Her grandfather worked as a soldier when he was young. He was full of righteousness and he was a very strict person. He was always serious. Bao Er lived with him for almost ten years until he passed away when Bao Er was thirteen years old.
Therefore, when she faced Tan Hongtao in front of her, Bao Er suddenly recalled the memory from deep inside her. The clouded memory was fragmented. There was an old man with white hair but unsmiling. He was firm with his method and wasnāt lax at all. This definitely still affected Bao Er somehow to a certain extent when she was young.
Therefore, when Tan Hongtao showed his arrogance as if he was more superior than her, this didnāt scare Bao Er at all.
āYou wish for me to leave Ah Mo?ā Bao Er asked faintly. There was nothing unusual in her tone.
Tan Hongtao nodded, āThis amount of money was enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life. If you leave Ah Mo, believe me that you will have a better life.ā Because he wouldnāt agree to let his grandson marry such an average girl.
Tan Hongtaoās conservative mindset was similarly extreme. The upper-class had always believed in marriage between the same family status, and he was no exception. Even if Tan Jingmoās future wife wouldnāt be a successful woman in her career, at the very least she needed to come from a prominent family background and not like Bao Er who had no family background at all.
Bao Er nodded. She thought that Tan Hongtaoās words made perfect sense.
Glancing at the check, the many zeros behind it were enough to blind her eyes.

When she said this, Bao Erās face was indifferent as well without any sign of joking. This made her look unchallengeable at that moment.
When Tan Hongtao saw this, his heart sank.
To be honest, if not because Bao Erās family background was too poor that she couldnāt make a good match with his grandson, he would agree with their union. Ever since he stepped into the door, Bao Er wasnāt scared or anxious and showed a calm composure without being frightened by his charisma. This was not seen in many girls of her same age.
The only thing that Tan Hongtao admired in Bao Er was this.
But this admiration was not the reason he would accept Bao Er.
He would remove anything that would obstruct Tan Jingmoās future. Tan Jingmo was not a common person, so the woman who matched him must not be a common woman as well.
He needed to fly higher and see further, not be tied up by these feelings and romance between a man and a woman.
He initially thought that Bao Erās refusal was an embodiment of her own pride, but her statement of āconvert this check into cashā almost made the speechless Tan Hongtao vomit out blood.
āThis kind of person like you without any integrity will never make a good match with Ah Mo no matter what. It is best that you have this kind of awareness.ā Tan Hongtao said coldly.
After hearing that, Bao Erās facial expression became forlorn without too much seriousness from before. Being imposing was just an act. He knew how to do it, but she also knew how to do it. Instead of contesting their acting, why not they contest their abilities. But in terms of ability, she wouldnāt win against Tan Hongtao no matter what.
Since he was an old geezer who had been wading in the business market for decades while she was just a small girl.
Bao Er gave Tan Hongtao a sweet smile and did not mind his words at all. āOld sir, you are right, I have no integrity, so I will naturally accept this money youāre giving me today.ā
Did this show that he was remarkable by being generous and arrogant? Since the money landed into her hands on its own, then why should she refuse it? She did not need to pretend to be so noble or to act that way.
She was not an angel, so why should she be polite?
Moreover, this person who claimed to be Tan Jingmoās grandfather was not being courteous towards her as well, so why should she?
She surely did not have integrity, because if she did, why would she rely on Tan Jingmo to pay for her fatherās surgical fees?
It was getting nearer and nearer to the end of their half a year agreement. When that day truly came, she believed that it would be hard for them. How should she tell Tan Jingmo? If she didnāt tell him, then what would Tan Jingmo say to her? This was a difficult situation for both parties, so since they had a better way right now, why should she reject him?
Tan Hongtao looked at Bao Er who was grinning cheekily in front of him with a dark face. He felt even more disheartened.
He was treating this so seriously yet it looked like a fun thing in her eyes. She even showed a smiley face, was she really not putting any importance to this?
āHe Ning, convert the check into cash. The rest of you stay here and supervise her, make sure that she has left when Ah Mo comes back.ā His later statement was directed to the men dressed in black behind him.
āUnderstood, old master.ā Their answers were very synchronized.
āOh yeah, after this, for your phone, you donāt need me to tell you that you should change another number, right? I donāt wish to see you wherever Ah Mo will appear. You better do as I say, or elseā¦ā
āOr else, you will directly butcher me, right?ā Bao Er sneered, her face full of disdain.
An old man who was more than seventy years old with power and riches used such a lowly method to threaten her, was he even worthy?
But since he liked to threaten, then he better threaten her however he wanted. After she stepped out of this place today, she had never thought of having any contact with Tan Jingmo anymore, or even yearned to marry into their family.
āDonāt worry, I understand the principle of keeping our promise. Since I accepted your money, I will naturally go further away and wonāt trouble you anymore.ā Bao Er didnāt even blink her eyes as she stretched out her hand to take the small box in He Ningās hands.
Tan Hongtao was now satisfied as he looked at her.
But Bao Er didnāt notice that, or to say there was nothing worth noticing. She got up and walked into the main bedroom to take her bag, and put in some things such as her identification card before she walked out.
