Chapter 404 - 403: I’ve been sold out

Chapter 404: 403: I’ve been sold out

Ye gasped for air as he kissed her face, eyes, and lips.

Posession, entanglement.

He plundered the breath that belonged to her.

Xing Ling was overwhelmed with such a stimulus early in the morning, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

Her body softened for a moment and then tensed again.

Just as she was trembling and about to collapse, Ye Sihan retracted his hand and said with a hoarse voice, "It’s time to get up."

"..." Xing Ling breathed rapidly and then really saw Ye Sihan lift the covers and get out of bed, leaving her to fend for herself.

She curled up uncomfortably and felt too embarrassed to speak out.

Because it was she who had said that she hadn’t fully recovered from the concussion.

She could only endure and slowly calm her racing blood.

After coming downstairs, she saw the quadruplets sitting on the couch in the hall, uncharacteristically quiet.

Xing Ling watched Junjun, Zhengzheng, and Haohao dressed in little suits, wearing gentleman’s bow ties.

Xibao was in a princess dress, little leather shoes, and even her hair had been curled.

Cute and pretty.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Xing Ling was surprised. "So formal."

Ye Sihan next to her said, "We are having guests today at home."

"Who?" Xing Ling was puzzled. What kind of guest would cause the quadruplets to dress up like this?

Ye Sihan held her in his arms, "You’ll know when they arrive."

"Mommy, we know, but we can’t tell!" Haohao said.

Xing Ling couldn’t help but laugh, you might as well not have said that.

Thinking of something, she asked, "Should I change my clothes too?"

She was dressed too much like she was at home.

"No need, come on, let’s have breakfast."

"Have the kids eaten?"

"They have."

In the morning, Xing Ling and Ye Sihan accompanied the quadruplets at the entrance, where they all tied red bow ties around the necks of their penguins.

Xing Ling found it amusing and took out her cellphone to take pictures.

After only a few shots were taken, the cellphone was taken away by Ye Sihan.

He pulled Xing Ling into his embrace, pressing her against him.

Looking into the camera lens, with a click, he captured a photo of the two of them.

Xing Ling looked at the photo of her and Ye Sihan on the phone, feeling a strange emotion in her heart.

This was their first photo.

If the ones taken with the quadruplets were not counted.

It was as if she was a bystander enjoying the view.

Ye Sihan’s gaze was unmistakenly intense; he didn’t seem to be looking at the camera, but rather at her in the camera.

While she was looking at the photo, Ye Sihan was looking at her.

The look in his eyes was the same as in the photo, so tender.

The sound of a car engine in the distance caused Xing Ling to raise her head and then she saw the two men getting out of the car.

"Big Brother? Second Brother?" Xing Ling came to her senses and turned to Ye Sihan beside her, "You don’t mean they are the guests, do you?"

Ye Sihan simply smiled without saying a word, just pulled her hand and together they stood up to greet them personally.

When Xing Ling saw her eldest brother looking at her, she immediately withdrew her hand from Ye Sihan’s and bowed her head like a child who had done something wrong.

Despite being a child of the Xing Family, it always seemed like she was being protected by Ye Sihan, as if she could be bullied by her Xing Family brothers.

The quadruplets were both well-behaved and smart, calling out to their eldest uncle and second uncle.

Xing Tian even brought valuable gifts for the quadruplets.

When Xing Ling saw the gift Xing Tian gave to Xibao, her eyes widened, "That... that’s the Queen’s Crown I’ve always wanted, isn’t it?"

Xing Tian had acquired it through various channels, a not inexpensive piece, displayed in a glass cabinet at home.

Xing Ling really wanted to wear it, but Xing Tian said it was for display only!

Good lord, and then you turn around and give it to Xibao?

Who’s your sister here, hey!

Just because Xibao called you "Uncle" in her sweet little voice? Or because she kissed you on your face?

"Big Brother, you usually won’t even let me touch it!" Xing Ling huffed.

Ye Sihan squeezed her hand, smiling, "I’ll buy one for you."

Xing Ling thought to herself, there’s only one Queen’s Crown in the world, where are you going to buy it?

But even so, she still felt delightful inside.

After lunch, Xing Ling, Xing Yanjie, and the quadruplets were playing in the living room.

The penguin also ran in.

The table was laden with various pastries, as well as coffee and fruit juice.

Xibao was feeding the penguin with pastries.

Xing Yanjie took out the crown and placed it on Xibao’s head.

He kept praising how good it looked.

"Can I wear it?" Haohao asked.

Xibao took the crown off her head and put it on her brother’s head.

"I am the king!" Haohao posed assertively.

Xing Ling touched her nose, too embarrassed to ask to wear it herself.

But her mind was elsewhere at the moment; she pulled Xing Yanjie aside, "What are Brother and Ye Sihan doing in the study?"

"Talking business, probably!"

"Did you and Brother come here to discuss business?" Xing Ling thought, unable to think of any other reason. "Did you tell Brother about me and Ye Sihan? Is he angry?"

"A grown daughter can’t be kept at home, being angry is useless."

"What are you talking about..." Xing Ling pouted.

She felt a bit guilty as well.

She had already pledged herself to Ye Sihan, what should she do?

If he knew, would he be even angrier?

Inside the study.

Ye Sihan placed an agreement on the coffee table in front of Xing Tian.

Xing Tian held it in his hands, flipping through a few pages, "Won’t reconsider? Once divorced in the future, you would end up penniless."

"I won’t get divorced."

"Xing Ling has lost her memory, that’s an uncertain factor."

"If one day she wants a divorce, then it must be my fault."

Xing Tian scanned the contents of the contract again, which, aside from material wealth, even took care of Xing Ling’s mental state.

If Xing Ling suffered the slightest harm, Ye Sihan would bear the primary responsibility.

This was absolutely a tyrannical clause for him.

And yet, he proposed it himself, covering all the bases.

"Have you regained your memory?" Xing Tian’s gaze lifted from the agreement.

Ye Sihan did not deny it, "Relax, I know what I want."

"And what about Tang Yu?"

Ye Sihan was silent for a moment before speaking, "I owe her, and I’ll spend a lifetime repaying it. Besides, you don’t have another choice."

"Of course, her heart is all set on you. If I forcefully take her away, she would be heartbroken. I am very dissatisfied with your deceiving tricks," Xing Tian said.

"If you have any other conditions, you can propose them now," Ye Sihan said.

Xing Tian pulled out a household registration book and threw it on the coffee table, "Add one more clause, if divorced, all four children will belong to the Xing Family."

"Agreed," Ye Sihan said, then picked up the household registration book.

He flipped through it.

He saw Xing Ling’s page.

And so, the agreement was struck, and he left the study.

In the afternoon, Xing Tian went to the branch office.

The next morning, Ye Sihan took Xing Ling to the civil affairs bureau.

When Xing Ling saw the household registration book, she was surprised, "Where did this come from?"

"Your brother gave it," Ye Sihan said.

"What? Was I sold?"

Ye Sihan’s dark eyes brimmed with laughter as he kissed her soft lips, "I persuaded him."

"That impressive?" Xing Ling was still incredulous.

Her family was strict about her dating life, how could they have agreed so easily to her marriage to Ye Sihan?

Was this the charm of power and status?

After all, if she married Ye Sihan, it would definitely be beneficial for the Xing Family.

"Looks like I’m not entirely useless to the Xing Family," Xing Ling said seriously. "By marrying into each other’s families, we’ll make even more money in the future?"

"Right."
