"I don't need you to sign any agreement with me to guarantee that you won't hide anything from me again." Lu Youxi didn't mind thinking darkly. If Zhou Shuyan wanted, the agreement would appear to be completely in her favor. However, if she really encountered the same thing, Lawyer Sheng would still be able to ensure that Zhou Shuyan would not suffer any loss.
Maybe because he suffered too much at the hands of the Lin family in his previous life, Lu Youxi has become accustomed to preparing for the worst in everything.
For her, she actually already trusted Zhou Shuyan very much and liked him very much.
Otherwise, with her temper, Zhou Shuyan would only lie to her this time and they would be over.
But she struggled for a long time and had no intention of ending her relationship with Zhou Shuyan.
I am still willing to give Zhou Shuyan another chance.
But because of past experiences, although Lu Youxi privately believed that Zhou Shuyan would not be like this and was unwilling to speculate about Zhou Shuyan in such a bad way, she still couldn't help but prepare for the worst.
"I don't want anything from you, Chengzhou or private." Lu Youxi said, "My attitude is consistent. I can forgive you this time. As you said, apart from this matter, you haven't hidden anything else from me."
"Really." Zhou Shuyan said, "I haven't hidden anything from you."
Lu Youxi nodded, "I'm not saying that you can't hide anything from me. Every couple has their own little secrets. I don't mind your little secrets with your brothers that you can't tell others, including your wife, your private money, and so on. But if you hide anything from me on issues of principle, there will be no future for us."
"Whether it's what happened before or what will happen next, if you hide something important from me again, something that I should know." Lu Youxi paused, looking at Zhou Shuyan with both eyes, serious and firm, "There will really be no future for the two of us."
Zhou Shuyan also became serious, and his previous cautious temperament like a big dog disappeared, but his serious look made people feel at ease.
"I won't hide it from you anymore." Zhou Shuyan said in a deep voice.
Lu Youxi nodded, "Okay, then let's just forget about it. I won't bring it up again in the future."
Zhou Shuyan was driving, and Lu Youxi asked curiously, "Where are we going?"
"Go find Lawyer Sheng." Zhou Shuyan said.
Lu Youxi: “…”
"Didn't I say that there's no need to sign any agreement?" Lu Youxi said helplessly, "Why do you need to go find Lawyer Sheng?"
"No, I won't feel at ease if I don't sign." Zhou Shuyan said.
Lu Youxi: "...You didn't say it the other way around, did you?"
Zhou Shuyan concentrated on driving and did not dare to turn around to look at Lu Youxi.
Just as the red light came on at the traffic light ahead, Zhou Shuyan stopped and turned to Lu Youxi and said seriously, "Signing the agreement means you agree that as long as I don't lie to you again, you won't abandon me. This is a very important guarantee for me."
Lu Youxi: “…”
Listen to what you are saying.
"Do you want to sign an agreement that I will not abandon you until you cheat on me next time?" Lu Youxi thought to herself that Zhou Shuyan had the nerve to say that to Lawyer Sheng, and she didn't even have the face to sign it.
Zhou Shuyan had a look on his face that said, "Why would you think that?" and said, "That's what we agreed on before. If I lie to you again, I'll leave the house with nothing."
Lu Youxi: “…”
She didn't quite understand Zhou Shuyan's logic.
How can signing such an agreement guarantee that he will not be abandoned?
Zhou Shuyan continued, "If you are willing to sign this agreement, it means that you will not abandon me before I deceive you. This is of course a guarantee for me."
Lu Youxi: “…”
Lu Youxi took a deep breath and said, "There's really no need to do this. If you insist on signing an agreement to protect it, I would rather sign an agreement that I will not leave you until you deceive me."
"Otherwise, if I sign an agreement with you that puts you in danger of losing everything, how will your mother look at me?" Lu Youxi said.
Lu Youxi: “…”
At this time, the traffic light turned green and Zhou Shuyan drove first.
Then he added: "I told her about this."
Lu Youxi: “…”
"You were very angry when I lied to you. Similarly, I couldn't lie to my mother, so I told her as well." However, Zhou Shuyan told Xu Jingmin not to seek Xu Jingmin's consent, but to let Xu Jingmin know about this.
Fortunately, Xu Jingmin is a person who doesn't worry about anything.
Chengzhou originally belonged to Zhou Shuyan, and Xu Jingmin had never been involved in it.
Xu Jingmin had no objection to how Zhou Shuyan wanted to deal with the matter.
When Zhou Shuyan told Xu Jingmin about this, Xu Jingmin agreed without hesitation.
She said that as long as Zhou Shuyan didn't lie, everything would be fine and she had nothing to worry about.
If Zhou Shuyan lied, this would be his punishment.
Zhou Shuyan also told Lu Youxi about this matter, and used practical actions to show that he would never deceive Lu Youxi again.
Lu Youxi originally thought that Xu Jingmin was an open-minded person, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated Xu Jingmin.
Xu Jingmin was much more relaxed and generous than she thought.
"Do the other elders in your family have any objections?" Lu Youxi couldn't help but ask.
Zhou Shuyan said with a strange look on his face: "Other elders, are you talking about Zhou Xueyi?"
Lu Youxi: “…”
"Your grandfather." Lu Youxi thought to himself, who cares what Zhou Xueyi thinks.
"I really haven't told him yet." Zhou Shuyan said indifferently, "If Cheng Zhou really gives it to you, just let him beat me up."
Lu Youxi: “…”
"Zhou Shuyan, I won't sign this agreement." Lu Youxi said, "There is no such outrageous agreement."
"Don't you believe that I will keep my word? Do you think I am a person who goes back on my words?" Lu Youxi raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Shuyan.
Zhou Shuyan didn't dare to look at her while driving, but he could clearly feel Lu Youxi's gaze.
Zhou Shuyan said hurriedly: "Of course I believe you, you always keep your word."
"That's it." Lu Youxi said, "I'm hungry, let's go eat, and don't mention any more agreements."
Don't make me beat you.
Zhou Shuyan: “…”
Zhou Shuyan didn't dare to make Lu Youxi angry again, so he had to obediently find a restaurant to dine with Lu Youxi.
No longer having to hide his identity, Zhou Shuyan had nothing to worry about.
Driving his own car, he thought that Lu Youxi would never have to take a taxi or squeeze into the subway again.
