Chapter 342 – 5-year agreement! (1/2)
Dong Xuebing could not make up his mind.
“What are you thinking?” Xie Huilan placed her teacup on the table and asked.
“Err… nothing.” Dong Xuebing sat down on the sofa with a gloomy expression.
“Are you thinking about Yunxuan? What will happen to her if we get married? How are you going to face her? Right?” Xie Huilan laughed and narrowed her eyes. “You… you are a flirt and is not satisfied with only a girlfriend. Haha… but to put it more nicely, you are sentimental and value feelings. You like both of us and do not want to hurt anyone of us, right?”
Dong Xuebing nodded. Sentimental and value feelings are the right description.
Xie Huilan laughed. “You had thought too highly of yourself! If you are sentimental and value feelings, you will not flirt with other women after you got a partner!”
“You are right. I deserved to be scolded.” Dong Xuebing sighed.
“Alright. Look at your sad face.” Xie Huilan crossed her legs. “I had discussed with Yunxuan about this.”
Dong Xuebing was shocked. “What have you discussed with her?”
Xie Huilan laughed again. “Of course, it’s about marriage and our relationship issues. Do you think we have not done anything since that incident? We did not mention anything to you because we are afraid that your heart might stop again. Yunxuan and I had contacted each other many times and even met up twice in the past month. We had come down to a decision.”
Dong Xuebing swallowed his saliva. “… what’s the decision?”
“Do you want to know?” Xie Huilan turned her head away. “Call and ask her yourself.”
“Ah… please tell me.”
“You will know when you ask her.”
Dong Xuebing saw Xie Huilan refusing to answer him and picks up his phone cautiously. Today, his small iPhone felt so heavy. He looked at Xie Huilan and walked into the bedroom. After closing the door, he paced up and down for a while before calling Qu Yunxuan.
Ring… ring… Xie Huilan answered.
“Hello, Aunt Xuan. It’s me.”
Qu Yunxuan laughed. “Haha… didn’t you just called me this morning? I am about to sleep.”
“Aunt Xuan. Are you hiding something from me?”
“… what is it?” Qu Yunxuan replied after a slight pause.
“Sister Xie told me that both of you had discussed something.”
“Oh…” Qu Yunxuan paused for a few seconds and replied. “Didn’t she tell you about it?”
“She asked me to ask you.” Dong Xuebing got anxious. “Aunt Xuan. Please tell me now.”
There was a long pause, and it made Dong Xuebing more anxious and scared. After a few seconds, Qu Yunxuan said. “Both of you will get married first.”
Dong Xuebing could not believe his ears. “How can I do that? You… what about you…”
“I thought you had forgotten about me.”
“Sigh… I will never forget you. What are you talking about?”
Dong Xuebing was stunned. “Twice? What do you mean?”
“That means Huilan, and you will get married first. She is a Mayor and is from a good family. She can help you in your career, and this is something I cannot do. But five years later, both of you must divorce and get married to me. Then… after another five years… it will be up to you to decide. If you want to get back with Huilan, I will not stop you.”
“Five years? Marriage?” Dong Xuebing was speechless.
“Yes. Other than this arrangement, we can’t think of any other solution to solve our relationship issue. To be honest, I want to get married to you first. But Xie Huilan also wants to get married first. So, we made a bet on the first digit of the lottery a few days ago. I bet on odd, and she bet on even. In the end, the first digit of the lottery is 6, and she won. So… you can get married to her first. What do you think?”
Dong Xuebing’s mind is blank, and could not think about anything at all. “This… five years? Err…”
“You don’t like this arrangement?”
“No… but… but will this work?”
“Now, it is not about whether if this can work or now. This is the only solution. Do you think I want to wait for five years? Do you think I want you to get married to Huilan? Didn’t you say you want to get married to both of us?! Then tell me! What should I do?!” Bam… bam… bam… other than the firecrackers going off in Qu Yunxuan’s background, Dong Xuebing could also hear her hitting her bed. Qu Yunxuan is angry.
