Translator: 549690339

Xia Yangyang was completely stunned.

Her mind went blank for a moment, but then everything became clear.

Until now, she had always been confused about why someone like Gu Qichen would marry her.

They didn’t know each other before and only got entangled because of a drunken night.

The next morning, when Xia Yangyang regained her consciousness, she was in great panic.

However, Gu Qichen asked calmly, “Are you of legal age?”

She nodded.

Gu Qichen said, “Bring your household register and ID to meet me at the office of the Civil Affairs Bureau this afternoon.”

And just like that, in a daze, Xia Yangyang hand in hand received their marriage certificate with Gu Qichen.

At that time, Xia Yangyang was disheartened about love because of Lu Haotian and Gong Xue’er, and she had lost her virginity in such an inexplicable way.

She felt that it didn’t matter who she got married to. She didn’t expect the man she received the certificate with to be of such high status.

Xia Yangyang was puzzled as to why Gu Qichen, even after a “one night stand”, out of a thousand possible solutions, chose to marry her.

Now, Xia Yangyang understood. Gu Qichen was just like her.

Disappointed in love, he had given up on marriage.

While someone continued talking, Xia Yangyang couldn’t hear a single word.

She of wooden expression turned around and left the hospital.

Xia Yangyang’s heart ached. The truth was, even if Gu Qichen had married her for such reasons, she couldn’t blame him.

Because she too agreed out of despair, she had no right to blame others.

What upset Xia Yangyang was that her current thoughts were completely different from before.

She… she seemed to have fallen for Gu Qichen…

It was pitch dark out.

Xia Yangyang continued walking mechanically.

Then suddenly, she heard the screaming honk of a horn.

When she turned her head, she saw two glaring beams so intense she couldn’t open her eyes.

Xia Yangyang had no time to react and just found her arm being hauled away by a strong force.

Xia Yangyang fell into someone’s arms.

Then, all she could hear were the roaring sounds of traffic and some driver’s cursing as he sped past.

“Are you okay?” asked a deep male voice that seemed to float down from the top of her head.

Xia Yangyang looked up and saw it was Shen Shichuan.

It took her a moment to notice that Shen Shichuan had one hand tightly gripping her wrist and the other around her waist.

The two of them close together.

Xia Yangyang could even hear his heart beating.

Xia Yangyang quickly pulled away and took a step back, “I’m alright.”

Shen Shichuan said, “Miss Xia, you seemed very distracted. It was very dangerous.”

Xia Yangyang took a look around and realized that she had walked into the middle of the road.

Just now she was lost in thought, crossing the road without paying attention. If it had not been for Shen Shichuan’s timely appearance, she might have been in grave danger.

Xia Yangyang was suddenly shocked and scared.

Xia Yangyang said, “Thank you.”

Shen Shichuan smiled lightly, “How about Miss Xia treating me to a meal as I am quite hungry.”

Taken aback, Xia Yangyang nodded in agreement.

They went to a nearby Hunan restaurant.

After sitting down, Xia Yangyang was still shaken, “Thank you for saving me, Mr. Shen. But how did you happen to be there?”

Shen Shichuan replied, “I had just left the hospital when I met Miss Xia. I noticed you seemed rather distraught, bumping into two people within a short walk. I didn’t feel secure leaving you alone, so I decided to follow you. Therefore, the incident wasn’t really a coincidence.”

She had bumped into two people while walking? And she had no idea….
