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 76 Sacrificial Victim

"..."

Jiang Ni's spine stiffened as she realized what he was talking about.

"Not at all." Her raven-feather-like long lashes trembled. She looked up, as if afraid he wouldn't believe her, and answered while looking directly into his eyes, "Grandpa is still over there. If Grandpa asks me to go back, I might not be able to refuse right away."

"But I don't want to go back."

Her expression did not seem deceitful, nor was she being perfunctory.

Qin Jijing asked her why.

She hesitated for a moment, "I originally asked Jiang Cheng this to test his thoughts. In fact, I'd rather we both stay in China than him going abroad."

"I don't really like the environment abroad. I don't like feeling constrained, and I also know that Grandpa will still reject Jiang Cheng at heart."

"You have quite a few complaints about the old gentleman," he stated calmly.

Jiang Ni didn't argue; she just looked down and hummed in a muffled tone.
