Chapter 127: Where There’s a Will, There’s a Way (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Lin Qingya insisted otherwise instead, claiming that the man did not like her and that love could not be forced.

The more she insisted, however, the more Mrs. Gu reckoned that her son must never miss out on this angel even if it was not in the name of responsibility!

Maddened at her son’s refusal to oblige, she thus refused to eat her meals. Being poor in health in the first place, she would get easily sick if she went on hunger strikes. Hence, her husband and her father naturally exerted pressure on her son over this matter.

Right at this point, Lin Qingya then suggested to Gu Chenyi that they play pretend couple to appease his mom’s anger first and, after some time of “dating,” they would then tell her that they were not suitable for each other and would “break up.”

In that case, his mother would not ask him for anything more.

The man felt grateful and indebted to her to the point that he saw her as an angel!

It reinforced his belief of her being a wondrous and hard-to-come-by girl!

This was why he found Mu Huan to be simply vile when she told him that the other woman had schemed against him. The latter was such an angel who treated them so sincerely and wholeheartedly, but all she got in return was her bestie’s slanders!

As the saying went, “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” The scariest thing in this world is an opportunist.

Mu Huan was no fool, but the reason for her being deceived for years was because of her lack of ill intention to be planning schemes against others and her refusal to see the bad in others. Being someone who sees only the good in people, she naturally failed to see the bad in Lin Qingya.

This was the opposite for the latter, who would carefully plan out everything and, oftentimes, achieve results with half the effort due to her pure and innocuous appearance.

After buying a few pieces of clothes that she liked very much, she insistently refused to buy any more regardless of what Gu Chenyi had to say.

“How are we going to account it to my mom if you buy so little?” Apart from being afraid of his mother’s nagging at him, he wanted to compensate her in monetary form.

“How about this: why don’t we buy some gifts for those pitiful orphans? The little ones will surely be overjoyed to see me coming with presents later in the afternoon!” suggested the woman with the look and aura of the Virgin Mary.

The man was impressed with how kindhearted and upright she had grown up to be despite her coming from a poor background with an abusive stepfather. In contrast, Mu Huan grew up in a sea of love but, at her mother’s premature passing, she had been led astray. This rebellious girl, who would do anything for the sake of money, was simply too base!

No harm would be caused without comparisons, but once he did so, he could not find a justifiable excuse to explain her being led astray no matter how hard he tried.

“As long as you’re happy.” After that, he did not say anything more.

Lin Qingya became very generous during the buying of gifts for the orphan children. She bought plenty and they were only of the best.

That helped chalk up a few points of the man’s fondness for her in her favor. Gu Chenyi just could not fathom how she, being Mu Huan’s childhood friend and bestie, could be far better in character than the other. She could not bear to buy anything for herself, yet she was so generous toward the children.

At this point, the man had forgotten clean that it was his money that she was spending. Who would feel heartache about it if they were to be given the chance to do a favor to someone while making an impression of themselves at someone else’s expense?

So, of course, she could be so freehanded in her spending!

It just so happened to be sunset by the time the two reached the orphanage in his car. And so, under that stunning sunset, the woman in a white dress, with a gentle and pure smile on her face, handed out presents to the children amid their innocent laughter. It painted an extremely heartwarming and beautiful scene!

Once again, he could not help but sigh inwardly. Why can’t the one I like be this wondrous girl?
