"Grandpa-"

"You don't give me too many excuses, Xiao Long. Grandpa already knows everything, about not having your marital status taken care of in the state civil registry, about you not including Qiqi's name in our family name, and most importantly," Xiao Chuan glanced at Xiao Long. It managed to make Xiao Long fall silent. "Your marriage, you make like a contract marriage, which will end when Grandpa dies. Is what Grandpa said true?"

Xiao Long was silent, and he didn't expect his grandfather to find out what happened so soon. How could that be? Xiao Long and Qiao Xin were so guarded against even so well had to be exposed at this close time. Xiao Long lowered his face, and then he looked at his grandfather with an extremely curious look. How did his grandfather know? Or who told his grandfather about all this? All the questions piled together unpleasantly.

"You must be wondering right now, Grandpa knows where or who told Grandpa," Xiao Long immediately gasped. Even his grandfather knew what his heart and brain were thinking.

"I think Grandpa was a psychic," he lamented later. Xiao Chuan seemed to smile at the words that came out of Xiao Long's mouth.

"Grandpa didn't know this at first until one night Grandpa accidentally saw your bedroom door open when I saw what happened? I saw you and Qiqi sleeping separately in a very inhuman way. How can you make a woman who is your wife sleep downstairs while you sleep comfortably on your big bed? Isn't that big bed of yours more than enough to sleep two or seven of you? From there I was very shocked, and I felt that your marriage was in trouble. And at that time Grandpa tried to ask the civil registry office, it was true that your names were not listed in any records, not registered as a new married couple, and when I saw our family certificate was still with the old certificate, you were even your right hand has no intention to take care of the deed. Because Grandpa was very curious, Grandpa finally tried to investigate, and it was true that you two married just because of Grandpa. A contract marriage that ends when one of you falls in love or when Grandpa is dead. Do you really expect Grandpa to die soon so that the contract will end soon?"

"Grandpa-"

"Don't worry, Grandpa will do the best that Grandpa can to keep you alive for a long time so that you both continue to be in the marriage bond no matter what. Even if Grandpa is ordered to do dialysis hundreds of times, perform operations a thousand times, Grandpa will do it as long as Grandpa stays alive and you two become a real husband and wife. Now, Xiao Long I want to ask you something, I hope you answer it very honestly, after all this thing Grandpa has known."

"Please just ask, Grandpa. I will also answer honestly, besides it seems like it would be useless to lie in front of you, everything will be in vain."

"You brat!" Xiao Chuan was about to hit Xiao Long, but he immediately restrained him. Xiao Chuan seemed to be sighing, looking at his grandson with an extremely annoyed look on his face. "Listen, Grandpa, you know Qiqi is a very kind and sincere woman. Grandpa met him first when he wanted to end his life, he was very fragile and depressed with his life, with his girlfriend and all. Grandpa thought at first maybe he was exaggerating, but it turned out that he had told Grandpa everything. How pitiful she had been all this time, and Grandpa finally knew that she wasn't a bad woman. Even though we just met, you also know what Grandpa is like, Grandpa is a typical person who is difficult to get close to outsiders, but Qiqi makes Grandpa feel so close to death. After Grandpa investigated further, it turned out that she was a very independent and strong woman, that's the reason Grandpa asked you to marry Qiqi. Not because without reason, it's because seeing your character who is very stubborn and tends to be rebellious, a female character like Qiqi will be very suitable for you. What else did Grandpa wish for? Her background is very clear, she is kind, and her face is beautiful too. So, don't ever think that Grandpa asked you to marry Qiqi just because Grandpa wants and likes her. But what Grandpa is doing, Grandpa has considered carefully. Now, Grandpa wants to ask you as a man and another man. What do you think about marriage? why are you toying with marriage in this way? Wasn't all this time when Grandpa asked you to get married, you were the one who was always stubborn and said if you want to get married once, respect the marriage because marriage is a very sacred bond, that's why you want to find a partner that you really love because you don't want to make the wrong choice. in choosing a partner? So what are you doing here?"

