Chapter 1 Obtaining a Certificate
When Su Mansheng slammed the door and came out, he heard his stepmother's moderate voice from behind.
"Actually, that man is really nice. He is hard-working and down-to-earth. Although he is not tall and does not look very good, he has two apartments at home, so what else is there to choose from..."
Su Mansheng was so angry that he ran downstairs and hailed a taxi, clutching the household registration book in his bag.
"Go to the Civil Affairs Bureau!"
Feeling very depressed, she leaned her head against the car window, recalling what her father had said before.
"We are a family now. What will people say if you move out? Say your aunt moved in and forced you out? What do you want your aunt to think? How do you want your father to behave?"
"My brother only came to stay for a while during the holidays, and he sleeps in the living room, so it won't affect you."
"Anyway, you can't move out without getting married, and you can't let others gossip about our old Su family!"
Su Mansheng now frantically wants to move out of the two-bedroom and one-living house.
One reason was that she couldn't stand the hypocrisy of her stepmother who said one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes. The other reason was that one day she got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and saw her half-brother lying on the sofa in the living room watching a movie.
Porn!
That just grossed her out!
In this small house, her father's favoritism, her stepmother's hypocrisy, and the occasional lewd glances from older boys when they looked at her all made her feel suffocated!
She needs to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau now to get a marriage certificate with a man she has never met, and she does not want her stepmother to arrange an arranged marriage.
Half a month ago, she rescued an old lady who had fallen into the water from an artificial lake, and escorted her to the hospital to advance her medical expenses. The old lady who was out of danger praised her for her beauty and kindness. I heard that she didn't have a boyfriend.
No matter what, I would introduce my grandson to her.
She didn't agree at the time, but recently because she couldn't stay at home any longer, she thought that she might as well take this opportunity to get together, and maybe get married if the situation was right.
When the old lady learned that she had agreed to date, as if she was afraid that she would regret it, she immediately urged the two young men who had never met to get the certificate.
"Relationships can be cultivated slowly. I think back then, your grandfather and I got engaged at the age of thirteen, and we only met for the first time when we got married at the age of eighteen. After all these years, our relationship is still not very good!"
Her reasoning was consistent, and Su Mansheng had no room for refutation.
Now Su Mansheng stood anxiously at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau, waiting for her significant other.
After standing there for less than five minutes, she saw a young man getting out of a taxi on the side of the road.
The man is tall and slender, with delicate facial features, and a natural sense of elegance and distance around him that makes people dare not offend him.
He was so good-looking that even though he was only wearing a simple white shirt and black suit pants, he still caught the attention of the absent-minded Su Mansheng.
Su Mansheng came to his senses when he saw him opening the car door on the other side and helping an old lady out. He quickly greeted the old lady and said, "Grandma Zhou, you are here!"
When the old lady saw Su Mansheng, she was so happy that she held her hand and introduced with a smile: "Xiao Su, this is my older grandson who doesn't want a wife - Zhou Yanshi. Xiao Yan, this is the man who was born that day.
I fished Xiaosu out of the water and saved my life. I kid you not, it’s very beautiful!”
When Su Mansheng looked at Zhou Yan sheepishly, his handsome face made her feel as if she had won the lottery.
Can he find a wife if he looks like this? Even if he goes to the entertainment industry to become a star, there will be a lot of girls chasing after him, right?
Zhou Yanshi also frowned slightly and looked at Su Mansheng.
He worked hard for more than half a year and finally got a contract worth more than one billion yuan with "Feichi".
I finally found time to go to Australia for vacation. Unexpectedly, less than a day after landing, my father called me and said that my grandma fell into the lake when she went to the park. He was so frightened that he returned to the country without stopping.
As a result, he couldn't leave once he arrived. There were some problems at the Rongcheng branch. His father was busy with the headquarters and was too busy to deal with the problem, so he left the mess to him, saying in the name of "exercise more."
Grandma kept talking about introducing the girl who saved her to him.
——I’m already seventy, and you want me to die without seeing you get a wife, right? Can’t you just follow my old lady for once?!
