Chapter 392: Five Conditions
(A friendly introduction to an urban youth campus book, "Super Divine Pen" by Dream God Pen (Book ID: 1648424))
"There’s a saying that the most poisonous is a woman’s heart, class rep, have you heard it? Why should I torture myself? If I hide your girlfriend and make you search for twelve years, tsk tsk... you would surely understand my feelings! Haha..."
Hearing Qiao Huanxuan ntion just now about hiding soone for twelve years, Li Yan imdiately recalled what she said last night. At the ti, she laughed in a sowhat terrifying way and deliberately mimicked the villainous female laugh, then ntioned the example of the most poisonous woman’s heart, Mada Ma.
Otherwise, if Qiao Huanxuan let Xiao Di see Li Yan in the morning, it would ruin their relationship. So, Li Yan had taken that remark as a joke and ignored it. Unexpectedly, she brought it up again now, and he hadn’t even reminded Yu Xiaodi, at this mont...
"Stop playing gas, what good is it for you to hide her? It’s wasted effort." Li Yan said lightly, not wanting to provoke the sowhat extre Qiao Huanxuan.
"I don’t care, I want to take revenge on you!"
"How else do you want to take revenge?" Li Yan smiled bitterly.
"Hmph! You think I’m stupid? With that kind of revenge, the one who suffers and endures is !"
Li Yan thought to himself, this is also what you brought up. But at this ti, it’s better not to provoke her. After seeing the music box, he believed Qiao Huanxuan’s words and knew she was deeply in love. However, the more love, the more hate when turned around, it’s hard to say if she would have extre feelings.
"Then how do you want to compensate you?"
"Why should I want your compensation? I just want to play with a little girl, for the sake of old classmates, I give you a heads up. I’m not here to negotiate terms..."
From Qiao Huanxuan’s tone, Li Yan knew she was here to negotiate conditions, otherwise, she would have acted directly. Although he didn’t believe Qiao Huanxuan would definitely succeed in kidnapping Yu Xiaodi, he wasn’t very familiar with her situation over the years. For those ticulous and crazy won, any miracle was possible. On the other hand, if she failed and got caught by the Yu family’s bodyguards, that wouldn’t be good either.
Since she was still willing to negotiate, it showed she hadn’t lost her mind. He imdiately said, "Let’s say I’m here to negotiate terms with you, what do you want in exchange?"
"Well, let think..."
"Huanxuan, to be honest, I don’t want to see anything happen to Xiao Di. But I also don’t want anything to happen to you! Yu Xiaodi is Yu Hong’s daughter, a few months ago, she was kidnapped. If you do the sa thing again, I worry about you..."
"Hmph! Are you trying to scare , or using a soft approach?" Qiao Huanxuan sneered, "Class rep, I’m still used to you calling Qiao Huanxuan or Qiao classmate. I’m not used to you suddenly calling affectionately!"
"OK, I’ll call you Qiao Huanxuan then, that’s how I called you back then. I’ll call you more affectionately, not because I want to confuse you with a soft approach. But because... I saw sothing in soone’s suitcase, sothing I gave away, was returned, and later thrown away, but soone treasured it. This made very... moved!" Li Yan spoke truthfully.
Qiao Huanxuan imdiately fell silent. Li Yan’s words represented he was speaking the truth, not trying to fool her. But after a while of silence, she sneered again, "Who gave you permission to touch other people’s things? Who allowed you to invade soone’s privacy?"
When it cos to sophistry, Li Yan isn’t bad either. As soon as she said that, he imdiately retorted, "That thing originally belongs to , right? I gave it to a girl, soone returned it, so it’s still mine. Even if I threw it away, it’s mine, now if I look at my possession, do I need permission? It’s mine, so naturally, I have a share of the privacy, who else needs to allow it?"
"You...!" Qiao Huanxuan was furious, not expecting this guy to argue like this.
But now, she has decision power!
"Hmph, go ahead and talk all you want! I was going to exchange with three conditions, but because soone snooped through others’ things, I’ll add one, and because soone refuses to admit and argues, I’ll add another! Five conditions, and I’ll give up on hiding that certain soone for twelve years." Qiao Huanxuan revealed her plan.
"Deal!" Li Yan agreed with a smile.
"Hmph! You love her that much? Don’t you want to hear my conditions?"
Li Yan put away his smile and said seriously, "Doing that will hurt , it will hurt Xiao Di, and it will hurt you and Xiao Di’s family as well. Why do it? If I take the responsibility, no matter the conditions, it won’t hurt you guys. Besides, I believe your conditions won’t be too harsh, so I’m very willing to agree."
