Chapter 5: Registered the Marriage

Gu Xiang frowned but was not anxious to reject. The three years deadline tempted her.

She reflected back on how nicely Uncle Meng treated her in the past. It was her tenth year in the Meng family. Using three years in exchange for the love and care that she received from Uncle Meng… That should be enough?

Old Du knew that she had been persuaded by him after seeing her keep silent.

Heaving a sigh of relief, he said, “If you have no objections, I’ll get someone to fetch you from the Meng residence tomorrow morning. It’s just registration of the marriage and shouldn’t take too much time.”

Seeing how anxious he was, Gu Xiang finally nodded in agreement.

…

The next day Old Du came to register the marriage. Her supposed husband did not appear at all.

Gu Xiang finally accepted the deal after this. It turned out that not only would the assistants of the wealthy help them in matchmaking, they could even substitute them when registering for marriage. However, they did not take a photo and so had to come back again to take it.

Leaving the Bureau of Civil Administration, Old Du looked at her and said, “Something cropped up in the hospital so Mr. Jiang could not leave. Please don’t mind it, Madam.”

He changed the way of addressing her very quickly. He felt apologetic to Gu Xiang because Mr. Jiang was not here.

Gu Xiang replied, “Never mind.”

Even if he never appeared there was no loss to Gu Xiang.

Old Du smiled and said, “We’ve sent people to resolve the matters on Director Meng’s end. Please don’t worry, you’ll hear the good news soon.”

Gu Xiang still had matters to attend to in the afternoon. “Is there anything else? If not, I’m going back.”

Old Du smiled. “Nothing else. Please feel free to leave. When Mr. Jiang is free we’ll contact you and properly introduce you.”

Gu Xiang replied, “No hurry.”

In fact, she was hoping that he would appear much later. It would be the best if he did not appear for three years.

…

Leaving the Bureau of Civil Administration, she received Bai Wei’s call. “Gu Xiang, are you here?”

“Soon, I just finished with my matters,” Gu Xiang said. “Did anything happen?”

When Bai Wei called her earlier, she had been busy registering her marriage.

Bai Wei said, “That woman is pregnant. She is currently in the hospital… Her family members are here!”

When Gu Xiang heard this, she was left speechless.

‘That woman’ naturally referred to the mistress that Xia Wenxuan found himself recently.

Xia Wenxuan and Bai Wei were playmates in childhood. They had even prepared their matrimonial home and were getting married. However, Xia Wenxuan got a mistress and she was discontented. She would always send messages to Xia Wenxuan in an attempt to protect her territory as she tried to force Bai Wei to back out.

Bai Wei was deeply angered by the matter. Although she wanted to break up with Xia Wenxuan, she did not want the vixen to have it easy so she dug in her heels.

Upon hearing that the vixen was creating a fuss at the hospital, Gu Xiang was infuriated too. “What is she doing? Is she afraid that others don’t know that she is a mistress? She is actually creating trouble at the hospital?”

“That’s right!” Bai Wei said angrily. “Xia Wenxuan’s colleagues just sent me a message. It’s said that the woman is pregnant and her family members are there. They are asking if I know about this! I really admire her. How could someone be so shameless?”

Xia Wenxuan was working in the hospital and since the mistress kicked up a fuss there, his colleagues naturally knew about it. Other mistresses would keep silent if they were one as they were afraid that others would find out! Yet this woman was afraid that others did not know.

Gu Xiang replied, “Don’t worry. I’m coming over shortly!”
