Power and Passion: A Billionaire's Secret

【Flirtatious FL x Cool and Noble ML, age gap】 Investment banking magnate Qin Jijing, the only son of this generation's Qin Family from Beijing, was rumored to have ancestors of no simple status. Hence, he had always been an awe-inspiring presence amongst the second generation of the Beijing Circle, someone no one dared to provoke lightly. Unfortunately, Jiang Ni's ambition was too great; she risked a relationship with him that was neither public nor heartfelt. She had ulterior motives, weaving trap after trap for Qin Jijing with various sweet nothings, and then heartlessly initiated a breakup. That night, as Jiang Ni prepared to flee, he cornered her in the bedroom for a confrontation. “I've deceived you for so long, and you still don't agree to break up with me?” “What do you mean by deception?” The man's tone was calm, as if he already knew something: “Those little schemes of using my connections to pave your own way? Then, you could have aimed a bit higher.” “But if, what you're referring to is deception in terms of liking me…” The man's tone paused, but his insistence did not wane, “Nini, listen carefully to your own voice.” He said, “I don't think so. Your body doesn't think so either.”

Chapter 162: Birthday Gift

The old gentleman knew better than anyone how much longer his body could hold on. He had previously told Jiang Ni that he could make it until the end of this winter…

The old gentleman looked out the window, where it was still overcast and cloudy. In the yard, withered branches and fallen leaves swayed in the wind, a scene of desolation.

He probably wouldn't make it past this winter.

Those words were merely to comfort Jiang Ni.

In recent days, his health had deteriorated further. If it weren't for his desire to celebrate her birthday, he might have left this world already.

"Jiang Ni probably hasn't had the chance to tell you. Maybe she doesn't know how to start. It's alright, it's the same if I tell you."

After all, he had played the role of the villain for so many years, what was one more time?
