However, Yan Wen shook his head, his gaze resolute. "A man's word is his bond. Regardless of my future station, a promise made is a promise kept. I am willing to put it in writing today as proof!"
Outside, the Shadow Guard was confused. "What is the Second Miss trying to do?"
Zhou Cangyan's cold eyes swept over the inner room. He turned and walked toward the outer chamber. "Have a physician check her pulse."
"Yes."
'What she did was none of his business. He had come here for only one reason.'
Inside the room, Yan Wen finally gritted his teeth and signed the contract with Song Lianhe. It was for life.
Song Lianhe had been quite reasonable, however. The contract stipulated that if he were to pass the examinations and become an official, all his time outside of official duties would be at her disposal, provided it did not interfere with his rest.
Yan Wen agreed to every last clause.
'After all, the debt of saving his life was the greatest of all!'
