Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 260 - 262: He doesn’t even have the capability to measure her!_1

"Enough! Gu Shaocheng!" Chenxing suddenly flared up, raising her arm to smack him, vexation enveloping her, "Don’t paint me as so useless!"

Gu Shaocheng looked at her, unexpectedly feeling a peculiar sense of satisfaction. Her lips were tightly pressed into a pale line, her facial muscles taut, and the annoyance in her eyes steadily intensifying.

Then, he spoke nonchalantly, "Isn’t it the truth? If you’re capable, earn 200,000 in a month and prove it to me. If you don’t want to be looked down upon, prove your worth on your own!"

The expression on her face made it seem as if she wanted to kill him with her glare. Finally, she gritted her teeth vehemently, "I can do it! Don’t underestimate me!"

"Oh..." he prolonged the monosyllable, "Then let’s make a bet. If you can earn 200,000 in a month, you’re free to do as you please, and I guarantee I won’t meddle in your affairs! But if you can’t, stay here, and I’ll handle all your difficulties! How about it?"

He knew for a fact she couldn’t do it!

Chenxing said nothing, continuing to press her lips together.

"What, you don’t dare take on the challenge now?"

The harder she bit her lip.

With downcast eyes, Gu Shaocheng looked at her and smiled lightly, "Are you scared? It’s not about me belittling your ability to survive in the world. Here, I can give you a starting capital of 10,000. Are you willing to accept the challenge?"

He was beaming, a radiant light appeared on his face, like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, or more like a hunter setting a trap.

However, Chenxing was hot-headed, "Who said I’m scared! Who’s afraid of a challenge! Let’s make the bet, I’m not scared, I will prove to you, I’m not as incompetent as you say!"

Just as he anticipated! Ha-ha, he was secretly delighted! Gu Shaocheng maintained his businesslike demeanor, "Butler, bring some paper and a pen, and withdraw 10,000 in cash!"

The butler, a smile tugging at his deeply lined face, obeyed and went to fetch the items, all the while shaking his head internally: Oh Miss Chen Xing, even I can’t rescue you now!

It seems like he’s supportive of Miss Chen Xing moving back in, nodding, he maintained his spectatorial stance as he went to collect the items.

Chenxing was in a daze, "Why do you need paper and a pen?"

"To put everything in black and white. If we’re making a bet, we need to put it in writing. Otherwise, how would I know that you’re not just trying to defraud me of my 10,000?" His gaze seemed to say: Do you take me, Gu Shaocheng, for a fool? So easily deceived!

"Don’t judge others by your wicked standards, I’m not that kind of person."

"Having it in writing will be more reassuring for me. When you can’t earn 200,000, won’t you be at my mercy?"

Gu Shaocheng lifted his chin, a foxlike pleasure dancing in his heart. When the butler brought the pen and paper, he searched among the cluttered furniture and found a three-legged table to make do with. With grand flourish, he penned down the terms of the wager.

Gu Shaocheng and Zhou Chenxing establish a wager.

Gu Shaocheng will provide a startup capital of 10,000. The deadline is one month. During this period, Zhou Chenxing must earn 200,000 (no borrowing, stealing, robbing, or pawning of assets, the money must be earned solely through her abilities). If Zhou Chenxing manages to earn the full 200,000 within a month, it will prove she has the ability to survive on her own and support her family. In such a case, Gu Shaocheng will cease his unwarranted concerns. However, should Zhou Chenxing fail to acquire 200,000 within a month, it will prove her inability to survive on her own and support her family. She must, from then on, accept Gu Shaocheng’s arrangements, return to the Gu Family home, and leave the responsibility of managing her family’s medical care to him!"

... There will be another update before noon.
