Chapter 298: Chapter 298 Pleasant Cooperation

Hearing the name Yun Shifei, Qin Yumo sobered up considerably and gestured for the others to leave first.

The private room was left with only Qin Yumo and Wen Lin. Qin Yumo turned to her and said, "Spit it out—what’s up?"

Wen Lin saw his sudden shift to seriousness and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

Qin Yumo really was predictable, utterly powerless against beautiful women.

"I heard you’re pretty fond of her, chasing her for ages, but still haven’t succeeded."

Hearing the mocking tone in Wen Lin’s voice, Qin Yumo snorted coldly, "So what? I like taking my time."

Wen Lin shook her head, "A professional at making excuses for yourself."

Just as Qin Yumo was about to blow his top, Wen Lin added, "What if I can help you win her over? How will you repay me?"

At her words, Qin Yumo’s usual easy-going demeanor disappeared instantly. His eyes narrowed dangerously. "Help me?"

It seemed Wen Lin had never seen this expression on Qin Yumo before, and she was momentarily stunned. Soon, Qin Yumo returned to his usual frivolous self, asking, "What’s the price?"

"Not much. I just don’t want to keep being tied to you because of our families’ matchmaking schemes."

Sick and tired.

Even though she and Qin Yumo were childhood friends, around the same age, she couldn’t bring herself to like him even a bit.

Qin Yumo had been excessively mischievous since he was young. Back then, she had long hair, and whenever they met, he loved pulling her braids.

He was always pulling pranks, laughing heartily every time he made her cry.

As they grew up, her grades improved drastically, and their elders often used her as an example to lecture Qin Yumo, which only made him dislike her even more.

Meanwhile, she also despised Qin Yumo for being an idle, unmotivated man.

In summary, she had never been able to respect Qin Yumo.

Yet now, their families wanted them to marry for the sake of closer ties.

She had once thought to herself—if resistance was futile, and they did have to marry, divorce would be inevitable.

Qin Yumo heard Wen Lin’s words and smiled faintly, "Ah Lin, you must have been holding back for years."

Unmoved by his words, Wen Lin replied indifferently, "I hope we can both be with the people we truly love."
