Seeing the sincere look in Luo Xingchen’s eyes, Su Tang’s own eyes narrowed and she put on a faint smile and said, “Then do you think we should put in the effort?”
“Absolutely.” Luo Xingchen replied resolutely.
As for why Luo Xingchen had so much trust in Su Tang, perhaps it was because, although Su Tang pursued money like it was her own life and had many calculations and schemes, she had still chosen to set up a cooperation between the two of them even after knowing her true identity.
After all, as a woman who was disguising as a man, she was more or less completely at Su Tang’s mercy. If Su Tang were really a despicable person, she would definitely use her knowledge of Luo Xingchen’s identity to directly threaten her and extort a much greater portion of their joint businesses from her.
From what she knew of Su Tang’s intelligence and ability, Luo Xingchen felt that she would have no ability to resist if the girl were really hostile. She could only admit that a demon was a demon, too powerful for a mortal like her to deal with. There was no way she could successfully out-scheme Su Tang.
However, Su Tang hadn’t done that. Instead, she had trusted her and invited her to set up a fair and cooperative relationship. From this perspective, it could be said that Su Tang was actually helping her, so Luo Xingchen believed in Su Tang and absolutely trusted her.
After all, her biggest secret was in Su Tang’s hands, but Su Tang had not shown any signs of being despicable and taking advantage of her.
This went to show that Su Tang was a person who had moral principles and a certain bottom line she would not cross. And, although Su Tang loved money like life, she was a true gentleman about loving money and insisted on earning it through proper channels.
Moreover, Su Tang’s style of overtly showing off what was in her mind felt much more comfortable to get along with compared to those hypocritical people who like to pretend to be indifferent while always secretly scheming to earn more.
And, in the end, if Luo Xingchen and Su Tang were working together then making money shouldn’t be too difficult for them, which was why Luo Xingchen suggested such a pledge. She sincerely hoped that the two of them wouldn’t end up falling out just because of money or interests. After all, money could be earned but friends were hard to find.
At the same time, she felt moved by the way Su Tang had taken her joking ‘I love yous’ to seriously educate her little brother just now.
“Are you a fool?” Su Tang snorted. Looking at the girl’s delicate face, which was flushed red with excitement, she instantly understood her friend’s meaning.
There were many kinds of people in this world and there were also many different kinds of emotional entanglements but, in the end, Su Tang didn’t believe in the so-called bonds of blood or kinship. Instead, she believed that each individual had their own heart and it was necessary to interact with them to know if they could be trusted.
If Luo Xingchen treated her sincerely then she would also return an equal amount of sincerity. But as for the future, they would have to walk it together to see. She also hoped that they could stay bosom friends, but if it was impossible she wouldn’t try to force it.
“Hehe, well, you said you loved me, so about that 20-80…” Luo Xingchen also understood Su Tang’s meaning so she just laughed it off and then tried to continue the topic just now, that being, scheming against Su Tang to let her relent.
“Second Young Master Luo, until now this Su Tang has always been the one scheming against others, but never the one letting others scheme against me. Do you understand what I mean?” Su Tang directly spoke up, to let Luo Xingchen know that she knew what this guy was up to.
Did Luo Xingchen think she had lived for over 20 years in her previous life completely in vain? She had seen a lot more of the world than a little girl like Luo Xingchen, so how could she be calculated against so easily?
If she wanted her to give up this advantage, it would never happen, moreover, Luo Xingchen shouldn’t even really want her to do so.
Su Tang continued, “Are you stupid? The Luo family and I are ultimately at odds, so what’s in it for you to help them? You should be helping me to trick them together, not trying to speak up on their behalf so they can target me, fool!”
For just this little bit of profit, Luo Xingchen even wanted to speak up for the Luo family, it made Su Tang speechless. Did Luo Xingchen not have any idea what Su Tang represented for her? Without these businesses Su Tang was setting up on the side, she would have no route for retreat if she really ended up falling out with her family.
But, at the same time, Su Tang knew she must keep playing the part of a good business partner to the Luo family so long as she didn’t want to tear off all face with them.
When Luo Xingchen heard Su Tang say all this, she reacted quickly and covered her head with her hands while screaming, “You demon, why do you know everything? You are so terrible!”
After saying this, Luo Xingchen looked at her excitedly and continued, “So I’ve decided to love you for all my life!”
“Then I’ll thank you in advance!” Su Tang rolled her eyes big time. She really didn’t know how she got associated with the shameless rascal who had absolutely no bottom line.
