Chapter 2: Registration
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
She was so scared that she hurriedly went to find a doctor to treat the male lead. Fortunately, the male lead's brain was not damaged.
However, he had engraved the pain that the male lead had suffered at the hands of the original female lead in his heart!
Bai Jinyao sighed and became worried about her future.
"Host, your mission is to protect your life and not be killed by the male lead. It's still not too late. As long as you treat the male lead well, he will definitely not kill you!"
The system's mechanical voice sounded in Bai Jinyao's mind.
"Okay, then I'll give it a try. I'll try to please the male lead while he's sick, and when he's better, I'll let him go!"
She'd want any other man than him!
Bai Jinyao had just finished speaking to the system in her heart when someone knocked on the door.
"Is anyone home?"
"Coming. Coming!"
Bai Jinyao responded loudly and quickly went to open the courtyard door.
There were two soldiers standing at the door.
When they saw Bai Jinyao's fat body, her chubby chin, and the red and black acne and marks on her chubby face, a look of disgust flashed in their eyes.
"Manager Bai, we heard that you got married a few days ago. We're here today to register your husband."
When Bai Jinyao heard what the two soldiers said, she immediately recalled the situation in the original book.
In the original book, there were indeed soldiers who came to register Luo Xichu's information. At that time, the original female lead had just randomly given Luo Xichu a name.
She remembered he seemed to be called Doggy or something.
She thought if she also gave the crown prince such a cheap name, Luo Xichu would probably kill her as soon as he recovered!
In the end, after careful consideration, Bai Jinyao came up with a name for Luo Xichu.
"Sirs, my husband's name is Jiang Tieniu. He came from the backwoods."
"From the backwoods? Did he live in the mountains? How many people are there in his family? Do they own any houses or land?"
The officer held a brush in his hand and wrote and drew on the papyrus.
"He's the only one left in his family. His family members are gone. He came out of the mountains because he was the only one left.
In the end, he fell down on the mountain and I picked him up. Tieniu said he wanted to repay me for saving his life.
As a matter of fact, he's willing to become my live-in husband and marry me. "
Bai Jinyao's mouth moved calmly as she spoke as if she was speaking the truth.
"I see. Alright, we'll take note of this. Then, Manager Bai, you don't have to pay the single tax this year. Goodbye."
"Why is this fat woman so reasonable today? it's like she's a different person."
The two soldiers turned around and left. Bai Jinyao happened to hear what they were whispering about.
Bai Jinyao was speechless.
Bai Jinyao lowered her head and looked at the few layers of fat on her waist. She then closed the door silently.
At the very least, he had managed to fool the officials.
But when Bai Jinyao turned around and met Mrs. Bai's puzzled eyes, her heart skipped a beat.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
"Yaoyao, when you brought that man back home that day, you said that you bought that man from Xinghua Village and that his name is Doggy.
Why did he suddenly become the Jiang Tieniu that you picked up from the backwoods?"
Mrs. Bai's tone was full of doubt and confusion.
Bai Jinyao started to feel anxious again.
In the original book, the female lead did say this to Mrs. Bai when she carried Luo Xichu back.
But she had actually forgotten about this!
Bai Jinyao braced herself and explained, "Mother, I said that on purpose. You know how the government doesn't allow human trafficking, right?"
If I told them the truth, what if they have me arrested?"
