BXBX NOVEL Chapter 115 - 115: Are You Going to Be Cocky?
“Shen Ning, don’t push your luck.” Li Zhenting’s face darkened.”
It was already the middle of the night, and he was already giving her a lot of face by coming personally.
“What did I do?” Shen Ning scoffed.” What inch did you give me? How much did I get? We were husband and wife. When we divorced, I left with nothing. I worked as a free nanny in the Li family for two years. What did I get? Other than you cheating on me and abandoning me, what else do 1 have?”
Shen Ning’s eyes lit up as she thought about the hardships she had gone through with the children all these years. It was as if the scars of the past had been opened in her heart, and blood was dripping.
She would never forget how cold and heartless the man she once loved was to her!
Fortunately, she no longer loved him and regarded him as her life!
Li Zhenting was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he took out a check from his pocket.”How much do you want?”
She was the one who ‘died’ back then. It wasn’t like he wasn’t willing to give it to her!
“Forget it.” Shen Ning was expressionless.” You will never be able to give me what I want. Didn’t you say that I only married you because I was trying my best? Don’t worry, everything in the past will be forgotten. But from now on, 1 will take everything that belongs to me, not a single cent less.”
Li Zhenting narrowed his eyes.
This woman was really pretentious. She wanted money, but when it was offered, she declined!
He put away the check and sneered. However, you have to report to my house tomorrow morning. I’m officially hiring you to be my son’s tutor.”
If it wasn’t for his son’s illness and his mother’s threats, he wouldn’t have lowered himself to make this trip.
He turned around and left.
“Stop right there.” Shen Ning looked at his tall and cold back and shouted at him angrily.
Li Zhenting stopped and turned around.
“Mr. Li, do you really think that having money gives you the right to command me?” She spoke with an icy tone.
This man asked her to become his son’s private tutor without even using the word ‘please.’ Did he really think he was someone special? The Emperor of Heaven?
“What’s wrong? Now that I’m here, are you going to be cocky?”He raised his eyebrows and was a little impatient.
She had volunteered to go, and now that he agreed, she seemed unhappy.
Now that she had gotten what she wanted, she was unwilling.
“Who told you that I must go? Where does your confidence come from? Is this an invitation or an order? You have no right to command me.” Shen Ning held her head high, not giving an inch.
“Do you expect a welcoming ceremony from me?” Li Zhenting’s lips curved into a mischievous smile.
Shen Ning sneered, “Even if it’s an offer, both parties should have terms and conditions, shouldn’t they?”
Li Zhenting paused, likely understanding her point.
It was all about money, wasn’t it!
“Alright, what conditions do you have? How much salary do you want?”Li Zhenting walked back.
Shen Ning’s expression softened slightly.
“First of all, you should know that Gu Qi can’t leave me. Now that it has reached a critical moment, my focus has to be here.”
Li Zhenting frowned, “Are you suggesting that taking care of my son is just a small part of your life, something on the side?”
Shen Ning glanced at him, “Mr. Li, you have wealth and power, you don’t need to struggle for a living. But what about me? 1 have responsibilities, both young and old to care for. I must earn a living, and besides, Gu Qi’s company is currently in a state of disarray. How much time do you think I can spare to take care of your son?”
“You’re married?” Li Zhenting’s eyes flashed with surprise, and his face darkened.
Shen Ning pursed her lips and quickly changed the subject, “Mr. Li, do you think what I’m saying makes sense?”
“If you’re so busy, why are you competing to take care of my son now that I’ve come to ask you?” He challenged.
“But it was you who came to request my help,” she asserted.
Li Zhenteng swallowed hard, choked by her words. “Don’t try to deceive me.. If it weren’t for your involvement with my son, would he remember you, and would we be in this situation today?”
