“All you need to do is sign it.” Suyang shook his head and turned to leave my room without explaining a word.

  “Hey! Don’t leave! Explain to me what this is!” I watched Suyang’s back view as I quickly climbed out of bed and followed him out with the document.

  He wasn’t hot tempered like I was. Suyang unhurriedly sat on the sofa as he calmly stated, “I formulated this contract last night. Since we are living underneath the same roof, there are rules that you must comply to, and things you’re forbidden to do.”


  I was annoyed and I began to flip through the document that was as thick as my thumb. I didn’t even read the content, but I had a rough idea as I flipped through the pages. By now, I had exhausted my patience.

  “There are two times more rules here than from my Elementary School, Middle School, High School, and University combined!” My hands were shaking, and the paper rubbing against each other created frictional noises. I was shocked beyond words. I was honestly curious on how he had written all this.

  “At the end of the day, I am a man and you are a woman. It is better we have established rules.” Suyang sat cross-legged on the sofa as he took a sip out of his coffee. He gave off a very cold vibe.

  “You’re drinking coffee so early in the morning? How tired are you?” I muttered as I sat down on a chair and decided to read the “contract”.

  Just as my butt was about to touch the chair, I felt a killer aura aiming straight at me on my right side. My entire body felt alert and I turned towards the source. Suyang was glaring at me viciously. I felt goosebumps.

  “W-what……is it?” Why was he staring at me so cruelly for no reason?

  “You’re sitting on my chair!” If Suyang wasn’t so stern about it, I would have thought he was joking. How do you distinguish between the chairs?

  “Your chair? Did you stick your name on it?”


  Suyang pointed behind me, “I did stick it.”


  I turned around. There was actually a sticky note with “Suyang” on it.

  “Well, you didn’t tell me……how was I supposed to know?……” I got up and went over to another chair. “This chair is not yours, right?”


  “That one is yours.” Suyang said in a very proper tone, “This kind of stuff has been mentioned in the contract. Based on what just happened, you should memorize the contract.”


  “Forget it. It’s not an office exam. Why do I need to memorize? Is this a home or hell?……” I complained as I sat down on the chair to read this modern version of an unequal treaty.

  Party A: Lin Yixin, Party B: Suyang

  Hereto declare that Party A and Party B is living together until Party A’s apartment has been restored.Party A must not enter Party B’s room whenever she wants. Party A will only enter when Party B gives her permission.The living room and the washroom are considered public settings. Party B permits Party A to use, but it must be clean afterwards. Messiness will not be tolerated.Aside from big furnitures, everything else is considered a personal possession. Party A and Party B must not mix between the two. Please place your own personal belonging in your personal space. Do not put your personal items in public space (the living room, the washroom)……

  As I kept reading, I felt my head expanding. I even had the urge to tear the document apart.

  At a quick pace, I rushed to continue reading the clauses.
