“Rent?” Zuko turned to look at her with a raised eyebrow and a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. “Didn’t we
‘get married’? Are you still collecting rent from your husband?”
“You…” Lina did not expect him to say that, and her face instantly turned red. She stared at him, unable to speak.
Zuko chuckled softly and stopped teasing her. He picked up his folding bed that was still standing outside the porch
and prepared to put it back in the corner against the wall.
As he passed by Lina, he noticed her blushing ears and even the fine hairs on her face were clearly visible. The
fragrance she naturally had wafted into his nose.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and his footsteps paused. He told her softly, “The bed… Thank you too.”
Lina raised her eyes and met his gaze. Something in the depths of his eyes seemed to run into a secret place in her
heart that no one knew about.
“Oh, by the way. I wanted to talk to you about something!” Lina suddenly remembered. “It’s about the marriage

Zuko walked into the house and drank a glass of water without saying a word.
“Zeke…” Lina licked her lips and expressed her concerns. “I asked you to come to my house as a temporary
measure. I don’t want to provoke the Grists again! But Violet said she wanted to see our marriage certificate, or
she’d come looking for trouble. It might have been a whim on her part, but I feel like she’s capable of doing such
things. So…”
“So you wouldn’t really want to get a marriage certificate with me, right?” he asked.
“Of course not!” Lina denied it immediately.
A slightly playful smile appeared at the corner of Zuko’s mouth.
“I just… I just wanted to discuss it with you.” Lina lowered her voice and said, “Can you stay at the store for the next
few days? I’m afraid Violet won’t let it go and might send someone to cause trouble at the store.”
Zuko fell silent for a moment, understanding her intention. She wanted him to act as the door guardian at home
and the store.
Zuko smirked lightly, took out two clean garments from his bag, and walked into the bathroom without saying a
word.
A while later, the sound of flowing water came from the inside, and Lina paced back and forth outside, not knowing
whether to stay or leave. She glared at the bathroom door.
‘This fellow is such a weirdo! Would it kill to speak a little more?’
He had not said if he agreed or not either. Everything he said felt as if according to his mood.
Lina breathed out. It seemed that she had to resolve this herself.
After a while, the sound of flowing water ceased, and Zuko emerged from the bathroom clad in a fresh T-shirt and
shorts. He dried his hair with a towel as he walked, his long legs drawing attention, and a subtle hint of shower gel
lingered in the air around him.
“Hey…” Lina did not get to finish what she said when Zuko left the house without even looking back.

Lina crossed her arms in front of her chest, rolled her eyes at his back, and slammed the door shut.
Zuko did not show up for the whole day, and it was not until after the small supermarket closed in the evening that
he knocked on the door and returned to the Jenners.
The whole family gathered for dinner, and Dave kindly grabbed a chair. He was about to go and fetch the cutlery
for Zuko, but the latter stopped him. “No need.”
“Huh?” Dave was startled for a moment and jokingly said, “So, the door guardian really doesn’t need to eat?”
Lina gave him a look.
Zuko did not care about what Dave said. He glanced at Lina, took two folded documents out of his pocket, and
placed them on the table.
“What’s this?” Dave curiously picked up the two folded documents, and his eyes almost popped out of his head.
“Marriage certificates!?”
Jesse and Melissa were also stunned, looking at Zuko with confusion.
Lina was taken aback, her heart pounding.
‘He… actually got the marriage certificates!?’
