“So… why you want is–or maybe not–that you want me to marry you?” Song Wenxin asked in disbelief, pointing to herself.
“Yes, you could call it that.”
His admission shocked Song Wenxin even more…
Silently, she had been struggling to suss out the real motive behind his words. What he had just said was that he needed a wife… and not that he wanted her to marry him.
Although the two statements did sound similar, they were really polar opposite in meaning!
At that moment, Song Wenxin suddenly made a connection about her phone conversation with Shen Jiayu on the previous night.
On the call, Shen Jiayu had sounded absolutely sure that the man had not touched her.
Could it be… was it because…
Deep in thought, Song Wenxin suddenly assessed the man facing her.
He was very handsome, with perfectly proportionate features and an excellent physique. His long legs were captivatingly attractive; the sight of which was pure eye candy for any observer.
A man with such excellent qualifications would surely have no problems getting a wife, even if he had decided to ditch his role as the president and owner of JS Group!
Yet, he had picked her instead…
She also connected the dots of what had happened on the previous night, when he had not gone further after he had kissed her.
At the same time, Song Wenxin suddenly recalled an article that she had seen when she was researching Jiang Beihan on the internet. The contents of that article had alluded to rumors about Jiang Beihan’s abnormal sexual preference–that he preferred men…
Shocked, and with her heart thumping, Song Wenxin immediately came to a conclusion, which was that this man, in her presence, did not like women!
Or, to put it another way, he probably preferred men!
And he had sought her out to be his wife, most likely to appease his family members, or for some other reasons.
Otherwise, he would not have said that he wanted to marry her!
Following her trail of thoughts and deduction, Song Wenxin realized, in that instant, why he had wanted to marry her.
“Very well. As long as you are willing to help me, I will agree to marry you!” she said, nodding her agreement, knowing very well that, in her present situation, she was left with no other options!
Jiang Beihan looked at her, and his thin lips curled into an inscrutable smile.
…
An hour later, the doors to the civil office were opened.
Although it was already long past its operating hours, the civil office was filled with officials who fell over themselves to attend to them. Without a doubt, Jiang Beihan was the reason why they had made a special appearance.
Holding on to her residence card and other related documents that she had stolen from her house, Song Wenxin looked a little concerned.
“I’m nineteen this year. Surely that means that, legally, I cannot do this without my parents’ approval?” Song Wenxin asked, looking worriedly at Jiang Beihan, who was standing beside her.
She had to be at least twenty before she could get her own marriage license!
“Miss Song, we have already raised your legal age to twenty!” a good-looking man in a black suit and an emotionless face, who had been standing behind Jiang Beihan, spoke up suddenly. He was probably one of Jiang Beihan’s henchmen.
At first, Song Wenxin was a little shocked, but, remembering the status of who she was with, she finally understood.
He was Jiang Beihan and getting her age amended was something that would not pose a challenge to him at all.
But she was still perturbed that she had grown a year older and not by her own choice!
In acceptance, she sighed and tried to console herself silently.
It was only a marriage… no big deal. After all, they were only getting married in name with no consummation!
She was willing to do anything to save her brother!
They were given two forms and Jiang Beihan had his filled out very quickly.
As for Song Wenxin, she stopped writing after filling in her name.
She looked up and stole a glance at Jiang Beihan and the stoned dude standing behind him.
