Before my father passed away, he forced me to marry the heir of a wealthy family.

Haicheng...

In the early summer morning, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was gentle, with a hint of coolness blowing in from the window.

The hair on Fang Ning's forehead was blown by the wind, flying on her delicate and fair face. Her big, watery eyes looked at the receding street scene outside the window.

Her hands tightly held the bag in her arms, which contained her household registration book and ID card.

Although she had already promised her father, she decided to get a marriage certificate from the man she had never met.

However, when it came to this moment, she still felt a little uneasy.

She was unwilling to marry a stranger rashly like this.

However, thinking of her father lying in the hospital bed, she resolutely embarked on the road to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

The bus stopped at the Civil Affairs Bureau station, and Fang Ning put on her backpack and got off the bus from the back door.

Ten meters away was the gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Fang Ning raised his eyes and took a few glances before walking towards it.

The gate of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Under the sun, an old man over seventy years old with gray hair on his temples was looking towards the roadside.

Seeing Fang Ning, the old man showed a kind smile on his face and waved, "Girl, here."

Fang Ning raised his eyes and saw that although the old man's hair was a little white, his face was rosy, his face was full of energy, his body was tall and straight, and he had a vague sense of majesty.

Although she had never met him, she already knew who this old man was.

She walked over quickly and said hello with a smile, "Hello, Grandpa Huo!"

The old man looked at her with a smile, "Okay, okay, girl, you are even more beautiful than in the photo."

Fang Ning smiled and said, "Grandpa Huo praised me!"

Grandpa Huo glanced back and shouted in a deep voice, "Don't come over yet."

Then, a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses got out of a black Audi.

The man is tall, with fair skin and handsome features. He is wearing a white polo shirt, khaki casual pants, and ordinary black and white sneakers.

Very ordinary clothing, but it gives people a very noble feeling!

Fang Ning stared at him for a few times. He looked refreshing and elegant with glasses. He didn't look like a 29-year-old. He was only 25-[-] at most.

The man raised his eyes and looked over, and his eyes lit up. This woman was so unphotogenic. She was very ordinary in the photo and could be considered pretty at best, but she was so beautiful in reality.

Although she was a beautiful woman, he still looked down upon her. He wanted to climb high just because she was kind to his family. He despised this kind of woman from the bottom of his heart.

Although he was disgusted in his heart, his upbringing still allowed him to maintain basic courtesy and did not show it too obviously.

"Girl, this is my grandson Huo Huaizhou." Grandpa Huo introduced with a smile.

Fang Ning stretched out his right hand with a smile on his face, "Hello, my name is Fang Ning."

Huo Huaizhou glanced at her slender white hand, stretched out his hand slowly, touched it lightly, and said in a calm voice, "Huo Huaizhou."

"Now that you two know each other, hurry in and apply for the certificate." Grandpa Huo urged from the side.

Fang Ning smiled slightly.

Huo Huaizhou glanced at the woman beside him indifferently, and walked inside with a cold face.

Grandpa Huo glanced at his grandson, turned to Fang Ning and said, "Girl, you and Huai Zhou go to get the certificate. Grandpa has something to do, so he should leave first."

"Okay, Grandpa Huo."

"Go quickly!" Grandpa Huo waved his hand.

"Well, goodbye Grandpa Huo!"

Afterwards, Fang Ning trotted to keep up with Huo Huaizhou.

There were many people in the hall and there was a long queue. Fang Ning consciously walked to the back of the queue to queue up.

Huo Huaizhou glanced at Fang Ning, feeling even more disgusted in his heart. A woman rushing to get married was so shameless. He walked directly to the chair in the waiting area and sat down.

When Fang Ning turned to look at Huo Huaizhou, the man looked at her with a cold face and lowered his eyes.

Fang Ning knew that he must have been forced to come to collect the certificate today, so he kept sullen and ignored her.

Forget it, it doesn't matter, she just needs to get the marriage certificate, take it back and show it to her father.

After waiting for nearly an hour, it was Fang Ning's turn. She turned around and shouted to Huo Huaizhou, "Mr. Huo, it's our turn, come here quickly."

Huo Huaizhou frowned when he heard her voice. He was so anxious. Was he afraid that he would run away?

He stood up leisurely, straightened his clothes and pants, and then walked over slowly.

The staff member looked at the two people and asked seriously, "How long have you known each other?"

She heard clearly just now that the girl in front of her called this man, she was about to get married. How could she call him 'sir'?

Fang Ning raised her eyes and glanced at the man beside her. When she saw that he had no intention of speaking, she said, "We've known him for a long time."

It was already here, and she didn't want to cause any trouble. She had to take the marriage certificate back to show her father today.

"Really?" The staff didn't believe it and looked at the man who was speechless and expressionless.

Huo Huaizhou waited for several seconds before responding, "Yes."

Fang Ning was nervous, but she still had the guts to add, "We've known each other since we were kids."

Huo Huaizhou sneered at the corner of his mouth and lied blatantly in front of him. He couldn't wait to enter his house, wanted to fly up a branch and become a phoenix.

The staff handed over two forms and said, "Fill this in first."

"it is good."

Fang Ning and Huo Huaizhou sat on chairs and carefully filled out the forms and handed them to the staff.

The staff looked at the list and reminded, "Marriage is not a child's play, you should be careful when getting married."

"Yes, we know." Fang Ning smiled sarcastically and handed the ID card and household registration book to the staff.

Huo Huaizhou didn't take it out of his trouser pocket and hand it over until the staff reminded him of his ID.

More than ten minutes later, a person walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau holding a marriage certificate.

Huo Huaizhou looked at Fang Ning, his face was expressionless, and he said in a cold voice, "No matter what, we have already obtained the marriage certificate. According to custom, as the man, I will provide you with housing."

Then, he took out a key from his trouser pocket and handed it to Fang Ning, "My house is at 2201, Building A, Jinmao International. This is the key."

Fang Ning looked at him blankly and didn't answer.

Huo Huaizhou sneered inwardly. She might have thought she could live in a villa, but it turned out to be a building, so she didn't like it.

He thought this way, and his words were devoid of any emotion, with a slight statement, "Take it, I can't give you anything else, the house is still okay."

Fang Ning pursed her lips and felt a hint of bitterness in her heart. Did he suspect that she was after his money?

Suppressing the sadness in her heart, Fang Ning managed a smile to prevent herself from being too embarrassed, "No need, I have a place to live."

After a while, when Fang Ning didn't answer, Huo Huaizhou took back the key and said calmly, "I have to go to work now."

Fang Ning pursed her lips, "Then go quickly, I have something to do."

Huo Huaizhou glanced at Fang Ning, strode to the Audi car, opened the door, quickly got in and left.

Fang Ning stuffed her marriage certificate into her bag, took a taxi on the side of the road, and headed straight to the high-speed rail station.
