Chapter 003: Fate of Making Mistakes

Elizabeth looked helpless: "...Mom, I feel even more wronged than Dou E. My phone has always been connected normally, no one has ever called me, how could it be that the call is not connected? Besides, I have already met him."

"Elizabeth, do you think you can just talk nonsense and make up lies to deceive your mother when you are out there? Mr. Mu has been waiting for you for most of the day but he didn't see you. Which Mr. Mu did you meet?" Mrs. Smith asked angrily.

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, and responded cautiously: "Mom, are you telling the truth? My blind date is still waiting for me in the cafe of Guangcheng Hotel?"

" Of course it's true!" Mrs. Smith was almost mad. This little girl was obsessed with her orchard, and she had gone on countless blind dates without any result. Today, she stood him up, and the matchmaker was angry and said that he didn't want to help Elizabeth find a boyfriend in the future. She said a lot of good things on the phone, and barely calmed the matchmaker's anger.

"No, Mom, I really met William, it's true. I had a good impression of him, and we hit it off right away. We got the marriage certificate half an hour ago. Mom, your little daughter is finally married, and you don't have to urge her to get married anymore." Elizabeth said.

Mrs. Smith : “…”

“ Also, Mom, you can’t trust the matchmaker’s words. They said William was an only child, but he actually had a younger brother; they said he was only 28 years old, but he was actually 31 years old. Moreover, he adopted a pair of children from his deceased friend. Those two children are four years old this year and are very cute. I fell in love with them at first sight.”

"Although we can't believe everything the matchmaker says, I think one thing is true, that is, William is really honest and kind-hearted. He is still unmarried, but he was willing to adopt a pair of children from his deceased friend and raise them as his own children, and has been raising them until they are four years old." Elizabeth added.

Mrs. Smith: “…”

My daughter got married suddenly!

It’s true that the person I married suddenly was called William, but why did the information not match?

What on earth is going on? Mrs. Smith 's brain short-circuited for a moment, and she couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. After a long time, she finally found her tongue and asked, "Qingqing, have you really got the marriage certificate? Send the photo of the marriage certificate to mom. Also, where are you now?"

"I'm at the optician's shop getting a pair of glasses. My current pair of glasses was broken in front of the entrance of Guangzhou Hotel, so I need to get a new pair," Elizabeth explained.

"You didn't wear glasses when you went on a blind date?" Mrs. Smith asked.

"My glasses are broken." Elizabeth said helplessly.

"Elizabeth, send me a photo of the marriage certificate right now!" Mrs. Smith said anxiously. Her daughter was extremely nearsighted and could not even recognize her mother without her glasses. She seriously suspected that her daughter had made a wrong marriage! Elizabeth heard the urgency in her mother's words, and when she thought about what the blind date and the matchmaker said, she finally realized that something was wrong. She quickly took out the marriage certificate from her trouser pocket, flipped it open and took a closer look. The man's name was indeed William .

She used the camera function of her mobile phone to take a picture of the marriage certificate and sent it to her mother via WeChat.

In less than a minute, my mother's phone bombardment came again.

"Elizabeth, why didn't you ask clearly? Is this Mu Changfeng? His name is William, with the same pronunciation but different characters! I told you to bring his photo, but you ignored it and forgot to bring it. Now you've got the wrong date! This man is not your blind date!" Mrs. Smith said anxiously.

Elizabeth : "..."

No way? She kissed the wrong person? But he is really William .

Mrs. Smith explained that the real blind date was named Mu Changfeng, not William, because they were homophones with different characters. Elizabeth was immediately confused.

What to do now?

I have received all the certificates.

Elizabeth was panicked for a few minutes, but then she calmed down and said to her mother, "Mom, it doesn't matter who you marry. Although William is a little older, I met him on a blind date, and I just like him as a person."

Mrs. Smith was speechless.

Judging from the photo on the marriage certificate, her newly-minted son-in-law is indeed several times more handsome than Mu Changfeng. Standing next to her daughter, they look particularly well matched, without any sense of disobedience. It's just that the man's eyes are too sharp and deep, and it's obvious that he is not someone to be trifled with.

" Do you know what he does?" Mrs. Smith asked.

"He works on a construction site. Didn't you see that he was wearing worker's clothes on the marriage certificate?" Elizabeth responded.

Mrs. Smith took a careful look and saw that he was indeed wearing worker's clothes. But she felt that this son-in-law did not look like someone who moved bricks at a construction site.

"Isn't he with you now?" Mrs. Smith asked again.

"No, we separated right after we left the Civil Affairs Bureau. I need to get new glasses and buy fertilizer later, so I don't want to take him with me." Elizabeth explained.

Mrs. Smith : “…”

“ You silly girl, you are so bold! You dare to marry someone without knowing him clearly! You didn’t even find out his family background before you married him! What if you marry a gangster? You will cry! He has two burdens with him, and you will be a stepmother once you marry him!” Mrs. Smith scolded.

Elizabeth responded coldly: "Didn't mom always say that if I could get married, our dog would roll on the ground with laughter? She keeps urging my dad to get married all day long, which makes me sick, as if I'm a 37-year-old old aunt."

" It's rare to see someone I like, so I might as well make a quick decision to save you from urging me in the future, rolling your eyes at me, and scolding me, as if I'm a disgrace to your ancestors if I'm not married at the age of 27."

"Don't worry, your newly-minted son-in-law is definitely not a gangster. He is an honest and kind-hearted man who works as a bricklayer at a construction site! What's wrong with being a stepmother? It's so much easier. You can be a mother without having to give birth to a child yourself." Elizabeth continued.

"Mom, I'm busy now. Go make a cup of chrysanthemum tea to cool you down." Elizabeth hung up the phone first to avoid her mother's criticism.

It was they who urged her to get married. When she got married, they scolded her for being blind and stupid and marrying anyone. Her blind date was originally based on marriage. She fell in love at first sight and got the marriage certificate directly. How much easier it was. Anyway, her life event was resolved, and she could take care of her orchard in peace in the future.

Now it is summer, the time when lychees and mangoes are on the market in large quantities. She has to quickly buy fertilizers and go back to pick the fruits with the workers, and then contact the fruit merchants to go to her orchard to collect the goods.

On the other side, the 68-story office building of the Moore Family Group stood in the most prosperous city center of Guangzhou. Although it was not the tallest building, it was a place that countless elites dreamed of entering.

In the CEO's office on the top floor, William walked out of the lounge, having changed out of his workman's clothes and replaced them with a black suit. He sat down on a black swivel chair, thinking of his flash-married wife, and took out his phone to call his chief assistant Oliver. After Oliver answered the phone, he said in a deep voice: "Ouyang, help me investigate someone..."
