Chapter 8: Divorce After One Month_1

Though a little surprised, when opportunity came, she could not let it slip away.

Yan Ling glanced at her cellphone, it was five thirty, only half an hour left before the civil affairs office closed.

There should be just enough time for the paperwork.

Yan Ling straightened her clothes, and put on a bright smile.

"Why don't we seize the day? Let's go get the marriage license now."

The man's dark eyes deepened, but he did not refuse.

Yan Ling smiled, took the man's hand, and walked dangerously towards her old car parked outside the hotel.

Assistant Jin, slow on the uptake, instinctively wanted to stop her, but before he could do anything, he was met with his own boss's death glare.

A quick learner, Assistant Jin promptly shut up and became the "Invisible Man."

The Civil Affairs Office was only five kilometers away from the Borrman Hotel.

They arrived at the entrance of the civil affairs office ten minutes later.

Watching the beaming newlyweds stagger out from the Civil Affairs Office, Yan Ling's determination to go ahead with this 'fake marriage' was slightly shaken.

Was she really about to marry a complete stranger?

Marriage wasn't a game, maybe there were other ways for Yuan Bao to go to school.

Just when she wanted to retreat, the silent man behind her held her wrist.

He said, "There are fifteen minutes left. You still have time to back out!"

Yan Ling: ...

Back out?

If she missed this opportunity, where else would she go to find such an easily deceived "Cheap Daddy" for Yuan Bao?

Opportunities were not to be passed up. After all, she had no expectations for love, it didn't matter who she married!

"I would never back out! Let's hurry up and go in!"

Fearing that the "Scapegoat" she had found with great difficulty would run away, Yan Ling, without any pretense, slipped her hand into the man's palm and then, holding his hand, walked into the Civil Affairs Office.

Ten minutes later, they had the small red book in their hands.

Staring at the three words 'marriage certificate', Yan Ling was somewhat stunned.

However, it was only for a moment.

She quickly composed herself and from her bag, took out a business card to give to the man beside her, "I've got something else to do. This is my mobile number, if you need your 'wife' for anything, feel free to call."

The man took the card, his brow slightly furrowed. His dark eyes were noticeably colder than when they had just gotten married.

Yan Ling met his cold eyes, feeling a bit uneasy, not knowing which part of her sentence had upset him.

After a thought, an idea struck her. She patted her forehead, then ransacked her bag and pulled out a bank card to give to the man.

"I almost forgot the most important thing. There is fifty thousand yuan on this card for you to use first. After we successfully divorce in one month, I'll give you the remaining fifty thousand."

With a monthly salary of one hundred thousand, he should be satisfied with the compensation, right?

"Divorce in a month?"

The man's face turned dark as soon as he heard this, radiating a formidable and dreadful vibe.

Meeting the man's seemingly cannibalistic gaze, Yan Ling unconstitutionally shivered.

"Well, we could divorce in half a month if you think that's too long."

After all, Yuan Bao's school registration would begin in a week. After the paperwork review, it would take at most half a month.

If he didn't want to fake marry her for that long, they could divorce earlier.

It was just, spending one hundred thousand yuan to hire such an exquisite husband for only half a month, kind of a waste.

Yan Ling thought that by offering this huge concession, the man would definitely be satisfied. Surprisingly, his already pitch-black face turned even darker.

"If that's not possible, we can divorce in a week..."

Sensing danger, Yan Ling instinctively wanted to escape, but before she could move, the man's towering and oppressive figure already engulfed her completely.
