Song Ning got up and sat on the back seat, and amidst the envious gazes of everyone, Huo Beian rode away on his bicycle.
Song Ning sat sideways on the back seat. Huo Beian was riding very fast, which startled Song Ning, who exclaimed, "Slow down!"
"Then put your arms around my waist."
Song Ning had no choice but to hold onto his waist, and in doing so, Huo Beian rode even faster.
He was extremely pleased with himself.
I finally got my wife.
The two arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Standing at the door, Huo Beian looked at Song Ning with a serious expression, "Are you really sure? Once you get the marriage certificate, you can't get a divorce."
Song Ning smiled slightly, with a hint of playfulness, "That's the question I should be asking you. If you marry a woman like me with a bad family background, your chances of promotion are over."
Huo Beian straightened his back and cleared his throat. "To be honest, what's stopping me from getting promoted right now isn't you, it's my age."

Huo Beian took her hand. "Do you have any other doubts?"
Song Ning was a little shy, but she still mustered up the courage to speak up, since it was better to make everything clear before marriage.
"You know me, I'm a pampered young lady, I've never lifted a finger to do housework. I'm worried that I won't fit into your family and won't be able to take good care of you."
"What's the big deal? I can cook, I can do laundry. I can do anything except have children. Don't worry."
After Huo Beian finished speaking, he continued, "Once we get married, you'll come with me to live in the military base, and there won't be any mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship."
"Besides, you can have the child if you want, or not if you don't. It's all up to you."
Song Ning was touched when she heard this.
After all, feudal ideas were very prevalent in that era, and many men only wanted to marry a wife to have children, do housework, and be a maid.
Huo Beian completely overturned her perception of men of this era, and she actually developed a strong liking for him.
