Today, Xu Kai Lawyer finally delivered Lin Ran's newly opened household registration booklet.
"Mr. Lin, Lin Tianba has no intention of handing over the dividends yet. I've already arranged to prepare a lawsuit! But before we sue, I need to confirm with you, since you two are, after all, biological father and son."
Lin Ran let out a derisive chuckle.
"Aside from contributing a single sperm, he hasn't fulfilled any responsibilities. Go ahead! Let that old man face reality, and ideally, send him to prison."
With Lin Ran's approval, Xu Kai took his leave.
The first thing Lin Ran thought of upon receiving the household registration booklet was to head to the civil affairs bureau with Luo Yao to get married. He was startled by his own thoughts.
Although in his previous life, Luo Yao had donned a wedding dress for him.
But Lin Ran sometimes struggled to discern whether Luo Yao wanted to possess him or if it was just some other kind of obsession.
He also wasn't sure if Luo Yao wanted to make their relationship public.
Entering the study, Luo Yao was staring blankly at her computer. Lin Ran moved cautiously, making sure not to make a sound.
He quietly approached Luo Yao, leaned in, and kissed her on the cheek.
"Good morning kiss!"
Startled by Lin Ran's sudden appearance, Luo Yao felt her heartbeat quicken, and her lips curled into a beautiful smile.
Turning around, she gave Lin Ran a passionate French kiss.
"Now that's a good morning kiss!"
Lin Ran scratched his head, thinking to himself, *My wife's still the bold one.*
Luo Yao: "How did it feel?"
Lin Ran: "It felt great! Even better if it lasted longer!"
Luo Yao: "I meant, how's your body?"
Lin Ran: "A bit dizzy in the head, but I'm far from weak. We could go another three hundred rounds!"
Luo Yao narrowed her eyes: "Didn't you say you wanted to be more temperate?"
Lin Ran patted his chest: "Well, I did rest all night, didn't I? Also, I wanted to discuss something with you, something…"
As he spoke, he glanced at Luo Yao's computer.
What he saw was a group of people with their jaws dropped, staring in shock…
Lin Ran froze, and the words "Let's go get our marriage certificate" stuck in his throat.
He had only wanted to see what Luo Yao was doing, but he never expected her to be in a video conference.
Luo Yao, the president, was holding a meeting at home!
Luo Yao showed no signs of embarrassment, simply gently closing her laptop.
As the boss's video feed in the conference room went dark, the executives couldn't hold back.
"Did I see that right? Who’s that young man? Our boss actually likes men? I thought she was repulsed by men!"
"That guy is really handsome though. He and the CEO look so perfect together!"
"Maybe he's the CEO's brother."
"Would your brother play like that? In that case, I can only say, awesome!"
"Or maybe he's the CEO’s kept boy toy. But I think it's the first time I've seen the CEO smile. She actually smiles?"
"Why not keep me? I can be a pet too!"
"You’re too ugly!"
"Anyway, it’s clear the CEO likes men. Sometimes I’m really afraid she’ll make a move on me. My sexual orientation is straight, although I admit the CEO is very much my type… cough… but I like men, not my own kind."
"Even if the CEO likes women, she wouldn’t like you. You don’t have what it takes to be a kept boy toy!"
"I’m curious, when the CEO’s with that handsome guy, who’s on top?"
"It’s obviously the CEO! What kind of question is that?"
"This is good. Hopefully, the man can soften the CEO’s heart a bit, making her a little gentler. Otherwise, every time I see her, it feels like I’m going to the guillotine. She’s terrifying!"
Liu Meng: "Are you guys serious? Talking about the boss during a meeting? If you don’t want to live, don’t drag me down. I’m logging off!"
Everyone: "???" "Don’t you want to finish the meeting??"
"Liu Meng’s already gone. Let’s log off too! If the sky falls, Liu Meng will take the blame!"
…
Back at the villa, Lin Ran was a bit bewildered, not out of embarrassment, but because he felt shy and worried about causing trouble for Luo Yao.
Luo Yao: "What did you want to discuss with me?"
Lin Ran, no longer having the courage to bring up the marriage certificate, stammered.
"Um… didn't I cause you trouble, did I?"
Luo Yao, finding Lin Ran's awkwardness amusing, shook her head.
"No."
"You agreed to what?"
Could it be that she knew he got the household registration booklet and wanted to get married with her? That was too magical!
"I agreed to let you freely enter and leave the manor, but on the condition that you don’t run away."
"And you must report to me at all times, come home every night to accompany me, and definitely not go see Liu Ruxue."
"If you don’t follow these rules, I’ll capture Liu Ruxue and your family and torture them!"
Lin Ran: ??? "Is that even possible?"
"Actually, I wasn’t talking about that! I wanted to say… I just got my household registration booklet, and I wanted to get our marriage certificate with you!"
Luo Yao stared at Lin Ran intently, remaining silent for a long time.
To Luo Yao, whether or not they got married didn’t matter. What truly mattered was whether Lin Ran was by her side.
As long as he stayed with her, remaining unmarried for life was fine.
But she understood the significance of marriage for ordinary people.
Was Lin Ran considering going public with their relationship? Or was he trying to reassure her, only to plan an escape later?
If they got married, would Lin Ran acknowledge her as his wife in public?
Various thoughts raced through Luo Yao’s mind.
Seeing that Luo Yao didn’t speak for a long time, Lin Ran felt a bit disappointed.
She… seemed reluctant, or perhaps didn’t want their relationship to go public.
"If you’re not willing, that’s fine. I wasn’t implying anything…"
Before he could finish, Lin Ran was suddenly grabbed by the collar and dragged outside by Luo Yao. Feeling the strength in Luo Yao’s hands, Lin Ran was dumbfounded.
Wait, Luo Yao, with her seemingly delicate frame, where did such power come from?
In his previous life, to resist Luo Yao, Lin Ran had trained a lot, but in the end, he still couldn’t escape her grasp. He thought it was because Luo Yao’s subordinates were too strong.
Now it seemed that Luo Yao herself was extraordinarily powerful.
Once outside, Luo Yao threw Lin Ran into the car and then got in herself. Without a word, she drove straight to their destination.
Luo Yao: "I’m not going with you to get a marriage certificate…"
When they next appeared, both of them held a certificate in their hands.
Luo Yao: "I’m just fulfilling a small request of yours."
And just like that, it was done?
It felt a bit like a dream.
"Luo Yao! I… owe you a wedding and a ring!"
Luo Yao: "I don’t want your ring. I just want you for myself… You can choose a ring you like."
Lin Ran: "When I make money, I’ll definitely buy you the most beautiful ring!"
Luo Yao shook her head: "Everything of mine is yours. The black card I gave you has a 100 billion yuan limit. If that’s not enough, just tell me, and I’ll give you all my money. You can buy whatever ring you want!"
Lin Ran: ???
How much is the limit?
