CHAPTER 868: CHAPTER 578: LADEN WITH DESOLATION, BRIEF WORDS LONG FEELINGS (PART 4)

"..."

Yang Su’s fingers tightened, feeling as if her heart had been grabbed harshly by something, a bit itchy and a bit painful!

Then, pretending not to care, she said "Oh," and opened her mouth, "Well... congratulations on being single again!"

Chang Linsheng squinted his eyes, smiling faintly, "Thank you!"

Yang Su: "..."

Not really sure what to say next!

"The tea is going to cool down, you can drink it now!"

"...Oh!"

As Yang Su picked up the cup, she suddenly felt like she was being really silly.

"Girl!"

Chang Linsheng suddenly called out to her.

"Hmm?" Yang Su responded instinctively while sipping the water!

"I’m single now, do you want to... start pursuing me again?"

"Ah? Cough cough cough... cough... cough..."

Chang Linsheng’s words triggered her, causing Yang Su to choke on her drink and start coughing violently!

Chang Linsheng quickly placed her cup on the coffee table, patting her back and handing her a handkerchief from his pocket!

"How can you be so clumsy, even getting choked on a sip of water!"

Yang Su: "..."

Geez, who caused her to choke? And he still dares to comment!

The man’s warm hand was on her back. Just now, because she felt hot, she had taken off her down jacket, leaving only a loose sweater on.

He patted her in a way that felt like he was embracing her, and he was very close, almost at her ear when he spoke!

Yang Su’s whole face, already red from coughing, was even redder at this moment!

When she finally caught her breath, she pushed him away, trying to create some distance. Her palm touched the man’s chest, and she froze for a moment, quickly withdrawing!

Raising her head, her moist eyes unexpectedly met his gaze, breathing in tandem, so close, so close!

Yang Su was stunned, too scared to move!

"Girl, are you trying to seduce me?" A few seconds later, Chang Linsheng suddenly spoke.

Yang Su: "..."

She blinked, quickly retreating, "No!!"

Chang Linsheng just curled his lips without replying!

"Absolutely not!" Yang Su, fearing he wouldn’t believe it, emphasized again!

"Mm, I believe you!" Chang Linsheng finally spoke, his tone indifferent, "But I wouldn’t mind seducing you!"

"..."

What is all this? Yang Su’s worldview was tangled and confused!

Taking a deep breath, Yang Su said, "Mr. Chang, I think it’s necessary to explain something to you. Yes, I once foolishly liked you, but now, I don’t anymore! So could you..."

"Oh..." Chang Linsheng nodded thoughtfully, "Don’t worry, I never force anyone! But Susu, I am now your creditor, right?"

Yang Su: "..."

Resignedly nodding.

...But this is definitely not of her own will!

He chuckled, satisfied with her response, and asked, "So, how do you plan to repay the debt?"

Yang Su: "..."

A soft cough, "How I repay is none of your business, I will pay you back anyway!"

"But you’re not from H City, I feel a bit uneasy..."

"Why uneasy about me?" Yang Su felt her character was being questioned, very annoyed, "It’s only seventy thousand yuan, I will pay you back soon!"

"Borrow from friends? Or ask your parents? Susu, don’t bother others, if you’re really short on cash, we can find an alternative way to repay!"

An alternative... way... to repay?

Yang Su immediately crossed her arms, "Hey, Chang Linsheng, I’m warning you, don’t think about coercing me, I... I absolutely won’t accept... compensation through... body parts!"

"Compensation through body parts?" Chang Linsheng frowned at her, "Girl, with such a young age, what are you thinking in that head of yours?"

Yang Su: "Well, whatever it is, it’s not about you!"

Chang Linsheng: "..."

Fine, communicating with a 90s kid, he’s having a bit of a hard time keeping up!

"What I meant is, you could work for me. As it happens, my apartment needs a nanny..."

"Nanny?" Yang Su coughed lightly, then shook her head vigorously, "No! I object! I absolutely will not be your nanny! Absolutely not!"

"One day equals ten thousand, seven days clear the debt..."

Yang Su: "..."

Chang Linsheng looked at her, "How about it? I think this rate should be quite favorable for you!"

"..."

Yang Su blinked, ten thousand a day, even Filipina maids don’t reach this rate!

Geez! The rich really are willful!

"Still no!" Yang Su said, for once, with a lot of backbone, "I’m a young single woman, living in a single man’s home? Absolutely not!"

"This apartment is closed off and private, anyone coming in must be meticulously screened. The residents here are all people with status and identity; no one will mind others’ business! To be honest, I have lived here for over six months, and I haven’t even worked out if my neighbors are male or female! Plus..." he paused and then continued, "Plus... to my knowledge, for some reason, you should be staying in H City for a while, and the rent at your current place is just about to expire..."

Yang Su’s eyes flickered, "I... I can stay at Xiaobai’s apartment!"

"Unmarried couples living together, you want to crash with them? Can’t read the room?"

Yang Su: "..."

"I have a guest room here that you can borrow! During the day, I have to work, and I’ll return at night. You just need to handle cleaning, making breakfast and dinner, and I’ll give you pocket money to buy groceries and daily necessities, without interfering in your private life. During the day, once you complete your tasks, whatever you do, I won’t care, just as long as dinner is ready by the time I’m off work... How about it? Isn’t it a good deal?"

"A bargain is never good! You clearly have ulterior motives!"

Chang Linsheng smiled placidly, "If I’m not afraid of your ulterior motives, what are you afraid of?"

Yang Su: "..."

"Think about it properly, or you could first stay at Bai Yuchuan’s place for a day, see if it’s inconvenient, and then contact me once you’ve decided!"

After saying this, Chang Linsheng stood up, reaching out to pull her. Yang Su froze, "What are you doing?"

"Taking you to see your room!"

"..." Geez, she hasn’t even agreed yet!

...

The room was more spacious and comfortable than Yang Su had imagined and was very clean. Unlike the living room, the color scheme here was noticeably warmer, faintly feeling a bit... like a girl’s chamber!

There was even a doll on the bed!

Yang Su: "..."

"Do you like it?" Chang Linsheng asked.

Yang Su looked at him, asking, "Whose room is this?"

Chang Linsheng coughed lightly, "My sister’s, but she rarely comes to H City! She’s always with Grandpa!"

"Oh!"

Yang Su clearly believed him, and she really did like the room.

She reached out and touched the bed; it was very soft, tempting you to just lie down and take a nap!

What to do, Yang Su’s unaspiring heart was moved ＱＴＱ...

Just at that moment, a dull ringtone came from the living room; it was Yang Su’s phone!

"I’ll go take the call..."

Yang Su turned, saying, and walked past Chang Linsheng!

The man’s thin lips moved; the woman’s hair gently floated, carrying a fragrance that lingered in his breath!
