"What do you mean?"
Wan Ge met his gaze, her eyes showing no sign of backing down: "I don't care how you and Xu Muya get entangled, because I don't care at all. It doesn't matter what you two do. To me, you're just a tool for a business marriage, and not even a very useful one at that."
In fact, the Duan family didn't need a business marriage. It was just that Wan Ge was being pressured by her grandmother to get married, so she felt that it was better to find someone with benefits than just marrying anyone. The Nan family was only just about to reach that point.
But unexpectedly, Nan Jinghe, who had just reached the threshold, was chosen by his grandmother at first glance based on his photo.
The reason Wan Ge could tolerate it before was because Nan Jinghe and Xu Muya's relationship wasn't public. So even though she was unhappy, she turned a blind eye because of the vested interests involved.
But the other party insisted on making it public, seemingly trampling on her dignity, so Wan Ge naturally had no reason to continue to tolerate it.
"So that's how it is." Nan Jinghe gave a self-deprecating smile. He thought she loved him, loved him enough to tolerate him being with other women, loved him enough to understand and accept everything about him.
Little did he know that he was the laughingstock; the other person didn't love him at all, but rather showed indifference and disdain.
"So I misunderstood." Nan Jinghe lowered his head and left dejectedly.
Chu Ji looked at Wan Ge in front of him again and asked, "So, is my marriage with you also a business arrangement? Am I also one of your choices?"
Wan Ge patted his head: "How could our marriage be a business arrangement? We grew up together, there must be feelings between us."
Moreover, Wan Ge felt that she really liked Chu Ji. Before, she only regarded him as a younger brother, but now it was different. Now she really regarded him as her lover.
Moreover, they felt they knew each other well, had excellent conditions in all aspects, and the Chu family was not even in the same league as the Nan family.
The Chu family is the one that can truly elevate the Duan family to new heights. Of course, Wan Ge doesn't intend to do that, since she's already very strong and capable as she is now.
She didn't dare to think about how tired she would be if the company reached another level, so even after deciding to get married, there was no business dealings between them.
Moreover, Wan Ge wanted to take responsibility for him and liked him, so she didn't want too much involvement of interests, lest he think she was only after his own interests.
Chu Ji and Nan Jinghe are ultimately incomparable.
…
Upon hearing her words, Chu Ji instantly broke into a happy smile, but when his gaze fell on the box on the ground, his expression immediately fell: "The food I brought for my sister has all spilled."
Wan Ge patted his head and replied, "It's okay. Since it's already spilled, let's not bother with it. I'll take you out to eat."
"Okay." Chu Ji nodded, but when his gaze fell on the lunchbox on the ground, sadness still lingered in his eyes.
Wan Ge knew that the other person was upset because the food in the lunchbox was something he had carefully prepared for him. Now that it was all spilled on the floor, of course he would be upset.
Wan Ge didn't know how to comfort him, so she made an excuse to have a meal and went out to see if there was anything she could do to cheer him up.
…
Fifteen minutes later, Wan Ge led the other person into a private room, and then subconsciously handed the menu to the other person: "Take a look and see what you want to eat. Today it's my treat, so you can have whatever you want."
Chu Ji didn't look at the menu, but instead focused his gaze on Wan Ge, asking her, "Can I have anything? Can I have my sister too?"
Wan Ge looked at him, their eyes meeting without any hesitation: "Okay, but not now."
Chu Ji blushed instantly upon hearing her reply.
Wan Ge smiled; her little brother was really too cute.
…
After leaving Wan Ge's place, Nan Jinghe returned to Xu Muya's residence. He stood not far away and saw Xu Muya waving goodbye to a man with a big smile on her face. The man was driving a car worth over a million yuan, had an average appearance, and was probably in his thirties.
When Xu Muya arrived at her doorstep, she saw Nan Jinghe there.
"Don't you have anything to explain to me?" Nan Jinghe looked at the person in front of him.
Xu Muya replied indifferently, "What's there to explain? Didn't you see it all?"
"Xu Muya, how could you be such a person?"
Xu Muya found it somewhat amusing: "Didn't you already know what kind of person I am?"
"I've fallen to this state because of you, how could you treat me like this?"
Xu Muya walked straight into the house, casually put her bag aside, and started smoking in front of the other person without any restraint: "Don't you know whether it's for me or for yourself? You wanted to use me to test Duan Wange's bottom line, but you went too far, and now you want to blame me?"
Because he offended Duan Wange, now everyone knows about her affair with Nan Jinghe. Also, because he offended the Duan family, all the men who used to be in contact with her have disappeared.
Therefore, the men Xu Muya is dating now are far inferior to those she dated before.
Now that Nan Jinghe has lost his status as heir, has no money or house, and still has to live in her house, she is naturally dissatisfied.
"How did you know?" Nan Jinghe blurted out.
In fact, he was very satisfied with Wan Ge. He was amazed by her beauty when they first met.
But their marriage was a business arrangement. Even though everyone said she was special to him and that Wan Ge liked him very much, he just didn't believe it, so he found another woman to provoke her.
He never intended to have any real relationship with Xu Muya, but he drank too much that day and accidentally they ended up having sex.
At that time, he thought that Wan Ge would definitely forgive him, and sure enough, she was not angry.
But then he began to doubt whether she loved him too much or simply didn't care.
So he began to test her limits until he completely crossed the line.
Only now did he realize that his initial feeling was correct. Even though everyone said she loved him very much, and even though he thought so in his heart, something just didn't feel right.
Xu Muya looked at Nan Jinghe in front of her, not wanting to argue with him or do anything.
He took out a key: "I rented a house for you in Ju'an Community. I've already paid a year's rent. You can go there from now on. You took advantage of me. After all, my situation isn't much better than yours. I've already done more than enough by paying a year's rent for you."
She was willing to do anything for money, and originally intended to just abandon him. But seeing all the designer bags he bought for her, and the fact that her phone balance was less than what she had, she ended up renting him a place for a year.
