♂?，，

  Li Mingyu slightly turned his eyes and nodded: "Good!"

  nbs)”

  Li Mingyun smiled wryly, then became serious and said: "This time, whether it's taking advantage of the situation, repaying a favor, or making a deal, although we're signing a fake marriage contract, I also need to give my family an explanation. It can't be that today I say I'll marry you and tomorrow I say I'll leave you. So, I'll cooperate with you to get through this crisis, but you must also cooperate with me in front of my family and put on a good show. We can't make mistakes or cause trouble for each other. As for the time limit, I've set it at three years. After three years, I'll find an appropriate reason to return your freedom, and from then on, we won't have anything to do with each other. Of course, I also won't let you suffer a loss; I'll give you some compensation. If you agree to my conditions, then I'll help you out."

  Lin Lan only thought about solving the problem in front of her, three years was just three years, acting was just acting. As for compensation, whether there was or not didn't matter to her. She wasn't someone who needed to rely on others to survive. She also didn't care if she had wasted her youth because of this, or if she would become a second-hand woman. Using three years of time in exchange for the peace and security of her family and herself for the rest of their lives was worth it.

  "Alright, I agree." Lin Lansheng feared that Li Xiuciai would change his mind again and hastily agreed: "Should the contract be written by you or me?"

  Li Mingyun raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "Don't reconsider?"

  Lin Lan smiled helplessly: "If you didn't use a fake marriage contract and could still help me solve the problem, I would be eternally grateful."

  He can help if he wants to, but this fake marriage is also beneficial to him. On the surface, it seems like Lin Lan is using him, but in fact, he is also using Lin Lan. Li Mingyun feels a bit guilty, but then thinks that this is just a mutually beneficial transaction, and since they both agree, it's fair.

  "I'll write it!" Li Ming allowed himself to saunter into the thatched cottage.

  At this time, the sunset had gradually sunk to the west, and the light in the house was dim. Li Ming allowed a candle to be lit, spread out the paper, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, thought for a moment, and wrote with a flourish.

  "Take a look, see if there's anything that needs to be changed. If not, then just press your handprint on it." Li Mingyu stood up and made way for Lin Lan to take a look, knowing she could read prescriptions.

  Lin Lan picked up the contract and read it carefully. What was written on it was almost the same as what he had just said, with only one additional clause about breach of responsibility... If one party fails to cooperate well with the other party in solving problems and causes unnecessary trouble to the other party, the other party has the right to terminate the contract at any time or extend the contract period.

  This...

  Lin Lan hesitated, Li Xiuzai only needed to cooperate with her to get through the current crisis, but she had to cooperate with Li Xiuzai for three years, who knew how troublesome his family was, and how complicated their relationships were. She knew almost nothing about him, would it be too risky?

  Li Mingyuan saw her hesitating, and calmly took the contract from her hand. His voice was clear and transparent: "This is too absurd, let's just tear it up." Li Mingyuan pretended to want to tear up the contract, but in fact he had no confidence in his heart. Was this the right thing to do? Was it good or bad? Was it a clever move or self-inflicted trouble?

  "Hey... what's the matter?" Lin Lan snatched back the contract and held it to her chest, glaring at Li Xiucai with dissatisfaction: "Are you thinking of backing out?"

  Li Mingyun thought, no need to sign a contract, he would still help with this matter. Ye Zi was relieved.

  But Lin Lan complained: "I just took a few more glances, okay? Let me cooperate with the play, but I don't understand anything at all, and even less about my family. Can't I hesitate for a moment?"

  Miss, you must understand that helping you out of this predicament will put me at great risk and bring me a lot of trouble. My family may be troublesome, but they are not more difficult to deal with than Zhang's household.

  Lin Lan was embarrassed, Li Xiucai's words made sense, his troubles were caused by her.

  "I just want to add one more clause to the contract." Lin Lan looked up at him.

  Li Mingyun slightly frowned and listened with rapt attention.

  "No matter what conflicts I have with my family in the future, you must stand firmly on my side without hesitation or condition, maintain my dignity and interests, give me face in front of others, and behind their backs, it doesn't matter, I won't see it anyway." Lin Lan said resolutely, after all, this marriage is just a contract, so she wants to get the most benefit for herself.

  Li Mingyun smiled calmly, a thread of cold intent spreading in his eyes, his gaze fixed on the front, his whole person quiet as if he wanted to merge into the darkness where the candlelight couldn't reach. After a long time, he opened his mouth: "Also, no matter what others say or do in the future, no matter what difficulties they encounter, they must stand firmly and unconditionally on my side without hesitation or doubt, not lightly speaking of regret or giving up, they must trust me."

  In the end, his gaze had shifted from the void to Lin Lan's face, sincere and earnest, with a hint of unyielding dominance.

  Lin Lan secretly took a cold breath, and it seemed like his family was a den of dragons and tigers.

  "Can it be done?" Li Mingyun asked with a slightly serious tone.

  Lin Lan gritted her teeth, thinking that nothing comes easily and if she wanted to gain something, she had to pay the price. Since he helped her chase away the wolf, it was only fair for her to help him fight a tiger in return. However, Lin Lan was still too naive, as she later found out that Li Xiuzai's family didn't just have one tiger, but a whole pack of them.

  "Alright, let's settle on these two conditions." Lin Lan summoned up the courage to say resolutely. That damn Yao Jinhua had given her a really tough problem!

  Added a clause, pressed a fingerprint, each party holds one copy, and a mutually beneficial transaction takes effect.

  "Tonight, the village head will come to my house, and then I'll announce that I'm going to marry him." Lin Lan told him about the situation first, letting him prepare in advance.

  "Do I need to go?" Li Mingyun asked, putting the contract into his bosom.

  Lin Lanshu thought: "It's better not to show up for now, I think my brother will come looking for me later, and he'll know what to say?"

  Li Ming allowed a faint nod.

  "What about that friend?"

  "I let them go to Feng'an County first, I was originally going to leave here tomorrow, but for the sake of things, I'll stay a few more days."

  Lin Lan secretly thought it was fortunate that she had nowhere else to go today and accidentally walked here, it seems that everything has its own destiny.

  "Why don't we ask that friend to help? I think the ice-faced martial artist next to him is quite good. Lin Lan kindly reminded him, just in case Zhang Da Hu came to cause trouble, it would be better to have one more helper."

  Ice block face? Li Xiuzai was stunned for a moment before reacting to what she said, Chen De. After thinking about it for a moment, Chen De always had a stinky face all year round, as if he owed everyone money. The nickname "ice block face" is quite suitable for him. Then suddenly thought of it, usually not talkative and smile, Lin Lan would not give him a nickname behind his back?

  Li Mingyun subconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth: "No need to bother them then... are there any friends who can be trusted?"

  When it comes to friends, Lin Lan proudly said: "In the whole Ganxi Village, except for my sister-in-law who can't be trusted, everyone else is reliable."

  "All right, I'll write a letter now and have someone deliver it to the Ye's silk store in Feng'an County early tomorrow morning. Give it to the manager with the surname Ye." Li Mingyu said as he sat back down, picked up his brush and wrote a letter. After finishing, he sealed it with wax and handed it over to Lin Lan.

  Lin Lan looked at Li Mingyun with suspicion, what was his relationship with Ye's family?
