Chapter 14 Aren’t You Going to Marry Me?
Chunzhi didn't expect Huo Qi to come out suddenly. She had clearly told him that someone was coming and asked him to stay in the room and not come out.
Aunt Li and Li Jun looked at Huo Qi twice, then shifted their gaze to Chunzhi.
As if trying to read something from her face.
Huo Zheng's gaze also stayed on Chunzhi.
The midday sun is strong, shining across the courtyard.
The gazes of several people cast upon Chunzhi seemed to have substance.
For some reason, Chunzhi suddenly felt a little embarrassed and guilty, as if she had hidden a strange man at home and was discovered.
She quickly explained, "Auntie Li, don't misunderstand me. His name is Huo Qi. He fainted at my doorstep two days ago. I saw he was seriously injured, so I rescued him..."
Chunzhi is a girl, so since she said that, it must be true.
Aunt Li didn't suspect anything and said immediately, "Chunzhi, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can a girl like you just casually rescue a man? Not to mention that he might be a bad man, even if he is a good one, it's really not right for a girl like you to live alone with a man of unknown origin. In my opinion, it's better to send him away as soon as possible."
Huo Zheng frowned slightly when he heard this, feeling very unhappy.
How can anyone control Chunzhi?
We even want to send him away. What kind of person is he? He wants to be the boss of others.
Chunzhi said, "I have two rooms here. He can live in one and I can live in the other. It won't be a problem. As soon as his injury heals, I'll let him go."
Aunt Li wanted to say something else.
Huo Zheng suddenly said, "Didn't you say you wanted to marry me?"
Aunt Li exclaimed, "Ah!" "Chunzhi, you... you're not interested in our Li Jun, are you?"
Li Jun was also a little anxious, "Miss Chunzhi, what exactly are you planning?"
Chunzhi didn't know what Huo Qi was thinking.
When I discussed a fake marriage with him yesterday, he looked reluctant.
Why now...
Here to make trouble again!
Chunzhi said, "The government only gave me three days, and today is already the second day. I'm afraid it's too late, so..."
Huo Zheng said, "So you cast a wide net and marry whoever you catch?"
"no……"
Chunzhi couldn't say in front of Aunt Li and the others that her marriage with Huo Qiti was obviously a fake one.
But Huo Qi was as aggressive as if he had caught his wife cheating on him.
Aunt Li's eyes moved back and forth between Chunzhi and the man in the wheelchair. She had to admit that the man was really handsome. Even the top scholar was slightly inferior to him, not to mention her nephew from her natal family who was dark-skinned and spent all day fishing and drying nets.
To be honest, judging by their looks, there is no comparison.
But no matter how handsome this man is, he is still a disabled person in a wheelchair.
Aunt Li quickly advised, "Chunzhi, a woman's marriage is a lifelong event. You can't just focus on a man's good looks. Good looks can't make a living. Our Li Jun may not be that good-looking, but he's honest and efficient at work. He's the kind of man you should choose as a husband..."
Chunzhi said softly, "I know, Aunt Li, you and Brother Li go back first, I will explain everything to him first."
"Okay, then we'll go back first." Aunt Li said, "The government gave you three days, but there's only one left. You have to give me a definite answer before nightfall. Getting married is a big deal. Even if it's just a simple ceremony of worshipping heaven and earth and setting up two tables of wedding wine, we have to prepare in advance."
Chunzhi said "hmm" and walked the Li family's aunt and nephew out.
Before Aunt Li went home, she pulled Chunzhi aside and said a lot of things, such as "The more handsome a man is, the less reliable he is. Look at the number one scholar."
And "This man's background is unknown. How can he be as reliable as my Li Jun who knows everything about him?"
She even said, "Look, he's seriously injured. He might have to use a wheelchair in the future. Even if you're capable, you can't always support him, right?"
Anyway, her Li Jun is perfect in every way, but this man in the house has nothing good about him except his handsome face.
Chunzhi finally sent Aunt Li and Li Jun away, closed the gate, and walked back to the yard. She saw Huo Qi's face was as gloomy as water, and his handsome face had become as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Well..." Chunzhi tried to explain, "Auntie Li is just a little wary of others, she doesn't mean any harm."
Huo Zheng looked up at Chunzhi and said stiffly, "Aren't you going to marry me?"
Chunzhi didn't expect him to speak again, and say the same thing.
"It's a fake marriage." She couldn't help but correct him, "And you didn't agree to it either."
Huo Zheng frowned slightly, "If I don't agree, will you find someone else?"
"If you don't agree, I can only find someone else..."
Chunzhi felt that the man's question was simply incomprehensible.
However, she could propose a fake marriage to Huo Qi, but not to Mr. Zhou, Mr. Chu, or Li Jun just now.
Because they are all from Linshui Town, they marry to live together and continue the family line.
Only the Huo Qi in front of her was an outsider.
After my injury heals, I will leave here.
It would be best if I could marry Huo Qijia and hide it from everyone so that I can avoid this imprisonment.
So Huo Qi is Chunzhi's first choice.
But if he really doesn't want to, Chunzhi can only marry someone else.
Huo Zheng said unhappily, "Are you so anxious?"
"Of course I'm anxious," Chunzhi said, "of the three days the government gave us, only one day remains."
She whispered, "You're going to have to pay a fine soon, and it's not you who's going to be arrested and put in jail."
Huo Zheng had excellent hearing and could even hear Chunzhi's whispers clearly. He immediately said, "..."
He didn't speak for a long time.
Chunzhi walked up to him and asked softly, "So, are you willing to have a fake marriage with me?"
Huo Zheng didn't answer but asked, "If I hadn't come out just now, would you have agreed to marry that Li guy?"
Chunzhi was silent for a moment and said "hmm".
Among the few candidates, Li Jun was her best choice.
Huo Zheng never thought that one day he would be compared with a fisherman.
This girl is really efficient. If one thing doesn't work out for her, she'll move on to the next one.
Huo Zheng thought that just because that lady was not Chunzhi's elder, he had to let her decide to let him go, and not let Chunzhi marry that man named Li.
But this was also the first time he was married.
Even if it's fake, you can't be so casual.
Chunzhi secretly observed Huo Qi's expression and asked softly, "Have you changed your mind and are you willing now?"
Huo Zheng wanted to nod, but he felt a little awkward. He looked up at the sky and said, "Why don't you beg me quickly?"
Chunzhi understood and immediately said, "I beg you, Huo Qi, Brother Huo... just have a fake marriage with me."
Huo Zheng glanced at her and said, "Since you've begged me so sincerely, I'll begrudgingly allowed to be your fake husband and wife for a few days."
