Humiliated by my mother-in-law, I married into a wealthy family with my son four years later

Chapter 361 Be My Fiancée

Lu Jie glanced at him coldly and said firmly: "I would rather die than surrender!"

"Oh, you have a pretty stubborn temper." Zheng Junwei raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a faint smile. He walked closer to her, glanced at her, and said, "Just now, even if you didn't listen deliberately, you should have seen it."

Lu Jie remained silent. She planned to play dumb about this matter anyway!

"That woman is my sister. You may have heard that she is my father's illegitimate daughter." Zheng Junwei frowned, a complicated expression on his face. "But no matter what, she is my sister and there is no changing that."

Lu Jie stood there quietly listening, wondering to herself, "Will the more I listen, the more trouble I'll have?" But Zheng Junwei showed no sign of stopping. He gave a self-deprecating laugh and continued, "It's really embarrassing to say it out loud. She's had this idea for more than a day or two. I thought I could just ignore it, but it seems it's no use."

"What does that have to do with me?" Lu Jie asked with a stiff upper lip.

He raised his eyebrows, looked at her with a smile, and asked, "It's okay?"

"Of course!" Lu Jie looked at him coldly and said warily, "Want to blackmail me? I'm afraid it won't be that easy!"

He suddenly reached out and pinched her cheek. "Hahaha. You want to just wash your hands of this? Then what about you sleeping with me? You slept with a pure and innocent young man like me, and you won't give me an explanation? Hmm? Tell me, okay? Okay?" He pinched her face hard, and Lu Jie grimaced in pain. "You...you bastard."

"Hey, you swear? And you dare to talk back?" He pinched harder with a ferocious smile on his face, like a sadist.

Lu Jie took a deep breath and told herself to endure the humiliation! She said stiffly, "Okay, stop playing such childish tricks. Say what you want to say quickly."

The moment he loosened his hand, his slender knuckles brushed against her wrist, intentionally or unintentionally, and the touch seemed to carry a subtle electric current.

Then, his eyes locked onto her features, staring at her silently for a full half minute before he slowly spoke, "I think you should be able to do it."

This nonsensical and inexplicable response made Lu Jie's brows twist into the shape of a "川" character.

She was filled with confusion and anger, her hands subconsciously akimbo on her waist, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, staring straight at him, and loudly demanded, "Mr. Zheng, could you please straighten your tongue before speaking properly? If you keep beating around the bush with me, I'll scream at the top of my lungs, 'Molesting!'"

At this moment, she felt that the man in front of her was acting strangely and speaking in confusing ways, which was almost exhausting her patience.

Zheng Xuan couldn't help but laugh at her, his shoulders shaking. He leaned back on the sofa with a lazy and casual attitude, and said slowly, "Be my girlfriend, Zheng Xuan, or just my fiancée. Anyway, help me get rid of that old lady."

When Lu Jie heard this, her heart skipped a beat and an inexplicable anger rose up. Her fingertips unconsciously pinched into her palm, leaving a shallow crescent mark.

She gritted her teeth, suppressed her anger and asked, "Why does it have to be me?"

She knew it clearly in her mind: this bastard man has good looks and a good family background. In their circle, he is a man who can get whatever he wants. How could he not find someone to play a double act with him?

Could it be that he just wanted to take advantage of her?

Zheng Xuan answered frankly, without any intention of hiding anything: "Who made you overhear everything I should and shouldn't have heard?"

When Lu Jie heard this, she was so angry that she tilted her neck back, stared at the chandelier above her head, and rolled her eyes.

She knew in her heart that this was clearly a forced move - either obey or die.

Although she knew in her heart that this playboy might not dare to really do anything to her, based on the methods he usually used to torment others, he might make things difficult for her in the future. Thinking of this, she felt a conflict of feelings, angry and helpless.

Zheng Xuan, who was sitting opposite him, crossed his legs and strolled leisurely, then said, "Help me deal with that crazy woman, and we'll go our separate ways from now on. As for you raping me..."

As he spoke, he suddenly leaned closer, his breath carrying a faint scent of mint cigarettes blowing straight into her face, "I'm being magnanimous. I won't bother with you anymore."

"Bah!" Lu Jie was immediately furious when she heard this. Without thinking, she slapped his outstretched hand away and cursed loudly, "Zheng Xuan, stop flattering yourself! The eldest son of the Zheng family is acting like a hooligan in the street. Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed if this gets out?" At this moment, her cheeks were flushed red with anger, and her eyes seemed to be spewing fire.

Zheng Xuan propped up his chin, a provocative smile plastered on his face as he said, "That's why they say we're a match made in heaven. If I really wanted to do this to you, you would have screamed your throat out eight hundred times."

Lu Jie cursed all his eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart, thinking secretly, what’s so great about being rich?

With his bad temper, he deserves to be pestered! But then he thought again, now that he has the Zheng family's leverage, it's better than letting others manipulate him.

After weighing the pros and cons, she gritted her teeth and squeezed out a word: "Deal!" When she said these two words, her heart was filled with reluctance and helplessness.

Zheng Xuan tapped his knees rhythmically with his fingertips, looking confident of victory. He said, "He who understands the current situation is a hero."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Lu Jie stared at him warily, her eyes as if examining a ferocious beast that could attack at any moment. "Do you promise not to regret it?"

At this moment, she still felt uneasy, fearing that this man would go back on his word and put herself in a worse situation.

"Look at what you're saying." Zheng Xuan pretended to cover his chest, a look of deep sorrow on his face. "I'm a man of integrity. It's really disrespectful of you to say that."

Lu Jie raised her hand to interrupt his exaggerated performance and said impatiently: "Stop! Tell us how to act first?" At this moment, she just wanted to finalize this matter quickly and end this farce.

Zheng Xuan suddenly stretched out his arm, grabbed her shoulders, and pulled her into his arms. His movements were a little rough, but with an irresistible force: "Start by learning to act like a spoiled child."

"Who doesn't know how to act like a spoiled child?" Lu Jie struggled to free herself from his arms, her heart filled with disgust. But just as she was about to say this, she suddenly seemed to remember something, and with a hint of sarcasm, she added, "But she can't compare to your Miss Zheng."

As soon as she said this, she noticed Zheng Xuan's expression changed instantly, and she thought to herself that something was wrong.

Sure enough, these words were like lighting a firecracker, and Zheng Xuan's face instantly turned gloomy, as if a storm was about to come.
