Marriage Contract (14)

Lu Yi looked at the sofa in the living room: “There should be extra quilts in the closet.”

Now his bedroom was lined with the wedding gift given to him by Ms. Lu. It was red and very festive.

After all, it was his mother’s good intentions, plus it was for good luck, he still chose to lay this, and once the wedding was over, he would put it away and replace it with the set he had prepared.

” If the temperature doesn’t suit you…”

Lu Yi touched the remote control at hand, pressed a button, and a cool breeze blew in the living room: “There is an air conditioner in the living room, and the heating and cooling effects are good.”

Seeing Yu Ke’s broken face, he added a second plan: “If you really can’t sleep on the sofa, we can add another bed.”

Yu Ke couldn’t help complaining: “This is the wedding night. Anyway, it’s my first time getting married. Can you give people a good memory?”

Lu Yi looked at him for a while, and reluctantly said, “Well then, for today, my bed is half yours.”

Knowing that he would agree, Yu Ke showed a big smile: “Then let’s go shopping.”

Lu Yi frowned, thinking whether his decision to let go was correct: “Make a list first, then go down.”

After going to the mall, Lu Yi wrote the list of things to buy and divided into two: “We will buy them separately and meet at the exit when the time comes.”

“Okay.” Although he really wanted to enjoy the fun of shopping together, Yu Ke knew when to stop.

He quickly bought things according to Lu Yi’s list. When passing a bookshelf, he paused for a while, and then took more than a dozen books from the shelf, books like “Domineering President Loves Me” and “The President’s Sweetheart”…

At the checkout, he took a few glances at the counter and added a few boxes of fruit flavors, ultra-thin stimulating “chewing gum”.

When they came, they drove the car just to bring things, but there were a lot of books, so he hesitated and paid for an extra small suitcase.

When he finished, Lu Yi was already waiting for him at the exit.

Seeing what was in Yu Ke’s hand, Lu Yi asked him: “The mall will directly help deliver the goods to the parking lot. Why did you buy a suitcase?”

Yu Ke coughed: “The things I bought are a bit heavy, so I’m afraid of it being crushed. And I’m going on a business trip soon, so I thought about adding one.”

Lu Yi did not doubt what he said, and stood patiently waiting for Yu Ke to come over.

The two of them walked side by side to the underground parking lot, and a car slowly pulled out from the parking space. Judging from the trajectory of the car, the driver seemed to be a novice.

For safety, Lu Yi waited until the other party successfully left the parking space before starting to look for his car.

When he was concentrating on finding a car, he was pushed hard from behind. Accompanied by a panic shout of “careful”, the former “novice driver” that had left, was running over the person who pushed him.

After rolling back and forth twice, the car ran away.

Looking at the bloody person on the ground and the squashed box, Lu Yi quickly dialed the emergency and police numbers.

The ambulance came quickly, the lights in the emergency room turned on, and quickly dimmed.

A doctor in a white coat and a mask came out and asked, “Which is the patient’s family member?”

Lu Yi stood up: “I am his husband.”

The doctor took off the mask and showed an expression of regret: “The patient was sent too late. He has stopped breathing just now, sorry for your loss.”

The police also rushed to the hospital at this time: “Are you Mr. Lu who called the police?”

“It’s me, I just went through a murder case, and it was my wife who was lying in the operating room.”

“I’m sorry, but we need your cooperation to make a transcript.”

“Please wait for a while, I want to see him and go to the bathroom.”

Lu Yi pushed open the door of the operating room and reached out to touch Yu Ke’s eyes.

He straightened out Yu Ke’s blood-stained hair, walked out silently, and went to the bathroom to wash his hands. Looking at the face in the mirror, he suddenly threw a fierce punch and broke the mirror, scaring the little nurse who was passing by.

“Wait a minute.” He called the nurse, “I am the husband of the patient Yu Ke who was just sent in. I will double the cost of the mirror. Please register it for me.”

Looking at the handsome young man in front of her, the little nurse nodded and looked at the man’s beautiful hand. She exclaimed, “Your hand is bleeding. Let me bandage it for you.”

Lu Yi glanced at his hand: “No need.” This bit of blood is nothing compared to the blood that Yu Ke shed for him.

He walked out and said to the police waiting outside: “I’m fine, trouble you guys.”

Before calling out the mall monitoring, Lu Yi said: “The driver of that car should be a former employee of the Lu Group.”

A person who was sent to prison by Lu Yi for stealing trade secrets a year ago.

According to the evidence provided by Lu Yi, the police quickly called up relevant data to monitor. Sure enough, just a few days after being released from prison, the other party stole someone else’s car and committed the crime on impulse.

Originally, his purpose was Lu Yi, but after hitting someone to death, he persuaded him and drove away.

He was arrested on the highway. According to the other party’s account, a year ago, he experienced too much. The family went bankrupt. His mother died because of not getting help. His wife abandoned him. The mentally handicapped son was abused in an orphanage.

