Lina felt like she should say something but did not know what to say. Every time she thought about Ziuko, her heart

felt like it was being gnawed at by ants, causing unbearable pain.

However, if Ziko had not been there, she would have had a hard time dealing with it alone. Lina bit her lip, and in

her mind, these words flashed like lightning—three days, marriage certificate, smashing the store.

She took a deep breath, and a bold thought emerged.

“Z-Zeke,” she tried calling his name, “Your name is Zeke, right?”

Zuko’s back stiffened, and he paused in arranging the shelves. Even though he was facing away from her, he could

still sense her trembling.

“Zeke, how about… we stay together?” she asked.

“What?” Zuko’s tone changed as he turned around abruptly, his deep gaze fixed on her.

What nonsense was this girl saying!?

He had only helped out a little when he saw an injustice. Was he being repaid with ingratitude? Was she going to

cling to him for the rest of her life?

Lina noticed his change in expression. Her face reddened as she hurriedly explained, “Zeke, don’t worry. I’m not

saying we should get married! I’m just saying, let’s live together…”

The bottle of drink in Zuko’s hand dropped to the ground with a thud.

“Ah, not that kind of living together!” Lina’s head ached, and her words became incoherent. She could not explain it

clearly. She just wanted to use Zeke as part of her strategy to temporarily defuse the situation.

The first step was to prevent Violet from constantly vandalizing the store. Since Violet wanted her to marry Zeke to

humiliate her, she would go along with it! She was willing to do anything as long as she could protect her family’s

small supermarket. Also, when she hid behind him just now, she felt an unparalleled sense of safety.

“Zeke, listen to me…

“From the looks of it, Violet won’t let me off if I don’t find someone to marry. I’m afraid she’ll involve my parents.

They are getting older and have invested their lifelong savings in this small store. I can’t let them lose everything.”

Zuko’s pace in arranging the shelves slowed down, and he fell silent for a while before squeezing out a few words in

a low voice. “Isn’t getting married like this too hasty?”

“N-Not a real marriage!” Lina’s face grew even redder. “It’s just… I want to use you to deceive Violet.”

Lina froze. She looked up and met Zuko’s oppressive gaze, which caused her heartbeat to quicken involuntarily.

Zuko thought she was about to say, “If you’re not willing, then forget it.”

Little did he know that she persevered and analyzed everything with a clear head.

“You helped me today by fighting against Violet, so you won’t be able to stay in the Grist Group anymore. How will

you support yourself when you don’t have a job?

“It’d be better for you to come and live with me. At least I can guarantee three meals a day and provide shelter!”

Lina became more respectful. “Zeke… Mr. Hamerton, as long as you can help me get through this difficult situation,

I… I will definitely not treat you unfairly!”

Zuko’s facial expression didn’t change. He looked around the small supermarket, which was no more than 70-

something square meters, packed with shelves filled to the brim with not-so-high-end products.

In his eyes, this kind of place was not worth much.

However, in this young woman’s eyes, it seemed like a priceless treasure, something she would sacrifice everything

for.

Zuko remained silent for a long time. Lina thought there was no hope and awkwardly smiled.

In an instant, she turned around, though, the person behind her suddenly asked, “If we are going to live together, at

least tell me your name, right?”
