Chapter 5: Married?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The refrigerator and food cabinets were empty. Lu Qi really did not eat at home, nor did he cook.

Looking at the lifeless home, Bai Yi thought to herself that this would be her home in the future. She had to run it well.

Bai Yi ordered some things she needed and roughly decorated the house, preparing to eat with her best friend.

The sun was almost setting. Noisy music was playing in the dance studio.

In order to serve the office workers and students, this dance studio had a lot of classes scheduled at night.

The first lesson of the day was a hiphop class. Strong rhythmic music and footsteps resounded throughout the entire floor.

Her good friend and partner, Cui Yu, had already arrived and was warming up with the students.

“Come on, Bai Yi. Let’s dance together.” Cui Yu reached out and called Bai Yi over.

She was exhausted from cleaning the room, so how could she have the energy to dance? Bai Yi shook her head.

Only when it was breaktime did Bai Yi get to speak to Cui Yu.

“I got married,” Bai Yi said

“What? Sister Bai, you got married?”

The students in the dance studio were very familiar with Bai Yi and surrounded her to listen to the gossip.

Cui Yu felt that she was deaf. The dance studio was originally very noisy, but all she could hear was Bai Yi saying, “I got married.”

“Married? To who? Could it be those people your brother-in-law introduced?”

Cui Yu knew about Bai Yi’s family situation and also knew that her brother-in-law often threatened her to marry her to strange people in exchange for a betrothal gift. However, she had always thought that Bai Yi would not agree. How could she agree?

“Don’t worry. It’s not those people my brother-in-law talks about. It’s that old granny I saved previously. She introduced me to her grandson. I felt that he was not bad and got married.”

Cui Yu knew about Grandma Lu. That day, the two of them had originally agreed to go out to watch a movie together, but Bai Yi saw Grandma Lu, who had suddenly fallen ill, on the way and sent her to the hospital.

“That’s good, but I didn’t hear you say that you were going on a blind date. Why didn’t you tell me?”

“No blind date. We just met this morning and then it was settled.”

Cui Yu felt that her jaw was about to fall off.

What was Bai Yi talking about? She had only seen this person once, but she had already registered her marriage with him?

“This is a flash marriage!”

“It must be true love if it was a flash marriage!”

“When will the wedding be held, Sister Bai?”

The students did not know about Bai Yi’s family’s situation and started cheering.

Cui Yu sent the students to class and pulled Bai Yi out to ask, “Bai Yi, did you get married to move out?”

Cui Yu and Bai Yi had known each other for so long and knew Bai Yi’s temper. She felt sorry for her sister and hoped that she could live a happy life. It was not impossible for her to get married and move out for this.

Sure enough, Bai Yi nodded. “I moved out of my sister’s place. This way, my sister and my brother-in-law’s relationship should become better.”

“This is sacrificing your happiness. Why are you so selfless? You’re giving up your own life and marriage?!”

Bai Yi shook her head. “It’s okay. Grandma Lu has such a good character. Her grandson and I are just living together. There won’t be any problem.”

“No, how can you get married without love!”

Cui Yu’s family was a little rich. She had always planned her life according to the direction she liked since she was young. Her attitude towards marriage was also that she would rather not get married than marry someone she did not love.

Bai Yi was very envious of her free life, but she did not believe in love.

To rich people, love was important. It would add more beautiful tastes to life, but to a poor person like her, love was sometimes a burden, a lie that had been ground to ashes.

Her sister had been bewitched by the so-called “love”. That was why she had led such a lowly life in her marriage. She had no life of her own and only made sacrifices.

“I’m here to find someone to live with, not to have any love,” Bai Yi explained. “As long as I don’t drag my sister down, I’ll do anything.”

Cui Yu felt that her friend was too stupid, but she still nodded. “If you’re not doing well, you must tell me. I’ll tell our Cui family to deal with him.”

Cui Yu still had the right to deal with a small executive. She could not watch her friend suffer.

The last lesson in the dance studio ended at ten o’clock. She and Cui Yu cleaned up the store and had supper with the teachers before returning home.

There was no one at home. It was dark. She reached out to turn on the light in the entryway. After turning it on for a long time, she remembered that she had already moved.

Not only had she moved, but she was also someone else’s wife.
