County town, heavy rain.

Shi Xiaoyu walked into the Civil Affairs Bureau with her bag in her arms.

She glanced towards the window of the marriage registry. Even on a rainy day like this, there were still many people who wanted to step into the marriage grave.

To be honest, Shi Xiaoyu had never thought about getting married. Ever since her parents divorced when she was three years old and left her, crying heartbrokenly, to her elderly and disabled grandmother, she had developed a fear of marriage.

Having worked in the public relations industry for many years and seen too many couples being hypocritical, she is even more determined to remain single.

But a month ago, my grandmother suddenly fell ill with advanced stomach cancer.

She sat on the floor of the emergency room and thought all night and decided to get married.

Her grandmother's only wish was for her to get married, so she could make her grandmother feel at ease.

After many twists and turns, my grandmother's best friend, Grandma Wu, pushed her eldest grandson, who also refused to get married, out for a blind date with her.

Although it was called a blind date, the two of them had only added each other on WeChat and had never met each other. However, they shared the same views on marriage and both wanted to be firm non-marriage advocates.

So, in order to avoid being forced into marriage and to fulfill the wishes of their elders, the two hit it off and decided to get a fake marriage, get a marriage certificate to show to the elderly in their family, and then wait until the time is right to quietly go through the divorce procedures.

If it weren't for her grandmother, Shi Xiaoyu would never have set foot in this place that left her with psychological trauma. She was afraid that after getting married, she would have endless quarrels like her parents, and she was even more afraid that after having a child, she would have to raise the child like a widow. Eventually, the couple would go their separate ways, and the only one left behind would suffer.

Just as she was distracted, an ordinary black car stopped at the door.

A handsome man in a black suit got out of the car and walked straight towards her.

The man was about 1.80 meters tall and had a pale face, but his facial features were surprisingly good-looking, especially his pair of peach blossom eyes, which made his cold temperament even more radiant.

With this kind of looks, he would definitely be very popular in the marriage market. Unfortunately, he doesn't want to enter the marriage market.

The man pushed the door open and saw Shi Xiaoyu standing beside him.

Shi Xiaoyu is very beautiful. Her mother used to be a third-rate model with a good image and temperament. Her beauty was also inherited to her. She even performed beyond her expectations and looks better than her mother.

From childhood to adulthood, her looks attracted a lot of suitors, but those men who were attracted by her appearance were not in her eyes, so she had never been in love.

I did have a crush on a man before, but it was a crush in which I only knew his name and never got close to him.

"Shi Xiaoyu?" The man frowned slightly.

Shi Xiaoyu nodded, "You are... Luo Yichen?"

The man's name is Luo Yichen, he is 28 years old, a Scorpio, and it is said that he runs a company and has a house and a car. This is the only information Shi Xiaoyu knows about him.

Luo Yichen nodded slightly, and took out a household registration booklet from his arms, "Have you brought your things?"

Shi Xiaoyu also took out her household registration booklet from her bag and nodded obediently, "I've got it."

Luo Yichen didn't say anything, he just walked over and picked up the number from the call machine.

Twenty minutes later, two people walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

The rain has stopped.

Shi Xiaoyu looked down at the extra red book in her hand. She was still half asleep and half awake, and just like that, she had become a married woman.

Luo Yichen's mellow voice was in my ears. "I have a house in Beicheng Community, Unit 603, Building , Room , with three bedrooms and two living rooms. I heard from grandma that your grandma is sick. This house happens to be very close to the First Hospital. You can bring your grandma to live there. It will be convenient for you to go back and forth for treatment. In addition, I have a good relationship with Director Zhang of the First Hospital. I will say hello to him and arrange the best doctor to perform surgery for your grandma."

He handed a bunch of keys to Shi Xiaoyu.

Before Shi Xiaoyu could react or even say thank you, he had already opened the car door and half sat in. "If you have anything, please contact me on WeChat. I'm very busy lately, so I can't accompany you."

After saying that, he started the car and disappeared in front of Shi Xiaoyu.

Shi Xiaoyu stared at the extra bunch of keys in her hand. It seemed that everything had changed, yet nothing had changed. However, all this was in line with her own expectations. At least she didn't have to get caught up in the complicated interpersonal relationships of marriage.

She was satisfied.

…………

Three days later, Shi Xiaoyu and her grandmother moved into Luo Yichen's house in the North City Community.

There are three bedrooms and two living rooms, and they are very clean.

Grandma was also very satisfied with her marriage. She sat on the sofa, her eyes red as she held her hand and said, "Xiaoyu, my dear girl, you will be an adult after you get married. Even if grandma dies, she will protect you..."

Shi Xiaoyu didn't want to hear such words, so she lowered her head and told her grandmother, "You won't die, don't worry!"

However, even though Shi Xiaoyu tried very hard to take care of her grandmother, she still died half a year later.

When he died, he held her hand and repeatedly told her, "Good girl, give birth to a baby soon. Only when a woman has a child can she have someone to rely on."

At her grandmother's funeral, Shi Xiaoyu received a large sum of money transfer from Luo Yichen.

"I'm sorry, I'm on a business trip overseas. One hundred thousand dollars should be enough to hold a good funeral for grandma. Please burn some incense for me."

This is the extent of their interaction.

More than half a year passed before Shi Xiaoyu finally got over the pain of losing her grandmother.

Now that she was no longer tied down by her grandmother, she thought she could get a divorce.

Shi Xiaoyu sent a message to Luo Yichen, whom she hadn't contacted for half a year, "Are you free this weekend? If you are, let's go through the divorce procedures."

Soon, she received a reply from Luo Yichen, "Sorry, I'm very busy recently. I'll contact you later."

When she sent another message asking when he would be free, Luo Yichen refused to reply.

In the blink of an eye, in autumn, the company suddenly received a particularly large order. It was a project about the Si family, the richest family in the county. It was said that it was because the eldest son of the Si family got into trouble outside and made a not-so-famous female star pregnant. Now the Internet is flooded with news about this eldest son, causing the Si family's stock price to fall by several points.

The Si family needs an urgent public relations.

Shi Xiaoyu was naturally selected to participate in this project because of his outstanding ability to do things.

The Si family held a cocktail party that evening, and Shi Xiaoyu's public relations company was also on the list of invited guests.

Shi Xiaoyu and another female colleague, Liu Wanwan, were sent by the company's boss to meet with the rumored cold and arrogant eldest son of the Si family to discuss public relations matters.

Eight o'clock at night.

Shi Xiaoyu, wearing a black dress, was taken to the backstage of the Si family cocktail party.

The person who received her was Zhu Yaya, the female secretary of Young Master Si Yeyun.

Secretary Zhu took Shi Xiaoyu and Liu Wanwan to the door of the hotel's most luxurious presidential suite. While knocking on the door, he raised his chin and reminded Shi Xiaoyu, "Our CEO doesn't like people who talk too much. His time is very precious..."

The implication is that they should only talk about business and not any other nonsense.

Liu Wanwan quickly nodded and thanked Secretary Zhu, "Thank you for your reminder. We will come out as soon as we finish our business."

This was a big deal, and the Si family paid five million for public relations.

As a public relations person, who wouldn’t be tempted?

Half a minute later, a man's low, mellow and arrogant voice came from the room, "Come in."

Hearing this voice, Shi Xiaoyu stood at the door and was stunned for a moment...

Why do I seem to have heard this sound somewhere before?

Strange yet familiar...
