The Life After Marrying My Sworn Enemy Chapter 4

Chapter 4- The White Swan and the Lazy Frog

Cheng Jinyu was sitting on the stairs not far away from the Civil Affairs Bureau wearing a baseball cap. Getting married to that man, a 16 year old Cheng Jinyu could have never imagined it.

But when he talked of love for 7 years with Wei Hua,  he fantasized about their wedding. After all, same s.e.x marriage had been acknowledged for many years.

It's just that Cheng Jinyu did not think he would actually get married to Gu Bokai. Would Gu Bokai even agree? Then what will Chen Yuze do?

Cheng Jinyu though about his meeting with Madame Gu yesterday, he didn't think that Madame Gu would be very satisfied with Cheng Jinyu, even held onto his hand and affectionately said that Cheng Jinyu was similar to her best friend.

Maybe it was because of this small similarity that Madame Gu immediately agreed to him marrying Gu Bokai. To the extent that she didn't even ask Cheng Jinyu about any other aspects.

When Ms. Zhang came out, she sneered at him, "Your life is is really lucky. But you need to remember that young master Gu belongs to young master Chen, don't crave things that don’t belong to you."

Now that Cheng Jinyu thought about it, he felt that it was very funny. How could he compare to Chen Yuze? As long as Gu Bokai was not blind or a fool, he would naturally know who to choose.

He was just the thunder to their road of love. To meet death and clear the road of all obstacles. Once he thought of this, Cheng Jinyu felt that he was a bit of a hero.

An eye-catching Bentley stopped at the Civil Affairs Bureau, drawing the attention of many people. The chauffeur Xiao Ma asked, "Young master Gu, do you really want to marry a stranger?"

"If not?"

"But… but young master Gu, Your favors from G.o.d should not be like this." Xiao Ma felt unhappy in his place.

Gu Bokai did not care at all, "My love died early on about 10 years ago. Marry whom, who to live my life with, it doesn’t matter either way. Of course, I also want to see if that person’s life is tough enough."

Gu Bokai finished talking, opened the door and walked out.

It was 9 o'clock, that d.a.m.n guy was late. Gu Bokai frowned, he hated late people the most.

Bored he looked around and saw a person not too far. Following his own gaze, he saw him hastily lower his head and even pulled his hat even lower.

He would still recognize this person even if he turned into ash. Gu Bokai strode over and directly lifted off the man's hat, "Why are you hiding from me?"

Gu Bokai was wearing a high quality custom made suit, his entire body emitted an elite temperament. Cheng Jinyu was curled up sitting there, 1.78 meters tall (5'8), but insisted on shrinking into a little ball.

"What are you doing here?"

Cheng Jinyu was slightly confused, did Gu Bokai not know that he was getting married to him?

"Nothing." Cheng Jinyu whispered. Since Madame Gu did not say anything, Cheng Jinyu would not trample this mine.

"Nothing but you’re here at the Civil Affairs Bureau? Oh, you're not here to get married right!"

Cheng Jinyu said inside his head, "Yes, it's with you."

Gu Bokai immediately straightened his body and seriously said to Cheng Jinyu, "Are you stupid? Do you not have a brain? That kind of sc.u.mmy man and you're still getting married to him? Did you never grow a brain?"

Cheng Jinyu felt that the painting just got deviated, how big exactly was the hole in this guy's brain?

Wishing for iron to turn into steel, Gu Bokai replied, "Can that kind of b.a.s.t.a.r.d even get married? Right now you can't resist against the seduction, but don't count on it in the future. You must be responsible for your own marriage, you can't marry again, and don't look for a lazy frog to marry! Even if you are a lazy frog yourself."

Cheng Jinyu hearing that last phrase couldn't help but smile, "I am a frog, then what about you? A white swan?"

Gu Bokai adjusted his tie for a moment, "I would not dare to call myself a white swan, but I am here today to find my white swan."

"Going to get married with a white swan?"

"Correct! In a moment you will see for yourself what kind of man you can entrust your life to, what kind of man you can actually marry. Open your eyes and look closely, you don't have two eyes so you can keep staring at a sc.u.mmy guy's body."

"If… I'm im saying what if, your white swan is actually a lazy frog？"

"Not possible!"

Cheng Jinyu shut his mouth, he actually felt a little sorry for Gu Bokai. In the past, if it was the parents who arranged the marriage, at least they would let the husband and wife meet before they marry!

This young master Gu brought his ID card to get married, didn't know if this man knew he was getting married to him. What kind of reaction will he have?

