Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband

Veronica swore that if the person before her was not Matthew, she would have gone after him for his

attractive face and asked him to be her boyfriend. But, remembering the odious heart beneath this good–

looking face, she couldn‘t allow herself to think any further.

Seeing that he did not answer her question, she continued saying, “You‘re the one who told me to get the

clothes, correct? You have to leave some proof; if not, how am I going to get them?”

“Yes, I will give you all the clothes in my wardrobe.”

“This is merely a broad statement of yours. Come with me.”

She then held his hand, pulled him to the room, and opened his wardrobe. She filmed him again,

followed by the clothes in the wardrobe, and asked, “These are the clothes to be given to me, correct?”

“Yes.”

“Free of charge, no regrets, and you wouldn‘t demand any payment from me, right?”

“Yes”

Veronica laughed. “Good, as long as there is evidence.”

Smilingly, she saved that video recording into her phone gallery and kept her phone.

However, just when she was about to tidy up the clothes, Matthew‘s eyes lit up. “Um… I‘ve been playing

a game recently, and you‘re skilled in games, right? Could you share some experience with me?”

“What?”

A game? When she heard what he said, her jaws dropped. She had previously assumed that it was

impossible for him to play games since he was so busy with his work, and it had never occurred to her

that he would seek her guidance. “Gaming is based on experiences; hence, it‘s impossible for me to

teach you for free.”

Needless to say, her response was well within Matthew‘s expectation, with only variations in a few words.

He remained calm and asked, “How much is your fee to guide me on training three heroes, from now to

tomorrow?”

“From now until tomorrow, that‘s one full day and one night. Such a fee would be… Hmm… Let me

think…”

Thinking of what to say, she pursed her lips with one arm crossed before her and another touching her

jaws, and her gleaming eyes looked at him every now and then.

Recalling the time in Twilight Club where he took one million from her, and another time when he called

the police to arrest her, she figured that she would not waste such a scarce opportunity to deal with him.

After considering all these, she said, “At least fifty thousand. No discount. My capability is worth it.”

“Forget it, I‘ll ask Thomas to find someone else tomorrow, and most probably there will be others with a

cheaper fee.”

Leaving these words, Matthew turned around and left. Yet, his steps were small with a slow speed, as if

he was anticipating something.

“Huh? Hey, wait a minute. We can discuss this.”

How could she let go of such a golden opportunity? Veronica pulled him, walked past him, and stood

before him. Smilingly, she said, “Tell me how much you‘re thinking of. I‘ll give you a discount in light of

our relationship.”

“Ten thousand.”

“Sh*t, Matthew Kings, you‘re going overboard. I merely said I will give you a discount, but not to this

extent. The most I can deduct is… ten thousand.”

“No, ten thousand to be the entire fee.”

“Well, then thirty–five thousand.”

“Ten thousand.”

“Thirty thousand!”

“Fifteen thousand, nothing more.”

“Nay, twenty thousand. Twenty thousand—and that‘s final. It cannot be any lesser.”

“Ten thousand.”

“Matthew Kings, what do you mean? You said fifteen thousand moments ago, and now it‘s ten thousand

again? Can you be more reasonable?”

“Fifteen thousand seems to be a little expensive.”

“Expensive, my foot! You‘re so stingy! Forget it, I‘ll take fifteen thousand. Transfer this amount to me first

and remember to refer to it as ‘the fees for learning games.”

Being so defensive against him, Veronica felt that she was living in trepidation. He transferred fifteen

thousand to her on the spot. Happily receiving the money, she felt that he appeared more appealing to

her eyes now.

“Come on, let‘s play the game on the sofa. I‘ll teach you.”

Pulling him to the living room, she sat on the sofa happily and forgot she had a wound on her right hand.

He then sat beside her and turned on the most popular game at the time: Honor of Kings.

Sitting close to each other, she tilted her head toward him, looked at his phone, and asked, “Why are you

suddenly interested in playing games?”

“Because…” You like them.

Throughout her stay in Twilight Club, he had always seen her playing games. Sometimes she played the

computer version, while other times she played with the

phone version, and no matter which version, she was good at them. And, having no idea when this

thought started, he wanted to play with her, thinking that it might be a fun experience.

“Because of what?”

He paused his answer midway and began to keep her guessing. This piqued her interest.

“I play them to kill time. Work is dull and boring, you know.”

“Oh, such a workaholic like you would find working dull too, huh.”

Veronica didn‘t know how to react. Nevertheless, she proceeded to ask him about his view and

understanding of the game. Initially, she was merely sitting beside him. But as they conversed, she

began to lean on the edge of his shoulder. When she felt uncomfortable with her position, she simply

placed her hands over his shoulder and rested her jaw on it.
