before the tombstone, and remained silent for a long time. After all his emotions had settled, he spoke: "Mom, I'm sorry, I'm late." 。Many things just missed out by chance, and no amount of remorse ca...It was precisely because he was so strong that after his father's incident, he couldn't accept it and completely broke down, becoming listless.

But deep down, things won't change. After she recovers, she'll still be strong-willed. In the past, Shu Tinglan would have strongly opposed and resisted this, but now that her mother is slowly recovering and showing her strong side, she feels happy about it instead.

On the way to send Mom back to the hospital in the evening, Shu Ma suddenly spoke.

"Actually, Mom doesn't want to pressure you either. Your life ultimately belongs to you. That's right, Mom doesn't even know how long she can live, or when she might suddenly get sick and you wouldn't even recognize her. She doesn't even know if, in this lifetime, she'll be able to see you find a good home."

Shu Ma's tone was always slow and deliberate, but it felt like she was scraping at Shu Tinglan's raw nerves. Shu Tinglan suddenly remembered what Lin Zhixiao had said before, about her parents pressuring her into marriage. She thought she would never have to face this issue in her life. Not to mention her mother's illness, even her mother was incredibly disappointed with marriage.

I never expected that after waking up, the first thing Mom would worry about would be her marriage.

Shu Ma got out of the car and went to the hospital. She kept turning her head back three times every step, looking at Shu Tinglan with eyes full of reluctance and worry. Shu Tinglan saw her thin body walking slowly, and his nose ached.

A ridiculous idea flashed through her mind, couldn't she just get married to make her mother happy She turned to glance at the man behind her and immediately dismissed the absurd thought.

But Zhuo Yu'an seemed to have caught her fleeting and erratic emotions, he said:

“Tinglan, think about it carefully. If we get married, there's no harm to you. You don't have anyone you like anyway, and you don't want to get married in the future. If it's just to get a marriage certificate to reassure your mother, why not find me instead of a stranger I'm a decent person.”

Shutinglan's thoughts were led astray by him, forgetting that she had never even considered getting a marriage certificate to reassure her mother. At this moment, she actually felt what he said was quite reasonable and seriously considered the possibility.

Zuo Yu'an continued.

"Think about it, if we get married, who would be at a disadvantage If we ever split up, you could get half my property. To be honest, I'm pretty wealthy."

"Who wants your property Besides, premarital assets have nothing to do with your other half now." Shu Tinglan retorted.

"Well, I know you're not after my fortune, but I can legally divide my premarital assets and give you half. As for what we acquire during our marriage, you can have it all. After all, you'll be in charge of the family finances anyway."

Shu Tinglan only realized afterwards that she had been taken advantage of. She couldn't help but be moved, as he said, his wealth was considerable, and she was just an ordinary person, unable to resist worldly temptations.

"Actually, getting the marriage certificate is just to reassure your mother. Our lives won't be affected in any way. You don't have to live together if you don't want to, and you don't have to make it public either. If you ever want a divorce someday, that's fine too, but it's best not to get divorced. Since I married you, I haven't thought about divorcing for a day in my life."

"Think about it carefully, there's no harm in it for you. In terms of your career, I can help you, of course, limited to introducing clients to you. As for whether you can actually secure them, that depends on your own abilities."

Shu Tinglan wanted to curse after hearing this, because the temptation was too great. As long as she got the marriage certificate, her life would be completely changed, reaching the peak of success. Aside from the incident with Wen Jian, Zhu Youan was impeccable in every other way, and most importantly, his mother liked her.

"What about Wen Jian How would you handle things with Wen Jian if I got married to you As you know, there's me without her, and her without me."

It was a red light, Zhuo Yu'an stepped on the brakes and turned to look at her, saying seriously.

“One is a friend, the other is a wife. You tell me what I would choose”

What she meant was that she asked a stupid question, and he couldn't be bothered to answer.

Wife

Shu Tinglan chewed on the word, for some reason her heart suddenly felt lighter. She secretly smiled, afraid he would see, she bit her lip and turned to look out the window.

After escorting her home, Shu Tinglan didn't let him return to his own place. Over the past two days, she seemed to have lost that sense of fear and wanted to try living alone.

"Are you sure" Zhu Yu'an still wasn't quite reassured.

"OK."

"Okay, if you're scared, just call me anytime. Also about my suggestion before, if you think it's feasible, I can pick you up tomorrow morning and take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Your household registration book is with me."

Shutinglan's heart was in turmoil, she didn't respond and walked forward.

"Listen to the waves..." He called out again behind him.

She stopped and looked at him, standing quietly there waiting for him to speak.

All he said was, "See you tomorrow."

He made a very sincere and firm promise to meet her tomorrow.

Shutinglan thought that the boldest and most impulsive thing she had ever done in her life was to get married to Zhu YUAN. The whole process was incredibly fast. Zhu Yuan came to pick her up very early, they were the first in line, took a photo, signed their names, and the red booklet was in hand.

She had insomnia all night, weighing the pros and cons. Unable to sleep, she got up and turned on her computer. Using the system based on her self-defined value system, she input various conditions, and the final conclusion was that she should get married.

Even now, she was still a little dazed. She believed that her value system's judgment must have been the most rational and optimal choice, but she thought that she might also be wrong after all, because marriage, besides rational judgment, also requires a part of emotion.

Does she still have time to regret this

At this moment, Zhu Yunan was staring intently at the photo on the marriage certificate. He looked at it for a long time, so long that Shu Tinglan thought he might be regretting it. If he regretted it, she figured he could just go through with a divorce.

But then, he finally looked up at her and said...

"I shouldn't have stayed up all night in the car last night. I look a little tired in the photos, not handsome enough." He just thought that Shu Tinglan beside him was too good-looking and dazzling, making him look bad in comparison.

Shu Tinglan rolled her eyes and shoved the marriage certificate into her bag. She, of course, had a little trick up her sleeve this morning. She went out with natural makeup, making her complexion look radiant and flawless.

“Hurry up and drive, I’m going to be late for work.”

She only took a two-hour leave today.

"Okay. Let's go grab dinner after work and celebrate"

"Okay."

Until she arrived at the company, Shu Tinglan suddenly remembered that when she had considered it last night, she had forgotten a major factor: Zhu YUAN's motive Getting a marriage certificate had a hundred benefits for her, but what about Zhu YUAN It seemed like there were no benefits at all!!

She sent him a simple message:

"Busy"

"" He replied more simply.

Maybe he was really busy, so she decided to wait until later to talk. She put down her phone and got back to work. It wasn't until noon that she saw another message from him on her phone.

“What’s wrong Missing me already”

Shu Tinglan:......

“Why do you have to listen to my mom and get married” She still felt like she was dreaming, wanting to confirm again.

No more words, let's drink to this wedding.ne for good.When Zhuo Yu and An raised their glasses, he suddenly said cheekily, “From now on, I’ll have to rely on you for support.”Just some thoughts, a joke.To my surprise, Zhuo Yu'an, despite his...
