master got angry again, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of Zhou Chuan, "Brother, my arm hurts."

Zhou Chuan lowered his voice and snorted coldly, "You still feel pain, I see your eyes are glued to Xia Qingshu."

Zhou Qian pulled the corner of his mouth playfully, "Brother, you know my hobbies."

He liked delicate beauties, and Xia Qingshu looked exactly like what he imagined. It's so delicate and fragile, but when you hold it in your arms, you can knead it into various positions.

Zhou Chuan whispered, "That's not someone you can get involved with."

Zhou Qian was furious, his voice was a little loud: "Why?!"

He has already lost 50 million, but he still hasn't tasted any sweetness. Next time, he must be fully prepared and make it impossible for Xia Qingshu to escape.

Zhou Chuan glanced sideways at the ward and formed the word "Chen" with his mouth.

Zhou Qian came back to his senses, "You mean Chen Zhiyu and Xia Qingshu?!"

"Impossible!" Didn't Chen Zhiyu claim to be indifferent to both men and women? Last time, he joked with Xia Yubin that Chen Zhiyu was either sexually disabled or just heavenly. Eunuch, how can someone still be a virgin in his twenties?

But if there really was something going on between the two, Chen Zhiyu's sudden appearance would make sense.

Moreover, the way Xia Qingshu was just now, even if a Buddhist were alive, it would be difficult for him to resist his temptation.

This little bitch is hooking up everywhere.

Zhou Qian felt heartbroken as he watched this happen but couldn't eat.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, but when he thought of Chen Zhiyu's methods, he could only sigh in hatred.

Zhou Chuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "We can't give 50 million away for nothing. I will inform the Xia family that Xia Yubin also has a share in this matter. We will each take half."

Zhou Qian opened his mouth to explain himself, but no words came out.

After the troublesome person left, Xia Qingshu and Chen Zhiyu were the only ones left in the ward.

"Go ahead." After Chen Zhiyu finished speaking, he looked at Xia Qingshu meaningfully.

Xia Qingshu's cheeks were flushed, her brows were slightly furrowed, and her lips were half bitten.

Beauty’s thoughts.

Chen Zhiyu paused, touched his nose, and coughed, "What's the matter?"

"Brother, actually, I have someone I like very, very, very much." Xia Qingshu held her chest with both hands, looking like a deer in love.

He glanced at Chen Zhiyu quickly and lowered his eyes quickly.

The long eyelashes like crow feathers covered her eyes, but they could not hide the cuteness in her eyes.

Although it is not stated explicitly, it is self-evident who the person is that she likes.

"Who is that?" Chen Zhiyu also pretended to be stupid and glanced at him casually.

After seeing Xia Qingshu slurping noodles with his own eyes, he concluded that the little fool was acting. However, now that Xia Qingshu's acting was so obvious, he instead thought that this was Xia Qingshu's true feelings being revealed.

Instead of playing hard to get, are you going to play it straight?

"I won't tell you." Xia Qingshu bit his fingernails, looking guilty.

"Then why are you telling me this?" Chen Zhiyu asked again.

"I'm afraid if I die, no one will know."

After Xia Qingshu finished speaking, she glanced at Chen Zhiyu secretly again, then lowered her head shyly.

Goosebumps all over the floor.

"A dying man is still slurping noodles?" Chen Zhiyu opened his mobile phone and showed the photo again.

In the photo, Xia Qingshu is holding a paper bowl, slurping noodles until he is sweating all over, his little face is flushed, and he looks in great spirits.

Even if it's just slurping noodles, it's still beautiful.

Xia Qingshu: “…”

Not knowing why the other party kept harping on the issue of him slurping noodles, he pursed his lips and said quickly and anxiously,

"Noodles are my favorite food. If I die, I will never be able to eat noodles again. I should eat noodles as much as I can before I die. Otherwise, I will never be able to eat noodles again after I die."

This logic is also hardcore.

Chen Zhiyu: “…”

Forget it, let’s put this aside for now.

Chen Zhiyu took a deep breath and continued the previous topic.

"How much do you like him?"

Xia Qingshu tilted her head and thought for a while, then pursed her lips and said, "Because of him, I even ruined my engagement with my childhood sweetheart, my eldest cousin."

This is a true story. Not only did he regret his cousin's marriage, he also gave up his right to inherit the "title".

He has given a lot unilaterally for this relationship.

Xia Qingshu was almost moved by himself.

"Cousin?" Chen Zhiyu's tone suddenly changed, "When did you get engaged?"

"That's all in the past." Xia Qingshu transformed himself into a literary youth, shedding tears.

"......"

Neither of them spoke, and the huge ward was filled with silence.

There is also a light milky aroma mixed with lime flavor lingering at the tip of your nose.

Chen Zhiyu half closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. When Xia Qingshu thought he would slam the door and leave, Chen Zhiyu suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice,

"I allow you to like me."

I wiped my nose with my index finger, and the smell of lemon milk seemed barely acceptable.

Xia Qingshu: “…”

Didn’t you say you would hate and stay away from people who like him? !
