Qin Hao raised his hand and pointed, "Over there."

Cheng Ji followed the direction he gave and ran quickly. After walking through the weeds for about fifty or sixty meters, he finally found Shangguan Qing with his hands and feet tied. Youxuan was also beside him.

The two were surrounded by a dozen bodyguards, so he couldn't move forward.

Seeing that she was temporarily fine, Cheng Ji finally felt relieved.

He stared at Qin Hao with a fierce and sinister look, like a volcano that was about to erupt in the next second, with blazing flames.

"What do you want?"

Qin Hao took out the contract he had prepared long ago and asked Bai Bingqian to hand it over.

"You sign it, and let Qianyue marry into the Cheng family, and I will let Shangguan Qing return to the antique shop unharmed."

As long as Qin Qianyue and Cheng Ji become legal husband and wife, the Qin family will own half of Cheng Ji's property.

Cheng Ji looked through the last clause, with a hint of sarcasm on his face, "You want to take away 10% of the shares of Cheng Group from me? That's a big appetite. I can sign this, but I won't marry Qin Qianyue."

He can earn more money after giving it away, but marriage is a matter of principle.

He doesn't want any other woman except the one he truly wants.

Qin Hao walked up to Shangguan Qing, his eyes were sinister and cunning, "Don't agree? Then what about this?"

Next second.

He pinched Shangguan Qing's neck fiercely with his palms. Because he used too much force, the blue veins on his arms began to bulge and the muscles on his face were exerting force.

But the moment he pinched her, his expression suddenly became panicked.

What's wrong with her?

Not only was there no pulse in his neck, but his body temperature was also terribly low.

The person looked like...dead.

Qin Hao suppressed his inner panic and tried his best to maintain his composure.

"If you think I'm not pinching her hard enough, I don't mind using a knife to cut a few lines on her face. It's just a pity to ruin such a pretty face."

His fingertips slid down Shangguan Qing's cheek, enjoying her smooth skin teasingly.

When Lei Jiaojiao saw Qin Hao like this, she suddenly regretted cooperating with him.

I hope that after Shangguan Qing recovers his spiritual power, he will settle the score with Qin Hao instead of her.

Cheng Ji rushed forward and the bodyguards immediately stopped him.

He gritted his teeth and uttered with difficulty, "Okay! I'll marry her and take your dirty hands away!"

He looked at Shangguan Qing with heartache. She was unconscious at the moment and could only be manipulated by others.

After Cheng Ji signed quickly, Qin Hao asked him to drive away first, and when Cheng Ji arrived at the Cheng Group, they would send Shangguan Qing back.

Since the person was in Qin Hao's hands, Cheng Ji had no choice but to do as he was told.

He sped away from the suburbs and quickly returned to Cheng Group.

After he left, another person appeared in the ruins.

He walked to Shangguan Qing, squatted down and gently helped her tidy up her messy hair.

Qin Hao said coldly, "She will wake up in a while, I leave her to you."

After saying that, he left with Bai Bingqian, Lei Jiaojiao and a group of bodyguards.

It was a ruin covered with weeds, with only the sound of wind blowing by my ears.

Mu Cheng untied the ropes on her body, his eyes were cold and ruthless, and he murmured, "There is nothing I can't get."

Shangguan Qing, you will become mine sooner or later.

He stayed by his side, waiting for Shangguan Qing to wake up.

The sun sets and the evening breeze rises.

The crescent moon and the sun appear in the sky at the same time.

The effect of the sleeping scent on his body wore off, Shangguan Qing opened his heavy eyelids, and Youxuan also regained consciousness.

The first time she saw Mu Cheng standing in front of her, her brows furrowed instantly and she became a little defensive.

"Why are you here?"

Mu Cheng explained, "I found you and saved you from Qin Hao."

"you?"

What nonsense is this? She thinks they are more like accomplices.

Shangguan Qing still pretended to thank him, "Thank you, I have something to do so I will reply first, Youxuan, let's go."

Mu Cheng stopped in front of her, his tone a little tough, "Aren't you curious about what conditions I used to exchange for you?"

Still acting?

Shangguan Qing was a little annoyed.

It was already annoying that Lei Jiaojiao had tied me up for no reason, and now I had to act with him, which was even more annoying.

He became impatient when speaking, "Tell me! What are the conditions?"

Mu Cheng's expression was somewhat proud, and his voice became louder unconsciously. "Ten percent of the Mu family's assets."

To put it bluntly, it's just money, it's not like she can't afford it.

