Wang Sheng gradually calmed down, and his current task was to gain her trust.
"Sure, there's no need to sign a loan contract. From now on, my money will be your money." Wang Sheng said generously.
Mi Tanhua didn't expect him to agree so easily, and was stunned.
"I have to sign it." She was so moved that her voice was choked with sobs.
The more straightforward Wang Sheng was, the more guilty she felt.
Wang Sheng couldn't persuade her, so he agreed.
"Epiphyllum, I'm still in a lot of pain after Lan You hit me last time. The doctor said that I almost broke my bones. They say it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. My injuries will take at least fifty days to heal. Don't you think Lan You went too far?" Wang Sheng began to act pitiful and finally got to the point.
Mi Tanhua's eyes were filled with heartache, and she said guiltily, "Wang Sheng, I...I apologize to you on Lan You's behalf. She was...doing it for my own good that day."
Why doesn't this guy play by the rules?
"Epiphyllum, are you accusing me of not doing this for your own good?" Wang Sheng said angrily.
"I... didn't... that's not what I meant." Mi Tanhua became a little anxious when she heard that he was angry. She felt like a sandwich now, and it would be uncomfortable if she offended either side.
"Then what do you mean? Lan You beat me, your boyfriend, so badly, and you didn't seek justice for me. I've been so nice to you in vain." Wang Sheng said angrily.
Mi Tanhua didn't know how to answer, but she didn't want to make Wang Sheng angry, so she hesitated and said, "Wang Sheng, can I let Lan You apologize to you?"
"Can just two words of apology make up for the harm she has done to me? Mi Epiphyllum, you must do something to repay my heartfelt love for you." Wang Sheng said forcefully.
"For you, I gave up the entire sea of flowers. For you, I was laughed at by my friends. For you, I even rebelled against my parents. For you, I can give you one million. All this is just because I like you and want to please you, but now you make me angry and heartbroken for an outsider." Wang Sheng pretended to be hurt.
Lu Wanying listened to his words and wished she could plug her ears.
This man has no shame in lying.
She got goose bumps all over her body.
Mi Tanhua was really serious and panicked. "Wang Sheng, I don't want you to be angry. I know Lan You's actions were a bit biased. She shouldn't have beaten you so badly. I didn't support it in the first place. What do you want to do to make you forgive her?"
Maybe everyone is selfish.
It was obvious that Lan You beat Wang Sheng for her, and threatened him not to tell anyone.
But Lan You's approach could only solve her immediate problem. The problem she wanted to solve most was the one million debt.
Lan You can't solve it, only Wang Sheng can help her.
As long as Wang Sheng's request is not excessive, she can agree to it all.
At this moment, her balance has tilted towards Wang Sheng.
Wang Sheng pretended to be very angry, with a gloomy face.
Mi Tanhua looked at him hesitantly for a few seconds, and when she realized he was really angry, she suddenly became anxious, her words ingratiating, "Should we ask her to apologize, clean up, or play a trick on her?"
She felt that she was a little humble at the moment, but she didn't care at all.
Lu Wanying listened from the side and opened her eyes wide in surprise.
This squad leader is really an ungrateful guy who forgets his friends for the sake of beauty.
Money bought her off.
Now he actually took the initiative to offer suggestions on how to deal with Lan You.
Although these are all harmless little tricks, the starting point is problematic.
Lu Wanying became very angry when she heard this, and looked at Mi Epiphyllum with resentment.
Mi Epiphyllum felt the hostility coming from her and was a little confused.
Wang Sheng's gloomy expression didn't soften at all.
Seeing that he seemed dissatisfied with her proposal, Mi Tanhua racked her brains to think of a way to appease Wang Sheng.
If her current flattering behavior were to happen in the past, she would naturally feel ashamed.
In order to please a boy, give up caring about her friends.
But now, she has no choice and no way.
Between family and friends, she naturally chooses family.
"Then what do you want me to do in order for you to forgive me and Lan You?" Mi Tanhua was at a loss and asked humbly.
Wang Sheng asked her to come over. He leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Put the necklace I gave you in Lan You's schoolbag and tell her to leave Qinghe."
Lu Wanying realized that this would be the key point, so she moved very close and didn't hear anything.
Seeing that Wang Sheng had finished speaking, she moved away a little bit in annoyance to avoid being discovered by them.
She didn't hear the key information, so at this critical moment, she didn't dare to be distracted and send a message to report to Lan You.
Mi Tanhua's body froze in place, echoing Wang Sheng's words in disbelief.
This could result in expulsion from school at the very least, or even imprisonment at the worst.
If the news of the theft gets out, it will ruin Lan You's life.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Wang Sheng said angrily, "Mi Epiphyllum, are you really worthy of my love? I'm not just doing this for myself, but also for you. If Lan You hadn't forced you to speak, would those rumors have spread throughout the school and almost ruined your reputation?"
"I give you the love you want, the life you want, and I give you a million without asking anything. I even made an agreement with you to be together for the rest of your life. Can't you even do such a small thing?" Wang Sheng thought she would agree to him without hesitation, but she looked a little unwell.
He began to threaten her in a roundabout way using emotions and money.
Mi Epiphyllum gradually came to her senses and sat back in her seat numbly.
She pondered for a moment and replied, "I don't want to build my happiness on the suffering of others."
What Wang Sheng said was indeed correct. If she was in love, she would probably agree without hesitation and regardless of the consequences.
But she is not.
She could allow him to give Lan You some small punishments, which was the concession she could make.
But she is not without bottom line.
Being expelled from school is no longer a small punishment; it concerns Lan You's lifelong reputation.
She knows her limits.
She achieved success for herself, but ruined Lan You. She didn't want happiness gained in this way.
Wang Sheng looked at her in confusion and shouted, "Mi Epiphyllum, explain to me clearly what you mean."
Mi Tanhua lowered her head expressionlessly, and said with unprecedented calmness, "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
She reached out and took off the necklace from her neck with great effort. She held it tightly for a moment, then gradually loosened her grip, leaving marks of the necklace on her palm.
She pushed it away, as if she had given up her own happiness with her own hands.
Her eyes gradually darkened and her heart became dead.
When Wang Sheng saw the necklace, he didn't expect Mi Tanhua to refuse so decisively.
This means he failed.
He had made a solemn promise to Qi Heng, but now he saw that he couldn't even complete the task, let alone the generous reward.
"Mi Tanhua, you have to think clearly. You can only choose one between me and Lan You. If you choose me, I will naturally give you the one million, but if you choose Lan You, you will get nothing." Wang Sheng said directly.
