Chapter 117: Facilitating Your Marriage to Her

~11 min read 2,038 words

Nan Gong Jue looked at Song Huan Yan, "I didn't expect you to be so petty and extremely stingy. The rumor about abortion you mentioned, An An has already told me; she only did it to help the person she idolizes. You hold a grudge against her and won't let it go, right?"

Song Huan Yan was also speechless and said, "Does how you see me matter to me? Let me make it clear, she came to my office first. I didn't go looking for a fight with her!"

Nan Gong Jue said, "She came to you to plead. If you don't intend to show any mercy, fine, but you still resorted to violence. Song Huan Yan, does my big brother know you're this kind of person?"

Song Huan Yan snorted, "Your big brother only feels sorry when I act. Also, do you know what she told me that made me hit her?"

Nan Gong Jue snapped, "I'm not interested in knowing!"

Song Huan Yan took a deep breath, "Fine."

She finished and pointed to the doorway, "Then please leave; this is my office!"

Nan Gong Jue clearly didn't want to tangle further, and left while supporting Qiao An.

Song Huan Yan said, "What a damned ghost, impossible to persuade with kind words."

"What did you say?" Nan Gong Jue turned his head.

Song Huan Yan stared at him coldly, "Since your mind is so muddled and you insist on defying the heavens for love, you must bear all the consequences yourself."

Nan Gong Jue let out a cold snort and left with Qiao An.

Song Huan Yan was so angry she felt dizzy and head‑heavy, finally deeply sensing Nan Gong Yu's mood from last night.

She never expected Nan Gong Jue to still have a Love Brain.

Qiao An tossed out a few half‑hearted lines, and he believed them without doubt.

Nan Gong Jue took Qiao An to the car and drove straight to Yu Huang Group.

Qiao An was still shedding tears, grabbed a sheet of paper, and while wiping her tears she also wiped her nosebleed, feeling rather odd.

She was injured; given Nan Gong Jue's concern for her, why hadn't he cared for her?

Still puzzled, Nan Gong Jue spoke, "We're going to Yu Huang."

Qiao An widened her eyes slightly, "To see your big brother?"

Nan Gong Jue nodded.

Qiao An's hand, which had been wiping the nosebleed, froze and stopped.

When Nan Gong Jue brought Qiao An to Yu Huang, Nan Gong Yu was just about to start a meeting.

Because of his arrival, Meng Zhangfeng postponed the meeting.

But unexpectedly, Nan Gong Jue opened his mouth to complain, "An An was hit by Elder Sister-in-law."

Nan Gong Yu frowned, then raised a cold eyebrow.

Nan Gong Jue added, "Big brother, look, the nosebleed is coming out; the blow was heavy."

Nan Gong Yu said coolly, "So? You come to me to complain? How do you want me to handle it? Have Elder Sister-in-law apologize, or… have her hit you back?"

Nan Gong Jue naturally knew Nan Gong Yu was speaking sarcastically.

He looked at Nan Gong Yu and said, "Big brother, I…"

Nan Gong Yu remained cold and said, "It has nothing to do with Elder Sister-in-law; it's because of you, this woman. Without your Elder Sister-in-law, I also wouldn't…"

Nan Gong Jue frowned, "Why exactly?"

Nan Gong Yu was very impatient, "I've already said it, she's not a good person, and besides, you're too stupid."

Nan Gong Jue's eyes trembled deeply, also feeling hurt.

He erupted, "Yes, I'm stupid. Since childhood I haven't been as clever as you, not as outstanding. Even if I have someone I like, I'm still not as good as you…"

Nan Gong Yu said, "I don't mean that; you twist it, and I don't want to explain. Speak up, you came to me—besides complaining, what else? It can't be that you want me to…"

Nan Gong Jue took a deep breath and sneered, "How could I dare be your master."

Nan Gong Yu stared at him firmly, "No nonsense, get to the point."

