Ice and Fire novel Chapter 6

The next day, when Cherry Shen reached the café, she saw that Jackson Chu was already sitting at the same table. She walked over to him.

Sitting down, Cherry Shen took her household register and ID card out of the bag, and gave them to him.

Jackson Chu took the household register and ID card and said, "It will probably take a week or so for the military to approve our marriage."

"It's okay. I can wait." said Cherry Shen. She waved her hand indifferently. It appeared as if she did not care about this marriage.

Cherry Shen's indifference enraged Jackson Chu. He was angry that the woman was ignoring him and their marriage.

Cherry Shen did not want to stay here any longer. She had come here only to hand over the household register and ID card.

"Then I am leaving. I have something else to do." said Cherry Shen. With these words, she stood up and was about to leave.

Seeing her leave, Jackson Chu immediately stood up, grabbed her arm and pinned her against the wall. He looked at her closely and she could feel his breath.

"Why do you want to marry me if you don't love me?" said Jackson Chu coldly, with a hint of arrogance. He did not know why he cared about her feelings. He wondered whether she still loved his nephew.

Cherry Shen looked calmly at him and asked, "Do you love me?"

Her question surprised Jackson Chu. His heart ached. Love?

Cherry Shen smiled and continued, "Why bother asking this question if we do not love each other?"

"You'll be my wife." said Jackson Chu firmly. For him, a wife was someone who would be with him for the rest of his life.

"Since it is only a marriage of convenience, does the title of wife really matter?" said Cherry Shen, flatly.

"Cherry Shen!" Jackson was irritated by this woman. Why was her heart so cold? Why was she so indifferent to him?

Cherry Shen suddenly remembered something. She said, "Well, Mr. Chu, I have to tell you that I'm not a virgin. If you mind it, we can only nominally be a couple."

Recalling the night she lost her virginity, Jackson Chu's anger diminished a bit. It was clear that she did not know he was the one who had taken her virginity. Jackson Chu could remember that night clearly. If they weren't in the coffee shop, he would have done it again.

Jackson Chu looked at Cherry Shen and firmly insisted, "You have to be faithful to me, now that you want to marry me."

'Cherry Shen, I'm your first man and will be the only man in your life.' thought Jackson Chu.

Having obtained the marriage certificate, Jackson Chu and Cherry Shen planned to meet their parents. They would first visit the Shen's house and then Chu's house.

In Shen's house, when Harrison Shen learned that Jackson Chu was the grandson of Andrew Chu, who was highly influential in the army, he was pleased with the marriage. Chu Clan had a powerful influence on the entire city, and Harrison Shen believed that it would help the growth of the Shen Group.

Jackson Chu and Cherry Shen stood in front of Harrison Shen and Jade Qiao. Jean Shen stood by the side. She was looking at Jackson Chu.

Sensing the heavy atmosphere, Jackson Chu said nothing. He had already investigated Shen Clan, and knew about Cherry Shen's status in it.

Looking at Jackson Chu, who was in military uniform and looked as gentlemanly as John Ye, Jade Qiao suddenly felt envious of Cherry Shen. 'Why is this bitch always so lucky?' thought Jade Qiao.

"Dad, aunt, this is Jackson Chu." Cherry Shen spoke up and broke the awkward silence.
