Hence, Professor Tan, who had someone’s support, became more daring when he realized this.

Pei Yucheng hadn’t expected that Lin Yan’s attitude would change so drastically. He hadn’t expected Professor Tan to dare defy him either. For a moment, he couldn’t think of a solution.

Pei Yucheng glanced at the girl with a sly smile. “Miss Lin… Do you accept bribes?”

The man undid his top two buttons, revealing his collarbone and the top part of his chest. His voice was hoarser than usual due to the fever, and his eyes looked like stars in the desert. When he looked at her, it was as though he was holding a hook…

He wanted to bribe her!

Did he think that she was that easy to bribe?

That was impossible!

He couldn’t do anything!

Lin Yan’s eyes flickered slightly, but she remained unmoved. “I told you that your tricks won’t work on me.”

She had been blown away by Professor Tan’s words. The whole city was a mess, and only rage was left in her heart.

Pei Yucheng raised an eyebrow as he adjusted his spectacles. He picked up his phone and pressed a button.

Lin Yan was still trying to figure out what he was up to when she heard her phone ring with a notification. “Payment received. One million yuan.”

Pei Yucheng chuckled softly. “What about this?”

Lin Yan was speechless…

Professor Tan was speechless…

Pei Yutang, Pei Nanxu, Qin Huan, Xing Chen, and Ling Yue were speechless…

Brother, you’re really shameless!

Lin Yan’s back stiffened as she stared at the record on her phone. A crack appeared on her cold face, and her eyes sparkled.

One million yuan!

“Can I work now?” Pei Yucheng chuckled softly.

Lin Yan shut her eyes, almost dying of anger.

This was too much!

If he couldn’t use his beauty to trick her, he would use money to bribe her!

Lin Yan took a few deep breaths and took some time to recover. She used all her willpower to resist this relentless corruption.

Then, she pressed down on her phone and said, “Don’t try to get lucky. It’s useless. I’ve returned 999,480 yuan to you!”

999,480 yuan…

Pei Yucheng was momentarily taken aback when he heard the figure. Then, he snapped back to his senses and his lips curled into a faint smile.

Pei Yutang and the others were puzzled.

Pei Yutang scratched his head. “What do you mean you returned 999,480 yuan? Is there a refund fee?”

Qin Huan asked, “What is the meaning of this number?”

Both Xing Chen and Ling Yue were puzzled.

To be honest, Lin Yan had been acting as though she had transformed into another person today. Her words and actions had surprised them.

Pei Nanxu, who stood beside her, coughed softly. “Ahem… She means that… she returned 999,480 yuan and left behind 520[1] yuan.”

Pei Yutang was speechless…

Qin Huan was speechless…

Xing Chen was speechless…

Ling Yue was speechless…

Everyone was speechless when they saw how much love and affection they had for each other.

Pei Yutang bit his finger as he complained. “F*ck! Who said that Sister-In-Law is an insensitive girl who doesn’t know what love is? Big Brother’s illness has unsealed the weird seal on her!”

Qin Huan stroked his chin. “Am I mistaken? Why do I feel that my brother is a little… fearful?”

Xing Chen replied, “I don’t think you are mistaken…”
