In the evening at the main house.

Jennie was awoken by a heavy pressure that was tossing and turning on top of him.

Jennie and Lisa opened their eyes at the same time. Her frown changed to a smile after she saw his face.

“Did you have a nightmare?” Jennie asked.

Jennie helped Lisa find a more comfortable position to lay on his chest.

“I dreamt Jennie was angry at me and left me,” Lisa said. “Jennie, don’t be angry. I promise I won’t play all the time.”

“Ok, I won’t be angry,” Jennie said.

Jennie remembered he didn’t think about risks when he saved Lisa. He couldn’t believe he loved seeing Lisa smile more each day.

“I need to grow up faster,” Lisa said. “I want to marry Jennie.”

Jennie was happy to hear Lisa wanted to marry him. “Why do you want to marry me?”

“Because I love Jennie,” Lisa said. "Hanbin said sooner or later Jennie will get married. After Jennie is married, Jennie won’t love me anymore. I want Jennie to love me forever so I want to be Jennie’s wife.”

Jennie smiled. “If you want to marry me, you don’t need to wait. You can marry me now.”

“Really?” Lisa asked.

“Of course,” Jennie said.

Jennie raised Lisa’s chin and he looked into her eyes.

“Promise you won’t regret it?” Jennie asked.

Jennie knew he wanted to lie to himself that Lisa would make an informed decision.

Lisa didn’t know what Jennie’s words meant but she nodded her head.

“I promise,” Lisa said.

Jennie didn’t care about his unhealed wound. He stood, held Lisa’s hand and they left their room together.

Hanbin was guarding outside the room. “Boss, where do you want to go?”

"to register a marriage,” Jennie said.

“Boss, you shouldn’t go outside,” Hanbin said. “Your wound will take longer to heal. You don’t need to leave the house to register a marriage.”

“Ok, I’ll give you an hour to prepare the wedding ceremony,” Jennie said.

“Yes boss,” Hanbin said.

An hour later a frightened registered celebrant arrived at the main house.

“I need the bride and groom to provide proof of their identities and the completed marriage registration form-” the celebrant said.

“How is boss supposed to give you everything you requested now?” Jackson asked. “You only need to perform the ceremony and witness boss and Miss Lisa sign the marriage registration form.”

The celebrant didn’t dare open his mouth. It was them who asked him to perform a proper wedding ceremony. He wisely pulled out a blank authorised marriage registration form.

“If the bride and groom are willing to register their marriage then sign at the bottom of this form,” the celebrant said.

Jennie quickly signed the form while Lisa pointed at the form.

“Do I only need to sign?” Lisa asked.

The celebrant thought Lisa was tricked into marrying Jennie. But Jackson gave him a warning look and he didn’t dare voice his concerns.

Hanbin opened a box of a pair of wedding rings. The celebrant was envious of the wedding rings. Even though the ring designs were simple, but they were expensive rings and it was his girlfriend’s favorite design. He would buy the same rings when he married his girlfriend if he could afford the rings.

Jennie put the ring on Lisa’s ring finger.

“Why do I need to wear this ring?” Lisa asked.

“You’re not allowed to take it off.” Jennie said.

“Oh, if we wear matching rings, does it mean Jennie is my man?” Lisa asked.

Lisa mimicked Jennie’s actions, she put the other ring on his finger.

Jennie kissed the top of Lisa’s head.

"that’s right, I’m your man,” Jennie said.

Lisa was satisfied with Jennie’s answer and she smiled.

The celebrant was certain either the child bride had low IQ or she was tricked into marrying Jennie.

After the celebrant officiated the wedding ceremony, Hanbin presented the celebrant a box of a wedding cup cake.

“You”ve worked hard and earned this,” Hanbin joked.

“It’s ok, no need for gifts,” the celebrant said.

The celebrant didn’t dare to eat anything given by anyone related to the groom.

“You don’t need to be courteous, take it,” Hanbin said.

“It’s ok, I don’t need any gifts,” the celebrant said.

Hanbin thought the celebrant’s refusal was rude.

“Our boss always follow protocols,” Hanbin said. “He asked me to prepare the wedding ceremony. I brought you here to perform the wedding ceremony, bought rings and prepared wedding cupcakes for wedding guests. Everyone here hates eating sweets, but they are eating the cupcakes to celebrate boss’ wedding day. You refusing to eat the cupcake will ruin boss’ good mood.”

The celebrant didn’t want to offend the groom who looked like he was a mafia boss so he quickly accepted the box.

“Of course I want to eat,” the celebrant lied. “I wish eternal happiness for the newlyweds.”

"thank you for wishing boss a happy marriage,” Hanbin said. “Let me ask a driver to drive you home.”

“It’s ok, everyone here is busy,” the celebrant said. “I don’t want to inconvenience anyone. I’ll make my own way home.”

The celebrant didn’t dare have a mafia mobster drive him home.

“If you’re adamant then I won’t insist,” Hanbin said.

Outside the main house, the celebrant regretted his decision. Earlier he was too frightened to notice the route to the main house. He finally noticed the remote location of the main house. It was above a high mountain and there were no cars on the private road. It would take him a few hours to walk to the foot of the mountain. He turned around to ask for a driver, but the front gates were closed and he didn’t dare to press the intercom. He had no choice left but to slowly walk down the mountain.

Inside the main house, Mina pitied the celebrant walking down the mountain.

“Did he offend you?” Mina asked Hanbin.

“It’s his fault,” Hanbin said. “He delayed performing the wedding ceremony for thirty-seconds. I almost failed to prepare the wedding ceremony within the hour boss requested. Honestly I didn’t do anything to him. Didn’t you hear he wanted to find his own way home?”

Mina laughed and Hanbin looked sincerely at her.

“Marriage looks like an ideal dream,” Hanbin said.

Mina did love Hanbin, but she didn’t want to marry and have children at a young age.

“I never thought about marrying and having children this soon,” Mina said.

“It’s ok, I don’t mind marrying into your family,” Hanbin said.

Mina stayed silent. She looked at the calm Hanbin. She knew he was a prideful man so she didn’t understand why he was willing to let go of his pride to marry her and change his family name.
