Chapter 1984: Unwritten Rules?

Mo Fei was convinced after hearing Qian Yikun’s explanation.

After all, Qian Yikun was a sly old fox too. He must have thought things through before uttering them.

“Why are you helping me so much?” Mo Fei pretended to be confused even though it was pretty obvious.

Naturally, Qian Yikun knew what she was thinking. He lowered his head and bit her lips. “I’m not helping you for nothing. You’ll be my payment.” As Qian Yikun spoke, he rose to his feet from the sofa with Mo Fei in his arms.

“Hey, what is this hidden rule you’re playing at?” Mo Fei called out somewhat insincerely.

Qian Yikun merely responded by peering at her before carrying her into the bedroom. Then, he closed the door with his foot.

If sleeping with his wife was considered a hidden rule, then he would be more than happy to do so.

Meanwhile, Dong Feng’s house was in a mess. The computer was still on, and the image of soundwaves on the screen was vibrating.

“You said that you’ll ruin that man’s reputation,” Dong Feng demanded loudly. “But now? He’s still fine!”

“Do you think he’ll still be fine once Ding Haonan collapses?” The voice that traversed through the computer sounded robotic, sending ripples across the soundwaves.

“He has nothing to do with Ding Haonan in the first place. So what if Ding Haonan collapses?” Dong Feng could tell that Ding Junqi worked independently and had nothing much to do with the Ding family. “I know. Your goal is only the Ding family. Now that you’ve achieved your goal, you don’t care about my issues anymore, do you?” As Dong Feng spoke, the expression on his face was horrifyingly vicious as though he finally understood a part of the truth.

“No, why do you think I’m not helping you? You just want that woman, Le Tian.” The soundwave continued to ripple, and the metallic and monotonous voice echoed in the room.

“Then, tell me. What comes next?” Scandals were useless now because Ding Junqi was not afraid of scandals.

“If you want Le Tian, don’t you still have Mu Qi by your side?”

Mu Qi?

Dong Feng suddenly thought of something. A woman like Mu Qi must have her reservations about a man like Ding Junqi.

Therefore—

After giving it some thought, Dong Feng knew what he had to do.

Perhaps he should see Mu Qi first.

The next morning, Qian Yikun pulled Mo Fei up to clean up. They were going to the police station later.

Mo Fei sat up and squinted at Qian Yikun. Qian Yikun carried her into the bathroom. “Hurry up and clean up. You’re late for work.”

She was just a CEO who was removed from her post. What would she be late for?

However, after thinking about her tasks for the day, she decided to wash up anyway.

During breakfast, Qian Yikun relayed the situation between the two real estate companies to her. Although they were not huge companies, they still received many renovation projects annually.

Mo Fei listened to Qian Yikun in a daze until Qian Yikun knocked on the table with his chopsticks. “Are you listening to me?”

“I’m listening. I’m listening.” Mo Fei answered insincerely. “I have you here with me, don’t I? Why are you so anxious?”

As she said that, she kicked Qian Yikun’s leg.

Qian Yikun, “…”

That was a good one. He could not argue with that.

When she was in America, she had no choice. She was alone.

Now that she had Qian Yikun, why must she memorize this nonsense? She was not stupid.

“Are you refusing to fulfill your end of the bargain after using the unwritten rule? Are you forfeiting payment?” Just as she finished speaking, Qian Yikun reciprocated with a kick in her calf. “Ouch— What are you doing?”

Qian Yikun looked at her coldly. “Sooner or later, I’ll make you into a human swine[1]. We’ll see what you can do with only your mouth left.”
