Chapter 92 I Don’t Sign
Wen Nianchu glanced at the ring on his hand, then looked up at him, blushing a little, so much so that there was a hint of disdain in her tone:
"Xie Yue, who would propose marriage in their freshman year? And... it's so hasty."
"It has to be early."
Xie Yue's voice was so gentle that it almost dripped with water. He carefully observed her expression while slowly putting the ring on her ring finger. "I'm afraid if it's any later, you'll be discovered by others. My Nian Nian is so outstanding and so good. I'm afraid of losing you."
Xie Yue liked Wen Nianchu, and this was something he had never doubted.
What's shameful about liking someone who is already brilliant?
People's hearts naturally yearn for beauty, and he is just following this most instinctive heartbeat.
The moment the ring was firmly put on, Xie Yue clearly felt a violent and rapid vibration coming from the watch on his wrist.
That was a synchronized response from Wen Nianchu's heart rate.
He raised his wrist and looked up at her, smiling triumphantly and gently:
"Look, your heartbeat promised me."
Wen Nianchu snorted, pinched his face and said dissatisfiedly:
"Xie, do you have so little confidence in yourself?"
"It's not that I don't have confidence," he corrected softly, gently rubbing his palm to remove her hand that was pinching his face, "It's that I know too well how good you are. So good that every day I'm more afraid of losing you than the day before."
She paused, with a hint of pride in her tone:
"Okay."
"Then you still have to behave well. After all, I can regret it at any time."
"Okay," he replied, each word clear and steady. "I'll spend my whole life showing you."
:D
She had thought that this comfortable life would last forever.
Until her twentieth birthday.
On her birthday, her father Wen Hu, who usually didn't care much about her, came to the school to pick her up in person. He said he would take her out for a good meal and celebrate her birthday alone.
Wen Nianchu had already prepared himself mentally.
She sent a message to Xie Yue, asking him to wait for her downstairs in the hotel, and also sent him the room number, so that Xie Yue could rescue her in time in case Wen Hu made any other moves.
Wen Nianchu in this time and space has a congenital heart disease that was forcibly installed by the system, and she is afraid that something might go wrong later.
During the meal, her father acted particularly affectionate, constantly reminiscing about how adorable she was as a child and saying that her mother in heaven would be delighted to see how successful she is now. Wen Nianchu just listened quietly, wondering when he would finally sell the medicine he had in his gourd.
Sure enough, halfway through the meal, Wen Hu took out a document from his briefcase and pushed it in front of her.
"Nianchu, look, you're twenty years old now. You've truly grown up. Dad's getting old too, so the Wen family will eventually be handed over to you." His tone was particularly gentle. "This is a share transfer agreement. Dad is transferring some of the company's shares to you in advance. It's also a birthday gift for you, allowing you to familiarize yourself with the company's business in advance."
Wen Nianchu picked up the agreement and glanced at it quickly.
The content was beautifully written, stating that some shares would be donated free of charge, but there were several complicated additional clauses attached below, and the densely packed small print made people dizzy.
She carefully read the core content and found that once she signed, all the assets and shares in her name, including those left to her by her mother, would be temporarily transferred to the trustee institution designated by Wen Hu under certain conditions.
It looks like the other party gave it to her, but actually it was she who gave it to the other party.
This was not a gift at all. It was obvious that he was trying to use some small sweeteners to get something truly valuable out of her hands.
Wen Nianchu's heart sank, but he didn't show it on his face.
She had already given Wen Hu a chance.
So, Wen Nianchu put down the agreement, picked up a tissue and wiped her mouth, then looked at her father with a very calm tone:
"Dad, thank you for your kindness. But this gift is too valuable. I can't accept it."
The smile on Wen Hu's face froze for a moment. He obviously didn't expect his daughter to refuse, so he quickly said:
"Nianchu, are you being distant with Dad? This is all for your own good. With these shares, you'll have a say in the company and be able to take over smoothly in the future..."
"I'm doing fine now," Wen Nianchu interrupted him, her tone still calm. "What my mother left me is enough for me to spend. You should keep the shares of Wen's Group for now. I just want to finish my studies in peace and don't want to get involved in the company's affairs for the time being."
Wen Hu's face gradually darkened, and the disguised kindness disappeared without a trace.
He lowered his voice:
"Nianchu, don't be naive. Daddy is paving the way for you. You're a girl, and you're holding so much money and shares. How many people are watching you? Letting Daddy manage it for you is the best choice."
"Sign it quickly."
Seeing that he finally revealed his true face, Wen Nianchu felt relieved.
She stood up and picked up her bag.
"I told you I won't sign." Her voice was soft but remarkably firm. "I can take care of my things myself. Don't worry about it."
"Wen Nianchu!"
Wen Hu also stood up suddenly, his face turning blue with anger. "Have you grown so independent that you don't even listen to me? You must sign for me today."
"I received the birthday present, thank you, Dad. But I don't think there's any need to eat this meal."
After Wen Nianchu finished speaking, she turned and left, not caring at all that her father was shouting her name angrily behind her.
When she reached the door, she paused.
Wen Hu really sent someone to wait for her.
A group of bodyguards swarmed over the door.
"Dad, are you going to force me to sign the contract?"
Wen Nianchu smiled helplessly.
Her family affection is so ridiculous.
The only relative she had in this world with whom she had a pure blood relationship could turn against her just because of a contract share.
"You must sign today."
Wen Hu signaled the bodyguard to take her directly to the contract on the table.
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."
Wen Nianchu clapped his hands lightly.
The next second, Xie Yue appeared at the door of the box.
He walked straight in, neatly separated the bodyguards, and brought Wen Nianchu to his side.
"What are you doing?"
Wen Hu's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes glanced back and forth between the two of them.
"I haven't had time to introduce him yet, Dad," Wen Nianchu smiled slightly, looking very happy, "This is the person I will marry in the future."
She paused and added, "By the way, he's an orphan."
Wen Hu was so angry that he could hardly speak and his whole face turned red.
"They're rebelling... they're really rebelling! Stop them both! Just two people, how can they possibly cause such a rebellion?"
Wen Nianchu was not at all flustered, but smiled slightly:
"Dad, you don't want me to make a big deal out of this and send you to the police, right?"
Her eyes swept over the bodyguards around her who were ready to make a move:
"Is your current behavior called rioting?"
Xie Yue stood beside her and spoke calmly, his voice not loud enough for everyone to hear:
"And we are acting in self-defense."
