Chapter 9 Free House and Card

Gu Yunchi was stunned and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I just wanted to be humorous, but I didn't expect you to misunderstand."

Lan Yu frowned, "I think you have misunderstood the word humor. Okay, I don't want to waste your time. I will refuse your grandmother. We probably won't have a chance to meet again in the future. That's it. I'm leaving first."

"Wait a minute," Gu Yunchi called out to Lan Yu, "Why don't you want to marry me?"

Lan Yu stopped and turned to look at Gu Yunchi: "Then why do you want to marry me? Do you understand me?"

Gu Yunchi: "What I just said is true. My family has been forcing me to get married. Not only my grandmother, but my grandma also always forces me to go on blind dates. They will only stop if I get married."

"I chose you because I think you're nice. Let me put it this way, you're the only woman I've ever met who doesn't disgust me. Of course, I really don't understand you."

"But I think we can get to know each other slowly after we get married."

Lan Yu hesitated. She wanted to use marriage to completely dispel her sister Lan Yue's idea of surrogacy. If she chose someone she didn't know at all, she would definitely reject him.

It’s better to choose the man in front of you.

After all, the two of them had physical contact, and the key point was that she didn't mind being intimate with him.

But she didn't think Gu Yunchi really wanted to spend his whole life with her, nor did she expect Gu Yunchi to fall in love with her, let alone hope to become a wealthy lady.

"Are you usually very busy? Do you have to fly around the world?" Lan Yu suddenly changed the subject.

Gu Yunchi was stunned for a moment and replied truthfully: "Yes, I can only rest three days a month at present, and the rest of the time I have to fly, sometimes on domestic routes, sometimes on international routes."

With only three days of rest a month, if the two were married, they probably wouldn't see each other often. This satisfied Lan Yu. She sat down again and asked, "Does that mean you're rarely at home?"

Gu Yunchi: "...That's what I mean. Do you mind?"

Lan Yu: "I don't mind, this is the best."

Gu Yunchi: “…”

Lan Yu: "Do you usually live in a hotel? If we get married, it would be better for us to have our own home."

Gu Yunchi: "I have a house near the hospital. We can live there. But the house may be a little small. It's only 120 square meters, with three bedrooms and two living rooms. You can move in directly with your luggage."

120 square meters is still too small? Lan Yu secretly marveled at it. It turned out that poverty had limited her vision.

Seeing Lan Yu frowning in thought, Gu Yunchi continued, "Well, to show my sincerity, I can give you this house as a wedding gift and change the title to your name."

Lan Yu: "What if we get divorced in the future? Will you take it back?"

Gu Yunchi: ...This woman is really something, she's thinking about divorce before even getting married.

Lan Yu: "If you give it to me, it will be mine. If we get divorced, you can't take it back. If you want it back, then don't give it to me, because I think we will get divorced sooner or later."

Gu Yunchi: "...Okay, if we get divorced one day, I promise not to take back the things I gave you. We can write an agreement, have both parties sign it, and have my lawyer witness it for us."

Lan Yu: “Sure.”

Gu Yunchi: "...Otherwise, if you want anything, just ask, such as betrothal gifts and wedding..."

Lan Yu: "Stop, I said, we will get divorced sooner or later, so let's forget about the betrothal gifts and wedding, just get the certificate. Besides, I want to do this in front of my family and friends."

"Don't reveal your identity as the eldest grandson of the Gu Group. You are just an ordinary captain."

"Why?" Gu Yunchi was surprised. Was his identity as the eldest grandson of the Gu family shameful?

Lan Yu: "I'm doing this to protect you. Think about it, I'm surrounded by ordinary people like me. If they knew you were rich, they would all run to curry favor with you and bother you every day."

"By then, someone will ask you to borrow money or treat them to a meal every few days."

Gu Yunchi felt that what Lan Yu said made sense. "So, are you going to keep this a secret from your parents too?"

Lan Yu: "Of course you do, especially to them. Let me tell you, my parents are both snobs. In front of them, you have to cry poor... Just say that you are burdened with mortgage and debts in order to buy a house."

"How much did you pay for that house?"

Gu Yunchi: "...I didn't buy that. It's a property developed by my family."

Lan Yu's heart was struck again: "..."

Gu Yunchi: "If based on the current market price, it should be around 15 million."

Lan Yu opened his round black eyes wide, "Do you know how much I earn a month? Only 6,000. Even if I work till I die, I still can't afford that house. Are you sure you want to give it to me?"

Gu Yunchi was surprised, "Does our family pay you so little? Then I will go back and find a chance to talk to my second uncle and ask him to give you a raise... No, that will make it difficult for you to do your job, and you will be isolated by your colleagues."

Lan Yu: "Yes, don't let your second uncle take care of me. Didn't I say that just now? Don't let my colleagues know that you are the eldest grandson of the Gu family. Otherwise, if we get divorced in the future, I will become an abandoned woman of a wealthy family."

Gu Yunchi: "... Let's make a deal, can you please not always mention the word divorce?"

Lan Yu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, just don't reveal your true identity."

Gu Yunchi thought for a moment, took out his wallet from his pocket, pulled out a black gold card and placed it in front of Lan Yu, "This card has no limit. I'll give it to you for your future household use. You can use it to buy whatever you want."

Lan Yu stared at the card for a few seconds, then raised her eyelids and stared at Gu Yunchi, saying, "Can you pinch me? Am I dreaming? Why did you chase me to marry you and even give me a house and a card?"

Gu Yunchi chuckled and reached out to pinch Lan Yu's pink nose. "You're not dreaming. So, Doctor Lan, you agree to marry me. When are we going to get the marriage certificate?"

Lan Yu's heart was pounding because of Gu Yunchi's intimate actions just now. "Do you have time tomorrow morning? I have to work the afternoon shift tomorrow, so I can be at the hospital at 11 o'clock. If you have time, we can go to get the certificate in the morning."

Gu Yunchi: "Okay, where do you live? I'll pick you up."

Lan Yu: "Hospital dormitory, I'll send you the location when I get back."

Gu Yunchi: "Okay, do you have any other questions? Just ask, I will answer you truthfully."

Lan Yu: "Is your family large?"

Gu Yunchi: "...If you count my uncles and aunts, as well as my grandparents, there are indeed a lot. By the way, my parents divorced when I was very young because my dad cheated on me."

"So the one living with my dad now is my stepmother. My biological mother lives with her boyfriend."

Lan Yu: "So bloody? Uh... I'm sorry, I shouldn't say that."

Gu Yunchi: "It doesn't matter. It's really bloody. You'll know when you see them in the future. It's just a good opportunity to give you a heads-up. The interpersonal relationships in our family are very complicated, but you don't have to care about them or try to please them."

"I will try my best to prevent you from coming into contact with them, and I will protect you."

Lan Yu: "What you said makes it sound like your family is scary. Can I cancel the engagement? I won't get married."
