Time: 17:12:03 on May 1, 2025!
Location: Ling Yi's home!
In the living room, Ling Yi looked at the number "1" above Xia Qianran and Su Mu's heads, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Good grief, you guys really turned Death Preview into a TV series!
Seeing Ling Yi's expression, Xia Qianran and Su Mu immediately understood what he meant.
"Not again?" Su Mu asked, pointing to the top of his head.
Ling Yi nodded.
"Are we all?" Su Mu asked again.
Ling Yi nodded again.
Su Mu placed his hands on the left front light, staggered back a few steps, and looked at Xia Qianran with disgust.
" Qianran, Boss, President Xia, I'll submit my resignation letter as soon as I get back. Being your secretary is really killing me! I have to resign!"
Xia Qianran calmly replied, "We'll have to wait until we get back to the company to discuss that."
Then he looked at Ling Yi: "How did we die this time?"
"Your future has become chaotic, and you need to..." Ling Yi glanced at the time on his phone.
"It will probably take about ten hours to see your Death Preview."
"The future, chaotic?" Xia Qianran frowned. "You mean, because my future has changed too many times, it has become blurry and unclear?"
Ling Yi mentally applauded Xia Qianran.
Indeed, the smarter and more confident a person is, the more they tend to overthink things.
Ling Yi couldn't very well tell Xia Qianran and the others that his ability had a limited number of uses per day, could he?
I've already revealed my abilities to them, but it's best to keep some of my true abilities hidden.
"You're right. It seems being the president of Guxia New Energy Group isn't easy!"
" Ling Yi, let's make a deal!" Xia Qianran looked at him with an extremely serious expression.
Tell me about it!
"Protect me and Su Mu's safety for one year. After one year, I can give you ten million."
Ling Yi raised an eyebrow, and for some reason, the plot seemed somewhat familiar.
"Besides that, you'll get one million every time you save me and Su Mu."
"Can!"
Anyway, saving anyone will just level up his left eye, and Xia Qianran and Su Mu are just tools for him to level up.
As long as I stay by their side, I'll probably be able to farm energy once or twice a day until the Xia Family heir issue is completely settled.
The key issue is that Ling Yi can only view a limited number of Death Preview and Simulation Rescue each day.
"Big clients" like Xia Qianran and Su Mu are rare.
Given Xia Qianran's current condition, it's likely that she'll be used in all nine Simulation Rescue every day.
It's perfect as a tool for leveling up your own character.
The key point is, you still get paid!
"We'll sign the Hire contract when we get back to the company tomorrow." Xia Qianran breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay!" Su Mu clapped her hands.
What the two women were most worried about was that Ling Yi would refuse because he was afraid it was too dangerous.
They all knew Ling Yi's abilities; as long as Ling Yi was there, their safety was absolutely guaranteed.
"Sister Qianran, why don't you just marry Ling Yi?" Su Mu said again at this moment.
Ling Yi was dumbfounded. Just as he was about to say something, Xia Qianran nodded seriously and said, "That is indeed a good idea!"
"Huh?" Ling Yi was a little confused. Wait, you guys just casually bring up marriage like that? Treating it like a business transaction?
" Ling Yi, marry me, and I can give you another ten million a year later."
Something's not right. Why does the plot feel so familiar?
"Isn't this the kind of marriage-of-contract plot you often see in CEO romance short stories?"
Su Mu patted Ling Yi on the shoulder and said, "You still watch short dramas!"
"What's wrong with watching short dramas? I always thought those domineering CEO/brainless plots in short dramas were fake, but I didn't expect they actually exist in the real world!"
" Qianran's situation is a bit special. She's a girl, and there are several conditions she needs to meet to secure the family inheritance, one of which is that she must get married."
"Marriage? It can't be that simple, can it?"
"Marriage is considered a preliminary acquisition of inheritance rights, but it's only an inheritance agreement!" Xia Qianran explained.
"Within three years of signing the inheritance agreement, a child must be born, and it must be a boy, who must bear the surname Xia."
"If I can't do that, I will lose my right to inherit."
Ling Yi looked at Xia Qianran. Although it was an accident, after the absurdity of last night, in Ling Yi's heart, Xia Qianran was already his woman.
Ling Yi Ling Yi didn't care about whether or not Xia Qianran was an heir, but he couldn't bear to watch her marry someone else.
Of course, if he were the Ling Yi of yesterday, he certainly wouldn't have such inappropriate thoughts.
But Ling Yi today is different.
His ability to see gave him confidence; even though he had nothing now, he believed his future would be Glory and brilliant.
Poverty makes people lose their ambition, just as a thin horse has a long mane; the poor are prone to losing their ambition!
Before, Ling Yi struggled every day just to make ends meet; he never dared to hope for more.
If Xia Qianran had appeared yesterday and still wanted to agree to a marriage of convenience, Ling Yi would never have agreed, or rather, he wouldn't have dared to agree.
He couldn't have afforded these things yesterday.
Did you really think that a marriage of convenience was all it took?
The Xia Family Xia Family, and those hungry wolves behind them who are eyeing Xia Qianran, will probably die without him even knowing how he died in just a few days.
Can Xia Qianran protect him? Don't be ridiculous, Xia Qianran has to protect herself right now!
"Let's agree to a one-year marriage first. You help me secure the inheritance agreement. As for the future, if we're compatible, we'll get married formally; if not, I'll let you go."
Xia Qianran needs a buffer period to make arrangements.
For Xia Qianran, a year was enough.
Now that those people behind the scenes have started resorting to dirty tricks, she no longer has any scruples.
"Okay, I agree to the marriage of convenience." Ling Yi didn't hesitate much.
"I need to remind you that once word gets out that we're getting married, you'll become the target of public criticism and face unimaginable pressure."
"Like in those short dramas, being looked down upon and Taunt in various ways?"
Xia Qianran thought for a moment and nodded, "Pretty much, maybe even more extreme, it could be fatal at any moment."
"Well, I'm actually looking forward to it."
"Expect?"
"I control life and death, I can foresee the future, and everything within my sight is in my hands!" Ling Yi clenched his fist and laughed.
"That's so childish!" Su Mu laughed.
"It's a bit cringey!" Ling Yi laughed.
Is it childish? But that's exactly how Ling Yi feels right now.
Su Mu thought Ling Yi was being childish, but Xia Qianran didn't think so at all. On the contrary, she felt that Ling Yi was just like that, and that's how he should be.
Only a man like him is worthy of Xia Qianran.
" Su Mu, help me prepare the agreement!" Xia Qianran was a Wind Walk person. Now that everything was settled, she would implement it immediately without any delay.
"Okay!" Su Mu nodded and turned to walk towards the door.
However, before leaving the house, he glanced back at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi waved his hand and said, "You're safe today, but the danger lies tomorrow."
"So, if I do whatever I want today, I won't die?"
"You're asking for trouble, I won't help you!"
Su Mu rolled her eyes, turned around, and left.
Xia Qianran then looked at Ling Yi again. "The Civil Affairs Bureau is closed now. We'll go there to get our marriage certificate at nine o'clock tomorrow morning!"
