Chapter 134: Chapter 131: Mr. Rong, Can’t You Think Positively? (1)
Rong Mochen’s face was dark as he stared at her without speaking.
Jin Jumo glanced sideways, her eyes brushing over the laptop screen, momentarily unsure of how to begin.
"You only have this one chance. If you don’t speak now, even if you want to say it later, hold it in," Rong Mochen’s voice was solemn and severe.
Jin Jumo felt like he could explode at any moment tonight, as if he had eaten dynamite!
She couldn’t help but mutter under her breath. She’d only mentioned once that Tang Ruan was dear to his heart, was that worth giving her a hard time over? So petty!
"Mr. Rong, I’ve thought about it and feel it’s necessary to discuss some uncertainties regarding our marriage," Jin Jumo slightly adjusted her mindset and looked at Rong Mochen as she spoke.
Uncertainties?
Rong Mochen squinted, seeming somewhat interested, took a step back, and looked at her, "What are these uncertainties?"
Jin Jumo was very serious, "I feel that our marriage has too many variables, and I don’t have much sense of security. If you suddenly decide to change your mind and want a divorce after we’re married, what am I supposed to do?"
"Thinking about divorce before even getting married, should I see that as you being cautious or having premeditated intentions?" Rong Mochen’s expression was lukewarm, his long dark eyelashes drooping low, making it impossible for Jin Jumo to decipher his emotions.
Jin Jumo looked at him for a while before saying, "Mr. Rong, you should understand my concern. After all, with your status, whether it’s having an affair or getting a divorce, it all depends on your mood. No one can control you, and no one dares to. If one day you find me unpleasant, or fall for another woman and want to marry her, insisting on divorcing me. If I refuse, you won’t comply either, and at that time, if I dare not fall out with you, won’t I be the one suffering? Don’t you agree?"
"An affair?" Rong Mochen raised his eyes, looking coldly at Jin Jumo, a storm brewing in the depths of his dark eyes, suppressed without showing.
Uh...
Jin Jumo chuckled dryly, "The words may not be pleasant, but... it’s just a hypothetical scenario, don’t take it seriously."
"If it’s not true, why mention it?" Rong Mochen snorted softly.
"..." Jin Jumo twitched her mouth and after two seconds of silence said, "Just in case."
Rong Mochen lowered his gaze, "What is it you want?"
Jin Jumo’s eyes lit up, eagerly putting down her legs, holding the laptop as she got off the sofa, moved closer to Rong Mochen, and enthusiastically presented the laptop to him, "Mr. Rong, take a look at this. If you agree, let’s make it an agreement, sign, and seal it."
Jin Jumo, her eyes shining brightly, eagerly stared at the laptop screen, not noticing that Rong Mochen’s face had already turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, his tight lips coldly opened, "Prenuptial agreement, Party A Rong Mochen, Party B Jin Jumo. From the date of registering the marriage, if either Party A or B violates the following content, it shall be handled according to the principles of the agreement, and neither party shall have any objections."
"Mr. Rong, look, I’ve been fair. We both have to adhere to this agreement, not just restricting you alone," Jin Jumo said with a grin, assuming fairness.
"..." Rong Mochen gave her a cold glance, his dark eyes passing over with cold shadows, then continued to look at the content of the agreement.
1. If either Party A or B has an affair during the marriage, discovered by the other party, they may propose a divorce.
2. If either Party A or B has acts or tendencies of domestic violence during the marriage, and the other party cannot bear it, they may propose a divorce.
3. If either Party A or B forcibly restricts the other’s personal freedom and legitimate work aspirations during the marriage, and the other party cannot bear it, they may propose a divorce.
4. If either Party A or B has a bad habit during the marriage period that’s unbearable to the other party, they may propose a divorce.
5. During the marriage period, if...
After reviewing the agreement, Rong Mochen’s lips twisted mockingly, "Bad habit?"
Jin Jumo’s eyebrows twitched fiercely, awkwardly spread her hands, her eyes shifting guiltily, explaining, "Just those hobbies, like SM or something, cough..."
"..." Rong Mochen’s profile tightened, experiencing for the first time a strong desire to try all those "bad habits" mentioned by this woman right before him, intensely!
Jin Jumo dared not look at Rong Mochen’s face, which was already as cold as possible.
In fact, after more than a year of their relationship, besides being a bit forceful and having multiple positions, he didn’t really have any particularly perverse fetishes. The reason she included this clause was that she feared he might not be like that now but might get an unusual whim one day, cough, cough, cough...
Rong Mochen closed his eyes, his brows furrowed into a character shape, as he continued to read the handling principles below.
If there’s a situation where Content 1 occurs during the marriage, the one who had an affair must unconditionally agree to the divorce, and the custody of the children shall belong to the other party. The one who had an affair shall not have any objections and cannot use power to force the other party to give up custody, and, after divorce, cannot use means to interfere or make things difficult for the other party or undertake harassment and the like...
The handling principles are all more or less the same.
In short, if any of the above situations occur, they will be handled according to the above principles, with no objections from the other party.
The end of the document contains the signatures of both Party A and Party B as well as the signing date.
This simple document already possesses the preliminary norms of an agreement, showing how seriously Jin Jumo had thought it through.
