"He's a born wanderer, haha, don't laugh at me, but all the men in the Fang family, young and old, are the same. But Alex is lucky to have met you, you can make him settle down. You have many problems, you come from a poor background, your education is limited, and your personality is not mature enough. But you have one advantage that others don't have, and that is your steadiness. I have never seen any girl who is willing to take every step carefully. Only someone like you can tie him down and prevent him from living a life of wandering."
"Can I?" Qin Xiaoyu suddenly lost confidence.
“Yes! And another thing is that you have an extremely strong learning ability, so you two will be an evenly matched couple. You will influence each other to move forward, and only two people like that can spend their lives together.” Madam Fang changed her words and said meaningfully, “But, child, in a relationship, it’s not enough for only one person to make an effort.”
“My daughter said the same thing.” Qin Xiaoyu couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Clever little girl, Emma is right, the Fang family needs genetic improvement, and it’s most suitable for you to do it.” Madam Fang stood up. Qin Xiaoyu was fine at first, but then she suddenly realized there was something more to her words and blushed.
"He's always been here, just avoiding you. This is the first time he's met a worthy opponent in his life; isn't that his good fortune?" Madam Fang said, then walked out.
Qin Xiaoyu then realized that she hadn't been mistaken; he really had been there all along.
Yes, it's not enough for only one person to put in the effort in a relationship. Now is the time for her to make her move.
In a corner of the complex, there's an inconspicuous two-story building, also covered in ivy, and shorter than the other buildings, so it's almost overlooked. Mrs. Fang said, "This is A Lei's secret garden."
As soon as Qin Xiaoyu entered the room, she was surrounded by the noise of e-sports games. Needless to say, A Lei was using games to pass the time, perhaps as a form of anesthesia.
The entire floor was like an arcade, with all sorts of arcade and single-player games—basically any game a boy would like. It's a pity he was born in the wrong era; if he were in the 21st century, he'd be living the dream.
Are was focused on dealing with a group of ninjas, holding the controller and moving it up, down, left, and right, his facial muscles tense and taut.
He had lost a lot of weight in the month since they last met, his hair had grown longer, and he had a stubble of stubble on his face. He was so focused on his surroundings that he didn't even notice Qin Xiaoyu's arrival.
Instead of impulsively disturbing him, she quietly sat down behind him and waited patiently.
It turns out he was always the one waiting for her, but now that he's in a different role, it feels good too.
Watching him busy is a kind of happiness.
After the game ended, A Lei let out a long sigh of relief and stretched.
Suddenly his arm stopped in mid-air, and he spotted Qin Xiaoyu in the reflection of a screen next to him.
He slowly lowered his arm without turning around or saying anything, as if he were having an internal struggle.
Qin Xiaoyu didn't want to give him any chance. She stood up, walked behind him, reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck from behind, whispering, "Don't leave me, okay?"
"You've had too much to drink?" A Lei asked, then immediately denied it. "You're not drunk. If you're drunk, all you'll do is sleep."
“I wasn’t drunk. I used to take it for granted that you would always be there, but now I realize that you might not be. When you’re not here, my heart is empty, and I need you to fill it.”
"What if I can't fill it?"
"You have to take responsibility. You spoiled me. Don't abandon me." After saying this, Qin Xiaoyu felt goosebumps.
"Did they drug you?" Are was already horrified.
"Just pretend I was drugged, it was you who drugged me."
Qin Xiaoyu was glad she was standing behind A Lei, otherwise she would have been so embarrassed.
"Alright, alright, stop talking. What are your conditions?" A Lei had already surrendered.
"I don't want any conditions, I want you!" Qin Xiaoyu gripped A Lei's neck tightly, preventing him from turning around.
"Are you... are you trying to kill me?" A Lei managed to squeeze out the words. Qin Xiaoyu looked down and saw that his face was flushed red. She quickly let go of his hand.
In the blink of an eye, she had fallen into his arms. What kind of operation was this?
"Now that you're a hostage, let's have a fair talk."
"Okay, let's talk fairly. Let me stand up." Qin Xiaoyu sensed that A Lei was already unsettled by her and his desires were stirring. This position was somewhat dangerous.
“If you want to talk, then talk like this. If you don’t want to talk, then get out, and please close the door behind you.” A Lei’s face turned cold again.
"I'll talk." When Qin Xiaoyu came out of Madam Fang's room, she had made up her mind. She had to win over this man; if she missed this opportunity, she would never have another.
Scorpios are flexible and adaptable; what can't they get if they want it?
"Are you saying you accept my conditions, five or six years?"
"No, I want your whole life. You have to give it to me whether you like it or not. If you dare to take it back, I'll kill you."
"Are you serious?" A Lei looked at her suspiciously, now he couldn't quite understand Qin Xiaoyu.
"I'm serious. I'm going to fight you to the death, for the rest of my life. Scorpios don't have ex-husbands, only widows. Congratulations, you've hit the jackpot."
"What prize did I win?" A Lei's intelligence was slowly recovering, and his fighting ability was also returning.
"Grand Prize"
"I heard the grand prize is awarded to a woman who is very skilled in bed, and it's you?"
"..."
The turn was so fast that Qin Xiaoyu was almost thrown off.
"Ah Lei, this concerns our entire lives. Let's stop playing games and have a proper talk." Qin Xiaoyu sat up straight, but Ah Lei still held her tightly with his arms, refusing to let go for a moment.
"Do you think I'm still playing games? Who wants to play such a painful game? I guess this is what the ancients called retribution." A Lei buried his head in her neck and gently rubbed against her.
"Me too," Qin Xiaoyu said, sounding somewhat aggrieved.
"None of us want to suffer, so we're just going to make do like this?"
"No, I won't settle. I'm the kind of person who either takes things seriously or doesn't want anything at all. I didn't come here to settle. I want you to come back with me properly, to talk about marriage, not five or six years, but a lifetime," Qin Xiaoyu said firmly.
"Where did you get the courage to challenge me to a fight?" A Lei was getting a little out of control from Qin Xiaoyu's nagging.
"Live with the intention of dying; when you know you are going to lose something, you will have nothing to fear."
"Living towards death, well said. So let's begin now. Let's talk about the future."
"Get married within a year, have a baby within two years, two in five years, or three in seven years." Qin Xiaoyu was a little surprised after she finished speaking; she might really be crazy.
She had thought about this plan in her mind, but announcing it directly seemed inappropriate. Her face flushed crimson.
