Chapter 531 - 538 Using Marriage Transactions_1
Xiao Qingye frowned, struggling to understand Lin Xiangwan’s perspective. "Why do you want custody of the kids? If you give them to your husband, you’re free and can find a better boyfriend. Why burden yourself with two kids? Most people try to leave their kids with the other party when they divorce. Isn’t it a good thing that your husband wants to fight for custody? Why are you fighting back?"
Lin Xiangwan’s face turned grim. "What are you even saying? Do you think my son and daughter are burdens? They’re my two treasures; I can’t bear to leave them!"
"No, no, no, beautiful lady, you’ve got me wrong. I’m just saying that as a woman, you should think more about yourself instead of the kids all the time. Having children restricts you, impedes your progress and limits your opportunities!"
"Enough of your nonsense, can you do it?" Lin Xiangwan, feeling the effects of the alcohol, spoke more forcefully.
Xiao Qingye was notoriously stingy and shrewd. She hadn’t given him anything in return and he was expected to help her? He would be ridiculously naive if he agreed. Even though this didn’t seem to be much of an issue.
He proposed an exchange upfront. "If you spend the night with me, I might consider your request!"
Lin Xiangwan furrowed her brows. "For such a small thing you demand such a high price? And you haven’t even agreed to help yet, but are already asking me to sleep with you? Are you out of your mind? Or have I gone crazy?"
"I can guarantee that I will deliver on what I promise, I’m not a man who goes back on his word!" Xiao Qingye could swear on his character.
Lin Xiangwan looked at him with mockery. "Since I’ve been sitting in this private room with you, for less than two hours, and we haven’t even been talking for half an hour, how am I supposed to know what kind of person you are? Why should I trust you? What’s more, even if we’ve known each other for a long time and I haven’t achieved my goal, why should I pay such a high price? Also, I can guarantee you that I will keep my words. If you help me gain custody of my son and daughter, I will definitely spend the night with you. What do you think?"
Xiao Qingye shook his head. "That won’t work, I never act without a clear gain!"
