Chapter 425 She doesn’t deserve it
The four large, bold characters suddenly appeared in Zhou Yi's eyes without warning.
Zhou Yi was stunned.
He was stunned on the spot.
She looked at the four big characters "marriage agreement" and thought she had misread it.
She stared blankly for a while, then her long eyelashes fluttered as she carefully examined the words, making sure she hadn't misread them, before looking at Wenren Chen.
A marriage agreement?
what is this?
Wenren Chen kept staring at the fair-skinned person under the lamplight. At this moment, those clear eyes looked at him with confusion and bewilderment, not understanding anything.
He said, "Let's see."
Zhou Yi was now like a doll, doing whatever her master wanted her to do. Wenren Chen's three words made her obediently lower her head and look at the small bold text below.
Party A: Wenren Chen; Party B: Zhou Yi.
Upon seeing her own name, Zhou Yi's confusion deepened, and her heart raced.
She read Wenren Chen's words.
Wenren Chen didn't say anything more, but his deep eyes clearly told her to keep watching.
She looked away, lowered her head, and continued reading.
As night deepened and all was quiet, a profound stillness permeated the villa, both inside and out.
There was no sound in the study except for the occasional rustling of pages turning.
Zhou Yi looked at the document in her hand. As she read it word by word and turned the pages, the document became incredibly heavy in her hands.
So when she turned to the last page and finished reading it, she wanted to give the document to Wenren Chen immediately.
However, she couldn't move.
Her fingers gripped the document tightly, her large eyes staring blankly at Wenren Chen.
There was no response.
Wenren Chen had been staring at that obedient and well-behaved face, but now it looked blank and bewildered, as if it had been frightened.
She opened her mouth and said, "I am busy with work and cannot be by Yuyu's side often. He needs a mother who truly loves and cares for him, so that his grandparents will be at ease."
“Yuyu likes you very much and only wants you. You have taken good care of him, so I am at ease, and my mother is at ease too.”
The magnetic voice, like a pebble dropped into a calm lake in the night, clearly reached Zhou Yi's ears, clearing away his muddled thoughts.
She hurriedly waved her hands, saying, "Sir, I can't."
"I can not."
"Your status is so high, even though it's just an agreement, I'm not worthy of it."
"You can find someone else, such as Miss Dong."
"Miss Dong is a very nice and kind person. She also likes Yu Yu very much. When she learned that my grandmother was sick and hospitalized, she even called me to say that she could help me. Miss Dong is really a very nice person."
“Beautiful, and a perfect match for you, sir.”
"I can't, I can't."
As she spoke, Zhou Yi quickly placed the folder on the coffee table, as if putting a glittering gem back; she couldn't take what didn't belong to her.
When Wenren Chen heard her say, "Miss Dong knew that Grandma was sick and hospitalized, so she called me specifically," his deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "She doesn't deserve it."
Zhou Yi was astonished, her lips parted, speechless with surprise.
The gentleman said Miss Dong was not worthy?
how come?
Miss Dong is so beautiful, so gentle, kind-hearted, and from a good family. Standing next to Mr. Dong, they are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman.
The gentleman said he was unworthy, but Zhou Yi did not understand.
Wenren Chen gazed at her: "No one is more suitable to be my wife than you, Zhou Yi."
Zhou Yi's lips parted and closed, but she couldn't speak.
Looking into those eyes, which were like a deep sea shrouded in ink under the night sky, her heart pounded wildly, filled with panic and confusion.
Although it was a marriage of convenience, she was not good enough for her husband.
Even if the marriage is fake, it's still not a good match.
It's like putting a top-quality jade next to a small blade of grass; no matter how you look at it, it's a desecration of the jade.
She didn't want her husband to suffer like this, even if it was for Yu Yu's sake.
Zhou Yi waved his hand and shook his head: "Sir, I..."
"Let's get married, and I'll earn ten million a year."
"..."
Zhou Yi was stunned, but quickly waved her hands even more vigorously: "Sir, no, I don't want money. I just feel that marrying me is an insult to your status. I know you are doing this for Yu Yu, but you shouldn't be humiliating yourself like this."
"Can we wait a bit? Yuyu went to a wedding banquet today, and he wasn't shy at all. Really, Yuyu will definitely be able to..."
"Zhou Yi".
Wenren Chen interrupted her.
Zhou Yi stopped speaking and stared blankly at Wenren Chen.
Wenren Chen stared at her, then opened his mouth and said, "I don't have that much time to look for others, nor do I have the energy."
“I choose you, we will be husband and wife in name only, and I will not do anything to you other than that. This is an agreement, a contract, so you will receive your due compensation.”
"Think this over carefully. I need an answer by tomorrow morning."
"..."
Zhou Yi's voice was hoarse.
He couldn't utter a single word.
The gentleman wasn't looking for a wife; he only wanted to find a mother for Yuyu, a girl who could take good care of Yuyu, put his mind at ease, and relieve the old lady's worries.
In his eyes, Yu Yu's choice was more important than anything else.
Everything else is unimportant.
Zhou Yi lowered her head, clasped her hands together, her fingers intertwined, and her brow furrowed.
She understood what her husband meant, but she felt it was wrong to be his wife.
Zhou Yi unconsciously bit her lip, her face clearly showing that she didn't know what to do.
Looking at her like this, Wenren Chen raised his hand to check his watch and said, "It's getting late, you should get some rest."
Hearing his words, Zhou Yi looked up at him, her lips parted: "Sir, could you wait a little longer? There must be other girls who are more suitable for you later?"
"..."
Wenren Chen remained silent.
Looking into his deep, unfathomable eyes, Zhou Yi quickly said, "Sir, I think there must be good girls out there, definitely. You're so outstanding, so handsome, so capable, you must..."
Wenren Chen opened his mouth and said, "I thought you understood my current situation well enough."
Zhou Yi was stunned.
Wenren Chen's eyes sharpened at this moment: "Grandma, your condition, Yuyu, me, after this past month, you still can't understand?"
Zhou Yi's heart began to pound violently, and many images flashed before her eyes.
Grandma suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized for treatment. My brother followed her around, working tirelessly and getting exhausted. Yu Yu's husband also went to great lengths, traveling from Yunzhou City to Shancheng and back again. Even the old lady quickly arranged blind dates for him, and he made time for it.
The contract the gentleman is giving her now is one that can solve all the problems.
They got married, so the old lady would no longer arrange blind dates for her husband, Yu Yu would no longer suddenly become anxious and irritable, and could grow up healthy and happy, allowing her husband to work with complete peace of mind.
As for Grandma, her brother no longer needs to travel back and forth, or even return to Shancheng. She no longer needs to be introduced to potential partners or consider the possibility of leaving Grandma one day through marriage. As long as she takes good care of Yuyu and Grandma is healthy, everything will be fine.
It was a marriage of convenience, just a marriage of convenience...
At this moment, Zhou Yi's heart began to waver.
"consider properly."
The deep voice reached his ears, and Wenren Chen got up and returned to his desk to continue his work.
When Zhou Yi heard his words, she looked up at him and saw this tall and imposing man walk past under the lights. He had a powerful aura, a cold demeanor, and a deep and wise face.
He doesn't act on emotion; he only chooses what is most advantageous.
He didn't care about money.
He doesn't care about his reputation.
He only cares about the result he wants.
Zhou Yi clenched her fists, looked at the document, and then stood up.
