CHAPTER 194: CHAPTER 194: OFFERING ONESELF TO SHARE THE BED
Besides, even if the little guy didn’t come out to relay the message, she heard Brother Hu’s voice from outside. If it was before, she would definitely not have the face to stand here again.
But today was different; she came to beg Brother Hu. Moreover, it was for revenge, to destroy Jiang Xue, so she could only endure.
The little guy saw that Cheng Li didn’t leave and went back to tell Brother Hu.
Brother Hu frowned upon hearing this but didn’t stop. Not until he won a round, feeling a bit better, did he ask the little guy beside him, "Is that woman still there?"
"Still standing outside."
"Let her in then."
The little guy went out again and brought Cheng Li in. Brother Hu glanced at Cheng Li, noticing the wound on her face, his eyes flickered, and then he continued to play cards.
Cheng Li stood by without saying anything, watching Brother Hu play cards.
Brother Hu played a few more rounds, and seeing it was getting late, time for lunch, he stopped and said, "No more playing."
As soon as they heard Brother Hu say no more, everyone got up and left. Before leaving, they specifically glanced at Cheng Li. Some recognized her and couldn’t help but say, "Isn’t that Cheng Li from Cheng Family Village?"
"Yes, it’s her."
"I wonder what she’s here to see Brother Hu for?"
"What else could it be, surely nothing good."
The group chatted as they left Brother Hu’s house. After the card players left, Brother Hu looked at Cheng Li and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"Brother Hu, I have something I need your help with."
"Want my help?" Brother Hu looked at Cheng Li with a slight smile, then said, "You do know that anyone who asks for my help must pay a price. I wonder how you intend to pay this price?"
"Brother Hu, I don’t have money," Cheng Li’s eyes flickered as she spoke. She naturally understood the need to pay a price, otherwise, she wouldn’t have come to Brother Hu.
But she also knew, as long as she could afford the price, Brother Hu would not disappoint her.
"No money, huh? Then why are you looking for me?" Brother Hu’s face darkened as he looked at Cheng Li. He wasn’t a philanthropist; he wouldn’t just give with nothing in return.
Cheng Li blushed, her eyes deeply gazing at Brother Hu. She didn’t have money, but she had herself. She considered herself good-looking, with many admirers, many who desired her. So, she felt her body was worth more than money.
"Why are you not speaking?" Brother Hu pretended not to see the hint in Cheng Li’s eyes and directly said, "Since you have no money, go back to where you came from. This place is not a charity."
Cheng Li was unwilling to leave, as she hadn’t achieved her purpose today. So, she hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Brother Hu, raised her hand, and placed it on his shoulder, saying, "Brother Hu, although I don’t have money, I consider myself not bad-looking. If Brother Hu doesn’t mind, I’m willing to stay by your side."
Upon hearing this, Brother Hu turned and seriously scrutinized Cheng Li. He had to admit, if it weren’t for the wound on her face, Cheng Li did look quite acceptable.
So, he withdrew his gaze and said, "Are you offering yourself to me?"
"Would Brother Hu fancy it?"
"A gift handed to me, naturally I’d accept. However, you need to first tell me what help you need. Otherwise, who knows if it’s worth that price?"
"Easily done!" Cheng Li smiled, with a seductive undertone. But unfortunately, the scar on her face marred her allure, otherwise, she would have been quite enticing.
However, Brother Hu was not beguiled by her, instead gently brushed her hand off his shoulder, and said, "Go ahead, what is it?"
