BXBX NOVEL Chapter 20 - ~Xiao Long's Bad Thoughts~
"I want to marry you,"
A word that managed to make Xiao Long speechless. He didn't expect the comments to just come out of Qiao Xin's mouth. For a moment, Xiao Long looked at Qiao Xin, and then he touched Qiao Xin's forehead with the back of his hand. A truly extraordinary thing.
"Do you have a fever?" Xiao Long asked with a confused look on his face. "Are you drunk? Or are you in a trance or something? Why are you suddenly saying that? Want to marry me, are you kidding me?" Xiao Long said with a look of disbelief on his face. How could he not? He didn't expect Qiao Xin to say this. After all that Xiao Long had done to change Qiao Xin's mind and was rejected by that woman, Qiao Xin said that she wanted to marry him? This is a very crazy thing!
"Why?" Qiao Xin asked, somewhat annoyed. Her tears are flowing now. After all that she was about to sacrifice, how could Xiao Long not believe her words at all? "Do you think I'm joking? Do you think I'm playing with you right now? Or have you changed your mind now and thought that what I did was stupid? And you don't want to marry me anymore for Grandpa Han's sake? I don't understand you at all. You know if your grandfather is in critical condition, and I have promised God that if God gives Grandpa Han a chance to live, then I will do whatever Grandpa Han wants. Including our wedding. even though I really don't want to, even though I'm really fed up, and don't want this marriage. But whatever, whatever I will do to make the most beautiful memories for Grandpa Han for the rest of his life. I want to see him happy, I want to see him laugh. I… I don't want to make her cry, I don't want to live in regret for what I've done for refusing her last request."
"You don't need to say much, Miss Liu," Xiao Long again made Qiao Xin confused. How not, Xiao Long's tone sounded strange. There was no expression of joy or relief that she had agreed to marry Xiao Long. It's like, Qiao Xin has been thrusting herself out, lowering her pride to get Xiao Long to marry her. "I don't believe you…." Xiao Long said again. Qiao Xin fell silent again. "For Grandpa? For Grandpa to be happy, for Grandpa to smile and so on. Are you kidding me? I know who you are, you are a poor woman who is currently unemployed. You of course need a lot of money to make your life prosperous and rich. Being able to live happily without working, isn't that the purpose of your life, Miss Liu? Yesterday, you could have refused Grandpa's request. That's because you didn't completely reject it. You just want to attract the sympathy of everyone here and think that you are a good girl, a good girl who doesn't need money, who doesn't get dazzled by wealth. However, after you know if I start to not care about all that. You start to get scared, you're afraid to lose your source of lots of money. I, am the grandson of the rich Grandpa Han, a young businessman who owns a large company and has many branches. I'm a man that all women are crazy about. In fact, even being my slave all women will be willing to do it. You know that, I'm sure you're not a naive girl, I'm sure you're not an innocent girl. I know all the thoughts of a poor woman like you, Miss Liu. So, sorry you can say you agree with our contract marriage offer. But don't you ever say that the marriage we are going to do is for my grandfather's sake. Enough for yourself and for your satisfaction. Because I'll give you whatever you want, you'll get luxuries, you'll get monthly payments, and get amenities that you've never even experienced in your life. So, what makes you naive? You don't have to be chaste in front of me, Miss Liu. Because, I already know how the character of a poor woman like you works."
Qiao Xin's breath hitched. She didn't expect Xiao Long to think so narrowly of her. She didn't know that Xiao Long looked down on her so much. Whereas, what Qiao Xin knew, Xiao Long only hated her. To that extent, not to the point of being this hateful and even considering herself lower than trash.
Qiao Xin rubbed her face roughly, wanting her to refuse outright and retract her words earlier. However, if she remembered again, how could she place such importance on her pride that she didn't even have at all. All Qiao Xin thought of was Xiao Chuan. She couldn't possibly let that helpless Grandpa die with such misfortune. Qiao Xin couldn't even make Xiao Chuan last wish come true. Qiao Xin had already lost her father, and the regret was still there when she didn't comply with her father's last request. And now she doesn't want to repeat the same thing, like what happened to her father.
"Alright, Mr. Han. If that's what you want. You said that I agreed to this marriage because I was tempted by your wealth, right? All right, then let's emphasize it here. I'll marry you, but on a few notes. Give me some money for our wedding. Then I will pretend to be the wife who loves you forever. You are very rich, your money will never run out right? Then give me four hundred yuan for this contract marriage."
Xiao Long was silent, and then he seemed to grin. Like what he had guessed if Qiao Xin agreed to marry him just for the sake of money. No more than that.
"Don't worry, Miss Liu. I'll definitely give you more than that. And believe me, you will definitely become Mrs. Han perfectly. However, sorry, you can only enjoy the wealth. Don't ever expect to be my wife completely as long as you marry me. Remember, this marriage is only for Grandpa's life. After that, we're not husband and wife or anything. Do you understand what I said, Miss Liu?" Qiao Xian was silent. Meanwhile, Xiao Long looked at his watch. "I'll have my personal lawyer take care of our agreement. Give me some do's and don'ts, so I can include them in the rules of our marriage agreement."
