Contract Marriage (4)#

Since both parties had reached a consensus, Lu Yi said, “Where do you live?”

Yu Ke stared at him with wide eyes, adding a touch of innocence to his somewhat alluring phoenix eyes: “Huh? Why ask that all of a sudden?”

“If you brought your household registration booklet when you came out.”

Oh right, marriage seemed to require a household registration booklet: “But for prenuptial property notarization, would my assets also need notarization? Then I’d have to go get proof documents?”

Yu Ke was taken aback, still wearing that spring-like smile. “Sorry, but… who are you?”

The implication was clear: while he himself had been thinking of the other person day and night, that person hadn’t even bothered to remember him. When trading barbs, nothing is more infuriating than not being engaged in a proper comeback battle—losing a fight is one thing, but it’s another when your fist hits cotton, when the other party doesn’t even acknowledge you, doesn’t even know who you are.

Lu Yifang’s hand slipped on the steering wheel, his expression slightly subtle: “No.”

He didn’t turn to look at Yu Ke, but from the corner of his eye, he could see the young man’s handsome face clearly showing deep disappointment: “But Mr. Lu, providing you with harmonious married life is one of my duties as your wife, isn’t it?”

Lu Yifang continued: “The rules I previously stated do not include this clause, nor will it become part of your job scope.”

After settling the person in the study, Lu Yi went downstairs. When he came down, Mrs. Lu was speaking gently to Fang Chuan’s mother, Qin Lan. She had been very angry, but since Lu Yi had taken this approach, she still hoped to resolve the issue peacefully, so her words were not as blunt as they had been that morning. Instead, she spoke with hidden meanings, one trap following another.

Lu Yi considered for half a minute before replying, “Alright.”

“Actually… wait, what did you just say? Alright?” Yu Ke had been prepared for rejection and was about to present Plan B, but Lu Yi’s crisp, straightforward answer left him dazed.

“I said alright.” Compared to Yu Ke’s earlier feigned innocence and cuteness, Lu Yi genuinely preferred this unexpected, candid reaction from him.

The corners of Lu Yi’s lips curled up slightly. “As long as it’s a reasonable request, I’ll consider it.”

When Lu Yi pressed down, he whispered, “Close your eyes.”

The other party obediently closed their eyes, their crimson lips slightly pouted, ready for the kiss.

The two were very close, so close that the other’s long eyelashes could brush against his cheek. In his eyes, the other’s magnified face was reflected, and then came a brief union of lips and teeth.

Very soft lips, carrying the scent of lemon mint that he liked. The temperature was just right, very sweet, perfect for kissing.

Ten minutes later, Lu Yi politely saw the other person out of his room, finally gaining some peace.

From learning of Fang Chuan’s disappearance to finding a suitable replacement groom and arranging everything, it took him only fourteen hours.

Every step went exactly as he had anticipated, except for one small hiccup concerning Yu Ke.

Fingertips resting on the spot where the two had touched, Lu Yi thought to himself that perhaps he had been too indulgent with the other party. Over the coming year of living together, he should probably be more mindful of maintaining proper boundaries.

The person who interrupted the wedding was none other than the groom who had been replaced at the last minute, Fang Chuan. Seeing her son appear, Qin Lan’s forced smile finally turned genuine.

The guests recognized Fang Chuan and began whispering among themselves. The journalists, sensing a big story, snapped several photos of this travel-worn yet handsome young man.

Lu Yi’s parents looked very displeased. Both fathers lowered their voices to ask their wives, “What’s going on?”

Confronted by her ex-boyfriend and his mother, Yu Ke quickly leaned over and gave Lu Yi a loud, smacking kiss on the mouth.

Qin Lan’s delicate features twisted even more. She had originally wanted to demand whether Lu Yi had done this on purpose, but Yu Ke’s move completely threw her off track, making her forget her original purpose. All she could do was glare viciously at Yu Ke and curse, “Shameless!”

Lu Yi raised his head, looked at the face close to him, and bluntly spat out two words: “Not at all.”

Yu Ke’s tone carried a hint of disappointment: “Not even a little bit?”

Lu Yi didn’t answer the question but instead asked Yu Ke, “Speaking of which, you were Fang Chuan’s first love, after all. Young love, and yet you show no mercy when bickering with him. Did you two end things horribly back then?”