After finishing the document, the hostility in Rong Mochen’s eyes dissipated quite a bit, though his expression remained tense.
He could guess the reason why Jin Jumo had drawn up such an agreement.
"Mr. Rong, have you finished reading?" After waiting for a moment, Jin Jumo opened her eyes wide and looked at Rong Mochen, asking softly.
Rong Mochen slightly furrowed his brows, turned his gaze to Jin Jumo, "Is this the guarantee you want?"
He actually wanted to say that even if he signed this agreement, if he chose not to acknowledge it, she would still have no recourse against him!
And actually, the agreement essentially boiled down to the issue of child custody. If they really ended up getting divorced, even if he agreed to let her have the child, the family’s elder would not agree!
At the same time, he noticed another issue.
From beginning to end, she never mentioned divorce compensation.
She neither asked for a substantial amount of money nor for property or similar guarantees.
All she wanted was the child and a peaceful, undisturbed life after the divorce!
Rong Mochen looked at Jin Jumo’s eyes, which were cautiously watching his reaction, "If I were you, I would ask for a considerable compensation."
Jin Jumo felt a jolt in her heart but smiled slightly on the surface, "So, Mr. Rong also thinks this agreement is feasible and has no issues?"
Rong Mochen stared at Jin Jumo for a moment, his thin lips curving coldly, and then snapped his laptop shut, "I won’t sign it."
"..." Jin Jumo was momentarily stunned, and then, particularly puzzled, looked at him, "Why?"
"No reason." Rong Mochen tossed the notebook onto the sofa, his hands coolly tucked into his trouser pockets, as he lifted his legs and walked out of the study.
Jin Jumo, unwilling to give up, bit her lip, picked up the notebook, and followed closely behind him, negotiating, "Mr. Rong, why won’t you sign it? Are you dissatisfied with the content of the agreement? It’s okay; if there’s anything you’re unhappy with, you can bring it up, and everything is negotiable."
"I’m not dissatisfied, just don’t find it necessary," Rong Mochen said indifferently, opening the door to the master bedroom and walking inside.
"How can it be unnecessary? I really think it’s necessary!" Jin Jumo protested, unconvinced.
Rong Mochen frowned, suddenly stopping in his tracks, and turned to look at Jin Jumo, who was puffing her cheeks in persistence, "Is it true that as long as I sign this agreement, you will completely dismiss the concerns about marrying me?"
Jin Jumo paused for a moment, then nodded resolutely.
Rong Mochen stared at Jin Jumo for a while and raised an eyebrow, "As you wish."
"..." The surprise came so suddenly that Jin Jumo didn’t react for a long while, and by the time she came to her senses, Rong Mochen had already walked into the bathroom to wash up.
Jin Jumo’s face flushed with excitement, and she made a silent "YES!" gesture in delight.
When Rong Mochen emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, he expected the now-satisfied Jin Jumo to be quietly resting in bed. Instead, he saw her stumbling, as if in a panic, rushing out of the closet, already changed out of her pajamas into outdoor clothes, her coat not even buttoned, as she charged straight towards the door.
His heart sank, and in a few strides, he caught up with her and pulled her body rushing out, "Where are you going?"
"Mr. Rong." Jin Jumo’s legs suddenly halted, Rong Mochen’s face flashed before her eyes, and she took a sharp breath, her eyes bright and astonishingly radiant. She grabbed his arm and, with a face constrained by some extreme joy, trembled breathlessly, "Mr. Rong, I need to go out; can the driver take me?"
"What can be so important that you must go out in the middle of the night? Go tomorrow!" Rong Mochen held her waist, his handsome face stern, intending to lead her back to bed.
"My grandfather woke up!" Jin Jumo clutched his arm tightly and said suddenly, with a voice quivering with excitement.
"..." Rong Mochen’s figure paused, and he slowly turned his eyes to look at Jin Jumo.
Jin Jumo’s eyes were red-rimmed, her long eyelashes trembling unsteadily, her expression joyous yet somewhat aggrieved, "Brother Ying just called me to say my grandfather has woken up, finally awakened..."
As Jin Jumo spoke these last words, her voice choked with sobs, "Mr. Rong, I need to go to the hospital, immediately."
"Wait for me!" Rong Mochen didn’t hesitate, released Jin Jumo, and quickly strode back into the dressing room. Within just two minutes, he walked back out.
When he reappeared, he had changed into a simple thin sweater and trousers, his strong arms holding a cashmere coat for Jin Jumo as he approached.
Jin Jumo stood there, bewildered, looking at him, "Mr. Rong, you..."
Rong Mochen took her hand and led her towards the door, "I’m going with you."
"..." Jin Jumo’s heartstrings trembled, her reddened eyes flickering as she looked at his deeply etched profile.
Noticing Jin Jumo’s gaze, Rong Mochen turned slightly to glance at her, his dark eyes half-closed, not saying anything, only tightening his grip on her hand.
Linx Hospital.
Jin Jumo and Rong Mochen hurried to the hospital, and as they just stepped into the lobby, they saw Ying Jingyao standing tall, waiting there.
"Brother Ying." Jin Jumo released Rong Mochen’s hand and walked anxiously in Ying Jingyao’s direction.
