West coast

Tomorrow is the sixth, the date of the wedding.

Lin Nan had just finished a remote video interview in the morning when he received a call from Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan: "Nan, I have an appointment with a lawyer today. If you are free at three o'clock in the afternoon, come to my house."

Lin Nan: "Oh, ok. Then remember to send me the address."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan thought: "It should be to sign a prenuptial agreement or something. But it's normal. From Qin Chuan's point of view, it's just a fake marriage to me after all. Just sign it, I just need a legal It’s just working here as an identity, and I have never coveted his property.”

In the afternoon, Lin Nan arrived at Qin Chuan's house 10 minutes earlier.

This is an independent villa located near Stanford University in a prime location, surrounded by lush greenery, it is a quiet place in the midst of the bustle.The villa has three floors, five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, its own swimming pool, wine cellar and an independent cinema.The decoration is very novel and unique, it should be from the hands of well-known designers.Lin Nan was curious, so he casually checked the price of the real estate transaction on redfin, but was taken aback by the number. He counted several times to see how many zeros followed.Although Qin Chuan's annual salary plus stock is close to one million dollars, but Qin Chuan's father's support must be indispensable to buy such a luxury house in the prime location known as the center of the universe.

The lawyer has arrived. He looks about 40 years old, without the beer belly of his peers, wearing a well-fitting suit, with a shrewd face, gold-rimmed glasses, and a serious smile.

Lawyer: "Today, I was entrusted by Mr. Qin Chuan to give you a brief introduction to the precautions for dealing with the immigration bureau after marriage. Here are two documents, one for each of you. Before receiving the notice of the immigration bureau interview, Be sure to memorize it. If everything goes well, Mr. Lin Nan can apply for divorce two years after he gets his green card."

He turned to Lin Nan again, and said, "With all due respect, Mr. Lin, as far as I know, you chose to get married immediately after being laid off by the company. The immigration officer will definitely doubt your motives for getting married. So you must not show it during the interview." A little flaw, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted."

Then, he opened his notebook and began to exhort: "The following are some things that you should do as soon as possible. They are written in the materials I gave you, but these points are very important. I hope you can pay attention to them: first , immediately go to open a joint bank account, and the salary must be entered. Be careful not to have large transactions recently to prevent being suspected of being a deposit for a fake marriage. Second, your driver’s license must have the same address, please go to the vehicle as soon as possible The administration updates the address on the current driver’s license. The sooner the better. Third, the Immigration Bureau will investigate the phone records as usual. From now on, the two of you must make sure to make at least one mobile phone call every day. In addition, prepare for a group photo. The wedding tomorrow Remember to take more photos, preferably with friends on camera. If you have any correspondence, plane tickets, or train tickets in the past, dig them out and save them immediately. Fourth, visit neighbors more often until they recognize Lin Nan’s appearance. So far. The last and most important point, on the day of the interview, remember to wear the ring, and go in the same car, and you cannot drive separately. Okay, do you have any questions about what I said?"

The two shook their heads in unison.

Lawyer: "Well, Mr. Qin Chuan, I still have a few words to say to you alone, please come out with me."

When the two came to the pool, the lawyer looked around and spoke only after making sure that the conversation between the two parties would not be overheard by anyone.

Lawyer: "Accordingly, our business takes people's money and eliminates disasters for people. We shouldn't talk too much. But you are my regular customer, and I still want to remind you of two things."

Qin Chuan: "Please tell me."

Lawyer: "I hope you understand the risks of this fake marriage. Although we have made sufficient preparations, once you are found out by the immigration bureau or reported by anyone, you may face up to 5 years in prison. Moreover, if you really start your own family in the future and need to apply for the identity of the other party, as long as you have a fake marriage record, the application for the identity of the marriage partner will be rejected immediately without any suspense. And there is..."

The lawyer cleared his throat, and then continued: "Even if the Immigration Bureau did not find out, this time it was successfully bluffed. But because the object of your fake marriage this time is a man, if you marry a wife in the future, the gender of the marriage partner will change It will arouse strong suspicion. Of course, this is your personal matter. As a lawyer, I should not inquire about it, but your father is kind to me, and I also watched you grow up. What I said today is purely based on The position of an old friend, I hope you can consider it carefully!"

Qin Chuan listened and smiled slightly: "Thank you for thinking about me. I know that what you said is for my own good. However, I know very well what I am doing. Marrying Lin Nan is completely voluntary."

Lawyer: "In that case, I won't say anything more. I will do my best to handle this matter for you. If there is any emergency in the future, please notify me as soon as possible."

Qin Chuan: "Okay, no problem. Thank you."

After the lawyer left, Lin Nan and Qin Chuan began to read the information left by the lawyer.

The first page contains the identity information of the two people, starting with their name, date of birth, and passport number, down to which hospital they were born in, which clubs they joined in college, whether they have a criminal record, and all their addresses after coming to the United States, etc.Lin Nan was surprised how the lawyer knew such details.

The second page is some notes for the interview.

