Chapter 23: I can give you a stable home

Moved by Xia Jinqi's persistent words, Yan Jun turned his head to look at her once again.

The moment his dark eyes met that pair of sparkling and incomparably clear big eyes, Yan Jun felt his heart suddenly tighten.

It was a very strange feeling.

It was as if something soft had wrapped around his heart.

He could not push it away, he could not break free. It was soft, causing him to lose his center of gravity and feel as if he was floating...

Seeing that he did not speak, Xia Jinqi continued, "I don't know what you want, and I don't know how you view marriage. But I can tell you what I want."

"I've been disliked at home since I was young. The wounds on my body, big and small, are all because of my mother."

"I hope that this marriage can let me leave that home completely, so I want to marry you."

"As for you asking me how I think about marriage..."

"In my opinion, my parents' marriage isn't happy, and I don't have any yearning for marriage."

"But, if what you want is love, I'm willing to work hard to fall in love with you and become the appearance of the person you love deeply."

Speaking up to this point, Xia Jinqi felt that something wasn't right, so she explained again, "If you fall in love with someone else, we can divorce."

When he heard this, Yan Jun finally could not help but smile.

This woman had already thought of a way out of the divorce before she even got married.

She might not know that once this political marriage started, it would definitely rise step by step with her father, and it would never be broken.

Xia Jinqi waited for a long time, only to see the inexplicable smile on his lips.

Her heart was a little flustered. She was afraid that if he rejected her outright, then she would really have no way out.

If this marriage did not succeed, not only would she become the laughingstock of the entire city, she would also attract more disgust from her mother...

In that case, she could only gamble one last time.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Jinqi took a step forward and stood firmly in front of Yan Jun.

The two of them were only ten feet apart.

"You don't have to worry about what I think of your family's property. I can sign an agreement with you. After the divorce, I'll leave with nothing."

Yan Jun had already taken a few steps back, but he still didn't express his opinion.

Xia Jinqi's heart slowly sank.

The whistling sound of the wind by her ears became more and more impudent.

The milk in her arms gradually lost its warmth.

Just as Xia Jinqi was about to give up, Yan Jun finally finished smoking a cigarette.

His handsome face, as gentle as jade, did not have any change in expression. He only slowly opened his mouth. His voice was as clear as a stream in an empty valley, refreshing one's heart. "I can give you a stable home."

"Really?" She subconsciously raised her eyes and looked at him with eagerness and hope.

Yan Jun turned his head. With his well-defined fingers, he pulled out a cup of milk from her arms and brought it to his lips to take a sip.

He was used to drinking hard liquor and coffee. It seemed nice to have a change of taste occasionally.

"But, I need your loyalty and absolute position. Do you understand?" He leaned over and stared at her big, blinking eyes. His narrow and long Phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to see through her soul.

Position Xia Jinqi was stunned for a moment. Did he mean that he wanted her to support him unconditionally and stand on his side?

"Yes. I understand." She nodded.

After they got married, they were family.

She should have been on his side, shouldn't she?

Xia Jinqi looked so obedient, but when she saw Yan Jun's eyes, she had a question.
