Chapter 926: 926
Pei Ge paused a little when she saw him looking at her with a burning gaze, but she quickly recovered when she recalled something and laughed aloud .

“Pfft!”
Ji Ziming raised an eyebrow in confusion when she suddenly started laughing .
“Why are you laughing?”
“Ha ha! I just find your words quite funny,” admitted the woman to him between laughter .
The two mothers sitting at the side gave the couple some much-needed privacy when they saw how intimate the two were acting .
The man walked over and sat in the chair next to his fiancée the moment their mothers went away .
“Which words do you find funny?”
He held the woman’s palm and gently played around it .
“Ziming, did you forget?”
She blinked and looked at him with a smile when she heard his question .
“Hm?”
He raised a brow, his eyes full of confusion .

“Forgot about what?”
Seeing that the man seemed to have really forgotten, she could not help but roll her eyes .
“How could you have forgotten something so important? Do you really like me?”
She pouted . Her face was full of discontentment .
“… What important matter?”
After pondering on it for a while, he still could not fathom what this woman was speaking about .
“Aiya! You really did forget!” She huffed angrily when the man failed to recall the matter .
“How could you have forgotten something as important as us registering our marriage?!” she exclaimed gloomily . Thankfully, their parents had already left the garden, so her shocking words were not heard by the three .
“…” Alas, right after she said that, the man involved in this marriage registration was stunned speechless .
“Hey! Even though we’re not in a relationship then, we did register our marriage you know?” She glanced at the stunned man . “That’s why we’re technically husband and wife a long time ago!”
The man returned to his senses only after she finished speaking .
He took a deep breath and looked at her with a complex gaze . His expression was hesitant and uncertain, a rare occurrence on his face .

She looked at him in confusion when he showed a hesitant expression . “Why? What’s with your reaction Ziming? Did I say something wrong, or did you eat something wrong?”
“Pei Ge, I want to…” Confess something to you .
He took a deep breath, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by someone .
“Young master, madam and master have requested for the presence of you and Miss Pei . They have something to announce . ”
Pei Ge blinked when she heard Sister Yun’s words and then grabbed the man’s hand before she stood up from the stool .
“Ziming, let’s hurry over . Mom and dad must have something to tell us . ”
She then hurriedly pulled him out of garden, thus effectively ruining his chance to come clean to her .
“Mhm . ”
As such, he could only swallow his words of confession down and trailed after her .
The pair held hands and gradually disappeared from the garden .
What had gone unnoticed to the pair was that Sister Yun, who had come to get them, did not return with them .
Instead, she… stayed in that place .

After making sure that no one was around, she lowered her face and took out her phone from her apron .
Swiftly and deftly, she dialed Qiao Jingyun’s number .
“Hello, Miss Qiao . ” She quickly addressed the woman when the call got through .
“En, did something happen?” asked the woman on the other end sweetly .
Listening to her sweet voice, Sister Yun’s heart softened, as did her facial expression .
“I seemed to have overheard a big news . ”
“Oh? A big news? What news? Does it have something to do with that woman?”
Qiao Jingyun was originally unbothered by this call, but when she heard the woman’s recount, she was completely stunned .
“I heard Miss Pei say that she’s already married to young master before they got in a relationship . ” The older lady promptly repeated what she had heard earlier .
She was stunned at this news .
“Married to Pei Ge before their relationship?”
“Yes, that’s what I heard her say to young master . ”
“How can that be… He’s not the type to do that! Both his parents are still around; he’s not the kind to just go off and marry someone…”
Despite the other’s sincere account, she found it hard to believe .
“Actually, what bothered me was the young master’s expression when he said that . He was hesitant and seemed to be wanting to say something to that woman . ”
“What did he say exactly?” she asked urgently .
“I don’t know; I wasn’t paying attention and interrupted their conversation before the young master could finish, but from the young master’s manner, he was probably trying to apologize to that woman . ”
Apologize?!
Married?!
Married before they got in a relationship!
Registered their marriage…
For some reason, a term popped up in Qiao Jingyun’s mind .
Fake marriage!
Yes! It must be a fake marriage . He’s not the type to get married behind his family’s back, so what he wanted to say then was…
The marriage certificate is fake!
