Volume 6 Chapter 83 - Betrothal gift (1/2)
“If this is the reason, you have even less to worry about.” Xu Yi revealed a faint smile as he took a document from his chest.
Elder Lisanya was confused when she took it, but after reading it with elder Illusia, they were both shocked.
“Chairman Xu, are you serious?” Elder Lisanya looked up and asked Xu Yi in a surprised voice, “You’re actually willing to transfer a portion of the military magic machine technology to us?”
“Of course I’m serious.” Xu Yi nodded, “Look, this transfer agreement already has my signature on it. As long as you sign it, this contract will become official. Elder Lisanya, elder Illusia, look over this contract and if you can accept it, how about you sign it?”
Elder Illusia and elder Lisanya were in a bit of disbelief as they picked up this «Military magic machine transfer agreement» and seriously read over it.
After half an hour, they finally finished reading it.
After thinking for a bit, elder Lisanya cleared her throat to ask, “Chairman Xu, you only stated that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce would give us some military magic machines, but you didn’t state a price. I’m afraid…..this isn’t right, right?”
“It’s because the price I want you to pay isn’t suited for being added to a contract.”
Xu Yi revealed a faint smile. In front of the confused looks of the two elders, he walked out of the tree house and pulled Agnes who was holding the child beside the moon well in.
“Elder Illusia, according to our human customs, when we get a wife, we have to give some property to the wife’s family as a betrothal gift. After Agnes married me, I’ve never thought of this, which was my mistake. Now I want to use the thing in this contract as the betrothal gift, what do you think?”
Elder Illusia looked at Xu Yi in surprise before looking at Agnes and finally looking down at the contract in her hand. She took a soft breath and let out a sigh, “Chairman Xu, your human customs really make people feel uncomfortable. But…..Alright. Agnes is already married to you, she shares life and death with you, being together for all times. Since you’re willing to do this for her, I’ll accept.”
“Many thanks for the elder’s support.” Xu Yi gave a serious bow to elder Lisanya.
“Chairman Xu, could it be that you only want to work with the Night Song Tribe?” Elder Lisanya asked in a deep voice on the side.
Xu Yi revealed a smile and turned to give elder Lisanya a bow before saying in a serious voice, “Elder Lisanya, after being with Tvisti for some time now, I already have strong feelings for her. I want to be with her forever, so I’m asking you to allow me to be with her for the rest of our lives.”
Hearing Xu Yi’s words, the three elves in the room were stunned.
Elder Lisanya was surprised for a bit before asking in a voice filled with disbelief, “Chairman Xu, you mean……you mean that you want to marry Tvisti?”
“I want this very much.” Xu Yi said with a nod.
“This……” Elder Lisanya had a rare bit of panic before calming down, looking very happy.
She had put Tvisti by Xu Yi’s side just for this to begin with.
“Alright, I agree.”
Elder Lisanya was very direct, not like the elves that normally stalled. Seeing that Xu Yi’s request matched her intent, she immediately agreed.
“So this contract is also your betrothal gift for Tvisti?” Elder Lisanya waved her hand over the military magic machine transfer document.
“Yes.”
Elder Lisanya looked at the surprised Agnes and couldn’t help giving a laugh. Then she shook her head and said with a sigh, “Chairman Xu, you really are willing to pay for Agnes.”
Xu Yi immediately said with a serious look, “I just said it, Agnes is my wife and she has my child, so they are my dear family members. For them, it doesn’t matter how much I have to pay. As for Tvisti, I am sincere towards her, there is no other reason.”
“Is that so?” Elder Lisanya looked at Xu Yi with a gaze of deep meaning, but she didn’t say anything else.
Elder Illusia was silent for a bit before pulling Agnes aside. It was clear that she wanted to talk to Agnes about something.