Nan Gong Jue nodded, "Fine. You can now go to the media and publicly expel me. Also, I know that without your permission, An An and I can't even process a Marriage Certificate. But I must tell you, since you want to expel me, you can't control my marriage. I hope you won't make the Civil Affairs Bureau refuse to process my marriage certificate."

After Nan Gong Jue finished speaking, Nan Gong Yu remained silent, staring at him for a long time.

Finally he said, "Nan Gong Jue, your nonsense has its limits."

"I'm not being reckless," Nan Gong Jue said, "Last night… An An has already become my woman, and I must take responsibility for her."

Hearing that, Qiao An was startled.

Nan Gong Yu was even more stunned, then erupted, "Nan Gong Jue, are you really starving? What kind of thing can you even swallow?"

Nan Gong Jue said, "Say what you will, I must marry Qiao An anyway."

Nan Gong Yu was left speechless, rubbing his temples, and remained silent.

After a long while, Nan Gong Yu calmly looked at him, "Have you considered it?"

Nan Gong Jue replied firmly, "I've considered it."

"Fine," Nan Gong Yu agreed, saying, "Since… you must marry, big brother will see you off."

He finished and looked at Meng Zhangfeng, "Please have someone from the Civil Affairs Bureau come over to handle their paperwork."

Meng Zhangfeng was startled and instinctively suggested, "Imperial Emperor, is this… a bit rushed? Perhaps we should take it slower?"

Nan Gong Jue replied displeased, "Meng Zhangfeng, what does this have to do with you?"

Meng Zhangfeng fell silent.

Nan Gong Yu said, "Proceed."

Meng Zhangfeng could only say, "Yes."

Nan Gong Jue exhaled, looking at Qiao An.

Qiao An was already at a loss.

What?

Just… to marry Nan Gong Jue?

Legal spouses?

Qiao An got excited, her lips couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Thus, she officially entered the Nan Gong Clan's household and became intricately linked with Nan Gong Yu.

After hanging up, Meng Zhangfeng said, "Lord Nan Gong, I've already summoned them; they should arrive in about forty minutes. But you...."

At that, Meng Zhangfeng hesitated, then asked, "Are you sure it really has to be like this?"

Nan Gong Yu looked at Nan Gong Jue, "If you want to marry, I'll consent; after the marriage, you must bear the responsibilities properly."

Nan Gong Jue replied, "If you can elope, I can too."

Nan Gong Yu curled his lips coldly, "Don't compare trash with my wife."

Nan Gong Jue took a deep breath, endured it again, and remained silent.

Meng Zhangfeng was terribly headache‑ridden.

Nan Gong Yu stood up, looked at Meng Zhangfeng, "First hold a meeting; the Civil Affairs Bureau's people have come to inform me. Also, contact the media and prepare to publicly announce the Expulsion in three days."

Meng Zhangfeng was stunned for a moment, then could only say, "Yes."

Nan Gong Yu strode swiftly to the conference room to hold the meeting.

Meng Zhangfeng didn't follow, but couldn't help urging, "Second Young Master, you.... really shouldn't be so impulsive. Don't you understand Lord Nan Gong? How could he harm you? If Miss Qiao...."

"Stop talking," Nan Gong Jue cut off Meng Zhangfeng.

Meng Zhangfeng had no choice but to nod, lift his steps, and leave.

Qiao An was both excited and anxious, and said, "Brother Nan Gong Jue, are you really going to marry me? Can I really become your wife?"

Nan Gong Jue nodded, "Of course."

Qiao An worried again, "But... big brother said that in three days... you'll be publicly Expunged?"

Nan Gong Jue looked at her, "Are you scared?"

"Of course not!" Qiao An clutched Nan Gong Jue tightly, tears streaming, choking out, "Brother Nan Gong Jue, you're really kind to me."

Qiao An was indeed deeply moved.

Having a man so resolute and towering for her in this life made her feel it was worth it.

