4 How Will You Repay Me?

Translator: Yunyi

The fresh and smooth fish covered one's tastebuds and the rich flavors of the ham lingered on the tip of their tongue.

Lou Yucheng had always known that Li Weiyin was skilled and could hold onto anyone's stomach, but he was still amazed and intoxicated by the food she cooked.

When one's mouth and stomach were satisfied, their mood naturally improved.

Li Weiyin took this opportunity to speak up, "Yucheng, I want to borrow some money from you."

Lou Yucheng lifted his gaze and looked at her. This was the first time she had mentioned money to him. Without a word, Lou Yucheng nodded and walked into his study room to fetch a pen and his cheque book.

He then sat in front of Li Weiyin and asked, "How much do you need?"

Although he asked for an amount, his head was lowered and he was already writing 5 million yuan on the cheque, "Is 5 million enough?"

Li Weiyin clenched her fists and slightly shook her head.

With an unchanged expression, Lou Yucheng started writing out another cheque worth 5 million, "10 million should be enough, right?"

He had met many women in his life, but Li Weiyin was the first one that was allowed to enter and leave his home freely.

She was also the first woman that gave him the impulse to settle down.

Moreover, she was the first woman he was willing to date innocently. In fact, they had seriously been together for half a year and he hadn't even kissed her once.

He gave her respect, consideration, care, and patience, and even if she lied to him, he intended not to expose it.

The determined Li Weiyin felt her courage dissipate with Lou Yucheng's actions.

As she looked at the cold and handsome face in front of her, she found it even harder to speak up.

Lou Yucheng's handsome looks were famous in Hua Country. Ever since he spoke at a business summit three years ago and a picture of him in a suit was shared online, he became more popular with the women than some of the most famous celebrities in the country.

He had a standard square face, but his chin was attractive and his features were noble and valiant.

His eyes were big and dark and his eye shape was smooth and fluid. When he wasn't talking, he looked extremely cold, but when he smiled, he looked infinitely gentle.

His nose was tall and straight and his lips were thin. This man could look cold and valiant one second, and warm and cheery the next.

In fact, in the time that they had been together, Li Weiyin even saw his cute and dopey side occasionally.

Li Weiyin's troubled look caused Lou Yucheng to ask seriously, "What do you need this money for?"

What did 10 million yuan look like? If one person's monthly salary was 10,000, they would receive 120,000 a year. After they deduct their living expenses and other social expenses, the average person would have to work until they turned 100 before they accumulated that amount, even if they received a raise.

If the 10 million yuan was organized into stacks of cash, it would weigh more than 110 kilograms⁠—enough to squash a person to death!

For a 22-year-old woman that hadn't fully matured yet, 10 million yuan was more than enough for investing, buying property, and starting a business.

"My family is in trouble and we need 300 million yuan to compensate the bank." Li Weiyin took a deep breath and tried to sound natural. "I will borrow this money and repay you."

It was her first time asking to borrow money, let alone such a large sum. Even though it was the person she liked, Li Weiyin still felt uneasy.

Lou Yucheng stared at her quietly with his deep, dark eyes. His stare made her uncomfortable. But, he eventually scoffed and looked at her coldly, "Repay me? How will you repay me? With your body?"

Li Weiyin looked at him in shock, uncertain of what she had heard.

However, a smile clung to the corner of Lou Yucheng's lips. He slightly tilted his head and looked at her, but his smile was no longer gentle and warm like it used to be.

He suddenly pressed down, grabbed her chin, and said in a scornful tone, "What gave you the confidence to think you're worth 300 million?"
