Compared to a grand banquet...

Getting a marriage certificate is relatively simple.

However, even a well-known young master in the Jing circle would not be able to call out "wife" in a way that was truly fitting.

Just like everyone else, they also need to sit obediently in the waiting area and wait for the couple in front of them to complete their procedures.

Leave the room where ID photos are taken.

Shu Yi glanced at the Crown Prince beside her, whose face was dark with anger, and smiled at the trembling staff on the other side, then whispered words of comfort.

"It's okay, we'll be done in a bit. There are a lot of people today, and we arrived later, so we'll definitely have to wait in line."

"Young Master Yuno, please don't be angry."

As he spoke, staff member Wu Geng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued to explain cautiously.

"One of our colleagues' fathers is sick today, and there are so many newlyweds. But it will be over soon. Once the couple in front of us finishes, you and Miss can go up and get ready."

After a cursory glance, the young master frowned in annoyance.

"If you don't have enough staff, can't you hire more people? You're all bloated and lazy, doing nothing but drinking tea and reading newspapers all day, aren't you?"

"Yes, yes, you're right, we'll make the changes." Noticing that the newlyweds ahead had finished their business and were leaving, Wu Geng quickly stood up with a smile, "Young Master Youye, Second Miss, we can go and get ready now."

Pulling Shu Yi up and leading her forward, Zhang Youye whispered to Wu Geng again, "Keep this a secret for now. If the news gets out, I'll come looking for you first."

"Understood, understood, Young Master Youye, please rest assured, I will keep it a secret," Wu Geng hurriedly assured him.

After completing all the formalities quickly, while Wu Geng was explaining things to the staff, Shu Yi was pulled into a separate cubicle by Zhang Youye.

Seeing that no one was around, she asked curiously, "Your second uncle also holds a position in the Civil Affairs Bureau? How come everyone here listens to you so much?"

Turning his head, he met her curious gaze. Zhang Youye slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth, softening his expression.

"Just remember, on some levels, money alone isn't enough; you also need power. And our two families have both power and money. So, you understand?"

As expected, this is the renowned Zhang family of Jingnan.

On second thought, Shu Yi frowned and asked again, "But aren't you worried about making enemies by treating these employees this way?"

"There's nothing to worry about."

He chuckled in response, then leaned back lazily in his chair, casually crossing his legs. A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes, and his tone was nonchalant and unrestrained.

"To put it bluntly, the Qin family has been able to sit at the top for so long, and they can't do anything about it. What kind of trouble can these people possibly cause?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than there was a knock on the door of the cubicle.

Seeing Wu Geng walk up to her with two bright red certificates in his hand, her previous displeasure immediately vanished.

After taking the marriage certificate and carefully examining the cover page for a while, Zhang Youye suddenly frowned.

"Honey, the photo didn't turn out well."

Peeking at their first photo together, Shu Yi said, "It's a great photo. I thought your hair would stand out too much, but it looks quite nice."

Wu Geng's eyes widened when he saw two important figures get out of their car at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

The two characters are incredibly handsome and stunningly beautiful.

Comparable to a major celebrity in the entertainment industry.

The image is one where any random group photo can be used directly by a photo studio as an advertising photo.

Even the person who just took the photo had a slight tremor in their hand because of the two people's overwhelming aura.

It's not that the photo was bad.

Hearing the two discussing the photo, Wu Geng mustered up the courage to take a look and chuckled.

"Young Master Youye, you're overthinking it. Look at how naturally beautiful your wife is, and how handsome you are. As for me, I could be used in a promotional photoshoot, wouldn't you say..."

Upon noticing Zhang Youye's sudden change in expression, Wu Geng realized he had said something wrong and quickly fell silent.

He even glanced at Shu Yi with a guilty look.

Just as he was trying to figure out which sentence he had said wrong, a calm and smiling male voice rang in his ears.

"What did you just call my wife?" The speaker's tone seemed to subtly shift.

He exchanged a glance with Shu Yi, thinking to himself that the Crown Prince's habit of switching between a stern face and a smile was truly unpredictable.

Scratching his forehead, Wu Geng mustered his courage to explain.

"Young Master Youye, did I say something wrong? Shouldn't I have addressed you as 'Young Madam'? I'm sorry, I didn't understand your family's rules. I thought that once we got the marriage certificate, I should change how I addressed you. Second Miss, please don't take offense, I..."

Seeing Wu Geng's terrified expression, Shu Yi quietly tugged at Zhang Youye's sleeve, looking rather helpless.

"Alright, look how scared you've made him. He didn't say anything wrong."

Because of his extremely natural address of "Young Madam," Zhang Youye inexplicably felt extremely comfortable and at ease.

She waved to interrupt Wu Geng before he could finish speaking, and put the marriage certificate in her hand into Shu Yi's backpack.

Zhang Youye gripped the young mistress's hand tightly, his clear, dark eyes shining brightly, and the corners of his lips curving upwards to the heavens.

"Let's go, my young mistress."

"Let your husband take you home."
