Marriage of convenience blossoms into love; the husband turns out to be a billionaire CEO.

Half an hour later, the two came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, each holding a marriage certificate.

Ye Cheng remained in a daze, her life flourishing.

The hiccups lasted for a full half hour.

Simply can not stop.

Today was originally the day we planned to get our marriage certificate.

It seems to have changed, but it also seems not to have changed.

What hasn't changed is that I eventually got married after going through so many twists and turns; what has changed is that the man I registered my marriage with is someone else.

What a dramatic and hilarious day!

I wonder if anyone else is like her, whose entire process, from blind date to marriage registration, was filled with hiccups.

God really did favor her, giving her a handsome face, but making her lose her own face!

Ji Lingfeng, who was walking ahead, stopped, took out his phone, opened WeChat, and gestured for Ye Cheng to add him as a friend.

"I'll send you the address and the gate password in a bit, then you can move it over yourself."

Ye Cheng intended to say "Oh," but a "burp" sound perfectly replaced it.

They took out their phones and added each other as friends, adding Ji Lingfeng's name as a contact name.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Ji Lingfeng left those words without waiting for her reply, put his hands in his pockets, and strode away with his long legs.

A secretary in a blue suit and two bodyguards in black followed them from a distance.

A woman was left alone, hiccuping in the wind...

……

On a speeding Rolls-Royce.

"My dear grandson, quickly open your marriage certificate and let me see it!" Grandpa Ji called via video.

The old man couldn't wait any longer, and that was the first thing he said.

Ji Lingfeng waved the red marriage certificate in front of the phone camera, which was his way of handing over the task.

"Good, good, good lad, you've finally fulfilled your grandfather's wish!"

Grandpa Ji immediately beamed with joy, then asked, "By the way, where do you plan to arrange for my granddaughter-in-law to stay?"

Ji Lingfeng frowned. The Ji family owned countless properties, mostly villas and mansions. If they wanted to be ordinary people, they had to live in ordinary housing.

He raised an eyebrow and turned to ask his secretary, Kim Dae-woo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "Secretary Kim, where is that apartment the company allocated to you last month? Is anyone living in it yet?"

"Not yet, Mr. Ji. I'm still living with my parents right now."

Upon hearing this, Kim Dae-woo immediately turned his head and answered respectfully.

"That apartment is a fully furnished unit in Jingtai Garden in the East District, unit number 1901 in building 3, 138 square meters, with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms."

Kim Dae-woo gave a detailed report in one breath, only realizing his professional habit had kicked in after he finished speaking.

Jin Dayu has worked diligently with Ji Lingfeng for five years. The company offers him generous benefits, and he was recently rewarded with an apartment, which he plans to use as his future marital home. However, he is currently lacking a girlfriend.

Ji Lingfeng turned to Grandpa Qi and said, "Grandpa, we'll stay at Jingtai Garden for the time being."

Kim Dae-woo's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

What?! President Ji is going to move into his new house with his new wife?!

Kim Dae-woo suspects there's something wrong with his ears.

"Alright, alright, I'll go back to the countryside first, and I'll come see you in a couple of days. You rascal, you'd better treat my granddaughter-in-law well!"

Grandpa Ji said happily on the phone, and then hung up the phone with satisfaction.

The old man now enjoys his retirement life in the countryside, farming and raising chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep in his spare time, living a very comfortable life.

"Secretary Kim, how much can you rent your apartment for a month?"

Ji Lingfeng hung up the phone and asked Jin Dayu.

"Based on the current market price, it should be able to rent for 10,000."

Kim Dae-woo answered cautiously.

“Then I’ll pay 50,000 yuan a month, and I can temporarily borrow your house to live in.”

Ji Lingfeng gave the order without room for argument.

There wasn't enough time to buy a house on short notice, so we had to settle for temporarily requisitioning the secretary's house.

Anyway, I'll only stay for six months at most.

Kim Dae-woo still had some objections in his heart. He was serving a top billionaire CEO in Shenzhen. What kind of house didn't he have?

Why should I compete with a wage earner for a house?

But upon hearing that the CEO was offering a high price to recruit him, he was immediately excited and replied, "Yes, Mr. Ji!"

Five, six, thirty, you can easily make 300,000 in half a year. Where else can you find such easy money?

Ji Lingfeng continued to instruct, "This afternoon, go buy me a car, something cheap, around 100,000 yuan will do. Also, buy some ordinary clothes and daily necessities and send them over."

