The staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau was also very satisfied. Every time she completed the procedures for a couple, she would get an additional pay for her performance. She put away the allocation acceptance letters, and then recited what she would say to every pair of official partners by heart.

“Miss Ye, Mr. Ye, congratulations on becoming an official couple protected by the country. This is your official match certificate. Please keep it well.

“An official match certificate isn’t a marriage certificate. It only means that the two of you are engaged now. In order to prevent any dissatisfaction, you’re given a year to spend time with and learn about each other. During this period of time, you can come to the Civil Affairs Bureau at any time and exchange the official match certificate for a marriage certificate.

“If the female party gets pregnant during this period and contributes to the country’s population, both of you will receive generous welfare and treatment.

“Of course, if the two of you realize that the other party is not suitable for you during your time together, you can request for an annulment a year later. However, the annulment will also require you to pay a fine of 10 million, just that there will be no other punishments, and you will also not be stripped of political rights, and so on…

“Also, during this period of time, you cannot be in other relationships. If the government finds out, you will be charged for cheating. If the evidence is conclusive, you will go to jail. Please be careful.

“If the two of you don’t have any other questions, Mr. Ye, you can bring Miss Ye home now. In the coming year, Miss Ye will have to live with you. The Civil Affairs Department may visit at any time.”

Ye Xingguang was still in shock that Ye Junqing actually signed the letter and she still hadn’t come back to her senses. She didn’t hear what the staff said at all.

She took the official match certificate and her mind went blank. She couldn’t think at all and couldn’t believe that she had become Ye Junqing’s official partner.

Was she lucky or unlucky?

…

Bang… Bang…

Thunder rumbled fiercely, accompanied by lightning. Soon, a torrential downpour started.

At the entrance of C University, eleven Rolls-Royce cars were waiting patiently in the torrential rain for Ye Xingguang as she returned to school for some paperwork.

Ye Junqing stared at the pouring rain outside the window. At the thought that a certain woman couldn’t go out on a rainy day at all, he couldn’t help but frown.

He was on a video call, and his brother, Ye Shiting’s voice came through.

“Are you sure you want to accept the Civil Affairs Bureau’s allocation because of me? I heard that Grandpa and Old Master Xia wanted to arrange a marriage between you and Xia Yanyan. This matter is going to be on the agenda soon. Don’t you like Xia Yanyan a lot? You even hired a designer to build a mermaid swimming pool at home six months ago.”

Who said that the mermaid swimming pool was built for Xia Yanyan?

Ye Junqing didn’t explain and only said, “The marriage between our families is just icing on the cake. It’s not indispensable. However, nothing can go wrong in your presidential election. I’ve already decided this. Brother, you don’t have to persuade me anymore.”

“So you only choose Ye Xingguang because of my presidential campaign? I heard from Fu Zuo that you walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau with your arm around her. You never hug women. I thought you fell in love with her at first sight…”

“How is that possible? How would I possibly fall for that kind of woman?”

Ye Junqing denied it with a firm attitude, leaning lazily against the back of the seat as he said casually, “I’m just putting on a show in the Civil Affairs Bureau. It’s also to let people know how cooperative I am with my obligations to the country, so that others won’t say that the brother of the presidential candidate is a stubborn man who practices bachelorism, dragging you down.”