Meng Zhangfeng couldn't help calling Song Huan Yan and telling her about this matter.

Song Huan Yan was stunned for a long while, then said, "Got it."

What followed was indescribable entanglement and anger.

Qiao An… seems she hasn't had the surgery yet!

Carrying another's child and getting a certificate with Nan Gong Jue?

No.

Absolutely not.

Song Huan Yan immediately called Nan Gong Yu.

Nan Gong Yu paused the meeting to answer; Song Huan Yan, anxious, said, "They must not be allowed to marry!"

Before she could explain the reason, Nan Gong Yu replied, "Don't worry. It's fake."

Song Huan Yan was startled, "What? You.... want to make a Fake Certificate for them?"

Nan Gong Yu said, "Hmm."

Song Huan Yan was stunned, silent for a long time.

Nan Gong Yu said, "Huan Yan?"

Song Huan Yan came to herself.

Nan Gong Yu continued, "If we don't set a trap, how will the fox show its tail?"

Song Huan Yan took a deep breath, then said, "Alright, I'll follow your lead."

Nan Gong Yu said, "Hmm. I'm still in the meeting; shall I hang up first?"

For some reason, Song Huan Yan blurted out, "Lord Nan Gong, do you.... miss me?"

That made Nan Gong Yu pause, then immediately say, "Huan Yan misses me?"

Song Huan Yan squeezed the phone tightly, gave a "Hmm," and said, "I miss you."

Nan Gong Yu was stunned again, then laughed, "I miss you too."

Unexpectedly, hearing that made Song Huan Yan feel relieved, and she said, "Hmm, you continue the meeting; I'll hang up first."

After speaking, Song Huan Yan hung up, her heart pounding fast.

The words "Fake Certificate" oddly stirred her.

Afterward, she gathered her thoughts.

She thought seriously.

Given Qiao An's current situation, even with a certificate from Nan Gong Jue, she couldn't sleep together.

One night together would expose the truth, wouldn't it?

The last time that doctor was bribed, everything was disclosed.

Qiao An's child was discovered a bit early, not enough time for an abortion procedure.

At such an early stage, it's also an unstable period; if she really did it, she might end up with a full abortion...

So Qiao An probably wouldn't go ahead with that.

She would definitely try to stall for time.

Thus, Nan Gong Jue would inevitably become suspicious.

In short, this method truly could make Qiao An's fox tail show, and Nan Gong Jue would likely discover it himself.

Thinking of that, Song Huan Yan finally felt a bit relieved.

Qiao An hasn't been to Qin Zi Mo's Bieshu for several days; if she suddenly eloped with Nan Gong Jue, she'd have to go to that Bieshu, needing some explanations and plans.

But perhaps Qiao An will not go again, and will draw a clear line with Qin Zi Mo here?

After all, Nan Gong Jue has done everything for Qiao An; even she, an outsider, is moved watching it.

Soon, Nan Gong Jue and Qiao An actually obtained the Marriage Certificate.

Qiao An was completely out of it.

After taking it, Nan Gong Yu said to Meng Zhangfeng, "Send the person out."

Nan Gong Jue was also very resolute, and left with Qiao An.

As Song Huan Yan had guessed, Qiao An instead felt guilty.

Initially she thought that if she couldn't obtain the Marriage Certificate, she would resort to a risky ploy—sleep first and deal with it later.

But now that she has it, of course she doesn't want to take any risk.

After the Imperial Emperor left, Qiao An said she needed to go to the film set; filming could not be delayed any longer.

Nan Gong Jue was a bit puzzled and said, "You still have a wound on your face; how can you act?"

Qiao An explained, "It's fine; I'll just apply a cold compress at the set later, and I still need to do makeup anyway."

Nan Gong Jue thought she wanted to finish the drama quickly and make other plans, so he said, "You said before that I would set up a company for you; I'll find someone now to assemble a team for you."
