Luo Lis 18th Birthday:
When Luo Li turned 18, Chen Heng organized a birthday gathering for her. Well, it was more of a birthday party with just the two of them.
It was not that Luo Li and Chen Heng had poor social skills and were utterly incapable of making friends; rather, it was Luo Lis specific request. She made it clear to Chen Heng before her 18th birthday that she didnt want anyone else around, just like on her 17th birthday. Back then, her relationships with others werent that great, and she preferred it to be only her and Chen Heng. At that ti, Luo Li had been rescued by the Special Affairs Bureau, or more accurately, by Chen Heng, just three months before. Aside from Chen Heng, she didnt really care much for anyone, including Mo Qingtongor especially Mo Qingtong.
Even when Luo Li turned 18, she and Mo Qingtong didnt get along at all.
Elder Brother, will you ever leave ? After blowing out the candles on her birthday cake, Luo Li suddenly asked this question out of the blue at what should have been a joyous mont.
What are you thinking? Silly, how could I ever leave you? Chen Heng thought Luo Li might be recalling the hellish tis she went through over a year ago, so he comfortingly patted her head.
But, Elder Brother, youll definitely get married soday, wont you? Luo Li moved Chen Hengs hand away as he playfully ruffled her hair and looked up at him.
Isnt that obvious? Im the last of the Chen Clan. How can I not get married?
But what if your future wife minds having around?
She probably wont mind, especially since Little Lis so cute. Chen Heng didnt say this with absolute certainty because, well, he couldnt predict who his future wife would be.
But, Elder Brother, what if your future wife is Mo Qingtong?
Thiscan I say shes a good person? Chen Heng was so familiar with Mo Qingtong that he was sowhat immune to her charm. Luo Lis sudden question left him unsure of how to respond.
Even though Mo Qingtong appeared perfect, have you heard of beauties scratching and picking at their feet? Chen Heng had seen it.
Well, Elder Brother, what do you think of ?
Hah?! You? Youre just a kid who hasnt even co of age yet. Whats this talk of marriage? Lets discuss it when youre older!
You said it, Elder Brother. No going back.
Huh? What did I say?
Well get married when Im of age.
Huh? I didnt say that, did I?
Elder Brother, am I pretty?
Well, yes, youre beautiful! Chen Heng couldnt help but admit Luo Li was indeed very attractive. He genuinely couldnt lie about this. He liked Luo Lis white hair a lot and often found himself playing with it like he was doing now. Then he placed his hand back on her head.
Elder Brother, do you like ?
Of course, Luo Li, youre so cute, you could rival a 2D character. After saying this, Chen Heng couldnt resist playfully rubbing Luo Lis face.
Then its settled.
ErmLittle Li, are you perhaps misunderstanding the concept of marriage? Let explain it to you
Elder Brother, today is my birthday, and you promised to listen to .
Alright, alright, Ill listen to you. Are you satisfied now? So, shall we cut the cake? I heard the cakes here are delicious. At that ti, Chen Heng didnt really take this matter to heart. He was just indulging Luo Li, like appeasing a child, and truth be told, he was looking forward to the cake.

Skipping back to the present:
Wait, Little Li, youre not talking about marriage, are you? It was just a joke
Yes, Im serious. Luo Li sohow produced two paper forms and handed one to Chen Heng.
Whats this? Marriage Registration Declaration Form? Little Li, where did you get this? Doesnt this require both parties to apply personally at the marriage registration office? How did you get hold of this? Chen Heng was utterly bewildered when he received the paper form and realized what it was.
He even suspected that Luo Li might have stolen these two forms from sowhere.
I bought them from the Dinsion Administrators Associations store. Theyre absolutely official. Luo Li seed to have anticipated Chen Hengs questions, calmly providing a well-prepared answer.
The Dinsion Administrators Association? This was the first ti Chen Heng felt genuine contempt for the Dinsion Administrators Association.
Before the world reset, he could treat Luo Lis feelings toward him as a joke when he celebrated her birthday. He could consider her words as those of an immature mind. But now, he couldnt. Luo Li had detonated her ti core to save him. He couldnt ignore her feelings anymore.
Honestly, Luo Li seed like a suitable girlfriend or even a marriage partner. She was obedient, good-looking, and very amiable, maybe not to others, but definitely to Chen Heng. Moreover, for so reason, his ancestor really liked Luo Li, which saved him the hassle of introducing her to his family.
For so reason, Chen Heng increasingly felt that Luo Li was indeed a suitable match.
Yes, I bought these forms from the Dinsion Administrators Associations store. They are official docunts with legal validity, Luo Li affird her previous answer.
But, Little Li, have you forgotten sothing? As Chen Heng began to be convinced himself, he suddenly rembered sothing while looking at Luo Li.
What is it?
Sothing very important.
Huh?
Chen Heng looked at Luo Lis puzzled expression and had to resist the urge to laugh. This wasnt the ti to burst into laughter.
Luo Li had indeed prepared ticulously and chosen the perfect montcoinciding with Chen Heng regaining his moriesand her act of detonating her ti core to reset the world deeply moved Chen Heng. She even had the marriage registration form ready in advance. However, Luo Li had genuinely forgotten sothing crucial.
This was typical of her in the past, occasionally being a bit scatterbrained; it was one of her quirks.
How old are you this year, Little Li? After all, Luo Li was still a child, in Chen Hengs eyes and in the eyes of the world, so he couldnt bring himself to agree to this.
I have to endure. I must endure. I absolutely cannot laugh now. Otherwise, Luo Li will give a good thrashing.
How old? A girls age is a secret, you know. But Im already an adult Luo Li stopped speaking midway. Then, she vigorously crumpled the marriage registration declaration form in her hand into a ball.
