All she wanted to do was refuse, she didnât dare to ask for too much.
âDongfang Yuâ¦â Hai Xiaotang began, looking at the man opposite her. âWhat?â Dongfang Yu smirked, thinking she would say something moving. The result was her sayingâ¦
âIâll still pay Qiao Ningâs rent⦠youâre not allowed to refuse!â
Dongfang Yu was taken aback and annoyed, âHai Xiaotang, did you not hear a single word I just said?!â
Hai Xiaotang laughed, âI understand what you mean, but this is my principle. I wouldnât feel at ease if I didnât pay you.â
âNot at ease?â Dongfang Yu frowned.
âYes, for now, I donât want to intentionally take advantage of you. I hope you understand.â
Dongfang Yu remained poker-faced, âAccording to you, how do you plan to repay me for Hai Lanâs matter?â
âYou can refuse Hai Lanâs request, I donât really care.â Hai Xiaotang replied, not daring to meet his eyes, âBut Qiao Ning, I must help.â
âMove in with me, consider it as rent!â Dongfang Yu suddenly proposed.
Hai Xiaotang was stunned, quickly understanding his meaning she refused,
âNo, I can afford to pay the rent.â
âThen remarry me, take any advantage you want from me!â
âNo, I havenât thought about remarriage, Iâm still a student!â She just wanted to complete her studies first, other things could wait.
As for feelings, she was not eager to get it right, nor would she invest too much at one time.
Right now, she only dared to proceed slowlyâ¦
Once she was sure that she wouldnât be hurt anymore, only then would she step out completely.
Dongfang Yu made several more proposals that benefited him, all were declined by Hai Xiaotang.
The man was helpless and aggravated, âI donât want your money, youâre not allowed to give me any! You wonât agree to my proposals, so what do you suggest?â
Hai Xiaotang thought for a moment, and then came up with a good idea.
âIâll draw a design sketch for you for free, consider it as payment!â
In the depth of Dongfang Yuâs eyes, a sudden understanding flashed through.
Hai Xiaotang looked at his strange expression and was puzzled, âWhatâs wrong? Is it still not okay?â
Dongfang Yu looked at her deeply, gently stroking her hair.
His voice was low.
âHai Xiaotang, is there anyway to make you completely mineâ¦â Always be his, let no one or anything separate her from him.
Hai Xiaotang was taken aback, not understanding why he suddenly said such strange words.
âDongfang Yu, whatâs wrong with you?â she asked, puzzled.
The man withdrew his hand, smiling wickedly, âNothing. You donât have to draw the design sketch because youâve already done it. We can use that as payment.â
âIâve already drawn it?â Hai Xiaotang was surprised, âWhen?â
Dongfang Yu smiled, âDidnât I ask you to design the orphanage before? The
construction of the orphanage is still following your design.â
HaiXiaotangâs eyes widened, âMine?!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYes.â Dongfang Yu nodded, âThe construction of this orphanage is very important. Once itâs completed, it will receive high acclaim. So I gave you credit as the chief designer, naturally, youâll receive the highest honor when the time comes. This will greatly help your future career.â
Hai Xiaotang was even more shocked, âBut I donât know anything about designâ¦â
âIt doesnât matter. Win the award first, Iâll teach you design. Donât worry, with me around, everything is not a problem.â Dongfang Yu said confidently and indulgently.
Hai Xiaotang: ââ¦â
Was he pushing her into the spotlight under the guise of helping?
