- Chapter 2 - A Whirlwind Marriage with the Ex-Fiancé’s Younger Brother!
The bar was noisy, but Li Su still clearly heard Huo Xuanye’s words.
Since Huo Zhenzhou could marry another woman, then she could marry another man too!
Li Su admitted there was a hint of spite in her decision.
But marrying Huo Xuanye, Huo Zhenzhou’s own younger brother, and living under the same roof would not only annoy Huo Zhenzhou, but also infuriate him once he regained his memory. Why not go for it?
“Alright~”
Huo Xuanye’s eyes had already been glazed over, but hearing her agreement made his heart race. He froze for a second.
She actually agreed!
The woman he’d called “sister-in-law” for a year was about to become his wife!
This was so damn dramatic!
And so damn thrilling!
No time to waste, let’s go now!
Huo Xuanye leaned down to pick up her bag, a wicked smirk flashing briefly in his eyes. “No backing out now. Let’s go get our marriage license!”
Li Su slowly stood up. “Now? Isn’t the civil affairs office closed?”
Huo Xuanye steadied her arm as they walked out. “Not yet!”
How could it still be open?
Next to the bar was a large shopping mall, and inside the mall was a marriage registration office.
To boost marriage rates, local governments had come up with all sorts of strategies, even setting up registration offices in shopping malls.
By the time they stood in front of the marriage registration counter, handing over their IDs, Li Su was completely dazed.
Just this afternoon, she had been heartbroken over her missing fiancé marrying someone else. And now, by nightfall, she had impulsively married his younger brother!
The clerk handed them two brand-new marriage certificates. “Congratulations, and happy newlywed life!”
Huo Xuanye swiftly grabbed the certificates, his lips curling up. “Sister-in-law, no regrets now~”
The clerk’s jaw dropped.
Σ(°△°|||)︴
What the?
Sister-in-law?
A real-life forbidden romance?!
Li Su lifted her red-rimmed eyes.
Huo Xuanye’s heart clenched. Damn, he was such an asshole!
Li Su was already devastated over the man she loved marrying someone else, and here he was, taking advantage of her vulnerability and even rubbing salt in the wound.
“Time to change how you address me now… wife!”
Li Su blinked dazedly, her lips parting slightly, but no sound came out. No matter how she tried to address him, it just felt weird.
Huo Xuanye didn’t wait for her response. He scooped her up and dashed off as if someone might stop them and force a divorce any second, heading straight for the escalator.
“Let’s go home and celebrate our wedding night!”
Li Su clung to Huo Xuanye, her head spinning. She felt awful~
The way he was jostling her made her nauseous~
“Slow down… please slow down… I’m gonna throw up~”
Huo Xuanye obediently slowed his pace, heading toward a trash can. “Need to puke?”
“No.”
Huo Xuanye immediately changed direction.
They got into the car, where Huo Xuanye’s assistant, Zhuang Ze, stared in disbelief at the sight of him carrying Li Su.
He rubbed his eyes hard, but the scene remained the same, Huo Xuanye even had two freshly printed marriage certificates on his lap.
Holy heavens!
What kind of twisted plot was this?!
The eldest young master, missing for three months, had returned with a woman, and now the youngest young master had married the eldest’s ex-fiancé in a flash!
The Huo family mansion was bound to be a battlefield from now on.
Old Master Huo Qiangcang loved a lively household, preferred having the whole family under one roof, and cherished harmony above all.
Since neither Huo Zhenzhou nor Huo Xuanye had been married before, they had always lived together in the Huo family estate.
The four-story grand villa housed the elderly couple on the fourth floor, Huo Bowen and his wife Xiao Qiyu on the third, while Huo Zhenzhou and Huo Xuanye resided on the second.
The car drove all the way to the Huo residence, with Li Su leaning drowsily against Huo Xuanye.
Huo Xuanye glanced down at her, someone who had cried so hard alone in the bar must have been utterly heartbroken.
After loving someone for so long, even being engaged for a year, only for them to lose their memory and marry someone else.
Without even knowing who she was.
The car entered the Huo estate. Late at night, the villa was quiet, with only a few lights still on.
Huo Xuanye carried Li Su upstairs via the elevator and into his room, unnoticed the entire way.
He laid her down on the bed, the black-and-gray sheets now cradling a fair, delicate, and stunning beauty for the first time.
Li Su seemed to be asleep, yet her face still bore traces of sorrow.
Huo Xuanye sat by the bed, reaching out to brush away the strands of hair clinging to her damp cheeks. She must be uncomfortable sleeping like this.
Since they were already married, no matter how delicate Li Su was, as her husband, he ought to spoil and indulge her!
After all, Li Su was now his wife.
Thanks, bro, for the wife!
Heh heh~
As dawn gradually broke, a gentle breeze swept through, and the villa’s staff had already risen to begin their work.
The faint morning light seeped through the gaps in the curtains, casting slender rays into the dimly lit room.
From beneath the black-and-gray covers, two pale, slender hands emerged, followed by a lazy yawn as Li Su opened her eyes.
Staring at the unfamiliar ceiling, her already groggy mind completely short-circuited.
Where was this?
Her hand groped around beside her and landed on a face.
Her pupils dilated in shock.
She remembered going to the bar last night, had she picked up a one-night stand?
Drunken recklessness?
“Ahhh!!”
Li Su bolted upright.
Huo Xuanye had been scratched awake by her hand. Sitting up with a resigned expression, he lazily grabbed the marriage certificate from the nightstand and tossed it in front of her before leaning back against the headboard.
Li Su pointed at the red booklet. “Huo Xuanye, what is this?”
“A marriage certificate. Ours. Don’t tell me you’ve lost your memory too?”
The words “lost your memory” struck a nerve with Li Su.
She shot him a glare.
Huo Xuanye was as wild and unruly as ever, his behavior utterly unpredictable.
Her fingers trembled as she tentatively touched the corner of the certificate before quickly pulling back.
Tch.
Look at how timid she was.
Huo Xuanye couldn’t resist teasing her. “Sis-in-law, last night you were bawling and dragging me to get married. You just love our Huo family’s handsome faces since my brother got married, you set your sights on me instead. You wanted me to be his substitute.”
Li Su: “???”
“Ah well, what can I say? I’m just too kind-hearted. Can’t stand to see a beauty cry, so I had to sacrifice myself for your sake.” Huo Xuanye flipped open one of the certificates. “Look closely… our photo, the official seal from the Civil Affairs Bureau. It’s as real as it gets.”
Li Su picked up the other certificate, scrutinizing and tracing it carefully, it definitely didn’t seem fake.
With Huo Xuanye’s reminder, fragments of last night’s memories slowly resurfaced.
“Huo Xuanye, you dared to trick me!”
“Hm?” Huo Xuanye spun the certificate lazily on his finger. “What did I trick you about?”
Li Su gritted her teeth. “It was you who made me marry you! Not me crying and begging you to marry me!”
Huo Xuanye smirked. “Oh? Your memory came back pretty fast.”
“You…”
“Stop with the ‘you, you, you’, call me ‘hubby’ instead,” Huo Xuanye murmured as he leaned in closer, his eyes crinkling with amusement. “Last night, right after we got our marriage certificate, you fell asleep. I carried you all the way home, and you even threw up on me. Then I stayed up with you while you cursed my brother for being a scumbag. Don’t I deserve a sweet, affectionate ‘hubby’ after all that?”
