My crying scared Zhou Minghe. He looked down at me helplessly, his eyes full of surprise.

I don’t know why I wanted to cry, I just felt that there were so many people who wanted me to be happy. The feeling of being fulfilled and blessed by others was more heartbreaking than sadness.

Zhou Minghe looked at me crying for a long time. My snot was all over his shirt. He finally tore off a few tissues and handed them to me: "Okay, don't cry. I know it's not easy for you. I promise you, isn't that enough?"

I was crying so hard that I was out of breath, but because of his words, I looked at him with bright eyes.

Zhou Minghe had a helpless expression: "Let's make a deal in advance. Tonight, I'll sleep over there. That's all I ask."

I nodded. "Okay."

I stood up from his arms, feeling inexplicably embarrassed.

I clearly said that I would shed blood but not tears, and that I would be an independent, strong and brave woman of the new generation. Why did I cry uncontrollably in front of Zhou Minghe?

Zhou Minghe looked at my back and asked, "Where are you going now?"

"Taking a shower." I replied.

Zhou Minghe didn't stop me anymore. I rushed back to my bedroom, took a shower, washed my face, and changed into a new set of clothes. My eyes were still swollen.

I quietly gathered the necessities for me and the kids, packing and organizing several bags.

Zhou Minghe suddenly appeared at the door and leaned against it, looking at me. "You're so quick! You've finished cleaning up so quickly?"

I looked up at him, feeling unsure: "The children are still over there. I'm afraid they're hungry and need to be fed. I need to go over there early."

Zhou Minghe suddenly raised a piece of printed paper in his hand and said, "Would you like to take a look at the prenuptial agreement I drafted?"

"Yes." I immediately put down what I was doing and walked over.

Zhou Minghe did not give it to me immediately. When I reached out to take it, he deliberately raised it high to prevent me from seeing it.

I couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing that I didn't jump up to grab it, Zhou Minghe felt bored and had to put the paper in front of me: "I only made five requests, it shouldn't be too much."

I took it and took a look. The requirements written by Zhou Minghe were quite comprehensive. They included that the distribution of property and interests of both parties would not be involved, and that a fake marriage did not require the fulfillment of the obligations of a real couple. It also clearly stated that he was my nominal boyfriend, and Ji Mu could not overstep the boundaries in exercising the rights of the couple. Finally, he wrote a deadline of three years before considering renewal.

After reading it, I feel that what Zhou Minghe wrote is exactly what I want to write. However, I must add a few conditions.

"It's not enough. These are only beneficial to me. From Dr. Ji's point of view, I have taken enough advantage." I said softly.

Zhou Minghe was stunned: "Then what else do you have to add?"

I turned and walked into his study, sat in his seat, and modified the contents of the agreement.

Zhou Minghe narrowed his eyes. "Besides being husband and wife, you also want to do housework for him for free? And accompany him to attend certain events when he needs you?"

I nodded at him and said, "Yes, Dr. Ji and I don't have sex, but I will try my best to help him with other things."

"What if... he makes unreasonable demands?" Zhou Minghe snorted.

"He won't." I have some understanding of Ji Mu. He is a gentleman, and he is not someone who takes advantage of others.

"Do you trust him so much?" Zhou Minghe said sourly.

I smiled and said, "If I didn't trust him, how could I dare to have a fake marriage with him?"

"If you really get married, do you think his nephew who has a crush on you will be so angry that he will bang his head against the wall?" Zhou Minghe reminded me interestingly.

Thinking of Chu Rui, my heart skipped a beat. Yes, I almost forgot about him.

"I will explain to Chu Rui... I can't explain anything. It seems that I can only discuss this matter with Dr. Ji." I lowered my head, full of worry.

Zhou Minghe said with an unhappy look on his face: "Anyway, I can be sure that Ji Mu has bad intentions towards you. He must like you."

When I heard Zhou Minghe say this, I didn't refute him. There is no pure friendship between adults, only lip friendship.

Ji Mu never publicly confessed his feelings to me, so I just pretended that it never happened. Besides, there are many kinds of feelings, some of which... really come from the heart and should be limited by etiquette.

Of course, if neither Zhou Minghe nor Su Beicheng is my destination in the future, I will definitely consider it if Ji Mu is willing to pursue me.

"Okay, I'll go over there first. Are you going to the company in the afternoon?" I asked Zhou Minghe.

"Let me take you there." Zhou Minghe thought for a moment, then helped me carry the things downstairs.

When we arrived at Ji Mu's residential complex, Ji Mu came over with an anxious look on his face. "Mayor Su just called and asked if Jingjing and I could get a marriage certificate."

"It seems that Su's mother is suspicious?" My heart started pounding.

Zhou Minghe snorted lightly: "Go ahead and claim it if you want. You don't have to worry about my life or death anyway."

"Mr. Zhou, we all hope Jingjing can protect her child. She gave birth to this child with great difficulty. If Su's mother knew the truth, the child might not be able to be kept. You should know that it is not wise to compete with the family power behind Mayor Su." Ji Mu said seriously.

My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn't help but look at Ji Mu: "Do you know Su Beicheng's family well?"

Ji Mu smiled and said, "Does it count if my ancestors carried guns?"

I was not quite clear about the weight of these words, and looked at Zhou Minghe. Zhou Minghe's handsome face froze and he had to purse his thin lips.

Ji Mu whispered to me, "Okay, Jingjing, this matter needs urgent action. Do you have your ID with you?"

I felt inexplicably panicked. Ji Mu was always calm, but he was also anxious at this moment.

"I brought it." In order to better develop my career and buy a property, I asked my parents to make a household registration booklet for me at home and send it to me.

I still remember that my parents were reluctant at the time, but I told them that I was afraid I would get into trouble here and asked them to find a way to help me.

Unexpectedly, my parents got it done in about a week.

Ji Mu and I drove directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau. There weren't many people applying for marriage certificates, so we lined up and sat in the lobby waiting.

Ji Mu was wearing a dark blue suit and a white shirt, looking elegant and handsome, and I also wore a slightly formal dress because today was my baby's full moon banquet.

"Jingjing, have you really thought it through?" Ji Mu turned his head and looked at me with a gloomy look: "Are you really willing to get the marriage certificate?"

I chuckled and asked him, "I don't need to think about anything, but Dr. Ji... are you really willing?"

Ji Mu lowered his head, his voice firmer: "Yes, I do."

I pursed my lips and smiled softly. For some reason, it felt like we were really exchanging vows.

"I'm willing to do that too." I smiled at him gently.
