Gu Shinian let out a small sound before she slapped his hands away in a hurry. “I am fine. I am in too much pain. It is really… painful.”

If Qin Muchen questioned her further and discovered her secret, what should she do?

The doctor left after checking and making sure that she was fine.

The office became silent once again.

Qin Muchen finally remembered to ask, “Why did you come looking for me?”

Gu Shinian was reminded of why she was here today. She dug out the diamond card from her bag and gave it to him. “I don’t want this.”

“Don’t you lack money?” Qin Muchen knitted his brows, feeling unhappy.

Gu Shinian pursed her lower lips. “But I don’t want… I am not here to sell myself.”

They had just been intimate and he gave a priceless diamond card to her.

What did he mean by that?

Qin Muchen sneered. “Sell? Aren’t you the one who suggested to sell yourself?”

You forced me to it.

Gu Shinian felt anger boiling inside her. “No matter what, I don’t want it.”

“Whatever.”

Qin Muchen lifted his chin slightly. “You can throw it away if you don’t want it. There is no reason for me to take back the things that I have given away.”

There was a sound and he threw a lighter in front of her.

“If you don’t want it, you can burn it.”

B-burn it?

Gu Shinian was exasperated. The corner of her lips quivered.

She stared at the diamond card in a mixture of emotions. There must be a lot of money in the card.

She tried to sound him out. “How much money is in the card?”

“I have no idea,” Qin Muchen answered without much thought. “There should be at least a few billions.”

A few billions and he wanted her to burn it?

Gu Shinian curled the corner of her lips and she realized something right then.

“Even if I am here to sell myself, there is too much money.”

It was Qin Muchen’s turn to be speechless.

This woman must have delusions of grandeur.

Qin Muchen cast a sideways glance at the person next to him.

She held the card in her hand, there were conflicting emotions on her face. She seemed to be in a pickle but at the same time she behaved as if the card was sacred. The side of her face that was swollen made her looked funny. She looked even more comical with her widened eyes.

But laughter evaded him.

For an unknown reason, seeing how she was now, being chased and bullied by everyone, he felt… bad for her.

He could not help but sympathize with her.

Qin Muchen turned his stiffened face away, warning himself that this was Gu Shinian!

What was her specialty? Deception, hiding the truth and putting on a show.

Therefore, he must not be tricked by her again!

…

The doctor said that her feet must not touch the ground.

Therefore, Gu Shinian was sent back to the manor of the Qin family by the chauffeur.

Qin Muchen had a very valid reason.

He did not want the mother of his future child to be without limbs.

Gu Shinian felt perplexed.

She could give birth to a healthy baby even without limbs.

Besides… she could no longer have a baby.

“Ah!”

Gu Shinian grabbed a small fistful of her hair in annoyance, plopping down onto the bed. What should she do in the future?

She could not have children.

Qin Muchen did not say when he wanted a child.

When would things end between them?

Gu Shinian let out a long breath. The cell phone that was being thrown to the end of the bed rang, the ring tone bright and cheerful.

Gu Shinian was too lazy to sit up. She felt around the bed with her hands before she finally landed her hands on it and answered the call.

“Hello.”

There was a shallow breathing sound at the other end of the phone.

Gu Shinian muttered to herself in doubts, sitting up on the bed. She shook the cell phone out of curiosity. “Is the cell phone broken?”

A low laughter came from the phone.

It was deep, sexy and the voice was crystal clear.

The man stopped laughing and whispered as if he was her ex-lover. “Xiao Nian, long time no see.”