When the old lady became fierce, Zhou Yanshi had absolutely nothing to do with her.
Now he looked at this girl who had been praised so highly by his grandma, and thought to himself that apart from her good looks, she didn't see anything outstanding about her. He didn't know how to coax her into being so devoted.
His scrutinizing gaze was too direct, which made Su Mansheng feel a little uncomfortable. She answered the old lady's words with a haha: "He looks... not very old."
The old lady retorted seriously: "You're twenty-six and you're not old yet? At his age, I've already given birth to three children!"
Zhou Yanshi: "..."
Su Mansheng: "..."
Now Su Mansheng was looking through the fresh marriage certificate, feeling as unreal as being in the clouds.
Are you really... married?
She raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Yanshi.
She always felt that her legal husband seemed a little unhappy, otherwise why he only nodded to her from beginning to end and didn't even smile when the registration photo was taken.
But that's okay, he's not interested in her, so if she gets divorced, there won't be so much involved.
She has already thought about it. If she and Zhou Yanshi don't get along well, then she will find a reason to divorce after she successfully moves out of home after she gets the 120,000 yuan dowry promised by her father.
She is a person who has no expectations for marriage, let alone a marriage with a man who received the marriage certificate on the first meeting.
The old lady deliberately gave them space to get along. After receiving the certificate, she excused herself from being sleepy and went home to take a nap, leaving Su Mansheng and Zhou Yan looking at each other.
"Let's go." Zhou Yanshi finally said calmly.
"Where to go?" Su Mansheng didn't know why.
"I'll buy you three pieces of gold. Isn't this what everyone wants when they get married?" There was no emotion in the voice, and I didn't know if he was unhappy.
If Zhou Yanshi doesn't get married now, he will be dragged back to Tong City to go on a blind date, lining up one after another until he is satisfied!
So his current task is to "get along well" with his legal wife, get along well with her, and find a chance to divorce later so that he can regain his freedom.
"Three golds? No, no, no, no, no!" Su Manshang quickly grabbed his arm.
Zhou Yanshi's eyes moved to her hands, and he frowned slightly, as if he was a little resistant to her touch.
Su Mansheng quickly let go of his hand: "Um... let's find a place to chat?"
She could see that Zhou Yanshi was not interested in her and had no enthusiasm at all.
She didn't want their relationship to be so awkward in the future, so it was better to say some things clearly in advance.
"There's a restaurant out front, let's chat while we eat." Zhou Yanshi also had something to say to her.
As soon as I walked to the door of the restaurant, I met Su Yuguo coming out of the supermarket next door.
"Mansheng, is this your... friend?"
When Su Yuguo looked Zhou Yan up and down, there was a strange light in his eyes.
Su Mansheng was shocked!
She hadn't reconciled her confession with Zhou Yanshi, so why did she meet her father?
"Uh...my friend, Dad, why do you come here to buy things?"
Zhou Yanshi's doubtful eyes fell on the lying Su Mansheng, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
"There's a discount here today." Su Yuguo shook the two large bags in his hand while still staring at Zhou Yanshi.
"Then you can take a taxi back. It's quite far." Su Mansheng said as he pulled Zhou Yanshi away quickly.
"Invite your friend to your house for dinner. I bought chicken today and will make a dry pot later." Su Yuguo seemed to realize that the relationship between the two was not simple.
Before Su Mansheng could refuse, Zhou Yanshi, who had been silent all the time, spoke first: "Thank you, uncle. Is it inconvenient?"
Being good-looking is a bonus, not to mention being so polite. Su Yuguo was quite satisfied with Zhou Yanshi: "It's convenient and convenient. Man Sheng's friends should go to his house often."
Zhou Yanshi said: "Excuse me for disturbing you." After saying that, he took the bag from Su Yuguo's hand and said softly to Su Mansheng: "Mansheng, let's go."
The call was really kind.
Su Mansheng felt that this person had some acting skills.
Dominated by two men, she took a taxi home, feeling more uneasy than when she came.
The uncle driver glanced at the people behind him in the rearview mirror, smiled and chatted.
