Chapter 188: Chapter 130 Very Sincere_2Seeing her maintain such an attitude, Chen Feng was somewhat at a loss for words. However, he also knew that from her perspective, it really took courage to stand up to someone like Jiang Chao. "What will you do if he keeps pestering you in the future?" Chen Feng asked. Lin Yujiao replied helplessly, "I’ll hide if I can. If I can’t, I’ll just have to play along." Having said that, she glanced at Chen Feng and added, "But with your help this time, breaking it all down, he probably won’t bother me again, right?" Chen Feng shook his head, "That’s not necessarily true. Didn’t he know about your boyfriend, me, yesterday? And yet, he still came to harass you today didn’t he? You’ve said it yourself – he’s a lecher; what he can’t have always seems better to him. He’s surely not going to forget about you, unless he finds a new interest, or... if something happens to him, like his company goes bankrupt, someone reports him for being involved in the underworld, tax evasion, or if he has an accident, gets seriously ill, or is in a car crash or something." All Lin Yujiao could do was let out a long sigh, "Then that’s really tough. It seems I’ll still have troubles in the future." Chen Feng chuckled and said, "If you were with me, I could help you deal with him." Lin Yujiao frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?" Chen Feng suddenly became serious, "I mean exactly what it sounds like. I’m currently pretending to be your boyfriend, aren’t I? But you know my status as your boyfriend is in name only. If I were your real boyfriend, I’d be motivated and obligated to help you get rid of this disgusting guy." "You... didn’t you say you’re not into blind dating or relationships?" Lin Yujiao widened her eyes in surprise. Chen Feng nodded and said, "Yes. We’re not going to blind date or be in a relationship, just pretend to be boyfriend and girlfriend, eh, not for too long, just until I return to Xiu Zhou, about a month or so." Lin Yujiao thought Chen Feng had wanted to start a relationship with her, and she felt pleasantly surprised and taken aback, but then he said this, and she was so angry she wanted to slap him on the spot. Just a month of being boyfriend and girlfriend?! Does he think I’m a fool? "What kind of nonsense is this? What do you think I am? And where do you get the confidence that you can help me deal with Jiang Chao?" Lin Yujiao lost her cool, and if it weren’t for the fact that Chen Feng was still her employer and had helped her out twice, she would have turned her back on him by now. "Don’t be angry. I’m just discussing it with you." Chen Feng, completely unfazed, said earnestly, "Actually, I quite like you. If it weren’t for the psychological trauma from my divorce, I really would like to date you, be in a relationship, even remarry. But now, I just want a companion, for mutual comfort, for warmth. You know what I mean? I’m very sincere. Just accompany me for a month, and I can double the 15,000 we agreed on before, making it 30,000. You can come out and spend time with me whenever you’re free; it doesn’t have to be every day." "Pah!" Lin Yujiao looked askance and spat angrily, then stormed back to her seat behind the counter, all puffed up. Chen Feng walked over with a grin, hands on the counter, and continued to speak to her, "If you think the money isn’t enough, we can discuss it further." Lin Yujiao looked up and glared at him sharply, saying, "Don’t make me despise you. You seemed like such a decent person, how can you act like this? We were supposed to go on a blind date, what does this count for now? If others knew, my dignity, my aunt’s dignity, my family’s dignity, would we have any left?" "Who would know if you don’t tell and I don’t tell? Besides, I genuinely like you. It’s just that I really don’t want to get into another relationship for now. If you agree, for the next month we’ll be a very proper boyfriend and girlfriend. You won’t need me to pretend anymore, I’ll be the real deal. We’re both adults, and both have been married before, isn’t it normal to be a couple for a month?" "Can we meet each other’s parents, talk about marriage?" Lin Yujiao looked at him with contempt. Chen Feng laughed, "If you’re up for it, of course we can. But after a month, we’ll break up. It doesn’t bother me as a man, but it wouldn’t be good for your reputation if it got out." "You... you’re