"Wow, such a fragrant scene. It seems I arrived at the wrong time!" Ogi Ruisheng pushed the door open and, upon seeing the male and female leads entwined on the sofa, kissing passionately, he laughed and teased.
Xinran heard the laughter and abruptly pushed Mu Shaosi away, her face flushed to the point of almost exploding. She glared at the instigator in front of her, biting her lip. This detestable man! She truly lacked self-control; once she got close to him, she lost all sense of direction. Her lips were definitely swollen from his kisses, and not to mention being mocked by his lawyer friend in front of her—how would she face anyone when she went out later?
"Ogi, you're here," Mu Shaosi stood up to greet his friend, subtly giving Ogi Ruisheng a knowing glance.
"Young Master Si, do you want to continue? If you do, I'll step aside!" Ogi Ruisheng joked as he glanced at Xinran before walking over to Mu Shaosi and patting him on the shoulder.
"Stop wasting time and get down to business!"
"Since Young Master Si has spoken, I will naturally comply!" Sitting on the sofa, Ogi Ruisheng took a folder from his black briefcase. He opened it and laid it on the table for Xinran to see.
"Miss Xia, this is the contract I drafted based on Young Master Si's instructions. I believe Young Master Si has already informed you of its general contents?"
"Yes, I already know," Xinran nodded. Based on what Mu Shaosi had told her earlier and a quick glance at the contract, she thought that Mu Shaosi was indeed trustworthy. At least the first clause clearly stated that they would divorce after three months. However, she felt she should ask his lawyer friend to add a few more clauses—such as he couldn't act recklessly or take advantage of her within those three months...
"That's good to hear. However, according to standard practice, I still need to inform you about the consequences of breaching the contract. After all, this is a legally binding agreement. Once both of you sign it, it becomes effective; it's not something that can be casually changed or discarded!" Ogi Ruisheng pointed at the title of the contract and said solemnly to Xinran.
"Alright, go ahead. I'll listen carefully."
On the other end of the sofa, Mu Shaosi habitually swirled the golden liquid in his glass. His deep-set eyes were fixed on Xinran as he waited for her to sign her name on the contract. Once her name appeared on that document, she would be destined to become his woman—there would be no escaping him for a lifetime!
"The contract states that within three months, you are not allowed to leave my party without permission, nor can you propose a divorce or express any intention to leave. Furthermore, as my party's wife, you must fulfill your responsibilities as a wife and cannot refuse any requests made by me, as you also have the duty to engage in a normal marital life..."
Listening to Ogi Ruisheng's explanation, Xinran felt her face growing warmer. That despicable Mu Shaosi, while stating that he would allow a divorce after three months, was clearly not someone who would willingly suffer losses. All those words from the lawyer were merely to inform her that during these three months, she must accompany him in bed whenever he felt 'interested,' as it was her duty as a wife!
What a grandiloquent statement! If she weren't so familiar with this man's domineering and malicious nature, she might have been deceived by his typically cold and indifferent demeanor!
"Lawyer Ogi, you don't need to say any more. I will sign it. I will abide by all the terms in this contract and will never breach it. After three months, I won't cling to Young Master Si if I don't want a divorce. Is that acceptable? Can I sign now?"
"Of course!"
Thus, Xinran no longer hesitated. She picked up the pen beside her, removed the cap, and within seconds, the beautiful name 'Summer' appeared in the party B section of the contract.
"Miss Xia, both you and Young Master Si have signed. Therefore, this contract will officially take effect from this moment!" After Mu Shaosi elegantly wrote down his name, Ogi Ruisheng picked up the contract and said to Xinran once again with seriousness.
"I understand! Is this enough? Don't we need four copies? Or should you draft a prenuptial agreement or something similar to prevent anyone from saying I covet Young Master Si's vast fortune when we divorce in the future?" Xinran leaned back against the sofa and said lightly.
"I'm not worried about my assets. If you want them, I can give them to you right now!" Mu Shaosi said with a soft laugh as he took Xinran's hand and kissed the back of it. "My fiancée, tomorrow you will become my wife!"
Xinran shot a sidelong glance at Mu Shaosi, trying to pull her hand back.
"Well... I won't disturb your sweet moment any longer; I'll take my leave!" Ogi Ruisheng smiled meaningfully, picked up his briefcase, and left the private room.
