Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

Half an hour later, not a minute more or less, Su Yu was really punctual.

When the time came, he went to the bathroom to take a shower, his steps unsteady. Han Guoguo was afraid he would fall, so she crossed her arms and leaned against the door, ready to rescue him at any moment.

Su Yu was indeed sober after taking a shower, which may have been due to the hangover medicine Guo Guo gave him.

When he came out, he was wearing a conventional two-piece pajama set, and a white towel was constantly wiping his wet hair. There were water stains on his neck that hadn't been wiped clean, and they were running down his neck and into his pajamas.

His refined demeanor exuded masculine charm, captivating Han Guoguo for a long while, her thoughts drifting away.

An awkward cough. "Cough, cough, are you feeling any better?"

Once he regained his senses, Su Yu apologized, "I'm sorry, Guoguo, this won't happen again."

Su Yu promised that this would be the last time.

Han Guoguo laughed at his silliness and his seriousness, always putting rules first. She wanted to slap him on the back of the head as he stood up straight. She grabbed the towel from his hand and led him to the sofa. "Su Yu, I've found that you're really cute when you're serious."

Su Yu didn't understand what Han Guoguo was saying, but Han Guoguo still led him to sit on the sofa. Han Guoguo went around to the back of the sofa to help him dry his hair, but Su Yu stopped her, saying, "I can do it myself."

Han Guoguo slapped his hand away slightly angrily, making a "smack" sound. "I won't let you feel like you're taking advantage of me. Your hair is short and mine is long. It's a matter of reciprocity. You'll help me blow-dry my hair later."

Su Yu: "No need for reciprocity, I can help you with that too."

He was happy to oblige. Su Yu was fully awake after taking a shower, though his head still throbbed slightly.

Han Guoguo ruffled his hair haphazardly with both hands. Silly, there's a reason why Su Yu is single. Without me, he'd be single forever.

Su Yu's hair was short and dried in just a few minutes. Han Guoguo scratched the ends of her hair and said, "Okay, it's dry. I'm going to take a shower. You can rest for a while."

"Okay." He felt that Guoguo was a little different at night, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. He stared at her back and fell into deep thought.

Su Yu didn't rest; he waited for Guo Guo to come out so he could blow-dry her hair. After about 20 minutes, Han Guo Guo came out with a white towel wrapped around her head and long ears on either side of her head.

It was so cute; it was clearly not a hotel towel, but something they brought themselves. Su Yu was so captivated by it that he forgot to speak for a moment.

Han Guoguo reached out and tugged at her ear. "Isn't it cute?" She thought it was incredibly adorable when she bought it online.

Coming to his senses, Su Yu smiled, "It looks good. Come here, let me dry your hair."

"Alright, let me enjoy your hair-drying skills. Have you ever dried Xiaoxue's hair before?" As she spoke, Han Guoguo had already sat down on the sofa.

She sat cross-legged on the sofa, facing away from Su Yu, while Su Yu stood up and slowly picked up the hairdryer.

"I've blow-dried her hair before, but I haven't blow-dried it for her since she turned 18. Xiaoxue is a bit lazy, and her hair is long, so she always stops when it's half-dry."

Su Yu spoke slowly and deliberately, while Han Guoguo, who was sitting with her back to him, was lost in thought again. She was thinking about how this gentle man had helped his sister blow-dry her hair and broken his leg for her, yet he had never uttered a single complaint or even mentioned it.

Deep-seated male chauvinism leads him to always take responsibility for things, feeling that this is what he should do and that is what he should do. But there are no such things as "should" in this world, and no one owes anyone anything.

Someone should blow-dry his hair and take care of him. Let her do this difficult task. It's not bad to have a man blow-dry your hair.

After Su Yu finished telling Su Xue's story, he stopped talking and instead carefully blew on Han Guoguo's collarbone-length hair. "Guoguo, your hair is getting a bit long."

