Chapter 33: Just This Happy?

Qin Wenhuo looked at the bright, beautiful girl standing before him.

To be honest—she was stunning!

Even prettier than the most gorgeous star of the performing arts troupe.

Though she appeared calm on the surface, he could still tell—she was extremely nervous at this moment.

Did she really want to get married this badly?

“If I hadn’t come today—”

Fu Mingxue’s tone was firm. “You would have come! This was your own schedule! Besides, there’s no such thing as ‘if’ in this world.”

“Marriage isn’t a game—”

“You’re a grown man, why are you being so wishy-washy? Just say yes or no! If you won’t do it, then forget it.” Wasn’t this just messing with her state of mind?

The corner of Qin Wenhuo’s mouth twitched.

Didn’t this girl know that you can’t tell a man he’s not up to it?

“I have two children—so in the future, I might not have any biological kids of my own.”

“As for kids, we can talk about that later. What I mean is—you’re overthinking it. Let’s agree to a one-year marriage contract. If either of us wants to end it after a year, we’ll just file for divorce.”

Kids—she definitely planned to have one herself.

In her past life, she raised someone else’s.

In this life, she wanted her own.

A man could be this or that, but when it came to children—she had to have her own.

If this man wouldn’t have one with her, she’d just find someone else!

No big deal.

Seeing the man frown, she said, “Don’t worry, if the time comes, I’ll be the one to ask for a divorce. It won’t affect you. And I won’t mistreat your two kids.”

Qin Wenhuo: …?

Was this girl really dead set on marrying him?

Or did she just need to get married right away, and if he refused, would she just find someone else?

For some reason, that’s exactly what he suspected.

He didn’t know why she was in such a hurry to get married—after all, she was about to start college.

Even if there were some rumors, it wouldn’t really affect someone who was leaving for university, would it?

“Did you bring your documents? If you’re ready, let’s go get the marriage certificate now.” Her household registration hadn’t been transferred to her school yet.

She could get the proof directly at the local office.

Qin Wenhuo: …?

He took a deep breath and looked at her. “If you really want to get married, then fine.”

Hearing this, Fu Mingxue couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

“So, did you bring the marriage health check report?”

“I did. How did you know?”

Fu Mingxue replied, “You came all this way, so you must have been pressured into it. Your family definitely made sure you had everything ready. It’s such a long trip, after all.”

Qin Wenhuo hadn’t expected her to be so sharp.

An hour later, the two of them walked out of the civil affairs bureau.

The first thing Fu Mingxue did was check the light screen—she saw that the countdown for her first marriage mission had disappeared, replaced by a message saying the task was complete.

She let out a huge sigh of relief.

Her life was safe now.

And the reward—a property deed—was right there, lying in her space.

Oh my god, if it weren’t for the situation, she’d have taken it out to admire it right away.

Qin Wenhuo looked at the marriage certificate in his hand—his feelings were complicated.

How did he end up married?

Wasn’t he here to break off the engagement?

He glanced at the girl beside him, who was beaming with joy, looking absolutely delighted.

“…?”

Was she really this happy to marry him?

“I’ll take you home.”

“—Alright.” Fu Mingxue actually wanted to tell him to just go do his own thing.

But then she remembered her mother at home.

If she really let him leave just like that, her mom would go crazy.

The two of them returned to the Fu house in silence."
