Chapter 648: Chapter 648

Five million was indeed a large sum for Zhang Yang, but it wasn’t an amount he couldn’t come up with.

With the money Xu Mengyan had given him, plus the dividends Chen Yun shared, and a little help from Jiang Meiren or Shen Mange, he could raise the funds.

However, Guo Da sneered, "Zhang Yang, do you not understand the situation? It’s not just about repaying the money now. Pei Changjiang’s blackmail and extortion case is established. Ha, as I’ve already mentioned, even if the money is returned, Pei Changjiang cannot escape from it."

Zhang Yang certainly understood this point, so he said to Guo Da: "Fine, then I’ll talk to your older brother about it."

Guo Da’s expression darkened, unsure if his big brother would help him.

At this moment, Zhang Yang had already called Guo Qiyu.

What Zhang Yang didn’t know was that Guo Qiyu had just woken up from Xu Mengyan’s bed.

And he had learned that Xu Mengyan’s illness had been cured by Zhang Yang, for which Guo Qiyu was grateful to him.

Knowing that Zhang Yang was calling about the five million, he generously said, "Don’t worry about it. Let’s consider that money the consultation fee for treating your sister-in-law’s illness. Also, about the mishap yesterday, I hope you, brother Zhang Yang, don’t take it to heart."

Guo Qiyu knew not to underestimate Zhang Yang’s current abilities, and naturally did not want to offend him if he could avoid it.

Today’s issue with Guo Da was an opportunity for him to step down gracefully.

Zhang Yang also said, "Then, thank you Brother Guo."

Zhang Yang was on speakerphone, so Guo Da heard every word loud and clear.

He immediately got upset, "Big brother, how can you do this? You had just promised me..."

Before Guo Da could finish his sentence, Guo Qiyu scolded him, "Enough. We’ll talk about your issue later. Zhang Yang is your sister-in-law’s benefactor. You had better show some respect, or don’t blame me for being impolite to you."

Guo Da’s face was filled with frustration; he hadn’t expected that a single sentence from Zhang Yang would actually make his brother switch sides.

Guo Da couldn’t say much more, but after Zhang Yang hung up the phone, Guo Da still spitefully said, "Zhang Yang, don’t get too smug, we’ll see about this."

Having said that, Guo Da left, seething with anger.

Zhang Yang also didn’t expect Guo Qiyu to be so easy to talk to this time.

It seemed that the cure of Xu Mengyan’s illness had indeed pleased Guo Qiyu.

The thought that Guo Qiyu and Xu Mengyan may have just been intimate left Zhang Yang feeling somewhat sour.

But he hadn’t lost out; after all, he had had a fulfilling evening with Xu Mengyan the night before.

What Zhang Yang did not know was that at this moment, Guo Qiyu was still somewhat confused.

Looking at Xu Mengyan, who was getting dressed, he couldn’t help but ask, "How come I don’t remember what happened last night?"

"You were dead drunk last night, what could you possibly remember?"

"But, Zhang Yang said the chances of conception from last night’s endeavor are very high, so you don’t have to worry for a while, we’ll just silently wait for the result."

To this, Guo Qiyu had no objections, but couldn’t help saying, "Shall we try again?"

He also noticed that recently, Xu Mengyan seemed to be glowing with even more radiance.

But Xu Mengyan flatly refused, though not so blatantly, merely asking, "Can you even perform? Don’t blame my lack of allure if you can’t get it up."

Guo Qiyu was embarrassed; after one round, he needed three or four days to recover his vigour.

He was definitely not up for it now, not to mention that there was a mistress outside waiting for his affection.

So he had to simply go with the flow and say, "Let’s hope it really works this time."

"By the way, you’d better limit your contact with Zhang Yang in the future. A girlfriend here, a girlfriend there—he’s quite the playboy,"

Xu Mengyan said very calmly, "This just goes to show that not a single man is any good."

Guo Qiyu was rendered speechless; he knew Xu Mengyan must have discovered his affairs outside.

But as it was an arranged marriage, with substantial family interests at stake, neither would suggest divorce.

Having a child would naturally solidify their relationship even further.

So when it came to Xu Mengyan’s illness, Guo Qiyu was genuinely concerned. If Zhang Yang really could cure Xu Mengyan’s illness, Guo Qiyu would be truly grateful.

Therefore, five million as a consultation fee really wasn’t much to him.

Seeing Xu Mengyan dressed so beautifully, Guo Qiyu couldn’t help but ask, "Where are you going today?"

"To the beauty salon. Is there a problem?" Xu Mengyan retorted.

"No, go ahead. Call me if you need anything; I’ve got to get going too," Guo Qiyu said.

At that moment, Xu Mengyan reminded, "Keep that Guo Da in check. Don’t let him provoke Zhang Yang again. Zhang Yang is my benefactor. This is already the second time. If it happens again, don’t blame me for turning my back on you."

Guo Qiyu also felt a headache coming on but replied, "Alright, I got it."

Xu Mengyan nodded in satisfaction and then cheerfully left the house.

She did not let Guo Qiyu touch her last night; this morning, she only feigned intimacy to deceive him.

Apart from deceiving Guo Qiyu, Xu Mengyan also lied to Zhang Yang.

She told Zhang Yang she would take contraceptives, but in reality, she did not.

If it were about having children, Xu Mengyan naturally wanted to have a child with the man she loved.

Meanwhile, unknown to Zhang Yang about what Xu Mengyan was thinking, he was comforting Pei Yuyan in his arms.

"Zhang Yang, I’m sorry for causing you trouble again," she said.

Zhang Yang chuckled and replied, "It’s nothing."

Pei Yuyan continued with worry, "What about the five million?"

"I still need to pay that five million back to the Guo Family. I don’t want any more ties with them," he said.

Pei Yuyan nodded too, "Let’s find a way to chase after my dad."

Zhang Yang thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Senior sister, do you want to turn your dad back to the right path?"

"Of course, I dream of it. But I feel like my dad has gone completely mad. Otherwise, he wouldn’t resort to extortion," she lamented.

Zhang Yang smiled, "Your dad isn’t beyond saving. At least he chose to risk extortion instead of using you for money, which shows there’s hope—he still cares about you, his daughter."

On that point, he’s much better than Zhang Tiande.

So Zhang Yang was also willing to try and save Pei Changjiang.

Pei Yuyan gave a wry smile, "My dad was really good to me before, but everything changed after he got hooked on gambling."

Zhang Yang said with a mischievous smile, "If you don’t mind your dad going through some pain, shall I let him experience the cruelty of this world?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuyan immediately replied without hesitation, "Zhang Yang, I’ll listen to you. If my dad dares to extort this time, who knows if he’ll resort to robbery or murder next time. So do whatever you want, I support you."

"Good, remember you said this," Zhang Yang chuckled and then made a call to Jin Tuantuan.
