489 Tempting Offer

“You’re such an incompetent thing, everything you touch turns to dust! What has my eldest brother taught you! Is this how you’ve been brought up!” He Ning said sternly.

He Mei stood at the door and trembled, not daring to approach. Even Ma San, who was behind her, was implicated and did not dare to take another step forward.

“Alright, don’t be so angry. Qian’e is waiting in the living room. All of you should go in,” Huo Gao said nicely.

He often played the role of the “peacemaker” at home. With him around and provided that He Ning was willing to listen to him, the quarrels at home usually did not last too long.

As soon as He Ning pushed open the door, he saw Qian’e nodding off. It was rare for someone to dare to behave like this in the He family’s house.

“Wake up,” He Ning said as he sat opposite Qian’e.

Qian’e opened her eyes in a daze and saw the pale He Ning, the ashen-faced He Mei and Ma San, who had joined in like an extra.

The He Ning in front of her looked like a completely different person from the one she saw deep in sleep just now. There was now an air of hostility between He Ning’s brows and a very vicious look in his eyes. Qian’e did not even dare to look directly into He Ning’s eyes.

“Why are you here today?” He Ning asked calmly.

Qian’e exhaled and said calmly, “I’m here to ask for my remuneration.”

“Remuneration? What remuneration?” He Ning looked at Qian’e with a look of confusion.

“Earlier, He Mei had told me to get rid of Qiao Mei and said that she would pay me when the deed is done. This is the agreement that He Mei wrote herself,” Qian’e said as she took out two photos from her bag and handed them to He Ning.

He Ning had originally thought that Qian’e only had brute strength and no brains. He did not expect her to have grown so much smarter after not seeing her for a few years.

“These are the photos I took. I have hidden the original agreements. I’ll give them to you after I get paid,” Qian’e said.

He Mei was so angry that her entire body was trembling. He Ning was already unhappy with what she had done, and now Qian’e had come to ask for money and was even using the written agreements to threaten them!

“You cheap thing! How dare you come up with such a trick to cheat our family of money!” He Mei pointed at Qian’e and scolded her.

“Mr. He, please tell your niece not to speak. I’m afraid that this conversation can’t continue otherwise. If I send the agreements to the Xia family in a fit of anger, this matter might not be so easy to resolve anymore,” Qian’e said to He Mei with a smile.

Interesting, this was really too interesting. He did not expect a small fry like Qian’e to be able to negotiate terms with him. It seemed that he was really down and out for now.

“What do you want? Tell me,” He Ning said as he threw the photos on the table.

He did not even need to verify the authenticity of these photos. He Mei’s reaction just now was enough to prove everything.

“I want the 100,000 dollars that He Mei promised me and also what Ma San promised me,” Qian’e said.

“Impossible! Let me tell you, Qian’e! Don’t even think about getting a single cent from me! How dare you threaten me!” He Mei said in exasperation.

He Ning raised his eyes to look at He Mei and said, “You’re really well-behaved these few days when I’m not around. Do you think I’m dead?”

He Mei’s arrogance disappeared in an instant. This was how she usually behaved. She just pretended to be a well-bred young lady whenever she saw He Ning. Otherwise, He Ning would have been even stricter with her.

“I’m sorry, Little Uncle! I didn’t do it on purpose!” He Mei said softly.

He Ning tapped the tabletop with his index finger and considered the pros and cons carefully. It was not that he could not meet the conditions that Qian’e asked for, but the matter of Ma San and Shen Na getting a divorce was more complicated. Once the couple got a divorce, the relationship between the Shen family and the He family would become very awkward.

“I know that you and your mother haven’t been doing well all these years. How about I give you 200,000 dollars, plus a house near your workplace? No, no, no! I’ll get your superior at the workplace to give you a raise and a promotion. What do you think?” He Ning said.

This offer was really tempting, but she did not want to be swayed. The humiliation that she suffered at the hands of Ma San and He Mei in the past must be repaid today. She would rather die otherwise. It would be better to die in the He family than to go back and live a life worse than death. Dying would be a form of relief for her.

“No, I can even forgo the money, but Ma San must divorce Shen Na and go to the wilderness to undergo reformative training,” Qian’e said.
