Just Signed It

Ye Jiayao clarified, "What? You're going to use me as your shield?"

"You don't have to sound so surprised," Xia Chunyu said, rolling his eyes. "After the contract expires, we can just divorce. Anyway, people in Jin Ling already knows that you're mine. Even your ancestral home recognizes me. This deal just makes sense."

Ye Jiayao doesn't really think so. In fact, she actually felt insulted.

"What if I do not agree?"

Xia Chunyu thought about it for a moment before saying, "Then the Heavenly Residence would have to be given as a gift to Princess Liu Li. I will announce your real identity and let you return to your family in Yang Zhou. Oh, and I'll dismiss Zhong Xiang and the others and hire my own workers."

She wasn't even surprised that Chunyu resorted to baiting her like this.
