Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob
Chapter 284: A mortal woman who seeks wealth and glory instead of true love vs. a god who has experi
Shu Qiu thought this way: if she agreed to the marriage, her status would change from "partner" to wife, and after Zhu Qi passed away, it would be more natural for her to inherit the property left behind.
Now, she is no longer the girl who used to worry about not being able to protect an embroidery that could be sold for dozens of taels of silver.
In the past few years, Zhu Qi is not the only one who has become different from before. Shu Qiu also has his own shop business and has a lot of things in his hands.
Now, she has the ability to protect herself and doesn't have to worry about others coveting what she has.
Wealth, glory and indulgence, isn't this the life you have been looking forward to for a long time?
The sadness and sorrow that had arisen from the thought that Zhu Qi would die of illness in a few years was extinguished, and happiness and joy flowed out like a spring.
'It seems that after a few years, I should go to the Buddha again to fulfill my vow.'
After Shu Qiu came to his senses, he looked at Zhu Qi. His eyes were too focused, full of eagerness and anxiety.
She thought of the nine years they had spent together, and finally softened her heart for a moment, and said:
"Qi, I must be honest with you. We have gotten along very well over the past nine years without any conflicts, but I really haven't developed any other feelings for you."
"I can wait until you fall in love with me. Life is long, I believe that day will come." Zhu Qi was very determined.
Shu Qiu sighed and asked thoughtfully:
"I can agree to marry you, but I can't fall in love with you in a short time. If you have very little time left to live, would you like a marriage that is not consensual?"
"Why?" Zhu Qi didn't understand why he would agree to marry her if he didn't like her.
As for the following words, he just thought they were just random time settings added when asking questions.
"You just need to answer whether I am willing or not." Shu Qiu did not answer.
Zhu Qi thought about what she said and confirmed: "I do."
More than being willing, if Shu Qiu was telling the truth, he couldn't wait to get married now, immediately, and right away.
It's not easy for two people to fall in love with each other in this world.
For him, the one who secures the status first will have the best chance of gaining love.
Even if she doesn't love him now, as long as she has a legitimate status, she has a legitimate reason to stop Shu Qiu from loving other people.
Zhu Qi's eyes were frighteningly bright. He walked towards Shu Qiu, bent his legs, lowered himself very low, then raised his head and gently pulled the corner of her clothes.
"If I am about to reach the end of my life, I also hope that I can have your company for the last period of time. As my wife, you can become the closest person to me in the world. For this wish, I don't want anything else."
He spoke very slowly, and each word was clear and powerful. After seeing the hesitation in Shu Qiu's eyes, Zhu Qi leaned forward, tentatively hugged Shu Qiu's legs, and acted in a dependent manner.
Shu Qiu was a little shocked. After a few moments of silence, she asked hesitantly.
"Really? You don't want anything. After all these years and all the suffering you've gone through, you can just give it up so easily?"
Zhu Qi smiled. He had grown into a young man as handsome as the breeze and bright moon, and he was incredibly handsome.
"I suffered in the past because I had nothing and I desperately wanted to have everything. But now that I have you, I feel like I have everything."
"The only person who has been with me throughout my youth is you. In the past, I had you. No matter how many days I have left, I hope to be with you. This way I will be satisfied. As for the rest, it doesn't matter if I lose them."
"Being too greedy will be condemned by God."
After saying this, Shu Qiu finally understood.
Anyway, he was not opposed to changing his identity and getting along with Zhu Qi, and if it was good for both parties... Shu Qiu knew what he should do.
Shu Qiu helped the man up, pursed his lips and revealed a faint smile.
"Then let's give it a try."
"really?"
"really."
Zhu Qi was suddenly overwhelmed by ecstasy, and was as happy as a child. He turned left and right, unable to suppress his gushing joy.
"Ah Qiu, I'm so happy."
He suddenly put his arms around Shu Qiu's waist and started spinning. Shu Qiu hugged his neck uncontrollably, lifted his legs off the ground, and spun several circles.
It was very childish, Shu Qiu admitted, but he couldn't help but laugh happily along with Zhu Qi.

Three months later.
Bright red silk flowers were hung at the door of Shu's house, and red paper-cut wedding characters were pasted on every corner of the house.
The festive sounds of gongs, drums and firecrackers almost never stopped. A sedan chair carried by eight people stopped at the door, and a dignified man in wedding clothes walked out of it.
He has clear features and his handsome appearance looks even more handsome against the backdrop of his red wedding dress, as if he is a god descended to earth.
Many people watching from the outside couldn't help but exclaim:
"Is this the groom? He is so handsome."
Most of the people who admired it were women, and some of them happened to have their husbands nearby and could not help but curl their lips and retort.
"It's not good-looking, it's just a face. What's the point of being good-looking, it looks like you have no strength, no masculinity at all. If a woman wants to get married, she should marry a strong man like us."
"Yes, and he has a cold face. He doesn't know how to love his wife even if he marries her like this."
Zhu Qi hadn't seen Shu Qiu for many days due to custom. He waited until the wedding and wanted to meet her, but was driven away by the specially invited Grandma Quanfu.
Since the man was old and brought good fortune, Zhu Qi didn't dare to talk back and could only wait at the door alone in disappointment.
His face looked darker to outsiders.
Many women saw it and just wanted to take back their praise when they heard the gongs, drums and firecrackers going off next to them.
The bride came out.
Before the people could look, the groom standing at the door had already turned around and walked in impatiently.
When he came out again, there was a graceful figure in front of him.
That was the bride, also in wedding dress, being embraced by the groom.
Her face was covered by a veil, so people couldn't see her features clearly, but they could tell from her figure and the pair of slender, white, and smooth hands that were holding the groom's neck that she must be a beauty.
The bride’s face couldn’t be seen clearly, so everyone took one look and then turned their attention back to the groom.
He walked towards the sedan chair holding the person in his arms with steady and powerful steps, and was definitely not weak as outsiders had guessed.
It turned out that the gloomy face had already dissipated and was filled with bright sunshine since he saw the bride.
The groom's eyes never left the bride in his arms. Even though he couldn't see her face clearly, he knew the person in his arms and he couldn't help but smile.
Without knowing the past of the two, people can judge from just a few short meetings that they must be a loving couple.
"I only envy the mandarin ducks, not the immortals. This is what it means."
Some people couldn't help but sigh.
