Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Whereas this woman?
She had no makeup on and was wearing an old casual shirt. More critically, she was wearing sneakers!
Sports shoes!
So old-fashioned!
Standing next to this man, they looked like a complete mismatch.
Chu He felt as if everyone was looking in her direction.
These people were looking at her with contempt, disdain, and even…
Hostility!
Why were they all looking at her!?
Gu Jinglian asked expressionlessly, “How long do we have to wait?”
“I don’t know…” Chu He looked at the number disc and then at the window. They were calling for number 28 and she was holding number 65.
“We’ll probably have to wait another hour.”
“How troublesome.” Gu Jinglian walked to an empty seat.
Chu He also walked over and sat down beside him. Before she could settle down in her seat, the looks that she was getting from all directions became increasingly obvious. For a moment, it was as if there was a sharp backlash.
“Look, that woman is really miserly…”
“Why are the women that handsome guys marry always so… I just can’t find the words for it.”
“Actually, this woman is quite pretty. It’s just that her dressing is a little unsightly.”
“Could those sneakers have been bought from a wayside stall? I saw that the man is wearing a Patek Philippe watch. I heard that it cost several million yuan each! This is the first time I’ve seen an actual watch.”
All the eyes immediately fell on the watch on Gu Jinglian’s wrist.
“Patek Philippe! Could it be a fake?”
“It can’t be a fake! It’s very exquisite. Also, this man has excellent carriage. He’s either rich or noble. One look and you can tell he’s a young master.”
“Then why is he marrying this woman?”
“No matter how poor you are, you still have to dress up a little! At least wear a white shirt.”
…
Even though the discussions were in hushed tones, Gu Jinglian and Chu He could hear them quite clearly.
Gu Jinglian looked in the direction of the voices and narrowed his eyes dangerously. Those who were gossiping immediately turned their heads away nervously, not daring to take another look.
The world seemed to have finally quieten down.
Gu Jinglian turned and coldly sized up Chu He’s clothes. He frowned slightly. “Why are you wearing this?”
Chu He replied, “I only have a few pieces of clothing that I wear on rotation.”
“Why didn’t you buy more clothes?”
Gu Jinglian said unhappily, “I remember that Butler Fu would transfer money to your account every month.”
“That’s your money. Why should I use it?” Chu He said expressionlessly, “I have my own hands and feet, I can earn money to buy clothes.”
Why should she use his money to buy herself clothes?
Gu Jinglian was speechless. This woman was so poor that she had nothing but her backbone.
He suddenly stood up and said to her, “Get up.”
Chu He stared at him blankly. “What?”
“Buy some clothes.” With that, he walked towards the exit.
His tone and chosen words were especially in line with his unique style. He did not seem to be asking for her opinion.
Chu He was confused, “Hey! We don’t have to specially buy clothes for this, right? It’s just a marriage certificate!”
Seeing Gu Jinglian walk further and further away, she stood up reluctantly and ran after him.
Behind them, the group of people looked at each other, puzzled.
What was going on? There’s actually a woman who doesn’t like shopping, dressing up or buying clothes?
From what the man had said, he gave that woman money every month. Could it be…
“Could she be a kept woman?”
“Why would a kept lover be here to register marriage?”
Everyone was confused.
