Flash Marriage with My Ex-Boyfriend’s Nemesis - Chapter 17.3

Ning Qingqing couldn’t help but look up, “Are you making fun of me?”

“No.” Gu Youchen replied seriously, “I’m telling the truth, you really are quite cute.”

Ning Qingqing’s footsteps paused slightly, why did she feel that Gu Youchen was purposely flirting with her? Was it her illusion?

On the other side of the window, the photos had already been delivered, and the staff members cut them skillfully. After Gu Yuchen paid the fee, the staff put the two blank booklets into the printer.

With the sound of printing, one red book was done printing, and then the other.

The staff stuck the photo, stamped it with a seal, and handed over the two red booklets, “They’re done, wish you two newlyweds happiness! “

Gu Youchen reached out and took the two red booklets as his fingers trembled slightly.

He handed Ning Qingqing’s book to her, and Ning Qingqing took it. Looking at both their names side by side, she still felt it was incredible.

She … got married just now?

She didn’t know how she had entered the lobby of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and she was even more bewildered about how she got out.

It wasn’t until sunlight glared on her face, causing her to raise her hand to block out the light, that she realized that within this short day, from breaking up to getting married, it had been so extraordinary that it couldn’t be more extraordinary!

Beside her, Gu Youchen deliberately took a step forward. His tall body helped Ning Qingqing block the glare. He looked down at the girl in front of him, his wife.

Today was bound to be a special day.

Ning Qingqing ended her 9-year relationship and entered a new stage of her life with another person.

Gu Youchen’s 10 years of longing had finally come to fruition; his wish was fulfilled.

Sitting in the car, Ning Qingqing was still holding the red booklet in her hand. She didn’t know why she married Gu Yuchen so suddenly.

Also, she didn’t know how Gu Youchen could be so reckless, marrying a girl whom he only met a few times. Was it just because Xue Wenlan and her daughter spoke so rudely that Gu Youchen couldn’t take it?

Do all Good Samaritans operate so impressively these days?

It was at this moment Ning Qingqing’s phone rang. It was Qiao Xiaomian who called, “Qingqing, I don’t have to work overtime today, should we meet at the boardwalk in front of Xinghe Plaza at 6 o’clock? Want to eat hotpot at Nine Palaces?”

Hearing this, Ning Qingqing subconsciously glanced at Gu Youchen who was beside her.

Her … husband.

Gu Youchen nodded slightly at her. Although he couldn’t hear what was said, he could vaguely guess the identity of the other party.

Ning Qingqing also wanted to have a good chat with her best friend, so she replied, “Okay, then whoever arrives first should start shopping first. “

“En, see you then!” Qiao Xiaomian hung up the phone.

Ning Qingqing put away her phone, and Gu Youchen asked, “Qingqing, did you make plans with your friend? “

Ning Qingqing nodded, “It’s my best friend, Qiao Xiaomian. She invited me to Xinghe Plaza to eat hot pot at six o’clock. “

She was a little hesitant, should she invite Gu Youchen?

Gu Yuchen looked at the time, “It’s still early, I’ll take you home to rest first and change clothes. I’ll give you a ride there when the time comes. You two girls have a good chat then.”

Ning Qingqing nodded, “Okay, thank you.”

Gu Youchen originally wanted to say that now they were married there was no need to be so polite, but he knew that Ning Qingqing still needed time to adapt to their new identities.

He drove all the way to Ning Qingqing’s house, and when he was backing up, his phone rang.

“Qingqing help me take a look.” Gu Youchen asked naturally.

Ning Qingqing picked it up, looked, then said: “It’s showing that it’s from Zhou Luo. “

“Zhou Luo is my special assistant, you can answer the call for me.” Gu Yuchen said, “Just turn on the speaker.”

Ning Qingqing had no choice but to turn on the speaker after answering the call.

“CEO Gu, are you available?” Zhou Luo’s voice sounded a little urgent, “Shen Group probably made some moves last night, because I saw Shen Zhiqian had dinner alone with CEO Wen last night. Today, CEO Wen’s attitude towards us was obviously a little cold, even if the other side gives some face because of CEO Zhou, but ……”

After parking the car, Gu Yuchen picked up the phone and said, “Zhou Luo, in the end, this project is based on mutual interests. Even if CEO Wen has a close relationship with the other party, he can only represent himself. There are a few other major shareholders of his company, have you considered their intentions? “

Because Gu Youchen hadn’t switched off the speaker, Ning Qingqing could hear Zhou Luo’s answer, “CEO Gu, we tried to contact those people, but even with CEO Zhou, the other party won’t give us face. “

Gu Youchen said, “Pass Zhou Linghang the phone, and I’ll talk to him. “

As he spoke, he unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car, and then switched off the speaker.

Just as he was about to help Ning Qingqing open the car door, the girl came out first.

When she heard Gu Yuchen say, “I have some urgent matters here, I can’t make it”, she wanted to speak up, but Gu Yuchen was facing away and wasn’t looking toward her, so she never found a chance.

