Chapter 105: Move to my place
The last time I met Jiang Yuxu in the teahouse, Jiang Yuxu said that he would marry Song Yi.
Fu Xijing was angry at the time, but more of it was mockery.
But today, he heard Song Yi say this with his own ears.
It's not just about marriage, but also about her "passionate confession" to Jiang Yuxu.
There is no harm without comparison.
All the things I said to him in the past, such as "I'm not worthy of you" and "We are not from the same world", were just high-sounding excuses.
It's just because I don't love him as a person.
The six years they had known each other was not as good as one or two months for Jiang Yuxu.
Thinking of this, Fu Xijing raised the corners of his mouth in mockery again.
——
Song Yi was not in good condition, so Jiang Yuxu took her to the guest room.
After entering the room, Jiang Yuxu helped Song Yi to the sofa. Seeing her red eyes, he considerately took out a few tissues for her.
Song Yi took it and whispered "thank you".
Her voice was a little shaky, and it sounded like she was suppressing herself.
Jiang Yuxu sat down next to Song Yi and held her shoulders, "Cry if you want to."
Song Yi wiped his eyes and said, "It's okay, I just need to calm down for a few minutes."
Jiang Yuxu nodded, "Did he hurt you just now?"
"No." Song Yi pursed her lips and shook her head slightly.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuxu arrived in time.
If it had been a few minutes later, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape.
Before she knew it, she really owed Jiang Yuxu too many favors.
Thinking of this, Song Yi felt a great deal of pressure, and suddenly he couldn't bring himself to ask for marriage.
"Song Yi, marry me first." Song Yi was thinking about this matter when he was suddenly interrupted by Jiang Yuxu's voice.
She was startled and looked at him in disbelief, almost thinking there was something wrong with her ears.
Could it be that Jiang Yuxu just heard what she and Fu Xijing said?
"Looking at the current situation, marrying me first is the best solution." Seeing Song Yi silent, Jiang Yuxu analyzed for her: "After you get married, Fu Xijing will have to be more cautious if he wants to harass you again."
Of course Song Yi also knew this.
but--
"This is unfair to you," Song Yi said. "You have no obligation to solve these problems for me."
"You said it was mutually beneficial," Jiang Yuxu said. "I've also been harassed recently. Even if it hadn't happened today, I would still ask you to marry me."
Harassment?
Song Yi: "...Who harassed you?"
Jiang Yuxu: "Do you think no one is pursuing me?"
"That's not what I meant." Song Yi explained somewhat embarrassedly.
She was just surprised that someone had the guts to harass Jiang Yuxu. Wasn't she afraid of being sued by him directly?
However, after Jiang Yuxu told this story, Song Yi suddenly understood why Jiang Yuxu had been so nice to her recently.
Especially helping her find someone——
He must have been planning to fake marry her at that time, so he did her a favor first.
Even if it was to repay the favor, Song Yi would not refuse.
What's more, she also needs to make this move now.
In this way, she and Jiang Yuxu hit it off again.
"What do you think? Do you agree?" Jiang Yuxu asked Song Yi what he thought.
Song Yi intertwined her fingers, feeling a little nervous: "I'll follow your arrangements, but... you may need to meet my mother first."
"That's no problem," Jiang Yuxu said, "but we need her consent."
"She should like you." Song Yi paused, "But, your background... My mother is afraid that your family will not think highly of me."
"You've met my parents and other family members." Jiang Yuxu stared into Song Yi's eyes: "What do you think of them?"
"Very good." Song Yi said this sincerely.
She really thought that the Jiang family was very nice. Whether it was his parents or other relatives, they were all very easy-going and had no airs at all towards her.
It's completely different from the atmosphere in a politician's family that one might imagine.
"Leave your mother to me. I'll reassure her." Jiang Yuxu promised Song Yi, "Just cooperate with me."
Cooperate.
Song Yi pondered the words and asked tentatively, "Then...how do we fake a marriage?"
If they just talked about getting married without getting a marriage certificate, Fu Xijing would know with just a quick check.
But if they really get a marriage certificate, she and Jiang Yuxu will truly be legally married.
"Get ready first. After I meet your mother, you can move to my apartment." Jiang Yuxu said.
Song Yi was stunned after hearing this, and a hint of wariness unconsciously appeared in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Yuxu.
Suddenly she remembered the reminder Ying Xing had given her before.
"You stay in the guest room." Jiang Yuxu saw Song Yi's expression and explained, "Let's do this in full. Living with me will prevent Fu Xijing from harassing you."
...That's true.
"I won't do anything to you, don't worry about that." Jiang Yuxu adjusted his glasses. "If you're really worried, I can prepare tools like a dagger, pepper spray, and a stun gun for you."
Jiang Yuxu laid the matter out in the open, which made Song Yi embarrassed.
She suddenly felt that she was being mean-spirited, "...No need, I was just asking."
"It's a good thing to be on guard against others. I don't feel offended." Jiang Yuxu said, "You should be like this to everyone." Perhaps because he was feeling fragile today, when Song Yi heard Jiang Yuxu say this, a warm current suddenly surged in his heart.
She and Jiang Yuxu had known each other for a very short time, but she had felt from him more than once the feeling that only a relative or close friend could bring.
Maybe... this is fate?
"Thank you." Song Yi sincerely thanked Jiang Yuxu, "I'll follow your arrangements regarding the marriage."
Jiang Yuxu nodded and stared at her for almost a minute, as if he was thinking.
Afterwards, he casually asked, "Can you tell me about what happened between you and Fu Xijing?"
This was the first time Jiang Yuxu asked such an out-of-bounds question.
In the past, whenever something happened and Song Yi had no choice, he would say something ambiguous.
She didn't mean to hide it from Jiang Yuxu, it was just... what happened between her and Fu Xijing was really hard to talk about.
But just now, Fu Xijing had already said that in front of Jiang Yuxu.
She and Jiang Yuxu also decided to have a fake marriage.
Since the cooperation has reached this level and Jiang Yuxu has helped her so much, she really shouldn't hide it anymore.
Song Yi lowered his head, sniffed, and said softly: "I met him in Rome."
Jiang Yuxu said "hmm", he had already understood this during their previous interactions.
He played the role of a qualified listener, not urging or questioning, but quietly waiting for Song Yi to speak.
"The money for my graduate studies abroad came from my mother's savings, but when I first went to Rome to look for an apartment, the agent cheated me out of all the money... I didn't dare tell her."
"He happened to see me crying on the side of the road..." Song Yi recounted the scene of that day to Jiang Yuxu. "After he found out I was scammed out of money, he asked me if I wanted to be with him. I didn't have any better options at the time."
Jiang Yuxu: "When did you break up?"
"After graduation." Song Yi said, "We agreed at the time that it would be two years."
