Chapter 259: Conditions

Mrs. Mai looked at with disgust in her eyes. Sadly, I didn’t care.
“I’ve checked your background.” She went straight to the point. Her tone was cold and her aura was overbearing.
I smiled. “Perhaps I should find ti to beautify my background. So many people are digging it up. With all these digging, even the cleanest thing will be dirtied.”
Mrs. Mai was stunned. Probably no one had talked to her like that before. Plus she also didn’t understand what I ant.
She adjusted her posture and ignored my words. “I am not against Mai Qi making friends but you are not a suitable candidate. You need to leave her.”
I nodded. “Then Madam, do you plan to bring Mai Qi away? Send her overseas to go study? She’s in a university now, it’ll be hard to arrange for a transfer but I’m sure it’ll be easy for Madam.”
She glared at . “Why should she leave? You should be the one who leaves!”
I shrugged. “You’ve checked my background. You know that I have used a lot of effort to get into M University so why would I leave? Furthermore, M City is my ho, where am I supposed to go?”
“I can fund you to study abroad! You can go to any country you want,” she said lightly.
I smiled. This was her first offer.
“Madam, first of all, I don’t lack money so I don’t need your sponsor to study abroad. Secondly, I don’t really wish to study abroad, I like to stay here.” I then realized having money was a good thing. It gave you a backbone. If I was Nanxing from my previous life, I reckoned I would have sold Mai Qi out already. But of course, that was just thinking about it.
Mrs. Mai sneered, “Then what does Miss Nan lack?”
I pondered for a mont. “I’m sorry, Madam, I don’t seem to lack anything.”
Mrs. Mai looked at with ice in her eyes. “Then what if I make it so that you will end up lacking sothing?”
I was stunned. This was a blatant threat.
I smiled. It was indeed different dealing with the empress. “Madam, what is it that you might deprive of?”
“That depends on what you care about the most.” Mrs. Mai sounded victorious.
I nodded. “So Madam, are you going to exchange the thing I care about the most for what you want?”
She nodded plainly and arrogantly.
“All that just to keep away from Mai Qi?” I asked.
“No, it’s to make you permanently disappear from Mai Qi’s life.” Mrs. Mai’s smile was domineering.
“Is that really everything?” I refused to believe there was nothing else.
Mrs. Mai sneered, “No wonder they say you’re very clever.”
I smiled at the complint.
“I also need you to leave Jing Tian and return him to Gu Yan.” Mrs. Mai looked at like I had no choice but to agree to her demands.
That was the sound of the other boot falling. This was the real reason she had co to .
“Looks like Mrs. Mai cares a lot about your new stepdaughter. You are doing so much for her.” My smile faded.
Mrs. Mai didn’t say anything.
“I an, to chase away from Mai Qi, I can understand that as a mother’s concern for her daughter. But to demand a man from his fiance to satisfy your stepdaughter, is that what a mother should do? What kind of twisted mother’s love is that?”
Mrs. Mai frowned. “Nanxing, where’s your culture? Where is your respect to your elders?”
I smiled faintly. “Madam, you’ve already checked my background. How can an orphan like myself be cultured? Furthermore, respect goes both ways. Why should I be respectful to soone who doesn’t show respect?”
Mrs.. Mai’s expression changed.
