Destiny
Chapter 3 The Contract
?Xia Chen clenched the pen tightly in his hand and stared at the 'contract marriage' form on the table. Even though he understood that he had to sign this name, when he really wanted to sign at the signature place, his hands shook so badly that he couldn't do it.
Lao Chen, who was entrusted by Mr. Li, has been waiting for Xia Chen to sign the name. Although it has been said just now, it will take a little effort to sign the name after seeing the situation.Carefully pay attention to every move of Xia Chen's face, unwilling to write all over his face, Lao Chen also understands this pain point, but... Life is full of twists and turns.
"Mr. Xia, forget it, I'll call you Xiaochen, I know what this contract means to you? But child, sometimes you can't control it, and you can only accept it when you can't resist fate. This contract will do you and your siblings no harm."
As Uncle Chen said, this contract is really harmless to him and his younger siblings. Xia Chen forced a smile and said, "Uncle Chen, I know, I understand what you mean." After hearing the 'joke' the old man said to him about being his granddaughter-in-law, he understood that this was already destined.
The regulations written in the contract are exactly the same as what the old man told him, without any changes, healed his sister's heart disease, provided his brother and sister with expenses until they graduated from college, and provided all supplies and expenses after the contract was broken .Except for the cost of curing his sister, his other projects will only take effect after someone makes a decision, so what he has to do now is... Wait, wait for the old man's grandson to make a decision.
"Xiaochen, you just need to wait. If his lover shows up at the engagement scene, you don't have to fulfill the above contract. If he doesn't show up, then you have to marry my grandson. Of course, the deadline for this marriage is a After one year, you only need to come to me with this contract, and I will agree to any request you make, so this is also a bet. '
Xia Chen opened his eyes, looked at the pen in his hand and the contract on the table, and recalled the last words the old man said to him, "You can treat me as using you, and grandpa also feels very sorry for you, Xiaochen, grandpa assures you , if you really come to use this contract, during this year, no one will disrespect you and your younger siblings, and it will be guaranteed that no one will disturb your younger siblings' lives. "Xia Chen didn't want to sign, but now he had to, because he could wait but his sister couldn't.
With a pen in his hand, he quickly signed his name at the signature place. Lao Chen picked up the contract in his hand, looked at it, nodded to Xia Chen, and said gently: "Go and see your sister first. I'll go back to my life first." Xia Chen stood up and watched Lao Chen leave the room. In an instant, his body slumped and sat on the ground, his arms buried his head between his legs, and he quietly listened to the ticking of the clock in the room. sound.
Lao Chen returned to the lounge where Mr. Li was with the signed contract, and handed the complete contract form to Mr. Li. Mr. Li stared at Xia Chen's name, unable to recover for a long time, "Old Chen, will you You'll think I'm mean, taking advantage of such a kind and ignorant child."
"master……"
"I think that I, Li Guangrong, have struggled in the mall all my life, and my children and grandchildren are full of people. I have never done anything against my will. Today, I still use such shameful and despicable methods. It's really..."
"Master, don't you always say that the world is impermanent, who would have expected to come to this point, you did this for Young Master Yan, I think Young Master Yan will definitely understand your good intentions."
"Hmph, I'll feel at ease if this kid doesn't cause trouble for me." Looking at the contract form in his hand, his anger turned into a sigh, "Oh, it's just that this kid is suffering, Lao Chen, make arrangements and prepare to return to City B , Arrange Xiaochen's affairs properly and bring Boy Yan back to me."
"Yes, I'll make arrangements immediately." Lao Chen turned around and arranged various tasks, leaving Li Guangrong alone in the room with his eyes closed and resting, while the contract marriage form was still intact on Li Guangrong's shoulders. Glorious legs.
Xia Chen rested in the reception room for a while before coming out to her sister's ward. Standing at the door of the ward and hearing laughter, Xia Chen's hands trembled a little, trying to control the restlessness in her heart, took a deep breath and changed into a gentle one. With a smile, he opened the door of the ward.
"Xia Xi, is your health better?"
"Brother, I'm fine, brother's injury is nothing to worry about!" Xia Xi was worried, but Xia Chen smiled and touched his head to comfort him. Xia Yang, who was on the side, was more sensitive to things, so he asked under the smile of the other party, "Brother, is it right?" what's going on?"
Xia Chen stared at Xia Yang with a look of surprise, and finally stretched out his hand to flick Xia Yang's forehead, "What are you thinking, what can happen in the hospital?"
"Brother, don't lie to me. I saw the old man who helped us just now. Did he come to you, say something, and ask for something?" The excited Xia Yang affected Xia Xi, and lowered his head in self-blame, " Brother, is it because of my illness..."
Xia Chen was a little surprised that Xia Yang would be so smart, but he must not let his younger siblings know about it, so the two heads ping-pong, showing a trace of dissatisfaction, "Xia Xi, this matter has nothing to do with you, and Xia Yang , The other party is someone who helped us, how can you suspect someone who has graciously favored us, I don’t remember teaching you this way.”
Although Xia Yang has a very violent temper and agitation, he is very obedient when facing his brother Xia Chen. He never disobeys Xia Chen, let alone refute anything Xia Chen, so after Xia Chen put on a dissatisfied expression He lowered his eyes and showed an apologetic expression, and said, "I'm sorry."
The good atmosphere was froze by him, Xia Chen really felt a little sorry, after all what Xia Yang said was true, stretched out his left and right hands, touched the heads of his younger brother and younger sister, raised a gentle smile, and said, "Don't worry, No matter what happens, I will protect you."
"Brother..." Xia Yang and Xia Xi shouted together, complaining about their incompetence in their hearts, and made up their minds to make their brother happy in the future. The three different hands were tightly clasped together, never leaving, smiling Although Xia is uneasy, he can feel happiness, the happiness that only the three of them can experience.
After lunch, Xia Yang and Xia Xi took naps in the ward one after another. Only Xia Chen stood outside the ward and talked to Lao Chen. The two briefly talked about what happened afterwards and what happened to their stepmother Fan Yimei. After the news that he was going to jail under criminal detention, he still couldn't help being surprised.
"That's about it. Three days later, we will leave for City B, and we probably won't be returning here in the future, so if there is anything you want to take away, I'll arrange for someone to bring it over for you."
"Then ask Uncle Chen to help me deliver a red iron box."
"The red iron box? I see. You...you better talk to your younger siblings about the situation." Xia Chen nodded, turned around and went back to the ward. At this time, Xia Yang also woke up from sleep.
Xia Chen patted Xia Yang's head with a smile, turned around, picked up an apple from the table, washed it, and handed it to Xia Yang. Xia Yang happily took the apple, "Xia Yang, we have to leave here."
"Leave? Where?"
"City B." Xia Yang was a little astonished. City B is a big city in China, and its level of prosperity is not a place where rural people like them can go. Why are these words all over Xia Yang's face.
Xia Chen stretched out his hand and pulled the quilt covering Xia Xi's body, and said softly: "I can't tell if Xia Xi is here just now, you should know that Xia Xi's body can't be dragged anymore, so the sooner the surgery, the better, but this The cost is not something you and I can afford, so we want to thank Grandpa Li for helping us." Xia Yang knew who Grandpa Li was, and after thinking about it, he stood up, "You really agreed to the other party's conditions, didn't you?"?
Lao Chen, who was entrusted by Mr. Li, has been waiting for Xia Chen to sign the name. Although it has been said just now, it will take a little effort to sign the name after seeing the situation.Carefully pay attention to every move of Xia Chen's face, unwilling to write all over his face, Lao Chen also understands this pain point, but...
