Li Liping returned home, distraught. She didn't dare tell Ji Fu what had happened today.
Not only had she failed her task, but she also had to pay a huge sum of money.
She was trying to figure out how to pay back Jiang Manyun, well aware that the woman was not one to be trifled with.
Just as she was thinking, Ji Yao walked in.
"Mom, what's going on with you and Dad today? You both look so worried."
"Yaoyao, do you want to marry Xu Ji?"
Li Liping asked, trembling as she held Ji Yao's hand.
Ji Yao casually twirled the new Bvlgari Serpenti ring on her finger. Its diamond scales refracted a cold light under the chandelier.
"Marry him? Hah! Mom, do you know what Xu Ji said the day he gave me that yacht? He said that with champagne on my collarbone, I looked like a model from Country E he kept as a mistress twenty years ago."
