Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night

In the Federal Empire, any woman who had reached twenty years of age must get married, or be randomly assigned a husband by the System. Thus, on her wedding day, the eve of her 20th birthday, Valerie Sullivan waited anxiously for her betrothed, Isaac Holt, to show up—only to find out that he was not coming after all! Trapped in this desperate situation, she grabbed the first handsome stranger she bumped into and got him to be her stand-in groom. It did not hurt that this mysterious Jonny was just her type—young and innocent-looking, with furry ears and a large fluffy tail. So, what if he seemed a little lost and confused? The wedding went on as planned, and Valerie was saved from public humiliation but only for the moment. After all, her marriage to Isaac was supposed to solidify the business partnership between the Sullivans and the Holts. In addition, her sister, Madeline, did not seem too happy that things turned out well for Valerie. Worst of all, Valerie found out that Jonny was an important, influential figure—Jonathan Gunn—the first commander of the Empire and uncle to the current monarch! Who had Valerie actually married—the sensitive, adorable Jonny, or the formidable, impassive Jonathan? Would this last-second pairing end in true love or divorce?

Chapter 129: Is This What People Do?

Mu Lei was speaking sternly to the students.

"The situation has changed this year, freshmen also need to participate in the Mecha competition. There are so many of you in this class, and only two have signed up?"

A student plucked up the courage to say, "Director Mu, we are from the Command Department."

Mu Lei sneered, "When it comes to actual combat, if all your companions have fallen, you'll have to charge forward too! If anyone is afraid of danger, they can roll out of the military academy right now!"

The student immediately didn't dare to make another sound.

Su Wan: "..."

Director Mu is really fierce.

Truly living up to his reputation.

If Director Mu were to marry her mother in the future and remained this fierce... Su Wan suddenly felt very anxious!

Mu Lei turned his head and saw Su Wan standing at the door.

"You two, come in."

"Yes."

Su Wan and Lin Yu entered one after the other, introduced themselves, and then found seats at the back of the classroom.