Han Guoguo answered incorrectly, saying, "Su Yu."

"Hmm, what's wrong? Is it too hot?" She turned the hairdryer around and tested the temperature against her palm.

It's not hot.

Just as Su Yu turned down the hairdryer setting, Han Guoguo turned around and said seriously, "Su Yu, let's get our marriage certificate tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu forgot to turn off the hair dryer, keeping it pointed at his palm until he felt it was too hot before snapping back to reality and turning it off.

He still didn't realize what was happening.

Su Yu: "............." Every cell in his body stiffened. He felt like he was hallucinating. What did the young lady say?

Looking incredulously into Han Guoguo's smiling eyes, he tried to confirm, "Guoguo, what did you say?"

Without the hum of the hairdryer, the quiet room was so still you could hear a pin drop.

Han Guoguo looked at the bewildered Su Yu. She was certain Su Yu had heard her, otherwise he wouldn't have this expression. He just didn't believe she had heard it. She smiled again and answered, word by word, "I... said... we... will... go... to... get our marriage certificate tomorrow, did you hear me? If you didn't hear me, I'll say it again until you've absorbed every single word."

If that doesn't work, stick each word on his forehead.

At this moment, Su Yu didn't know whether to laugh or be confused. He licked his slightly dry lips, pushed up his glasses, and the complex emotions in his eyes behind the lenses were hard to hide. "Guoguo, can you tell me the reason?"

Han Guoguo: Are you stupid? Shouldn't we be saying yes at this time?

Calm down, calm down. Su Yu wouldn't be a calm man if he didn't ask. He took a deep breath and said, "It's just that I want to marry you. Are you willing?"

After a long pause, Su Yu still couldn't understand why Guo Guo would suddenly say that. He was overjoyed, but he wanted to find out the reason before marrying Guo Guo. "I do. Can I ask why?"

Seeing Su Yu's determined look, Han Guoguo knew that he wouldn't obediently go and get the marriage certificate unless she told him the truth. She sighed inwardly, "Sigh, keep drying my hair. While you're drying it, think about whether there's anything you're hiding from me, like doing something like being a Good Samaritan."

Han Guoguo turned around and let Su Yu continue drying his hair. Su Yu was overjoyed, but his hands were numb as he picked up the hairdryer and tried to recall Guoguo's question. He racked his brains, almost rewinding the timeline, but still couldn't figure out the reason.

Even after his hair was dry, Su Yu still hadn't expected this. He frowned, never before feeling so troubled. "Guoguo, could you give me a hint?"

This situation is like a teacher asking, "Are you wrong?" I am wrong. What did you do wrong? I am wrong, but I don't know what I did wrong.

The more Han Guoguo looked at Su Yu, the cuter he seemed, especially when he was serious. It always made her think of Tang Sanzang chanting Buddhist scriptures. While others see beauty in the eye of the beholder, she saw only cuteness in her eyes. "Were you injured when you saved me abroad?"

With such a blatant hint, Su Yu would be truly stupid if he still couldn't figure it out. He immediately connected the dots and said, "What Qin Kai said, don't listen to his nonsense, it's just a minor injury."

Su Yu was afraid that Han Guoguo would worry about Qin Kai's exaggerated narration.

Han Guoguo tucked one side of her hair behind her ear, the diamond earring dazzling Su Yu's glasses. She reached out and pinched Su Yu's cheek, asking in a tone of exasperation, "Su Yu, what are our principles for getting along?"

"To be honest, you're obviously not being honest right now; you're lying to me," Han Guoguo said before Su Yu could answer.

Su Yu immediately realized his mistake. "I admit my mistake. I'm sorry. I was indeed injured that time. I fractured my leg bone, but I'm fully healed now and there are no lasting effects."

Han Guoguo: Why didn't we just do this earlier? Why go through all this trouble?

Wait, wasn't it supposed to be a broken leg? How come it's a fracture now?

