The Wife.

Hao Ren was still having a hard time believing that he got married and his system was finally triggered. As they were coming out of the marriage registration office, he tried to call for the system but he only found a holographic window flashing before him, which said, 'The system is updating, please wait patiently.' 

Only then did he recall that the system will come online after two hours. His eyes fell on the slender figure walking ahead of him, and he mustered up his courage as he asked, "Excuse me, may I ask you a few questions?" 

The lady did not stop or turn around to look at him but replied, "Let's talk in the car, it is too hot out here." 

Hao Ren nodded as they moved to the parking section outside the government office. There were only a few cars, and then Hao Ren spotted a luxury sedan parked in the side and sighed as he commented, "I wonder who would drive this out here, such a bad choice." 

The lady raised her brow and asked, "Why do you say that?" 

Hao Ren had caught up with her and said, "This model is five years old, it had a big flaw, the front end is slightly too high and it long too, blocking the proper view on the road. In such a tight space, how can it be easy for the driver to park and move out? Is that not a bad choice? If you can own this, then you can also own something else." 

The lady stopped before the car and asked provocatively, "Which vehicle can even compete with The Chariot?" 

Hao Ren did not even think before he replied, "Crown Motors, Majesta." 

His voice was filled with yearning, and the lady was surprised. She regained her composure and took out a small key from her clutch bag. The luxury car before them beeped twice, and Hao Ren stood stunned in his spot. 

The lady raised her brow and a subtle smirk appeared on her face. However, the curl vanished as soon as it appeared. She said, "Get in, Please." 

Hao Ren woke up from his daze, and sat in the co-passenger seat. He was somewhat uneasy, because this was his first time in a luxury car. The lady watched this and said, "You must have a lot of questions, right? Let me tell you the answer to few. My name is Han Lingshi, you can call me, Miss Han, or my full name." 

Hao Ren nodded and Han Lingshi continued, "I am twenty eight years old. I work in Empress International." 

This surprised the young man for a bit but he regained his composure, and said, "My name is Hao Ren, I just turned twenty two years old last month, and have finished my graduation in finance and marketing from Skylark City University. I have just moved to this city and am looking for a job." 

Han Lingshi nodded and Hao Ren asked, "Miss Han, may I ask why you decided to marry me?" 

The lady replied, "I have been pursued by a lot of people, but they all only come to me because of the money I make. I do not wish to marry for such petty gains. However, do not think that I intend to spend my entire life with you." 

Hao Ren smiled and replied while gazing out of the window, "I am well aware of the reality, Miss Han. I was waiting for you to say this. I know that according to the law we cannot file a divorce till next year unless one of us can prove breach of trust in the relationship. However, I would suggest that I sign a prenup agreement with you." 

Han Lingshi raised her brow and asked, "You do not want to take away a chunk of my money or any compensation when you get out of the relationship?" 

Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "I do not wish to seek any material gains at all. However, if possible, I would like you to pretend to be my girlfriend when the time comes." 

Han Lingshi frowned, she thought he wanted to show off before his friends or something but Hao Ren continued talking, "My parents only had me when they were in their forties. Now, they are both retired and old. Sometimes they pressurize me to look for a girl, and I am not that lucky, so if you do not find it too imposing, maybe then you can act like my girlfriend." 

Han Lingshi has always been a good judge of people and she could tell that this guy had not yet lied to her. However, she was not a fool to trust the words of a stranger. She did not reply as the car drove on the roads. After a few minutes, she asked, "Where do you live? I will give you a lift." 

Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "I will get down here only, you can see to your work." 

Han Lingshi did not have any problem, and asked, "Come to the Empress International office after lunch time. We will sign the prenup agreement." 

Hao Ren nodded and after the car stopped, he thanked Han Lingshi before getting out of the vehicle. He wait for a few minutes before Han Lingshi left. Then he checked the time on his mobile and decided to grab a bite. 

If he learned anything in his life, that was the art of staying calm. However, as he looked for a stall, he could not help but think of Han Lingshi's face and remark, "Well, part of the situation is indeed a dream. How can my wife be as beautiful as a fairy?" 

Then with a silly smile on his face the young man moved through the streets heading to the food stall. 

...

Han Lingshi parked the car at the front door of the Empress International and a guard quickly came up to open the door for her. The lady did not say anything and walked inside. The people saw her and bowed to her slightly while she made her way to the elevator. 

Han Lingshi got to the top floor quickly and as she walked out, a pair of young ladies who were already waiting for her outside. The one on the left said, "President, you are scheduled to meet Mr. Dinghum after lunch." 

Han Lingshi shook her head and replied, "Push it back to the evening, and clear my schedule after lunch." 

The lady was surprised but she nodded and quickly rushed to her station to work. Han Lingshi looked at another young woman beside her and said, "Mio, write a prenup agreement and state me as party A, while set the name as party B. Focus on protection of my assets, but do not harm Party B." 

Mio was her personal assistant and at this moment, she was shocked to the core of her soul. The president of the Empress International company, a person worth billions is asking her to write a prenup, what the fuck was going on? 

However, she still nodded, and Han Lingshi entered her cabin and began to handle her work. Suddenly she recalled something and said, "Inform the front desk. If someone named Hao Ren comes over, they are to inform me right away." 

Mio nodded and left the cabin. She fell in her chair and mumbled, "Who the fuck is Hao Ren?"
