92 Lets Have a Deal (2/2)
Yang Qiu Rei: ”How about I change the deal? I won't kill him, and you won't have to poison him either. You just have to marry and keep the bedroom alive so that he will listen to everything you say. All you have to do is be a good daughter in law and wife without blackening my reputation. In exchange, I'll agree to whatever conditions you want other than getting any money and land property from me. What do you think?”
Ya Nuo thought about it for a bit, ”That depends on how the man treats me and if he is acceptable. I'm tired. If you're done, get out.”
She covered herself with the blanket signaling how much she hated talking to him. Before he walked out of the room, he said, ”Oh right, your future husband wants to meet you personally at a restaurant first before deciding on the engagement party. I already agreed for you on your behalf. You better play along and not embarrass me, or I'll take my rage out on the maids and butlers while you're present. Remember, anything you wish for can come true if you take up my offer. If not, I'll make everyone's life a living hell, especially yours.”
After he left, Ya Nuo got out of bed and sat on the swinging chair that is facing the bed.
'If I agree to please the guy whom I'll be marrying, then I can put out the request for Guo Guo and everyone else to be freed from their lifelong contract. Hmm, this is harder than I thought because knowing him, he won't easily hand over those contracts. He will have to see some proof in order to believe in me too. I guess I'll have to wait till after the dinner.'
/Day of the dinner meeting
That afternoon, Ya Nuo was forced to do a spa and massage by a professional. All her body hair was waxed and special soothing hydration body cream was applied to her entire body. She had a facial and makeup done. After the facial, her former great skin looked even smoother and poreless. The only thing that the makeup artist had to do was draw her eyebrows, apply a light shade of eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, and lip tint. Ya Nuo had a great side profile so she only needed slight touchups. Since her skin was near perfect, she didn't need any foundation or coverage, which makes it easier to do the rest of the makeup.
After everything was done and she finished getting ready, Yang Qiu Rei walked her to the car and reminded her, ”If you dare play any tricks or say anything wrong tonight, the maids and butlers will suffer.”
They got there half an hour ahead of the meeting time and Ya Nuo sat at the emptied table. She felt utterly uncomfortable because she could feel the obvious spies in the restaurant who were watching her every move.
Fifteen minutes later, the restaurant door opened slowly and a man in an expensive suit with a black tie. He was holding a bouquet of roses and walked towards Ya Nuo's direction. When he reached the table, he smiled,”I thought I was early, but you came earlier than me. This is our first meeting, I'm Xu Huan Hei. Nice to meet you.”
