Chapter 801: Using 10 Million Dollars To Redeem Himself

“I’m the one who brought you to Sea City, so I have to send you back.” Lu Yi ended up blocking her wild swipes with his hand, but Sun Yuhan had scratched his face, leaving a few wounds. It was obvious that his face had been scratched by a woman.

“Why are you so responsible?” Sun Yuhan jeered. “If so, why don’t you marry me? Are you going to marry me? Answer me, will you marry me?”

Lu Yi tightened his thin lips.

“Okay,” he agreed. “I’ll marry you.”

Sun Yuhan was stunned for awhile. He agreed, he actually agreed! She had been asking and hounding him about it many times, just to hear these words that she dreamt of listening. Now, he had finally said it! He finally agreed…

But she was not excited at all.

She gazed at Lu Yi’s face, trying to search for a trace of something that might explain this. However, no matter how much she tried to observe, or how colorful her imagination was, Lu Yi was still the same. It was impossible that he could be anyone else.

She stood up and rubbed her arms.

Then, she turned around and walked off. After taking a few steps, she turned back to face him and moved her lips, “In the past, I wanted to marry you so desperately. But if you want to marry me now, I’ll simply say no.”

She felt as if her chest was lighter after she spoke those words. What good was Lu Yi? After thinking about it, she realized that what she would get from this was just a slow-witted guy. Moreover, it did not seem like Lu Yi’s family would treat her well anyway.

Why would she choose to suffer? She was not dumb.

Lu Yi gazed at her back as he slipped his hand into his pocket. Meanwhile, his other hand fished out his cellphone, and he dialled Lei Qingyi’s number.

“Can you help me keep an eye on Lu Qin?”

Lei Qingyi tapped the table with his pen as he answered, “If she wants to fall into a trap willingly, let her be. Why would you be a busybody?”

“His target is me, not Sun Yuhan.”

“Alright, fine,” Lei Qingyi agreed. He then aimed the pen in his hand at the penholder and threw it. The pen fell accurately into the penholder.

For a few days after that, Sun Yuhan kept to herself. She still preferred to stay at home as there were plenty to eat and drink in the house, so it was not necessary for her to go out.

One day, Sun Yuhan held out her hand to Lu Yi.

Lu Yi closed his laptop. “What do you want?”

“Money,” Sun Yuhan sat near him and gripped her arm. “I would like to replace your promise with 10 million dollars.”

Lu Yi frowned. “Are you asking for 10 million dollars?”

“Yes, 10 million dollars.”

Sun Yuhan curled her red lips. Even just one million dollars was an inconceivable number for her in the past. But now, she could ask for 10 million dollars right off the bat. A Lu Yi should be worth 10 million dollars, right?

“Have you make up your mind?” Lu Yi asked. 10 million dollars was a lot, but it was just a small amount for him. His salary as a prosecutor was not much, but he had other investments.

“Yes.” Sun Yuhan was not dumb. She had realized that Lu Yi could not give her the life she wanted.

Lu Yi picked up his handphone and stood up, walking to the balcony.

He gave Lei Qingyi a call. “Please wire 10 million dollars to my bank card.”

“10 million dollars? What are you going to do with that much money?” Lei Qingyi was enjoying a hotpot alone, because he could not find any company.

“Redeeming myself with money,” Lu Yi answered in a dull voice. His had entrusted his money to Lei Qingyi for him invest on Lu Yi’s behalf. If he needed money, he would ask from Lei. But he usually had no need for that, as his salary was enough for his daily spending.

“Okay.” Lei Qingyi tapped a few times on his phone, and 10 million dollars was wired into his card almost instantly.

When Lu Yi came back, he sat in front of Sun Yuhan. Then, he took out his wallet and pulled a card from it, placing it on the table. “The password is 123456. There’s 10 million dollars inside.”

Sun Yuhan took the card with trembling fingers. She had never seen this much money in her life. Although she had gotten used to splurging, this was her first time having so much money for herself.

“Okay.” She waved the card in her hand. “We’re even-steven right now. Can you leave now?”

Frankly, Lu Yi did not understand women at all. She had loved him desperately before the past few days. But now, she could just spurn him mercilessly. He had no idea if she did not like him in the first place, or if she just wanted to own him. Was he someone replaceable? Did her taste change? Now, he realized that he, Lu Yi, was worth only 10 million dollars.

He exited Sun Yuhan’s house, but he did not know where he wanted to go. The weather in River Xun was colder than Sea City. He did not plan to stay for long, so he did not bring much luggage. He had only brought long his laptop, without bringing a change of clothes. He had been feeling slightly cold since he got off the plane. And now, he was practically freezing.

He hugged his laptop. His shirts were thin. The wind blew through his shirt and chilled his skin.

He raised his wrist and looked at the watch before he continued to walk forward. He wanted to look for a hotel to stay overnight, as his flight ticket was tomorrow. He could go home after resting for a night here.

As for Sun Yuhan, he had done whatever he could. Whether or not she decided to listen to him, it was all up to her.

They were even now.

At night, he turned off his laptop and felt hungry. As such, he wanted to look for some food to allay his hunger.

All of a sudden, something came to his mind. He turned on his laptop again and clicked on the hidden folder in it. Once he opened the folder, thousands of photos popped up on the screen.

He was smiling as he scrolled through them, but there was a noticeable sorrow within his dark eyes.

The woman in the photo was munching on a bun. Her facial features were neat and clean. She was smiling in happiness, so happy that even the tips of her eyebrows were showing her joy.

Suddenly, he recalled something else, so he turned off his laptop and went out.

There was a pretty good bun shop nearby, which he had been to a few times. He decided that he would go there tonight, as it might be hard for him to come by again in the future. He tucked his hands in his pockets as he strolled along the street. His pace was steady and his back was straight. Then, a bike cycled passed by him. The chilly wind buffeted the corners of his shirt slightly.

He halted in his steps suddenly and laid his eyes on a woman nearby. His black eyes shone for a moment, but he suppressed it.

He walked on, keeping his previous pace, as if he wanted to catch up with the bike in front of him.
