She turned her head and, though puzzled, still spoke up, "Of course I hate."
"Be my wife, and I'll help you take revenge."
Gu Qiangwei was taken aback.
What did that mean?
Wasn't that previous speech just deliberately said for her father's benefit? What was the meaning of this now?
"Are you being serious or are you just pretending?" she asked, staring intently at him.
He turned his head, his black eyes dark as the starry night, yet unfathomable.
"Pretend."
Gu Qiangwei finally breathed a sigh of relief as if unburdened, having thought he really wanted her to be his wife.
If that were true, it would be far too abrupt.
"Let's go get our marriage certificate now!"
Before her thoughts had settled, Qin Sijue suddenly spoke again, causing Gu Qiangwei to startle once more, turning to look at him uncomprehendingly.
"Get what certificate?"
"Marriage certificate!"
"But you said it was pretend, right?"
"A fake marriage, but we'll really get the certificate."
"..."