Lu Yi glanced at the fabric sofa in the living room: “There should be extra quilts in the wardrobe.”

Right now, his bedroom was covered with the wedding gift that Mrs. Lu had given him—bright red, especially festive.

After all, it was his mother’s goodwill, and for good luck, he chose to use it. Once the wedding was over, he planned to put it away and replace it with his own set.

The wailing “mother” Wang immediately shut up. He looked at his son, his expression somewhat embarrassed: “Everything was fine, why suddenly talk about divorce?”

Whether it was man and man or man and woman, in their village, getting a divorce meant being laughed at. The gossiping men and women in the village would snicker behind their backs.

His son was capable—had a master’s degree, bought an apartment in the big city, and married a spouse from the big city whose family had money.

With his parents’ support, Qiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Qiao added, “But as for your job, you don’t have to quit just because of Wang Cheng.”

After all, the only reason Wang Cheng could climb up was that Qiao Yi’s uncle was looking out for him. Wang Cheng came from a rural background and wasn’t a local; he had zero influence in the area. Unless he was stupid, he wouldn’t cause a big scene at Qiao Yi’s company over something like this.

The two of them were still newlyweds. If they went back to the bedroom, they would have to sleep together. Qiao Yi really didn’t want to lie in the same bed as Wang Cheng, so he didn’t go back. He stayed in the study all night, and when he was extremely tired, he just fell asleep on the desk.

When he woke up the next morning, Qiao Yi glanced at the clock—it was already nine o’clock. Luckily, it was the weekend, so sleeping in a little wouldn’t matter much.

The man Wang Cheng had greeted stopped in his tracks and looked back at him, replying with a hint of uncertainty, “Wang Cheng?”

A smile broke out on Wang Cheng’s face. “It’s me. Are you free? We haven’t seen each other in so long—how about we find a place to sit and chat?”

The young man nodded. Ten minutes later, the two of them were seated by the window in a milk tea shop. A cup of coffee sat in front of Wang Cheng, while the young man he called Yu Zhao had ordered a glass of lemon juice.

“Sure, please wait a moment.”

After waiting two minutes, Qiao Yi smoothly obtained a steaming hot hand-grasped pancake.

He had been intently watching the vendor skillfully flip several pancakes, and only when it ended did he realize that the number of people around him had suddenly grown particularly large.

Frowning, he squeezed out of the crowd with difficulty. Qiao Yi thought to himself, if he ever passed by here again, he definitely wouldn’t come to this stall—who knew why there were so many people.

To be honest, Qiao Yi was quite picky about food. The taste of the meat-filled flatbread was downright unbearable. After just two bites, he couldn’t eat any more. He sealed the paper bag and waited to get off the car to toss it into a trash can.

Lately, besides learning to drive, he had also spent a considerable amount of his spare time studying the laws of this country. Regardless of the industry—whether one wanted to do good or bad things, handle marriage or work—knowing the law always gave an advantage over those who didn’t.

Yu Zhao stared at the ring, momentarily at a loss. But one thing was for sure: the doorway was indeed not a suitable place for conversation. The man before him exuded an air of wealth; even a single piece of his clothing might cost more than all of Yu Zhao’s belongings combined. If a scene broke out, it wouldn’t be Yu Zhao who suffered.

He stepped aside to let the other in. “Come in.”

Yu Zhao was still feeling gloomy. He forced himself to muster some spirit: “How do you want me to help?”

“How about being a professional lover?”

Yu Zhao refused without a second thought: “No way.”

Before he knew Wang Cheng was married, he could still feel a little flutter. Now that he clearly knew the other party was married, how could he possibly agree to become his lover?

The corners of Qiao Yi’s lips lifted slightly. “Since I’m asking for your help, Mr. Yu, naturally I won’t have you work for nothing. How about this—if you’re willing, free up your time tomorrow from 2:00 to 5:00 PM for me.”

This time slot was during Wang Cheng’s work hours, and ordinarily nothing unexpected would lead him to seek out Yu Zhao. It was perfect for discussing matters.

“But Mr. Qiao, I’m afraid I can’t do it.” Yu Zhao had agreed earlier and wouldn’t go back on his word, but doing something like this was a first for him. He naturally worried that he might mess up and end up delaying Qiao Yi’s plans.

