Pei Ge absentmindedly looked at the other pairs of lovers in the Civil Affairs Bureau as she was led by Ji Ziming to the waiting area.
“Wait here.”
The moment they reached the waiting area, and once she sat down, he left her without explaining anything and disappeared around a bend.
In his absence, she was finally able to dispel the gloominess inside her with a sigh.
“Sister, why are you sighing? Your husband is so handsome; do you still feel discontented?” The woman sitting next to her asked out of the blue.
The sound of a voice startled Pei Ge, and she turned to see who had spoken, only to find a lady around her age. The stranger had eyes filled with envy.
“Erm…”
The lady did not wait for her to respond and merely continued with a smile, “Sister, I really envy you. Your marriage partner is so handsome. He seems like a caring person, too.”
Her mouth twitched at the corner at the lady’s words.
She was really tempted to ask the lady in what way did that annoying fellow look caring to her.
“Ke ke…” Not knowing how to react to her words, Pei Ge simply laughed wryly.
“Hey, if my spouse is half as good-looking as yours, I will be smiling every day.” Despite Pei Ge’s lackluster response, the lady was not discouraged from speaking about her personal life.
From this conversation, she learned that the lady had met her marriage partner through a blind date.
The two were dating for less than half a year when they decided to get married at the Civil Affairs Bureau. They were currently preparing to hold a wedding banquet.
Though the lady was fussy about her partner’s appearance, she could still hear the blissfulness in her voice.
Pei Ge was, in actuality, envious of the lady.
Sometimes, a person’s outward appearance was not as important as having a good heart.
She had never demanded for her other half to be good-looking; her only wish was for her future partner to only love her and to always treat her with sincerity.
Regrettably, she had never met such a man.
“Sister, did your other half make you angry today?” The lady covered her mouth and giggled when she noticed how deep in thought Pei Ge was.
Abashed, she licked her lips and then shook her head. “No.”
“Ke ke. Sometimes, you just have to go along with what your man wants. Forget about his personality, every man is just a bit of a chauvinist at heart. This is especially the case in times of argument. Don’t even think of winning; there’s no winning or losing between a husband and a wife. Only by remaining harmonious can a married couple truly win.”
Pei Ge’s eyes widened at the lady’s words. This was her first time hearing such a statement!
“Er, Big Sister, why do you know so much about life as a married couple?” She blinked her eyes in confusion at the lady sitting next to her.
“Ke ke, this is actually my second marriage, so I’m actually speaking from experience.” The lady was not ashamed to admit that she was a divorcée.
Pei Ge nodded with a smile.
“I find it easy to talk to you, so I’m telling you this. The disposition of your good-looking other half seems to be above average; many shameless women will certainly try to get between you two. You should do as I’ve said. Though there’s no guarantee of the result, at least you will be able to live comfortably,” the lady kindly advised.
Pei Ge only reacted once she heard this kind of advice.
The lady was apparently worried of her getting cheated on because that annoying fellow was too good-looking while she was too plain-looking.
Upon this realization, for a moment, she did not know whether to laugh or cry in response.
Forget about her not being in that kind of relationship with the man, the marriage itself was just a pretense.
Still, even if her relationship with the man were true and the marriage were real, she would never doubt that annoying person regarding such matter.
This was because that man had neither treated the female population nicely nor dated any woman.
For some reason, she felt that he was the type to remain faithful once he found his true love.
“Ah Yan, all the paperwork is settled; let’s go.”
The lady still wanted to continue imparting her knowledge about life as a married woman, but her tall and tanned partner walked up to them just then.
The moment the lady saw her man, a wide smile quickly crept across her lips.
“Sister, I’ll be taking my leave now. Remember not to argue with your man when you are mad. A man needs to be sweet-talked, or else another woman will snatch him away.” The woman left her with these words.
Pei Ge, who was left alone in the waiting area, kept thinking of the lady’s last piece of advice.
Sweet-talk that annoying person?
She shuddered at the thought.
Forget it; just thinking about that is scary enough.
“Let’s go take a photo now.”
As she was imagining a scene of her cajoling the man, the latter appeared before her and indifferently gave this instruction.
She immediately retracted her thoughts at his order. Looking up, her eyes were greeted by the man’s winsome face.
She inadvertently recalled that wild imagination she had had earlier, and her cheeks blushed furiously.
“Ah, o-oh. Sure,” she lowered her head and muttered guiltily.
Seeing her act like this, the man was actually really curious but, in the end, did bother pursuing the matter.
“Let’s go,” he repeated before walking away.
She took a deep, calming breath and then got up from the chair and trailed after the man.
Looking at his tall and slender back, her eyes gradually softened.
She was going to be his wife.
While it was fake, she was still a little happy…
As she was secretly feeling elated, the man was not any calmer.
The dumb woman was going to be his wife…
Unbeknown to him, the corners of his mouth arched upward in happiness.
