After the two of them went back to the bureau to check, they discovered that Lin Wu and Li Luyao’s status was still married. It seemed that the malicious ghost in the car only changed the marriage certificates. The records in the bureau were not changed.

Li Luyao heaved a sigh of relief. From the looks of things, the one who got married with Lin Wu was still her. They only needed to get new marriage certificates.

The staff had a strange look on his face as he looked at the two of them. Did they lose their marriage certificates despite just obtaining it?

They filled up the application form again and retook the photographs. By the time they were done, it was already in the afternoon.

“There’s no problem this time, right?”

After returning to the car, Li Luyao took it out and checked a few times. She kept verifying the marriage information and photo, afraid that there might be some changes again.

“We are already in the car, and there are also no problems with the marriage certification. Everything should be settled.” Lin Wu involuntarily smiled when he saw how nervous she was.

“That’s good.” Li Luyao heaved a sigh of relief. After that, she leaned against her seat lazily.

During these few days, she was always in a tense state, worried that she wouldn’t be able to save Lin Wu’s life and had to marry a ghost again. She was worried that Lin Wu wouldn’t be willing to marry her or that Lin Wu’s parents wouldn’t accept her. She was also afraid that the matchmaker might come and torment her…until now. This large rock in her chest could finally be placed down.

“I feel a little puzzled.”

Lin Wu took out the first marriage certifications, the one with the photograph showing the malicious ghost marrying him. He glanced at it and spoke in a bewildered manner, “It seems that this ghost wife of mine only needed the two marriage certification photos? Could it be that the photos have some meaning?”

“This…I’m not too sure either.” Li Luyao shook her head. She then continued, “However, since she wants to prove that there’s a marriage connection, she would definitely need a cert, right? It’s just like our marriage.”

“In that case, where did the ring on your hand come from?” Lin Wu involuntarily asked.

“I’m not too sure either. It’s reportedly the love token the matchmaker gave to me on your behalf. I’m not too sure of its origins.” Li Luyao frowned slightly. “Before I reincarnated, I heard you say before that this ring is just a symbol to living humans. But to ghosts, there seemed to be some other special effects and uses. But I’m not too clear on the specifics.”

“Other effects and uses?”

Lin Wu also couldn’t make sense of it. All of a sudden, a thought flashed in his heart: The malicious ghost in the car ‘Pei Jianing’; she didn’t have the silver ring on her finger, right?

He didn’t think too much and shook his head. He then turned and glanced at Li Luyao while showing a smile. ” The two of us are already married now. The matchmaker shouldn’t be haunting you any longer, right?”

“Mn.” Li Luyao nodded lightly. She touched the red string on her wrist and spoke softly, “As long as I didn’t betray the principle of our marriage, the matchmaker probably wouldn’t look for me within these three years.”

“Within these three years?” Lin Wu was somewhat puzzled. “Why three years?”

Li Luyao’s gaze showed a hint of sorrow. She shook her head slightly. “Because, before my reincarnation, I was the one who asked the matchmaker to pull strings to connect us, allowing me to enter a netherworld marriage with you. The price I have to pay is that I’ll accompany you while alive for three years, and will accompany you forever after my death. So, according to the oath, I can only live for three more years.”

Lin Wu’s expression involuntarily changed. “Only three years?”

“You should say that ‘there’s still’ three years. I’m already very satisfied.” Li Luyao sighed. “It’s still much better than me having to accompany a malicious ghost for three years and still be unable to break the marriage after my death, right? At the very least, I can live freely for three years. And you, my husband, is also a living human. I’m already content with this situation.”

“Can’t you change the oath?” Lin Wu frowned slightly.

Li Luyao fell silent for some time before shaking her head. ” The matchmaker has existed from ancient times until now. Since a malicious ghost like her could exist for so long, her obsession is definitely very terrifying. How can my oath to her be changed so easily?”

Lin Wu also fell silent. He then stretched out his hand and patted the back of her hand as he consoled. “If I can converse with the matchmaker, I will do my best to remove that condition for you.”

“Thank you…” Li Luyao nodded lightly.

However, it was evident from her gaze that she didn’t harbor too much hope in this.

“Oh ya, it’s also impossible for the matchmaker to follow you all the time, right?” Lin Wu changed the topic and continued, “How would she know if you broke the principle of marriage? For example, what if you have an affair outside.”

Li Luyao lifted her right hand after hearing this. She looked at her wrist and spoke softly, “You don’t understand how terrifying the obsession of a malicious ghost can be. It’s also very wondrous. The matchmaker existed for such a long time, and she caused so many couples to not dare to betray the principle of marriage. It’s all because of her red string.”

“Red string?’

Lin Wu glanced at her wrist, which was as fair as snow. Her bones and flesh were well proportioned, but there was nothing there. There was no red string.

“It’s normal that you cannot see it. This red string is something formed from the matchmaker’s obsession.” Li Luyao shook her head slightly. “As long as I made any action that betrays the principle of marriage, this red string would punish me. If the matter is too serious, the matchmaker might even personally rush over.”

“Is the matchmaker so terrifying?”

Lin Wu couldn’t help but be silently startled. He couldn’t control himself and asked again, “In that case, if I fall in love with other girls, will the matchmaker punish me too?”

“This…I don’t think so.” Li Luyao spoke after thinking for a while, “The matchmaker’s views are more traditional, and she wouldn’t mind if a guy has three wives and four concubines. It’s fine as long as you wed them all officially.”

“I’ve already married you.” Lin Wu spread his hands wide and sighed with regret. “Seems like there’s no more chance for me.”

Li Luyao rolled her eyes and snorted. “You can change your nationality. For example, places like Paraguay allows a husband to marry many wives.”

Lin Wu then hurriedly spoke grimly, “How can I do this? I’m a youth that loves China, I was born a chinese man and would die as a chinese ghost. It’s enough for me now that I’ve officially wed you.”

Li Luyao’s lips twitched, but she could still be considered satisfied with his reply. Her favorable impression of him rose to 60 points.

(Mn, when he gets to 70 points, I will allow him to have some minor benefits befitting that of a boyfriend.)

“But…”

However, Lin Wu touched his chin and spoke again, “Since the matchmaker’s views are more traditional, she should be okay with ancient customs, correct? One man, one wife, and many concubines. For the officially wedded one, you alone are enough. The others will all be concubines, which means that they would be mistresses. There should be no problem, right?”

“…”

Li Luyao’s face turned black. The favorable impression she had of him instantly vanished as the points turned negative!

“Don’t worry, no matter how many wives the matchmaker forces onto me, you will always be number one. I won’t let you down.” Lin Wu turned and stared at Li Luyao with a sincere look. He then conveniently placed his hand on her thigh and patted it lightly.

Li Luyao rolled her eyes. “If you didn’t try to take advantage of me, your words would sound much more sincere.”

“Cough.” Lin Wu coughed but helplessly sighed again. “Sigh, I’m also helpless. I also only want to marry you alone. We can only blame this matter on the matchmaker.”

“Hehe…”

Li Luyao’s lips twitched. If it wasn’t for the fact that she saw a hint of laughter in his gaze, she would have believed it was real.

“Oh, by the way, since this is a big joyous day for us, shall we consummate our marriage tonight?” Lin Wu had a face filled with anticipation as he asked.

(You can continue dreaming…) Li Luyao rolled her eyes. She then nodded. “Sure, why don’t you stay at my apartment tonight?”

“Really?” Lin Wu was astonished. He only mentioned this casually.

“Naturally.” Li Luyao smiled and nodded. “Each of us will sleep in a separate room respectively.”

“…”
