Ye Wenyu's lips trembled, as if they were filled with scalding hot oil. She spoke to him with suspicion and sarcasm, "Before, when we were in Hangzhou, you said that Lin Yeju was built for me, and I liked it very much. Later in England, you explained your demands to me. You said that if I agreed, you would give Lin Yeju to me; I wanted the property rights to Lin Yeju." She raised her head, looking at Lin Tingfeng suspiciously, her face sarcastic, and slowly said, "I hope you keep your word." Her expression indicated that she didn't believe he would actually transfer the property rights to Lin Yeju to her.
Lin Tingfeng understood, and felt even more hurt. However, he was a man of his word, and he said, "Of course, I'll take you to register the property tomorrow." His throat was a little dry and sore.
Ye Wenyu relaxed, leaning back in her car seat. Only then did she realize that the agonizing negotiation was finally over. She had sold herself, and for a good price. Haha, in their love war, she had turned the tables. No woman in this world could exchange several years of her youth for a villa worth fifty or sixty million.
With her eyes closed, she said to him, "Since you've given me such a good price, I should reciprocate. If you want me to stay by your side tonight, I will agree."
Lin Tingfeng chuckled, then said after a moment, "No need, you should go back to school. I'll pick you up first thing tomorrow morning."
Ye Wenyu opened her eyes and met Lin Tingfeng's concerned gaze. At that moment, she realized that his eyes were very clear, and she saw her own reflection in his clear, autumn-water-like eyes—vulgar and vain. She hated this version of herself! She felt annoyed again. She loved him so much, yet she had asked him for such an unequal material reward. No matter how rich Lin Tingfeng was, his money didn't grow on trees. Because she didn't want to face it, she hurriedly said goodbye and got out of the car as if she were fleeing.
Ye Wenyu jumped out of Lin Tingfeng's car like a whirlwind and ran back to the girls' dormitory in a few strides. Everything still felt like a dream, but as she opened her Alipay account with trembling hands, her eyes widened at the balance. The extra 100,000 yuan reminded her that it wasn't a dream, that it was all real. The numbers symbolizing wealth were like needles that almost pricked her eyes until they bled, and they were like stimulants that made her blood rush through her body. This was the first time in her life that she had so much money.
As if to verify his authenticity, she trembled as she opened the Alipay transfer record. A person named "Lin Ye Jushi" had transferred 100,000 yuan to her. This person was Lin Tingfeng, and his Alipay account name was actually Lin Ye Jushi.
Is Lin Yeju really that important to him? Is she also important to him?
Ye Wenyu stared at the transfer record, her heart seemingly revived, beginning to beat faster like a deer's.
If a girl meets the person she loves when she is young, and the two are in love and the man who loves her is also very rich and can protect her for life, then that is naturally the happiest thing in the world.
But do such beautiful stories really exist? They only happen in fairy tales, right?
Everything is true. She is in control of her own life. Just now, she calmly sold herself to Lin Tingfeng and received an extremely high price. Tell me, how many women in this world can sell themselves for such a price? Just by being someone's mistress, she received a villa worth fifty or sixty million.
Haha, you know, many people in this world spend their entire lives and can only afford a small house. She was Lin Tingfeng's mistress for a few years and actually got a villa in return. Isn't that incredibly lucky, an amazing deal for her?
It feels like a poor person who has bought lottery tickets for many years and failed every time, but finally, one day, they win the grand prize.
Why is she sad? She should be laughing out loud and celebrating her incredible luck!
That night, Ye Wenyu tossed and turned in bed in the girls' dormitory, unable to sleep. Reason told her she had struck gold and should laugh out loud, but inside, she felt a piercing, agonizing pain, like being slowly tortured. She thought it was probably because she was still Lin Tingfeng's mistress, because love couldn't be reciprocated as an equal. As a mistress, she would forever live like a rat in the dark, a cockroach unable to see the sunlight, in a shadowy corner.
Time passed without anyone noticing. As dawn broke, her roommates got up, washed, and went to class. But for the first time in her life, Ye Wenyu acted like a bad student, making excuses that she was sick and skipping class.
After her roommates went to class, she was left alone in the dormitory. She picked up her phone and called her mother, asked for her bank account number, and transferred 40,000 yuan to her to save her life.
Upon receiving the money, Zhang Susu wept with joy. She thought with relief that her daughter had grown up and was very promising, able to share the burden of life with her. On the phone, she proudly said, "Xiaoyu, thank you. Your father is saved. My child, you are truly my pride!"
Ye Wenyu smiled bitterly. She thought to herself, she had fallen so low as to become a rich man's mistress, yet her mother was proud of her. This really is an era that laughs at poverty but not at prostitution!
She chatted briefly with her mother before hanging up. Lin Tingfeng's phone rang during her call with her mother, so she knew he was probably waiting for her outside the school. She quickly tidied herself up, grabbed her ID, applied some simple makeup, and wore her favorite denim overalls before rushing out. She was surprisingly filled with anticipation at seeing him.
Because she liked him, even though she knew she was just his lover, she still dressed up for him.
To her surprise, he wasn't waiting for her outside the school gate like he had the night before, but rather outside her girls' dormitory. When she came out, he was standing under a camphor tree smoking, his tall and straight back as handsome as a painting. He smiled when he saw her.
Thinking about her true relationship with him, Ye Wenyu felt extremely embarrassed. Her face flushed red as she looked around to make sure no one she knew was there before quickly walking to his side and complaining, "Could you please not wait for me outside the school anymore—"
Lin Tingfeng hesitated.
Ye Wenyu said softly, "I don't want others to know my identity and laugh at me." A wave of sadness washed over her again.
Lin Tingfeng then realized that she had always been resentful about her being his lover.
He said gently, "Okay, don't worry." He then deliberately kept his distance and walked behind her. When they arrived at the parking lot, they got into the car one after the other.
