nAs soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar.

n

n“I just said that the Young Miss of the Jiang family has become more powerful, but now it seems that she’s still a fool… Does she want to marry Ninth Master? Is there something wrong with her brain?”

n

n“How strange. In the entire Sea City, there’s actually a woman who dares to dream about Ninth Master?!”

n

nEveryone knew that the Ninth Master of the Fu family, the youngest son of Old Master Fu, had almost all the advantages of the Fu family.

n

nHe was handsome, decisive, wise, and had an iron fist…

n

nHowever, at the same time, his legs were disabled, and the doctor said that he could only rely on a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

n

nPerhaps it was because of his disability, but rumors said that Ninth Master’s personality was also very sinister and eccentric. It was said that he often abused people around him.

n

nThere were also rumors that Ninth Master did not get close to women because he was not good at that aspect..

n

nIn short, Fu Jiuxiao was a distant dream for the women of Sea City. Compared to him, Fu Yunze was more approachable.

n

nAlthough Fu Yunze was not as handsome as Ninth Master, there was nothing wrong with him, was there?

n

nIn conclusion, everyone thought that Jiang Li was crazy for wanting to marry Fu Jiuxiao.

n

nEven Old Master Fu, who had just promised with a pat on his chest, started to hesitate.

n

nHe really could not control the thoughts of his youngest son.

n

n“Little Li.”

n

nOld Master Fu deliberated and said, “We need to ask Jiuxiao for his opinion on this matter.”

n

nJiang Man, who was at the side, snorted softly and muttered.

n

n“Can’t you just say it directly?”

n

nJiang Man had just been publicly rejected to marry into the Fu family and was filled with resentment. She could not help but ridicule, “Will Ninth Master even take a fancy to her?”

n

nAlthough these words were not pleasant to hear, everyone present deeply agreed.

n

nOld Master Fu looked at Jiang Man indifferently, and in his heart, he disliked this girl even more.

n

nHe was also a little embarrassed, but he still smiled and comforted Jiang Li.

n

n“Little Li, don’t be sad. Grandpa will help you ask…”

n

n“No.”

n

nJiang Li shook her head.

n

nOld Master Fu’s heart sank.

n

nHowever, Jiang Li’s smile was like a flower, and she walked towards Fu Jiuxiao with light steps. “I’ll ask him myself.”

n

nAs she got closer and closer to Fu Jiuxiao, the onlookers could not help but hold their breath.

n

nOh, God!

n

nThis Miss Jiang was really bold!

n

nDid she not see that there was a burly bodyguard standing behind Ninth Master? As long as a stranger came within one meter of Grandpa Jiu, they would be thrown out!

n

nEveryone was waiting to see Jiang Li make a fool of herself.

n

nThree meters, two meters, one meter…

n

nEveryone widened their eyes in surprise.

n

nJiang Li had already stepped into Ninth Master’s security circle, but the bodyguard did not move at all as if he had not received any orders!

n

nShe was not thrown out!

n

nCould it be that the rumors about Ninth Master were all fake?

n

nJiang Li did not know how much of an impact her actions had caused in the eyes of others.

n

nShe propped herself up on her knees and bent down, her gaze level with Fu Jiuxiao’s.

n

nFu Jiuxiao looked at her expressionlessly.

n

nHis eyes were cold, so he looked at everyone with an indescribable coldness. It sent chills down people’s spines, and they did not dare to look him in the eye.

n

nHowever, Jiang Li was not afraid.

n

nShe smiled and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Ninth Master, I have a business deal here. Do you want to do it?”

n

nFu Jiuxiao’s eyes moved slightly. “Hmm?”

n

n“Marry me for a year.”

n

nJiang Li met his deep eyes and said her deal word by word. “I will help you find the Beta-type Medicine.”

n

nBeta-type Medicine was a medicine that could cure Fu Jiuxiao’s legs. The Fu family had been searching for it with a lot of money over the years.

n

nThis happened to be the direction of her medical team’s research.

n

nThe reason why she proposed this deal was actually to return a favor to Fu Jiuxiao. If he was not willing, she would not mind. At most, it would be a little more troublesome this year.

n

nOne year was enough for her to reorganize her former power.

n

nFu Jiuxiao looked at her steadily.

n

nAfter a long time, just when Jiang Li was getting impatient, he curled his lips slightly. “Okay.”

n
