After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Qiao Xing didn't know how long he had to drive, so he went to bed.

At almost [-] o'clock in the morning, Qiao Xing was woken up by the sound outside.

She rubbed her eyes and opened them. The light in the bedroom was still on. Qin Ce was still wearing headphones, but he was not in a meeting, but doing something else.

Qiao Xing ignored him, picked up his coat, put it on and walked out of the bedroom. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Wang Ye dragging Lily back.

"You're so annoying, can you please just leave me alone!" Lily broke away from Wang Ye's hand and fell down on the sofa. She seemed to have drunk too much.

Wang Ye suppressed his anger and said: "You are already hugging those men, and you still let me ignore you? Do you really think I am a green-headed bastard?"

"Can you not be so unpleasant when you say it? I just hugged you and didn't do anything else. Is that okay with you?"

Wang Ye laughed angrily at her words, "Hu Lili, we are going to get married soon! Just go out to drink and dance at the disco, but you are also cuddling with other men. Do you think it's appropriate?"

Lily rolled her eyes at him and said, "Is there anything inappropriate? I already told you, I just hugged you and didn't do anything else. Can you please stop making a fuss about it?"

"Am I making a fuss? I'm running around outside every day, and you go drinking with other men. What's the matter? I'll get married by myself, right?"

"Okay Wang Ye, what are you yelling about? With my conditions, I can't find any man I want? There are a lot of men better than you!"

"If I marry you, it's because I think highly of you. It's because your ancestral graves are smoking! Since you don't believe me, why are you still marrying me?"

Lily talked a lot, but Wang Ye couldn't get a word in. He stared at Lily angrily, with veins twitching on his forehead.

The living room was filled with invisible gunpowder smoke, and Qiao Xing did not dare to go out, fearing that she would be affected by the flames of war.

Wang Ye also lost his temper. He grabbed the water glass on the table and threw it at Lily.

It didn't hit Lily, but hit her feet. The quilt fell to pieces. Lily screamed in fright and huddled up on the sofa.

"That's enough for you. You promised me not to go to the bar, but what happened? When I was in the detention center, you never came to see me and went to dance with wild men. Now you're doing it blatantly, right?"

"You took the gift money and wanted to break up with me. Okay, I agreed, right? You came back to me again and said something to test me. Hu Lili, do you think I'm the one who was taken advantage of?"

Wang Ye is not a fool. Can he not feel whether Lily has him in her heart?

But this person is a bitch. The more the other person ignores him, the more he likes him.

Lily challenged his bottom line again and again. No matter how much he liked her, she had already worn him out!

Lily was in shock. She stared at the broken glass at her feet in a daze. She was half awake from the alcohol.

She swallowed, looked at Wang Ye with a pale face, and then remembered her true purpose.

Lily pursed her lips, she had a way of dealing with men.

After she woke up, she stopped arguing with Wang Ye and buried her head in her knees, sobbing quietly.

Wang Ye was stunned for a moment, looking at Lily's trembling shoulders, his anger seemed to be extinguished by a basin of water.

He was suddenly at a loss and opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

In the end, he struggled for a long time before holding back a few words, "Why are you crying?"

This sentence doesn't contain the anger from before, only the lack of confidence.

Lily ignored him and cried alone for a while. Then she raised her head and glanced at Wang Ye with pity.

"Wang Ye, don't you know why I'm crying? It's my fault that I went out to drink, but I'm even more sad that you don't trust me."

There was a short circuit in Wang Ye's mind for a moment, "You...I, you are already hugging another man, how can I trust you?"

"I've already said that we are just a hug between friends. Wang Ye, ask yourself, what do you have now? I want money but no money, and a house but no house. I am still willing to marry you. What am I trying to do?"

Wang Ye looked unnatural. Yes, this was his Achilles' heel.

He has nothing now. Lily shouldn't risk her whole life's happiness just to cuckold him?

The anger on Wang Ye's face disappeared little by little, and he suddenly stopped talking.

Seeing this, Lily immediately turned from defense to offense, "We have lost even the most basic trust between us. Wang Ye, do you think this marriage is still necessary?"

"You..." Wang Ye couldn't speak to her and didn't know how to answer the question.

"Wang Ye, just tell me, do you still want to get married?" Lily asked again.

"I...I don't know." Wang Ye lowered his head in frustration. He was almost bored to death now. His mind was so muddy that it was difficult to even think.

"Don't know?" Lily sighed, she suddenly stood up and made a big move, "If you don't know, just think about it carefully. My very good friend asked me to go tonight, and I want to ask him to make arrangements for you. It’s a job, so I went.”

Wang Ye suddenly raised his head, "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can call and ask yourself." Lily picked up her bag and turned to leave.

Wang Ye grabbed her wrist and said, "Lily, if it's really what you said, I'll apologize to you!"

Lily glanced sideways at him, "Do you believe me?"

"I believe you."

Lily said that, does it matter whether he believes it or not?

She actually asked someone to arrange a job for him. This was rubbing Wang Ye's dignity to the ground. He was a grown man, and he actually asked his girlfriend to go drink with others to find a job.

Regardless of whether what she said was true or not, these words made Wang Ye feel that he had never been so useless.

For such a useless man, what else could he ask of Lily?

Be a good wife and mother like other women?Is he worthy?

A flash of pride flashed in Lily's eyes, but she hid it well. She took Wang Ye's arm and said, "Then let's just let this happen tonight. Let's just pretend it never happened, okay?"

Wang Ye nodded, looked at her with a complicated look, and his tone became much softer, "You go take a shower first and go to bed early."

Seeing that the two did not fight, Qiao Xing relaxed and retreated to his bedroom.

After closing the door, she turned around and saw Qin Ce leaning against the wall, staring at her with a half-smile.

Qiao Xing was startled by him, "When did you stand here?"

"When they were arguing."

Qiao Xing opened her mouth in surprise. She was so focused that she didn't even notice that he was standing behind her.

I didn't expect that he was also quite gossipy and would actually stand here watching others quarrel.

Qiao Xing locked the door. She scratched her head and asked with some confusion, "Why do I feel it's always a little strange, but I can't explain it."

Qin Ce said calmly: "Because your cousin was brainwashed by Lily."

"What?" Qiao Xing looked at him puzzled, "What do you mean?"
