Chapter 17: Mr. Duan, You Don’t Need to Pretend to Be a Gentleman to Me, Do You?

Zhu Miaomiao was still terrified.

It took her a long time to find her voice, she made her tone steady, “I’m fine.”

Duan Siyu’s long fingers gently rubbed her cheeks, then her eyes, wiping away the few tears she had shed, “Be good, don’t be afraid.”

To outsiders, this scene might seem sweet and romantic.

But only Zhu Miaomiao knew that it was coated with arsenic.

She had to swallow it with a stiff neck.

Duan Sirui was immediately taken to the hospital.

The media, cameras, they kept taking pictures of him.

Duan Sirui was so embarrassed, even though he was in so much pain that he couldn’t speak, he still couldn’t help but cover his private parts.

–

“Mr. Duan, the jade pendant you bought.”

As they left the auction hall, the organizer put the jade pendant in a beautifully packaged box and personally handed it to Duan Siyu.

The jade pendant was sold for over thirty million.

It was crystal clear, carved from the finest white jade.

It was Duan Siyu’s mother’s dowry.

The Duan Group had once experienced a period of economic crisis.

His mother, in order to help her husband overcome the difficulties, pawned her most precious dowry jade pendant.

Later, the crisis passed, they wanted to redeem it, but the jade pendant had already been transferred to some wealthy businessman –

Now it had finally appeared, Duan Siyu naturally had to redeem it for his mother.

Maybe it could make her feel better and improve her condition.

Duan Siyu took the jade pendant, he politely thanked the organizer.

–

Leaving the auction hall, the night wind blew from the wharf, it was cold and accompanied by the salty taste of the beach.

They got into the car, which had heating.

Zhu Miaomiao’s body was still cold, her fingers were almost frozen.

After a while.

She opened her phone, she was about to call her grandmother and tell her that she wouldn’t be going back tonight.

But she was attracted by a piece of news.

Top wealthy families are already the focus of attention, let alone the Duan family, which is the top of the top.

The situation was serious, these keywords immediately topped the news in mainland China, they were on the top of Weibo’s hot searches.

This night was truly spectacular.

Assistant Meng Huai was driving.

Zhu Miaomiao and Duan Siyu were sitting in the back seat, they were a little close.

She clenched her phone, she turned her head and looked at Duan Siyu.

The man’s contours were smooth and sharp, he was moving through the city lights, he was sometimes bright, sometimes dark.

You could vaguely see his thick eyelashes drooping, his eye sockets were deep, making him look even more beautiful and seductive.

Unfortunately, he was a black heart.

Zhu Miaomiao knew that Duan Siyu was clearly using her tonight.

He wanted to deal with his younger brother.

But he couldn’t deal with him directly.

He could only lead his brother to make a mistake.

He gave her a ring in public, making everyone think that she was precious to him –

The purpose was to make his brother lose his mind, to shift the blame to her.

This night, Duan Siyu seemed not to be involved, he was clean and upright, but in fact, all the triggers were set by him.

He knew that Duan Sirui would try to get to him through the woman he liked, to make him suffer.

So even if she didn’t go to the bathroom tonight, she would be targeted by her brother somewhere else.

In short, the situation was completely controlled by Duan Siyu.

The waters of the wealthy families are really deep.

Duan Siyu noticed Zhu Miaomiao’s gaze fixed on him.

He met her gaze with a leisurely air.

His thin lips slightly lifted, he said flatly, “What?”

Zhu Miaomiao took the ring off her hand and handed it to him, “Nothing.”

“Here you go.”

This diamond ring, although beautiful, didn’t belong to her.

Duan Siyu didn’t take it, his black eyes were like the falling night, “Hmm?”

“The play is over, Mr. Duan, you don’t need to pretend to be a gentleman with me, do you?”

Zhu Miaomiao said straight to the point.

To say she didn’t care was a lie.

Because she had been molested, so after she turned eighteen, she taught herself some basic martial arts for a year, she made herself stronger, she had the ability to face an adult male –

But what if she hadn’t learned those skills?

Tonight, she would probably have become a victim in the struggle of the wealthy families.

Zhu Miaomiao shouldn’t have complained, after all, it was the path she chose, but she just felt inexplicably wronged.

Duan Siyu’s sparkling eyes dimmed, he knew that Zhu Miaomiao had discovered it.

He didn’t need to pretend.

He raised his eyebrows, his tone was unhurried, “You’re very smart.”

“But you’re not using it in the right place.”

“Sometimes, pretending to be stupid can make your path go further, understand?”

These words were simply laughable.

Zhu Miaomiao: “You mean, I was used by you, and I have to pretend I don’t know anything, swallow my grievances, right? Why?”

Duan Siyu paused, he took the ring from Zhu Miaomiao’s hand and grabbed her wrist.

He put it back on.

Zhu Miaomiao wanted to pull her hand back, but it was held even tighter.

She watched helplessly as the ring reappeared on her finger.

Then she heard him say casually:

“Your grandmother is staying in the best ward in Beijing, and then the best kidney surgeons in the country and abroad will operate on her -“

Hearing this, Zhu Miaomiao instantly became obedient.

Her grandmother was her backbone.

She needed Duan Siyu’s help.

So even if she was really… something happened to her tonight… she couldn’t do anything about it.

Zhu Miaomiao thought of this, a faint chill appeared in her heart.

Controlled by capital, suppressed by power, she still had to smile.

“What if he really forced me?” Zhu Miaomiao choked, pretending to be heartbroken, “Will you still want me?”

In this matter, Duan Siyu was the one who was guilty.

She had to make full use of this.

Duan Siyu raised his eyes, he looked at Zhu Miaomiao with clear and sharp eyes, “First, you won’t let him bully you.”

“Second, Duan Sirui has been changing women frequently these years, his energy has already been drained, he’s not very good in that area, to put it simply, he’s impotent.”

“I can appear in front of you before he gets hard.”

Zhu Miaomiao’s eyes cooled.

She felt a little better after hearing this.

But she was still angry.

Duan Siyu propped his chin, his eyes held a faint smile, he took out a black card and put it in Zhu Miaomiao’s palm, “Unlimited credit, buy whatever you like, consider it compensation, okay?”

His way of solving problems was really simple and brutal.

But it has to be said, it was very effective.

Who doesn’t love money?

Zhu Miaomiao loved it to death.

Working part-time for a day, she only earned a hundred yuan, with Duan Siyu, she could easily earn an unimaginable amount of money, except for the danger, it was easy to lose her life, it was a high-risk industry, but it had no other flaws.

Zhu Miaomiao wouldn’t learn to be a naive female lead, she wouldn’t proudly refuse the black card he handed her.

She was just an ordinary person who loved money.

So when he handed it to her, she didn’t hesitate to take it.

She also said, “Alright, I’ll forgive you for now.”

Meng Huai, who was driving, saw the movement in the back.

He thought he had heard wrong.

This little girl is forgiving who? Boss?

No one in all of Australia dared to say that.

After all, Boss’s status, he doesn’t need anyone’s forgiveness.

She’s really crazy.

The key is that Boss didn’t get angry, he even chuckled.

The world has really changed…

Not long after, the car stopped in front of Zhuwan Garden in Australia.

A wealthy area, a geomantic treasure, just a piece of land is worth over one hundred million.

And Duan Siyu owns an entire detached villa here.

Zhu Miaomiao accompanied him into the villa, immediately, servants lined up to greet them.

It was exaggerated.

Duan Siyu took her hand, they walked inside, until they reached the master bedroom.

He closed the door, before Zhu Miaomiao could react, a long kiss pressed down on her.
