Nie Yu Cheng frowned and shook his head, "Sorry, I really don't know if Wanci came to find me that night. Maybe the waiter took the money but didn't do anything."

After all, Shen Wanci was weak and easily bullied back then.

No matter how Nie Yucheng explained himself, Qin Yuezhi felt that the man was lying. “If it weren’t for your custom-made, one-of-a-kind wristwatch, Wanci wouldn't have mistaken people and thought Bo Jingzhou…”

She was forced to get married after getting into bed.

Back then, Wanci said she was too nervous and accidentally drank a few too many cups while waiting. She was tipsy and dozed off at the table. Someone helped her up from her seat. She didn't see who it was, but she saw a watch on their wrist.

Because Nie Yu Cheng had once said that his watch was custom-made, the only one in the world, and with the prerequisite of bribing a waiter to help him deliver a message to Nie Yu Cheng, Shen Wan Ci's first reaction...was that the visitor was Nie Yu Cheng.

Moreover, the aura emanating from her was also familiar to him.

She followed the man with little resistance. Along the way, she tried to make out his face, but she was too dizzy. She could only see the man's smooth jawline, which seemed like Nie Yu Cheng.

She asked him how he was thinking about marriage, and the man simply replied, "Um."

Shen Wanci then thought that he had agreed.

"A watch?" Nie Yu Cheng was wearing that very watch today. He rolled up his shirt sleeve, "This one?"

This plaque was given to him later by Bo Jingzhou. His original one... well, coincidentally, it was lost on the night of a gathering several years ago.

That table, though expensive, wasn't anything important to them. They didn't mind losing it at all.

If it hadn't been for Bo Jingzhou mentioning it at the last banquet and giving him one, he would have forgotten about it.

Qin Yuezhi's mood was sour, and her attitude naturally wasn't very good. "What, do you have a lot of custom forms left?"

"Sorry, I have to excuse myself for a moment." Nie Yucheng's face had turned completely pale. He hastily left behind those words and quickly strode towards the elevator...

Ward 507.

Bo Jingzhou stared at Shen Wanci who had been sitting on the stool since she came in, completely ignoring her. His face was cold, and his voice even colder, "What? Am I interrupting you and your white moonlight exchanging loving glances? Not happy?"

" ..."

"If I hadn't come downstairs, were you going to run away with someone?"

“ ”

Bo Jingzhou wasn't the type to lower himself and coax someone, nor was he the type to let a woman give him attitude. After being ignored for several questions, his face turned completely dark, "Shen Wanci, I'm talking to you, what is this attitude?"

Before Shen Wanci could even stay silent, the door to the ward was pushed open.

Nie YuCheng walked in from outside, his usual warm smile vanished, replaced by coldness.

He looked at Shen Wanci, “Wanci, I have something I want to talk to Jingzhou about in private.”

"Oh, okay. I'll go downstairs to buy some things."

And even when Bo Jingzhou said several sentences, he was ignored... Bo Jingzhou: "..."

His face was already black as a pot bottom.

As soon as Shen Wanci left, the atmosphere in the ward became even more tense.

Nie Yucheng took off his watch and handed it to Bo Jingzhou, "How does it work?"

Seeing this table and hearing his tone, Bo Jingzhou knew exactly what he meant.

His face was already cold, and now it was even more frigidly beautiful. "It's quite useful, you know. If I didn't have it, I wouldn't know how to get her to come with me willingly."

Nie Yu Cheng's face turned pale, a cold fury that bordered on losing control. He almost uncontrollably smashed the watch in his hand onto Bo Jing Zhou's face -

"You know she doesn't like you..."

That night, he also drank too much and opened a room in the hotel upstairs, so the next day when he saw Shen Wanci and Bo Jingzhou come out of the hotel together, he didn't mention marriage again.

Bo Jingzhou looked at the wristwatch on the ground, which could be bought by an ordinary person for a set of apartments. He didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly let out a laugh: "So what? Nie Yuchen, you are so angry now, isn't it because you think it's your fault that Shen Wanci slept with me? But in her situation at the time, do you think it was better to sleep with me or be sold to Southeast Asia by those debt collectors?"

He stood straight, looking at Nie Yu Cheng with an indifferent expression. "Are you still going to accept her terms and marry her to help her pay off her debts?"

Finally, Bo Jingzhou sneered: "Shen Wanci is stupid to find you, but we both know that you couldn't marry her back then, and you couldn't help her pay off the debt either."

Even if the Nie family wouldn't object to Nie Yu Cheng marrying a down-on-her-luck heiress, at that time, their own family had a major project that desperately needed funding. There was no way they could afford to use their money to pay off the debts of a woman who offered little practical value.

You shouldn't deceive her, and you shouldn't use me to deceive her.

Nie Yucheng felt very uneasy right now. He had been abroad before and didn't know about the relationship between Shen Wanci and Bo Jingzhou, but he figured it must have been bad, otherwise she wouldn't insist on divorcing him. Now Qin Yuezhi had inadvertently said those words... He felt that all of this was his fault.

“But she likes you,” the words sparked a self-inflicted pleasure in Bo Jingzhou’s heart, “She thought that night’s man was you, and called your name.”
