Chapter 118 - Engagement (4) (2/2)

Yun Xuan forgot about inviting Yun Jifeng to her engagement party and left the house. Actually, she had fled at top speed. If she had wings she would have flown instead.

What did her father mean ”marry Lu Aotian for a year but not get pregnant, it would be enough time for him”?

So he was not trying to really matchmake them for marriage but for a temporary marriage?

The main issue was he was a man with a fiancée. How could her father still want her to be wife? She was also engaged for that matter.

That wasn't all. What was he planning to do?

Marry for a year? Who does that?

As long as she helped him? Helped him do what?

Then she could divorce and marry who she wanted?

What in the world?!

Yun Xuan took a whole lot of water to calm her spinning brain and chose to ignore her father's words. He had said that he was giving her time to think about it. What was there to think, huh? About how she was supposed to betray her man and her best friend by seducing and marrying Lu Aotian? There was definitely something wrong with the way she had entered the Yun mansion.

She took a deep breath and called Wan Jia.

At southside Villas,

the 'boring' Lu Aotian was sitting on the sofa reading a business magazine as his cheeky woman teased him. Little Jia, as usual, had insisted on remaining in the old residence for a day.

She had nothing to do in Southside Villa apart from play and eat anyway, so they let her stay a little more.

Wan Jia made funny faces at him when she saw how absorbed he was in reading those complicated business statistics and achievements of legends in the business world. She found such things terribly boring.

”What's so nice to read there? How are those boring things more beautiful than me?” she asked when he didn't give her any reaction no matter how many animal faces she made.

”How are you more beautiful than them?” he asked back.

Wan Jia took a while to understand him and slumped beside him angrily. Did he mean she was uglier? She looked at him miserably then looked down like she was about to cry.

Lu Aotian reached out to rub her head. ”Don't cry. Don't you know you're the most beautiful thing that has ever graced the earth?”

Wan Jia was about to throw a mock tantrum when her phone interrupted.
