Yu Nianbai, sitting in the car, watched the speeding scenery outside the window until he could no longer see Wang Juan and the other person in the rearview mirror.

She stopped the car: "Stop, I'll get off here."

Jiang Minke, who was sitting next to Yu Nianbai, asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Nianbai? Are you feeling unwell? Or are you carsick?"

Jiang Minke asked her considerately, and Yu Nianbai shook her head: "Madam, now that they have left, it is time for me to leave too."

Yu Nianbai handed the 1,500 yuan to Jiang Minke and said, "Thank you for your help today. I'm fine now."

Jiang Minke looked at the heavy banknotes in her hand and was shocked: "You, you don't think we are acting, do you?"

As she spoke, Jiang Minke raised her eyes and glared at Jiang Huaizhi who was driving in the driver's seat.

"Why don't you explain yourself clearly!"

The car did not stop because of Yu Nianbai's call to stop. Jiang Huaizhi glanced at Yu Nianbai through the rearview mirror with a faint expression.

"I'm serious about getting married. I'm not lying to your parents, nor am I kidding you."

This time it was Yu Nianbai's turn to be extremely surprised. She looked up suddenly and met Jiang Huaizhi's deep eyes in the mirror.

Jiang Minke breathed a sigh of relief and forced the money in her hand back into Yu Nianbai's hand.

"Hey, I've already discussed it with your parents, how could it be fake? Hurry up and collect the betrothal money."

"But..." Yu Nianbai wanted to say something else.

The conversation was interrupted again by Jiang Yuanzhao who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Jiang Yuanzhao asked Jiang Huaizhi: "Do you need me to apply for family housing in the compound for you?"

Jiang Huaizhi said, "No need, I have rented a house outside, we can just live there."

Jiang Minke suddenly thought of something: "Didn't your team allocate you a house? I'll ask a few people to help renovate it and use it as a wedding room."

"Sister, we have our own plans for this matter, so you don't have to worry about it."

Jiang Minke glared at him angrily: "What do you know? You have never been married, how can you have experience? I will take care of the decoration of the house. When the time comes, tell me what style you like and I will find someone to decorate it."

Yu Nianbai didn't say anything else. She knew that it was useless for her to say anything now. The only person who understood was Jiang Huaizhi. He must know what was going on.

Jiang Huaizhi parked the car at the market. After they got out of the car, Jiang Minke was still worried: "Take us to see the environment of the rental house."

Jiang Huaizhi did rent a house here, and he didn't refuse. He took Jiang Minke and the others to his rented house.

It is a house with a small yard.

The furniture inside is quite complete.

There is a main hall, a bedroom and a study. The house next to the yard is the kitchen and a toilet.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs.

Jiang Minke nodded with satisfaction: "This place is not bad, it's perfect for you two to live in."

As she spoke, she turned around and pulled Yu Nianbai into the bedroom.

Let her sit on the bed: "Nianbai, just rest here. Let Huaizhi make whatever you want to eat. Don't be afraid of him. If he dares to bully you, just tell me and I will help you teach him a lesson!"

Yu Nianbai nodded and smiled at Jiang Minke: "Thank you, Madam Chief."

"You still call me the Chief's wife?" Jiang Minke reminded.

Yu Nianbai pursed his lips and changed his words: "Sister."

"Hey! That's right!" Jiang Minke showed a happy smile on her face.

Jiang Minke and Jiang Yuanzhao did not stay long. After looking at the environment and finding it acceptable, they left.

Suddenly, Yu Nianbai and Jiang Huaizhi were the only ones left in the room.

When Jiang Huaizhi came in from outside, he had a document in his hand and handed it to Yu Nianbai.

"Take a look at it, and sign it if you think it's okay."

Yu Nianbai glanced at Jiang Huai, and under the man's cold gaze, she reached out and took the materials.

What I saw when I opened it was an agreement.

"What is this?" Yu Nianbai frowned.

"This is the agreement I drafted. I don't think you want to be caught by your parents and marry a widower, right? Coincidentally, I am also tired of being urged to get married. We agree to get married. After marriage, neither party has the right to interfere in each other's life. If you think it's okay, you can sign it. The agreement will take effect from today until one year from today. I will file a divorce report to my superiors. The responsibility for the divorce is mine, and I will give you corresponding compensation after the divorce."

After listening to Jiang Huaizhi's explanation, Yu Nianbai completely understood.

"So, you found a ready-made candidate like me in order to get rid of the forced marriage?"

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of mockery appeared at the corners of his eyes: "A ready-made candidate? Yu Nianbai, you should be glad that the candidate is you, otherwise you would have been taken to a widower's house by your parents now."

Hearing the sarcasm in Jiang Huai's words, Yu Nianbai's face gradually turned pale.

Jiang Huaizhi tells the truth, a cruel truth.

Her biological parents sold her to a widower for money.

Yu Nianbai closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, the despair in his eyes faded away.

"Do you think the only option for me is to marry you?" Yu Nianbai raised a smile and looked at Jiang Huaizhi indifferently.

Jiang Huaizhi frowned slightly, realizing something was wrong, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Yu Nianbai stretched out his hand and revealed the wound on his wrist. It was a light pink scar, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

Jiang Huaizhi stared at her wrist and finally saw the mark.

His face was not very good: "Yu Nianbai, what do you want to say?"

Yu Nianbai looked at the scar on his wrist, with a faint smile on his face.

She said: "This is the wound I got when I was ten years old. My parents beat and scolded me. I was so desperate that I wanted to die."

"Unfortunately, I didn't die that time. For a ten-year-old like me, the pain of the wound was greater than the beatings and scoldings from my parents. I cried and shouted for help, and was finally taken to the clinic by the villagers. When my parents found out, they came to the clinic and beat and scolded me again. They scolded me for being incompetent and told me not to let anyone know if I wanted to die. As a result, now that I didn't die, they have to pay for the medical expenses."

"They left cursing and refusing to pay even a penny for the medical expenses. Finally, the staff at the clinic couldn't stand it anymore and told me that I wasn't the one who should die and that I still had a wonderful life. She told me to study hard and that as long as I left here, I could get rid of everything here."

"I originally thought that by joining the art troupe, I could get rid of all the unbearable things that happened in the past." Having said this, Yu Nianbai paused.

She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Huaizhi with burning eyes: "It was you who dragged me into the abyss. Now don't pretend to be a good person here."

Jiang Huaizhi looked at her solemnly, with flashes of cold light in his dark eyes.

"If my death can make you feel better, I can die right in front of you right now."
