Chapter 20 One-Year Contract Marriage



The man held his forehead. He had experienced so many difficult cases before, so he wouldn't say anything.

But facing He You, I really feel powerless.

"Youyou, that's not what I meant~"

"Then what do you mean, Lu Jingming, I really misjudged you."

Such decisive words made the other person feel heartbroken.

"It's my fault. I made you feel wronged."

In fact, today, he was worried about her going out alone.

So after packing up everything at home, I hurried to find her.

Unexpectedly, I encountered that scene.

"Youyou, listen to me.

What happened today was indeed my fault. I apologized on your behalf without asking for the whole story."

He You snorted coldly, sat there with his shoulders hugged, and didn't want to pay attention to him.

“There will be a lot of people living in the family quarters here.

Since you hit her today, the nature of the situation is different, so I wanted to apologize to her.

Later you will need to get along with everyone and cannot leave a bad reputation.

The nature of my job is quite special, so I may need to go out frequently."

The man seemed to be explaining, but he didn't know what he was saying specifically. However, He You still understood the general meaning from his words.

"Hey, Lu Jingming, do you believe me?"

"Of course I believe you."

The man answered almost subconsciously, his tone sounding so matter-of-fact.

Her anger also subsided a little.

"Today, I went to the store to buy rapeseed and tools.

On the way back, I happened to meet Song Qiuling. She was very unreasonable and spoke rudely, thinking that I went to their door on purpose.

Later, he provoked me in various ways, and then we started fighting.

But she was the first to strike."

After this explanation, Lu Jingming quickly grabbed her shoulders.

"What about you? Were you hit?"

Seeing his nervous look, He You let out a long sigh.

"I'm fine, I just can't get over this.

Lu Jingming, to be honest, this is all your fault."

"I?"

The man was also a little puzzled and asked directly.

"Yeah, don't tell me you don't know that Song Qiuling is interested in you."

Mainly, I want to see what this man is thinking.

“Youyou, I have nothing to do with her.

Because she is Song Ran's sister, they sometimes meet. She is also an extrovert and will say hello to everyone.

She and I are just acquaintances, and we haven't done anything inappropriate, I swear!"

These words were sincere and of course He You would believe them.

“Since you have no interest in her, stay away from her and don’t even talk to her.

You have to find your place. You are married now and have a family.

Although we don't have much emotional foundation, since we have obtained a marriage certificate, we must respect each other.

Lu Jingming, although I came to the Northwest with you, I also have my own ideals and ambitions.

I don't want to waste my time and energy on these meaningless things, do you understand?"

This is a very rational and correct statement, and it re-examines the relationship between the two people.

The man nodded solemnly, almost as if it were a guarantee.

"Don't worry, I will let Song Qiuling apologize to you for what happened today.

I will also go find Song Ran, and something like this will never happen again.

From now on, there will be no private communication between our family and theirs."

He You was quite satisfied with his reaction.

Based on my experience in my previous life, this person is indeed not someone who attracts a lot of attention.

I usually focus all my energy on work, so Song Qiuling must have come here on her own.

“Well, I hope you can do what you say.

Lu Jingming, I know exactly why we got married.

I used to like Xie Chunhe and thought I would marry him.

Later, He Miaomiao came back, and my adoptive mother scared me, saying that she would send me to the mountains to bring good luck to the old man.

I was afraid, so I agreed to you.

Or maybe you married me to repay the Xie family for raising you!

If you feel that there is no way for us to be together, or if you have someone you like more.

Then just tell me directly, I, He You, am not someone who can’t pick up or let go.

I hope that we can all be more open-minded in our future lives.”

Lu Jingming listened to her quietly, and his heart suddenly ached.

"Youyou, are you not going to want me anymore?"

That hurt look in his eyes, as if he were a bullied young wife, was completely different from his usual image of being in control.

"No, you didn't understand me.

Our relationship didn't start off well.

So I hope that at the end, everyone can be more honest.

Of course, we can also try to accept each other.

But for everything, we must make comprehensive plans.”

When she was reborn, He You felt that she had let Lu Jingming down in her previous life, so she wanted to repay him well in this life.

Now that the two of them have arrived in the northwest, she realizes that reality is not what she imagined.

Lu Jingming is very outstanding and has his own career and social circle.

Some people like him, or rather, he is not short of people who love him.

If he chose to be tied to her just because of responsibility, then she didn't want to be a bondage to him.

Sometimes, separation is a good thing.

"good."

The man's eyes dimmed instantly, like the stars in the sky that had lost their luster.

What does this mean? Don’t tell me.

He You was angry and felt powerless as if no one would argue with him.

"Okay, since you agree with my idea.

Let's try it out first, and after a year, if we feel that neither of us is suitable, then we can break up."

Lu Jingming closed his eyes for a moment, suppressing all his emotions, and then put on a relieved expression.

"Whatever you say, I'll listen to you.

Youyou, it’s getting late, let’s go back.”

We need to stay in a guesthouse tonight.

Bring all your luggage and other things here tomorrow, it will be like moving.

The conversation was over. Although He You felt a little suffocated, he didn't say anything else and followed him back.

In the evening, both of them were in a bad mood, but Lu Jingming still took care of her as usual, and even brought her back the foot washing water.

"Actually, you don't have to do this. I can do these things myself."

The man paused, but did not stop his movements. He lifted her two feet and placed them in the basin.

"It's okay. If I'm busy with work in the future, I won't have so much time to take care of you.

Coming here with me has caused you a lot of hardship.”
