Truth be told, Nan Chen knew Ning Ran would definitely counter offer him the moment she figured out the actual cost of his blazer.

After all, she had always been known as a stingy woman. It would be impossible to get her to compensate him a few hundred thousand.

Literally, she was one of the stingiest women he had encountered throughout his entire life.

Therefore, she would never hand over the sum to him, even if she had the requested sum.

In short, she was merely being courteous to prove her sincerity when she offered to compensate him for his loss.

“Where exactly are we heading over for a meal?”

“What do you have in mind? As long as it doesn’t cost more than fifty, you’re free to name your cravings!” Ning Ran announced.

“Fifty?”

“Yes! Fifty for the both of us! The first fifty is on me, but please foot the bill on behalf of us if it cost more than fifty by the end of our meal!” Ning Ran suggested with a bright grin.

Nan Chen was rendered speechless because she didn’t seem to have meant her words at all.

Fifty for the both of us? Has she really considered buying me a meal? She’s not sincere at all!

“I don’t want to have a meal with you anymore. Why don’t you compensate me for the loss of my blazer instead?” Nan Chen bleated.

“Huh? Why? What’s the fun there is to it? You know I’m as broke as a church mouse, right? How am I supposed to afford tens of thousands?”

“Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure you’re not going to foot the bill, even if you have that kind of money. Am I right?”

Ning Ran avoided Nan Chen’s gaze, effusing in return, “Wow! You’re such a brilliant man, Mr. Chen! You should keep that between us since we have come to a unanimous agreement.”

“Why? Are you embarrassed?” Nan Chen scoffed.

“Isn’t it obvious? I’m an accountable woman, alright? However, I’m relatively sensitive when it comes to money because I have been broke over the past few years. I dislike wasting my money. I hope you’re able to see where I’m coming from, Mr. Chen.”

“Aren’t you supposed to be in a foul mood after the incident you have gone through? I mean, you have been wrongly accused by others, right?” Nan Chen found Ning Ran’s behavior odd.

“Initially, I was about to fall into the vicious cycle of despair, but I felt better since you told me that you have faith in me,” Ning Ran declared.

Nan Chen stared at her in the eyes silently the moment Ning Ran finished her sentence.
