Lu Shen stared at the girl who had an 'I'm slowly suffering from death by a thousand cuts' expression on her face.
Was his condition really that horrible?
Didn't this girl always persist to stay close to him? Even when he spoke harsh words to her, she never fluctuated in her love for him.
Now that he was giving her what she wanted, why did she look like she was being tortured? Shouldn't she be jumping up and down with happiness by now?
Lu Shen thought that women were really hard to understand.
Or is this simply what Zhang Yingyu meant by 'misrepresentation' in his Book of Swindles?
Lu Shen didn't lower his guard, and treated the transaction like a 10 billion yuan deal.
Who knew what kind of tricks this girl had up her sleeve?
Hui Yin, who had no idea that she was being treated as a con artist by the other party, was having some problems of her own.
Is being Lu Shen's personal maid the only choice she had? Even if she didn't go to the audition, she knew that the next time she had another project that he didn't agree with, Lu Shen would have no qualms in shooting it down.
With his status, there was no one beyond his power that he couldn't squash like an insignificant ant. Against a formidable enemy like Lu Shen, they were all crushed dry weeds and smashed rotten wood.
But Hui Yin still didn't want to bee his personal servant.
"I can..." Hui Yin squeezed the rest of the words out. "I can live with you. But I can't bee your personal maid. That's my bottom line."
This was already her greatest concession towards him. With this, she only needed to sleep at his place. Once the sun rose up, she would leave immediately, and only return back when it was late at night.
She could just stay in her room and never see him; even if they did live together, with his busy schedule, he would surely have no time to stick around.
Before she even finished speaking, Lu Shen's face was enveloped with cold frost. He chuckled, but it was deep and dark.
Hui Yin thought it sounded slightly menacing.
"Do you really hate being with me that much?" he asked.
Yes!
"N—No," Hui Yin said out loud, because she didn't want to die yet.
"Really?" He didn't move closer to her, but Hui Yin still took a step back.
His eyes were so cold that her whole body became numb.
"Alright, you don't have to bee my personal maid. But you need to fulfill your promise of living together with me. I'll have my lawyer write up a contract that we'll both sign tomorrow. Any breach of the deal on your side and..."
Lu Shen's mouth curved up into a smile that wasn't really one. It was terrifying.
"...there'll be punishment."
