Chapter 134: Big Gamble

"Me?" Su Mi pointed at himself, pondering the meaning of his words.

Xiao Xuanjin looked at her confused eyes at the moment, as if she really didn't understand. He thought she was just pretending, "Why? You don't want to? It seems that the compensation you mentioned is just talk."

With great difficulty, he was willing to believe her for once, and Su Mi didn't want him to feel that she was deceiving him again.

Compensation to her is really not just talk.

I figured out what he meant, "So... you still insist on marrying me?"

"What else? Wasn't my expression obvious enough?"

Su Mi lowered her head and clenched her fingers. The box was quiet and Xiao Xuanjin did not disturb her, as if giving her time to think.

After a while, she seemed to have made up her mind, "Okay, I promise you."

Xiao Xuanjin glanced at her with an indifferent expression, "So... the wedding date..."

"I have one condition."

It's true that Su Mi wants to make amends as much as she can, and it's also true that she wants to free herself from the guilt, but she doesn't want to spend the rest of her life like this.

"You are not sincere. You still want to negotiate terms with me at this critical juncture." Xiao Xuanjin's tone was already a little impatient.

Even though she knew he would say this, Su Mi still wanted to make it clear. She didn't want the two of them to be entangled in misery for the rest of their lives.

"Three years...three years. You can ask me to do anything during these three years, as long as it does not violate the law or morality. But after three years, this marriage must be dissolved."

Su Mi thought, they had talked for almost three months, and now she was paying him back for three years, hoping that he would no longer hate her and that the past things should be over.

What happened back then had troubled her for too long. None of it was her intention, but the damage had been done, especially since Xiao Xuanjin almost lost his life. She knew that she owed him after all.

The system once said that she could not tell anyone about its existence, so she couldn't tell anyone about the mission.

Moreover, Xiao Xuanjin now is not willing to believe her at all.

Therefore, now, she can only make up for it as best she can.

Hearing her three-year deadline, Xiao Xuanjin frowned and looked at her with a cold and deep gaze, "Are you sure you want to shorten the wedding date to three years?"

Su Mi vaguely guessed what he meant. Originally, he might have planned to slowly target her after marriage. If she shortened the time, he would definitely not have that much patience and would only become more aggressive.

Even so, Su Mi insisted.

If asked to choose between long-term pain or short-term pain, she would definitely choose short-term pain.

As for Xiao Xuanjin, he was obviously the opposite of her.

"I'm sure we'll draft a prenuptial agreement and spell all of this out. Of course, you can also write down any requests you have, and I'll do my best to satisfy you."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuanjin gave a meaningful and chilling smile, "Okay, as long as you don't regret it."

After saying that, he picked up his coat, slammed the door and left.

The moment the door closed.

Su Mi's nerves finally relaxed. He looked up at the ceiling and realized that he had also been affected by Xiao Xuanjin.

He was crazy enough to sacrifice his marriage, and she agreed in a daze.

While being extremely sober, both of them were rushing to an absurd gamble.

But fortunately, it was only three years.

Three years later, hopefully everything will be settled.

After sitting in the box for a while, Su Mi returned to the Su Mansion.

Su Boren and Wei Rushuang haven't come back yet, most likely they are still with their in-laws.

When Su Mi returned to the study, he saw a black file on his desk that he had not had time to open before going on a business trip.

I couldn't help but wonder, what would she do if she saw it that day? Would she be able to control the situation in time?

Then she shook her head. There is no if in this world. What was she thinking?

Opening the file, Su Mi saw the information about the Xiao family.

She knew about the Xiao family when she was in Huacheng, but she mostly heard about it from others.

Now I finally get to know the Xiao family formally.

After flipping through a few pages, I saw Xiao Xuanjin's information.

Most of them are decisions and propositions he made after taking charge of the family business.

After seeing this, Su Mi realized that he had never allowed himself to be idle in these years.

Perhaps this is the Xiao Xuanjin that the system wants to see.

Suddenly I remembered that New Year’s Eve.

The wish she told him was that he could shoulder his responsibilities and take the path he should take.

In the end, he still fulfilled his promise.

Closing the documents in his hand, Su Mi opened his notebook and began to search for everything in Huacheng.

It was almost dusk when Su Boren and Wei Rushuang came back.

Su Mi called them directly into the study.

Su Boren sat at the tea table, boiling water and making tea skillfully. "Qingqing, what do you want to talk to us about?"

Wei Rushuang leaned against the sofa, waiting for her daughter to ask questions.

Su Mi looked at his parents and asked, "Let me ask you, when did you choose the Xiao family?"

"Baby, why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"I want to know the whole story." Although things have come to this point, Su Mi still wants to find out the truth.

Su Boren didn't intend to hide it. "Probably before you returned to China, we both had that plan, but we took your wishes into consideration...so..."

Su Mi didn't expect it to be so early. The key point was that no one from the Xiao family came to the homecoming banquet.

"Dad, this is wrong. If you have that intention, why didn't you bring Xiao Xuanjin to the banquet that day?"

Although Wei Rushuang was puzzled as to why her daughter reacted like this, she still explained, "Xiao Jin came to the dinner that day and fell in love with you at first sight, but he didn't find a chance to meet you."

What love at first sight? This must be a lie made up by Xiao Xuanjin to deceive them.

Wait...So actually, the reason Xiao Xuanjin stopped her car that day was not because he tracked her down through overseas clues, but because he discovered her at the dinner party.

But he actually endured it and didn't look for her at the party, but came to trouble her after it was over. He probably didn't want her to know that he was also on the invitation list that day.

This also makes it convenient for him to do something unexpectedly. This man is really insidious now.

Su Mi supported her forehead and said that before the dinner that day, she always felt that she had forgotten something, and she forgot to check the guest list.

She was really careless. She never thought that her parents would invite the big family members from Huacheng to come from far away to attend the banquet.

What was even more unexpected was that Xiao Xuanjin actually came.

"Mom and Dad, why do you want to marry me to Hwaseong? I am currently taking over the company. How can I manage the company if I go there?"

Su Mi's original thought was that his parents would definitely choose a family in Jiangcheng for marriage, and any further away would be at most a family in the surrounding areas.

After all, she still had the responsibility of being the heir, and if she married far away, she would be unable to do anything.
