In This Life, I Won't Let Jin Nian Down

“Be my woman, Fu Jinnian, and you’ll have more money than you could ever spend.” The words seemed to come from the peak of a distant snow-capped mountain, icy and unreal, yet they rang clearly beside Gu Xi. Fu Jinnian. A name that seemed strangely familiar. Gu Xi looked at Fu Jinnian and sneered, giving a soft snort. “Thank you for the offer, Mr. Fu, but I have no plans to be anyone’s mistress. But if you want to sleep with me, just say so. Since you helped me today, I can spend the night with you.” Screech! Fu Jinnian slammed on the brakes! He slowly turned his head and stared at Gu Xi in disbelief. Gu Xi’s hair was a mess. She brushed it back. Every movement of hers was aloof yet alluring. Gu Xi opened her bag, took out a lipstick, and applied it. “Your place or a hotel?” she asked, not daring to meet his eyes for fear of giving herself away. Fu Jinnian’s hands gripping the steering wheel were already trembling. “Get out!” The words came through his clenched teeth, full of disgust. “Heh.” Gu Xi sneered, put away her lipstick, and placed a hundred-yuan bill in the car. “Mr. Fu, thanks for today. I hope we never meet again.”