a rake!" Lin Yujiao looked as if she might bite him. Chen Feng retorted dissatisfied, "How am I a rake? I’m speaking to you calmly and reasonably. If you really don’t want to, I definitely won’t force you." "I don’t want to," Lin Yujiao said coolly, immediately rejecting. "You really don’t want it?" Chen Feng was somewhat incredulous, "This is thirty thousand yuan." Lin Yujiao said indignantly, "Do you think I’m desperate for your thirty thousand? If I was really after the money, I would have taken the five or six hundred thousand that Jiang Chao offered earlier." Chen Feng said with disdain, "Can he even compare with me? He’s over forty, looks like that, not even one meter seventy, with a face full of fat, and a garlic nose on top of it, teeth stained yellow from smoking, and a beer belly. Besides, he said it was a loan, not a gift. If you actually borrowed tens of thousands from him, your life would be ruined, and you’d be nothing but his kept mistress. He’s got plenty of ways and tricks to deal with you." Lin Yujiao had not really considered this before, but after Chen Feng said so, she suddenly felt a shiver run down her spine and hastily said, "Then you help me get rid of him first. As long as you help me with him, I’ll... consider it." "Are you trying to play me?" Chen Feng shook his head with a smile, "If you’re not willing, forget it. After all, I’m only looking for a temporary companion. Thirty thousand yuan a month could get you a college beauty in the city." Upon hearing this, Lin Yujiao felt a mix of shame and anger. She indeed couldn’t compare with those female college students. Her lack of education had always been a sore point in her heart. For a moment, she had no words to retort. "Right. Didn’t you say you had family issues and no time to accompany me today? Why did you come to open the shop again? That’s not very honest of you. I paid you to have fun with me." Lin Yujiao was already angry, but upon hearing Chen Feng’s words, she suddenly felt embarrassed, knowing she was at fault. She had in fact returned here last night. Lin Yujiao could only make excuses, "If you want my company, you have to let me know. If you don’t tell me, of course I’ll assume you don’t need me." "Alright. I’m notifying you now to accompany me. Come with me right now." Chen Feng looked at her with an amused grin. Lin Yujiao was immediately choked with anger, and for a moment, she wanted to return the money she received yesterday, but it was after all seven thousand yuan, which she was reluctant to give up. "Fine, let’s go," Lin Yujiao said, getting up with a stern face. Chen Feng teased, "Your service attitude won’t do. I don’t expect you to serve with a smile, but at least you shouldn’t show me a sour face, right?" "I’m in a bad mood, that’s just how it is. If you don’t like it, then you don’t need to ask me to accompany you today." "Well then. If you don’t want to accompany me, it’s your choice, I won’t ask for a refund. But I definitely can’t give you the next eight thousand yuan." "You... Are you bullying me?" Lin Yujiao was immediately upset. "Who’s bullying whom? You took the money but didn’t deliver, and now you’re blaming me?" Lin Yujiao, being in the wrong, could only remain silent with a wooden expression. "Haha, just kidding," Chen Feng suddenly laughed and said, "Since you’re not in the mood today, let’s call it off. As for dealing with Jiang Chao, I’ll think of a way. Okay, I’m off now." Chen Feng said he was leaving and waved to Lin Yujiao, who was still dazed, not lingering at all as he walked away. It was only after Chen Feng’s figure had disappeared that Lin Yujiao came back to her senses, her heart a tumult of emotions. In fact, if it wasn’t for a woman’s pride, she would have almost agreed earlier. It was thirty thousand yuan, after all. She wasn’t a pure maiden but a woman who had been married and had suffered a miscarriage. Keeping up such a facade was really pointless and unnecessary. But deep down, she didn’t want Chen Feng to look down on her. She may not have been as educated as Chen Feng, who graduated from a key university, but the only thing she was proud of was her looks. If she sold herself for thirty thousand yuan, she felt Chen Feng would definitely look down on her in his heart. Moreover, Chen Feng’s parents knew her aunt and uncle. If her being kept by him came to light, how could she face anyone?
