Chapter 485 - Contract



Chapter 485 - Contract

"You seemed really prepared." Wang Ruoyun lazily propped her chin into his palms as she rested her elbows into the arm of her chair. She always thought that this man would insist that she marry him. Who would have thought that he would actually propose such a crazy thing?

"Give it to me." She uttered. One of her servants immediately got the paper from Li Qiang and presented it to her. Silence blanketed the room as she read it. "You wanted me to teach you?" She lifted an eyebrow before falling into a puddle of laughter. "Are you serious?"

"That is only fair. I cannot use elements." Li Qiang’s face was stern. "Fighting you without training would be suicide."

"How dare you ask Lady Wang to personally teach you?" Ouyang Jing’s voice echoed inside the room.

"Noisy." Li Qiang uttered in a low voice. However, it was enough for both Wang Ruoyun and Ouyang Jing to hear.

"Duke Li... I am not just someone who would teach a person the basics of swordsmanship."

"Then... the marriage will happen." Li Qiang’s nonchalant answer immediately made her frown. She examined the man for a few seconds. "I don’t have a problem with that."

"You just said that you don’t want to marry me," Wang Ruoyun stated.

"Your refusal to train me only meant that you wanted to marry me," Li Qiang did his best to maintain a straight face. "How can I refuse this?"

"You — " Wang Ruoyun narrowed her eyes on Li Qiang for a few seconds before laughing. She shook her head, trying to contain the amus.e.m.e.nt in her eyes. "You are serious?"

Seeing Li Qiang just stared at her, Wang Ruoyun nodded. "Alright." she bit her thumb and used the blood to sign the contract. "It’s signed."

"Then... the training will start tomorrow." Li Qiang walked towards her as he got his own copy of the contract. He stood in front of Wang Ruoyun as a smile dangled on his handsome face. "I will see you tomorrow, Lady Wang."

A turned and left, his footsteps echoing against the marble flooring of the Wang Family’s common area.

"Fool," Wang Ruoyun sneered the moment Li Qiang left the hall. She stood from his seat and walked towards her father’s office. He knocked and walked inside the cozy space. She then sat opposite to her father, without waiting for him to say something.

"Is he gone?" the voice of her father interrupted her stupor. General Wang chose not to meet Li Qiang as he thought it was futile. Moreover, he was always the type of person who would not lower himself just to fight someone as dense as that man.

"Hmmm." She nodded.

"And the marriage?"

"We made a deal," Wang Ruoyun started telling him about the deal that she and Li Qiang agreed.

"Did you read the contract properly?" General Wang asked. In response, Wang Ruoyun handed him the contract.

"Let me assure you. There is nothing harmful in that contract. I am convinced that the man does not want this marriage." He eyed the stack of reports on her father’s table. "When was the last time that you had a proper sleep?" she changed the topic as her father started reading the contract.

"He wanted you to train him?" Ignoring her daughter’s question, General Wang sneered. "And you agreed?"

"Father... he only wanted to make a fair contract. Something that he could present to his brother once he ends this... engagement." Wang Ruoyun was fully convinced that Li Qiang does not want this marriage to happen.

Li Qiang was a waste. His martial arts are also below average and he had never trained his mind and body while growing up. Even if he started training now... there is just no way that someone like him would be able to beat her.

Compared to Wang Ruoyun, Li Qiang was nothing. Wang Ruoyun grew up on the battlefield with her father. She was trained since she was a young child. She started using her elements when she was a teenager and right now... there are a few people who could actually beat her in one-on-one match.

Wang Ruoyun was even confident that she could beat the king in a match. With all these facts at hand. There is no way that Li Qiang would have a chance in this fight.

"Ruoyun I have a bad feeling about this. That man is just like his brother. We cannot trust them."

"Father... I know what I’m doing." Wang Ruoyun reasoned. "I will make sure to let him sign another doc.u.ment saying that they won’t blame me if something bad happens. After all... a fight is very dangerous. Who knows... I might accidentally hurt him." A flash on unfathomable expression can be seen in her eyes as she laughed a peal of dry sinister laughter.

In response, both the General and Wang Ruoyun’s right-hand man inwardly shook their heads. Lady Wang... was always known for her brutal ways. She is ruthless and would always prefer killing above anything else. The death of her late husband years ago only made this matter worst.

"I just want you to be careful." General Wang warned. "The king... might be looking for ways to persecute us. And that could be the reason why he wanted you to marry his useless brother."

Wang Ruoyun nodded. She then gave her father a meaningful smile. "When was the last time that you slept?" she asked for the second time. To be honest, she wanted to avoid talking about this engagement as much as possible. Wang Ruoyun knew what the king is trying to do, and she hated how her father always acted cordial just because he wanted to defend this country.

Just because of honor and loyalty.

"The rebels in the north seemed to increase their presence. From robbery to burning tiny villages. They must be up to something."

"Or they are just tired of how the King always ignores their needs," Wang Ruoyun said. However, she quickly pursed her lips as she realized her mistake. The walls have ears. Wang Ruoyun was already used to living in the borders for years.

She had actually forgotten that they are currently in the Capital and not in the remote place that they use to stay.
