Perfect Pampered Marriage: Good Morning, Hubby

Give It To Someone Else

Yin Tangyi only felt alive when Li Shengxia was around. Only in her presence could he hear his heart beating again, making him aware that he was a living person instead of a walking corpse…

He was so close, so close to spending the rest of his life with this woman. However, before he realized what was happening, he already found her in another man’s embrace. There was no way he could be indifferent to that. How could he? He had once pursued her tirelessly and passionately…

The man tried to make their paths cross again in order to bring her back into his life. He was so close to the finishing line but everything fell through in the end…

Yin Tangyi was still lost in reminiscence…

Simultaneously, Mo Nianchen walked out with Li Shengxia by his side, his narrowed eyes filled with a gaze of danger. He clearly felt the way her body tensed up and tried to avoid his touch earlier, not forgetting the hint of surprise that flashed across her eyes when the other man walked into the room. It was because of these reasons that he felt a heavy stone being weighed down on his chest, making him gasping for air.

Was that the man she had fancied?

Whereas he was the person she loathed the most…

There was nothing much she could do other than look silently at the person she loved the most.

All while the person she despised was pulling her closer in his arms.

So what? She still only had eyes for the person she loved, even if Mo Nianchen had his arms wrapped around her right this very moment.

He was living in a paradox. He had feelings for her but simultaneously hated himself for having feelings for her.

He squeezed down firmly on her shoulders and the woman flinched at the slight pain. “Don’t forget your place,” he said coldly.

Did he need to remind her of her status right now?

She replied after recollecting her thoughts, “I’m clear about that.”

She was only a toy, but still, she was always reminded to be loyal to her owner.?No other owner apart from Mo Nianchen would be so arrogant to demand absolute loyalty from their toys.

“Should I give you a minute to catch up with him?” He said simply but every word reeked of danger.

It was evidently a veiled question. His actions clearly expressed that he did not wish her to be related with Yin Tangyi in any way.

He had practiced what he preached just now in order to remind her of the consequences of infuriating him. The experience was still fresh in her memory.

“No need for that. He’s just something that I’ve discarded,” she answered.

There was no point in trying to fix a mistake because the past would only repeat itself. The obstacles she could not get through before still existed, thus a second chance would not yield different results.

Just like the way she and Mo Nianchen ended up in the same toxic cycle even on the second try.

She was still only his toy, a defeated loser that failed to struggle free from within his control. He still would not love her, just like the last time. Nothing had changed and nothing probably would not in the future either.

The corners of his lips curled into a charming smile as if he was pleased with her answer.

Something that she had discarded…

He had his arm around her waist until they arrived at the designated seats. The charity auction officially began not long after that…

Yin Tangyi walked past the two of them casually and positioned himself in the seat in the last row.

The auction hall.

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome! Thank you for taking the time off your hectic schedule to attend today’s charity auction. All of the funds we collect today will be donated to charitable organizations. We’re commencing the auction today with a famous painting entitled The Dike In Spring, starting at the price of one million.

“One million ten thousand.”

“One million twenty thousand.

“One million fifty thousand.

“One million one hundred thousand.

“One million one hundred thousand. Any higher bids?”

“One million one hundred thousand going once, going twice, sold! Congratulations to bidder number nine in successfully bringing home The Dike In Spring. The second item we’re auctioning is an obsidian necklace named Devil, a work of an incredibly famous jewelry designer. It’s starting price is calling at three million…”

Why would someone name an obsidian jewel after a devil?

Someone from the crowd called out a higher bid but the absent-minded Li Shengxia did not notice that.

“Three million twenty thousand!” The voice belonged to Yin Tangyi. He thought this necklace would match Li Shengxia’s grace thus he wished to bring it home.

The amount of the bid shot up by twenty thousand. It seemed like Young Master Yin was definitely going to succeed.

Unexpectedly…

Three million fifty thousand,” said Mo Nianchen.

“Three million seventy thousand!”

“Four million!”

“Four million fifty thousand!”

“Five million!”

“Six million!!”

Everyone present was shocked into silence. Was it not too extravagant to spend six million for a necklace?

“Seven million!” Mo Nianchen said flatly.

“Seven – Seven million?” The host was taken aback.

“Seven million fifty thousand!”

“Eight million!”

“Ten million!!!” Yin Tangyi made the offer. The other man had already taken Shengxia away from him. He would not be allowed to acquire this necklace as well.

The crowd was astonished. The crown prince was bold. This must be what it meant to flush money down the toilet?

Li Shengxia frowned slightly. “Do you like this necklace so much?”

He raised his eyebrows at her. “What’s the matter? You don’t like it?”

She held her breath before asking tentatively. “Is it for me?”

“I don’t have much use for it,” he simply said.

No way, was he really thinking of bidding it for her? She could not accept this. Besides, it seemed like Yin Tangyi was determined to acquire it as well…

She made up her mind upon thinking of this. “But I don’t like it. You should give it to someone else.”

“Someone else?” A complicated emotion flashed across his eyes. He reckoned she was asking for a favor for Yin Tangyi.

Just not long ago, she called the man something that she had discarded. What a two-faced woman! The man twitched his brows into a frown.

Right this second, Yin Tangyi shouted, “Thirty million!”

She flinched at the unbelievably high bid. It appeared that the man really fancied this necklace.

“It’s not worth it to spend thirty million on that. Just give me cash if you really want to give me a present,” she said when Mo Nianchen did not reply.

The latter smiled coldly as if he had seen through her little scheme. “Well, if you don’t like it, I’ll stop bidding if you give me a kiss.”

The woman frowned at the unexpected request. She glanced around the room before turning to face him hesitantly. “In front of all these people?”

He ignored her entirely and spoke in a flat voice, “Forty…”

“Hang on!”