Cheng Jinyu did not expose his thoughts. A habit he developed over ten years, he barely spoke in front of Chen Yuze and his friends, being pa.s.sive was already his regular behavior.

Only Cheng Jinyu did not think that Gu Bokai did not want to leave. He just stood in front of Cheng Jinyu. His gloomy gaze at Cheng Jinyu made Cheng Jinyu get gooseb.u.mps.

"What exactly are you thinking?" Gu Bokai asked another question. Cheng Jinyu did not respond, these types of people never needed an answer.

"Didn't you not like men?" a feeble voice came over. Cheng Jinyu turned his head to look but Gu Bokai already had his face turned to a side.

Cheng Jinyu did not know if it was Gu Bokai who said it just now or not, but he certainly did not ask him what he was thinking.

Two people, one was sitting and one was standing. There were many people who came and left the Civil Affairs Bureau. The ones who were married had faces full of joy and couldn’t wait to tell the world that they married today. The divorced ones had faces full of vile. Disgusted with each other they ran in opposite directions once they exited the door.

Two hours pa.s.sed, Cheng Jinyu did not think that Gu Bokai would be able to wait two hours. It was already 11 o'clock, in a bit it'll be noon and the Civil Affairs Bureau would be on break.

Cheng Jinyu still needed that 250,000 for the medical fee, the faster the better. But the person standing in front of him did not have the slightest bit of anxiousness and even stood for two hours, unexpectedly still able to stand his ground.

The driver, Xiao Ma, couldn’t stand it anymore. He hurriedly ran over and straightforwardly said to the young master. This was supposed to be a five minute situation, how come its been two hours and he still hadn't come back yet?

The key point was that Xiao Ma saw his young master standing there unmoving for two hours.

"Young master Gu, you still have a meeting at 1 o’clock, do you want to cancel it?"

"Of course, I'm getting married today."

　Xiao Ma's entire face was full of black lines. Since they left the house today, Xiao Ma reminded him to cancel the meeting. After all today he would get a certificate, it was still a major event to someone's life.

A face full of black lines

But this young master said it like this, "It's not the first time getting a certificate, it will be finished in five minutes." But why is it after coming here, it had completely changed.

No need to talk about the important meeting in the afternoon, there was also lots of work scheduled in the morning, but this master, actually stood there motionless for two hours.

Xiao Ma had a stomach full of words, but he didn’t dare to say them, just reminded this master that he didn't have a lot of time. He didn't think that he would directly cancel this meeting. Xiao Ma was thoroughly muddled, did he still want to continue to wait? The important thing was what were you waiting for?

Gu Bokai sneered, "Biao Ge, Where's your sc.u.m man? How come he hasn't appeared yet? Can it be he backed out,  doesn't want to marry you anymore."

Cheng Jinyu rebuted, "What about your white swan?"

"We made an appointment in the afternoon."

"Oh, then young master Gu came very early."

Gu Bokai was livid. That d.a.m.n man, if he was late then it would still be ok, could still let the doves fly.

Gu Bokai turned his body to leave, walked to the corner and dialed the number his mother left him.

Cheng Jinyu watched as his own phone began to ring. A strange number, was it from the hospital?

Cheng Jinyu immediately picked up, "h.e.l.lo?"

Gu Bokai's entire body suddenly shuddered, the person on the other side spoke. "Who is it? Why are you looking for me?"

Gu Bokai used a hand to m.u.f.fle his phone, turned around the corner and peaked his head out to take a look. Cheng Jinyu had his phone up right next to his ear.

Gu Bokai once again put his phone to his ear again, a reply from other there came. "Why aren't you speaking, who are you looking for?"

Gu Bokai directly just hung up his phone and turned his head to look over there. Cheng Jinyu was weirdly looking at his phone, then shook his head and put his hand in his pocket.

Gu Bokai felt gooseb.u.mps over his entire body, what exactly was this plot? How come no one informed him ahead of time.

Gu Bokai immediately dialed his mother's phone number. Mother Gu happily answered, "Son, is it that you already got the certificate? How come you haven’t come back yet? I have already sent Butler Li to come pick you guys up."

"Mom, who exactly am I marrying?"

"You haven't found him yet? Didn't I give you his phone number? You can call him!"

"How come you didn't inform me that the person marrying me is Biao Ge?"

Mother Gu, "I gave you a picture. You didn't even take one look at it, even said it doesn't matter who, no need to look."

