72: Chapter 72: Plaything!

Xu Qianli made her demands without any courtesy.

Xu Shuman didn’t want to pay back the money, nor did she want to lose her job.

Fine, she could just become Xu Qianli’s plaything.

Although her personality wasn’t great, her figure and face were top-notch, she was excellent in bed, and she had great stamina.

For Xu Qianli, she was the perfect match in bed, and therefore an excellent bed partner.

Moreover, Xu Qianli had a dominant streak and a strong desire to possess.

The mere thought of the woman he had doted on for three years possibly falling into the hands of another man irritated him inexplicably.

Now, facing Xu Shuman head-on, Xu Qianli waited for her response.

Hearing the conditions Xu Qianli had laid out, Xu Shuman first froze, then a mix of shame and anger washed over her, and she glared at Xu Qianli furiously.

“You, what do you take me for?”

“I may have wronged you by breaking up with you during your career’s low point, but does that give you the right to disgust me like this?”

“You want me to be your plaything, what do you think I am?”

“Even if I’m Xu Shuman, a decent girl from a decent family, I’ve only been with you, a man, throughout my life, and I’ve slept with you for three years.

Isn’t there any affection left, how could you treat me like this?”

“Xu Qianli, you owe me an apology, you must apologize to me!”

Xu Shuman rebuked Xu Qianli fiercely; the nerve of this guy, demanding she become his plaything.

On what grounds, just because she had wronged him?

Xu Qianli couldn’t be bothered to argue with Xu Shuman and simply said, “If you’re unwilling, let it be.

Just pay me back my money quickly!

If there is nothing else, I’m leaving.”

With that, Xu Qianli was about to leave.

“Don’t go, you can’t leave!”

Xu Shuman suddenly grabbed Xu Qianli, trying to stop him.

“I really don’t have any money, and I’ve lost my job now.

If you insist on me paying you back, aren’t you driving me to death?”

“Do you really want to see me die?”

At that, Xu Qianli shook off Xu Shuman’s hand.

“You’d seek death?”

“Don’t freaking joke!”

“You’re so utilitarian.

You could kick away a boyfriend who loved and pampered you for three years without a second thought when he fell on hard times.

Your primary consideration in life must be gains and losses.”

“For someone like you, would your own life be worth less than five hundred thousand?”

“You claim your mom, Li Qiuyue, that old shrew might seek death, I wouldn’t believe you would seek death!”

Xu Qianli’s words left Xu Shuman speechless.

Yeah, she wouldn’t seek death.

It was just a bluff to scare Xu Qianli, but unfortunately, it seemed to have utterly failed.

She couldn’t scare him at all.

She wanted to cry but couldn’t, knowing that tears would be useless, for Xu Qianli wouldn’t feel the slightest pity.

This man, wounded by her, had become heartless.

Looking at Xu Qianli and thinking about her current situation, Xu Shuman took a deep breath, clenched her teeth, and said, “I agree!”

Xu Qianli was about to leave, but on hearing her words, he paused and turned around, “What did you just say, you agree?”

Xu Shuman nodded.

“That’s right, I agree!”

“But I have conditions, you must agree to all of them!”

Xu Qianli said, “Let’s hear it.”

“First, I want you to help me keep my job, to maintain my status as the mainstay of our county’s dance troupe.”

“Second, you’re not allowed to pursue that five hundred thousand from me, and you must help me deal with my brother, transfer his apartment to my name.

They think they can drain me and then kick me to the curb; I won’t let that happen!”

“Third, I want a child.

As a woman, I can be with you.

You don’t have to marry me, but you must give me a child, for my security when I’m old.”

“Fourth, if anyone bullies me in the future, you have to stand up for me!”

Xu Shuman laid out her terms with utmost calm.

She was very clear about her current situation.

If she really refused Xu Qianli, not only would she be burdened with a huge debt of five hundred thousand, but she would also lose her job, and there would never be anything between her and Xu Qianli again.

Might as well just agree.

After all, it wasn’t as if she hadn’t been with Xu Qianli before.

Her purity was his to begin with, and she had been with him for three years, having done all manner of intimate things.

Staying with him a little while longer wouldn’t matter.

Hearing this, Xu Qianli couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Just now you were righteously rejecting me, claiming you were a decent girl from a good family, not that kind of woman.”

“And now look at you, coming up with all these conditions.

Impressive, I must say.”

“Don’t look so displeased; I’m not mocking you.

I’m actually complimenting you.

You’re one of the most formidable women I’ve met, being so quick to calculate your gains and losses.”

“Four conditions, huh?

I agree to the first one.

However, the dance troupe has always favored the young.

You’re young now, but in a couple of years you’ll be replaced by newcomers and won’t make much money anyway.

So just quit dancing and resign.

I’ll invest in a shop for you in the county, and you can be the proprietress.”

“Second condition, you’re ruthless, even towards your own family.

But since they wronged you first, and the money for the house is indeed yours, I’ll lend you a hand to get the house.

Just remember, by doing this, you’ll be burning bridges with your parents and brother.

Think it over carefully.”

“Fourth condition, though you’re merely my plaything, you’re still my woman.

As long as you’re not causing trouble on purpose to provoke retaliation, I’ll take care of any other issues for you.”

“As for the third, I can agree to that too, but it has to be ten years from now.

You know the specific reasons.

You better forget about getting pregnant with my child quickly to pressure me into getting back together or even marrying you!”

Xu Qianli awaited Xu Shuman’s response.

“I agree!” Xu Shuman did not hesitate to accept.

She wiped her cheek, squeezing out a smile toward Xu Qianli, “So what should I call you now?

Dear, husband, or should it be master or boss?”

Xu Qianli said, “Call me whatever you like, I don’t care.

But in front of others, you must keep your distance and not act overly familiar.

I don’t want my girlfriend to be upset because of you.”

“Girlfriend?”

Xu Shuman’s ears perked up.

“It’s only been a few days since we broke up, and you already have a girlfriend?”

“You’ve arranged blind dates, haven’t you?

So I can’t have a girlfriend?”

“Let me tell you, I not only have a girlfriend, but two, and each is more beautiful and better-natured than you.”

“Forget it, I don’t want to talk about this anymore.

Turn around and lie down on the bed!”

“Even though you have a terrible personality, your body is top-notch.

I’ve missed it after not touching you for a few days.”

Xu Qianli spoke with an undeniable authority.

Xu Shuman’s pretty face flushed suddenly, she looked around and whispered, “This is a hospital ward, are you saying you want me right here?

If you want me, let’s go home and talk about it.

Once we’re home, I’ll do whatever you want.”

Xu Qianli’s eyes widened with a stern voice, “I told you to turn around and lie down; just obey and don’t talk back.

Hurry up!”

Xu Qianli was too domineering, Xu Shuman had never seen such a tyrannical side of him before.

When she had been with Xu Qianli before, he was so gentle to her.

Now, he was so overbearing; it was frightening.

Hesitating for a moment, Xu Shuman obediently turned around, her back to Xu Qianli, and lay down on the hospital bed, thoughtfully lifting her skirt to her waist.

“Master, come on.”

“Mmm…”
