Money-Grubbing Lover

Release schedule: Whenever I have time to write and upload :) She was an impoverished tomboy who always ended up in the midst of a fight. Living her life on the edge, she never flinched nor knew what the words giving up meant. Although life was hard, her pure and bright personality never suffered. However, her only weak point was quickly grasped by the notorious and feared CEO Xie Jingyu, who not only owned a business empire but according to rumors also had a lot of secret businesses in his hands. After saving the tycoon's life, she only had one request - money! Unfortunately, Xie Jingyu was not willing to let go of her just yet, and he pursued her with a relentlessness that made her breathless, a shamelessness that made her blush. Unable to get away from the overwhelming CEO, her only option was to counterattack, playing a game of cat and mouse, never giving in, never surrendering, but never wholly rejecting either. Could this money-grubbing woman turn into a lover, or would she manage to escape the net cast out by the king of underhanded deals? All rights to the novel and the cover belong to me.

Jealousy

Hearing her reply, Xie Jingyu was feeling calmer and a lot better. She was right; she had not done anything wrong to him up until now, so why would she suddenly cheat on him?

But he was not comfortable with this hacker, so he wanted to speak with Hui Liqiang before letting him follow her to the meeting.

Yu Huiyin thought that Xie Jingyu had something important to talk with Hui Liqiang about, so she just nodded her head obediently, before she reclined in the chair.

She was surfing online and chatting with Xu Nanfeng, planning on where to meet. In the end, she took her phone and dialed his number, shaking her head as his answers were incredibly hard to understand.

"Hey, hey, hey," he said as he answered the phone.

"Where do you want to meet today?" Yu Huiyin went straight to the topic and wanted to get things done as soon as possible, but Xu Nanfeng's answer was not what she had expected.

"We will meet at a restaurant that serves steak. I really want a good steak, and since you are my financier now, you better fork out the money for my meal."

Yu Huiyin could not help but laugh and shake her head in exasperation, but she still agreed in the end.

She went online and found a traditional restaurant that had a good reputation but wasn't too expensive, and then she booked a table.

"We will be meeting at one in the afternoon," she said to Xu Nanfeng, who had stayed in the call while she had booked the table on the place's website.

"Deal," Xu Nanfeng sounded excited, and Yu Huiyin could not help but shake her head slightly. Xu Nanfeng was a strange person, but she felt comfortable around him.

She knew that Xu Nanfeng had no romantic interest in her, just like she only saw him as a friend, so she was happy to work with him. There would not be any emotions that would be getting in the way.

At the same time, while Yu Huiyin was happy and humming a melody in the sitting room while reading up on various things, Hui Liqiang was sweating buckets of cold sweat in the study room, not daring to look at his boss who was so angered that he seemed as if he would kill everyone in sight within a moment.

"You said that there was a group of our gang members who had taken the task of dealing with Huiyin?" he asked, his voice not cold nor warm, just flat and emotionless.

"Ye... Yes," Hui Liqiang tried to say the word first, but due to a lump in his throat, he had to attempt twice before the words left his lips.

"And they were hired by the one called Zhao Jin, of the Zhao family?"

Clearing his throat first, Hui Liqiang managed to say "yes," without problems this time.

"But after they saw you, they ran away, and both this Zhao Jin and my Huiyin spoke together as if they were friends?"

"That is correct." Hui Liqiang was getting more and more scared, but he dared not show it on his face.

"And then, this Xu Nanfeng she keeps talking about is a foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes?"

"He is."

Xie Jingyu was frustrated. The gang members were efficiently dealt with, considering they were just ordinary members, so he could just expel them without them posing a danger to him in the future.

This Zhao Jin, he could have destroyed his family destroyed in an instant, causing them to go bankrupt, but why had he been talking so familiarly with Yu Huiyin?

If he was her friend, she might blame him for taking action, and that would be horrible.

And finally was this Xu Nanfeng. He was an attractive foreigner, of course, Xie Jingyu was feeling threatened.

He had not even managed to get Yu Huiyin to look at him yet, and now another figure had already arrived in the picture.

Yu Huiyin was so attractive and had such a great personality; he was sure that almost any man would fall for her.

Hui Liqiang wanted to point out that although she was wonderful did not mean that every man had an interest in her. He, for once, only saw her as his madam, but he dared not open his mouth.

He felt that if he started speaking, then Xie Jingyu would just pour all his bottled up frustrations onto him. That would be a disaster.

Xie Jingyu continued deep in thought before he sighed deeply. "You continue to follow her. Deal with the group of thugs as you see fit, afterward make everyone understand that Yu Huiyin is not someone that should be touched."

"I understand," Hui Liqiang felt relieved when he heard the orders that were given.

They were easy to manage, but he could not help but feel that although Xie Jingyu had made a decision, he was still unhappy with the situation.

It was true, Xie Jingyu was unhappy that Yu Huiyin depended on teamwork with another man than him.

If she needed someone to open a business with, why did she not pick him? He had everything she needed, but instead of turning to him, she had picked a foreigner whom she seemed to know from a long time ago.

That was also what annoyed him even more. This Xu Nanfeng had known Yu Huiyin much longer than he had, he had seen sides to her that he never had. It felt horrible.

Yu Huiyin was his wife, but other men knew her better than he did. This was enough to bring out the flames of jealousy in his heart.
