The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

1084 Perplexed and Smitten 144

"How much does this bottle of liquor cost?"

"More than five million dollars."

Fang Erlan gaped in shock. "That's so expensive. You don't go to work at all. Where did you get all that money from? Don't tell me…"

Having immediately guessed what she was thinking, he humphed and clarified, "I didn't steal it."

She chuckled and asked, "Where did you get that money from, then?"

"I'll naturally tell you everything about me once you become my wife."

"Psht…" Fang Erlan raised her glass and took another few sips. No wonder it tasted so good. It turned out it's so expensive.

After finishing her glass, she proceeded to pour herself another.

Xiao Chenyang stopped drinking after having one glass and got onto the bed slowly.

Staring at the scene taking place on the television screen, Fang Erlan sensed that something was amiss and asked, "What kind of film is this?"

"A romantic one."

"A romantic film? If that's the case, why did they start kissing right after they met…?" Fang Erlan said apprehensively.

"Perhaps they're just following the storyline."

Fang Erlan finished her second and last glass of liquor.

She leaned back against the headboard and felt a sudden urge to switch off the television the moment she saw the passionate kissing scene taking place in the film.

She initially thought that the film would become more normal and appropriate after the opening. To her astonishment, it simply got worse and racier the further the plot developed. She got out of bed without hesitation and switched off the television. The instant she saw the title of the film that was printed on the disc, she turned red with embarrassment and glowered at Xiao Chenyang. "You're shameless and despicable!"

"How so?"

"How is this a romance film? It's obviously a…"

"Obviously a what? We're both adults, what's wrong with watching that?" he said with a grin.

Fang Erlan ignored him and lay down on the bed. "I'm exhausted, I'm going to bed now," she said.

"Yes," he answered.

"Why are you back at such a late hour? It's already three in the morning. Do you even know what it means to be time-conscious?" Bu Xianxian rebuked, glaring at Shi Shaochuan angrily.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I was waiting for you. I tried to call you so many times, why didn't you pick up?"

"I left my mobile phone in the family mansion."

Staring at him solemnly, Bu Xianxian said, "Shaochuan, I have something to talk to you about."

"What's the matter?"

"If you still want to keep the baby after hearing what I have to say, I'll pretend that I never said anything," she said while taking a seat on the edge of the bed.

Seeing how strangely serious she was, Shi Shaochuan asked, "What is it?"

"Have a look at this," she said, handing him the photos of her hideous self from the past.

Shi Shaochuan grabbed the photo and took a look at it before asking, "Who's this?"

"It's me."

Shock and bewilderment were written all over his face. He scanned Bu Xianxian from head to toe before looking at the photo again. After doing so repeatedly for a few times, he burst into laughter and gibed, "Xianxian, do you really think you can fool me with a photo of someone else? Do you really think I'll allow you to get an abortion just because of this?"

"Shaochuan, I lied when I said that I had never gone under the knife in the past. Actually, I went for plastic surgery in order to look like An Xiaoning. If you still don't believe me, I can take you to the hospital to get that verified. The hospital still has my files that document my entire plastic surgery process. You'll understand after you see them."

Shi Shaochuan's heart sank upon hearing her words. He could not help but feel nauseated at the thought of having slept next to such a hideous woman for so many nights. It turned out she used to be so grotesque and tan-skinned.

He was initially already displeased to see that retouched face of hers that greatly resembled An Xiaoning's…

Yet…

"You… why did you go under the knife to look like An Xiaoning? Is she even pretty?"

"Shaochuan, I'm afraid you're the only person who doesn't find her pretty. She's a ravishing beauty in the eyes of many others."

"I really never used to find her pretty at all. However, after seeing this photo of the old you, I'm starting to think that she's actually good-looking. Did you seriously just expose your old appearance for the sake of getting an abortion?"

"Yes, we can't keep this baby. I've bared all the secrets about my past to you just so I can abort the child."

Shi Shaochuan scoffed and quipped, "Congratulations, you've succeeded. Okay, let's never meet each other again. After seeing what you used to look like, I've lost my appetite for today and tomorrow."Read more chapter on v ipnovel. com

Despite having already prepared herself mentally, Bu Xianxian could not help but feel infuriated upon hearing his snide remark.

"Did I have a choice? I couldn't decide how my appearance would turn out. I was just born with those looks."

"Yes, but did you forget that I only decided to make you my kept woman because I thought you were young and beautiful? If not, do you really think I would have spent so much money on you? I'm not a lunatic. Who'd have thought that you actually used to look so hideous? How nauseating."

"You took my virginity. How dare you say such callous things!"

"Haha, if you didn't get plastic surgery, I doubt others would have been willing to get intimate with you, even if you offered to give them your virginity out of your own accord."

Bu Xianxian was filled with immense rage. She had had an inferiority complex before because of her looks. To make things worse, she even had dark and unappealing skin. He was practically rubbing salt into her wound.

He had utterly shamed her and robbed her of her dignity. How could she possibly stomach it and take it lying down?

Shi Shaochuan no longer wanted to live with her and had lost the mood to continue dating her.

"That's enough. You shall stay here until the end of the month. I'm not going to renew the lease. Let's not meet ever again. We'll abort the child, according to your wishes."

"We'd definitely have to abort the child, but you have to give me some money for the abortion and the post-surgery nourishment."

"Didn't I already give you a lot of money on a regular basis?"

"That's a separate issue. Didn't I serve you in bed regularly too? If you're a man, you have to take the responsibility."

Shi Shaochuan took out a bank account card from his wallet and handed it to her. "There's 50 thousand dollars in here. It's over between us."

Bu Xianxian took it from his hand and did not say anything further.

Shi Shaochuan then left the apartment, leaving Bu Xianxian alone in there. She still felt that she had lost out.

She gave Shi Shaochuan his virginity, yet he just walked out on her after toying with her and paying her some money for the fun that he had had. Meanwhile, she had already become stained and unchaste, and she would still have to undergo an abortion.

However, she decided to forget it at the thought of finally being able to get rid of the baby…

Bu Xianxian woke up before eight o'clock in the morning, and her mother accompanied her to the hospital.

Since the gynecologist would only be reporting to work at eight, she had to register her name and wait outside.

After hearing that she had cut off all ties with Shi Shaochuan, Mrs. Bu said, "You ought to find a good man and settle down with him properly for the rest of your life. Let's just forget about this. Got it?"

"Where am I supposed to find a good man? Mother, I actually never planned to marry Shi Shaochuan either. I only decided to be with him for the sake of money. Actually, I'm still harboring feelings for…"

Mrs. Bu interrupted, "Forget about it, stop getting ideas about Nick. He's not interested in you at all. Why are you so stubborn and oblivious?"

"He's the only one I adore. How am I supposed to forget about him?"
