Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns

Chapter 362 - It Never Comes With a Cheap Price (2)

Li Yuanyi left Peach Blossom Garden once he was done talking to the devil, deciding to settle his debt to Feng Tianyi once and for all so he wouldn't have to worry about his back being watched by the devil.

Everyone knew that the devil didn't like a debt that was left cold for too long. It was either the other party pay it upfront or he would find another way to gain what the person owed him.

How many businessmen had lost everything just because the devil demanded them for the payment they owed him? Every deal made the devil would cost them the same value, whether the other party liked it or not.

Song Fengyan decided to hang out a little bit more to spend time with the little buns, who he hadn't seen for some time due to his busy schedule. He would take this rare chance to relax and eat to his heart's content.

Now, since the hardest part was already over, he had a lot of time to spend for himself. Meanwhile, Tang Moyu made several phone calls to catch up with what she'd missed this morning, since she wasn't able to go to work.

Thankfully, Lu Tianxin was at the company to cover for her and Cheng Ning was able to move and reschedule some of her appointments today.

"Thank you, Cheng Ning. I apologize for not making a call earlier today." She told her assistant.

"Oh, no. Don't worry about it. Mr. Qin called early in the morning to tell me that you wouldn't be able to make it today. Are you feeling better now, Miss Moyu?"

"Ohh, I'm alright." Tang Moyu chewed her lip and looked away, although her assistant couldn't see her at the moment. "I'm feeling better. Thank you."

Just what did Feng Tianyi tell Cheng Ning as an excuse for her absence today?

"Anyway, everything is settled for now, Miss Moyu. Just let me know if you're still not coming to work tomorrow."

"No. I'll be there tomorrow." Tang Moyu replied, not giving Cheng Ning a chance to doubt her.

The empress berated herself for the mistake she made last night. She should have known what could possibly happen to her, especially after what had happened five years ago. Although she must admit, she felt better compared to the last time.

"Don't push yourself if you aren't ready, Miss Moyu. Mr. Qin said you weren't in good shape this morning and were too tired to move." She heard Cheng Ning say on the other end of the line.

Tang Moyu cursed Feng Tianyi inwardly. Just what kind of nonsense did the devil spout? She decided to give him a piece of her mind later.

"Thank you, Cheng Ning. But I'm really good now. I'll see you tomorrow." She said before hanging up. Her attention went back to her boyfriend, who was casually reading a book at the gazebo as if he hadn't done anything.

"Moyu if you are still tired, perhaps you should go in and get some more sleep." Feng Tianyi said without breaking his attention from the book he was reading.

"No. I'd rather stay here awake. Who knows what kind of incubus would dare to attack me in my slumber." She scoffed, making the devil chuckle.

"Hey! Don't say I didn't warn you. I gave you the power of choice. The free will to decide for yourself." He said in defense, lifting his head to look at her.

Tang Moyu narrowed her gaze on him and rolled her eyes.

"Thanks, Darling. That's really reassuring." She retorted.

Free will? That's bullshit. More like he coerced her until it was too late for her to realize what was happening. Still, she didn't like to feel vulnerable, even if it was in front of Feng Tianyi.

"So Li Yuanyi was the one who paid the price, huh? Didn't think you'd charge the poor man such a hefty amount for Meng Yanran." She said, changing the topic between them.

"Oh, Moyu. You and I both know that 1.2 million is nothing for someone like Li Yuanyi." Feng Tianyi closed the book he was reading and grinned at the empress. "Isn't it reasonable for me to also need to earn something from this deal?"

"He did all of this for Meng Yanran without her being aware of it? Why couldn't he just go and talk to her himself?" Tang Moyu didn't understand.

Was Meng Yanran even aware of what Li Yuanyi was doing for her? Why was Li Yuanyi keeping all of this under the wraps?

"Because he loves her, that's why. In an idiotic way, if I may be bold to say." The devil hummed, his head turning to the right when he heard Little Star's laughter from afar. It sounded like tinkling bells into his ears. The girl looked happier and healthier these days.

"Well, people deal with love in different ways, right? What you can easily do might be hard for someone like Li Yuanyi." Tang Moyu tried to reason out.

Feng Tianyi frowned. What Li Yuanyi did was stupid. He had wasted his chances and let Meng Yanran marry another man without making an effort to win her instead. Unlike him, the first time he knew he wanted Tang Moyu, his eyes had been set with her.

There was no way he would allow her to be taken away by others! He would be damned if Tang Moyu chose another man, other than him.

"I say, not all men are as brave and reckless as you." The empress shrugged. If there was something she knew about her best friend's older brother, that would be Li Yuanyi was socially awkward, especially when it comes to women.

Tang Moyu had already lost count how many times Li Meili had made fun of her brother when it came to women. Li Meili had tried to set up her own brother several times, but Li Yuanyi had stood all of them up for whatever reason that Tang Moyu had yet to find out to this day.
