Chapter 6: Marriage Certificate

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Old Madam Fu wanted to introduce Ning Xiang to her family as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the rest of the Fu family was not around.

They knew that Fu Ze would marry a woman, but they did not expect him to act so quickly, so they were not prepared.

Therefore, the gathering was set for the next day. A few people doing business overseas immediately postponed work and booked a plane ticket back.

They were also very curious about the woman who could capture Fu Ze’s heart.

The old lady held Ning Xiang’s hand and chatted for a long time until Fu Ze came over and interrupted their conversation.

“Mom, we still have to register our marriage tomorrow. Let Xiangxiang rest early.”

Fu Ze had changed out of his suit and was dressed casually. It softened his usual sharpness along with his mature unapproachable aura. He looked more like a twenty-three or twenty-four-year-old young man.

He had just showered and leaned against the door with his arms crossed. He said lazily, “Anyway, she’s going to be family, so you have plenty of time to chat.”

Qiao Yun slapped her thigh. “It’s my fault for holding her up. I couldn’t help chatting longer since we hit off unexpectedly well. In this case, please have an early night.”

Ning Xiang smiled and held Qiao Yun’s hand tightly. “I felt close to you the moment I saw you. I didn’t expect it to be so long. Mom, I’ll go back first. We’ll talk tomorrow.”

Qiao Yun did not hide her admiration. “Go on, my child.”

She always trusted Fu Ze’s taste. Before she met Ning Xiang, she already had a good impression of her.

Now that they had met and chatted for almost the entire afternoon, she liked Ning Xiang even more.

She was beautiful and intelligent. Some women were incapable of thinking independently and seemed ungracious, but she was nothing like them.

She had a total of four sons, and her youngest son, Fu Ze, was the most capable. It was just that he did not get close to women and she could get worried sometimes.

He had quietly found himself a nice girl and now they were getting married tomorrow!

The next day, Ning Xiang woke up early to do her makeup.

Fu Ze was a light sleeper. When he sensed movement, he opened his eyes and looked at her back. “Aren’t you going to sleep for a while more?”

Ning Xiang took a coral-colored lipstick and applied it unhurriedly. “I’m not free.”

Fu Ze got up and the blanket slipped off his body, revealing his perfect figure, but he paid no attention to it. Instead, he got up to wash up unhurriedly.

Ning Xiang looked at him in the mirror and paused for a few seconds before continuing to put on makeup.

Fu Ze was half-naked, wearing only a pair of loose gray sweatpants. He walked to Ning Xiang’s side with a refreshing mint smell. He leaned over the back of the chair and looked at her in the mirror. “Nervous?”

Ning Xiang chuckled. “My sister and the others won’t just sit and wait for death. i just need to be mentally prepared for it.”

Fu Ze lifted a lock of her long hair and stroked it with his fingertips. He said casually, “Are they worthy of being mentioned by you? Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”

“If you have to handle everything, why do you need me as a shield?”

Ning Xiang tilted her head slightly, and her hair fell from his fingertips. She looked at him with a faint smile.

Fu Ze’s eyes darkened as he chuckled. “Got it.”

There were not many people at the Civil Affairs Bureau at this time. Ning Xiang and Fu Ze quickly completed the registration process. After leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, Fu Ze left to deal with some matters at the company.

After Fu Ze left, Ning Xiang was surrounded by reporters who suddenly appeared.

“Miss Ning, is it true that you came to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get your marriage certificate with Mr. Fu?”

“There’s a rumor that Mr. Fu wanted to marry Miss Ning Lian initially. Instead, you interfered and schemed against Mr. Fu using underhanded means forcing him to marry you. Do you have any comments about this?”

“May I ask how you and Mr. Fu met? Are you pregnant? Is that why you’re getting married?”

“You just severed ties with the Ning family. Does this have anything to do with today’s marriage? Do you know that many people say you’re an ingrate who chose self-interest over family?”

Sharp questions were thrown out one after another, but the female lead they questioned did not lose her cool at all.

Ning Xiang only looked at them calmly until their voices gradually softened. Only then did she reply firmly and calmly, “Firstly, my husband and I are in love with each other. The marriage certificate is also carried out on the basis of mutual consent, so there’s no need for conspiracy theories. It’s just a normal activity.”

“Secondly, Ning Lian and Fu Ze are not engaged, so there is no such thing as me being a third party.”

“Thirdly, the Ning family has never fulfilled their duty to raise me. I used thirty million yuan to sever ties with the Ning family. It was my own choice and has nothing to do with today’s marriage.”

“Finally, regarding those deliberate slanders and rumors that can’t be stopped even after today’s clarification, I will take legal measures to protect my personal rights and the Fu family’s interests.”
