Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 The Willing Rich Second-Generation Who Takes on Responsibilities (18)

This time, Sun Ting was completely heartbroken.

She knew that her daughter had lost her mind because of Xiao Yu's sweet talk, so she gritted her teeth and insisted that the 5% shares of Xiao Corporation be put under her name, otherwise, she wouldn't approve the marriage.

Xiao Yu was afraid that Sun Ting and the Shi Family would cause trouble, so he took the initiative to ask Shi Yunyun to agree to it.

In the end, the 5% shares of Xiao Corporation were given to Sun Ting. It was her personal marital property and had nothing to do with the Shi Family.

Shi Yunyun felt that her mother was too greedy and materialistic, so she unilaterally cut off contact with her.

The system had been updating Mingting on the Female Lead's antics every now and then. So now, upon seeing her appear in front of him, Mingting was not surprised at all.

This time, Ming Ting still did not let Shi Yunyun into his house, and made an appointment at the coffee shop last time.

"Mingting, long time no see."

Shi Yunyun had dressed up carefully, wearing a soft pink dress that made her look sweet and innocent.

If one ignored her waterlogged brain, her face alone was deceptively charming.

"If you have something to say, just say it, I'm busy."

Mingting turned on his phone's voice recorder again.

After waiting for so long, the fish had finally taken the bait, so he had to obtain all the evidences.

"Can't I visit you without a reason?"

Shi Yunyun has been spoiled rotten by Xiao Yu recently, making her feel like they were back in their honeymoon phase.

Love has nourished this delicate flower of hers to be fresh and charming, so when she speaks, her words inadvertently carried a playful, coquettish lilt.

"No." Mingting calmly took out his marriage certificate, " Married. Do not disturb. If you want to act else coquettishly, find someone else and don't come to me. I am 100% loyal to my wife."

Seeing the marriage certificate on the table, Shi Yunyun was stunned.

"You're married? Is it with Miss Shen? When did it happen? How come I don't know about it?!"

Shi Yunyun has long been accustomed to being the center of Gu Mingting's world. So now, seeing the red marriage certificate, she couldn't believe it at all.

'How can Gu Mingting get married?'

'Didn't he once say that he would always keep me in his heart and love me forever?!'

"Who do you think you are? Why should I report to you that I'm getting married?"

Mingting pocketed the marriage certificate and stood up.

"If you've got nothing important to say, I'm leaving. You're about to be a mother, so stop arranging private meetings with married men."

Seeing Mingting was about to leave, Shi Yunyun was panicked and blurted out, "Wait! I really have something urgent! Mingting, we've been friends for so many years, you must help me this time!"

The Female Lead was about to cry with red eyes, and Mingting sat down again.

"Alright, tell me. Did Xiao Yu make things difficult for you? After everything you've done for him, shouldn't he be groveling at your feet already?"

Hearing this, Shi Yunyun's heart fluttered.

'Even if Mingting was married, he still cared about me.'

'From what he said, he revealed that if Xiao Yu treated me badly, he would instantly stand up for me!'

Thinking of this, Shi Yunyun became more confident about the purpose of her visit today.

"Xiao Yu treats me wonderfully. Today is my own business. I have a friend who wants to commission a jewelry set for his daughter's coming-of-age gift. Can you help? The design fee is 500,000..."

Before Shi Yunyun finished speaking, Mingting cut her off.

"Shi Yunyun, is it fun to lie? I heard that someone paid a lot of money to order custom jewelry set from Xiao Corporation, and the deposit alone was 5 million US Dollars. Since when did the client become your 'friend'?"

Seeing her lie was exposed by Mingting, it left Shi Yunyun somewhat embarrassed, but even more self-righteous.

"Mingting, since you already know everything, just help me! Speaking of which, this is kind of your fault to begin with."

"If it weren't for the client liking 'Spring Goddess', they wouldn't have specifically requested me as the designer. As the original designer of 'Spring Goddess', shouldn't you take responsibility for causing me all this trouble?"

Shi Yunyun coquettishly complained.

Her shameless, spoiled logic made Mingting laugh in exasperation.

"Get your facts straight! You were the one who wanted to impress Xiao Yu's parents and prove yourself as his equal. You begged me in tears, and I only helped you out of consideration for our childhood friendship. It was indeed me who designed the 'Spring Goddess', but you took all the credit and benefits, and now you're blaming me? Just because I'm talented, I should shoulder the blame?"

"Shi Yunyun, do you still have shame? I can't help you with this matter, and don't come looking for me ever again."

After saying this, Mingting turned and left without looking back.

"Mingting! Mingting!"

Shi Yunyun chased after him for a few steps, but Mingting quickly disappeared from sight.

Shi Yunyun stomped her feet a couple of times in frustration before sitting on the chair, consumed by worry.

After Xiao Yu regained his freedom, he took Shi Yunyun to meet the steward of Prince Sahara. The steward admired the Spring Goddess very much, so he signed the agreement on the spot, and paid the deposit.

Seeing how happy Xiao Yu was, Shi Yunyun didn't dare to tell him that she didn't know how to design, which is why she had to secretly come to Mingting for help.

But who would've thought that Mingting, who had always obeyed her every whim, would outright refuse?

The contract's penalty clause was very steep. For now, she could use her recent pregnancy and physical discomfort as an excuse to buy some time, but that wouldn't hold forever.

What should she do if she couldn't produce the design drafts when the deadline arrived?!

Shi Yunyun was anxious and irritated. She distractedly scrolled through her phone, watching random videos.

Suddenly, she stumbled upon a jewelry design video by an account called 'Ordinary Little Artist'.

After watching all the videos of this account, a bold idea formed in Shi Yunyun's mind.
