Chapter 2: Chapter 2: He's married, and the bride isn't her_1
Editor: Atlas Studios
"Yes, Mr. Ye." Upon realizing the decision was already made, Bai Chen had no choice but to suppress his doubts.
No matter what Su Hongxing's intentions were, it was an undeniable fact that Ye Qilan was interested in her, and the process mattered little.
Without paying any more attention to others, Ye Qilan, surrounded by the crowd, leisurely walked away.
It took Su Hongxing half an hour to finally figure out what had happened.
The interview she just witnessed was Ye Qilan's selection process for his future wife, and she was "lucky" enough to be chosen. The registration Ye Qilan had mentioned was, in fact, a marriage registration.
She had no idea who had brought her to Ye Qilan, nor did she understand how her personal information had ended up in Bai Chen's hands.
No matter how she tried to explain to Bai Chen, his response was the same - she was to obediently go with Ye Qilan to register their marriage on the following Monday, without any tricks, or else she would bear the consequences.
Dazed, Su Hongxing left the hotel, only to realize it was the same hotel where she had attended a class reunion...
When she returned to the Xiao's household, it was already one in the morning.
She and Xiao Ji had agreed to get married as soon as she graduated.
However, she wasn't able to get through to Xiao Ji that night.
The next morning, Xiao Ji didn't call her back. Instead, she received a call from Zhou Luhe.
"Su Hongxing, I have a fantastic thing to show you. Are you home?" Zhou Luhe's voice was soft and coy, like whispering sweet nothings to a lover.
Su Hongxing thought that if she were a man, she would probably be tempted by Zhou Luhe's voice too.
As soon as Su Hongxing opened the door, Zhou Luhe stepped inside.
"What is it? Out with it." Su Hongxing couldn't muster a pleasant countenance for Zhou Luhe.
"I want to show you something wonderful." Zhou Luhe said as she reached into her bag to take out a prepared surprise for Su Hongxing.
Seeing the bold words "Marriage Certificate," Su Hongxing's heart raced.
Why was Zhou Luhe showing her this?
Could it be that this woman had gotten married?
"I came all this way especially to tell you personally that I'm married. Congratulate me." Zhou Luhe opened the marriage certificate and made sure Su Hongxing saw the photos of the man and woman inside.
Upon identifying the man in the certificate, Su Hongxing's pupils shrank, the color drained from her face, and her heart ached with every throb.
"Xiao Ji and I have been together for three years. As soon as I graduated, he couldn't wait to make it official. He even promised to give me a lavish wedding. From now on, Xiao Ji is my man."
Seeing Su Hongxing's pale face, Zhou Luhe felt a triumphant delight.
"You must come to our wedding. The date hasn't been set yet, but I'll send you an invitation later." Zhou Luhe took the marriage certificate back from Su Hongxing and gracefully left.
After quite some time, Su Hongxing still felt as if she were in a dream.
It must be a dream; how else could so many things have happened within 24 hours?
Not long ago, Xiao Ji had told her that he hoped to marry her and bring her home soon.
But when was that? Half a year ago, a year, two years, or even three years ago?
She tried to call Xiao Ji again, her fingertips trembling.
There was still no answer at the other end. She suddenly realized that she hadn't been in touch with Xiao Ji for a month.
When things were good between them, they could talk on the phone for two to three hours straight.
When did Xiao Ji start keeping a distance from her?