"Because I don't love Qiqi, Grandpa. I don't love her at all, she doesn't love me either. It could even be said if we both hate each other. So how do you think Grandpa can get two people who hate each other involved in a real marriage bond? Isn't that something completely impossible? Qiqi is not my type at all, she is a very annoying woman, she is a woman who can't manage how to be beautiful in front of people, an ancient woman, a woman who is completely unattractive in my eyes. I can't even think about how my days will be spent with her, the point is I don't love her at all, and I married him too because I don't want Grandpa to be disappointed, I want to make Grandpa happy. That's nothing more."

Xiao Chuan looked speechless, and then he smiled faintly. Seeing his grandson, who is so stubborn about discussing matters of love and love, is a very dilemma, especially since Xiao Chuan knows that Xiao Long doesn't believe in love at all.

"Xiao Long, now I want to ask you again. What do you think, after you got to know Qiqi how was she? Is she a good woman?"

"Not bad, even though she often makes a fuss about me rather than being nice to me," Xiao Long replied.

"Now what do you think Qiqi lacks?"

"Lots. That's a lot," Xiao Long answered quickly, looking at his grandfather with a big smile.

"Has she ever hurt you?" asked Xiao Chuan. Xiao Long seemed speechless. "Did she ask you for a lot of money in this marriage?" Xiao Chuan asked again. Xiao Long was silent again. "Did she ask for recognition as the Young Lady of the Han family as long as she was married to you?" Xiao Long now looked at his grandfather. "Did he act rich during her marriage to you and turn her appearance into a glamorous one? Asking you to buy expensive things because her services have been willing to marry you for Grandpa's sake to be happy?"

Xiao Long couldn't answer the question, and he didn't even expect his grandfather to ask him such a question.

"Even if you hate her, even if she's not the type of woman you can fall in love with, even if she looks too old-fashioned and always fights with you. Despite all that, Qiqi is the only woman who doesn't take advantage of you, she doesn't take advantage of your position as CEO of the Han Corporation, she doesn't take advantage of you as the sole heir of the Han family. Do you think you can get a woman like that again? No, Xiao Long. Look and reflect, every woman who is close to you. Do you think they like you for who you are? As Xiao Long? Even if you had your handsome face without this gap if you weren't Han Xiao Long, all the women chasing after you would never be willing to be with a poor man. It was Qiqi's distinct strength that couldn't even be compared to other women. You've found the diamond, no matter how much you hate it right now or whatever. but Grandpa is sure, one day over time that feeling will grow slowly but surely. Don't think if Grandpa forced you, Grandpa used to marry your grandmother because of an arranged marriage when your grandmother was much older than Grandpa. But what is the evidence? Grandpa and Grandma loved each other and took care of each other until your grandmother died. That's called love because love doesn't always happen just because of first sight. It could be that love comes because you are used to being together. Think about it carefully, Xiao Long. Grandfather will give you one month, to make a decision on the matter of applying for your marriage in the state civil registry and entering Qiqi's name in our family members."

"But she doesn't want to, Grandpa," Xiao Long replied in the end. "From the beginning, Qiqi was the one who asked not to register our marriage in the civil registry. because she didn't want to be difficult just because when we divorced she still had traces of the Han surname in her life."

"You can do it without her knowing right? After all, you are legally husband and wife, what's wrong with that?"

"You need her autograph too, right?"

"That problem Grandpa can manage,"

Xiao Long was silent, and then he took a deep breath. He never thought that his grandfather was even crueler than him.

"Okay, one month. I will answer Grandpa, everyone."

"And one more thing, I hope you do it right away."

"Especially? I think it's all clear now, Grandpa," Xiao Long huffed. He was like a figure that many people suspected nowadays.

"Grandpa wants to start tonight, you two sleep in the same bed, without any reason!"
