Chapter 604: Chapter 604

Ruyue said with some guilt to Chen Suyi, "Suyi, I'm sorry, I lost, and I dragged you down with me."

Chen Suyi quickly helped her sit on the bed and said, "It's okay, Anna just likes to cause trouble, playing some pranks is all, I'm used to it. How could that be considered dragging me down?"

"Exactly! I swear, what I'm going to have Sister Suyi do is definitely something that she will outwardly find annoying, but secretly be thrilled about!" Anna immediately said excitedly.

Xu Hao shook his head and said, "Alright, alright, no more messing around. Suyi, tonight you can hold a concert here and bring it to a successful conclusion, but first thing tomorrow morning, you'll need to accompany me back to Huadu to participate in a ribbon-cutting ceremony."

"Oh, will I get an appearance fee?" Chen Suyi asked with some reluctance.

Xu Hao smiled and said, "An appearance fee? I was originally going to give you this ring as your fee, but seeing that you're being so dishonest, I've thought it over, and I guess not."

In Xu Hao's hand appeared a ring that emitted a gentle blue glow, which made all the girls' eyes turn fervent, even Ruyue's gaze flickered slightly. Love this story? Show your support on *.

However, such a finely crafted ring, glowing with a gentle blue light and seemingly romantic, is probably something almost every girl would want, right?

Chen Suyi pouted and huffed, "If you won't give it, then don't, it's just a ring. Can't I just go buy one?"

"But this one has been discontinued," Xu Hao said, showing the ring in his hand and giving it a shake.

"Humph! Discontinued means I just won't wear it, what's the big deal?" Chen Suyi said with pride, but her gaze, which lingered on the ring, betrayed her emotions.

Xu Hao inwardly sighed at the devastating effect a ring seemed to have on a girl. He said with a smile, "Actually, there's nothing much you need to do. Whoever dares to ask you to do something excessive, I'll naturally take care of them for you. If you want this ring, just sing well at the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Then, for the next three years, you must listen to me obediently. Until the Immortal Bone issue is resolved, or rather, until the people from the Island Country and Fusang Country are dealt with, you must not leave my side or leave Jing'an City."

"If I do that, will you give me the ring?" Chen Suyi asked.

"Of course!" Xu Hao nodded and said.

"Can I buy it with money instead? After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, I'll offer to buy the ring at double the price, and for the next three years, I'll still listen to you. How about that?" Chen Suyi inquired.

"It's not very good."

Xu Hao shook his head, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Aren't you just thinking of getting the ring first and then being unrestricted?"

"Then I'll offer three times the price!" Chen Suyi clenched her teeth and said.

Initially, Xu Hao spent fifty billion Huaya Currency to buy the ten rings, and three times the price for this one would be a total of fifteen billion Huaya Currency. Although she had indeed made a lot of money over these few years, for her to pull out fifteen billion all at once was truly very tough, if not impossible. Hence, she had thought up a way—to borrow it from Liu Ruyan and then pay it back gradually.

After all, she didn't want to wait that long to get the ring, or rather, she didn't want to be at Xu Hao's mercy.

Suddenly, Xu Hao smiled and said, "Here are two choices for you: first, buy it at ten times the price. You can borrow the money from me, and I'll charge interest—not much, just one percent. Second, you sign a contract with me, obliging you to service me for the next ten years, without defying my commands. Choose one, it's up to you."

"Ten times the price, why don't you just rob someone!"

Chen Suyi was dumbfounded, as both options Xu Hao presented were incredibly harsh.

Ten times the price meant fifty billion, and if she had fifty billion, she herself could buy ten of them!

As for the second option, that was basically like signing a ten-year servitude contract with extremely stringent demands, pretty much equivalent to slavery!

"I don't want either!" Chen Suyi exclaimed angrily.

Before Xu Hao could respond, Anna suddenly took hold of Chen Suyi's hand and whispered, "Sister Suyi, are you silly? If it were me, I'd definitely choose the second option. What kind of demands could Brother Xu have? If he dares to make unreasonable requests, like asking you to warm his bed or something, Sister Ru Yan and the others definitely wouldn't agree!"

Listening to Anna, Chen Suyi suddenly felt that Anna made a lot of sense. What excessive demands could Xu Hao have?

Women, he was not lacking; there were several here waiting for his affection. Money, he was even less lacking; after all, it was said his family owned a hundred gold mines. So what excessive demands could he possibly have?

Seems there weren't any, right?

After careful consideration, Chen Suyi nodded and said, "Anna, you're making sense. I'll take the gamble this time. I don't believe he'd dare do anything rash!"

Xu Hao smiled and said, "So, you're sure you want to choose the second option?"

"Yes!" Chen Suyi would never choose the first option anyway. Fifty billion Huaya Currency, plus one percent interest—she'd be paying off the debt until she was old and gray!

"Okay! Come, sign this contract." Xu Hao clapped his hands, and immediately someone brought in a contract.
