Chapter 7 Why don’t you choose to have a relationship with me?
marry?
"You mean... getting married? You and me?" Xu Xian's pupils shrank slightly, and she pointed tremblingly at Jiang Shibai, then at herself.
She suspected that she had heard nothing.
"Yes, I will marry you." Jiang Shibai said with certainty and a hint of smile in his clear eyes.
Xu Xian didn't react for a moment, blurting out his thoughts, "Shouldn't you just give me a check and tell me to give birth to the child and never show up in your world again?"
"I look like this kind of person?" Jiang Shibai was a little confused. It seemed that he didn't leave this kind of stereotype impression on Xu Xian, right?
Xu Xian smiled awkwardly, feeling ashamed. Could she say that she had read too much domineering CEO literature?
"Let's get back to the point and talk about marriage. Or maybe just forget it. A marriage that's tied down won't be happy."
There's nothing wrong with her brain about marrying for the sake of having children.
Going to the hospital is the best option now as you have no feelings for the fat in your belly.
Seeing that she changed the subject, Jiang Shibai didn't expose the embarrassment on her face, and said smoothly: "Are you willing to abort him? Don't you want him to see the world?"
After these words were spoken, the office fell silent for a moment.
Xu Xian glanced at her belly, which hadn't budged at all, and carefully considered her words before finally saying, word by word, "I admit that conceiving him was an accident. It's unfair to him, and aborting him was selfish, but that doesn't mean he has to be my bondage."
"I'm willing to give up my marriage for him today, but will I have to give up everything for him in the future? That doesn't seem fair to me."
She was very clear-headed and was not kidnapped by two or three sentences in front of her. She was an independent person and should not sacrifice herself for anyone. Family, marriage and children would become shackles.
She knows herself well that her family background and abilities are not compatible with Jiang Shibai's, and there is even a huge gap between them. A marriage between people from different social classes is destined not to last long.
Jiang Shibai was stunned, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly realized that it was his narrow-mindedness that made him right.
"So you mean to knock him out?"
"Yeah." Xu Xian nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "Or the child is yours and the money is mine."
If she had a choice, she would not want to abort the baby. It would be too cruel for the child to bear the consequences of her mistake.
"Aren't you afraid that my future marriage partner won't tolerate him? That he will be abused? That I'm biased?" Jiang Shibai's lips curled slightly, his facial expression remained unchanged, but his eyes grew darker.
As long as I can get married, what does it matter if I discredit myself?
"I--" Xu Xian choked. She knew a person's appearance but not his heart. She really couldn't guarantee how Jiang Shibai would treat this child.
After a while, Xu Xian licked his dry lips and said, "How about... having an abortion?"
She asked cautiously, not because she was timid, but Jiang Shibai's face darkened the moment she opened her mouth.
Jiang Shibai seemed to understand what she meant. He didn't want to get involved with him. He tapped his knees with his fingertips and said softly, "Do you have someone you like?"
"No." Xu Xian didn't understand his question and answered decisively. Even if there was, it was a thing of the past and everything had changed.
Jiang Shibai chuckled, stood up from his chair, walked around the desk, pressed the water dispenser switch under Xu Xian's gaze, and filled a cup of warm water.
While she was puzzled, he placed the water on the table in front of her and said in a gentle voice, "Moisten your throat."
"Thank you." Faced with his attentiveness, Xu Xian pursed his lips to express his gratitude, then picked up the water glass and took a few sips.
She was indeed a little thirsty.
The next second, Jiang Shibai bent down with one hand on the back of her chair and leaned close to her ear. His warm breath sprayed on her shoulders and neck, and her fair skin turned a layer of crimson.
Stunned, she could only hear the man's gentle voice, which filled her ears completely. "Xu Xian, why don't you choose to have a relationship with me?"
Xu Xian's thin eyelids trembled slightly, and his thick, curled eyelashes were like a small curved fan, blowing wind into his hard heart. At this moment, it seemed as if something collapsed and disintegrated in his mind.
Jiang Shibai is undoubtedly excellent, a child of destiny, gentle as jade. At least after meeting him today, he can be described as a peerless young man.