It was precisely this kind of honest person who could easily fool others when they lied. Qiao Yi patiently coached him: “Your mother is sick. That’s a fact, right?”

Over the following ten-plus days, Yu Zhao maintained this thrilling state whenever he contacted Qiao Yi. It wasn’t until the day before Qiao Yi’s business trip to City D ended that Wang Cheng finally achieved a major breakthrough.

He took out a bank card and handed it to Yu Zhao. “There’s a million yuan in here. Take it for your auntie’s use.”

Yu Zhao looked at the card, his emotions complicated.

Wang Cheng began to make moves on the family’s assets. Although the Qiao family didn’t appear to have much money on the surface, Qiao Yi’s parents had given him a very generous start-up fund.

Beyond that, there were also the Qiao family’s current house and car. These real estate assets could all be used as collateral for certain projects.

If he were to divorce Qiao Yi, this money would become joint debts of the couple, to be borne by both of them.

When he heard “malicious transfer of premarital and marital property,” Wang Cheng’s heart skipped a beat, but he comforted himself that even if they knew about the transfer, the other side probably couldn’t produce evidence.

In civil lawsuits, the one who asserts must provide proof. If the evidence was insufficient, the court wouldn’t support Qiao Yi’s claim at all, and he could even countersue Qiao Yi for defamation.

Wang’s father was startled by the voice, but once he recovered, he wailed even louder. The young man in the hoodie directly pulled him up from the ground, grabbing Wang’s father by the collar, his tone fierce: “What are you howling about? This is a courthouse. You don’t have a single scratch on you. If you keep howling, I’ll sue you for harassment and have you sent straight to the authorities!”

Qiao Yi unbuckled his seatbelt. “You just sit in the car and wait for me five minutes.”

Yu Zhao obediently nodded.

In less than three minutes, Qiao Yi came out carrying a small plastic bag containing cotton swabs, alcohol, and iodine.

Yu Zhao was a bit surprised. “Aren’t you going to take me to a clinic to get it looked at?”

If all he needed to do was buy these things, he could have done it himself. Besides, there was a pharmacy right outside the courthouse. He found Qiao Yi’s behavior of going far instead of near a bit odd.

Although Yu Zhao said he could take the bus back, in the end Qiao Yi insisted on driving him to his place.

After the car stopped, Yu Zhao grabbed his things and said, “Alright, just drop me off at the entrance. You should head back first.”

His room was a mess, completely untidy, and he really couldn’t bring himself to invite someone up.

Qiao Yi didn’t say anything more. He watched Yu Zhao leave, then pulled out another phone.

After finishing his confession and succeeding, Yu Zhao was heady with excitement for a while. When he calmed down, he saw Qiao Yi looking at him with a smile. His face, which hadn’t fully lost its flush, turned bright red again.

Actually, back when Wang Cheng had pursued him for a while and proposed dating, he had agreed. But back then, it wasn’t like this—it didn’t give him this dizzy, unreal feeling of floating on clouds.

Li Tang, who had been so affectionate just moments before, froze on the spot. He never imagined that the man who had once been willing to die for him would one day treat him like this.

Whether it was playing hard to get or something else entirely, Li Tang—who had been pampered and praised since childhood—immediately wore an ugly expression.

Seeing this young master Li lose his temper, a slightly shrill female voice rang out in the ward, which was thick with the smell of disinfectant: “Child, what are you getting angry about? Mom knows you’re unhappy, but you can’t just vent your anger randomly.”

Li Tang looked at the neatly packed items of his, then at Lu Yi with a pained expression: “Can’t we just part amicably? Do you really have to be so ruthless?”

Lu Yi gave him a look as if he were an idiot. He could hardly believe Li Tang had the nerve to use the phrase “part amicably.” In a cold voice, he said, “Are you buying or not? If not, I have business to attend to.”

Li Tang backed down under the gazes of these three people. If he were to stubbornly clash with them, it was uncertain who would win or lose. The problem was that he was still holding things in his arms, and the enemy had numerical superiority. So he could only cast a disdainful glance at the few of them and said, “I don’t want this junk anymore. I’ll just give it to the cleaning lady! Consider it charity for the poor.”

To make Li Tang feel the same pain as him, even if only temporary, was incredibly difficult.

