Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 66 The Person with an Unrequited Love Must Be Him

Right, it must be because she was drunk. She was rambling. In her previous life, during a drunken night, Wei Chen had given her warmth. She was so desperate for warmth and affection that, once intoxicated, she couldn't help but call out that name.

It's over. She's completely screwed!

"If Huo Qinglin finds out that the man you're secretly in love with is Leng Weichen, tell me... do you think he'd let this go?" Yan Ting's expression was grim, his voice frosty to the extreme.

Banxia froze again, feeling that things had spiraled into utter chaos.

"If you don't go around spreading nonsense, he won't find out," Banxia thought. Fighting with someone like Yan Ting would only end with her suffering the consequences.

He had firmly decided that Leng Weichen was her secret crush. So, no matter how she explained, even if she wore out her tongue making excuses, he'd never believe her.

Fine. She just wouldn't bother arguing anymore!

But his next words stirred up a storm in her heart. She hadn't considered the consequences of silently agreeing to his narrative.

"Tell me, why would I keep this secret for you?" Yan Ting sneered coldly.

Banxia's heart sank like a heavy stone crashing down, robbing her of breath.

"Mr. Huo, don't we still have a deal? Consider this one of the terms..."

"I've already promised not to touch your pear garden, yet you've contributed how much to me exactly? Always wanting me to compromise—time and time again?" The man instantly transformed into a cold, ruthless devil, his rising tone amplifying the danger.

Banxia's breath hitched sharply. She suddenly realized she wasn't a match for this man at all. He was a business emperor for a reason; his methods, his mind—how could she possibly manipulate him?

"Then what do you want?" Banxia didn't want her own troubles to implicate an innocent person.

Not to mention how Wei Chen had helped her and given her warm memories in her previous life—she couldn't bring herself to commit such a self-serving, morally despicable act, even without any connection between them.

The die had been cast. Now came the time to endure the consequences.

"Make it appear that the person you're secretly in love with is me. Your crisis will be over, and your 'male god' will remain safe." Yan Ting's voice was lazy, speaking as though it was all casual. Yet his deep-set eyes burned intensely as they locked onto her.

Banxia froze in place, her beautiful eyes staring blankly at Yan Ting for a long time. After weighing the pros and cons, she nodded, "Alright then. As long as you don't spread lies, and don't mention Leng Weichen's name, I'll make you my secret crush."

When Yan Ting heard her reply, his face darkened even further. At the end of the day, she was protecting Leng Weichen. Damn it. He wished he could just reach out and strangle her slender little neck, sealing those lips of hers shut—no longer wanting to hear any other name escape them.

Banxia's arm was released. Feeling a sting of pain, she rubbed it lightly—this man had been so vicious earlier. It was excessive.

"Wait..."

Banxia's short-circuited brain forced her to retrieve a shred of rationality. Her pitch-black eyes fixated on the man tightly. "If Huo Qinglin finds out that the person I'm secretly in love with is you, will he just kill me outright?"

"He wouldn't dare!" Yan Ting's sharp brows lifted intensely. "Doesn't he realize whose woman you are now?"

"I'm... yours?" Banxia's face turned pale inch by inch. Since when had she become 'his'?

Yan Ting's thin, sensual lips curled upward. His tall, wild physique leaned down slightly. "I've already slept with you twice, and you dare not take responsibility? You'll face the consequences."

"What?" Banxia was utterly speechless. Could this man be any more shameless?
