Chapter 18: Marriage Report, Don’t Worry, I Won’t Run Away

The manager led the way, his ears perked up, listening to the sounds behind him.

He knew Luo Qianyun, so he was even more curious about their relationship…

“It’s not like he’s some kind of shield. I really thought he might be a good guy before,” Luo Qianyun said.

If not for this incident, if Luo Qianyun hadn’t seen through Lu Yan’s true face, she had considered just letting her life go on like this.

In the private room, Luo Qianyun was carefully placed on a chair.

Watching the manager close the door, the two of them ordered food. While waiting for the dishes, Luo Qianyun kept glancing at Lu Yunzheng…

“Something you want to say?” Lu Yunzheng asked.

“What do you think of me?” Luo Qianyun asked cautiously.

Lu Yunzheng poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Luo Qianyun. “In what way?”

“Everything, I want to hear your overall impression.” Luo Qianyun said.

Hearing this, Lu Yunzheng took a sip of tea and then looked at her. “Not bad.”

Luo Qianyun: “Well, since your blind date failed, why don’t we get married?”

“My blind date failed?” Lu Yunzheng’s hand paused slightly.

“…” Luo Qianyun, she spoke too quickly and revealed it.

“I wasn’t intentionally eavesdropping, it was just that the girl on the blind date passed by and I accidentally heard her talking to her mom.” Luo Qianyun said sheepishly.

Lu Yunzheng understood when he heard this. Luo Qianyun had misunderstood…

He was about to explain, but Luo Qianyun continued, “The point isn’t that, the point is, what do you think about us getting married? I think you, Captain Lu, are definitely a career-driven man, you probably don’t want to be pressured by your family to get married, right? It just so happens that I want to get married, and it would be even better if it was a military marriage.”

“Why me?” Lu Yunzheng’s voice was slightly hoarse.

“My situation is a bit complicated, I think I need the protection of a marriage.” Luo Qianyun knew that what she was saying sounded a little cold-blooded, but it was because she needed it, so she was dragging someone into the grave.

But she couldn’t think about it too much. Today’s incident made Luo Qianyun understand that as long as she had value, she would definitely be squeezed dry.

This time it was Luo Qi, he would consider her.

Next time, if something similar happened, she wouldn’t be so lucky.

Because she knew very well that with her looks and education, the Luo family could ‘sell’ her for a good price.

If she jumped out of the pool of young and talented men, her market would be huge.

And if she got married, her value would obviously decrease significantly.

It would be even better if it was a military marriage, anyone who wanted to do anything would be destroying a military marriage.

Lu Yunzheng’s silence also made Luo Qianyun feel increasingly guilty, and her voice unconsciously became quieter. “Actually, I was just saying it casually…”

The two of them sat in silence for a while, sipping tea, before the dishes started to arrive.

Luo Qianyun was still a little embarrassed, so she just kept her head down and ate. After all, what kind of nonsense had she just said to Lu Yunzheng, her savior?

If their positions were reversed, it would be like taking advantage of someone’s kindness.

But if you put yourself in his shoes, if Lu Yunzheng wanted to marry her, wouldn’t that be considered taking advantage of her?

Luo Qianyun, who had been a scoundrel for the first time in her life, felt even more ashamed to face him.

Seeing Luo Qianyun’s head almost buried in her rice bowl, Lu Yunzheng couldn’t help but say, “Look up, eat properly.”

“Hmm…” Luo Qianyun lifted her head slightly, continuing to eat with her head down.

After a long time, just when Luo Qianyun thought Lu Yunzheng was going to eat in silence, she heard his voice suddenly ring out, “If I refuse, would you marry someone else?”

“Huh?” Luo Qianyun looked up at him, her eyes filled with confusion.

“You said you need the protection of marriage.” Lu Yunzheng said.

Luo Qianyun realized, but she misunderstood his meaning. “You… are you going to introduce someone to me?”

“Do you need it?” Lu Yunzheng didn’t answer directly.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Qianyun didn’t refuse. “Well, if there’s someone suitable, it’s not impossible.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Qianyun felt a little cold…

Lu Yunzheng remained silent for a while longer, until Luo Qianyun finished the food in her bowl, before she heard him say, “I agree to you.”

Agree to what?

Luo Qianyun, who had been too focused on eating, had forgotten the unfinished topic.

Perhaps seeing Luo Qianyun’s momentary confusion, Lu Yunzheng deflated. “I agree to marry you.”

Wow, Luo Qianyun’s chopsticks almost fell…

It was she who proposed it, but now she was the one who was caught off guard.

She tried to calm herself down. “That… don’t worry, if you meet a girl you like, we can get divorced. As for your compensation for becoming a second-time married man, we’ll see how my financial situation is, if I’m doing better financially, I’ll give you more.”

“…” Lu Yunzheng never imagined that one day a girl would talk to him so formally about divorce compensation, and he was the one being compensated.

Seeing Lu Yunzheng not speaking, Luo Qianyun thought for a moment and continued, “Although we’re getting married, don’t worry, I won’t interfere with your life. You’re in the army, I’m in A City, we’ll each work hard for our own careers. How do you feel about that?”

Looking at Luo Qianyun’s face, which couldn’t hide her joy, Lu Yunzheng finally didn’t say anything else. “Okay.”

“So when are we going to get the marriage certificate?” Luo Qianyun asked expectantly.

“Within a month.” Lu Yunzheng said.

“Why so long?” Luo Qianyun was a little deflated. If this was delayed, what if Lu Yunzheng changed his mind?

She had finally found such a suitable marriage partner, and his external conditions also happened to fit her preferences, Luo Qianyun really didn’t want to change her mind.

“Need to file a marriage report, it will be approved within a month.” As he spoke, Lu Yunzheng seemed to guess her worries, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “Don’t worry, I won’t run away.”

Her secret thoughts were exposed, Luo Qianyun also smiled a little embarrassedly.

“Then I’ll pick you up tomorrow, there are some documents you need to prepare.” Lu Yunzheng said.

Although she couldn’t directly solve it for nine yuan, but the partner was Lu Yunzheng, she was still very willing to cooperate.

Lu Yunzheng: “Happy?”

“Happy, of course.” Luo Qianyun propped her chin in her hands and looked at him. “Who wouldn’t be happy when their future husband is handsome and secure?”

“We’ve only met twice, aren’t you afraid of meeting the wrong person?” Lu Yunzheng asked.

“I trust the country, and even more, I trust my intuition.” Luo Qianyun said.

“So what happened today?” Lu Yunzheng gestured to Luo Qianyun’s arm. “That’s a new injury.”

Looking at the freshly bandaged wound, Luo Qianyun didn’t expect to be able to deceive Lu Yunzheng. He knew very well if she had an injury on her arm before.

After much hesitation, Luo Qianyun finally told him what happened today…

Although the two of them hadn’t officially gotten married yet, in the end, they had already reached a cooperative relationship. If she kept it a secret and hesitated, it would feel like she didn’t trust him.

Lu Yunzheng had imagined many possibilities, but he had never imagined this kind of situation that Luo Qianyun had encountered.

“To force you to apologize, to make you take the blame, they actually went this far. No wonder you said you needed the protection of marriage…” Lu Yunzheng originally planned to follow Luo Qianyun’s rhythm, each of them not interfering with the other.

But now, Lu Yunzheng had changed his mind.
