Returning the money was merely an excuse for Murong Wenxi; without it, how could she find a legitimate reason to seek out Chen Qingyuan in the future?

So, when Chen Qingyuan mentioned there was no need to pay interest, Murong Wenxi sternly refused: "The debt I owe must be repaid. If I don't, wouldn't that tarnish my reputation?"

"Uh... Alright then!"

Chen Qingyuan was out of options, his expression one of helpless resignation.

"Two thousand left, I'll owe you that. Don't worry, I'll definitely pay you back in this lifetime."

Murong Wenxi's tone softened.

Had he known he'd be entangled by Murong Wenxi, Chen Qingyuan would never have agreed to forgo the interest.@@novelbin@@

Sigh! What's done is done, and there was nothing Chen Qingyuan could do about it.

"I've taken the money; it's time for me to go back."

Chen Qingyuan spoke and prepared to leave.

"Wait." Murong Wenxi dismissed her accompanying guards and whispered softly, "I've come all this way to repay you, won't you at least offer me a cup of tea?"

"Please, have a seat!" Left with no choice, Chen Qingyuan returned to the elegant room and poured a cup of fragrant tea.