"But how could it be him?"

"Son, do you know him? Then that's great, proves that you guys are…"

"Mom, I can't marry this person, absolutely cannot." Gu Bokai directly said.

Mother Gu's gentle tone disappeared and she bluntly cried out. "Husband, my heart disease came back. Hurry and send me to the hospital."

"Mom, mom—-"

Father Gu took over, "I'm taking your mother to the hospital, get some mourning clothes while you’re on your way home. You made the entire house avoid you."

"Dad!"

"Don't cry 'Dad' at me. If your mom has an unexpected death, you can just come to the cemetery to see us."

Gu Bokai felt that his entire face had black lines. Other people's parents were understanding and reasonable, how come when it came to himself it was like this. Mom was excusable, how come dad was stubborn like mom now.

Mother Gu took over the phone again, "Let me tell you, If I don't see you married when I'm on my deathbed, In this lifetime I will not close my eyes when I die (1)."

"Mom, don't talk like that."

"Son, you must look for a tough life don’t you know? Otherwise, what will you do if you kill another one? (2) As long as this person' is tough, then the other aspects will have to make do."

"I could just not get married."

"Not allowed, Mother refuses to watch you grow old and alone. Ok, you do as you see fit, we're going to the hospital now. If you bring your wife with you, we can still meet. If there is no wife, then you better just go straight to the cemetery."

Totally unreasonable. When he carefully thought about it, when was his mother ever logical. His father was already used to this.

Gu Bokai sighed and looked at his watch. 11:14, there was still 20 minutes before the Civil Affairs Bureau closed.

Gu Bokai directly walked to Cheng Jinyu's front, "You dog s.h.i.t, trying to block your fortune. Your life is lucky."

Cheng Jinyu had never seen such a narcissistic person before, "Then your white swan?"

"Turned into lazy frog."

Cheng Jinyu, "…"

"What are you doing still sitting here? Lets go!"

"To do what?"

"Get married!"

"You… you really want to get married? With me?"

Gu Bokai crossed his arms, "Happy? Pleased? Still need to wake up happy from a dream?"

Cheng Jinyu stood up, "Actually, I think you should refuse."

"You think I don’t want to?"

Cheng Jinyu really did not know why Gu Bokai felt awkward and did not want to disclose, at the worst it wouldn't be as bad as his situation. However no matter, they could only brace themselves and walk forward.

There was currently no one at the Same-s.e.x Marriage window, they could immediately begin.

The staff saw these two people. One of them looked like a refugee, one was actually covered in name brands, walking brought a golden glow of a bachelor.

"Marry?

"Yes." Gu Bokai replied.

The workers made great efforts to digest everything in front of them, "Yes, right now everybody is equal, marriage is freedom. Is there a picture? If not we can take a picture for you."

Gu Bokai turned his head to look at Cheng Jinyu. A faded grey t-shirt that splotches of white. At the bottom there was blue jeans. The bottom of the pants were worn out and broken, just now when he was sitting he didn’t see it.

"Today we are getting married! Did you not know? Can't you change outfits to look like it?"

"This is my best clothes already." Cheng Jinyu replied indifferently.

"These are your best clothes? Are you not embarra.s.sed?"

The staff couldn't stand it anymore. “Can you help him buy a set? After all you’re already married. Mister this outfit costs at least a couple thousand, the outfit of your partner…."

Gu Bokai's face was cloudy, he felt that Cheng Jinyu did it on purpose to deliberately embarra.s.s him. And intentionally not speaking just now, he just wanted to make trouble for him and made him wait for two hours.

This b.a.s.t.a.r.d, purposefully trying to subdue him.

Gu Bokai turned around, "Lets go!"

"What are you doing?"

"Of course it’s to buy an outfit."

Cheng Jinyu, "No need, just take a picture of our heads for the marriage photo. The clothes won't even fit in the frame."

Gu Bokai tugged on his outfit, "Come with me!" leaving no room for protest, pulled Cheng Jinyu and walked out.

The workers stuck their head out and called, "Buy a good one, you won't miss the money!"

Not close one's eyes when one dies: die with a grievance; discontent So the actual term is Ke Si (克死). According to the internet, it's a certain way to say "go die" in a certain area in China. But according to my friend from China, it can also mean to overpower someone. So GBK isn't actually murdering people, but his presence is "overpowering" to people and causes them to die.

T/N: So funny note, the chauffeur’s name Xiao Ma, literally means little horse/pony. The driver’s name is little horse….
