Chapter 256 Who else could it be if not Shen Yanci?
"Five hundred thousand a month for sleeping with me, what else are you not satisfied with?"
In the silent night, the man spoke in a calm voice, his body lazily sunk into the sofa, his whole body exuding nonchalance, showing disdain for the woman standing next to the sofa.
Suddenly, Jiang Lili's brain buzzed, and all the grievances in her chest solidified in an instant.
"Five hundred thousand? For sleeping with me?"
Hot tears rolled down her cheeks as she met the man's cold gaze, "Fu Xingchen, I'm marrying you, not selling you..."
Is having money to spend and sleeping with a man what marriage is?
What is the difference between this and the one that is sold? The only difference is that there is an extra piece of paper. Is this a legal marriage transaction?!
Is this what marriage looks like in his eyes?
No, in Fu Xingchen's eyes, she is only worthy of such a marriage!
Three hours ago, Jiang Lili received a surveillance video.
Late in the middle of the night, a sexy woman knocked on the door of the presidential suite in Fu Xingchen's hotel.
He opened the door, walked in with the woman, and didn't come out for three full hours!
This is quite consistent with Fu Xingchen's length. At first, she thought it was just a tool he used to satisfy his sexual desires while on a business trip.
After all, he had great needs in this regard. In the two years since they got married, he had sex with her every night except during her menstrual period.
She found countless reasons to persuade herself to stay calm, there must be a reason!
Today is Fu Xingchen's birthday. She doesn't want to make him unhappy, so she plans to ask him about this tomorrow.
She made a fondant tiger cake by herself and prepared a birthday surprise for him as usual.
In the two years since their marriage, she had arranged their birthdays and wedding anniversaries all by herself with great joy.
She thought he was such an unromantic man until she saw the news that he booked the largest hotel in Jiangcheng to celebrate the birthday of the company's vice president Lin Xiran.
He gave red envelopes to hundreds of thousands of employees in the company just to make Lin Xiran smile.
He also gave Lin Xiran jewelry worth seven figures as a birthday gift in front of countless media cameras.
The limited edition black tie on his neck at this moment was put on him by Lin Xiran himself an hour ago.
A birthday or a piece of surveillance doesn't mean anything respectively.
But what if they are the same person?
Jiang Lili recognized at a glance that Lin Xiran, who was smiling like a flower and looking into Fu Xingchen's eyes affectionately at the birthday party, was the woman who entered his room!
She couldn't bear it any longer, but still held on to a glimmer of hope, maybe...it was all a misunderstanding?
So she just asked cautiously, "Xingchen, why didn't you ever tell me that the vice president of the company who often travels with you is a woman?"
"You don't need to know about work." Fu Xingchen responded coldly.
He drank the hangover soup she made herself and saw the news about Lin Xiran's birthday on her phone without any explanation.
Jiang Lili pursed her lips, mustered up the courage to continue, "Is celebrating the birthday of your female subordinate part of your job?"
Fu Xingchen frowned slightly and looked at her with deep and thoughtful eyes.
His eyes were very deep, as vast as the starry sky, reflecting her thin figure, making her look so weak and tiny.
The unhappiness he radiated could drown her.
"Don't worry about my business. Go pack two pieces of luggage. I have to go on a business trip."
He had a tough attitude and not only did he refuse to talk about the news that he had made another woman a hot topic tonight, he also did not allow Jiang Lili to ask any more questions.
Jiang Lili finally lost control of her temper. "We are husband and wife, why can't I intervene? The millions of jewellery you gave her are our joint property. I have the right to question you about every penny you spent on her!"
"How many millions have I spent on her? Do I still need to ask you for permission? When your Jiang family took away hundreds of millions from me, why didn't you settle the accounts so clearly?"
Fu Xingchen stood up suddenly, his bony face showing a hint of coldness.
Although it was a secret marriage, the Jiang family took advantage of the situation and got a lot of resources from Fu Xingchen after the marriage. Jiang Lili knew this.
But she couldn't understand, "It's different, we are husband and wife! How can she compare with me?"
"You can't compare with her!" The contempt in Fu Xingchen's eyes was like a barbed knife, stabbing into Jiang Lili's heart fiercely, and then pulling it out, "A few million is just a fraction of her performance, how can you compare?"
Her heart was bleeding and rotten.
The look in Fu Xingchen's eyes was the coldest she had ever seen.
It was as if the man who lost control for her in bed and whispered sweet words in her ear was not him.
"She's so nice, why don't you just marry her? Why marry me?" Her eyes were hot and her voice was trembling. "Didn't you marry me because you liked me?"
Jiang Lili's vision gradually blurred and she could only see the man's vague outline.
The man had narrow dark brown eyes, a high nose bridge, thin lips, and a broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted figure wrapped in a black haute couture suit, looking extremely dignified.
She has seen this face every day since her marriage two years ago, but she is moved every time she sees it.
He is handsome, has a good figure, comes from a good family and is capable. Jiang Lili really can't find any flaws in him.
Therefore, when she saw him for the first time and knew that he was the man she had been engaged to since childhood, she inevitably fell in love at first sight.
As for whether Fu Xingchen likes her... Jiang Lili recalled that two years ago, the Jiang family's investment failed miserably, and her father wanted to marry her to the old man for money. It was Fu Xingchen who expressed his willingness to fulfill the marriage contract, so that she could stand here as Mrs. Fu.
So she thought at that time that he liked her too! ?
But now it seems that he likes someone else!
The woman who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the business circle, the business elite that he felt a housewife could not compare to!
But before Jiang Lili married him, she was also a promising interior designer who graduated from a prestigious university!
She gave up her dream for him, agreed to a secret marriage and just be Mrs. Fu who revolved around him!
Fu Xingchen seemed to find her question "Isn't it because you like me?" ridiculous. He drank the sobering soup in one gulp and stood up to go upstairs.
"If you don't like me at all, then let's get divorced!" Jiang Lili closed her eyes and blurted out!
A loveless marriage is not what she wants!
She could tolerate him being an indifferent person, but she couldn't tolerate him being indifferent only to her!
To Fu Xingchen, her hysteria was incomprehensible.
Fu Xingchen warned her: She should be content with 500,000 yuan a month for sleeping with him.
In his eyes...this is not a marriage, it's a transaction!
He didn't even think that the three words "sleeping fee" were excessive, and he criticized her confidently, "Am I wrong? Divorce me, and you expect to return to the Jiang family and become the eldest daughter? Jiang Lili, don't be naive, be more interesting!"
"I have hands and feet, and I can live well even if I don't go back to the Jiang family." Jiang Lili forced herself to hold back her tears, went upstairs before him, dragged out a white suitcase from the corner, and started packing clothes.
