Chapter 1014 - Miss, your marriage certificate is fake.
“Ziming… please. Please let this marriage certificate… be real… Please, please don’t be fake…”
Alas, her prayers were meant to go unanswered.
When she placed the certificate before the bureau staff, the latter scrutinized it and then told her, “Miss, I don’t know where this was made, but while it looks real, we don’t have records of it in our system…”
The staff’s words shot down the last bit of hope in her heart.
“It’s fake, huh…” she mumbled, feeling out of sorts.
“Yes, miss. Your wedding certificate was falsified. If you were conned, we could make a report for you. Would you like us to do that?”
Seeing how hard she took the news, the staff felt pity for her.
Almost instantly, she answered the call.
“Hello, Xiao—”
Before she could really say anything, she heard yelling from the other end.
“Pei Ge, you finally picked up! My plane landed this noon, you know? Do you have any idea how many times I’ve called you?! Do you know how long I’ve been waiting here at the airport for you to pick me up?! How dare you not to take my calls! You…”
Her best friend’s upbeat voice came through.
Inexplicably, she felt much better when she heard her best friend’s chiding.
“Are you still at the airport?” She asked this softly after the other was done yelling at her.
“Of course, of course! I’m still here. I haven’t even had lunch yet!”
She looked at her watch upon hearing that. It was almost four in the afternoon—way past lunchtime.
“What a coincidence; I haven’t had lunch yet, either. Perhaps, we can grab lunch together.”