Lu Yi had considered that if Li Tang was juggling multiple relationships, not all of them could be after his money. There would always be one or two foolish ones—like the original owner, for instance.

If the boats capsized, Li Tang’s life would surely become unpleasant.

But finding all these cheating partners was no easy task. Besides, those who had attended college were all adults; they knew what kind of man they had chosen deep down.

Lu Yi: …He felt he had played the piano badly enough, and he had even hit a few wrong notes. Why was he still considered at a level where he could be a teacher?

Looking at Teacher Rong Huan, whose expression had suddenly changed, he chose honesty: “I’ve learned piano before, but I never got a certificate. I came here to study mainly to get one. I prefer to leave related work to the professionals.”

Rong Huan didn’t take this sentence seriously when he saw it. After all, many people advised him to try finding someone—his parents, his relatives. He replied: It’s not that easy to find a boyfriend. If finding a boyfriend were as easy as making money, there wouldn’t be so many single people in the world.

After typing that line, he also sent a meme from the “Care for Single Dogs Association.” Young people nowadays seemed to really like using memes. To keep up with trends, Rong Huan, this “older generation” guy, had also collected hundreds of memes from colleagues who loved sending them, just to make himself look younger.

Li Tang’s reaction was quite undignified. Among the four people present, three were in the know, leaving only Rong Huan in the dark. He looked at his young nephew, then at Lu Yi, slightly bewildered: “You two are very familiar with each other?”

If it were just an ordinary acquaintance, Li Tang wouldn’t have lost his composure like this.

The “himself’s” ex-boyfriend turned out to be a close friend’s nephew. That lowered the other party by a generation, which sounded absurd, but when he carefully recalled the details of their interactions, there were many clues that matched Li Tang.

Even after starting a relationship with a boyfriend, exams couldn’t be neglected at all. Thanks to his prior foundation, Lu Yi passed the exams easily and obtained the relevant certificates. Next came the matter of signing up for level-based certification.

For him, music would certainly never be the entirety of his life. Although he loved it dearly, in this lifetime, he still leaned more toward being an entrepreneur rather than a musician. However, to find more common ground with his boyfriend and to fulfill an old dream of his own, he still wanted to continue pursuing higher levels and strive for a performance-level certification.

Rong Huan was very unhappy when he heard this. He had finally managed to get a boyfriend, and now they were telling him to break up? Why should he? If his father’s words were so effective, then back then, it wouldn’t have been the other party who yielded, but himself bowing to his father’s authority.

After all, he was his biological father. Rong Huan held back his anger and tried to speak calmly: “Dad, weren’t you the one who hoped I’d find a partner? So why now that I have a boyfriend, are you forcing me to break up?”

Old Master Rong repeated the words he had just spoken: “What do you mean by that?”

If before this his tone had been more puzzled than accusatory, now this sentence carried more of a warning edge, cautioning Lu Yi not to speak nonsense or spout reckless words.

Lu Yi was not the least bit intimidated by Old Master Rong’s warning: “I mean exactly what I said. Your grandson, Li Tang, and I are the same—both of us harbor intense romantic feelings between men for your biological son, Rong Huan.”

From Lu Yi, he learned that Li Tang liked Rong Huan, and it wasn’t just ordinary liking. He didn’t confront him immediately but instead recalled carefully, discovering that his cheap grandson might really be coveting his own grandson.

Then, he went directly to see his stepson, visiting the Li family, demanding that his stepson hand over all the keys to Li Tang’s room.

The couple was reluctant, but Old Master Rong could be considered the family patriarch. Thinking it wouldn’t be anything serious, they sold out their son.

After Lu Yi returned to the country, he followed Rong Huan to visit the Rong family’s old mansion. In just a year or two, the boyish immaturity had faded from him, replaced by a more mature and steady demeanor.

Although Old Master Rong still wouldn’t verbally relent, he didn’t take any harsher measures either. He simply told Rong Huan to stay longer at the old mansion, saying, “Don’t forget your old man just because you’ve got a man.”

This kind of situation‌ didn’t seem to appear in Li Tang’s script. Lu’s father first felt a pang of guilt, but quickly became emboldened. What was so special about Lu Yi showing up? If Lu Yi came, it would be even easier. He was Lu Yi’s biological father, and a son was supposed to listen to his father!

