Chapter 53 – Contract Couple (Part Two)

The conversation opened up at this moment, and Ye Yunxi couldn’t contain her excitement: “But it can’t be achieved in just a few decades. Are you planning to remain celibate for life?”

Di Junxie couldn’t help but laugh. His smile was faint yet beautiful, appearing so unreal amidst the swirling smoke, fleeting in an instant.

He had never discussed such topics with girls before.

Those women who gathered around him only talked about clothes, jewelry, movies, and fashion—none of which were things he cared for.

Why does the Imperial Sword exist?

How can families prosper?

When all this loses its original meaning, the Imperial Sword is no longer what it used to be!

“I need more people to join me in realizing this dream. Yan Country isn’t just my homeland alone.”

“That’s true.”

The two chatted back and forth, discussing wars and everything under the sun. As night fell, the sea and sky merged into a deep black, with the coastline lights becoming the most beautiful embellishment. The night grew late.

Yet neither wanted to leave.

When they eventually ran out of things to say, the atmosphere returned to its previous silence. However, this silence wasn’t awkward; instead, it felt like reuniting with an old friend—even without words, there was warmth.

“So.”

Di Junxie stubbed out his cigarette and slightly raised his head: “Three years. In three years, you’ll be twenty, the perfect time to pursue your youth. During these three years, give me everything you have—become my fiancée!”

The man’s words carried immense authority, as if he wasn’t negotiating terms but issuing a military command!

Ye Yunxi curled her lips, twirling her jet-black hair with her fingers. She only smiled without speaking.

“What are your conditions?”

Ye Yunxi smiled, turned her head, her beautiful eyes sparkling like stars in the most magnificent galaxy.

“Three points. First, only your family and relevant personnel need to know about this. I don’t want outsiders to know, including my family.”

“Agreed.”

“Second, in public I’ll act deeply affectionate, but in private, all close contact is prohibited.”

Di Junxie hesitated for a moment but still nodded: “Agreed.”

“Third.”

Ye Yunxi smiled: “I want you to star as the male lead in a movie for me!”

Di Junxie: ……….

Was he hearing things??

Did someone actually ask him to be the male lead?!

Hah, must be from talking too much tonight—his ears must be ringing!!

“If you don’t agree to the third condition, then the first two are void!”

Di Junxie: …

Not hearing things—it was actually real!

“You, want me, to be the male lead in your movie?”

Di Junxie enunciated each word carefully, feeling like this couldn’t be real.

Was he going crazy, or was this woman insane??

“Yes, exactly you!”

Ye Yunxi laughed heartily, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and waved: “Tomorrow evening, come to my place. I’ll introduce you to the director and cast. Well then, see you tomorrow!”

So that’s how it was. No wonder he was talking about girlfriends and other misleading things early in the morning—turns out his family had such rules?!

Every family really has its own traditions!

She should be thankful for this family rule, otherwise how could she have found an opportunity to secure this male lead??

With someone of Di Junxie’s status, forget about playing the male lead—even asking him to make a cameo appearance would probably make him smash the camera!

So, this was quite the bargain!After walking quite a distance, Ye Yunxi finally burst into laughter.

Who told you to insist on chasing after her, Ye Yunxi!

This is the price you pay for refusing to let go!

Just obediently be this lady’s Lead Actor!
