Yu Nian's question came from such an unexpected angle that he genuinely had never considered it.
"I won't go back on my word, and I certainly won't treat you like that." Still, a verbal promise like that hardly seemed convincing.
Uncertainty and lingering fear flickered in Yu Nian's eyes. "Then you don't need to give me any assets. I'm afraid I'll suddenly get run over and killed walking down the street one day."
Qin Yuheng's lips twitched into a helpless smile. "...All right."
Yu Nian asked again, "What else?"

"I'll make our relationship public within our circle. You can use my assets as you please, live in any property under my name, and come and go freely from my office-as my boyfriend."
Yu Nian was tempted. He felt Qin Yuheng had thought things through quite thoroughly. "You're not afraid to go public?"
"Why would I be?"

It won't always be like that, but I need time to adjust. If you can accept that, fine. If you can't, we should forget about dating."
Qin Yuheng nodded. "I'll follow your lead."
Yu Nian's gaze wandered
