The weather in early spring is always unpredictable. In the blink of an eye, there was lightning and thunder outside the window and heavy rain began to fall.

Gu Tingyan looked hesitant, and it was obvious that he was still considering whether it was worth spending the 500 million yuan.

Chu Jiamiao narrowed her eyes slightly and quickly noticed his hesitation.

She naturally knew what Gu Tingyan was struggling with, so she changed her sharp attitude, stood up, walked to his side with charming steps, sat down, and whispered softly in his ear: "Brother Tingyan, if I guess correctly, you should still want to win back my sister, right?"

Silence represented Gu Tingyan's answer.

Seeing that he remained silent, Chu Jiamiao raised her red lips, her eyes curved into two beautiful arcs, revealing a sharp gaze that was inconsistent with the age of a naive 17-year-old girl: "Not answering means acquiescence. In this case, I don't think you need to be so hostile to our family of three. Logically speaking, we can now be regarded as grasshoppers tied to the same boat..."

She hooked her slender arm around Gu Tingyan's and continued, "With Brother Tingyan's intelligence, he must be very clear about my sister's current situation. Her current wealth is unfathomable. Putting aside how much inheritance her biological parents left her, the gifts she received at the birthday party that day alone are worth hundreds of millions of yuan."

When Gu Tingyan thought of the eighteen gifts that the man gave Mo Li that day, he was still shocked. Especially the last gift, except for Mo Li, no one knew what it was.

"My sister has been spoiled by my parents since she was a child. She would run away from home if she was wronged. But she is a child raised by our Chu family after all, so everything about her naturally belongs to our Chu family..."

Gu Tingyan looked at her in disbelief. It was the first time in all the time he knew Chu Jiamiao that he saw her take off her disguise as a peaceful little lamb and reveal her ambitious heart.

Chu Jiamiao smiled knowingly: "Since Brother Tingyan rushed to the hotel to look for my sister in such a hurry, he must be like us, unable to find her whereabouts, right? If this continues, my sister might really be snatched away by that man... Then all of us will be empty-handed."

His expression faltered, and he asked Chu Jiamiao uncertainly: "So...what do you mean?"

Chu Jiamiao rubbed his exposed arm lightly with her fingers, teasing him vaguely: "If you want to get back together with your sister, the only way is to cooperate with us and help us collect the remaining debt...Brother Tingyan, it's only 500 million, which is not much at all."

Gu Tingyan naturally understood the reason. At best, he was now a scumbag abandoned by Mo Li. But the Chu family was different. Chu Shengfeng and his wife were her adoptive parents, and Chu Jiamiao was her sister. No matter how cold-blooded and heartless she was, she could not really cut off contact with the Chu family.

Everyone knows that Mo Li ran away from home because the Chu family deliberately concealed her background and secretly swiped 1.8 billion yuan from her. But as long as the Chu family paid off the money in the black gold card on time, Mo Li could no longer avoid the Chu family, unless she wanted to be scolded for the rest of her life.

On the contrary, if the Chu family cannot pay back the money, Mo Li will naturally have a reason to distance herself from the Chu family forever, and he will not have the slightest chance to get close to her again, so what's the point of talking about getting back together?

At this moment, the balance in Gu Tingyan's heart has already tilted towards Chu Jiamiao: "But..."

"But what?" Chu Jiamiao found it funny: "Brother Tingyan, do you really think you still have time to hesitate? Don't blame me for not reminding you, this opportunity cannot be missed... I can assure you that as long as she returns to the Chu family, we will naturally find a way to get everything she has. By then, will you still worry about not getting a return on the 500 million?"

Gu Tingyan's only concern now is that the Chu family will destroy the bridge after crossing the river. After investing 500 million yuan, there should be some splash, right? Don't waste your efforts for a long time and end up foolishly making wedding clothes for others.

After planning for so long and being one step away from success, how could Chu Jiamiao give up? She tried her best to guess the man's thoughts, her fingers kept circling around the sensitive part of his elbow, and her eyes were fixed on him: "To tell you the truth, you are not the only one who sees my sister's value now. In fact, our Chu family has many better choices besides you... But why did I choose you to help us? Doesn't Brother Tingyan know?"

Gu Tingyan felt somewhat proud when he heard this - of course he knew that it was because Chu Jiamiao was deeply in love with him and was obsessed with him to death.

He thought he never showed his emotions, but in fact, the slightly upturned curve of his lips completely betrayed his arrogance and conceit.

Sure enough, the next second, Chu Jiamiao said tenderly beside him, "Of course it's because I love Brother Tingyan the most in this world... If you hadn't ignored me for several days in a row and didn't reply to my calls and messages, I wouldn't have been forced to use this method to ask you out."

There was a hint of anger in her tone, and even a hint of coquettishness.

This answer was completely within Gu Tingyan's expectations. He attributed everything to his own strong personal charm and did not notice the calculation that flashed in Chu Jiamiao's eyes.

Seeing that he still refused to give in, Chu Jiamiao suddenly let go of his hand, slowly stood up, and lamented: "Oh, forget it, since Brother Tingyan doesn't trust our Chu family, I don't want to force you. I think I should go find someone else..."

"Wait--" Gu Tingyan really couldn't stand her provocation, and immediately reached out to grab her arm and pulled her back: "Isn't it just 500 million? I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you, why do you have to look for someone else?"

A smile appeared on Chu Jiamiao's lips, and she immediately sat back beside him, hugging his neck affectionately: "I know that there is no one better than Brother Tingyan in this world."

She kissed him on the lips. Gu Tingyan looked at Chu Shengfeng and his wife who were still sitting opposite him, and felt a little uncomfortable.

After all, not long ago, he was the future fiancé of the eldest daughter of the Chu family.

Fortunately, Chu Shengfeng and his wife did not show any strange expressions. Seeing that Gu Tingyan agreed to pay 500 million, the big stone hanging in their hearts finally fell to the ground.

Chu Shengfeng thought of another thing, coughed lightly, and said in a deep voice: "There is one more thing. Master Gu is wandering between my two daughters. It's time to make a choice, right? My eldest daughter and my youngest daughter, which one are you going to choose?"

Gu Tingyan smiled bitterly - did he have any choice?
