Chapter 16: Breakup Fee Becomes a Betrothal Gift



In Yujingwan, there are actually people who dare to make such a noise?

The doubts in his heart prompted Chen Mengchu to quicken his pace and go downstairs.

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw Lu Jingxiao confronting a woman.

The woman's questioning and Lu Jingxiao's defense made Chen Mengchu step forward.

"Are you up?" Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu, his tone full of tenderness.

The woman looked at this scene and couldn't help but say, "You've never spoken to me like that."

Chen Mengchu looked at the person in front of him. She was wearing a dark green cheongsam, with green jewelry earrings designed by Aiko on her earlobes and a pearl necklace around her neck. She looked luxurious in every move.

This person is... Lu Jingxiao's mother.

Don't ask her why she knows this. The question is, apart from this reason, would anyone else dare to make such a fuss here?

And... Lu Jingxiao looks a lot like Su Manwen.

Even though she had already guessed it, Chen Mengchu still asked politely, "This must be my aunt."

Lu Jingxiao nodded, "Yes."

"Are you the 'scandalous' wife?" Su Manwen asked Chen Mengchu, emphasizing the word "scandal".

"Aunt, I..."

Chen Mengchu wanted to explain something, but was interrupted by Su Manwen before she could finish her words.

"I don't want to hear your explanation. Just tell me, yes or no." Su Manwen's tone was very firm. She didn't allow her to explain at all. She only wanted the result, not the process.

Looking at her strong look, Shen Mengchu also understood.

Judging from her expression, she probably wouldn't agree with her being with Lu Jingxiao.

Thinking of this, Chen Mengchu had a better idea.

"Yes." Chen Mengchu nodded in acknowledgement.

With Su Manwen's opposition, she could leave Lu Jingxiao.

Thinking of this, Chen Mengchu's mouth curled up into an imperceptible arc.

"Come with me." Su Manwen planned to take Chen Mengchu out to talk. It was not very convenient here, not to mention that there was this brat around, so what could be discussed?

Although Lu Jingxiao didn't say anything, he followed.

He had just taken a step when he was discovered by Su Manwen.

"You are not allowed to follow." Su Manwen's words were not a negotiation but an order.

"impossible."

How could she possibly talk to Shen Mengchu properly when she was like this? What if she was bullied?

"What? Can I eat her?" Su Manwen shouted harshly.

"That's hard to say." Lu Jingxiao said in a deep voice.

"Lu Jingxiao."

Seeing the two people's posture, Chen Mengchu hurried forward to persuade them.

If we really get into a fight, it will be all over and all my plans will be wasted.

"I'm fine. Auntie won't make things difficult for me."

Chen Meng Chuan supported Lu Jingxiao and told him not to worry too much.

"Don't worry." Chen Mengchu patted Lu Jingxiao's wrist to signal him not to stop.

Looking at Chen Mengchu's appearance, Lu Jingxiao nodded.

"Aunt, let's go."

Chen Mengchu followed Su Manwen out of the villa.

——————

In the coffee shop.

"I heard that the two children are Jing Xiao's?" Su Manwen asked tentatively but with certainty.

Chen Mengchu nodded and shook his head.

"What does this mean?" Su Manwen's voice sounded somewhat displeased.

"It can be and it can't be." Chen Mengchu's words were ambiguous.

Seeing Su Manwen frowning, Chen Mengchu explained again.

"If Ajing recognizes the child, then it's his. If he doesn't..."

She didn't finish her words, but her meaning was obvious.

"You are the girl from six years ago." Su Manwen said with certainty.

"yes."

Chen Mengchu nodded.

"Aunt, I actually like Ajing very much. I hope you don't object." Chen Mengchu said sincerely, hoping that she would agree.

"Even though I'm not good and I don't know if the child is Jing's, I will give birth to another one for him."

Chen Mengchu spoke excitedly, with tears flashing in his eyes, just to make the story more realistic.

She guessed that Lu Jingxiao must not have shown the identification results to Su Manwen yet, otherwise she would have come to the villa.

Since she hadn't seen it, Su Manwen would definitely not agree to Lu Jingxiao keeping her in the villa after she said that.

There are some things that rich people like them hate the most. She must be disgusted with herself when she said that, but... it's unfair to these two little guys.

"Are you serious?" Su Manwen asked with some disbelief.

"Do you like Jing Xiao or his money?"

"Aunt, do you want me to tell the truth?" Chen Mengchu asked her, wanting to hear the truth or a false and hypocritical lie.

"truth."

"I like Ajing, but I like her money more!"

"Oh, I accidentally told the truth. I hope Auntie won't be angry."

Looking at Su Manwen's changed expression, Chen Mengchu curled the corners of his lips.

"Aunt, I promise I will love Ajing?"

"Really?" Su Manwen asked back with a serious face.

Chen Mengchu nodded seriously, "Really."

"Okay." Su Manwen uttered a word.

Then he pulled a check from his bag.

"Fill in as you like." Looking at this scene, Chen Mengchu smiled with satisfaction. It was done.

She was no longer afraid of Lu Jingxiao forcing her.

"Auntie, what's this?" Although Chen Mengchu understood, she pretended not to understand anything and asked her.

"Dowry." Su Manwen said with a smile.

"good."

Chen Mengchu responded casually.

As soon as I agreed, I felt something was wrong.

"Aunt, what did you say this was?" Chen Mengchu comforted herself that she must have heard it wrong.

"Dowry." Su Manwen repeated.

“Bet…Bet…Bet…Bet gift!!!”

Shouldn't it be a breakup fee?"

Chen Mengchu asked Su Manwen in disbelief.

How did it become a breakup fee?

It shouldn't.

"What breakup fee? This brat finally has a wife, how can I break them up?" Su Manwen said, her brows full of love and concern.

"But the child..."

"The child is not important, and besides, didn't you say you would have another one?" Su Manwen continued with what Chen Mengchu said.

"So you like money?"

"The last thing he lacks is money. It will all be yours in the future."

Chen Mengchu: “????”

Why is it different from what she thought?

Shouldn't Su Manwen disagree, so she pretended to beg, and then she gave some breakup fees?

How did it become a betrothal gift?

Who can tell her what is going on?

"Xiaochu, your aunt likes you very much, and I like those two children too." Su Manwen said, her love for Chen Mengchu could not be hidden in her eyes.

But acting out this scene just now was really a bit difficult for her.

"Thank you, no... Auntie..."

"It's settled. This is the betrothal gift, remember to keep it safe." Su Manwen pushed the check in front of Chen Mengchu.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Before Chen Mengchu could react, Su Manwen had already left the cafe.

By the time she reacted, Su Manwen was gone.
