She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

The process of obtaining the marriage certificate went smoothly, even simply.

The couple took photos, filled out forms, underwent premarital medical examinations, and recited vows. Two bright red certificates were then handed to them by the staff.

Even after leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, Fang Li still felt like she was in a dream.

She stared blankly at the small notebook in her hand.

Is she married?

She became a married woman just like that?

My head was spinning, and it all felt incredibly unreal.

Fang Li was still stunned when suddenly her marriage certificate was snatched from her hand.

She looked up in surprise and saw Han Xi calmly stuffing both certificates into his pocket.

"To prevent Grandpa from finding out, I'll keep the marriage certificate for now."

She thought about it and realized that what he said made sense.

"Alright, where do we go next?"

Han Xi looked at her and suddenly stuffed something into her palm.

Fang Li was taken aback: "What is this?"

"open to take a look."

She opened it with suspicion, and her eyes were instantly filled with a dazzling light.

Inside the black velvet box lay a perfectly cut heart-shaped diamond ring. She looked up at him, stunned, and asked, "How could you...?"

"Happy marriage, Mrs. Han."

The words "Mrs. Han" as he spoke them sounded like a spell, making her heart tremble.

Han Xi took out the diamond ring and, while she was still stunned, took her left hand and slipped it onto her ring finger.

My fingers felt a heavy, substantial sensation.

Looking at the two hands clasped together, Fang Li suddenly felt a strange sensation.

Han Xi had large hands with long, slender fingers and distinct knuckles. Her hand, placed in his palm, appeared both white and small.

His dry palms were warm and hot, and they felt a little itchy and hot against my skin, making Fang Li want to dodge.

She tried to pull her hand away but couldn't, and panicked slightly: "...I wasn't prepared at all."

He casually stroked her finger, which was adorned with a diamond ring, with his thumb and smiled faintly: "Although it's an arranged marriage, everything that's due must be included. Remember what you owe my Mrs. Han."

He let go, put his hands back in his pockets, and turned to look at her: "Just fix it."

Fang Li gave a stiff smile: ".......Okay."

Huh~!

It’s really killing me!

It's just a business marriage. Who knows when the cooperation will end and this relationship will come to a close? What's this man up to?

They're making it sound so real, like it's actually true.

Fang Li felt extremely embarrassed. Just then, her phone rang in her bag.

She breathed a sigh of relief, answered the phone without even looking back, and walked away as if fleeing.

Before she could even speak, Song Yuchen's furious voice came from the other end of the phone, shattering her current emotions with a bang.

"Fang Li! What are you doing? Two men came today saying they want to help you terminate your contract! Don't you know your contract still has more than two years left? If you terminate it now, you'll have to pay a huge penalty. How are you going to pay that?!"

Two men?

Fang Li was puzzled, then remembered that Xu Fangli had said that she would leave the matter of terminating the contract to him that day.

She said coldly, "So what? It's none of your business."

"Fang Li! Do you have to talk like that? I'm doing this for your own good. I've already promised you the lead role in the new movie. Do you know how strong the production team is for this movie?!"

Fang Li was annoyed by his tone.

She couldn't help but glance back. Han Xi seemed to be busy as well, standing there talking to someone on the phone.

He seems to be a very emotionally stable person; in all the times I've met him, I've never seen him show any major emotional fluctuations.

Fang Li was thinking absentmindedly.

Han Xi felt a gaze directed at him from the side. He turned his head and met a pair of clear, bright eyes.

The person on the phone was saying something, but their voice suddenly seemed to fade into the distance.

He replied casually, "Okay, I'll be back as soon as possible."

He hung up the phone and was about to say something when Fang Li looked away and turned her back.

"Directed by Feng Hui, produced by Wang Weilin, and backed by Wenxi Film and Television, once the movie is released, you'll never have to play a supporting role again. With such a great opportunity right in front of you, are you now saying you want to terminate your contract?"

Fang Li: "Song Yuchen, whether or not I terminate my contract is my business, and I don't need you lecturing me. Besides, what you think is a good opportunity means nothing to me!"

"Have you forgotten what we said in college? This is our shared dream, and now that we finally have a chance to realize it, you're going to give it up?!"

That's your dream, not mine.

Song Yuchen on the other end of the phone finally fell silent.

Fang Li's tone was icy: "I used to dream of you, but now I don't want anything to do with you anymore. Don't call me again; your voice disgusts me."

Hanging up the phone, adding the number to the blacklist, and stuffing the phone into the bag—the whole sequence of actions was done in one smooth motion.

Fang Li finally let out a sigh of relief after buttoning up her bag.

I've been so preoccupied with the Xu family's affairs these past few days since I got back that I forgot to ask Xu Fangye about terminating the contract.

However, judging from Song Yuchen's tone, her brother's people probably haven't successfully helped her terminate the contract yet.

Song Yuchen is currently being heavily promoted by Yaoxing Entertainment. If he continues to suppress the company's requests to terminate his contract, who knows how long this entanglement will last.

Fang Li sighed; it seemed she would have to go there herself to discuss terminating the contract.

"Why sigh?"

"Huh?" Fang Li looked up and saw that Han Xi had already stood behind her at some point.

Han Xi lowered his gaze and stared intently: "Regret it?"

Fang Li: "...How could that be!"

Seeing the man's obvious suspicion, she thought for a moment and then truthfully explained the movie and the contract.

Han Xi's expression softened, but his brows furrowed slightly: "It's my fault."

Fang Li was puzzled.

"Mr. Xu asked me for help before, and I sent the legal department of the subsidiary to resolve it. Now it seems that their ability to handle things is only fit to remain in the subsidiary."

He said, "Don't worry, I will send the group's legal department over when I get back to Beijing, and this matter will be resolved soon."

Send the legal counsel from Han's headquarters to help her with a brokerage contract?

Suddenly, an image popped into Fang Li's mind of a burly man carrying a large knife and chopping up chicks.

"There's no need to go to such lengths."

She smiled sheepishly: "To the people at Yaoxing, I'm just an ordinary little star. If you suddenly send people from the Han family to interfere, who knows how many more rumors will spread."

"You don't believe in the Han family's capabilities?"

"No," she said earnestly, "I just don't want to cause you any trouble."

Han Xi: "......."

Seeing his silence, Fang Li quickly changed the subject: "By the way, you just mentioned going back to the capital. When do you plan to go back?"

Seeing her deliberately avoiding him, Han Xi sighed inwardly, "I'll leave later."

Fang Li: "So urgent? It can't be...."

"The cooperation with the Xu family is already being handled by specialists, so don't worry, it's not about that." Han Xi looked at her, hesitating to speak, "It's a family matter."

Fang Li was sensible and didn't ask any more questions: "Okay, then you go ahead, I'll take a taxi back myself later."

Han Xi: "...There's no rush. I'll take you home first."

Fang Li: "Oh."
