Chapter 763: Chapter 759 Congratulations on Passing the Test

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lin Qianru laughed, a hearty laugh that took a good while to subside. Stabilizing her emotions, she looked at Bai Zhiqing with a mocking smile on her face and said, ”Hehe, so Mr. Bai, you knew we’ve been together for so many years now, huh? Then, after all these years, you should be clear about what kind of person Lin Qianru is.”

”What do you mean by that?” Bai Zhiqing asked, her face darkening.

”Mr. Bai, my words don’t have any hidden meanings. If you want me to leave, I have nothing more to say. After all, I’m just a mistress despised by everyone, but...”

At this point, Lin Qianru’s expression turned cold, her voice carrying a tinge of anger, ”But you should never have equated love with money. Do you really think that love can be bought with money? I know you’re rich, but your money can’t buy my feelings.”

Lin Qianru’s gaze was fierce as she looked at Bai Zhiqing, her tone ice-cold, ”In your eyes, my love may have a price, but I’m telling you now that in my heart, my love is priceless, a true treasure beyond measure. Even if you offered me the whole world, I wouldn’t trade it, not even in death will my love fade. Not only that, but this time, I won’t back down no matter what. I will definitely take Tianxing away from you, and I will never allow you to ~desecrate~ love with money.”

”Lin Qianru, are you sure you want to give up this opportunity? Just nod your head, and you’ll be set for life. Why put yourself through this? Even if you end up winning, so what? Just because he leaves me for you, aren’t you afraid that one day he’ll leave you for another woman? You should think it over carefully. You only get this chance once; you might never get another opportunity like this...”

”Mr. Bai, you don’t need to say anymore. I know what I’m doing. If one day Tianxing leaves me for another woman, I will have no regrets because it would mean I wasn’t good enough, and that’s why he would leave,” Bai Zhiqing said firmly.

Lin Qianru’s eyes showed determination as she spoke calmly, ”Money isn’t important to me. I don’t need a luxurious material life. Even if my man has nothing, I would still love him, even if he’s penniless, unable to give me a good life, unable to buy me diamond rings or take me to fancy restaurants. As long as he loves me, that’s enough.”

”Mr. Bai, Bai Zhiqing, do you know what love is? Love is staying together through thick and thin, never abandoning each other, even if all we have is an egg, and he shares half with me, I would feel utterly content and extremely happy because he loves me and is willing to share what he has with me. That’s what love is to ordinary people. You don’t have to go to such lengths to separate me from Lu Tianxing. There’s no need for money; all you have to do is have Lu Tianxing tell me himself that he doesn’t love me anymore. Lin Qianru will immediately turn around and leave, never to look back.”

Bai Zhiqing was momentarily stunned, not expecting Lin Qianru to say such a thing. She quickly regained her composure and said, ”You better think this through. If you choose this path, you’ll end up with nothing, left with nothing at all, and you might even be ruined. You should know how I, Bai Zhiqing, deal with enemies.”

”I’m not afraid. This is the decision I’ve made, and I have no regrets,” Lin Qianru asserted.

Lin Qianru stared at Bai Zhiqing with determination and anger in her beautiful eyes. From the moment Bai Zhiqing started offering her money to leave Lu Tianxing, Lin Qianru had felt a surge of anger, but since she was at a disadvantage, she had to hold back her fury. Now, Bai Zhiqing’s persistent aggression had finally pushed Lin Qianru to her breaking point.

”Mr. Bai, I know you’re very rich, extremely rich, but I want to tell you not to think so poorly of everyone. Not every mistress is after money. A mistress can also give her life for love, for a man,” Lin Qianru declared with deep resolve.

Lin Qianru took a deep breath and looked at Bai Zhiqing, emphasizing, ”I might not have as much money as you, but I will not give up my love because of your money. If you want me to step aside, then have Tianxing tell me himself; otherwise, even in death, I will not leave Tianxing, and I will not give up on him either.”

The final words resonated with conviction, representing Lin Qianru’s resoluteness.

Upon hearing this speech, Bai Zhiqing’s cold demeanor suddenly melted away like ice and snow, revealing a radiant smile, like a blooming rose, captivating and impossible to look away from.

Seeing the smile on Bai Zhiqing’s face, Lin Qianru was momentarily taken aback, not understanding why Bai Zhiqing had suddenly begun to smile.

”Mr. Bai, you...” Lin Qianru said softly.

Before she could finish her sentence, Bai Zhiqing interrupted her, ”Qian Ru, congratulations on passing my test.”

Lin Qianru’s body trembled, her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Bai Zhiqing and said in astonishment, ”Mr. Bai, you... what do you mean by that?”

”I said I agree to your being with Lu Tianxing,” Bai Zhiqing sighed, looking at Lin Qianru.

”What? Mr. Bai, you...”

Although Qian Ru had already guessed the answer when she heard Bai Zhiqing mention passing the test, she still found it hard to believe when Bai Zhiqing said it herself. She couldn’t comprehend how Bai Zhiqing could agree to let her and Lu Tianxing be together, to choose to share a husband between two women. It must have taken a lot of courage to say that.

”You heard me right, I agree to you and Lu Tianxing being together, and this time it’s an opportunity you seized for yourself, not one I gave you.”

Bai Zhiqing looked at Lin Qianru, sighed softly, and said, ”I know you love Lu Tianxing, but I love him just as much, not a bit less. I don’t want to see Lu Tianxing feel guilty towards you, nor do I want him to suffer for a lifetime because of you. Likewise, I really don’t want to see a woman with ulterior motives around Lu Tianxing.”

”Although I’ve never been in a relationship, I’m well aware of Lu Tianxing’s character. To put it bluntly, he’s a philanderer; to put it nicely, he’s a man who plays the game of life. I know I can’t really tie Lu Tianxing down to myself. For a capable and strong man, he will never focus entirely on one woman. Rather than letting him go after those questionable women out there, it’s better to have a woman I know by his side. So...”

Before Bai Zhiqing could finish, Lin Qianru took over, ”So you deliberately acted all arrogant and domineering just now, intending to use money to make me leave Lu Tianxing?”

”Exactly.”

Bai Zhiqing nodded, saying, ”I know I can’t keep an eye on Lu Tianxing, but I don’t want women with nefarious intentions by his side. So I simply decided to test you. If you had been tempted at all, I can assure you that you would’ve gotten nothing, and moreover, I wouldn’t have minded playing the villain, making you get lost from Lu Tianxing’s side, even if it meant Lu Tianxing would blame me, hate me later on; I would have spared no effort.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Qianru’s heart trembled slightly, feeling grateful that her love for Lu Tianxing was without any pretense, otherwise, she might have truly lost him forever.

”However...”

Bai Zhiqing spoke again, ”However, although I agree to you and Lu Tianxing being together, there must be some rules about certain things.”

Hearing Bai Zhiqing’s words, Lin Qianru nodded eagerly without any hesitation. For her, as long as she wouldn’t have to leave Lu Tianxing, she could agree to anything Bai Zhiqing said, because she loved Lu Tianxing.
