After getting out of bed, Yue Linze walked out and soon returned with a stack of items. Tao Yu blinked, wondering if he intended to tempt her with money.
…What virtue or ability did she possess to make Master Yue spend so lavishly?
Yue Linze walked back to the bedside, looking down at her and saying, “I didn’t expect your appetite to be so large, actually wanting to become the Yue family’s wife.”
Tao Yu opened her mouth to refute but then thought that if she could make him believe she was insatiably greedy, that might not be bad. She just needed to maintain the right balance. So she gave a bitter smile, seeming to acknowledge Yue Linze’s words, as if with some unavoidable bitter circumstances.
Seeing she didn’t object, Yue Linze threw the items onto her and said casually, “It’s too late today. We’ll register tomorrow.”
Tao Yu was stunned, looking down to see a pile of identification documents. Her heart sank, and Yue Linze lifted her chin.
“Anything else to say?” Yue Linze asked coldly.
Tao Yu’s mouth twitched as she said dryly, “I’m on my period.”
“Tao Yu!” Yue Linze’s eyes narrowed sharply, his sinister expression as if ready to throw her out.
He wasn’t a fool. By now, how could he not see Tao Yu’s rejection? And her previous reasons were all lies, so after careful consideration, there was only one possibility—
Tao Yu had never liked him.
“You’ve been playing me,” Yue Linze said, his eyes almost dripping with blood.
Tao Yu saw his gloomy expression and thought something was wrong. He seemed even more aggressive than before. Remembering he had dealt with Yue Linying and Gu Yansheng, yet the world hadn’t returned to its main personality, she had a bad guess—
Was she now Yue Linze’s source of aggression?!
Thinking this through, she understood why Yue Linying and Gu Yansheng’s successive retribution hadn’t eliminated his aggression. Now it seemed it was because he had fallen for her. Her hurt in this matter caused him pain, and this aggression hadn’t been resolved. Her rejection was making him increasingly angry.
…When had she become so important in Yue Linze’s eyes?!
Tao Yu was completely shocked by her own discovery.
