Chapter 141 The Simp Stand-in Quits (15)
Xia Mingwei immediately saw what Li Nianyun was thinking and smiled with interest.
It seems she can't be the matchmaker anymore, but she could try being a breakup guru.
"Do you want to give it a try? To test your standing in Ming-ge's heart!"
Li Nianyun hadn't expected Xia Mingwei to say anything nice, but Xia Mingwei's words were just too tempting! She also wanted to know what her place was in Lu Ming's heart.
"How to try?"
As Li Nianyun spoke, a hint of doubt flickered in her eyes. But the instant she asked the question without hesitation revealed her truest thoughts.
Xiao Ba: Is this what they mean by "the body is always more honest than the mouth"?
Xia Mingwei: Never underestimate a woman's curiosity. Because of this curiosity, she'll do something big sooner or later! Just you wait and see!
Seeing that Li Nianyun had become interested, Xia Mingwei was no longer in a hurry.
She leaned back in her chair, crossed her legs, and said casually, "Want to know how to test your brother Ming's sincerity? It's simple! Ten million, and I'll show you the method!"
Upon hearing this, Li Nianyun nearly jumped out of her skin in astonishment. "Ten million? Why don't you just rob someone?"
"If you think it's too expensive, then there's nothing I can do!"
Xia Mingwei had no intention of bargaining with her and made a move to leave.
Li Nianyun quickly grabbed Xia Mingwei's hand, "Don't go yet, let me think about it! Ten million is not a small amount, you have to give me some time!"
Upon hearing Li Nianyun's words, Xia Mingwei sensed an opportunity. She didn't hesitate, continuing with a seductive tone, "Use ten million to test Lu Ming's sincerity. If you win, you can confidently become Mrs. Lu! If you lose, you can see through Lu Ming's true intentions and cut your losses early. Either way, it's a highly profitable deal for you! Ten million isn't much!"
Under Xia Mingwei's nagging, Li Nianyun quickly made a plan in her mind.
She had already spent 50 million to get Xia Mingwei to leave Ming-gege. Although her assets were more than 50 million, 50 million in cash was still a considerable sum! To pay this 50 million fee, she had almost spent all the pocket money she had saved over the years.
Fortunately, Xia Mingwei kept her promise and severed ties with Ming-gege. In that case, her 50 million yuan had served its purpose; it wasn't a waste! But now she's being asked to come up with another 10 million yuan? Isn't that practically asking her to give up her life?
But Xia Mingwei's method for testing Ming-gege's true feelings was something she was incredibly curious about! She had liked Ming-gege for so many years, and although they hadn't confessed their feelings, she knew that Ming-gege always had feelings for her! She knew that Ming-gege was angry about her resolute decision to study abroad back then. So when she saw Ming-gege finding a substitute, her first instinct was to defend him.
But Xia Mingwei said today that Brother Ming wanted her to continue to be involved in their relationship, which made her see Lu Ming in a bit unclear! Could it be that all these years of feelings were fake, just wishful thinking on her part?
She knew in her heart that her family background was a good match for Lu Ming's family. If her family proposed a marriage alliance, she estimated that Lu Ming's family would not object.
But a marriage without love is something she has never wanted. She feels that if she were to get married, it would be because both of them love each other, not because one of them compromises.
She hoped her marriage would be the same, so she kept waiting.
She waited for Ming-gege to settle things with those around him, and for him to give her a reasonable explanation. But what had she received so far?
Ming-gege, who kept saying he only loved her, found a body double who looked just like him. And after she returned, he even tried to get entangled with his double!
If she hadn't known about this, it would have been fine, but she had already learned the truth from Xia Mingwei, so how could she swallow this insult!
"Have you thought it through? Are you going to do this deal with me? Are you going to spend this ten million?"
Seeing that the time was almost right, Xia Mingwei asked the question again.
Although Li Nianyun struggled internally, she ultimately gave in, "I'll spend it! But if it's not worth the money, I'll ask for a refund!"
"Don't worry about that! I can't guarantee anything else, but I assure you that you'll get excellent value for your money!"
The thought of losing another ten million made Li Nianyun feel like her heart was bleeding. To comfort herself, she could only try to think of things on the bright side.
If this ten million can help me see Lu Ming's heart clearly, then it will be worth the money!
"So what are you planning to do next?" Li Nianyun asked, looking at Xia Mingwei who was still relaxed.
"It's not about what I plan to do! It's about what you plan to do!"
"Me?" Li Nianyun pointed to herself and asked incredulously.
"Don't you want to know your importance in Lu Ming's heart? I have a method. Follow this method, and I guarantee it will work!"
"What method is it? Tell me quickly!" Li Nianyun was anxious and couldn't wait to hear the method from Xia Mingwei.
"Just ignore him for now!"
Now it was Li Nianyun's turn to be surprised. She looked at Xia Mingwei with suspicion, "Will your method work? You wouldn't be thinking of a bad idea to push me out so you and Ming-gege can continue your loving relationship, would you?"
Hearing this, Xia Mingwei almost vomited blood from anger. Sometimes, she really wanted to crack open Li Nianyun's love-struck head and see what was inside!
"Don't worry! Even if every man in the world died, I wouldn't give your Ming-gege a second glance! Besides, I'm very loyal to my promises! I won't go back on my word!"
Li Nianyun felt relieved upon hearing this.
"Alright! I agree to your method! Is there anything else I need to do?"
Just to be on the safe side, Xia Mingwei felt it was necessary to reiterate her requirements to Li Nianyun, who was obsessed with love.
"The method I'm about to describe requires you to completely ignore Lu Ming for the next three months! No matter what he says or does, you must treat him like a dead man! If you do anything you shouldn't and Lu Ming notices something, I can't guarantee the results!"
"Alright, I got it! Is there anything else?"
Xia Mingwei lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then seemed to remember something. She looked up and said with a smile, "If you hadn't reminded me, I would have completely forgotten about this! Remember to transfer ten million to my account early tonight!"
Hearing Xia Mingwei's words, Li Nianyun almost ground her teeth to powder. "I know! Just wait to collect your money!"
