Super Sweet! My Flash Marriage Husband Turns Out to Be My Boss

In the lawyer's office.The prenuptial agreement in Xu Zhen's hands had two pages, and she carefully read every word.Marriage is a big deal, and it cannot be taken lightly.The terms of the agreement didn't have anything unfavorable for her. She came from an ordinary family, with only a few thousand yuan in savings, so there wasn't much anyone could scheme for.This agreement mostly protected the man's interests.After finishing the last word, she quickly reviewed the content in her mind and then said, "I accept all the terms.""Since there are no issues, please sign, Miss Xu." The lawyer pushed the pen toward her.Xu Zhen picked up the pen, but before signing, she couldn't help but glance at Shen Lingfeng.He was sitting on the sofa, leisurely sipping coffee, his deep and handsome features partly obscured by the cup.This was her first time meeting him today, and she didn't expect him to be so handsome—sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, tall and straight posture. Unfortunately, his face held no expression, giving off a naturally cold vibe.With just one glance, she turned her attention back to the agreement, signing her name without hesitation.His name had already been signed. The strokes were firm and flowing.The lawyer confirmed her signature and then looked at Shen Lingfeng, "Mr. Shen, everything is in order."Shen Lingfeng silently put down his cup, grabbed his suit jacket from the armrest of the sofa, and stood up,"Let's go."Xu Zhen stood up. "Where to?""Tianhua Garden."As he said this, Shen Lingfeng glanced at her indifferently with his dark eyes before walking toward the door.Xu Zhen was still confused. Just as she was about to ask again, the lawyer noticed her confusion and reminded her,"Mr. Shen has a house in Tianhua Garden."Xu Zhen suddenly understood. She had been a bit muddled, having just registered for marriage in the morning, and now signing the prenuptial agreement. Of course, the next step was to move into his house.Their marriage was actually the wish of Old Master Shen.The reason was that Xu Zhen's half-brother had racked up more than five million yuan in illegal debts. When her family had nowhere to turn, her mother had been crying nonstop, so she had to ask Old Master Shen for help. Old Master Shen agreed to assist, but on the condition that she marry his eldest grandson.Old Master Shen had met her grandfather during his youth in the countryside, and the two had become sworn brothers.After Old Master Shen moved back to the city, they saw each other less, but they exchanged gifts during holidays and kept in touch.Xu Zhen went to college in Y City, and Old Master Shen took care of her, occasionally having meals together, and they had become familiar with each other.But she had never met Shen Lingfeng, as he had worked in the Shen family's overseas business division before.He had only returned to the country half a year ago to take over the Shen family's affairs.Shen Lingfeng, now in his thirties, was urged by Old Master Shen to marry. He thought Xu Zhen was the most suitable candidate.Old Master Shen had paid off such a large debt for her family, and she was very grateful. She had no hesitation in agreeing to his request. Additionally, her relationship with her stepfather and brother wasn't great, so this marriage was a chance to leave home.The prenuptial agreement was proposed by Shen Lingfeng, and Xu Zhen felt it was perfectly reasonable, without any objections.The car was quiet.Shen Lingfeng stared out of the window, while Xu Zhen noticed his cold demeanor and decided not to engage with him, turning to look out the other window.But she could smell a faint woody scent, like fir, which matched his cold and aloof aura.When they arrived at Tianhua Garden, he silently got out of the car and instructed the driver to move her luggage to the elevator.Xu Zhen didn't mind his attitude; after all, they had been forced into this marriage by their elders, and no one would be happy about it.She had seen the state of marriage around her, including her mother's, and had long stopped holding unrealistic fantasies about marriage.At the civil registry office earlier in the morning, due to Shen Lingfeng's cold expression, the staff had even asked, "Are you sure you want to register for marriage?"There are all kinds of marriages in the world, not all of them are based on love, and theirs was one without any emotion.She got out of the car, and Shen Lingfeng handed her an IC card and a business card. The business card had a few numbers written on it,"The numbers on the business card are the door code. The house is on the top floor. It's a private elevator, you need to swipe the card."His voice was deep and pleasant, but because of his indifferent expression, it sounded distant, even a little cold.Xu Zhen nodded and took the items. "I understand."Shen Lingfeng didn't spare her another glance and turned to head back to the car.But then he suddenly turned around. "You read the agreement clearly, right? You're free to publicly announce that you're married, but you cannot disclose that I'm your husband. I don't want your family to profit off my name."Xu Zhen was taken aback. She hadn't expected him to bring this up.Indeed, there was a clause in the agreement that the woman couldn't disclose the man's identity within one year.Old Master Shen had called her yesterday specifically to mention this. The reason was that Shen Lingfeng felt there was no emotional foundation between them, and if they got along after a year, they could go public.In simple terms, it was a trial marriage for a year.This suited Xu Zhen's intentions, and without a second thought, she agreed.She imagined that if they ever divorced, she'd have to live her life with the title of Shen Lingfeng's wife, and the thought made her uneasy.She was considering the possibility of divorce, waiting until she had enough money to pay back the Shen family, or waiting for Shen Lingfeng to bring it up himself one day.She had already signed the agreement, but Shen Lingfeng had emphasized it, asking her to personally confirm, which made her a bit angry."Mr. Shen, I've read every clause in the agreement clearly. I've signed my name and will follow the terms. No one knows about our marriage, not even my mother. But unfortunately, my grandfather knows; it was Old Master Shen who told him."She paused before adding, "However, I need to tell one good friend about my marriage. She'll help me keep it from my family. But don't worry, I won't tell her your identity. Is that okay?"Shen Lingfeng narrowed his eyes, studying her beautiful face that was tinged with anger. "Okay."But in his mind, he thought, Didn't expect her to have a temper. All that previous gentleness was just an act.She must have been provoked, which made her angry.He didn't say anything more and got into the car.As the car left Tianhua Garden, he remembered he hadn't told her that they were supposed to go to the Shen family's old house for dinner tonight.This was a command from Old Master Shen, and he had no choice but to comply.Just as he was about to call her, he realized he didn't have her number, and they hadn't even added each other on WeChat. Any messages were relayed through his assistant.He called his assistant, Yang Zhuming. "Tell Xu Zhen that the Old Master wants her at the old house for dinner at 7:00 tonight."When Yang Zhuming called Xu Zhen, she had already entered Shen Lingfeng's apartment.The house, occupying the entire top floor, was huge and lavishly decorated, with expensive-looking furniture.She thought, if not for marrying Shen Lingfeng, she would never have lived in such a luxurious house. Although she would only live here for a year, it would be a memory she could cherish forever.She stood in the living room and naturally answered the call from Yang Zhuming.This assistant had been in contact with her for the past few days, and from the initial awkwardness, they had become familiar."I understand. I'll be there at 7:00 tonight. But I don't know the address of the old house, can you send it to me?"A short while after hanging up, Yang Zhuming sent her the address of the Shen family's old house in Nanshuo Lane via WeChat.Xu Zhen checked the map and saw that it would take about an hour by car from Tianhua Garden to Nanshuo Lane.Next, she started organizing her luggage.Given Shen Lingfeng's attitude today, she was sure he wouldn't want to share the master bedroom with her, and frankly, she didn't want to either.The other bedrooms had beds, and she picked the smallest one, though it didn't have bedding.She was glad she had packed her own bedding; otherwise, she would have had to buy new ones.
