Gu Xiaoer gasped, "What kind of couple interview is this? Don't they know human trafficking is illegal?"
But this... it's just too tempting to commit a crime.
What does a billion in cash represent? Her lifelong dream of being as wealthy as a salted duck egg could be realized. No worries, rich and overflowing!
With a flick of her hand, she shook off the man's hand, blinked her starry eyes, and nodded vigorously, "Willing, very willing. Where's the buyer?"
Han Luoli immediately turned dark-faced, "Damn it, just two days ago you agreed to redeem me, and today you've turned around and sold me? What happened to integrity?"
On the contrary, the interviewer felt awkward, encountering a girl who seriously looked for a buyer for the first time, "Miss, this... this is just a survey question..."
"Ah, it's not for real..." She wore such an obviously disappointed expression.
It was never real to begin with, okay? The interviewer looked at Han Luoli and nervously broke into a sweat. With such a handsome boyfriend, she still thought about selling him off. Miss, you're so bold. Don't you see that this gentleman's face is already ashen?
The interview team prepared to quietly withdraw. Creating discord between the young couple wasn't their intention...
"Hey, are you not going to interview him?" Gu Xiaoer held back the interviewer, it was supposed to be a couple's interview, after all, and she wanted to hear what Han Luoli had to say.
"Yeah, you're not going to interview me?" Han Luoli, who had been silent until now, spoke up. He was addressing the interviewer, but his gaze remained fixed on Gu Xiaoer, his deep eyes brewing with emotion.
The interviewer very reluctantly, awkwardly, and painfully picked up the microphone and began to ask Han Luoli questions.
"May I ask..."
"Not selling!" Han Luoli answered before the interviewer could even ask the question.
The interviewer's interest was slightly piqued, as they had expected the man to agree offhandedly to get back at his girlfriend. But he was surprisingly firm. Who says handsome men can't be sincere? Here's one right in front of us.
However, as sincere as the love may be, not everyone can remain steadfast when the stakes are raised high enough. They had interviewed over a hundred couples, and many responses were similar.
"Then sir, what if someone offers a billion for your girlfriend?" A billion's a threshold, an almost universally tempting figure.
"Not selling."
"What about ten billion?"
"Not selling."
The small interview on the pedestrian street slowly gathered a crowd, especially when Han Luoli stood unwavering even against ten billion, lighting up everyone present.
"And what about a hundred billion?" For the sake of the show, the interviewer went big with the bet.
Gu Xiaoer, surrounded by the crowd, felt her hand unknowingly captured again in the man's large palm. Turning to the side, hiding her face, she regretted accepting the interview, knowing it would attract so many viewers.
"A hundred billion..." Everyone sighed along, realizing it was just an interview but still filled with a fascination towards exploring the dark corners of the human heart. They were all eager to know just where this man's bottom line lay.
In a society rife with material desire, many no longer conceal their pursuit of wealth.
A hundred billion should be enough to sway him...
Han Luoli glanced at Gu Xiaoer, his lips curving into a smile, "Not selling."
"Hiss—" The onlookers gasped, with some even secretly cheering.
"What if someone offered half of their kingdom for your girlfriend?" the interviewer asked excitedly, although no one would be silly enough to trade such wealth for a person.
This time, even Gu Xiaoer couldn't resist looking up at him, she too was curious about what Han Luoli's answer would be.
