You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345 Friendly Duel

Wu Nian knew what Liu Yan was implying.

Liu Yan thrives for freedom. She willingly moved out of her parents’ house and rented a room outside in the name of freedom. She even left her stable job in obstetrics and gynecology just because she wanted freedom.

However, she stayed by Shen Yiyan’s side for the past two years because of her.

“It will come,” Wu Nian consoled.

“What is coming?” Shen Yiyan walked in. His gaze swept over Wu Nian and landed on Liu Yan.

“It’s just girls-talk. Why? Are you interested? Shen Yiyan, why don’t you become a woman in your next life? Oh wait, you can become a woman in this life as well since our medical technologies are so advanced now.” Liu Yan deflected his question.

Shen Yiyan walked up to her side. “What will you do if I become a woman? Fingering just doesn’t feel as good as the real deal,” he said with a straight face.

Liu Yan was speechless.

Her face reddened.

How could he say such things in public?

Liu Yan leaned on Wu Nian’s bed said smilingly, “Don’t you worry. I can find another man any time.”

Shen Yiyan was livid. He snapped coldly, “What did you say?”

Liu Yan knew he was angry and felt afraid. But, she didn’t want to back down. “Are you deaf?”

Shen Yiyan sneered, “Don’t worry, I’ll make you into a man if I turn into a woman one day, When that day comes, I’ll make you do all the work since you’re so disobedient. It’s very tiring to have to do all the work and make you feel comfortable at the same time you know.”

He was going a little overboard. His eyes were full of lust as he stared at Liu Yan.

Liu Yan, however, wasn’t as thick-skinned. “Get out. I want to have a chat with Wu Nian.”

“You have one hour,” Shen Yiyan said coldly before turning around and left.

Wu Nian frowned as she watched him leave.

If Shen Yiyan wasn’t the commander-in-chief and was single, she would have considered playing cupid. After all, they had a child together.

What a pity Shen Yiyan was out of the picture since he was a married man.

Liu Yan quickly locked the door behind Shen Yiyan after he walked out.

Shen Yiyan’s frown deepened when he heard the closing and locking of the door behind him.

“I’ll be sleeping with Wu Nian today. Don’t wait for me if I don’t come out after an hour.” Liu Yan placed her hands on her hips as she spoke. She turned around and sat back down on Wu Nian’s bed when he didn’t reply.

“Nian, I think I really can leave him if you recover,” Liu Yan said excitedly.

She had a short temper but could calm down quickly.

“Shen Yiyan is an unpredictable man. You mustn’t let your guard down,” Wu Nian reminded.

“He promised me he’ll allow us to travel the world for a month with Bao if I can get him the Dream Girl. I’ve already prepared our Dartan’s ID since Shen Yiyan doesn’t have much power there. Moreover, he has a powerful enemy there. He’ll be doomed if he ever steps foot in the country. I’ll be worry-free once I get there.” Liu Yan was getting really excited as she spoke.

“Keep a low profile. I have a feeling it won’t be easy to deal with Shen Yiyan.” Wu Nian had an uneasy feeling about it.

“We’ll worry about him later. How do I make a successful bid for the painting with eight million?”

Wu Nian sat up and googled for any news related to Dream Girl on her phone.

“Dream Girl is one of famous artist Stephen’s early works. It’s a portrait of a Xyperian jeweler’s daughter and an abstract masterpiece.” Liu Yan read and looked in Wu Nian’s direction.

Wu Nian then googled for Stephen and found that his paintings could sell up to seven hundred thousand.

“It’s only seven hundred thousand, so eight million should be enough,” Liu Yan said uncertainly.

Nevertheless, Wu Nian had an uneasy feeling about it. “Shen Yiyan must have his reasons for setting his budget to eight million. The painting’s value might increase after the artist dies. Or perhaps it’s not how much the painting is worth, but the meaning behind owning the painting.”

“How should we go about it?” Liu Yan was confused. She whipped out her phone and search for news about Stephen’s death.

“Bai, look, netizens said Stephen has disappeared for two years. Maybe he’s really dead.”

“It’s just a rumor yet to be confirmed. Although it’s possible to increase the value to a certain amount after the artist dies, going from seven hundred thousand to eight million is just too much. I think there must be some other reason. When is the auction?” Wu Nian asked cautiously.

“Probably the night after tomorrow.”

“Get Stephen’s address from Shen Yiyan. We’ll visit him tomorrow,” Wu Nian suggested.

“Great. We’ll find out the painting’s worth since you’re an outstanding psychologist. Get some rest now. I’ll go talk to Shen Yiyan.” Liu Yan ran out of the lab in a hurry, totally forgetting what she said about sleeping with Wu Nian tonight.

Compared to having freedom, temporary suffering meant nothing to her.

“Shen Yiyan. Shen Yiyan.” Shen Yiyan heard Liu Yan’s voice before she even reached him.

No one else in the manor dared call him by his full name except for her. He placed his phone down and cast his gaze at the door.

Liu Yan skipped in and went straight to the point. “I want to visit Stephen tomorrow. He’s the artist who painted Dream Girl.

“But I don’t know where he is.”

Liu Yan was at a loss for words.

He doesn’t know or he doesn’t want to tell me?

Liu Yan frowned and walked up to him. “Then why do you need the painting?”

“The woman in the painting is Mo Xue. Not only is she a jeweler, but also owns lots of precious stones. She’s recently looking for a partner to develop A City’s market.”

“Surely you won’t have any competitor since you’re the commander-in-chief, right?” Liu Yan was confused.

“Things don’t always turn out as expected. Eight million is my budget. I can only let this opportunity slip through my fingers if there’s no way to get it. Anyway, there’s no real business opportunity without risk.” Shen Yiyan gave her a knowing look.

Liu Yan had a feeling he meant it as a warning for her.

“I’ll go tell Wu Nian about it then.”

Shen Yiyan scooped her into his arms the moment she turned around. Liu Yan tensed up. “Shen Yiyan, what are you doing? Put me down.”

“Didn’t you say I wasn’t good in bed? Well, I’d like to learn more,” he said wickedly and carried her into the bedroom.

Liu Yan knew what he was implying. “We’ve already had sex just now.”

“Well, much like eating, can’t a person eat the same food again?” he said matter-of-factly.

“We’ve already had sex today.” Liu Yan emphasized the word “today.”

“Well, a person could eat more than one meal a day.”

Liu Yan was speechless.

She struggled to get away from him.

Shen Yiyan felt helpless. He always had to force her into it. How could she blame him for not being good in bed when she wouldn’t relax and go with the flow? “Be a good girl now. I’ll let you in on a secret if I’m in a good mood.”
