Chapter 87: Just Pretending to be Affectionate
Gu Qili, although she knew the name Mu Shuoqian, was seeing him in person for the first time. She heard that he was a loner and hardly socialized, rarely appearing in public events.
When filling in the age section of the form, she earnestly wrote down his date of birth; he was 30 years old this year, nine years older than her. In her heart, she silently called him "Uncle".
After filling out all the forms, she handed them over for him to sign. Without even looking, he carelessly scrawled his name as if what she had filled in was not important at all.
Before taking the photo, Gu Qili specially washed her face, her already damp hair mischievously sticking to her forehead. She tightened her ponytail a bit more, making herself look a bit less disheveled.
Fortunately, the photo was only of the upper body; her mud-stained pants were not visible. Gu Qili inwardly gave a wry smile – probably even those who came here to divorce were not as bedraggled as she was.
After completing all the procedures, the registrar gave each of them a little red book. Gu Qili opened hers and touched the somewhat hot marriage certificate, as if still in a daze.
She couldn’t believe that she had married herself off so hastily, and to a stranger at that. Apart from his surname and his name, she knew nothing about him.
However, none of this was important to her. What she wanted was the Gu Family Vineyard, the obsession that her father couldn’t let go of even on his deathbed.
When she left the Civil Affairs Bureau, the bright sun had already come out. The piercing light made Gu Qili feel a moment of disorientation. She had entered the place single; now, stepping out, she had become a married woman.
A black Maybach 62 was parked at the entrance, with his chauffeur standing outside, a young and robust man with short hair and handsome features, holding a bag. Seeing her approach, he stepped forward a few steps to hand it to her, his attitude very gentle.
That was the first time she saw Yuan Yi.
