Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 168
Chapter 168 Why Do You Think You Can Forbid Me to Sign It?
Nina pushed the agreement in front of Yuan Lian and said, “This is the agreement I wrote. Take a look. If there’s no problem, sign it and then we can make an appointment to register for marriage.”
Yuan Lian was a twenty-two-year-old young man who had just reached the legal age for marriage. He had only attended high school and worked in a repair shop. Because he came out to see Nina today, he had specially made a fashionable hairstyle and wore a grey short coat to make himself look more elegant. He never dreamed that his cousin would introduce him to such a beautiful woman. Although she was pregnant and was a few years older than him, she was really beautiful, especially those big watery eyes. As long as she raised her eyes to look at her, his heart would pound nervously, and his palm was also sweating from nervousness.
He knew very well why Nina had agreed to marry him, but he was confident that after they got married, he would treat her well, treat her child well, and move her with his sincerity. Nina was so beautiful. There must be a lot of men who chased after her. No matter what happened to her before, he didn’t care. Not long after, the names of her and her child would appear in his household register. They would become a family. That was what mattered to him.
Yuan Lian read through the agreement roughly. He was completely absent-minded. He didn’t care what was written in the agreement. In any case, he had made up his mind that as long as he didn’t agree to get divorced, Nina would be his wife and the child would have to call him father. He wanted to firmly keep this gorgeous beauty by his side.
He nodded, “I think this can do.” As he said that, he picked up a pen smilingly and wanted to sign it.
Things were going so smoothly that Nina felt a little insecure in her heart. It was as if a step forward would lead to the Abyss, and she would never have a chance to survive. She pressed down on the pen and looked at Yuan Lian with her bright eyes. “Have you thought it through?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve thought it through. I want an extra house, and you want the child to have a nominal father. Wasn’t it all agreed beforehand?”
It was agreed, indeed. Nina released her hand from the pen and withdrew it inch by inch. However, her heart was cold. The world in front of her seemed to have faded into black and white. Everything was dim and colorless. This was the end. There was no excuse to turn back now.
She comforted herself in her heart that she was going to get married anyway. Others may take years to do this and have babies, but she would do both in only a few months. She would get married and have a child in one breath.
Yuan Lian signed his name without hesitation and pushed the paper and pen in front of her, “I have signed it. It’s your turn.”
Nina picked up the pen and read through the agreement carefully from beginning to end, making sure that there was not even a single mistake in the punctuation. Her gaze finally landed on Yuan Lian’s signature. She could tell at a glance that he had never practiced calligraphy when he was young. The strokes were rough and powerless, looking childish. What impressed her the most was Shao Boqing’s signature. Because she had to bring the documents to General Manager Shao every day for signing. When Shao Boqing signed, she stood by the side and watched. He held a golden pen, signing his name freely which was lively and vigorous in calligraphy. The pure gold tip of the pen slid past the paper, and it was a very pleasant voice.
Shao Boqing’s handwriting was powerful and elegant. It could be seen that he had painstakingly practiced calligraphy when he was young. Sometimes, when she was bored, she would imitate his signature. As she practiced it too much, her handwriting became quite similar to his. On one occasion, Shao Boqing saw her handwriting and teased her, “If I want to slack off in the future, you’ll be my sole agent. The signature you signed is really like my handwriting.”
She was so proud at the time that she smiled like a little fox with her face up, “I’m not going to sign the papers for you. I’m going to sign the cheque!”
Shao Boqing opened his eyes wide with exaggeration, “Well, I have to take care of my cheque book in the future. If you steal it, I’m afraid you’ll make me go bankruptcy.”
She laughed so hard that tears rolled down her cheeks. However, Shao Boqing did give her the cheque book afterwards and let her keep it.
After Zhou Ting found about that, she gave her a bad idea and said, “You can take ten or twenty thousand yuan to be the fund of having fun for us, Boss Shao will definitely not know about it. He will not say anything even if he knows. That is just a small amount of money to Boss Shao.”
She glared fiercely at Zhou Ting like a miser, “If you want to do that, take the money from your boss. Don’t try to steal money from my boss.”
On the surface, she seemed to be a seductive and playful sectary who loved joking around, but only she herself knew how loyal she was to Shao Boqing. Not only was she wholeheartedly taking care of the General Manager’s affairs for him, cutting expenses, and working diligently, but her body and mind were also completely loyal to him. Having many boyfriends was just a way to mislead others. It was only that night when the two of them acted wildly with the help of alcohol that she really had sex with a man for the first time. However, she did not expect that she would actually get pregnant only because of that night!
Seeing that she hesitated for a long time, Yuan Lian was a little anxious and said, “Miss Li, if you still need to think about it, then let’s do this next time…”
“No.” Nina smiled apologetically at him, as if she had suddenly regained her senses. “Sorry, I was distracted.”
She took a deep breath, held the pen, and wrote down her name earnestly.
Suddenly, a large hand reached out from behind and grabbed the agreement.
Nina turned around in astonishment. It was actually Shao Boqing. His face was as calm as the water surface, his gaze gloomy, and his voice was even piercing cold, “How dare you sign this!”
Nina seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but she frowned and stretched out her hand, “Give it back to me.”