"Roger that!"

Kim Dayu didn't dare to be careless in his words, and then cautiously asked, "President Ji, what kind of clothes are you referring to as 'ordinary clothes'?"

How could he possibly know the price range of ordinary clothes in the eyes of someone with a net worth of hundreds of millions?

Ji Lingfeng was speechless for a moment; this question had stumped him as well.

After a long pause, he said, "You decide, something cheap, like what ordinary working people do."

Kim Dayu responded verbally, but inwardly he was thinking, "What kind of show is the CEO planning to put on, requisitioning the workers' affordable housing and buying them cheap cars and clothes?"

Kim Dae-woo has been with this young, handsome, and wealthy CEO for several years, but he has never even touched a woman's hair, let alone married her.

This time, he was pressured by the old man to get married suddenly. Shouldn't he cherish his wife and treat her like a precious gem?

A huge question mark appeared in my mind, but I didn't dare to say a word.

……

Looking at the red certificate in her hand, Ye Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm almost thirty, and I never imagined that I would get married to a man I've never even met before.

She examined the wedding photo on the certificate again and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "But this cheap husband of mine is really good-looking!"

Then look at herself, with her chubby face and silly expression, she doesn't seem like a good match at all.

Lai Yulan started chanting that deadly mantra early in the morning. She was in a hurry to get away, and since she was getting her marriage certificate with Cheng Yuan, she just ran out like she was going out for a quick meal, with her hair disheveled and unkempt.

If it weren't for the long distance requiring a bicycle ride, she might have worn slippers.

Life is unpredictable. Who would have thought that the person she ended up marrying was such a handsome guy!

I should have dressed up properly before leaving the house today. Even though it's not a real wedding, at least my marriage certificate wouldn't be so much worse than what the handsome guy looks like.

Ye Cheng was filled with regret, and suddenly realized that she had stopped talking nonsense.

That burp was so inconsiderate; it stopped as soon as the handsome guy left.

She opened WeChat and saw over 100 unread messages in the company group.

When I climbed upstairs, I found that my colleagues were all gossiping about how they had been jilted at their engagements.

Ye Cheng scrolled to the top of the unread messages with surprise and clicked on a video.

This startled me so much that my jaw almost dropped to the ground.

The protagonist in the video was actually her, fiercely arguing with Cheng Yuan's mother in a coffee shop.

……

Let's rewind to two hours earlier.

Ye Cheng never dreamed that the moment she stepped out of the coffee shop, the company's group chat would erupt in chaos.

[Did this really just happen? Ye Cheng's fiancé dumped her?]

[It's true! We happened to be in the same coffee shop three minutes ago, @叶橙, come out and verify your identity!]

This is Tian Yawen, Ye Cheng's colleague, an extremely gossipy woman.

I happened to be at this coffee shop today, and it was she who took the video and sent it to the group chat.

[Haha, family, forgive me for laughing so hard, but this scene looks so familiar. Did Ye Cheng learn it from a TV drama?]

That coffee was spilled beautifully! That jerk is despicable! I should have slapped him twice more!

Help! I found out I was just a backup option on the day we got our marriage certificate, and then the engagement was called off! How embarrassing!

[Oh my god, this is a total social disaster! If it were me, I'd just disappear on the spot!]

[I think Ye Cheng should have her fortune told. She's a cheater, a mama's boy, a con artist—she's got all sorts of scumbag boyfriends in her life! It's too weird!]

[On this point...excuse my bluntness, but when looking for a boyfriend, don't be too picky; compatibility is the most important thing.]

[Why isn't Ye Cheng, that foodie, online? Maybe she's either eating or on her way to eat, haha!]

Ye Cheng had set the WeChat group to Do Not Disturb mode, but she was completely unaware that the group was unusually active today because of the video.

It's Tian Yawen again, that woman who loves to stir up trouble!

Ye Cheng bit her back teeth.

At that moment, I received a message from Ji Lingfeng on my phone.

It's his home address and the front door password.

Room 1901, Building 3, Jingtai Garden.

She searched online and found that Jingtai Garden is located in the eastern part of the city and is considered a mid-range residential community.

Being able to buy such a nice house in Shenzhen at least proves that this cheap husband she picked up is quite capable.

Looks like I'm in luck this time.

I lost a 168, but found a 188.
