What About Marriage?

Chapter 1

Song Ning was pacing the stairs of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Today was the day she and Fu Le would register their marriage which had been arranged by her mother when her mother was alive.

Song Ning and Fu Le were childhood lovers. Her mother's greatest regret was not being able to witness her marriage and Fu Le's. When her mother was alive, she and her mother had chosen this day together to register her marriage.

At this moment, a young freight forwarder hurriedly ran towards him. When he stopped in front of her, he looked at her before he glanced at the photo in his hand.

Song Ning immediately stopped pacing back and forth.

“Are you ... Miss Song Ning?” ask the deliveryman while wiping the sweat on his forehead.

Song Ning nodded. “Yes. I Song Ning.”

After obtaining confirmation, the delivery officer handed the documents to her. “Package.”

Song Ning was surprised. How did the delivery man know to look for her here? He looked at the name on the document before he saw the delivery man again.

The delivery clerk gestured her to see the document as she said, “The sender has a message for you. You need to open the file and view it.”

Song Ning was completely shocked when she opened the file and saw the contents. He looked at a stack of high-definition photos of the couple; they were none other than Fu Le and Feng Man. He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, he stuffed the photos into his bag.

After that, the delivery officer took two steps back. Then, she cleared her throat before she tried to imitate the voice of a woman and said, “Ning, Fu Le will not marry you. The person he loves is me. We've been together for half a year now. He just couldn't bear to tell the truth because of your mother. Just think... What kind of man wants to marry a fat woman like you who does not care about her lover?” After he finished speaking, he looked at Song Ning with an expression of pity.

Although her body was trembling, Song Ning's voice was calm as she said, “Only that?”

“Ya.” The delivery officer quickly nodded. She felt regret for having to pass on such an outrageous message to Song Ning. He bowed before he turned around and rushed away.

When Song Ning felt the scorching heat of the sun on her head, she placed the file over her head, using it to shade herself. Contrary to the heat, her tears flowed down her face like rain.

He pulled out his phone and dialed Fu Le's number, but he didn't answer his call. He did not give up and kept calling out to her repeatedly. After a while, the call finally connected.

However, before Song Ning could speak, Fu Le's voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “N-Ning, uh, I'm busy today. My friend is injured so I take care of him in the hospital. I will.. I will talk to you later.”.

Song Ning tried to remove the vibrations in her voice before she said, “Your friend who was injured? Are you talking about Feng Man?

“Fu Le, do you still intend to marry me another day? Or do you have no intention of marrying me at all? ”

Fu Le only hesitated for a moment before he said, “Ning, I think you will be able to live comfortably without me because you are capable and independent. You don't need me at all unlike ... unlike Feng Man who can't live without me .. “

Okay, I understand, Song Ning interrupted before she hung up. After which, he slowly crouched down with the phone in his hand as his heart throbbed in pain.

‘Fu Le, what do you mean by I'm too independent? That's just a weak excuse for you cheating!’

At this moment, two tall men wearing black suits were climbing the stairs.

The man in the lead solemnly said, “I married her just to fulfill my grandmother's wish. I even agreed to divorce her once Grandma recovered from her illness. What's up now? Does he think the money I gave him wasn't enough?”

The man behind explained with a reluctant expression on his face, “Ye Xin said he was a public figure and this marriage would greatly affect his career. He is currently competing for international awards so this is a critical time for him. She doesn't want negative publicity, and she doesn't want to be known as a divorced woman. Even if there is nothing between the two of you, the fans won't believe it. Mu Chen, why don't you call him? ” When he finished talking, he handed the phone to the man in front.

Upon hearing these words, Mu Cheng's expression instantly turned cold. However, the corner of her lips curved into a confident smile as she said, “I tolerated it when she used me for publicity, but now she refuses to do this for Grandma? Cheng Che, do I look stupid to you?”

Cheng Che sighed. “Young Master Chen, for the sake of your Grandmother, please beg Miss Ye.”

“Begging? He should be grateful that I will not bankrupt his family because of the friendship between our parents. Why should I beg him?” Mu Chen snorted.

Cheng Che said anxiously, “But you have to get married today! We have to stop your Grandma's hunger strike! I don't care. Since you have agreed to your Grandmother's request, you should do it in any way!”

Mu Chen frowned slightly as he lowered his gaze, deep in thought.

Meanwhile, Song Ning who was standing nearby overheard the conversation of the two men. With this, an idea came to his mind. He slowly got up before he turned around to look back. He froze when he saw the man behind him.

The tall man stood under the sign of the Civil Affairs Bureau with his back facing the sunlight cleanly and beautifully hanging by his side. The sun overshadowed its sharp features and highlighted its cold and noble temperament.

Song Ning narrowed her eyes as she gathered her courage to approach the man. Then, she said clearly even though her voice was soft, “Master, why don't we get married?”

‘Fu Le, you will regret missing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!’