Never mind, Su Yu must have downplayed it to avoid worrying her. Whether it's a fracture or a broken leg, Su Yu is a good man in her heart.

Afraid that Han Guoguo would be angry, Su Yu stood up, then sat down next to her again, and explained once more, "Guoguo, I didn't lie to you on purpose. I just felt that the matter was over, and my leg was fine. I didn't want you to worry."

I didn't want her to feel guilty. Saving someone was just an instinctive reaction. At that time, I didn't even know that the person I saved was Guoguo.

It was just a coincidence.

Han Guoguo rubbed Su Yu's hand, her eyes resolute, "Did you bring your household registration booklet?"

"I brought it. Are we going to get the marriage certificate abroad?" Su Yu was now certain that Guo Guo's desire to get the marriage certificate was genuine.

The marriage laws in this country are different from those in the capital. Anyone who gets a marriage certificate here is not allowed to divorce; they are only allowed to get married, not divorced.

"Yeah, that's right. You don't want to, or you're scared? If you think it's too fast, then forget it."

Seeing that Guoguo had changed her mind and her tone was no longer as firm as before, Su Yu was afraid that Han Guoguo would change her mind, so he hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "As long as you are not happy, that's fine. Guoguo, I said that you are the priority. Don't make impulsive decisions just because I saved you."

"Are you stupid? If I didn't really want to marry you, if I didn't like you, why would I get a marriage certificate with you? Why would I, this young lady, be tied to you for the rest of my life?" I'm so angry. You blockhead, you're like a reincarnation of Tang Sanzang.

Why is she so clueless when it comes to relationships? She's already agreed to his proposal, but she still wants him to think about it some more.

If Xixi were to tell Han Yue today that they were going to get their marriage certificate, she could guarantee that Han Yue would get the Civil Affairs Bureau to work overtime overnight to process it.

Su Yu also asked her to think about it. The key question is who is more anxious. In terms of age, it is Young Master Su who is more anxious, okay? Aunt Su is so anxious.

"Should we call your parents first?" It wouldn't be proper to take Guoguo to get the marriage certificate without telling them in advance.

Han Guoguo sighed, "What if I said I planned to act first and ask questions later? Would you come along?"

At this moment, Han Guoguo looked like she was about to do something naughty, and her expression seemed to say, "Want to join me?"

"Alright." Since the young lady wants to do it this way, then so be it. At worst, he can go to the Han family to apologize later. The first one who won't let him off the hook will be Han Yue.

We've already agreed on getting our marriage certificate tomorrow, so the next thing to figure out is where we'll sleep. There's only one bed in the room.

Han Guoguo wasn't awkward. They had already discussed getting their marriage certificate a minute ago, which meant their relationship had taken a step further. They should now be called fiancée and fiancé, just like her brother and Xixi, who also slept together.

Su Yu, on the other hand, was a little awkward. "Guoguo..." He wanted to say that he would sleep on the sofa and then sleep together again after they got their marriage certificate tomorrow.

Before she could finish speaking, Han Guoguo led her to the bedside. "Don't hesitate. Let's try sleeping together tonight. Aren't there many couples who cohabitate before marriage? Let's start by trying to sleep together and see if we can sleep well tonight and what the quality of our sleep is like."

Su Yu: "................"

"What if you don't sleep well?" Su Yu asked.

"If you're not feeling well, then find the problem. Do you think I'm going to kick you out of bed? I sleep very well; I fall asleep almost instantly, and my sleeping position is fine. Do you snore or grind your teeth?"

Su Yu felt that the two of them were really like a group trying out different hotels, asking and answering questions in a very strange way. "Nothing."

Han Guoguo had already taken off her shoes and was sitting on the bed. She patted the spot next to her, gesturing for Su Yu to get into bed and sleep. "That's fine then. Neither of us has any bad sleeping habits. Don't be afraid. I won't eat you. I won't do anything to you unless you allow it."

Su Yu: Did you pick up the wrong script?
