Chapter 8: Collecting the Marriage Certificate

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The next day, at nine o’clock in the morning, Song Yunshu got into the car arranged by An Linghe and headed to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

As she sat in the car, Song Yunshu was extremely flustered. She was in a state of anxiety, and the hem of her dress was wrinkled by her movements.

Last night, An Linghe had invited her to stay at his house with rare enthusiasm.

He said it was to avoid the trouble of running back and forth, but in fact, he was afraid that Song Yunshu would run away at the last minute, so he kept her by his side to watch over her.

Last night, An Jiaqing threw a huge tantrum at home and smashed almost everything in the room.

However, no matter how angry she was, she could not destroy the knot that the film had left in the minds of the Huo family.

The Huo family was a prestigious family. They would never accept a daughter-in-law with any blemish.

Besides, Huo Cen had already agreed to the marriage with Song Yunshu, so it was useless for An Jiaqing to cry.

When the car stopped in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the chauffeur personally got out of the car and opened the door for her.

After watching her get out of the car, he didn’t immediately drive away. Instead, he stood at the side, like a bodyguard spying on her.

Song Yunshu felt helpless.

Her uncle was afraid that she would run away halfway. He had really put in a lot of effort.

At around 9:25 pm, a dazzling Maybach appeared in Song Yunshu’s view.

After the car stopped, the rear left door was pushed open, and the man’s tall and straight figure appeared in front of her.

He was wearing a dark suit with a neatly tied tie. Just like him, he gave off a solemn and cold feeling.

Song Yunshu looked calm on the surface, but her hands were already drenched in a cold sweat.

Huo Cen did not wear his glasses today. His sharp eyes fell directly on her.

Today, without the lens to obscure his gaze, it inexplicably made people feel a chill.

He walked towards her step by step in his leather shoes and finally stood in front of her.

“Sorry for keeping you waiting.”

“No. I haven’t been here for long either.”

The man suddenly reached out his hand toward her.

Xiao Yan’s fingers were long and slender, with well-defined knuckles and fair skin.

Song Yunshu looked up at him in confusion, her eyes revealing a hint of doubt.

“Let’s go.”

His hand still lingered in mid-air, showing no sign of retracting.

Song Yunshu gulped nervously.

She rubbed her palm against the back of her other hand before finally hesitantly taking his hand shyly.

Huo Cen’s hand was slightly cold, but it also had a great deal of strength when he held hers.

Song Yunshu was a little muddleheaded the entire morning. She followed Huo Cen mechanically and did whatever he told her to do.

She was as obedient as a marionette, at the mercy of others.

When Song Yunshu came out, the red booklet in her hand still felt surreal.

She was actually married?

And her husband was Huo Cen, who was supposed to be her brother-in-law.

It was really unexpected.

The wedding at night was very grand.

It was said that the Huo family booked the largest hotel in Rong City and invited more than a hundred tables of guests. They even invited a lot of media reporters. It could be said that the wedding was held in infinite glory.

In the bride’s lounge, Song Yunshu stood in the room wearing a wedding dress that didn’t quite fit her. The makeup artist beside her was using a pin to temporarily adjust the wedding dress to its best fitting.

Song Yunshu raised her hands and stared at the wall in front of her.

Her originally plain face was also painted with exquisite bridal makeup.

Her heart was filled with calmness as she waited for this wedding that did not belong to her.

When Cao Qin led An Jiaqing into the room, the makeup artist behind her had just fixed the last pin on her waist.

“Mrs. Huo, this will do, but you have to be careful in your movements. Don’t let the thing that holds the needle fall out and pierce your skin.”

“Alright, thank you.”

When An Jiaqing heard how the makeup artist addressed Song Yunshu, her calm expression suddenly changed.

Mrs. Huo, that title should have belonged to her.

After a night of mental turmoil, Cao Qin had completely accepted this fact.

Her own daughter didn’t have this blessing, but if Song Yunshu married into the Huo Family, it would be beneficial to An Linghe and the company, so she wouldn’t be so unacceptable.

“Yunshu, I brought Qingqing here to congratulate you. I didn’t expect you to get married earlier than her.”

“Indeed, after all, no one expected this to happen.”

Song Yunshu had a gentle smile on her face, but it seemed piercing to An Jiaqing’s eyes.

As if multiple little knives were stabbing into her heart heavily.

However, she still had to act gentle and magnanimous.

Yesterday’s video made her completely lose face in the Huo family. Once those videos were leaked, she would never want to live anymore.

“Congratulations, Yunshu sister.”