The third page is some general questions that need to be prepared in advance:

1. How did the two meet?

2. Who took the initiative?For example, ask for contact information.

3. Where do you register your marriage?Who is going?

4. When was the first intimate contact and who took the initiative?

5. Who sleeps on the left and who sleeps on the right?

6. When was the last time and are there any safety measures in place?

7. Are you planning to have a child?How many?

……

Lin Nan saw that the more questions he asked, the more he asked them more carefully, and the more he asked, the more private he became, and his scalp began to tingle.

Qin Chuan was also looking at these questions with relish, and laughed out loud from time to time.

Lin Nan: "Are these questions so funny?"

Qin Chuan: "Yes! So, Lin Nan, do you sleep on the left or the right?"

Lin Nan: "..."

Qin Chuan: "Oh, I'm serious! You have to memorize all this. If you are found out, not only will you not be able to get a green card, but I will also be unlucky. Wouldn't it be better for me to choose for you first? Ask again, do you sleep on the left side or the right side?"

Lin Nan: "Then... the left side is fine."

Qin Chuan: "That's right. Next question, are you above or below?"

Lin Nan opened his eyes angrily: "There is no such question on the information!"

Qin Chuan: "Don't be embarrassed. Haha, but it's obvious from our physique. The immigration officer is not blind." After speaking, he wrote next to Lin Nan's name on the paper: below.

After writing, I started laughing wildly.

Lin Nan was so angry with him that he couldn't attack, and his face turned red.

Qin Chuan didn't care about Lin Nan's current expression, and continued to tease him: "Wow, this question, this question, who asked for the phone number first? Well... I think it was you, because you came to peek at my linkedin first hahaha Ha ha."

Although what he said is correct, is this considered pursuit? !Lin Nan rolled his eyes, rolled the materials in his hand into a paper tube and wanted to hit him.Get out of the way by Qin Chuan.

Lin Nan ran after Qin Chuan, and Qin Chuan hahaha all the way.

Qin Chuan was circling around in the living room, wearing slippers and not paying attention to his feet, slipped and fell on the sofa. Lin Nan seized the opportunity and sat on him, pretending to strangle him.

Qin Chuan: "Yo? What are you doing? What kind of play is this? Turned serfs are singing?"

As he turned around, he pressed Lin Nan under his body, and held Lin Nan's wrist with one hand: "What's the matter? Do you really want to have an experience? It's okay, I have no objection." After finishing speaking, he put his face on the ground closer.

Lin Nan's face turned red from his neck to his cheeks, even his ears.

Lin Nan: "Let go of me, I'm really going to be angry!"

Qin Chuan: "If you don't let it go, I won't let it go!"

Lin Nan's hands were controlled, his body could not move, and he was out of breath.Suddenly he had a quick wit, opened his mouth and bit Qin Chuan's ear.

Qin Chuan's face suddenly changed, and he let go of Lin Nan's hand with a swipe of the ground, and froze in place.

Lin Nan: "Hmph, let you bully me!"

Qin Chuan looked at him from the side, without saying a word, he gritted his teeth secretly, tensed his whole body, and endured silently.

Lin Nan: "Scared!"

He sat up, straightened his clothes, and continued, "But, I thought I was here to sign some prenuptial agreement today."

Qin Chuan tried very hard to calm himself down, and asked, "What prenuptial agreement?"

Lin Nan: "It's the kind of agreement that stipulates who owns the property before marriage?"

Qin Chuan shook his head helplessly: "Oh, what you said is really unnecessary."

After the two had dinner at night, Qin Chuan asked Lin Nan to go out for a walk together, so that the neighbors around could see them walking together.

The two of them walked and chatted.

Lin Nan: "I'm so full. I didn't realize that you are so good at cooking."

Qin Chuan: "You, there are so many things that you didn't see."

Lin Nan ignored him and changed the subject: "Let's go over what else we need to prepare."

Qin Chuan: "I'll get the bank account driver's license and so on. You don't have to worry about it. Well... what you need most now are love letters, call records and group photos."

Lin Nan: "Where is the love letter from?"

Qin Chuan: "You write now, just write how much you admire me and how much you have a crush on me. Praise me for being handsome and able to cook."

Lin Nan: "..."

Qin Chuan continued: "For group photos, we probably had a lot of them in high school. I kept them all and just dug them out. I'll find a photographer to take pictures for us when we get married tomorrow, but we don't have any daily group photos at this stage. Who should we find?" How about taking a picture with us?"

Lin Nan: "Wang Yiding."

Qin Chuan pursed his lips, and said a little unhappy: "Why him?! When did you know him so well?"

Lin Nan: "Eh... I mentioned to him before that we two got married in a fake way."

Qin Chuan: "What?! You tell him about this too? Oh, okay, it seems that I have to spend my time trying to win over my subordinate. It's really a headache..."

Lin Nan: "What else is there...the information asks if we two have children?" The more he asked, the more guilty he became, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Qin Chuan: "Yes! Of course. One girl and one boy. The names are Qin Xiaomei and Qin Dashuai. After all, his looks are as good as his father's." He paused, pointed to himself, and added: "My dad! "

Lin Nan found that Qin Chuan seemed to be very happy today, and he talked more than usual. No matter how he looked, he looked a bit like the Qin Chuan he knew in high school, not the current Director Qin who only said innocuous official words during meetings .
