"Huh?" Lin Chuxia was surprised. She thought her parents-in-law didn't know about this.
"Then, don't they object?"
"What's there to object to? I'm disposing of my own things," Gu Yuheng said casually, his matter-of-fact tone leaving Lin Chuxia speechless.
"So... what did they say?"
“They said I can decide for myself, since they don’t need me to support them in their old age anyway.” The Gu family elders have their own private property, and they can live a fulfilling life even without their children’s help with expenses such as food, drink, and entertainment in their later years.
So when they learned that Gu Yuheng was going to sign such an unfair treaty, they were shocked, but they didn't object much. They just said, "You decide for yourself. You're not a child anymore. You have your own opinions... If you want to marry someone's girl, you do have to show some sincerity... The worst outcome is that your father and I will prepare an extra pair of chopsticks for you. Anyway, you won't starve."
Gu Yuheng relayed the two elders' words to Lin Chuxia, who couldn't help but smile after hearing them.
These are indeed things her lovely in-laws would say.
"Aren't you afraid that you'll actually end up relying on your parents for support?" Lin Chuxia laughed.
"Won't."
"Um?"
Gu Yuheng looked up at her, a smile in his eyes: "I don't think the person I've set my sights on would be so heartless to me."
"What if I really became that kind of person? Would you regret it?" Lin Chuxia still really wanted to know the answer.
"I won't regret what I've done. If you're really that heartless to me, then... what can I do?" Gu Yuheng said helplessly.
What kind of answer is this?
She was clearly asking him a question, so why did he turn around and ask her the same question?
"How would I know what you're going to do? You'll be the one who ends up with nothing, not me." As if remembering something, Lin Chuxia covered her mouth and chuckled. "Hehe, on the contrary, I'll become a little rich woman."
She squinted, her face beaming with joy, like a child who had just stolen a piece of candy.
Gu Yuheng laughed along, "Then it seems I... can only rely on you, my little rich lady."
Lin Chuxia laughed even harder: "You know what, the way you are now, you really do have the potential to be a gigolo."
At this moment, Gu Yuheng was wearing a loose hospital gown, his head was tied with a white gauze bandage, and his body was wrapped in bandages... He looked as miserable as possible, extremely pitiful, and very easy to evoke people's sympathy.
Gu Yuheng laughed and lay down, suggesting, "Then, wife, do you want to come over and torment me a little?"
Lin Chuxia glanced at him sideways: "You're being indecent!"
Gu Yuheng was still in a good mood, smiling and saying cheerfully, "Don't worry, if I really end up with nothing, I'll definitely rely on you."
Actually, he wasn't worried about the issue she raised at all. If he were worried, he wouldn't have signed the contract in the first place.
He drafted the contract himself; no one forced him. His initial intention was to reassure his future in-laws that they would agree to the marriage.
After all, he didn't seem to have anything better to offer in terms of negotiating with his parents-in-law.
You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.
The Lin family is not short of money or wealth. If his bait is not big enough, he will not be able to sway his parents-in-law.
So he came up with this idea.
