Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Don’t Pretend in Front of Me_1

"Just came to see you," Liu Chao settled on the sofa beside her, "I’ve called you so many times these past days, why didn’t you answer any of them?"

In that time, he had been dealing with his father’s funeral arrangements and hadn’t come to the company.

But he hadn’t forgotten to try contacting Chen Yuting.

Yet, each time he called, Chen Yuting wouldn’t pick up.

Today, after having taken care of his father’s final matters, he came over.

"I’ve been busy and didn’t notice," Chen Yuting’s expression remained unchanged.

It wasn’t that she hadn’t noticed, but that she didn’t want to answer Liu Chao’s calls.

"Oh, after you get off work today, let’s go grab some dinner," Liu Chao, knowing full well that Chen Yuting was making excuses, did not expose her but extended the invitation instead.

"No, my mom asked me to come home for dinner tonight, and I already promised her," Chen Yuting shook her head in refusal.

"Oh, then how about tomorrow night?" Liu Chao asked indifferently.

"I have plans tomorrow night as well," Chen Yuting shook her head.

"And the day after that?" Liu Chao asked nonchalantly.

"I’m also busy the day after," Chen Yuting bit her red lip.

"Then you tell me when you’re free. Pick a date, and I’ll come find you then," Liu Chao spoke calmly.

He knew Chen Yuting was making up excuses to string him along, and he wanted to see just how far she could take it.

"Liu Chao, it’s better if you don’t come looking for me anymore," Chen Yuting said with a bitten lip.

"What do you mean?" Liu Chao knowingly asked.

"My meaning is very clear, I can’t agree to be your girlfriend, and I hope you stop setting your heart on me," Chen Yuting said.

"Why, have I not been good to you?" Liu Chao did not get angry but asked with a smile instead.

This outcome, he had already anticipated it during the days Chen Yuting kept dodging his calls.

"It’s not that, I just feel we’re not suitable for each other," Chen Yuting said.

"Haha, ’not suitable,’ what a great excuse," Liu Chao laughed loudly, shaking his head, "Forget it, I won’t beat around the bush with you. Be my girlfriend for three months, and I’ll give you ten million, how about it?"

Chen Yuting’s face instantly grew cold: "Liu Chao, you may be rich, but you can’t insult me."

What was this, if she agreed, how would she differ from those who sell themselves?

She admittedly valued material things, but she would absolutely never accept such an insult.

"I don’t feel it’s an insult. I give you money, you become my girlfriend, it’s simply fulfilling mutual needs. You know, in this society, I could use ten million to sleep with so many beautiful girls, and they’d all be ’mint condition,’ while you’re not even ’mint condition.’ Giving you ten million is already overestimating you," Liu Chao said with a smile.

"Liu Chao, is this your true nature?!" Chen Yuting’s face turned even colder.

"Hehe, if you say it is, then that’s fine with me. I don’t care," he replied.

"During this time, I’ve been pursuing you, but you’ve never agreed."

"Originally, I didn’t mind, and I could just play this game with you until I got you into bed," he continued.

"After all, if you don’t agree, there are other women to keep me company every night."

"But now, I’m not in the mood to keep playing with you. Let’s just be upfront about it, fulfill each other’s needs, that makes things simpler, doesn’t it?"

Liu Chao shrugged his shoulders, saying cheerfully.

"You... I don’t want to see you, get out!" Chen Yuting was so angry she was trembling all over.

Even though she knew Liu Chao’s true nature, that he could never be as devoted as he seemed, she had not expected him to say such words.

"Leave?" Liu Chao jeered, "Chen Yuting, have you forgotten? I am the guild’s largest shareholder. You were appointed as the vice president because of me. Do you think you can command me?"

Hearing this, Chen Yuting didn’t say anything else, picked up her bag, and stood up to leave.

Since Liu Chao had made his stance clear, there was no way she could continue working at the Huya Guild.

"Chen Yuting, you should really consider what I just said. Ten million isn’t that easy to earn, and you might never make that much in your lifetime," Liu Chao said.

Chen Yuting didn’t speak and continued walking towards the exit.

"You’re not fantasizing about getting back together with Shen Dong, are you?"

As Chen Yuting reached the door, Liu Chao asked.

"What I do is none of your business," Chen Yuting stopped, turned around, and said coldly, "Liu Chao, you always bragged in front of me about how great you are, about how pathetic Shen Dong is, but you always ended up getting slapped in the face. Looking back now, it’s just laughable."

Liu Chao wasn’t angry; he just smiled and said, "It seems you really are considering it, no wonder you can refuse my ten million. But do you think Shen Dong would accept a shameless woman like you? You left him when he had nothing, and now that he has achieved success, you want to come back. Do you think that’s possible?"

"Whether it’s possible or not, it’s none of your business!" Chen Yuting said coldly.

"It may be none of my business, but let me remind you of the kind of woman you are. Don’t try to act innocent in front of me. Offering you ten million to be my girlfriend for three months was already giving you a lot of credit," Liu Chao persisted.

"Liu Chao, no matter what kind of woman I am, I wouldn’t be like you, who angered your own father to death," Chen Yuting retorted with a cold laugh.

At these words, the smile froze on Liu Chao’s face.

This was a sore point for him.

His father had indeed been driven to his death by him.

If it hadn’t been for him, without selling the shares of Huya Guild, his father wouldn’t have died.

In the past, because he had listened to his advice, his father missed the opportunity to invest in the Ghana Gold Mine Project and became the laughingstock of the investment world.

Now, by driving his own father to death, they had both become the laughingstock of the investment world.

Even many employees of Wansheng Venture Capital talked behind his back.

This was the last thing he could stand to hear.

"What did you say? Say it again," Liu Chao said, his face dark as storm clouds.

"I said, you beast, you killed your father!" Chen Yuting said coldly.

"You bitch, I’ll kill you!" Liu Chao immediately charged at her and slapped Chen Yuting across the face.

Slap!

Chen Yuting’s fair cheek instantly swelled up, her head buzzed, and she nearly fell to the ground.

"Liu Chao, you actually hit me?!" Regaining her senses, Chen Yuting covered her cheek, disbelief written all over her face.

She had anticipated that Liu Chao would be angry, even furious, but she had not expected that he would actually hit her.

If she had known, she wouldn’t have provoked Liu Chao like this.

"You whore, even slapping you is too light!" Liu Chao said with a cold laugh, and slapped Chen Yuting again.

This time, both of Chen Yuting’s cheeks swelled up.

No one from the company came to stop the commotion.

"Bastard, just wait, I’m calling the police to arrest you," Chen Yuting quickly ran to one side, took out her phone, and called the emergency number.

"Go ahead and report, I’m not afraid," Liu Chao said with a disdainful sneer, confident and unafraid.
