"Why?" Lin Qinghan looked surprised, seemingly not expecting Ling Yi to refuse.
Is it because there isn't enough money?
"I'm not short of money!" Ling Yi shook his head.
Am I not pretty enough?
"It has nothing to do with this!"
Before Lin Qinghan could ask any more questions, Ling Yi said directly, "Acting is fine, but getting a marriage certificate is not."
"But if we don't get a marriage certificate, the lawyer won't recognize it."
Ling Yi shrugged. There was no room for negotiation on this matter.
"I'm sorry, I really can't help you with this!"
"What if they don't get a marriage certificate and it's just an act?"
"Didn't you say that you can't get past the lawyer without getting a marriage certificate?"
Lin Qinghan said helplessly, "We don't have to get a marriage certificate, but I need to get pregnant within a Half Moon to still have inheritance rights."
Ling Yi blinked. "What, you want me to get pregnant for you?"
Is this how it's delivered?
"Don't worry, you only need to be my boyfriend in name only. I can figure out the pregnancy myself."
"Your main job for the next three months is to fend off other suitors for me."
"Shield?"
"Yes, a shield."
"If it's just a shield, anyone can be found!"
Lin Qinghan shook his head. "First, because I find you pleasing to the eye!"
"Secondly, I need a smart person, not a fool."
"Thirdly, there's a family dinner tonight, and there's no time to spare."
"If it's just a shield, then there's no problem."
He's just killing time anyway, so as long as he doesn't violate the system rules or interfere with his ability to farm rewards, it's fine.
"So, you're agreeing?"
"I agree." Ling Yi nodded.
They've already stolen the Protagonist's script, so let's just keep acting!
"Thank you!" Lin Qinghan breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Qinghan is not someone who will compromise.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be 32 years old and still single, never having been in a relationship.
It's not that Lin Qinghan's requirements are very high.
In reality, she doesn't have very high requirements for her partner.
Identity, family background, social standing, and even appearance are unimportant.
Most importantly, it should look pleasing to the eye and feel comfortable.
Ling Yi was the only guy Lin Qinghan Encounter who she found pleasing to the eye and who made her feel comfortable.
This feeling is wonderful.
This was the first time in all these years that a boy had given Lin Qinghan this feeling.
"What kind of work do you do now?" Lin Qinghan asked Ling Yi.
Clearly, Lin Qinghan wanted to understand Ling Yi.
"I have no job, no house, and no car!" Ling Yi said.
Lin Qinghan nodded.
This information is available in Ling Yi's Matchmaker membership information.
"As for savings, well, next month it should break 10 billion."
Lin Qinghan was taken aback.
He asked, somewhat incredulously, "You, have billions in savings?"
You don't believe me!
Lin Qinghan shook her head. "It's not that I don't believe it, it's that I find it hard to believe."
Even the most elite families in Dafeng City have a net worth of only tens of billions.
Even if Lin Qinghan inherits the family fortune, her assets will only amount to a maximum of 5 billion.
This is already a top-tier wealthy family.
Ling Yi, by all accounts, doesn't seem like someone with a net worth of billions.
Ling Yi opened his mobile banking app, went directly to his account page, and showed it to Lin Qinghan.
Lin Qinghan took the phone and tapped the screen a few more times.
After confirming that the picture wasn't photoshopped, I couldn't help but gasp.
What incredible luck!
A casual blind date, a convenient cover-up, turns out to be a hidden super-rich Big Shot?
This is absolutely outrageous!
Even novels wouldn't dare to write like this.
"You..."
"I'm an orphan, with no family background, just a nouveau riche," Ling Yi explained before Lin Qinghan could ask.
"Upstart?"
Who are these nouveau riche families, suddenly becoming billionaires?
"What kind of nouveau riche are you?" Lin Qinghan couldn't help but ask.
"You're asking whether my money is legitimate or not, right?"
"Yes!" Lin Qinghan nodded.
Have you ever heard of Moonlight Stone?
"Is it the Moonlight Stone that's been hyped up to exorbitant prices recently?"
Lin Qinghan had certainly heard of Moonlight Stone.
She was even present at the first few Moonlight Stone auctions.
However, Moonlight Stone is too expensive.
She can't afford it.
Of course, that's not the point. The point is that these Moonlight Stone ultimately ended up in the hands of the government.
Since the government intervened, Moonlight Stone has never appeared at auction again.
Some say that Moonlight Stone is not simply a gemstone.
It is an energy stone containing special energy.
Some say that Moonlight Stone contains an unknown Element humans have never discovered before.
It's impossible to tell whether it's true or false; in short, it's very mysterious.
It is said that a single Moonlight Stone can now fetch an astronomical price of 100 million.
"You're not trying to say that you were the one who sold the Moonlight Stone, are you?"
"Yes!" Ling Yi nodded.
It's no secret that the Moonlight Gem came from Ling Yi.
After all, Ling Yi didn't deliberately conceal his identity when he used the Moonlight Gem several times.
Anyone with a bit of ability can find it.
However, the true value of Spent Spirit Stone has not yet been revealed.
If Ling Yi really manages to discover something from the Spent Spirit Stone, then he probably won't be so leisurely anymore.
"What exactly is that Moonlight Stone?" Lin Qinghan asked.
"Of course, if it involves your secrets, you don't have to tell me."
Ling Yi took out a Spent Spirit Stone and handed it directly to Lin Qinghan.
They were Spent Spirit Stone; they might be treasures to others, but to Ling Yi, they were utterly worthless.
Although the Spent Spirit Stone has lost its Spiritual Power.
But it's still very beautiful.
It has a bright blue cesium color and emits a Yingying glow.
"It's really beautiful. How much does it cost? Can I buy one?" Lin Qinghan asked.
Lin Qinghan comes from a wealthy family and has seen countless top-quality gemstones.
But I've never seen a gemstone of this quality before.
And, I don't know why.
The moment Lin Qinggan touched the Moonlight Stone, she felt a Warmth, subtle energy flow from her fingertips into her body.
The energy was weak, yet clear.
At this moment, Lin Qinghan felt much more relaxed, both physically and mentally.
It was immediately clear that this Moonlight Stone was probably no ordinary stone.
"I'll give you a 90% discount, ten million per pill."
Free? Why should I?!
It's impossible to give it away for free; that would make it seem too worthless.
Ling Yi is neither love-struck nor a sycophant.
Thank you!
Just then, Lin Qinghan was still holding Ling Yi's phone in her hand.
Ling Yi's bank account number is displayed on the mobile banking interface above.
Lin Qinghan transferred ten million directly.
Only then did he hand the phone to Ling Yi.
"Do you need to keep your identity a secret?" Lin Qinghan asked Ling Yi, putting her phone aside.
"Don't say anything for now."
"How should I introduce you that evening?"
"No need for introductions, just show my bank account to the most important person in your life."
"Speak vaguely, and let them fill in the blanks themselves."
Hearing Ling Yi's words, Lin Qinghan smiled slightly.
Being around smart people feels comfortable.
The nearly 10 billion yuan in cash added a layer of mystery to Ling Yi.
The best self-introduction is one that leaves things unsaid and lets your imagination fill in the blanks.
"So, what do we do now?" Ling Yi asked.
"How about we do a rehearsal first?"
Ling Yi chuckled. "Rehearsing? I know this script well."
Just then, a system notification sounded in Ling Yi's mind.
