Chapter 439 - 439 439 Some Things Should Be Discussed in Bed

439: Chapter 439: Some Things Should Be Discussed in Bed 439: Chapter 439: Some Things Should Be Discussed in Bed Night, at the Purple Garden Pavilion, in the living room, Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan sat opposite each other.

Mu Shanshan, with her bright eyes and pearly teeth and her skin smooth as coagulated fat, sat there cool and aloof as if she were a Moon Palace Fairy, devoid of much emotional expression.

Mu Shanshan’s coldness and Lin Fei’s silence seemed to echo each other, adding a touch of solitude to the already serene and splendid living room.

Both appeared to maintain a relative silence, but in reality, Mu Shanshan, cold without much emotional display, was undoubtedly more pleasing to the eye than Lin Fei, who was buried in smoking.

The ostensibly silent atmosphere between them was actually a silent contest.

Whoever lost composure first would lose.

Though it was a contest, it was really a negotiation.

Mu Shanshan, the iceberg president, had the relative initiative, but the final decision lay in Lin Fei’s hands.

After a long while, Lin Fei, who had been smoking, finally made a decision.

Putting out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, Lin Fei took a deep breath and looked seriously at Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife, and solemnly said, “As for the bride price, I will give you as much as you want, ensuring your satisfaction!

If you like, I could buy you another fifteen, even one hundred fifty helicopters.

However, those fifteen helicopters are not mine alone to give!”

This was the decision Lin Fei had made after much contemplation.

As a husband to Mu Shanshan, he had to offer a bride price, no matter what.

It was his duty as the husband to an iceberg president and the price he ought to pay.

Although Mu Shanshan was Mu Hong’s only daughter and Lin Fei, with deceased parents, had no other direct relatives, the bride price, in the end, would likely return to Lin Fei’s hands.

But rules must not be broken!

Since Mu Shanshan, the iceberg president, was to marry him, Lin Fei would never let her suffer any indignity in terms of wedding customs.

It was not about status; it was something Lin Fei had to do as a man!

If he couldn’t even satisfy Mu Shanshan with a bride price, then how could he talk about providing a woman complete happiness?

He could afford and was willing to give fifteen helicopters as a bride price,

but not those that belonged by right to the Manzhou Base of Hell’s Judgement Organization.

Public duties and personal affairs should be kept separate.

Although Lin Fei had founded the Hell’s Judgement Organization himself and could freely use all resources and power of its various branches,

he had his own principles!

This time, in saving the drowning passengers, the Manzhou Base of Hell’s Judgement Organization had already paid a significant price.

The fifteen helicopters housed at Rose Manor, although Manzhou and Vulture had stated that Lin Fei was responsible for their disposition,

Lin Fei could indeed have agreed to use those fifteen helicopters as a bride price for Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife.

Afterwards, no one in the Judgement Organization would likely gossip.

But Lin Fei couldn’t overcome his own moral reservations!

He would provide a bride price, but if it were those fifteen helicopters from the Manzhou Base of the Hell’s Judgement Organization, he would feel somewhat uncomfortable.

In his heart, he already regarded Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife, as a cherished lifetime partner.

In terms of the bride price and even the future wedding, Lin Fei didn’t want to leave any flaws or regrets!

Thus, he refused to use those fifteen helicopters, which originally belonged to the Manzhou Base of Hell’s Judgement Organization, as a bride price for Mu Shanshan, his CEO wife.

His decision wasn’t stingy.

Rather, it was a cautious decision made out of a sense of responsibility for their marriage!

Having been married for over half a year and cohabitated for a considerable time, Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, could somewhat sense the implications and thoughts of Lin Fei, her nominal husband.

Consequently, although Mu Shanshan was rejected by Lin Fei, she inexplicably felt a rare hint of excitement stir within her, making her delicate lips curl into an enticing upward arc.

Originally, when the sisters Moli had told her about Xue Mei’s intention to help her acquire fifteen helicopters, Mu Shanshan had been extremely shocked and hesitant.

After all, in her eyes, Lin Fei, her nominal husband, was already laden with various negative labels.

Though Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, had once speculated wildly about Lin Fei’s past due to his extraordinary skills.

But, before speaking with the Moli sisters, Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, clearly couldn’t connect the economically sanctioned Lin Fei with the fifteen helicopters.

Compared to the unusual aspects of Lin Fei, her nominal husband, Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, was even more uncertain about whether Lin Fei would gift the fifteen helicopters as a dowry to her.

After all, fifteen helicopters indeed represented a considerable value.

And now, although Lin Fei, her nominal husband, had refused to give the fifteen helicopters as a dowry, the affection revealed in his words, willing to spend on preparing fifteen or even one hundred and fifty helicopters for her.

This indeed made Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, quite pleased.

Women are born somewhat sentimental, and Mu Shanshan, naturally cool and exceptional as a CEO, was no exception.

Sometimes, a woman in love might like to use material things to gauge her worth in a man’s heart.

Just like Mu Shanshan at this moment, realizing her worth to Lin Fei exceeded that of the fifteen helicopters, suddenly felt a small thrill.

However, thrilled as she might be, and touched as she might feel, the things Mu, the CEO, coveted were not for Lin Fei, her nominal husband, to withhold!

As a wife, she had the right and duty to manage properties on behalf of Lin Fei, her nominal husband!

Before, ignorance was bliss, but now that she was aware, Lin Fei temporarily held fifteen helicopters.

If she could not get them from Lin Fei, her nominal husband, wouldn’t she be utterly unqualified as a wife?!

“I plan to start a helicopter leasing company, and those fifteen helicopters are just lying idle.

If you agree to give them to me, I can assure you I’ll break even within a year.”

Seemingly negotiating with Lin Fei, in reality, Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, had already made up her mind.

If Lin Fei dared to refuse her again, she might have to call her father and complain about Lin Fei!

After Mu Shanshan, the CEO wife, finished speaking, sensing the implied decisiveness and threat in her words, Lin Fei, after considering briefly, knowingly nodded in agreement.

As Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, had said, since the fifteen helicopters were idle anyway, it was better to let Mu Shanshan, the business goddess, operate them and make some money.

“This matter is settled then.

I hope you remember your previous promises to me.

In the future, do not disappear without reason!”

“Absolutely.”

“There’s something else I hope you’ll be honest with me about.”

“What is it?!”

“Exactly how much are you still hiding from me?!”

“Do you really want to know?!”

“You can choose not to tell.”

“I don’t mind telling you, but let’s talk in bed.”

With that, Lin Fei stood up.

As Mu Shanshan, the icy CEO, watched with a slightly surprised look, Lin Fei boldly scooped her up by the waist and turned to head upstairs…