When Lu Yi received the call, he was originally discussing some business matters with someone.

The internet’s memory is short. Although Li Tang worked hard to smear Lu Yi, Lu Yi wasn’t a celebrity or idol, so no matter how much he was dragged, at most it would just invite public censure.

His real-life friends understood Lu Yi and wouldn’t easily believe those inflammatory words. Those who weren’t close to Lu Yi and had no stake in it wouldn’t be foolish enough to play moral crusaders either.

Rong Huan didn’t even think before saying, “No.”

“Li Tang already owes me and Lu Yi an apology, but I hope you understand—whether he apologizes or not, it won’t change any decision Lu Yi and I make.”

Rong Huan took a deep breath, his expression tinged with sarcasm: “Your son’s flippant apology isn’t that valuable. Instead of coming here to persuade me to change my mind, you’d be better off working hard to win over those old men on the board. Maybe, if they see how sincere you are, they’ll change their minds.”

He paused and said: “You were just inside and didn’t see. The guest in 409 was just surrounded by a bunch of media, and the guest in 409 is He Xiao.”

This sudden marriage came really fast. It wasn’t until he sat in the driver’s seat of his own car that Kong Si finally accepted the fact that he had transformed from an unmarried person to a married one.

He was about to say something when a ringtone interrupted his impending words.

Earlier, during the hospital check-up and the wedding photos, Lu Yi had turned off his phone to avoid any sudden ringing. Now, as soon as he turned it back on after getting into the car, a call came through immediately.

However, since this was joint property of the couple, he still needed to discuss it with the other party before using it.

Unsure if the other person was resting, Lu Yi thought for a moment and decided to wait until tomorrow to talk to him.

Star Media & Entertainment Co., Ltd. was also established in memory of the original owner, Lu Xingchen. After all, the original owner’s true dream was to become a movie king, standing on a star-studded stage, remembered by everyone.

Lu Yi was really not good at acting and had no talent for it. After some thought, he decided this was the only way to commemorate the other person.

In the past, Kong Si basically did everything with one account, one phone number, linked to one QQ account, one WeChat account, and one Weibo account.

But after becoming the artist Yu Si, the company gave him two additional phones, with all the corresponding accounts handed over entirely to his agent to manage and craft his favorable image, preventing him from accidentally letting something slip.

“Likes men? Who told you that?” He Xiao had thought his agent was going to break some particularly shocking news, but he never expected it to be about the other person’s sexual orientation.

He Xiao’s agent, Zhao Qian, said, “I naturally have my own reliable sources. In short, that Yu Si has someone backing him, and it seems to be his man.”

He Xiao asked Zhao Qian, “His man? What do you mean? Is Yu Si being kept, and the one keeping him is a man?”

Star Media Company had been established for over half a year, but for this newly emerging media company, it was still in a period of rapid development. Lu Yi had limited energy and had to also focus on family matters, so he temporarily put aside other investments and concentrated on developing Star Entertainment wholeheartedly.

On typical workdays like today, he basically worked in his office. If Kong Si had filming tasks and couldn’t be by his side, Lu Yi would choose to work overtime even on holidays.

Kong Si’s eyes widened. “Do you mean… he lied to me?”

He recalled what He Xiao had said before: “He said he used to be thin, but then had issues with hormones and later lost weight again. Could it be because of that?”

It wasn’t that he was deliberately defending the other party; rather, he thought it would be too strange for someone to use something like that to deceive. Besides, He Xiao had indeed provided many specific details.

Ever since Lu Yi had given him that dossier on He Xiao before, Kong Si had become more cautious of He Xiao in his heart. He didn’t care what the other party’s purpose was or why he wanted to get close to him. Since he was full of lies from the very start, he was definitely not well-intentioned without a doubt.

Even if the other party was merely ill-intentioned and had not yet done anything to harm him or those around him, Kong Si only had his manager pay more attention. If the other party made a move, he would immediately retaliate with double the force.

He Xiao posted on Weibo to clarify for Kong Si: The actor Yu Si is very dedicated and respects his seniors. The two of them have a good relationship privately. It’s possible that the show’s editing caused a misunderstanding. Following this, he also @ actor Yu Si, and then posted a picture under this clarifying Weibo, which was an old photo of Kong Si.

