That's not the case.
She detested and loathed Qin Yunxi; how could she be harmed?
Grace leaned against the wall, a helpless anxiety on her face. "Don't worry, I won't like him."
Caroline heard the annoyance in her friend's voice and knew she was troubled by his persistence. She advised, "You two are not from the same world. Don't force it."
"Qin Yunxi is too much of a playboy. You can't control him."
In this world, no woman could control Qin Yunxi.
He was an untamed wild horse. While being with him was exciting and wild, it was also fraught with danger. In the end, one might end up shattered.
Grace said softly, "I know. I've never thought about getting married in my life."
Caroline: "..."
Neither had she.
Two women, despairing of love or unable to attain it, fell into a shared silence.
Grace looked out at the scenery, her thoughts in disarray. "Caroline, what should I do to get rid of a man?"
She was truly at her wit's end.
Caroline was the most knowledgeable about men among their friends. She must have a way, right?
"Hmm..." A thousand thoughts flooded Caroline's mind.
The methods varied for men of different personalities. A philandering scoundrel like Qin Yunxi was the easiest to deal with!
Caroline said, "The best way to get rid of him is to marry him."
Grace: "????"
What?
Had she heard correctly?
Caroline must be joking with her.
Grace said with a mournful face, "Stop teasing me. I'm really troubled!"
Caroline chuckled lightly. "I'm not teasing you. I'm serious. For a playboy like Qin Yunxi, if you show that you want to marry him, he'll be so scared he'll wet himself and retreat immediately."
Grace's expression remained grim. "He said he wants to marry me."
Caroline dismissed it. "He's just saying that. Those sweet words are just his tactics to woo you."
"Do you know how Qin Yunxi pursued me?"
Grace shook her head. "No."
Caroline continued, "He stood at my door early in the morning, sent me flowers, and said I was the most charming woman he had ever seen. He also said I had captured his heart and soul."
"To pursue me, he took me around the world in a helicopter."
"To get into my bed, he didn't even mind being the third party."
Grace: "————"
Scumbag!
Damn scumbag!
Disgusting, damn scumbag!
Grace's skin crawled, and she shivered uncontrollably. "How can he be so cheap!?"
Caroline blinked, amused by her friend's righteous indignation.
"Pfft—"
"Hahahahaha—"
After a few hearty laughs, Caroline cleared her throat and teased, "Tell me, how did you provoke him to make him cling to you like this?"
Grace's thoughts froze.
She would never forget that bright, sunny festival, which marked the beginning of her nightmare.
"I—"
"I kicked him, right in front of his friends and family, and kicked him into the river."
"I also slapped him."
"Then he said he wasn't a man if he didn't chase me."
If she had known she would attract such a devil, she would have endured it, endured it, and endured it more. She definitely wouldn't have kicked Qin Yunxi so decisively.
But there was no "if only" in life, nor was there any regret medicine to buy.
What a painful realization!
"Pfft—"
"Hahahaha—"
Caroline burst into laughter again, tears almost streaming from her eyes. "I knew it! How could Qin Yunxi suddenly change his ways and his taste? It turns out you hurt his male pride."
"If he doesn't win you over and sleep with you, if he doesn't make you fall for him, if he doesn't regain his masculine dignity, he will absolutely not give up on you."
Grace: o(╥﹏╥)o
She really wanted to cry and stab herself with a fork.
She already realized her mistake.
"What should I do?" Grace was helpless and terrified. She didn't want any connection with him!
Caroline stopped laughing and offered sincere advice, "Listen to me. Make him marry you. Go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, go to the embassy, and complete the marriage procedures."
