"You didn’t do anything wrong, you just used the wrong method." Ye Tianjing didn’t want to continue entangling with her: "Put on your clothes, I’ll take you back."

"No, I don’t want to go back. Once I return, my parents will force me to marry someone I don’t love." Zhao Xiao shook her head repeatedly.

Seeing her like this, it seemed she planned to cling to him.

Ye Tianjing, feeling helpless, walked back into the room.

Remembering that Zhao Xiao didn’t have clothes, he made a phone call to ask someone to send a set over.

Then, he called Ye Ranran.

After hearing the whole story, Ye Ranran laughed and said, "Looks like she’s planning to cling to you."

"You still have the mood to laugh? Quickly give me some advice, what should I do?"

It’s truly frustrating; people say shameless men are annoying, but I never thought women could be just as shameless as men.

This marriage has become like forced buying and selling, something new he’s learning.

"Don’t you already have an idea in mind? Why are you asking me?" Clearly knowing what to do, yet still seeking her advice?

If he truly didn’t know, she could offer some suggestions.

"I’m thinking of giving her some money and chasing her away; wouldn’t that be too much?"

After all, the person likes him, would it be too cruel to treat her like this?

"I think you’re being kind already. For someone you don’t like who’s being so persistent, you need to give her a hard lesson before she knows to restrain herself."

Ye Ranran was actually quite annoyed by such people. Liking someone isn’t wrong, she acknowledged, but causing trouble for others is indeed wrong.

With Ye Ranran’s support, Ye Tianjing felt less burdened.

Soon, the clothes arrived.

Ye Tianjing stuffed the clothes into Zhao Xiao’s hands: "Change your clothes, I’ll take you back."

Zhao Xiao grasped his sleeve, softly pleading: "Don’t send me away, okay?"

"No." Ye Tianjing decisively refused: "How many times do I need to tell you, I don’t like you, I won’t be with you, have you even listened?"

"But you don’t have anyone you like. Why not try liking me?"

She would love him deeply, more than any other woman, and then he would find that in this world, there was no one more suitable for him than her.

"Do you like me as a person, or my status?" Ye Tianjing suddenly asked.

He wasn’t foolish; the Ye Family was once a prominent family; he’s seen all sorts of people, and he wasn’t some naive youth.

He could clearly see the desire and greed in Zhao Xiao’s eyes.

Even though she thought she was hiding it well, her eyes betrayed her.

"Of course you as a person." Zhao Xiao felt a bit flustered inside, but kept a sincere face.

"Really? What if I told you I owe nearly a hundred million in debt, would you still like me?"

He had already paid off part of that debt, but it was a drop in the ocean, unsure when he could clear it entirely.

Luckily, the bank had stopped urging him, making him feel much more relaxed.

Ye Tianjing didn’t know Ye Ranran had already helped him pay off the debt.

Every time he made a payment, it was deposited into the account she had opened for him.

That money was meant for him to marry in the future.

"How is that possible?" Zhao Xiao instinctively thought Ye Tianjing was joking.

He was Ye Ranran’s older brother, living in such a nice house, driving a good car, how could he possibly owe so much money?

"Don’t believe me? You can go to A City and ask around, see how I used to be chased around by creditors and what kind of life I led."