Kong Si flipped through those photos. The chubby kid in the pictures gradually overlapped with the person in his memory. “Right, this person seems to be the one I saved back then.”

The high school Kong Si attended was a key provincial school. Because its soft and hard power were both up to par, the school became a pilot for the Education Bureau’s quality-oriented education initiative. At the time, they ran many clubs, and the student council was run quite properly.

Kong Si read through those records twice. The more he read, the angrier he got. He was so angry he wanted to throw his phone, but as he held it up, he thought, this is my phone, why take my frustration out on my own stuff? That’s just a loss.

Lu Yi was originally in the study reviewing Star Media’s quarterly financial statements. He got thirsty, came out to get some water, and saw Kong Si pacing anxiously in the living room, phone in hand. He asked, “What’s wrong?”

Seeing that he was in a much better mood, Lu Yi also felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders. “Actually, if you really can’t stand him, there’s no need to go to so much trouble.”

Star Media hadn’t yet risen to the pinnacle of the industry, but because several of the shows they’d selected had become massive hits—especially the kind of nationwide hits that skyrocketed—they had quickly established a foothold with their strong financial backing.

Perhaps what Lu Yi had said earlier gave Kong Si a sense of urgency; his drive for career success surged, and he resolved not to be the man behind the big shot, but rather the company’s cash cow.

With such ambition, Lu Yi was naturally willing to invest heavily in Kong Si. Over the past year since the company’s founding, Star Entertainment had signed numerous artists—new talents and A-list actresses who had terminated contracts with other companies—but none could match Kong Si’s status.

He Xiao absolutely couldn’t believe his eyes. He told himself that this must be Kong Si doing publicity stunts—wasn’t it common for many artists? Strange keywords would trend, and upon clicking in, it would turn out to be an advertisement.

Or maybe it was a TV drama, or an investor-bought trending topic. In this case, it should be Kong Si starring in some drama and marrying a female co-star in the plot.

The trending topic about him was tied together with Kong Si.

He Xiao’s first reaction upon seeing the trending topic was that his own work team had bought it. Otherwise, who would be so kind as to send him to the trending list?

As he clicked on the topic, he dialed his agent’s number. The moment the call connected, he launched into a furious tirade: “What are you guys doing? Didn’t I say before not to ride on this popularity? Are you trying to make me crash and burn even faster?”

He Xiao was very lucky. When he first entered the entertainment industry, he had a good appearance, and just as the company planned to nurture new talents, his signing gift was the lead role in a youth drama series.

That show became a huge hit. Among the seven or eight newcomers in the same batch, all with significant screen time, only two or three became famous, and He Xiao was one of them.

Kong Si was planning to retire from the entertainment industry—this wasn’t a joke, but something he had carefully considered and discussed with his beloved.

During this period, in order to win the coveted Best Actor award, he had put in tremendous effort. For example, to meet the role’s requirements, he had rapidly gained weight in a short time, then desperately worked to lose it again.

The contract between Kong Si and Star Media was for five years. He had only worked for the company for less than four years when he decided to retire, causing Star Media to suffer a very significant loss.

Back then, the contract Lu Yi had arranged for Kong Si had the most favorable terms, and over the years, the company had indeed invested a considerable amount in him. According to the original contract, if he were to retire from acting at this point, it would be considered a breach of contract, and he would have to pay a hefty penalty of up to ten million yuan.

He Xiao tried to contact his agent, but the call didn’t go through. He asked the doctor, who looked at him with a surprised expression: “Your agent was sitting in the driver’s seat and was seriously injured—didn’t you know?”

He Xiao genuinely hadn’t known. He was certain this was his own body, his own name and appearance, but it was completely different from what he remembered.

Kong Si stared at the broccoli for a long time, attempting one final struggle: “Can I skip it?”

He hated eating this stuff more than anything. If it weren’t for Lu Yi liking it and it being relatively healthy and nutritious, he would never have bought such ingredients to cook.

Lu Yi neither said yes nor no. He glanced at Kong Si without speaking, and in the end, Kong Si still ate that piece of broccoli, which to him was as good as poison, with a bitter expression as if facing a great enemy. While eating, he cursed himself—the last sentence wasn’t important at all, why did he have to say it? Really asking for trouble.
