CHAPTER 67: CHAPTER 67: PROMISING A LIFETIME 8

Li Tingyan burst into a hearty laugh, "Nini, what you’re saying isn’t right. Dating without the intention of marriage is just fooling around. We’re good citizens; we can’t be disorderly!"

"Nini, once I finish the contract I’m working on, I’ll sort out the marriage agreement between you and Zhang Zhiqiang, then propose to your family. You’re not at marriageable age yet, so we can get engaged first. Once you’re old enough, we’ll get our marriage certificate!"

Li Tingyan laid out the future with Nianyang clearly. The more he thought about it, the more he looked forward to it. He wished Nianyang would grow up a few years immediately so he could marry her right away. Thinking that he had to wait a few more years to officially wed her, Li Tingyan couldn’t help but feel anxious.

Ah, the little wife is too young, the big gray wolf wants to eat but can’t!

"..."

Nianyang was speechless. She had agreed to him less than a minute ago, right? This man is too eager!

Is he so sure that his feelings will remain unchanged in a few years?

Nianyang smiled and said, "Li Tingyan, there’s no need to rush the proposal. Since you’ve investigated me, you naturally know that there’s some complexity between my family and me. Honestly, I’m already planning to split from them. Even if we do get married in the future, it won’t concern them."

"As for the arranged marriage with Zhang Zhiqiang, since I’ve agreed to date you, I certainly won’t maintain the engagement with him. I’ll find a way to break it off, but you don’t need to get involved in that, okay?"

Li Tingyan couldn’t help but furrow his brow and said, "So you’re saying that, for now, the relationship between us can’t be made public?"

Nianyang nodded, "Yes, it’s for your own good. After all, my parents are quite troublesome. If they know you’re my boyfriend, they’re bound to target you. You’re a Sea Merchant, and I don’t want you to get a bad reputation because of my family, delaying your future. So let’s wait until I’ve sorted out everything I’m worried about, then we’ll talk about the engagement."

Li Tingyan originally thought Nianyang didn’t want to be with him, so he felt a bit gloomy.

After hearing her explanation, he smiled happily, sweetly thinking.

Having a girlfriend is really different from being single. With this thoughtful young lady by his side, it’s so heartwarming!

"But Li Tingyan, some ugly words must be said upfront." Nianyang cleared her throat, "Since you know that I’m different now compared to the past, you need to understand I have a naturally bad temper. To become my man, you must not betray me. In simple terms, you must be loyal to me and not be attracted to other women. Otherwise, I definitely won’t let you off. Although I can’t beat you up, I’m skilled in medicine. I have a thousand ways to make you wish you were dead. Do you still want to be my man?"

Li Tingyan is very outstanding. His looks and promising future will surely attract countless admirers. Nianyang has no doubt that being with him means facing innumerable competitors.

Nianyang can’t control those admirers, but the prerequisite is he must restrain himself, not be tempted by other women, and ensure both his mind and body belong to her.

Our Nianyang is quite domineering, isn’t she～

Li Tingyan sensed a kindred spirit in Nianyang’s gaze.

This gave him a slight shock. Initially, he only felt the young lady had a secret. Now it seems there might be more to it?

But since she doesn’t tell him, he won’t delve into it!

No matter what mystery she holds, she can only be his wife!

Li Tingyan said in a serious tone, "Comrade Gu Nianyang, please trust me. Since I like you, I will like you for a lifetime, never looking at another woman!"

"Alright, since everything’s out in the open, let me treat the chill in your leg now. Otherwise, you won’t even be able to walk tonight."
