Chapter 1071: The Flash Marriage Heiress (55)

“Madam Niu, I heard you've been arranging blind dates for Beibei lately?”

“My arranging blind dates for my daughter has nothing to do with a busy man like President Luo, does it?”

“We've known each other for years. I can't just stand by and watch you push her into a pit of fire. Just for Qian Chengcheng's bride price, you're forcing her to marry those old, ugly men. Have you ever considered her feelings?”

“So what if they're old and ugly? As long as they treat our Beibei well. What's wrong with her becoming a rich man's wife?”

“Madam Niu, how much is Qian Chengcheng's bride price?”

Hearing that, Niu Jinlan froze for a moment before asking suspiciously, “Why are you asking that? President Luo, don't tell me you're planning to keep our Beibei as your mistress? I won't allow it. Beibei will never become the other woman.”

“If President Luo really still likes Beibei, then come looking for her after you're single.”

In other words, only after Luo Yicheng got divorced could he continue entangling himself with Qian Beibei.

And beneath those words lay another meaning—she didn't actually oppose the two of them being together.

“What I mean is, I can give you some money. Stop making things difficult for Beibei and stop forcing her to go on dates with those old men. From now on, don't trouble her again. Consider it compensation for the nine years she spent with me.”

“Are you serious?” Niu Jinlan's voice immediately brightened with delight.

Her son's marriage had been delayed for so long because of the bride price. It had worried her so much that strands of white hair had appeared.

Qian Beibei refused to obey her and always offended the men she carefully selected. Who knew when she'd finally get any bride price from her? Meanwhile, the girl's family kept pressing them, and Chengcheng had already quarreled with her several times over the matter. She was nearly driven to death with anxiety.

“Of course. But Madam Niu, you'll have to sign a contract with me.”

“As long as you agree, I'll provide the bride price. In return, you aren't allowed to trouble Beibei anymore.”

Niu Jinlan quickly calculated in her mind.

Free money. A good deal.

Besides, she really wasn't sure she could force Beibei into marriage. Beibei was almost thirty already. Once a woman passed that age, her value dropped.

Many wealthy men weren't interested in women over thirty.

Now that this fool, Luo Yicheng, had volunteered to throw money at them, why refuse?

Besides, judging by this, Luo Yicheng clearly still had feelings for Beibei.

If he divorced and married Beibei now, that wouldn't be bad at all. Given his abilities, she could overlook the fact that he was divorced.

“Fine. Chengcheng's bride price is one million. If you can come up with one million, I'll sign your contract and stop introducing men to Beibei.”

After all, Beibei was nearly thirty.

Truth be told, there weren't many good men she could be introduced to anymore.

And if Luo Yicheng still liked her and was willing to divorce, that wasn't a bad outcome either.

Naturally, Luo Yicheng had no idea what was going through Niu Jinlan's mind.

Hearing her agree, he let out a sigh of relief.

This could be considered his compensation to Qian Beibei, couldn't it?

Hopefully, without Niu Jinlan causing trouble, Beibei would be able to live a better life.

Not long afterward, Niu Jinlan received the one million.

Inwardly, she couldn't help marveling that Luo Yicheng had truly become rich.

In fact, the girl's family had only demanded five hundred thousand.

The price she quoted to Luo Yicheng had merely been something she blurted out on a whim. If he couldn't afford it, she could always lower it.

She had never expected him not to hesitate in the slightest.

After getting the money, Niu Jinlan truly stopped making things difficult for Qian Beibei.

Nor did she arrange any more blind dates for her.
