Capítulo 25: ~About a simple wedding~
"Alright, I will agree to all the terms you put forward. After all, those requirements would be advantageous to me as well, no? That way, I won't have to go through all the hassle of getting a divorce and removing your name from Han's surname after we parted. Apparently, this idea of yours is brilliant, Miss Liu. Oh yeah, I just remembered. If Grandpa had given you a very strange nickname, and from now on I will call you by that strange nickname, Qiqi. I think it's a very silly nickname. I was totally touched by that. Hope you have a very pleasant day, Qiqi."
"So, can I get out of the hospital now?" Qiao Xin asked in the end. Being locked up in the hospital and being a prisoner there because of Xiao Long was annoying.
"Of course, I will have my confidants take care of all this. However, I only have one question. If you got out of the hospital, where would you go? That apartment wasn't yours anymore, right? The apartment you shared with your lover?"
Hearing this, Qiao Xin fell silent because she wasn't the sole owner. Even though she tried so hard to sell it and get the money, Qiao Xin would never earn a profit even though she has the right to half of its price. Qiao Xin knew who her ex-boyfriend was, a stubborn and greedy person. And what Qiao Xin knew, she would only feel like the most pathetic woman in the world because she would never get what she wanted at all, even if it was her right.
"I haven't even packed my things there," Qiao Xin whispered. Hearing this, Xiao Long stopped in his tracks, and was heartbroken every time he saw Qiao Xin sad. Xiao Long gnashed his teeth, then he took a deep breath.
"Pack up from the hospital, after that I will accompany you to pack your things from the apartment. And you can stay in my apartment for a while, before we get married."
"No, I do not want to."
"Why not? It is better than sleeping on the street. I don't want to have a homeless wife-to-be."
Hearing this, Qiao Xin couldn't help but remain silent. She looked at Xiao Long without saying anything. Qiao Xin took another deep breath, and then she turned her face away from Xiao Long.
"Are you going to tell Grandpa about the clauses that I proposed? Or should I tell Grandpa by myself?" Qiao Xin asked. The two of them were now walking side by side, catching everyone's sight. Xiao Long seemed confused by this.
"You haven't properly cleaned yourself, no? It smells like trash here. You look really messed up too." Xiao Long said.
"I take a shower, and I don't have my makeup on. You got a problem with that?" Qiao Xin asked very innocently.
"You're kidding, right? There is no way I would believe that" Xiao Long sneered. He really couldn't believe it. Qiao Xin had a face so pretty as if she had perfect makeup on her face. Her eyebrows are black, her eyelashes are thick, her cheeks are rosy with a pure white face, and her lips are red. Who would believe that the woman beside him was not wearing any makeup?
"Whatever, who cares what you say, Young Mr. Han."

"Grandfather, I have something to tell you," Xiao Long said. He was sitting with his grandfather by now, and then he fed his grandfather with the fruits he had just peeled.
"What is it, Long? I've told everything to your parents. When they find out about the person who is going to be your wife, they are really happy. Now you know for a fact that my choice is absolutely right. Grandfather has never made a wrong choice when it comes to your life, Long," Xiao Chuan said.
"Yes, Grandpa. I also really like Qiqi. She was a very innocent, and kind person. Also simple too, I really like it, Grandpa. However, when I talked to Qiqi about this marriage matter, she and I had made an agreement regarding your sickness. So, Qiqi and I decided on a private marriage, Grandpa. Without the press, without a large number of guests, and without public announcement. Grandpa knows that Grandpa's health is really unstable right now, right? We didn't want Grandpa to be exhausted, and that would make things even more complicated. The wedding plan, which was originally intended for happiness, will end in sadness. I don't want any of that, Grandpa. So, that is the agreement . A wedding party would change nothing, marriage is marriage, right? I think an exclusive wedding with family members around us will be very pleasant. Because it will certainly make the event more intimate and enjoyable. So, what do you think Grandpa?" Xiao Long said in the end.
Honestly, he was scared to death. He knew more than anyone who his grandfather was. Xiao Chuan is an opulent figure, it was to be expected when he wanted an extravagant party for the marriage of his grandson. Indeed he seemed to enjoy the whole world knowing that his favorite grandson would marry and get a wife of a woman of his choice. Yes, Xiao Long can only hope that his grandfather will understand.
"Good,"
"What?" Xiao Long was shocked.
"Okay, if that's your decision. That's a sign that you have become a wiser man in making decisions, Long. Grandpa will agree to whatever decision you and Qiqi have made. Whatever it is,"
Relieved, that's how Xiao Long felt. He seemed to be smiling very broadly. He never expected that his grandfather would agree to it so quickly. A thing that was beyond Xiao Long's mind at all.
"Besides, Grandpa knows Qiqi isn't used to a luxurious life. Grandpa didn't want to make her feel constrained and burdened with her new place. If she was exposed by the media, I am afraid that Qiqi would feel shocked and disheartened. So, let her adapt to our way of life gradually, so that she feels comfortable, and does not feel burdened by the name Han as her family name. Grandpa will always support you for whatever good your wife is, Long."
Xiao Long smiled again. Although he felt that his grandfather loved Qiao Xin too much, he didn't care. As long as his grandfather agreed, then everything would go smoothly. The contract marriage charade was about to begin in just a few more days. Xiao Long had prepared for it all.
