Chapter 111 Double Standards
Yan San had never experienced this feeling of being at a loss before; he was used to having everything under his control.
However, this marriage really stumped him.
Fu Baili was right; he indeed could not force a divorce within a year of marriage unless special circumstances arose and he was granted a pardon.
He could only wait, for seven months.
Yan San let out a heavy breath, and with his eyes half-closed, calmly asked, "What kind of person is the other party?"
Fu Baili immediately perked up. Yan San had actually asked him about women! What an incredible thing this was!
Fu Baili once thought that Yan San, this emotionally detached guy, would be lonely for the rest of his life, and that there would be no successor to the marshal of their empire. So he painstakingly proposed the method of a fake marriage, which was perhaps a roundabout way to get him to get closer to women.
Unexpectedly, after his trip to City A, he returned with a girl he cared about!
It's really... a complete turn of events.
“Speaking of which, you really have a connection with City A. Your wife is also from City A, and she’s only eighteen! You might have even met her…” Fu Baili smiled sinisterly. He could have reminded Yan San earlier, but he didn’t.
Yan San was taken aback.
"Eighteen years old!?" He wasn't concerned with whether he had met the person before, but rather with their young age!
Although eighteen is considered an adult, one is still a student! He, on the other hand, is already twenty-six!
Fu Baili, that unreliable guy, actually found a little girl!
Facing Yan San's reproachful gaze, Fu Baili rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Do you think it's so easy to find a candidate! You should be grateful that you were able to find someone willing to accept such strange conditions in such a short time!"
Speaking of this matter, Fu Baili also vented his resentment without holding back. At that time, he was so worried about choosing Yan San's fake wife that his hair turned quite white!
Fu Baili's primary choice is someone who lives far from the capital, preferably a docile woman with little independent thought, and most importantly, someone who won't reveal the marital relationship during the engagement period and won't ask too many questions as long as she receives money.
He anonymously posted his marriage requirements online and screened all the applicants one by one.
This matter had to be carried out in complete secrecy. Fu Baili had gone through great lengths to select the most suitable person from among thousands of people!
"Don't worry, the person I chose is introverted and shy, comes from a single-parent family, and came to the marriage search to pay off her boyfriend's debts. She doesn't seem like the kind of person who would cause trouble. She doesn't know who she's marrying and hasn't asked any questions. Besides, there are advantages to being a young girl. If you threaten her a little, she won't dare tell anyone about this."
Fu Baili put away his playful attitude and spoke seriously.
The little girl kept her head down the whole time, not even daring to look up at him! This kind of personality was exactly the kind of easy-to-control person Fu Baili was looking for, so he immediately made the decision for Yan San and signed the contract and marriage certificate.
Five million could buy a bride to solve his immediate financial crisis, which Fu Baili considered a great deal!
"If I remember correctly, the girl who caught your attention is also an eighteen-year-old student. Do you have to be so double-standard?" Fu Baili grinned sarcastically, mercilessly attacking Yan San.
Yan San was immediately rendered speechless.
He sensed a mature composure in Xi Yu, which was completely incomparable to that of a naive young girl. She often made him feel like she was one of his peers, to the point that he always forgot her age.