He hated Lu Yi, hated these cruel and ruthless capitalists, why were these people so happy, but he had fallen to this point.

There were actually many loopholes in what this person said. For example, the shopping mall was in a high-end community. Why could the other party easily enter this community when the other party had been so miserable? For his own son, why did he take such a big risk?

There was a suspicion in his heart, but the murderer insisted that he did it impulsively. Lu Yi spent his wedding night in the police station and stayed up all night.

After dawn, he decided to go back to find evidence. When he turned on the computer, the computer screen turned pure blue, with only one sentence and two options on it.

“Do you want to change the past; do you want your wife to come back to live?”

The person who knew that his wife had just died was no one else, only the murderer, or more precisely, the man behind the scenes.

Lu Yi’s personal computer asked a company expert to help him set up a lot of things. He knew very well that this might be a trap.

No matter if he pressed yes or no, the computer would fall into a virus.

Although nothing would be stolen, the data in the computer would be automatically destroyed. But he hadn´t had time to back up the data of a newly prepared project, which may cause considerable losses.

But thinking of Yu Ke’s face, he felt awkward, he moved the mouse gently, and clicked Yes.

Even if he doesn’t have deep love yet, in the face of the same situation, he would subconsciously want to save his life, but he wanted Yu Ke to live, very much.

The computer returned to normal, and nothing seemed to have happened.

He hesitated for a while, but chose to call the company employees and let them handle his computer.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the bright red bed covered with rose petals for a long, long time.

He closed his eyes only after feeling that his eyes were sore.

However, when he opened his eyes again, everything around him changed, and the flood of information made his head ache sharply.

This chaotic feeling caused him to be unresponsive, and a slap hit him firmly on his face, which was fiery and painful.

“Dressing like this, you have to be a shameless bitch!”

Although he didn’t know who was hitting him, Lu Yi still grasped the beater’s hand firmly in a reflexive manner, and then he dislocated the opponent’s arm without hesitation.

He found a full-length mirror in the room and saw his current face.

He looked three points like himself, with heavy make-up on, and his clothes were nightclub-like, covered in rivets and sequins flashing under the lights.

He sorted out the information in his mind. Now he was in the messy world of novels that Yu Ke secretly bought, and the voice in his mind told him that as long as the world can have another ending and completely change the fate of the character he possessed, he would be able to go back in time and change the ending of Yu Ke’s tragic death.

Except for the character’s original plot and general ending, he won’t get any other information, and there is no other magical tool to help.

If he succeeds, he would be sent to another world. If he fails, he would die in this world and never see his parents and friends again. Of course, Yu Ke will not be resurrected.

This seems to be a mandatory clause, but it was actually because Lu Yi made a choice at the beginning, when he turned on the computer, he chose yes.

It sounded very absurd and incredible, but the man in the mirror had a very bright red palm print on his face, and his face was still hot and painful.

He looked at the hitter on the ground who called Ouch. He was a middle-aged man who had suffered through the vicissitudes of life. He was not too old, but he had great strength. He was a famous and hot-blooded person in their village and also his current partner’s own father, could also be said to be his own mother.

Because his Phoenix male1 husband was born by this man himself.

In this world, men and men marriage was legal, because women were quite scarce, and technology was advanced. As long as they were willing, men can undergo a remodeling operation in adulthood, and they could conceive and have children.

Lu Yi, who should be called Qiao Yi now, was also newly married. In the wedding day, they broke up because of his husband’s mom.

Because the husband’s mother hopes that her daughter-in-law can undergo transformation surgery and give birth to a fat boy in the Wang family as soon as possible. But in fact, Qiao Yi’s husband, Wang Cheng was the one below in order to please Qiao Yi.

Not to say that Qiao Yi was a dink, and did not want children, even if he wanted, he was not going to be the one giving birth.

Although this marriage was not great, it was also Qiao Yi’s choice. Lu Yi did not comment on a character in a novel.

But now he was Qiao Yi, and in the original ending, Qiao Yi’s husband, Wang Cheng, will derail with the gentle and virtuous white moonlight2. Then Qiao Yi fell downstairs to death because of a fight.

Because of the accidental death of Qiao Yi’s parents, all the family property went to Wang Cheng, and Wang Cheng took his money and had children with the gentle and virtuous white moonlight and led a happy life.

The door was opened from the outside, Wang Cheng walked in, and the father, who hadn’t screamed, began to howl: “God damn, your wife hit me! I’m not alive!”

Qiao Yi said in a cool tone: “Please make it clear that you raise your hand first. I just hit back.”

Wang Cheng looked at the clear slap marks on his wife’s face: “Dad, you are not right, how can you beat Qiao Yi?”

He talked a to his mother and said: “But Qiao Yi, you did not do the right thing. Dad is an elder after all. You apologize to him.”

As soon as Qiao Yi looked at the gentle and handsome man in front of him, he said coldly: “It’s okay to apologize, let’s divorce first.”
