Chapter 429


    Selena ced her name card on the table. “Here’s my contact. I would like to start a noodle store in this area, and you guys cane over to help


    out if you''re interested. I''ve never started a business in the food industry, and I don’t know much about it, so I would really appreciate your help


    The owner and his wife exchanged puzzled nces. They could tell that Selena and Pierre weren''t like the regr customers they had, but they


    hadn''t expected them to be such powerful people. They make starting a noodle restaurant sound as simple as cracking a joke!


    “Don''t worry; we aren''t conmen. We''re just here to register for our marriage at the bureau.” Selena slipped her arm into Pierre’s and walked away


    after she finished her sentence.


    On their way to the Civil Affairs Bureau, the skies began to pour. They couldn’t find shelter anywhere along the alleys, so they both got themselves


    soaked in rainwater. “Are you really nning to start a noodle restaurant here?” Pierre asked.


    “Yeah. Did you think I was kidding?” She looked at him earnestly. "I want all of the couples whoe over to get married to have a ce where they


    can eat noodles on their big day. I’ve even thought of a name for the restaurant! I''m going to call it Evesting Noodle House.” The old-fashioned


    name sounded almost ancient to Pierre.


    All of a sudden, Selena gave him a peck on the lips. “Let''s have a bowl of noodles each time youe back, okay?”


    He gazed into her eyes. “Okay.”


    The registration process went on smoothly—the couple got into white shirts and snapped a picture to be used for their certificate. They then filled in a


    couple of forms and had their details verified before the workers stamped their documents and handed them their marriage certificates.


    Selena held her certificate up as she inspected it. “This doesn’t look like much, does it? Pierre, shouldn’t your marriage certificate be a little more...”


    She narrowed her eyes as her sentence came to a halt. I had to go through inspections and body checkups just to get married to a man like him


    shouldn’t his marriage certificate be a little more unique?


    “You idiot. Are you hoping for me to get exposed? Why should I even bother to conceal my identity if I''m going to own a marriage certificate that is


    different from the regr person’s?” he hissed.Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "That''s true!” Selena chuckled


    embarrassedly. As they stepped out


    of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Selena

    In theblink of an eye, she had_*


    thrown his marriage certificate into


    thé trash. Once she aplished


    her task, she began to cadékle as she


    stood in the rain. “Hah, Pierre! You''ll


    never be able to get a divorce with


    me now that you don''t have your


    marriage certificate!” Content

    He froze for a few seconds before he finally shouted. “Are you an idiot, Selena? Don’t you know that we''ll be required to present our marriage


    certificates for certain procedures in the future? There are things that we won''t be able to do without our certificates.”


    She was dumbfounded. “What should we do now?”


    "Find the certificates!” Both of them


    rushed over to the trash. It was a

    had odd-colored smears when they


    finally managed to find them. The


    papers also had a foul odor. “Selena!

    resist the urge to throw her into the

    Ajthough the workers were-unhappy


    about it, they still providéd them a

    disrespectful toward your own

    It was no longer raining the second time they stepped out of the bureau. However, the skies had turned dark earlier as it had been cloudy the entire


    day. The couple''s task to obtain their marriage certificates had finallye to an end as they sat in the car with their marriage certificates. Selena


    held her new certificate up before she abruptly broke into a fit ofughter.
