Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Let’s Go Home, Wife
Civil Affairs Bureau.
Su Zixi’s cheeks were red as she took the red marriage certificate that belonged to her, opened it, and saw the couple’s photo; He Jingyao had a tender and doting smile, inviting eyes to linger on his handsome face, while she… looked utterly stunned.
She immediately closed the red book with embarrassment!
She couldn’t believe that she had actually gotten married!
Su Zixi felt her entire being in a dizzy haze.
He Jingyao let out a soft chuckle, reached out to wrap his hand around her waist, and pulled her into his arms, “Let’s go home, wife.”
Su Zixi felt both ashamed and awkward, her lips moved, but she couldn’t bring herself to say the words “husband.”
How did she end up married! And to He Jingyao of all people!
This was a name she used to only see in magazines and news reports!
“Jingyao, that…” she stammered hesitantly, “although we are married, I am… cough, I haven’t graduated yet, so I should still stay in the dorm.”
He Jingyao didn’t seem surprised by her suggestion, but his brows furrowed slightly, “Now that your schoolmates and teachers all know you are my wife, it might not be very convenient if you stay at school.”
Su Zixi paused, right.
“Besides, you’re about to start working at HI, and you’ll need to take leave from school,” He Jingyao smiled faintly, “Why don’t you move in with me for a while until things settle down?”
Su Zixi was conflicted.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
It sounded good, but… why did it feel like this man was up to no good?
She stole a glance at He Jingyao and saw the man with a serene smile, making her seem overly sensitive.
Su Zixi’s cheeks grew warm as she picked at the lettering on the red book, “That… won’t I be a disturbance to you?”
“Of course not,” the man chuckled softly, “You’ve been to my house before; you should know it’s very large with many rooms.”
Su Zixi nodded involuntarily.
“My family employs a Michelin seven-star chef with unmatchable cooking skills. Plus, there’s a dedicated driver to take you to work every morning,” his voice grew more enticing, “What do you think?”
Su Zixi was somewhat allured, living in a large house, dining on the chef’s meals, having a personal driver… it all sounded really great.
She couldn’t help but nod again.
A glint of triumph flashed in He Jingyao’s eyes.
“Then, let’s go see your new room now. Uncle Li has already set it up. All your belongings from your family home and the dormitory have been moved there,” He Jingyao said with a slight smile.
Su Zixi’s eyes widened in shock!
“It’s one thing for them to move stuff from the Su Family home, but how did they get into my dorm?” Su Zixi panicked.
“You seem to have forgotten, you are now the Young Mistress of the He Family,” He Jingyao whispered into her ear.
Su Zixi covered her ears, suddenly deeply realizing the weight of the title “Young Mistress of the He Family.”
In the blink of an eye, she had become He Jingyao’s wife…
It felt like a dream.
…
On the way back, Su Zixi’s heart was still pounding; her hand rested on her purse, feeling the hard edges of the marriage certificate, and something indescribable settled in her heart.
However, thinking about everything that had just happened at the Su Family, her mood suddenly grew much heavier.
Ning Yichen… what was he feeling now?
Betrayed and deceived by Su Lianxi… would he be angry, or would he choose to forgive?
After all, he was the man who had once lovingly cared for and desired him, and even though their paths were destined to part, Su Zixi hoped he could find happiness.
What do you think?
