Chapter 2 Running Off With Another Woman

• What can I do for you, please?”
• The assistant vigilantly blocked in front of Ethan Lu and asked on behalf of him.
• Ruona strode up to the two, nodded, and said straightforwardly, “I just heard that Ethan Lu is looking for someone to marry, I wonder if I can?”
• “Huh?”
• The assistant looked startled, his entire body was stunned.
• Ethan Lu obviously didn’t expect this woman who suddenly called out to him to be so bold and indifferent with her eyes, and couldn’t help but take a second look at her.
• When he saw that Ruona was wearing a wedding dress on her body, his ancient eyes suddenly swept over with a strange light, seemingly a little surprised.
• Ruona was looking a little nervous.
• Although she asked calmly, she wasn’t too confident that Ethan Lu would agree.
• After all, for someone like Ethan Lu, who had an illustrious and powerful family, the women who wanted to marry her were like crucian carp, and many of them were definitely better than her. Therefore, she could only take her chances and ask questions.
• There seemed to be a brief pause in the air, and a long while later, Ethan Lu actually asked, “Where is your fiancé?”
• His voice was low and deep and full of magnetism, sounding especially sexy and charming.
• “Running off with another woman, I just happened to hear that Lu is looking for someone to marry, so if you don’t have a too good candidate, maybe you can team up with me. Don’t worry, I’ll cook, do laundry, be sensible and considerate, be a good wife, won’t get too close to other men, will be faithful to the marriage and take care of my husband, and keep my duty as a wife.”
• Ruona blinked and smiled, sounding as relaxed as if he were talking about the weather, and was not in the least bit afraid of that cold air about him.
• The assistant beside him finally came back to his senses, and the corner of his mouth was just a smack.
• Marriage and a team? What do you think you’re going to do, upgrade and fight?
• And this encounter is too sympathetic, isn’t it?
• “Miss, I’m sorry, but our president”
• The assistant was about to block Ruona back, but saw Ethan Lu waved his hand, stopping him from going on.
• The assistant was startled and didn’t react, then he saw Ethan Lu squint his eyes, his deep eyes stared at Ruona for a long time, and finally nodded, “Yes, I’ll marry you.”
• Huh? That’s a yes?
• Ruona felt incredulous.
• He hadn’t even asked anything, but he had actually agreed.
• This was too quick a promise, right?
• Not only Ruona, even the assistant beside him was shocked.
• “President, is there something wrong with this? We don’t know the lady’s history, should we investigate her profile before making a decision?”
• The assistant reacted extremely quickly and immediately had to persuade Ethan Lu to think twice.
• There are so many vain women nowadays, not to mention the fact that this woman called him General Manager Lu as soon as he came up, obviously knowing his identity, who knows if she is plotting something wrong?
• “No need.”
• Ethan Lu didn’t care, but a pair of eyes stared at Ruona, “If you marry me, you can’t go back on your word, have you thought about it?”
• “Think about it, I won’t go back on my word.”
• Ruona nodded solemnly, apparently determined.
• “Did you bring the account book?”
• Ethan Lu didn’t beat around the bush either, doing his best to show his thunderous nature.
• “No belt.” Ruona was startled and shook her head.
• Ethan Lu raised his hand and looked at his watch, “Go get it now, I’ll meet you at the Civil Affairs Bureau in an hour, any questions?”
• “No problem.” Ruona said without the slightest hesitation.
• “Good, Leo, drive her back.” Ethan Lu ordered to the assistant behind him.
• Leo:”
• About an hour later, Ruona and Ethan Lu were able to register as quickly as possible.
• After coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Ruona held the freshly baked red book, feeling like a dream.
• From now on, she was a married woman, and even though her husband had changed, Ruona had no regrets at all.
• “Mr. Lu, I wonder if you’re free right now? Can I talk to you for a minute?”
• Ruona suddenly called out to Ethan Lu who was walking ahead.
• “Yes.”
• Ethan Lu’s eyebrows were raised and he didn’t refuse.
• The two of them found a cafe nearby, and Ruona sat opposite Ethan Lu.
• As soon as they sat down, Ethan Lu opened the door and asked, “What do you want to talk about?”
• “It might be a bit presumptuous, but I hope that Mr. Lu can agree to a condition.”
• Ruona’s tone sounded like it was really a bit bottomless.
• After all, they had only just gotten married and the certificate hadn’t even been warmed up yet, it was really not right to ask him for a condition.
• “Tell me.”
• In the meantime, Ethan Lu’s eyebrows were imperceptibly knitted, but he didn’t show much displeasure.
• Ruona couldn’t help but feel relieved, then plucked up the courage to say, “If it’s possible, can we not make our marriage relationship public for the time being? I have a lot of personal matters I haven’t dealt with yet, and I don’t want that to affect you. Of course, you’re free to do what you want, I won’t interfere too much.”
• After hearing Ruona’s words, Ethan Lu’s look couldn’t see happiness or anger, only a hint of elusive light swept across the bottom of his eyes.
• After a long while of intonation, he spoke, “I can agree to your conditions, but I also have conditions.”
• “You say!” Ruona nodded.
• “One, moving in with me is basic to maintaining a marriage. Two, I have my own concerns, so if necessary, I’ll be open about who I am with you, and you can’t object.”
• “I agree.”
• Since Ethan Lu had agreed to her request, Ruona naturally had no reason to refuse.
• After they finished talking, Ruona didn’t stay long and left first.
• As soon as she left, Leo came in, looked at Ethan Lu, and couldn’t help but say, “President, is it true that you don’t need to check Miss Tang’s identity?”
• If it were usual, Ethan Lu would have already told him to investigate, where would he have repeatedly stopped it like this?
• What an anomaly!
• “Investigate naturally, I want to know all the reasons and consequences as to why she’s looking for a stranger to marry.”
• Ethan Lu pursed his l!ps, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
• “Yes, I will do it as soon as possible. But President.”
• “What?”
• “I have a question, did the president know Miss Tang before?”
• Why else would he agree to marry her without asking any questions? That’s not like him!
• Ethan Lu didn’t reply to Leo’s question, he just looked in the direction where Ruona had disappeared and hooked his l!ps in a meaningful way, “In the future, you should call her Madam!”
