Seeing them come in and sit down, the staff member respectfully handed them two sheets of paper, with a warm yet tactful smile on his face, speaking softly as if afraid of disturbing the couple: "Mr. Fu, Ms. Su, please sign your names on these documents. I will stamp them later, and that will be done."
Fu Huaijin took it and glanced at it quickly, a faint smile appearing on his lips, before signing his name in a few quick strokes.
Su Yuxi also picked it up and glanced at it; it was clearly marked as a marriage registration form.
"What the hell?" She reacted as if she had touched a hot potato, throwing the papers in her hand aside and jumping off the stool in surprise.
"marry?"
Why get married?
Seeing her resistant reaction, Fu Huaijin frowned. He bent down, picked up the paper, placed it intact on the table, and lightly twirled it between his fingertips: "You just accepted my betrothal gifts."
The meaning is that once you receive the betrothal gifts, you naturally have to register for marriage.
Su Yuxi paused slightly, then pressed the backpack behind her: "That's right, 5 billion is the bride price. If I accept it, I have to marry someone else."
But... this is too fast!
"Come and sign." Fu Huaijin held out his hand to her, knowing that she would find it hard to accept at first, but she had to accept it.
He personally brought her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to show her enough respect; otherwise, anyone could have easily handled this matter.
Su Yuxi's eyes were full of conflict, and she stood still.
Fu Huaijin approached her, took her slightly cool hand, forcefully pulled her to sit down in a chair, picked up a pen and put it in Su Yuxi's hand, whispering in her ear: "Sign it, and be good."
Su Yuxi turned her head to meet his sincere eyes, forced a smile, and timidly asked, "Is it okay if I don't sign?"
Fu Huaijin raised his hand and gently touched her hair, his eyes filled with a gentle smile. He seemed to dote on the girl in front of him, but for some reason, that warm smile sent a chill down one's spine.
"It must be signed."
"You've accepted the ring and the betrothal gifts, so tell me, do you want to sign this document or not?"
He paused, then said, "If you don't sign, you'll have to return all of this. Are you willing to do that?"
Su Yuxi shook her head violently; she definitely didn't want to.
The staff member's smile was awkward; they couldn't understand what the two were doing. The man was handsome and tall, and the woman was stunningly beautiful—they were a match made in heaven. They had already given the betrothal gifts and rings, so why didn't the woman want to register the marriage?
Why?
This is a very important person, would anyone not want to marry him?
Fu Huaijin's lips curled slightly, revealing a confident arc of certainty: "Then sign."
Su Yuxi lowered her eyelids slightly, concealing the conflicted emotions in her eyes. Her slender fingers gripped the pen tightly, her gaze fixed on the signature section. Her thoughts raced through her mind, and unconsciously she signed her name, "Su."
"Aren't we moving too fast?"
"The relationship is unstable, and things are likely to go wrong in the future." She wanted to try to salvage the situation a little longer.
Fu Huaijin gently squeezed her shoulder: "Our relationship is very stable, sign it, nothing will happen."
Su Yuxi's face scrunched up like a bitter gourd as she secretly lamented that she probably couldn't escape today.
She bit her lower lip lightly and, under everyone's expectant gaze, signed another character, Yu.
There's one last word; once you sign it, you'll truly become someone's wife.
Fu Huaijin's breathing became slightly rapid, and his heart jumped into his chest. He was just one word away from finishing.
"Miss Su, please sign it. Mr. Fu is such a good person, you can't find one even with a lantern. We should cherish what we have and appreciate the person in front of us."
"Look, Mr. Fu cherishes you so much, what else do you have to worry about? The two of you will definitely have a happy and fulfilling life with many children and grandchildren." The staff member showered her with mindless flattery, and the others quickly echoed her sentiments.
They couldn't understand what there was to consider now. With Fu Huaijin's face and status, the number of people who wanted to marry her could circle the earth three times. They wished they could just go up to her, grab her hand, and sign their names.
Su Yuxi parted her lips slightly, wanting to say something more, but no words came out. She knew full well that Fu Huaijin was her best shortcut; by signing the contract, she only needed to stay for another two or three years...
The air seemed to freeze.
Time passed second by second.
Finally, under everyone's intense gaze, a... fell.
Everyone present breathed a heavy sigh of relief. The others were relieved and congratulated, while Su Yuxi was finally free from having to make a choice.
"Okay, please wait a moment." The staff member took back the two forms as if they had found a treasure, and quickly operated the machine. In less than three minutes, two freshly printed marriage certificates were in their hands.
"Wishing you both a happy marriage, a lifelong bond, a happy life together, and many children..." The staff member uttered these blessings as if they were free after handing out the marriage certificates.
Fu Huaijin, who always presented a cold and aloof demeanor, surprisingly smiled at a strange woman for the first time. His smile was warm and sincere, like a tender bud breaking through the soil in spring, warming people's hearts.
Because he genuinely accepted this blessing this time.
The staff were completely stunned, standing there unable to move for a long time.
After she left, her boss came over and gave her a push.
"Yang Juan, what are you doing? Are you crazy? Come to my office after get off work, something good has happened." The boss happily informed him and then turned to go to his office.
Su Yuxi was dragged out and shoved into the car in a daze.
Fu Huaijin felt an unprecedented sense of relief as he held the two certificates in his hands.
This girl finally belongs to me.
Su Yuxi blinked and reached out to take it to look at it, but Fu Huaijin moved it away as soon as she touched it, his voice tight: "I'll hold the certificate. You're always so forgetful, it'll be troublesome if you lose it."
He put the marriage certificate into his inner pocket and pressed it close to his heart: from now on, he was a married man.
Su Yuxi was quite speechless. It could disappear just by looking at it. This thing wasn't made of sugar; it couldn't possibly melt.
Fu Huaijin didn't care. After sending her home, he told her to wait at home while he went out to take care of some things.
As soon as the person left, Su Yuxi immediately wilted like a frostbitten eggplant, lying listlessly on the garden rocking chair, staring at the sky in a daze.
Seeing her dejected appearance, the weasel eagerly ran over to examine her.
"What's wrong with you? You look like you've been drained of all your energy after going out." Shouldn't she be the one draining other people's energy?
Su Yuxi withdrew her gaze and sighed heavily: The bride price has been received and the marriage certificate has been issued, there's nothing more to think about.
"I registered my marriage with Fu Huaijin."
Lingyou wasn't too surprised after hearing this: "Isn't this something that was bound to happen sooner or later? Whether you get married sooner or later, you're getting married anyway. The way you look, people who know you're getting married will think you just came back from a funeral."
Su Yuxi was seething with anger, and this little thing was still cursing her so venomously.
She clutched the rat-like thing in her hand, then raised it high and threw it into the water: "Shut up."
