Why would this person ask for money to save his life after saying "You're welcome"?
"Mr. Ye, are you short of money?" Lu Qingyan asked. Seeing that this man could get his hands on such a rare item as a gun, he didn't seem to be short of money.
Ye Li nodded: "Yes, we are a little short of money."
How am I supposed to respond to that? Lu Qingyan's smile froze for a moment, then she asked, "Mr. Ye, how much do you think would be a suitable offer from me?"
"Hmm?" He pretended to think for a moment before saying, "Not much, just over a hundred yuan."
"Miss, this person is going too far," Xiao Zao said angrily in Lu Qingyan's ear, but she didn't dare to say it loudly, so she could only whisper it in Lu Qingyan's ear.
Lu Qingyan knew the prices; a rickshaw only earns a dozen yuan a month, yet this man asked her for so much right off the bat.
If it were anyone else, Lu Qingyan might not have bothered with him, but since it was the person in front of her, she obediently gave him a hundred yuan.
"Miss!" Xiao Zao stomped her foot angrily from the side: "Our money doesn't grow on trees, why should he get off so cheaply? He just helped you up, so he actually took advantage of you."
As she spoke, Xiaozhao blushed with embarrassment.
Ye Li is good-looking, but his personality is really unlikable. Xiao Zhao might have a good impression of him at first glance, but after saying a few words, she would only feel disgust.
Compared to so many people, Xiaozhao finds herself increasingly missing the elegant and charming Lu Qingfan.
Ye Li's people went after the thief and returned the item not long after. Lu Qingyan was about to give him the money and then part ways when the owner of the lost item walked up to Ye Li with a flushed face.
As she spoke, her eyes kept glancing at Ye Li: "Sir, thank you very much for earlier."
Ye Li shook his head and pointed to the subordinate standing beside him: "You don't need to say that to me. It wasn't me who went to help you just now, but this guy."
"Anyway, I should still thank you. If it weren't for you, he probably wouldn't have stepped in. I wonder if I could invite you to dinner? Don't misunderstand, I just wanted to thank you." But judging from her expression, it was clear that it wasn't just a simple thank you.
Her words only made it seem like she was trying to cover something up.
“That won’t do,” Ye Li refused. He glanced at Lu Qingyan with a half-smile and pulled her in as well: “My fiancée will be jealous if I go to dinner with you.”
The woman's face immediately turned ugly. She glanced cautiously at Lu Qingyan, then picked up her bag and left.
In front of that woman, Lu Qingyan didn't expose Ye Li, but once the woman was far away, Lu Qingyan's expression immediately changed. She looked coldly at the cynical man in front of her, a sarcastic smile on her lips: "How come you didn't know that I had become your fiancée?"
"It's just a favor, why are you being so stingy?" Ye Li stretched.
"Since you want me to play your fiancée, shouldn't you give me some performance fee?"
"!" Upon hearing this, it felt like his own trick had come back. Ye Li looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and realized for the first time that there was someone in this world who could make him feel interesting.
Instead of getting angry, he laughed and asked, "How much do you want?"
"I don't want much, just a hundred yuan, then we're even."