When the two arrived at Ning Qingqing’s floor, Gu Youchen hadn’t finished the call and continued to explain something to Zhou Linghang.

Ning Qingqing opened the door, and this time the man followed her inside.

Ning Qingqing went to the shoe cabinet and found a new pair of men’s slippers.

Originally, she got these slippers for Shen Zhiqian to wear. Ning Qingqing packed up and threw away all the shoes he wore before, but since this pair was new, so she thought it would be a waste and kept it.

Gu Youchen lowered his head and looked. After putting them on, he went to sit on the sofa in the living room and explained a few more sentences before hanging up.

Ning Qingqing finally found a chance and said, “Mr. Gu, you are probably busy with something, right? Don’t worry about me. It’s just a meeting with my friend tonight, so you can go work on what you have.”

It was only at this moment that she realized that she had a flash marriage, and she had no idea how to get along with this new husband at all.

She also didn’t know why Gu Youchen suddenly wanted to marry her in a flash, and what he had planned for the future …

The matter was set in stone, and now that what was done couldn’t be undone, she felt more at a loss than ever.

Gu Youchen looked at Ning Qingqing’s awkward demeanor, got up, and stood in front of her, “Qingqing, maybe because you feel that it was sudden, so we need to adapt to our current identities? “

Ning Qingqing nodded, “So, you can go, focus on your work, and don’t worry about me. Act as you used to. “

Gu Youchen was dumbfounded by her eagerness to drive him out but still agreed, “That also works, then I’ll go to Beishi first to deal with the work. My friend Zhou Linghang is not that reliable. He may mess things up.”

Ning Qingqing nodded, “En.”

Gu Yuchen said, “When I come back, I will introduce you to my friend. Besides, let’s find a time to have a meal with our parents on both sides, and let them get to know each other formally. “

Ning Qingqing raised her eyes when she heard this, “Huh?”

Gu Youchen saw that she looked a little dazed again and couldn’t help but curve his lips, “Qingqing, we are married, of course, we have to formally meet the parents.”

“Oh— ” Ning Qingqing started to panic.

Will her mother be angry that she got married so suddenly?

Seeing her pale face, Gu Youchen lowered himself to meet her eyes, and said, “We just reached the result ahead of time, the process will proceed as it should. Qingqing, I am serious about marrying you, and I don’t have any plans to separate.”

Ning Qingqing’s breathing halted, and she met Gu Youchen’s gaze. She felt that there was something hidden in his eyes that she couldn’t discern.

She quickly turned her eyes away and said softly, “Okay, I understand now.”

Gu Youchen said again, “Shen Group also participated in the bidding for the project this time. We will need to compete with them.”

Ning Qingqing nodded, “En, but I have already resigned, so their affairs have nothing to do with me.”

But she was happy about Gu Youchen’s honesty.

“When are you heading out? Call my driver, he will take you there. Also, ask him to take you home when you’re done. I’m going to send you some important phone numbers now.”  After Gu Yuchen finished speaking, he turned on the phone and sent Ning Qingqing several numbers.

They included his other phone number, his special assistant’s, the driver’s, and his villa’s landline.

Ning Qingqing saved them all and added them to her contacts.

“Okay, I’ll be back as soon as possible.” Then Gu Youchen suddenly took a step forward and stretched out his arms.

By the time Ning Qingqing came to her senses, the man had already brought her into his arms.

The unfamiliar fresh scent surrounded her again, and her body couldn’t help but tense up.

The next second, the man’s voice sounded above her head, “Qingqing, I wish us a happy marriage! “

After that, he let her go.

Only then could Ning Qingqing breathe. She also lifted the corners of her lips for Gu Youchen, “Wishing us a happy marriage too!”

The man walked to the door, “Qingqing, I will contact you once I land.”

He had to use his private jet again this time. Fortunately, the flight control was not as strict recently. It was relatively easy to apply for a route, and would usually be approved within an hour.

Ning Qingqing sent him to the elevator entrance, and when she saw the elevator door open, she finally couldn’t help asking, “Mr. Gu, why did you want to marry me so suddenly? “

“Because I’m desperate to get married.” Gu Youchen answered and entered the elevator.

Ning Qingqing thought that just when she described herself as desperate for marriage, this man also described himself in the same way.

Obviously, he had a good figure, good looks, and good family background, so he didn’t have to worry about not being able to find a wife.

While she was still silently deliberating, the elevator door slowly closed. She saw that Gu Youchen was watching her meaningfully and said, “Qingqing, think carefully about how you can address me during these few days. “

The elevator door closed in front of Ning Qingqing, and Gu Youchen’s figure disappeared.

Ning Qingqing returned to the room with her mind in a trance, thinking about Gu Youchen’s last sentence.

How should she address him?

In fact, they were still very much like strangers, aside from the few times they met, all she knew about him was based on how Shen Zhiqian described him.

Anyhow, there were no positive comments.

Although Ning Qingqing had her own judgment, she also believed that, as Shen Zhiqian’s long-time competitor, it was impossible for this man to not be shrewd.

And she actually got a marriage certificate with this man in such a muddleheaded way!
