Chapter 709: Chapter 713: Signing means being a workhorse for a lifetime!
Ye Xingbei felt both soft-hearted and sympathetic, nodding her head to say, “Alright, you can stay for now, and you can leave if you ever find a suitable job.”
“No, Beibei, this would leave me feeling untreated, unsettled,” Duan Yanbing said. “Give me a contract like the one you gave to Xueno and Yu Nuo. After signing it, I will be your person, and I can guarantee my loyalty to you for life.”
“Absolutely not,” Ye Xingbei adamantly refused, “Yanbing, though I’ve saved your life, all I did was rush your unconscious body from the beach to the hospital and covered a few months worth of your medical bills. Aside from that, I’ve done nothing extraordinary. I believe anyone else would have done the same. I cannot let you sign the same contract as Xueno and Yu Nuo.”
Since leaving Y country with her, Xueno and Yu Nuo were no longer her slaves.
Before they left Y-country, Ye Xinglan made them sign a contract with her.
This so-called contract was practically a “Slavery Contract” drafted by exploiting loopholes in the law.
After signing that contract, even if Xueno and Yu Nuo were no longer her slaves, they would have to obey her for a lifetime.
Otherwise, their fate would be worse than death.
Could she have the recipient of the Special Merit Medal sign a slavery contract for her?
She didn’t have that kind of audacity.
Duan Yanbing looked down, his voice bitter. “Beibei, to me now, nothing else is important. I just want a home, a sense of belonging, a place that belongs to me. I really want to sign this, I hope you can fulfill my wish.”
Ye Xingbei shook her head, “Even if you don’t sign, you can consider this place your home.”
Duan Yanbing looked up at her, “You said ‘consider’ not ‘is’. I yearn to be part of this family. I don’t want to wander anymore. Despite the vast world, there isn’t a place that belongs to me. Beibei, please.”
“Yanbing, calm down. This is unfair to you.” Ye Xingbei was frustrated.
She had never seen someone so determined to sign a slavery contract.
It showed he wasn’t kidding when he said his undercover work had messed his mind up.
While he can be foolish, she couldn’t take advantage of his situation.
He was such a brilliant person that he could have a bright future ahead of him. But why would he stoop so low to become her insignificant bodyguard?
Duan Yanbing looked at Ye Xingbei with a miserable smile, “Beibei, there’s no fairness or unfairness to what I want. Right now, my mind is chaotic, and I just want to find a place where I can settle down and live a simple life. Beibei…”
He pleaded with Ye Xingbei, his eyes filled with bitterness and helplessness: “Can’t you even fulfill this tiny wish of mine?”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
This is not a tiny wish, my friend.
That is a slavery contract!
If you sign it, you will serve me for life!
Ye Xingbei was speechless. After a while, she finally said, “How about this, let’s cool down for a bit. Be our guest here for now. If you really like the environment here and still insist on your decision today even after a year or so, then we’ll sign. Does that sound okay?”
Duan Yanbing lowered his gaze. “A year or so is too long. I fear I won’t be able to calm down, and my mental state might get compromised… Three months, can we do three months? If after three months, I still hold onto today’s decision, then we can sign the contract.”
