Chapter 596: Pay up What You Owe

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Nangong Qingya could only swallow her grievances.

It was also her first time to such a kinky place. She had intended to buy lingerie to seduce Li Lei with after their date, where she intended to get him drunk. She was still a virgin and was sure that Li Lei would be touched when he realized that fact, then he would take responsibility for his actions. If this plan were to have been successful, there was no doubt that she would snag the position of Li Lei’s wife.

However, she was not given the chance to set this plan in motion.

Now, there was no way that she could tell everyone about her original plan. She became increasingly flustered from her father’s berating, but could only lower her head without saying a word.

Nangong Bohai took her silence as sheepishness. He didn’t expect his daughter to be such a ****, and to be thinking of throwing herself at Second Young Master Li despite already going on blind dates with him. Was her innocence at home all an act? If this were the case, he was wasting all his efforts and resources in trying to make her marriage to Second Young Master Li happen.

“Since Miss Nangong has been to that kind of place, how can she marry into the Li Family?” Li Lei sneered.

Nangong Bohai was immensely disappointed with his daughter but had to defend her in front of his prime son-in-law candidate. “Second Young Master Li, you seem to be applying a double-standard here. You just said that Ye Xingling is worthy of marrying into your family, but Ye Xingling also went to that kind of place. She met Qingya in the lingerie shop.”

Li Lei casually smoothed Xia Ling’s long hair and said, “Xiao Ling was buying lingerie to wear them in front of me. Don’t tell me that Miss Nangong was also buying them for me? We aren’t that close.”

“I... ” Nangong Qingya didn’t know if she should say “Yes” or “No” to Li Lei’s question. If she said “Yes,” it would seem that she was being too scheming and eager. If she said “No,” it seemed that she was an easy woman or a ****.

She was caught in a bad place and was so nervous that cold sweat was forming on her forehead.

Xia Ling watched her in amusement. Where was the arrogant and cocky woman in the lingerie shop? Was this all that Nangong Qingya had in her? How did she expect to compete with her for Li Lei?

“Nangong Qingya.” Nangong Bohai addressed her by her full name, which was a rare occurrence. “Explain yourself properly to Second Young Master Li... ” As he spoke, he continued by leading her in her explanation. “Were you really buying those lingerie items for yourself? Someone asked you to buy the items for them, right? You don’t have to cover for them.”

With her father’s prompting, Nangong Qingya caught on and went with the flow. “Actually, my third younger sister told me to buy the lingerie for her. She’s just gotten a new boyfriend and was embarrassed to buy the lingerie herself.”

Xia Ling was appalled at her character. Then, she clearly said that she had bought the lingerie to seduce Li Lei with. Now, she was buying it for her third younger sister? Xia Ling felt for her innocent third younger sister that was being thrown under the bus. She was about to retort. “That isn’t... ”

Li Lei nudged her.

He narrowed his eyes and asked the Nangong father-daughter pair. “Really?”

“That’s exactly what it was!” Nangong Qingya hurriedly assured him.

Li Lei didn’t say anything but took out his mobile and made a call. “Hello, Tan Ying, help me contact the third daughter of the Nangong family. I need her urgently to verify some information.” After his command, he pressed the speakerphone on his mobile and placed it on the table.

Nangong Qingya knew that this did not bode well. “Second Young Master Li, what are you trying to do?”

“I’m trying to ascertain the validity of Miss Nangong’s words.” Li Lei said. “I like honest women.”

“That’s me.” Xia Ling chimed in from the side.

Li Lei smiled and ruffled her hair fondly.

He wanted to use this lie to expose Nangong Qingya’s schemes and lies. Didn’t Grandfather like this woman a lot? He was going to make sure that she lost all credibility and had no place to be the Li Family daughter-in-law. He was going to tell his Grandfather, loud and clear, that this wife candidate was unsuitable.

Before Grandfather found the next potential candidate, he would be able to have a period of peace with Xiao Ling.

The Nangong father-daughter pair was like a cat on a hot, tin roof. They stared at the mobile but could not think of any way to prevent it.

Nangong Bohai was already regretting. Why did he choose this useless daughter out of all his daughters to be introduced to Second Young Master Li? She was about to ruin this perfectly thought out business marriage.

How unbecoming!

He shot several glares at Nangong Qingya, who felt enraged and wronged. On the other end, Xia Ling was whining to Li Lei. “I’m hungry.”

“I’ve asked the waiter to bring in something for you to eat.”

“The food here isn’t good.”

“What do you want to eat then?”

“Durian puff — made by you.”

“There aren’t any good durians in this season.”

“I don’t care! I want to eat that!”

“Okay, okay, okay... I’ll make that for you at your place later.”

Xia Ling smiled a huge satisfied grin and snuggled into his chest like a kitten.

This scene was like a million needles had plunged into Nangong Qingya’s heart.

After sitting around for a nervous few minutes, the line connected. Li Lei asked the third daughter of the Nangong family about her version of the story. The third daughter had never gotten along with Nangong Qingya, and she scolded Nangong Qingya over the phone, cursing at her and saying that she was being framed. She also revealed many of Nangong Qingya’s other poor behaviors.

Nangong Qingya’s face was ashen with anger.

Li Lei hung up and looked over at Nangong Qingya. “I really can’t think of any reason that a person like Miss Nangong should become my wife.”

“Second Young Master Li, don’t be too much!” As much as Nangong Bohai was dumb, he could tell that there was no way that the situation today would end nicely. Hence, he decided to feign anger and said, “My daughters are not born to be insulted. I think there is no need for us to continue with the meal today. Goodbye!”

“Don’t go.” Li Lei replied nonchalantly. “Miss Nangong Qingya here still owes Xiao Ling thirty billion yuan, plus compensation for the mental stress that she had to suffer. I think the compensation for mental stress we can count as another thirty billion. When does Miss Nangong intend to pay off this sixty billion yuan?”

His words left not only the Nangong father-daughter pair in shock but also left Xia Ling in shock as well.

She had already felt that it was incredulous that he was trying to claim the thirty billion back from Nangong Qingya, and now Li Lei was asking for sixty billion in total. She was almost in a daze.

Nangong Qingya felt herself go dizzy, her legs started feeling wobbly and her face turned pale.

Nangong Bohai was the first to come to his senses. “Why are you being so calculative over a spat between two girls?” He had made up his mind that there was no way that they would pay the sixty billion. It was sixty billion! This was daylight robbery!

“So you’re saying Miss Nangong is not intending to pay up?” Li Lei calmly responded.

“What not intending to pay up? Sixty billion is just blackmail!” Nangong Qingya was hopping mad.

“Miss Nangong is saying that I’m blackmailing you?” Li Lei’s eyes narrowed again.

“I... I was saying that Ye Xingling was.” Nangong Qingya shrunk back under his gaze. This man really could send a chill down your spine when he was putting pressure on you.

“You’re just paying what you owe.” Xia Ling was not going to admit that this was blackmail. “That’s how it should be.”
