Chapter 307: You Have One Minute to Consider
Wang Ye found this woman unpredictable and somewhat frightening. He felt that every word she said was true, and it was precisely this sense of truth that made her so terrifying.
Because she couldn't tell when she was lying.
Bai Yi said, "Would you like to consider it?"
Without even thinking, Wang Ye refused outright, "I won't consider it!"
Bai Yi wasn't surprised, he just smiled and asked, "Really not going to consider it?"
"real!"
"But it seems you can't make the decision."
Wang Ye is now extremely regretful, regretting why he chose Bai Yi to act in the play. He feels like he has fallen into a fire pit.
What exactly do you want?
Bai Yi said, "Didn't I already say? If we get married, I can promise you that as long as you don't mention divorce, I will never initiate a divorce, and I will repay you at a three percent interest rate on whatever amount I borrow from you."
“We can draw up a written agreement, write an IOU, and we can also add a prenuptial agreement. If I fail to do so, my house will belong to you.”
Wang Ye seemed a little hesitant.
Bai Yi pressed her advantage, saying, "If you marry me, your aunt won't force you to go on blind dates anymore, and you can finally give up your promise. After that, we'll leave each other alone and live our lives as before."
"If you meet someone you like, you can ask me for a divorce anytime."
Wang Ye opened his mouth, wanting to say "fuck".
Because he was genuinely moved, especially by Bai Yi's statement about not interfering with each other.
His biggest headache right now is He Fen pressuring him to get married. If this is resolved, he won't have to listen to He Fen's nagging anymore.
"How about it? I'll give you a minute to think about it."
Wang Ye was stunned. "One minute? What kind of time do I need to think about it! Can't you at least give me a few days?"
"I don't understand, what are you hesitating about in a mutually beneficial collaboration?"
Wang Ye said, "I'm afraid you'll take the money and run away."
"Where am I supposed to run off to? I shouldn't have said that, but Wang Ye, do you think I can't do what Lily can do?"
These words completely won over Wang Ye.
Bai Yi is better looking than Lili. Lili can swindle so much money from men, so if Bai Yi wanted to, she could definitely swindle more than Lili with her intelligence.
"One minute is up. Manager Wang, have you made up your mind?"
"I..." Wang Ye was still conflicted. After all, the decision was too sudden, and he couldn't quite process it.
"Okay, it seems you've made up your mind." Bai Yi took the initiative to make the decision for him, took his arm, and pulled him back into the house.
Wang Ye was still somewhat dazed. He hadn't thought it through, but he couldn't bring himself to refuse, so he could only follow Bai Yi back, completely lost.
He Fen had been standing at the door watching the two of them for a long time, afraid that the brat would be angered by Xiao Bai and leave.
Seeing the two of them return peacefully, she finally felt relieved.
"Xiaobai, what are you two talking about after running so far away?"
Bai Yi said, "Regarding the bride price, we've discussed it. We'll not buy a house; he'll just move in with me, and we can use the money meant for the house as the bride price."
He Fen hesitated when she heard this. Having been fooled once before, she dared not be fooled a second time. Houses in the city center are not cheap, and the bride price would be at least a million.
What if this newbie, like Lily, takes the money and runs away?
“Auntie, if you’re worried, you can give the money to Wang Ye. Anyway, we’re married, so what’s mine is his, and what’s his is mine.”
That makes sense, mainly because Bai Yi is such an outstanding person that He Fen is reluctant to let him go.
"Well, that's fine too," He Fen agreed verbally, inviting Bai Yi inside to sit for a while.
She made an excuse to have Wang Ye go out with her to buy groceries, and then asked Wang Ye if he knew anything about Bai Yi's background.
Since Wang Ye had already agreed to the cooperation, he naturally nodded.
"Mom, it's all true. She works at my cousin's company. I've been there, and my cousin knows about it. If you're worried, you can ask my cousin."
He Fen had an idea in mind. She planned to invite Qiao Xing over for lunch to see if the two really knew each other and to find out more about Bai Yi.
When something unexpected happens, you always feel uneasy about eating it.
Especially considering He Fen's current family circumstances, her first reaction when faced with such an outstanding girl as Bai Yi would definitely be that she is a fraud.
This is actually the inferiority complex caused by the gap.
Qiao Xing had only slept for less than four hours when she was woken up by the frantic ringing of the phone. She groggily reached for her phone and held it to her ear to answer.
"Xingxing, come to my place for lunch. Your cousin brought his girlfriend home, you should meet her."
Hearing the first part of the sentence, Qiao Xing wanted to hang up, but upon hearing the second part, she snapped awake and opened her eyes wide. "My cousin found a girlfriend?"
"Yes, you might even know him. Anyway, come on over, I'm almost done cooking."
Qiao Xing was still half asleep and her mind was a little foggy. While she was lost in thought, her aunt had already hung up the phone.
My cousin found a girlfriend?
Why does she feel like she hasn't woken up yet?
Qiao Xing couldn't sleep either, so she called Wang Ye to ask him what was going on.
Wang Ye hid in his room and told her the gist of what had happened.
Then he said, "Come here and finish the charade so I can be free."
Qiao Xing didn't really want to go, but Wang Ye had asked, so she had to agree. Besides, Bai Yi was her boss and also a friend.
I should at least go there.
Qiao Xing came out rubbing her eyes. Qin Ce and the old man were watching TV in the living room.
Qin Ce stared at the television with a blank expression, seemingly engrossed, but whether he actually absorbed anything was another matter entirely.
When the old man saw her, he greeted her, "Xingxing, you're awake? Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
"Oh, my aunt is calling me to go eat..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ce frowned slightly.
Qiao Xing explained what had happened, then asked Qin Ce, "Are you going?"
"You go ahead, I'm not going."
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
It's just a short walk anyway, so it doesn't matter whether Qin Ce goes or not.
Qiao Xing arrived at her aunt's house, raised her hand and knocked on the door. After a short while, the door opened, and it was her aunt who opened it.
"Xingxing, how did you get here so fast? I still have a few dishes to finish cooking."
"Oh, I'm right next door."
"Oh, I see. You've come to wish the old man a Happy New Year, right? Come in quickly."
Qiao Xing nodded and entered the room to see Bai Yi and Wang Ye sitting on the sofa, but the two were sitting 800 meters apart, which did not look like a couple on a date at all.
"Team Leader Bai."
Bai Yi smiled and said, "Qiao Xing, Happy New Year."
Qiao Xing chuckled twice, "Happy New Year..."
Seeing this, her aunt realized they really did know each other, and her anxiety eased slightly. "Xingxing, look, didn't I tell you you might know each other?"
"Yeah, I never expected this..." Qiao Xing couldn't help but take another few more glances at the two of them; they just seemed so strange.
Qiao Xing never dreamed that these two would sit together; it was too strange.
Why didn't your husband come?
"Oh, he has something to do and can't leave."
"That's alright, it's the same next time."
Sometimes Qiao Xing couldn't help but marvel at her aunt's ability to forget. No matter how unpleasant things had been before, whenever something happened, she could always pretend that nothing had occurred.
If Qiao Xing were to be petty and calculating, he would seem rather narrow-minded.
