Chapter 38 - Why Me?

Jiang Ruolan was stunned and quickly tried to push Xian Zihao away, but the grip on her waist suddenly tightened. His lips seemed to brush gently towards her ears, causing her to shiver uncontrollably as she raised her hands to block it.

She raised her head and glared at him.

Xian Zihao did not use too much force, but his power was too much for Jiang Ruolan to fight freely. She resentfully looked at the cold mockery in his eyes and caught a glimpse of the indentation of his lips. "You!"

"If this continues, the Civil Affairs Bureau will be closed." Xian Zihao suddenly smiled for no reason and let go of his grip.

Jiang Ruolan was a little shaken and staggered. A look of embarrassment flashed across her originally angry face.

Teasing her was a very interesting thing for Xian Zihao. The smile in his eyes deepened. "Are you waiting for me to propose?"

Jiang Ruolan quietly calmed her heart. She saw a faint smile in his eyes and cursed him ten thousand times in her heart. She finally said, "No need!"

Xian Zihao took the lead in stepping through the doors of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Their marriage registration was separate from the others, so this matter was settled more quickly than others.

At least, with Xian Zihao here, no one dared make him wait any longer, even if he did not urge them.

Fifteen minutes later, they both exited the Civil Affairs Bureau. Jiang Roulan knew it was too late for her to regret, but she still looked at the tall figure in front of her with a confused expression. Why did Xian Zihao choose her?

Xian Zihao turned to her. "You don't know much about Xian Family, do you?"

How did Jiang Ruolan not know that Xian Zihao's grandfather was a great general during the War Against Japan and a well-known general in the country?

However, the point behind his question was that if one day he no longer needs her, he will not be able to divorce her easily. The full power and rights as Xian Zihao's wife given to her made her feel unhappy.

Jiang Ruolan did not understand how someone like Xian Zihao could be so hasty towards marriage.

"Why me?" She muttered as she squeezed the marriage certificate in her hand.

Xian Zihao pursed his lips. "Everyone is the same."

"Excuse me?" Jiang Ruolan was stunned.

Xian Zihao stood outside the door, his tall and noble figure under the scorching sun looked like a blazing fire as if he was free from the world. Upon hearing her approached, he did not look back. His gaze moved through the flow of traffic and landed in an unknown place.

Xian Zihao spoke in a cold and faint voice. "If you can't love me in this life, it will be the same for everyone."

Jiang Ruolan was stunned. She seemed to be beginning to understand himself. She stood next to him while looking into his eyes with confusion.

Could it be that the person Xian Zihao loves was not Cui Liuxian but someone else?

Would someone as superior as him be hurt by love?
