Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 747

At the Xiao residence.

Qin Jinchuan was casually clipping his nails. Opposite him sat a gloomy-faced Xiao Linye.

Xiao Linye’s gaze darkened as he watched Qin Jinchuan.

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Xiao Linye finally asked, his tone filled with gloom.

Qin Jinchuan replied, "Nothing much. I just think we should let her do whatever she wants. Women, you know, they need to be pampered and given a full sense of security."

Xiao Linye retorted, "Her affairs don’t need your concern."

"You spent a month with Qi Mulan and gave her ten billion, so what?" Qin Jinchuan countered.

Xiao Linye’s breathing grew heavy again. He found Qin Jinchuan somewhat incomprehensible at the moment.

"If you want to give her money, then just give it to her! What’s the meaning of doing it in front of me?!" Xiao Linye demanded.

"No particular meaning!" Qin Jinchuan retorted. "It’s just to tell you that the person you don’t cherish, I desire!"

As his words fell, the air instantly grew still.

Xiao Linye stared at Qin Jinchuan, a sinister glint flickering relentlessly in the depths of his eyes.

He wanted her... Qin Jinchuan said he wanted her.

Xiao Linye scoffed, "You want her? Do you think she’d even look at you?"

"Whether she’d look at me is debatable," Qin Jinchuan said, "but whether she could ever look at you again is already a settled matter."

Everyone in Upper City knew just how stubborn Ye Yuning could be.

Previously, when Xiao Shuo was frequently out fooling around with other women, why did she never interfere? Because she simply didn’t care anymore.

"Now, when you go looking for Qi Mulan, does Ye Yuning care? Does she try to stop you?!" Qin Jinchuan pressed.

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the office grew even more palpably tense.

Xiao Linye’s glare at Qin Jinchuan intensified, becoming even more ruthless.

Qin Jinchuan scoffed. "Back when Xiao Shuo was out carousing and womanizing, she didn’t interfere because she didn’t care."

"If she doesn’t even ask about you anymore, it means there’s absolutely no chance for the two of you."

Hearing this, Xiao Linye’s heart plummeted.

Not even asking... Did that really mean it was impossible now?

He thought about how Ye Yuning hadn’t called him in a month. He hadn’t returned to Xiangti, and she hadn’t asked a single question about his whereabouts.

That version of her truly matched the woman Qin Jinchuan had described.

So, did she really not care anymore?

A sinister glint flashed through Xiao Linye’s eyes.

Qin Jinchuan stated, "Don’t go to Xiangti anymore!"

This was his true purpose for appearing here today. Since he had already decided to retract the concessions he had made back in Turanxi, he felt he should also inform Xiao Linye of his current resolution.

Xiao Linye sneered, "Hah! And you think you can call the shots?"

"If you go there and upset her, it pains me."

The words "it pains me," though seemingly light, struck Xiao Linye’s ears and instantly filled his eyes with rage.

He felt pained? Qin Jinchuan said it pained *him*...

"Heh!" Xiao Linye scoffed again, a cold laugh.

Qin Jinchuan said, "You have Qi Mulan. Stop pestering Ye Yuning."

Xiao Linye roared, "Shut up!"

It would have been better not to mention Qi Mulan. The moment her name was brought up, Xiao Linye’s gaze on Qin Jinchuan turned even more dangerous.

His breathing grew heavy, almost unconsciously.

Qin Jinchuan stood up. "I’ve said my piece. If you insist on staying at Xiangti, it’s not out of the question for me to give you the house."

"Is that house even yours to give away?" Xiao Linye challenged.

"If I say I can, then naturally, I can," Qin Jinchuan replied coolly.

So, was he implying that he could now make decisions for Ye Yuning?

Xiao Linye’s already grim expression darkened completely upon hearing Qin Jinchuan’s words.

The moment Qin Jinchuan stepped out of the office, Xiao Linye snatched up his phone and dialed Ye Yuning’s number.

Ye Yuning was in a meeting when she saw Xiao Linye’s number calling. Without a second thought, she tried to hang up.

But she must have misclicked or something! Xiao Linye’s commanding voice suddenly boomed from the conference room’s speakerphone: "Return Qin Jinchuan’s fifteen billion to him immediately! I’ll give you twenty billion!"

Everyone in the meeting room, hearing this commanding and imperious declaration, instinctively turned to look at Ye Yuning.

Ye Yuning’s heart couldn’t help but sink a little when she heard this.

Just this morning at Xiangti, he had come up with all sorts of excuses not to give her money, and now he was offering twenty billion.

She scoffed inwardly. "Alright," she said aloud.

Only a fool would turn down that much money. Who in their right mind would say no to cash? She certainly wasn’t that stupid.

Xiao Linye demanded, "Return it to him today."

"Got it," Ye Yuning replied, her voice deliberately cheerful.

Her cheerful tone made Xiao Linye, on the other end of the line, feel a jolt of unease.

Was she really that happy just because he offered her money? Or had she truly reached a point where she only cared about money and not about people?

"I’ll make sure it’s handled today," she cooed. "But that twenty billion you mentioned... when will it be transferred?"

Her tone was exceptionally sweet, as if she were genuinely afraid Xiao Linye might not actually give her the money.

Hearing her words, Xiao Linye on his end found his breath catching slightly.

Finally, he took a deep breath and bit out, "Within the day!"

"Okay, then. I’ll be waiting to use it," Ye Yuning said before promptly hanging up.

Xiao Linye stared at the blank screen of his phone, his thin lips pressed into a tight line. He felt that this young woman was now like an unruly child, completely beyond his control. Her attitude of caring only for money and not for people, in particular, truly infuriated him.
