Chapter 969: Chapter 976: Extras (3)
"I’m going on a date, what are you doing?" Xie Qinghuan frowned.
Yan Jiu glanced at her nonchalantly and lit a cigarette: "We’ve slept together so many times, I figured I should at least help you vet your dates. Otherwise, if you find someone unworthy, it would be embarrassing for me too."
Xie Qinghuan chuckled: "Your logic is quite amusing. In Jiang City, there are at least eight hundred women you’ve slept with. Are you going to vet all of them like this?"
Yan Jiu slowly stood up, took a couple of hard drags from the cigarette he’d just lit, then casually draped the suit from the sofa over one shoulder.
Approaching Xie Qinghuan slowly, he lifted her chin and teasingly brushed her lips with his thumb, saying ambiguously, "You know I’m always different when it comes to you."
Xie Qinghuan was slightly stunned, not expecting him to say such a thing.
But before she could respond, he had already let go of her and turned to leave.
The door closed with a ’bang,’ pulling her back to her thoughts.
Looking at the tightly closed door, she returned to the sofa, watching the changing figures on the TV, her mind a bit complicated.
She was very aware of who Yan Yiheng was.
Over the years, many wealthy heirs and rich second-generation men had pursued her, but she always managed to skillfully extricate herself, never letting them take advantage.
Unfortunately, those tactics don’t seem to work well on this man.
Calculating the days, it seems she’s been sleeping with him for almost a year.
Originally, she thought a year or more would be enough to satisfy his curiosity, then just like in dramas and novels, he’d write a huge check with flair and let her exit his world.
But as the days went by, her cautiously guarded heart gradually grew accustomed to his presence.
She couldn’t help but wonder if he might stay for her.
If they could be like every other couple, getting married, having children, buying groceries and cooking meals.
But who is he? He’s the famous Yan Jiu of Jiang City.
How could he possibly want to live a peaceful life?
She didn’t want this to continue; every time he came to her, she felt like a permanent mistress.
Actually, being a mistress wasn’t such a bad thing, especially when the man is as delightful and influential as him, hard to find another like him in the world.
The problem is, when she started to desire more. It seemed destined she would end up like all the other women.
But who is she?
She is Xie Qinghuan!
She wouldn’t let herself end up in such a sorry state; rather than wait to be dumped, she preferred to pull out early.
After all, over more than a year, whatever he wanted from her, he’d already gotten. So if she decided to end this relationship, he probably wouldn’t be too displeased, considering he is the game’s winner.
...
The next day.
Humming a tune, Xie Qinghuan chose an orange dress, pinning up her hair to reveal her long, snow-white neck.
After doing her makeup, she grabbed her purse and headed downstairs. Today she’s meeting a CEO who’s four years older than her with a decent family background. Most importantly, he’s been pursuing her for four years—in the beginning, he was a returnee from overseas.
After their chance encounter, he kept pursuing her in a lukewarm and consistent manner. What she appreciated about him was that he wasn’t as sleazy as most suitors. Whenever she needed help, he’d show up just at the right time.
So if she was considering marriage now, this man was actually a suitable candidate.
He’s considered one of her suitors that she feels fairly satisfied with and quite fond of.
