Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant! by White Moon Lake

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Let’s Talk

"No," Xiao Caizi’s expression suddenly turned sharp, an intensity flashed across her face that demanded respect and couldn’t be underestimated.

Perhaps she had never been as harmless and gentle as she appeared on the surface. But to Bo Jingshen, this actually made things much simpler.

If the other party were truly a harmless little bunny, he would have to be careful with his words even in negotiations, to not hurt their feelings.

But since she was not a little bunny, perhaps even a thousand-year-old fox, things became much simpler.

Bo Jingshen’s eyes turned cold, and his expression instantly shifted to a strictly businesslike negotiating demeanor.

"You can name a price; the details can be negotiated further," Bo Jingshen stared at her, "as long as the price is not excessive, I will consider it seriously. Jing Ce needs this marital alliance; I do not. And if he promised your family certain conditions or promised you some benefits for this union, I am open to discussion."

Xiao Caizi took another small bite of the salt and pepper duck neck, then lightly sucked on her fingers. To be honest, if this was supposed to be a negotiation.

Xiao Caizi shook her head, "I don’t intend to name any price."

Bo Jingshen frowned deeply, "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, I have no intention of refusing this marriage proposal," Xiao Caizi looked up at him, then slowly wiped her hands with a napkin.

She could feel the atmosphere around her change, as if the air pressure had suddenly dropped. Even the temperature seemed cooler, with the man sitting across from her having a face as cold as frost.

His entire demeanor seemed to emit a chilling air.

So much so that even if she wanted to treat the matter with nonchalance, she couldn’t.

Xiao Caizi held her glass, swirling the liquid inside.
