Chapter 1: Don't You Want to Make Money? (2)

Editor: Henyee Translations

Sheng Shi opened his eyes and looked at the lifeless Gu Lanshan beside him under the dim indoor light.

She looked exhausted, lying there with eyes closed, lazily unwilling to move a bit.

Such a Gu Lanshan made Sheng Shi's heart inexplicably tremble. Staring at her peaceful face, his expression softened and his gaze fixed on her.

The entire room was extremely quiet.

Only the sound of two people's breathing could be heard, up and down.

Gu Lanshan was very beautiful, her half-wet black hair, white skin, and red lips made her even more charming and sexy after the intense entanglement just now. Sheng Shi watched her for a while and couldn't help but lean down.

However, at the moment their lips were about to touch, Gu Lanshan's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes.

Sheng Shi forcibly stopped his kissing action, quickly turned over and sat up, unhurriedly starting to get dressed.

Gu Lanshan couldn't help but stiffen her body, staring at Sheng Shi's figure. After thinking for a while, she carefully opened her mouth as if composing a sentence: "Dinner with you costs five thousand yuan, one bath five thousand yuan, did it twice, one time is ten thousand, total is..."

Sheng Shi paused in his dressing action, then continued silently.

With his back to her, Gu Lanshan couldn't see his expression, but she could clearly feel the heavy sense of oppression emanating from him.

Gu Lanshan knew this was a sign that Sheng Shi was unhappy.

She paused for five seconds, then still said, "Thirty thousand yuan."

"Bang"—

Before Gu Lanshan finished speaking, Sheng Shi grabbed the remote control beside him and threw it hard, hitting the White Jade from the Qianlong Era. The valuable jade piece was knocked unsteadily and fell, shattering into pieces with a thunderous sound.

Sheng Shi fiercely buttoned up the last button of his shirt, looked coldly at Gu Lanshan lying on the bed, scoffed coldly, then pulled out a cheque from his pocket, scribbled a line of digits with a pen, and handed it to Gu Lanshan.

Gu Lanshan silently reached out to take it. Seeing this indifferent Gu Lanshan, Sheng Shi only felt an inexplicable fire surging in his chest. He suddenly laughed in extreme anger, but his eyes were cold, saying, "Gu Lanshan, you really are something, selling yourself so cold-bloodedly!"

Gu Lanshan heard the sarcasm in Sheng Shi's words, but her expression didn't change at all. Or rather, she seemed not to hear his words at all. She just quietly took the cheque from Sheng Shi's hand.

Seeing such a calm Gu Lanshan, Sheng Shi felt even more furious and deeply frustrated.

He clenched his hand, finally just let out a low, cold laugh, stood upright, and turned to leave.

...

Some servants, startled by the sound of the White Jade from the Qianlong Era falling, saw Sheng Shi coming out of the master bedroom with a gloomy face, and immediately bowed and greeted respectfully, "Mr. Sheng."

Sheng Shi did not look at the servants, his strikingly handsome face cold, walking downstairs.

Anyone with eyes could see he was angry.

Even though he said nothing, his overbearing aura spread out, scaring the servants into holding their breath, not daring to speak.

Not until they heard the sound of the car starting and leaving outside, did everyone finally sigh in relief, yet still felt a chill in their hearts.

After a long while, the servants came back to their senses and quickly walked to the master bedroom door. One servant knocked and asked, "Lady Shan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Gu Lanshan paused, then added, "You all go rest."

"Yes, good night, Lady Shan."

The servants responded through the door, then dispersed, discussing softly.

"Did Mr. Sheng and Lady Shan have another fight? It sounded like something was broken, so loud."

"We'll know what was broken when we clean the room tomorrow. Mr. Sheng hardly comes home, yet ended with a fight with Lady Shan again."

"That's right, Mr. Sheng hasn't stayed home for a month. Sometimes I think, Lady Shan is quite pitiful."

"Actually, Mr. Sheng wasn't like this before. It's been this way since 'that time'."

...

The sound outside gradually disappeared. Finally, it was quiet around Gu Lanshan, but she couldn't sleep. Lying in bed for a while, she couldn't help but turn over, thinking, the servants were right. She and Sheng Shi indeed had "another" unpleasant parting tonight. She couldn't remember how many times Sheng Shi had inexplicably lost his temper like tonight.

Actually, the servants were right. Sheng Shi wasn't like this before. When did Sheng Shi become like this? The servants said it was "that time." Which time was "that time?" Gu Lanshan knew very well which time it was.

**************

How she fell asleep last night, Gu Lanshan had no memory at all.
