Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jin Nian did not have any experience in getting a marriage certificate. When she was preparing to get married to Jiang Qingchi, she roughly understood the process of getting a marriage certificate, so she knew that she needed to bring her household registration book in addition to her identity card. She had originally planned to find a good day to register her marriage with Jiang Qingchi during this period of time, and put the matter of the banquet aside since there was no hurry. However, Jiang Qingchi was too busy, and the matter of getting married could only be delayed.

Now that she thought about it, her feelings were still a little complicated.

“Should I put makeup on?” Jin Nian whispered to Lu An, and a hint of timidity flashed across her eyes.

Lu An stared at her, “No need. You’re already very beautiful without makeup.” She looked good no matter what she looked like.

Jin Nian felt that Lu An’s words were sarcastic. There were many beautiful women in Lu An’s circle. The girlfriends of those young masters were either famous models or popular celebrities who debuted in the center position of talent shows.

Although Jin Nian was not good at maintaining relationships, she was smart in other aspects. Previously, when Lu An went out to play, he would often bring her along. He would ski, sail, play golf, and play tennis. Jin Nian would follow him like a stalker. Usually, Lu An would have rich second-generation friends around him. They were all introduced to him through his mother. Because of Lu An, those people took good care of Jin Nian.

Lu An had been abroad all these years, and his former friends often made it to the top of the news. As they grew older, their fun seemed to have changed from sports to playing with feelings.

Jin Nian had not seen those people for a long time. Ever since she and Lu An went to different places to study, their lives had never crossed paths again, not to mention that he had left the country later. Because of Lu An, Jin Nian would read the daily life shared by the international students on Weibo from time to time. Over time, she learned that the life of international students was much more lively than that of university students in China. Due to the influence of their environment, their attitude towards relationships was more relaxed and natural, including their sex life.

Therefore, Jin Nian’s first impression was that someone with Lu An’s qualifications probably would not have any relationship gaps overseas these years. However, this was his own private matter, and she had no right to comment.

Jin Nian knew very well that with her status, if it was not for the fact that she was Lu An’s childhood friend, she would not have had the chance to come into contact with those people in the upper-class circle, and no one would have given her a second look.

Today was a special day, so she wanted to be more exquisite. Jin Nian would be more confident after putting on makeup.

Jin Nian’s skin was fair and flawless. She looked like a harmless and obedient girl without makeup, but she looked more exquisite with some makeup on.

She remembered that when she was in high school, many girls had already started to secretly put on makeup. At that time, although everyone wore the same school uniform, there were always people who could make the loose school uniform more exquisite. Jin Nian was no exception. On weekends, she would go to the mall with her female classmates to secretly buy cosmetics.

When she first started learning how to put on makeup, she did not care how heavy her hands were. She felt that the thicker the makeup, the more beautiful she would be. She often made herself look like a female ghost. Her face was so pale, and her lips were so red, it was as if they were soaked in blood. Jin Nian cried to Lu An that she was like a clown, but Lu An did not mock at her. Later, when Lu An came back from Hong Kong after the summer vacation, he carried back a bag full of luxurious makeup and skincare products for her.

It was when she was in her freshman year of university that she learned how to apply makeup from a senior from the art department. When Lu An came to school to visit her next semester, he stared at her for a long time. Jin Nian felt uncomfortable under his stare. She touched her face and asked: “Is my makeup very strange?”

“No, you’re very good-looking.” Lu An shook his head.

Jin Nian’s neck turned red all of a sudden. That was the first time she was shy in front of Lu An. She said shyly: “You have good taste.”

As time passed, Jin Nian no longer had the confidence she had in the past. Ever since she got together with Jiang Qingchi, the words she heard the most were: “Jin Nian, shouldn’t a girl your age like to dress up? Why are you different?” “Jin Nian, my colleagues are having dinner today. They are all dressed up beautifully. If you looked more beautiful, I will have more face.”

“Jin Nian, I’ve seen too many girls who are prettier than you, but none of them are as kind or cute as you. That’s why I chose you.”

After being together with Jiang Qingchi for a few years, Jin Nian had slowly turned from a lively and cheerful little sun into a taciturn person. As his career got better and better, there were more and more outstanding people around him. She always felt that she was dragging him down..
