Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1942: Chapter 1520: Your Situation Is Pretty Serious...

At the long table, a man and a woman each held a crystal goblet, tasting fine wine from Europe that costs hundreds of thousands per bottle.

The woman was speaking heartfelt secrets, while the man listened intently.

This scene looked very much like love.

Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with love in the slightest.

Bai Xiaosheng acted as a ”strategist,” or perhaps an ”emotional expert,” listening to Hong Wu’s romantic experiences.

When Hong Wu finally spoke, she really started from the beginning, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube—

”Don’t look at me being twenty-eight this year, but when it comes to love, I’m still a blank sheet of paper.”

”If we talk about entanglements with men, the earliest would be in kindergarten, when I beat up a little boy who dared to make faces at me until his face was covered in blood. Since then, I’ve had no affinity with men.”

”During my high school years, I led a gang of sisters, and we lived quite well by charging ’necessary protection fees’ from the boys. Of course, you can abbreviate that name to three words if you want. In short, I was the notorious Fifth Brother, and I found nothing wrong with it.”

”First love? Doesn’t exist. Maybe my nerves in that area were innately slow; that particular string took more than a decade to grow. I don’t even like overly feminine dressing. Crying or wiping tears at the drop of a hat is the most obnoxious sight to me. I’ve even wondered if I have a problem...”

”But feelings are such a mysterious thing, sometimes out of nowhere, catching you off guard.”

”That day, I can’t recall the occasion clearly. I just remember Lin Chensheng’s cousin publicly mocking him, and I was there for the spectacle.”

”As it turns out, you know what, Lin Chensheng made my heart skip a beat. I still remember a ray of sunlight shone on his face, making him look especially handsome, especially manly. He said something particularly inspiring to his cousin with such momentum!”

”’You laugh at me as trash because you can’t see my value. One day, you’ll find that the trash of yesteryear is beyond your reach! My brilliance will make it impossible for you to look directly! Thirty years Hedong, thirty years Hexi, by then, even if I laugh at you once or glance at you, it’ll count as my loss!’”

Hong Wu recalled this emotionally, her face almost showing a bit of adoration.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at her with a peculiar gaze, not interrupting her sweet memories.

How was this motivating?

Where was the momentum?

Bai Xiaosheng deeply suspected that these were phrases Lin Chensheng cobbled together from reading online novels...

Yet, love is blind, and such things are hard for outsiders to understand.

”I also don’t know why, that heart of a woman which had laid dormant for so many years suddenly faltered at that moment. Later, I took it upon myself to comfort him and even secretly helped him teach a lesson to those Lin Family boys,” Hong Wu continued. ”We were friends for a while, really good friends!”

So this is the so-called ”I see you as a friend, but you want to hurt me” in a female version, Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

”I even asked my mom to come out and matchmake for me,” Hong Wu continued. ”You wouldn’t believe how happy my mom was when she heard this. She always suspected something was wrong with my orientation, so when she learned I liked men, she was overjoyed and immediately took me to the Lin Family.”

”Lin Chensheng was surprised when he heard about our purpose, but he didn’t oppose it then. In fact, he even dated me afterward.”

Hong Wu said, ”But after a small incident, he started playing little tricks, refusing to meet me, telling people we’re not suitable!”

”What small incident?” Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Supposedly, Lin Chensheng accepted Hong Wu, which should have been a mutual affection, a great thing, so how did this turn into the current situation?

”That day, I brought a pot of soup to find him at his company. Of course, the soup was made by an auntie; I’m not good at that kind of thing,” Hong Wu said.

That’s not important.

”And then?” Bai Xiaosheng asked.

”It was the Lin Family’s company. Lin Chensheng’s cousin was the general manager, and several peers from the Lin Family were there. Just because Lin Chensheng made a mistake and ruined a project or something, his cousin scolded him in front of a hundred people. He endured it stoically without saying a word, bearing the humiliation in public,” Hong Wu said, still angry. ”What could I do? I kicked his cousin off the stage and pointed at him, saying, this man is under my protection. If you dare touch him, I’ll hit you every time I see you! I told everyone else, Lin Chensheng is Hong Wu’s man, and nobody is allowed to bully him, just like you have to consider the owner before hitting a dog!”

Bai Xiaosheng was holding his wine close to his mouth, completely stunned.

He could totally imagine Lin Chensheng being called someone’s plaything by a woman in front of a hundred people, which was utterly humiliating.

If you replaced the word ”man” with ”woman” in Hong Wu’s words, and switched their genders, the female side might be deeply touched.

But a man needs dignity, even if he’s Lin Family’s so-called trash; he still has a bottom line of face.

Hong Wu was single-handedly ruining their relationship.

”And then?” Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but ask in surprise.

”Then Lin Chensheng took three days off from work, whereas I went every day during those three days to repeatedly educate those people,” Hong Wu said.

Bai Xiaosheng was speechless.

This woman really has a problem with being bossy!

Getting further down the road to self-destruction...

”Afterward, Lin Chensheng resigned, maybe because he found it meaningless,” Hong Wu said.

I think he was too ashamed to return...

Bai Xiaosheng silently provided the real reason in his mind.

”And the most annoying thing is, from then on, he started avoiding me, refusing to see me. He even sent someone to say we’re not suitable!” Hong Wu said angrily. ”I had to make some remedial measures, at least not be unable to meet up.”

”So what did you do?” Bai Xiaosheng put his wine glass on the table, unable to resist the suspenseful question.

Hong Wu is not a woman without intellect or cunning, but her emotional intelligence, possibly due to her bossy environment where everyone conformed to her, is extremely low.

”I paid to bribe one of his friends, and during a party when he drank too much, I let him play a few rounds with others in a place, let him lose everything, and then lent him a million or so, thinking I would become his creditor, and he couldn’t avoid seeing me,” Hong Wu said.

Bai Xiaosheng really wanted to applaud her.

Brilliant!

With this level of self-destruction, Lin Chensheng staying with her would be a miracle!

”But I heard from Baldhead that he owed two million. This amount of money isn’t significant for Lin Chensheng, right? If he really pays you back and doesn’t see you, what would you say?” Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help asking.

”He gave me three million,” Hong Wu replied with a smug smile. ”But I told him that only counts as interest. This debt rolls over, and he still has to keep paying!”

Bai Xiaosheng was utterly speechless.

It’s like she’s digging a pit for Lin Chensheng, and it’s a bottomless one. Once his face is gone, and she also pits him, continuing with her would be preposterous.

”I’ve pretty much told you everything. What do you think I should do now?” Hong Wu asked, looking at Bai Xiaosheng with some expectation.

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help clicking his tongue, ”Your situation is quite severe! I’m starting to feel like my compensation is too low! Alright, alright, let’s change things from now on. I’ll teach you how to pursue a man!”