But she couldn't control a man like this, and she didn't want to bother with him.
Seeing that she was unmoved, Jiang Shibai coaxed her in a low voice, "My conditions are not bad, right? At least as a husband and father, I should be qualified. Are you sure you can meet someone with the same conditions in the future?"
"Besides, you won't lose anything by marrying me. You know better than me which is more cost-effective, the immediate paycheck or the long-term paycheck."
He took advantage of Xu Xian's weakness of lack of money. Ever since he knew her, money was the central idea of many of her things.
She loves money, and he doesn't hate it. Everyone in the world has something they love. It just happens that she likes money. Instead, he can't help but feel lucky that he has money.
Xu Xian had to admit that the second half of the sentence hit her heart a little bit, she was indeed short of money.
If she married Jiang Shibai, the president of Jiang Group, all her current difficulties would be solved at a glance.
Whether it is the mother in the hospital or the baby in the belly.
"Why do you insist on marrying me?"
Seeing her relax, Jiang Shibai raised his thin lips slightly, with a smile at the corner of his eyes, "My family is pressing me hard."
Xu Xian nodded in understanding. As the president of Jiang Group, the huge family business did need an heir, and it was not unreasonable for the elders in the family to urge him to get married.
Jiang Shibai straightened up and pressed the intercom on his desk. "Wang Bai, come in with the agreement."
After a while, Wang Bai came in with his lawyer. The four of them sat on the sofa. The lawyer dutifully handed a whole stack of contracts between Jiang Shibai and Xu Xian and flipped through the contents.
"These are all the movable and immovable properties under Mr. Jiang's name, as well as the group's shares..."
The lawyer diligently analyzed the contents of the document. Xu Xian had not studied law, so she did not understand many of the professional terms and their meanings. After listening for more than ten minutes, she finally couldn't help it.
"Stop, just tell me where you want to sign." Xu Xian felt dizzy after hearing this. Anyway, she had no money, so he couldn't cheat her.
Jiang Shibai was stunned for a moment and reminded: "Are you sure you don't want to read the contents of the agreement?"
"Do I have money?" Xu Xian asked a soul-searching question, blinking his innocent eyes.
What was there about her that was worth his calculation?
Jiang Shibai couldn't help but chuckle, his smile was so beautiful that even the spring breeze was not as good as it. Xu Xian was slightly stunned and almost licked his lips.
It turns out that handsome men look better when they smile.
After he had finished laughing, he said, "The agreement on the recognition of pre-marital property should be revised. Delete the clause that states that the ownership of both parties' pre-marital property will not change due to marriage. Change it to state that pre-marital property will be jointly owned by both parties after marriage."
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them looked at Jiang Shibai in disbelief.
Wang Bai hesitated to speak, and his eyes changed slightly when he looked at Xu Xian.
Even if Xu Xian didn't understand the content, she knew the implication of this sentence. The meaning of his words had become a real act of gift, which meant that if they divorced in the future, she could take away half of his property, whether it was pre-marital or post-marital property.
"Are you sure? Aren't you afraid that I'm a liar?" Xu Xian asked fearfully, swallowing subconsciously.
As far as she knew, the property under his name could cost her tens of thousands of dollars.
Jiang Shibai's expression remained unchanged as he signaled his lawyer to modify the agreement.
"I told you that you won't suffer any loss if you marry me."
Xu Xian smiled awkwardly, and suddenly felt that it was a bit ungrateful for him to refuse to marry him just now.
In the face of money, she is not unwilling to give up her marriage.
Suddenly she realized that she was quite worldly.
After the lawyer finished revising the contract, Xu Xian and Jiang Shibai signed their names neatly, and then Wang Bai followed the lawyer to notarize it.
"Let's go, let's get the certificate." Jiang Shibai said after looking at his phone.
Xu Xian was clearly not in the right state of mind. He stood up and said in confusion, "I didn't bring my household registration book."
"Did you bring your ID?"
"Um."
"With the new policy, you don't need a household registration booklet to get a marriage certificate. Bring your ID card."