"Really? You know ?" Qiao Huanxuan laughed strangely, "What if... this is just hypothetical, what if my first condition is for you to break up with Yu Xiaodi? The second condition is never to see her again? The third condition is to marry ? The fourth condition is to leave S City with ? The fifth condition is for you to agree to another five conditions?"
Li Yan leaned back heavily in his seat, utterly speechless. This woman is really fierce, these conditions are not just harsh, they are ruthless!
"Qiao Huanxuan, I’m starting to doubt, are you really an architect? Are you sure you’re not a lawyer or sothing?"
Hearing Li Yan’s sarcastic remark, Qiao Huanxuan chuckled comfortably, "I’ve always told you, ’The most venomous is a woman’s heart!’ But you didn’t believe . Luckily, I’m kind-hearted, and I was just posing a hypothetical. Otherwise, you’d be so mad right now that you’d probably smash your phone, right? Or maybe pretend to agree and then give a good beating?"
"..."
"Don’t agree to won so easily! Because your promise might be sothing you can’t fulfill."
Li Yan laughed wryly, "Your words are quite philosophical."
"A kind-hearted woman with great philosophy is giving you another chance now — five conditions, do you agree?"
"A kind-hearted, beautiful, deeply passionate, and philosophical... my woman, of course, I agree!"
Li Yan added ’beautiful, deeply passionate,’ which made soone on the other end feel slightly touched, and more than just ’beautiful’; at least he saw her as ’deeply passionate.’ He just didn’t expect him to change ’a certain woman’ to ’my woman.’
"Bah! Shaless, who’s your woman?" This statent made Qiao Huanxuan’s montum less aggressive. She lowered her voice to scold him, trying to boost her own stance.
"I know, do you want to shout it out loud? Or should I break it down in detail?" Li Yan replied with a laugh.
Qiao Huanxuan snorted coldly, showing her disdain for him. "Alright, since you agreed, there’s no backing out now!"
"I won’t back out. You can start listing the conditions now. As long as it’s sothing I can do, I’ll definitely do it." Li Yan also wanted to make it up to her a bit.
"Haven’t you read novels? Even if not, you’ve watched TV adaptations, right? You know Zhao Min? Wouldn’t it be too easy to fulfill the conditions right away? These should be saved for significant monts in the future to really get you! I haven’t thought of anything now, but it won’t be sothing like grabbing stars or the moon, being a beast of burden, or making you die or commit cris. I’ll let you know when I think of sothing later. But! What I just posed was hypothetical, but who’s to say one or several of them won’t happen later, depending on my mood... if I’m in a bad mood, hmm!"
Qiao Huanxuan rambled on and on.
Li Yan was speechless — you could just say I should follow your lead to keep you happy, why so many constraints?
"Fine, I agreed, so I won’t make excuses. And don’t cause too much trouble. I made concessions for you, don’t make everyone upset and leave." Li Yan also gave her a mild warning, lest her pride got too high.
"Don’t worry, only you would go back on your word, not . Now I have so good news for you..."
"Hmm?" Li Yan was puzzled.
But soon after, he heard Qiao Huanxuan’s cheerful voice over the phone, "Xiaodi! Phone! Yes, it’s your boyfriend Li Yan’s. Oh, nothing much, just asking if anyone would be receiving in S City. He didn’t call last night or this morning. Want to listen?"
Her voice was loud enough for Li Yan to hear, clearly intentional by Qiao Huanxuan. Li Yan understood imdiately — there was no kidnapping, and her threat was just leveraging last night’s fear, not really planning to do it!
He couldn’t help but smile wryly, even though he agreed to five conditions under her little scare. However... as long as they were safe, and if they could coexist peacefully, that would be the best. As long as Qiao Huanxuan didn’t beco extrely irrational, what are five conditions compared to that?
He overheard Yu Xiaodi politely saying over the phone, "No need, Sister Qiao, you talk to him, I won’t."
"Oh, then I won’t either." Qiao Huanxuan’s voice got louder, "Li Yan, I’m hanging up! Your future father-in-law is hosting us, and we’re going to have lunch now."
This "future father-in-law" referred to Yu Hong, and this was likely said for Yu Xiaodi, who was beside her, to ease her wariness. But Li Yan could still detect a hint of jealousy in her words.
At that mont, Li Yan saw Huang Ying approaching, holding her phone, looking around cautiously for him.
Seeing her slightly confused expression, Li Yan didn’t chat further with Qiao Huanxuan, "Enjoy your al! Hope you have a delightful al without thinking about the conditions!"
"Hehehe..." With Yu Xiaodi beside her, Qiao Huanxuan didn’t say much and used a laugh to remind him not to forget.
