What did Su Yuchen say?
They aren't really husband and wife yet?
Didn't they already perform the wedding ceremony?
Wait!
Luohong seemed to have told her back at the Taoist temple that in this era, to become true husband and wife, one needs some kind of certificate!
It’s over, it’s all over!
I won't be able to make my first bucket of gold!
Yun Yao felt somewhat depressed, completely ignoring the fact that Su Yuchen had just threatened to kill her.
She leaned in toward Su Yuchen.
"Then let's go get that certificate tomorrow!"
Setting everything else aside, Su Yuchen’s looks were truly to her taste!
In tens of thousands of years, it was rare to find a handsome man who could make her heart flutter!
If he accompanied her through this long life, perhaps it wouldn't be quite so dull.
After all... she was a total sucker for a pretty face!
Su Yuchen felt a sense of powerlessness, like punching cotton; he didn't even have the desire to kill her anymore, so he turned and walked away.
"Hey! Don't walk away!"
"You haven't promised me yet!"
"Bang!" The bedroom door was slammed shut.
Yun Yao was a bit bewildered.
No way. As the dignified Human Ancestor, wasn't she always the most sought-after prize in every lifetime?
Why wasn't it working on Su Yuchen?
Forget it, no use dwelling on it. Nothing was more important than sleeping to restore her vitality!
That night, Yun Yao slept exceptionally soundly.
...
The next day, she was awakened by the sound of voices.
As soon as she opened her eyes, several servants walked in from the door.
Mother Wang, who led them, spoke with a smile: "Young Mistress, although you have already performed the wedding ceremony with the Young Master, in the Su Family, we absolutely do not recognize a Young Mistress without an education."
"These are a few schools that Assistant Chen personally selected for you. Please take a look."
With her hair a mess, Yun Yao was completely dazed.
"You want me... to go to school?"
Hearing this, Mother Wang became even more convinced of Chen Dong’s decision.
"Yes, you must improve your educational background first to be qualified as the Young Mistress of the Su Family."
Yun Yao pondered for a moment.
"Is this Su Yuchen’s idea?"
Mother Wang nodded.
She thought to herself, isn't Assistant Chen’s idea the same as the Young Master’s?
Seeing this, Yun Yao threw off the quilt and got out of bed.
"Fine, then I’ll choose..."
She glanced over them roughly; none of them looked particularly pleasing, so she just pointed at one at random.
"Let's go with this one."
Mother Wang looked and her expression flickered slightly.
"Jingnan University?"
"The Young Master is a graduate of that school too! You two really are fated!"
Mother Wang placed the Jingnan University admission notice on the bedside table.
"Archaeology Department at Jingnan University. Report at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Please don't be late, Young Mistress."
Yun Yao looked dispirited.
"Got it."
Winning over a man is such a hassle!
If it were in the past...
Never mind, a hero shouldn't boast about past glories!
That face of Su Yuchen's, handsome enough to enrage both gods and men, plus his status as a man of wealth—it was worth the trouble!
"Young Mistress, this is your new phone."
"And these are your new clothes."
Mother Wang beckoned, and the maids walked in, placing various clothes and bags on the bed.
Yun Yao laughed so hard she was practically trembling.
"Understood, understood. I definitely won’t lose face for Su Yuchen."
It’s so good to be rich!
Once the servants left, Yun Yao picked up the phone, fiddled with it for a moment, and knew how to use it.
She called Luohong directly.
The other end hung up immediately.
Yun Yao was getting impatient and dialed again.
This time it was answered, and Luohong’s furious voice came through.
"Are you looking for death?"
Yun Yao’s voice was like ice.
"Say that again."
The other side went silent for a second, and then his attitude did a complete 180-degree turn.
"An... Ancestor?"
"I really didn't mean it, I didn't know it was you."
"Are... are you doing alright?"
It seemed Luohong already knew she had married into the Su Family.
"Your eye for choosing vessels remains as disgusting as ever."
Luohong: "..." *Sigh!* The Ancestor is still dissatisfied with her new body in this lifetime!
"Ancestor, you wanted one with the same name and surname, one who is beautiful, smart, has a good figure, and is rich!"
"And the point is, the vessel still had to be half-dead!"
"Do you know how hard it is to find someone suitable like that?"
"Next time! Next time I promise to find you a perfect one!"
Yun Yao had heard these words countless times.
"Enough nonsense. I called you this time to ask a question."
Luohong’s voice was sycophantic.
"Tell me, I will tell you everything I know!"
"How can I become a legal spouse to Su Yuchen?"
After a long time without a response from Luohong, Yun Yao grew impatient.
"Did you hear me?"
Luohong on the other end couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Ancestor, I have served you for hundreds of years, and I have never heard of you wanting to develop a marital relationship with anyone."
"You are a god!"
In Luohong’s eyes, Yun Yao was a god—the kind up in the heavens that no mortal could profane.
But now, even the god was entering the mortal world?
He couldn't accept it no matter how he looked at it.
"Ancestor, there are too many good-looking people out there. Let's just treat this lifetime as a game; why make it real?"
Yun Yao’s voice dropped.
"Luohong, are you telling me what to do?"
"I wouldn't dare!" Luohong sighed, "Fine, you just need to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with him to get a marriage certificate!"
"Got it. Hanging up."
"Ancestor, you’re only twenty years old now, you’re not even at the legal age for marriage in this era!" Luohong hurriedly said.
Yun Yao didn't listen at all and hung up the phone.
To her, age was not an issue!
As long as she and Su Yuchen became legal spouses, would she have to worry about him not falling at her feet?
Luohong didn't seem to give up. Not long after, he sent Yun Yao a message.
[If you marry Su Yuchen, your marital assets will be split equally!]
Knowing that Yun Yao loved money more than life, Luohong wanted to use this to restore her sanity.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Yun Yao was blinded by beauty.
[It doesn't matter. In this lifetime, I want to be a delicate, helpless little wife. As for earning money, let Su Yuchen do it!]
[That way, I can get half of his assets for nothing without doing a thing. It’s a good deal!]
Luohong: "..." Crazy! This world is truly crazy!
After talking with Luohong, Yun Yao was in a good mood and picked out a pale pink qipao to wear.
Standing in front of the mirror, she poured spiritual power into her body without any restraint.
Even though dark clouds were gathering outside the house, she didn't stop; instead, she shouted in a deep voice.
"What? Is it against the law for me to use my spells on myself?"
"Get out!"
The clouds in the sky seemed to shudder, and then dissipated.
Yun Yao looked at her gaunt frame starting to show some curves, and her satisfaction was evident in her eyes.
She really is a beauty!
She had already started looking forward to what she would look like when this body was fully restored!
Su Yuchen, are you ready to accept the overwhelming wealth I am about to bestow upon you?