Shao Boqing sneered. He raised the agreement and gently tore it in two. Then, he folded the two half together and tore it in four. Yuan Lian cried out in surprise, “You, what are you doing?”
Shao Boqing raised his eyelids and swept a cold gaze over, “If you’re a smart person, go back where you came from. Leave, quickly!”
Yuan Lian could tell that Shao Boqing was not an ordinary person, but he was also someone who would soon become a rich guy. For the sake of the beauty, he actually bravely stood up against Shao Boqing, “I, why should I leave? The one who should leave is you!”
Shao Boqing took a step closer to him and laughed instead of being angry. However, Nina knew that something bad was going to happen. Once this young master laughed, it meant he was extremely angry. So she hurriedly stopped Shao Boqing and said, “Don’t make trouble here!”
Shao Boqing shook off her hand and threw a punch into Yuan Lian’s face like lightning. Yuan Lian staggered backwards and retreated to a chair. With a clanging sound, he fell to the ground with the chair.
Seeing that there was a fight, the waiters and manager of the shop ran over. Nina was so angry that her face turned pale. She hysterically shouted at Shao Boqing, “What are you going crazy about?”
Shao Boqing’s expression was even gloomier than hers, and his voice was even louder. He almost shouted, “You’re going crazy!”
The others who had rushed over to stop the fight didn’t dare to step forward rashly under such circumstances. They only pulled Yuan Lian up from the ground and let him sit on the chair.
Yuan Lian was after all a vigorous young man. He had been humiliated so much in public. When he came to his senses, he jumped up and rushed over to hit Shao Boqing.
Shao Boqing and Nina used to come to this cafe frequently, and the staff in the cafe recognized them, so they grabbed Yuan Lian and stopped him from going forward. Even if he rushed over, he would still be beaten up!
Shao Boqing opened his red eyes and stared fixedly at Nina. Nina did not show weakness. Her beautiful eyes were filled with moisture, but she forcefully suppressed the tears. She also stared fixedly at Shao Boqing. Their eyes met in the air fiercely. Neither of them showed weakness. The air was filled with tension. It was as if only a little spark could ignite the extremely tense atmosphere.
The manager had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk up with a smile, saying to Shao Boqing, “Mr. Shao, calm down. Miss Nina is pregnant. She can’t get angry!”
Shao Boqing continued staring at Nina fixedly, turning a deaf ear to his words.
The manager then tried to persuade Nina, “Miss Nina, calm down. Being so angry is not good for the baby. If there is anything you want to say, just say it in peace. Mr. Shao is not unreasonable.”
“He is unreasonable!” Nina said angrily.
The manager intended to persuade her again, but his voice was covered up by Shao Boqing’s roar, “How am I unreasonable?”
“Why do you think you can forbid me to sign it?”
“I forbid it!”
“Then you’re being unreasonable!”
“I am being unreasonable. So what are you gonna do about me?”
The manager stood in the middle and listened to the two quarreling so childishly. He wanted to laugh, but he didn’t dare to laugh because the two protagonists were both so aggressive.
“Why don’t the two of you go home and settle this? Both of you are respected big shots. It’s not good to make such a big commotion. Mr. Shao, what do you say…”
Shao Boqing pulled Nina and was about to drag her out. Nina screamed and punched and kicked around, “What are you doing? Let go of me, you bastard! Let go!”
When a woman made trouble unreasonably, it would be really crazy. Shao Boqing only felt that she was so noisy. Without even thinking about it, he easily blocked her mouth with his.
Everyone present was shocked and gasped. One second before, they were quarreling and shouting about killing each other, but in the next second, they staged such a hot show. It was like two different worlds of ice and fire. The scene was so exciting that they wanted to scream out loud.
Yuan Lian was the one who was most stimulated. The beauty who was going to marry him got snatched away just like that, and he even had to watch helplessly when they kissed. It was really an unpleasant feeling to him. He shook off the waiter beside him and wanted to rush forward again, but was quickly grabbed by the two waiters. The manager saw that the brat was going to do something bad, so he winked at the waiter. Then Yuan Lian was dragged to the back warehouse and stayed there.
One of the waiters looked at him with admiration, “You’re so bold to hit on Miss Nina, brat. How do you dare to steal Mr. Shao’s woman?”
Yuan Lian sat on the chair, ill-affected. He looked at the two tall and strong waiters in front of him and asked, “Who is that Mr. Shao?”
The waiter said, “He’s the Gu Group’s General Manager.”
Hearing that, Yuan Lian almost slipped down from his chair. It wasn’t that he was frightened by the Gu Group, but that the Gu Group was the property developer who expropriated the area where his house was. Because of his making trouble, he probably wouldn’t be able to get what was due to him, let alone getting an extra house. Wouldn’t that cause more harm than good? He knew that ordinary people like him were no match for the influential rich guys no matter what. Shao Boqing could kill him just by pulling some strings, but he acted recklessly and even wanted to fight with him!
Rubbing his swollen face, Yuan Lian sighed sadly. What a dead loss. The beauty was gone, the house was also gone, and he almost stole the woman of the General Manager of Gu Group. This… Ah, he could only accept the bad luck!
