Businessmen are driven by profit, and you're no different when faced with temptation.
You look at him in surprise, and he nods in response with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, this is my sincere offer."
You flip through the contract again, carefully examining every clause without missing a single one.
After a long while, you put down the contract and looked him in the eye.
"What does Mr. Chen want from me? I don't think I have anything that can attract you, so what do I have that is worth Mr. Chen going to such lengths to give up land to get?"
You can't find a single abnormal loophole in the agreement. It can be said to be the cleanest and most unprofitable contract among all the written trap contracts you've ever seen. It's all in black and white. In addition to the normal marriage agreement, it also includes the gift of three well-resourced shops owned by Chen Peiyuan and 10% of the shares in Shengshi Industrial Group, which will not be taken back after the divorce.
In other words, even if you get married immediately and divorce immediately, you can still reap a huge sum of money. This sure-fire deal is very tempting to you. At the same time, you also know very well that businessmen don't do business at a loss. You are a businessman yourself, especially since there is a businessman sitting across from you who is even more cunning than you. You need to be on your guard.
Chen Peiyuan chuckled, swirling the luminous glass in his hand. "Young Mr. Chen, as I said, you're being pressured to get married, and so am I. In any case, we have to comply with our families' demands to get married. Rather than marrying a stranger, it's better to marry someone we know with whom we have a shared interest, like you and me. Dealing with smart people is always so pleasant, isn't it?" He then took a sip of red wine and smiled at you from afar.
You smiled slightly at him, neither saying yes nor no, and Chen Peiyuan didn't seem to care about your answer.
"Bang!"
The bathroom door opened from the inside out, and you walked out into the steamy air, wrapped in a towel and drying your hair. As you walked towards the bed, you saw the white contract on the bedside table. Remembering what Chen Peiyuan had said tonight, you realized that this agreement was perfect, almost entirely in her favor. It was like a perfect pancake hanging in front of you, as if you could have it all by taking a bite.
Even though your marriage to Chen Peiyuan is just a matter of mutual benefit, you still feel inexplicably unhappy.
You throw yourself heavily onto the bed and bury your face in the pillow.
It's as if you've returned to your teenage years. When you graduated, you made a pact with your friends to go hiking the next day. After finally reaching the top of the mountain, you stood there looking at the magnificent landscape, feeling an unprecedented sense of relaxation.
"When you reach the summit, you'll see all the mountains below." Someone suddenly exclaimed, and the others laughed, saying he was the one with the most culture.
"Since we're already here, why don't we shout out our wishes to these things?" The man scratched his face and clothes embarrassed by their laughter. Seeing that they were about to continue making fun of him, he quickly changed the subject and suggested shouting out his thoughts.
"That's a great idea, who wants to go first?" "Me! Me!" "I'll call out first! I'll call out first!"
"I hope to make a lot of money in the future, marry the person I love, and spend my life with them." You, in your youth, shouted this out while everyone else was still vying for first place.
"lifetime"
"You, Chen Yulan, how could you beat me to it?" "Hahaha, I want to make big money too! I want to make big money too!" "Same here, same here! I want to have five, six, seven, eight, ninety relationships!" "Li Qin, you're too greedy!" "Mind your own business!"
The boys laughed and jostled each other, the sunlight shining on them as if they were coated with a light golden light.
You stand aside watching your younger self fantasize about beautiful love and a perfect lover, longing to live a happy and wonderful life with the person you love. You joke around with your friends, standing in the sunlight and loudly swearing that you won't be single for life unless you marry the person you love. Your friends laugh so hard they can't stand up straight, and you, watching from the sidelines, can't help but laugh too. Young and thin-skinned, you blush with embarrassment and shout at your friends to shut up, which only makes them laugh even louder.
It seems you were infected by the joy in your dream, and you woke up smiling. You saw the familiar ceiling again, sat up, and felt a cool sensation on your face. When you touched your face, it was wet with water stains, large patches of water. You realized you had cried, and you wondered why you would cry when it was a beautiful dream.
Turning your head, you see the familiar contract again. Your eyes flicker, and you make up your mind.
Since Chen Peiyuan is giving you such great benefits, why not take them? You can get married and then divorced, but once you've accepted them, don't expect to give them back.
Merchants are driven by profit, and you are no different when faced with temptation. You will stop at nothing to get what is beneficial to yourself.
I just hope this isn't a case of hurting the enemy a thousand while hurting myself eight hundred.
