Chapter 139: Money but no love



Chen Can and Zhu Tingyue looked at each other and remained silent.

Chen Yanqiu's sarcasm was like a sharp sword stabbing at Chen Yanzhen, causing him to tremble with pain on his waist.

He turned his gaze to Chen Can, fearing that she would show a look of disgust as "Zhu Tingyue" said.

Fortunately, she didn't!

Chen Yanzhen calmed down a bit, ignored Chen Yanqiu's provocation, acted like a brother, and said to Zhu Tingyue: "Remember to go home for dinner tonight."

Being ignored, Chen Yanqiu was even more dissatisfied: "Go home for dinner? Can you still sit down?"

He glanced smugly at the hand on Shen Yanzhen's waist, his contempt obvious.

Zhu Tingyue and Chen Can remained silent.

Chen Yanzhen couldn't argue with him. In his impression, Zhu Tingyue wasn't so arrogant and domineering? How come her temper had worsened after not seeing her for a while?

Seeing that Chen Yanzhen was speechless because of his retort, Chen Yanqiu smiled, pulled Zhu Tingyue over, and entered the elevator first.

He even asked kindly, "Let's go down together. If you wait any longer, you won't be able to stand!"

Chen Yanzhen didn't even look at him and said coldly: "No need!"

His words were shut out by the elevator door, and Shen Yanqiu had no intention of waiting for him.

Chen Yanzhen looked at the two figures reflected in the elevator door and said in a wronged tone, "Cancan, you won't help me!"

Chen Can felt a toothache from the name he had called her all night, and stopped him loudly: "Don't call me that!"

Chen Yanzhen looked at her and asked, "Change it? That's Chen Chen? Dear? Girlfriend? Wife?"

These names were more disgusting than the last, and Chen Can couldn't bear to listen any more: "Chen Yanzhen, how did you become so disgusting? Can't you learn from Chen Yanqiu? Look how cool he is!"

Hearing her mention the other man's name, Chen Yanzhen couldn't help but feel sad: "He is aloof? Is he that good?"

Chen Can didn't even raise his head: "Yeah, that's true! At least he's in good health!"

Chen Yanzhen: “…”

"I...I'm just not ready today. Another day, no, tomorrow, I can definitely be on top!"

He was eager to prove himself, but the result was the opposite of what he expected.

Chen Can didn't listen to the explanation and said directly: "No need, you can prepare first, don't come to me during this period, I will transfer the money to you."

Chen Yanzhen became even more anxious, holding Chen Can's hand tightly: "Don't be like this, I will work hard to exercise! You can't look for another man, I listen to you, please don't leave me, okay?"

"We just had sex once, we didn't get married, why are you making so much fuss about it? Isn't it enough for everyone to be happy about this kind of thing?"

"Do you think the money I give you is too little? Don't worry, I'll give you as much as you want!"

Chen Can pulled out a card from her bag and stuffed it into Shen Yanzhen's hand, her eyes cold enough to freeze someone to death.

Chen Yanzhen only felt that his originally burning heart was as if being poured with buckets of ice water one after another.

As she spoke those ruthless words, the temperature was dropping little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief. The girl who had once been so moved by him and willing to give everything for him was now speaking such decisive words to him in such a cold tone.

Every word was like a sharp dagger, piercing his heart mercilessly and then stirring it violently, making him feel like dying.

And his heart, in this endless pain, gradually lost its original warmth and became extremely cold.

"What's wrong? Don't want it? Chen Yanzhen, if you want love, go find it in someone else! I only have transactions here, do you understand?"

Chen Can was still talking, but Shen Yanzhen could no longer hear anything!

Chen Can said it very clearly, this is a deal!

It doesn’t matter whether he wants the money or not, as long as he doesn’t bother her.

Love, she won't give!

Chen Yanzhen didn't know what he felt. Did she feel the same way when he rejected her before?

"I regret it!"

As soon as the elevator door closed, Chen Yanqiu fell into Zhu Tingyue's arms.

Zhu Tingyue didn't understand his behavior at all: "Why are you trying to be so stubborn?"

Chen Yanqiu was stubborn and refused to admit: "I'm not trying to be brave, I'm just in better shape than him!"

Zhu Tingyue was helpless: "Okay, okay, you are in good health, come, lean on me."

Chen Yanqiu leaned on Zhu Tingyue's shoulder and suddenly asked her: "If I were as weak as Chen Yanzhen, would you still like me?"

Zhu Tingyue didn't fall for it: "Why compete with him? You are the best!"

Chen Yanqiu didn't let her go: "I just want to compare! Which one do you like better?"

Damn men’s desire to win!

Zhu Tingyue said without hesitation: "You! I only like you! Is there anyone else in the world who I like as much as you?"

Chen Yanqiu was satisfied, and gave Zhu Tingyue a kiss on the face.

Zhu Tingyue breathed a sigh of relief after getting through the crisis without any major incidents.

When they got home, Zhu's mother didn't ask any further questions. She told them not to stay up all night and to go to bed early, then waved goodbye and let them leave.

Even after returning to the room, Zhu Tingyue still couldn't believe it: "Mom really didn't ask?"

Chen Yanqiu was extremely sleepy in the car and was also confused at this moment.

"Well, I didn't ask."

Zhu Tingyue pushed the person into the bed and lay down herself.

Accompanied by the sound of Chen Yanqiu's heavy breathing, he gradually fell asleep.

During the entire Chinese New Year period, Zhu Tingyue only showed up at the Shen family twice, and spent the rest of the time at the Zhu family accompanying his parents and Shen Yanqiu.

As the current "Zhu Tingyue", Chen Yanqiu did not attend various cocktail parties and dinners like in previous years.

After the New Year, Zhu Tingyue was busy again.

Chen Yingchu has completely given up, and the entire Baisi Group now follows Zhu Tingyue's lead.

Although she doesn't have many shares, she is decisive in her words and deeds, and has achieved outstanding results. Her strength is truly convincing.

Chen Yanqiu's belly was getting bigger and bigger, so Zhu Tingyue tried her best to make time to spend with him.

Chen Yanqiu was bored at home, and Zhu's mother kept a close eye on his every word and action, and the closer it got to the end of the time, the more closely she watched him.

Zhu Tingyue was not at home, and he had no one to talk to, so he could only walk around the yard holding Jiuyue.

But lately, even September isn’t seen often!

Chen Yanqiu watched too many videos related to childbirth, which gave rise to a lot of belated anxiety.

But no one could tell him that Zhu Tingyue was a workaholic and took her work more seriously than she did him.

Usually she is already asleep when she gets home from get off work, and goes to work when she wakes up in the morning.

Although they lived under the same roof, they couldn't say anything to each other.

Even during the last prenatal check-up, she was agreed to go with me, but she was called away by a phone call. In the end, it was Zhu's mother who accompanied me.

Chen Yanqiu's anxiety grew day by day, and his attitude towards Zhu Tingyue gradually became colder.

Normally he would send several messages in a morning, but recently he hasn't even sent a greeting.
