章 92: Contracts are Important

"Dad, are you still there?" Xue Ning asked cautiously, sensing that her father had fallen suspiciously silent and that was never a good sign. Did she upset him enough that he was going to pass the phone back to her mother so she could finish yelling?

"I'm still here, Xue Ning," her father replied, sighing again, "And I know that you're an adult who can make your own decisions."

Xue Ning thought that that was the end of it, but then her father continued warningly. 

"While I cannot stop you from making friends, please, just make sure you are ONLY friends. That 'wife' title better be only a slip of the tongue."

"Of course! It's all fake!" She insisted, even if Sun Jingwei was trying his best to make it a reality. 

She had to remind herself that she only knew him for a really short time. She had to be careful - Xue Ning didn't want to end up used and discarded.