Shangguan Qing glanced at him with disdain, "I'll return it to you later when I get back to the antique shop. Do you have any more? If not, can I leave now?"

"No...no more." He felt a little guilty at last.

Shangguan Qing took Youxuan away, leaving Mu Cheng standing there, watching her back disappear from his sight.

......

When Cheng Ji returned to Cheng Ji Group, the first thing he did was to find Shangguan Qing's phone number, but he hesitated to press the dial button.

He raised his eyes and instructed Li Yang, "Call her on your phone, and hang up as soon as the call is connected."

If someone answers the phone, it means she is fine.

Li Yang was a little confused, but he still did as he was told.

Few people knew Shangguan Qing’s phone number, and the key point was that the other party hung up immediately after answering the call, as if he had encountered a telecommunications scam.

She seemed to guess who was on the other end of the line.

"Mr. Cheng, connected."

"Well," he breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes suddenly became sinister and cold, "Go to the Qin family... to propose marriage."

......

Qin's house.

Cheng Ji stepped into the Qin family's living room, his steps were steady but could not hide the complexity in his heart.

Everyone in the Qin family sat upright, and the atmosphere was solemn.

He looked directly at Qin Guotao, his eyes showing both determination and helplessness, "Father, I'm discussing the marriage according to the conditions. Let me be frank, this wedding was not my intention. If she is wronged in the future, I will not take care of it."

Since you insist on forcing him to get married, don't blame him for not being able to shoulder the responsibilities of a husband.

When Qin Guotao heard this, his face suddenly changed and his eyes widened with anger. He was about to explode when he saw Cheng Ji take a deep breath.

Cheng Ji continued, "Before we get the marriage certificate, I will draw up a prenuptial agreement so that we can each manage our own property."

They wanted to use marriage to bind the interests of Qin and Cheng, but he would not let them do so.

Qin Guotao's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip from it.

He stood up suddenly, clenched his hands into fists, and said in a low and majestic voice, "Cheng Ji, what's your attitude!"

"Qianyue and you grew up together, why are you signing a prenuptial agreement? Where do you want to put her?"

Cheng Ji stood there, his tone calm but firm, "I still say this, you can get married, but you must sign a prenuptial agreement."

The two men confronted each other, and the atmosphere was extremely tense, as if it was about to explode.

“That’s enough!”

Qin Qianyue's voice penetrated the solidified air.

Everyone's eyes turned to her.

Qin Qianyue slowly stood up and looked at Cheng Ji, "Brother, I am willing to sign."

She wanted to stay with Cheng Ji. It had nothing to do with the Qin Group or any interests. She just liked him, purely liked him.

Qin Guotao and Wen Ruwan's faces changed suddenly when they heard this.

Wen Ruwan was even more eager to stand up and stop them, "Qianyue, we are helping you fight for what you deserve."

"Do I want this, or do you want this?" she asked bluntly, "You never care about what I really want, but you insist on tying me to your own interests!"

She had endured it long enough.

I don't want to be a silent puppet in the corner, at the mercy of others anymore.

Wen Ruwan was a little annoyed, "You haven't even married yet, and you're going to rebel against us?"

Qin Qianyue's eyes gradually turned red because of grievance. She looked at Cheng Ji's face and said, "I know you have always treated me as your sister. I am willing to use this agreement to exchange for a chance to stand by your side, even if it is only in name."

Every word she said was sincere, but Cheng Ji didn't care at all.

That’s the deal for him.

No, it's more of a one-sided deal achieved through coercion.

He opened his thin lips and said in a cold voice, "Li Yang, prepare a prenuptial agreement."

After saying this, he turned around and left Qin's house with unquestionable determination in his steps.

Qin Qianyue stood there, looking at the figure walking away, her eyes reddened, and she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

......

Life goes on as usual.

It was three days later when Shangguan Qing found out that Cheng Ji was going to get married.

Mu Cheng walked into the antique shop in a suit, took out the wedding invitation and handed it to her.

She glanced at him, then opened the invitation and quickly smiled with relief, but she couldn't help but reveal a trace of disappointment in the corners of her eyes.

I saw it written on it:

[Groom: Cheng Ji; Bride: Qin Qianyue. Sincerely invite......]

There was also a photo of the two of them on the invitation, they looked quite a good match.

A talented man and a beautiful woman, they are childhood sweethearts.

She put down the invitation with a bitter smile on her face, "It's good that someone is with him."

A good ending.

Mu Cheng took the invitation and said faintly, "I would like to invite you to attend Cheng Ji's wedding as my female companion."
