章 2: Life's Grand Package
編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the spring fever had died down in the room, the two of them freshened up quickly and left the hotel. Their relationship had become incredibly intimate.
Zhao Yuxin naturally linked her arm with Xu Yang's, with a sweet smile on her face.
Xu Yang pinched Zhao Yuxin's delicate face and said with a smile, "To register for the marriage certificate, we need our household register and identification card. Let's go to my place first, then yours!"
Earlier, Xu Yang had his parents send over the household register. Originally, he had intended to register after successfully proposing to Zhao Yulu. For that purpose, he had even requested a day of leave from work.
But fate had its way, and it was Zhao Yuxin who ended up by Xu Yang's side.
"Sure!" Zhao Yuxin said and nodded obediently. Earlier, she had also taken leave from work.
Two hours later, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau. The line was quite long, but it was mostly for people registering for divorce.
As for marriage registration, it was scarce, and the procedure could be completed almost immediately.
"Xu Yang, Yuxin, is that you?"
Seeing them, the staff responsible for marriage registration was surprised. She was their university friend, Chen Weiwei.
"We... we're here to register for our marriage!" Zhao Yuxin said as she blushed, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"What? You want to register? Who's your boyfriend? Where is he? Why didn't I know?" Chen Weiwei was astonished and bombarded them with questions.
Zhao Yuxin and Chen Weiwei had kept in touch after graduating, and Chen Weiwei believed Zhao Yuxin was single until now. Chen Weiwei was puzzled by Zhao Yuxin's sudden decision to register for marriage.
Chen Weiwei couldn't help but wonder, 'Could it be a blitz marriage?'
On the other hand, Chen Weiwei didn't suspect Xu Yang because of the way Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin had been behaving. After arriving at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Zhao Yuxin didn't hold onto Xu Yang's arm.
Moreover, Chen Weiwei knew that Xu Yang was Zhao Yulu's boyfriend. There was no way he would be registering for marriage with Zhao Yuxin.
"It's Xu Yang!" Zhao Yuxin said as she hugged Xu Yang's arm, her face red, and shyly lowered her head.
"What?" Chen Weiwei's eyes widened in shock. Her face was full of surprise. "Isn't Xu Yang Zhao Yulu's boyfriend? And you're Yulu's sister. How could you..."
Chen Weiwei felt like her mind was about to explode. She couldn't understand how the relationship among these people became tangled.
Meanwhile, those waiting in line to register for divorce turned their attention to the scene. They began chitter-chattering.
"That's unbelievable! I can't believe that guy had the heart to take on his girlfriend's sister!"
"Wow! Such a melodramatic situation has become a reality! The world is certainly evolving!"
"This girl too. She got involved with her sister's boyfriend and is even coming to register for marriage. Did she not consider her sister's feelings?"
"This guy is a role model! He's handled both sisters and is living the dream of men!"
"Envy at its finest! This guy's fulfilling countless men's fantasies!"
For a moment, the crowd buzzed with discussions. The gazes of fellow men were filled with envy.
With a face as red as an apple, Zhao Yuxin leaned against Xu Yang, shyly enduring the attention.
"Yulu and I are no longer a couple. Destiny brought Yuxin and me together. I've already chosen her. Weiwei, please help us with the registration!" said Xu Yang. His expression was serious.
Xu Yang knew that if they didn't settle the procedure soon, they would continue to be the subject of gossip and speculation.
So, Xu Yang took out both their household registers and identification cards.
"Are you both serious?" Chen Weiwei asked, reminding them.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Both of them nodded in unison.
"Very well!"
Chen Weiwei looked at them deeply, no longer saying much. She quickly processed their paperwork.
"Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and togetherness!"
After a while, Chen Weiwei placed the bright red marriage certificate on the table.
"Thank you, Weiwei!" said Zhao Yuxin. She picked up the marriage certificate, gazing at the photo of the two of them in the booklet, filled with happiness. She had finally become Xu Yang's wife!
"When do you plan to have the wedding?" Chen Weiwei asked.
"We haven't decided yet!" Zhao Yuxin said as she shook her head.
Of course, every girl looked forward to her wedding day. However, Zhao Yuxin didn't want to burden Xu Yang with the pressure, so she didn't mention the wedding plans.
At that moment, Xu Yang smiled and spoke, "Weiwei, rest assured. When we've chosen a suitable day, we'll definitely invite you to our wedding!"
"Sure! I will be there to celebrate with both of you on that day," Chen Weiwei laughed.
After that, the two of them left the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Meanwhile, the voice of the system resounded.
BEEP!
Congratulations on accepting Zhao Yuxin and registering for marriage. You have received the Life's Grand Package reward. Do you want to open it?
"Open it!"
Without any hesitation, Xu Yang responded in his mind. He had been eagerly anticipating the system's Life's Grand Package.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have obtained Master-level investment capabilities, 1 million in cash, and a message from the future.
In seven days, the stock value of the Central Bank of Droland will decrease by 2%, and the market value of Neocathai Gold Futures will increase by 30%.
As Xu Yang expected, the hidden reward was the most valuable. With the Master-level investment capabilities and the 1 million in cash, he could now expertly navigate the stock market and that future message was particularly crucial.
Xu Yang had graduated from a finance college and had a decent understanding of the stock market. However, due to limited funds, he had mostly dealt with stocks worth tens of thousands. He had limited experience with futures contracts. But that didn't affect his understanding of the stock market.
With 1 million in hand and a 30% increase in gold futures, along with leverage, Xu Yang could potentially earn 3 million. Most importantly, with the Master-level investment capabilities, he would become a master in the financial market.
"Xu Yang, we've finally registered. We should celebrate!" Zhao Yuxin spoke sweetly as she was glancing at her phone.
"Where would you like to go?" Xu Yang asked. He suppressed his excitement and looked tenderly at Zhao Yuxin.
"How about we go to my dad's place? My dad makes the best spicy and sour fish slices," Zhao Yuxin said as she blinked.
Zhao Yuxin's father ran a small restaurant, and the business was good. Since they had just registered, they needed to visit each other's parents.
"Sounds good!" Xu Yang said as he smiled and nodded.
Soon after, the two of them took a car to Zhao Yuxin's father's restaurant.
As soon as they arrived at the restaurant, Zhao Yuxin joyfully called out, "Dad!"
Zhao Yuxin's family was quite complex. Her parents divorced when she was young, and she chose to live with her father. Her older sister, Zhao Yulu, chose to stay with their mother.
After the divorce, Zhao Yuxin's father managed the restaurant and raised her on his own. In contrast, her mother married into wealth, and her sister lived the life of an affluent young lady.
Influenced by her surroundings, Zhao Yulu developed a materialistic attitude, which was a major reason for her breakup with Xu Yang.
