Floating Civil Affairs Bureau. z3ZtTD

The small civil servant who dealt with civil affairs squeaked and was almost shocked into falling off his chair.

Wu Jin was still reading the license rules carefully, his small round face serious beneath the mask.

Wei Shi had read it through countless times long ago and led Wu Jin directly to the window. q8SbZB

 

A probe swept over the two people’s terminals.

The small civil servant trembled, “Hi, hello, what kind of oath are you filing for…”

There were more than 4000 options in <Floating City’s Marriage Certificate Handling Manual> that included details for single spouse marriages, group marriages, open marriages, pairing marriages, and even walking marriages.

xNoUZ1

 

Wu Jin had only read up to option 144.

Wei Shi: “2798.”

The small civil servant quickly flipped through and found it, “Okay! It’s a single spouse marriage. Will both parties please sign.” e5bgiO

 

Wei Shi’s signature was like dragons and phoenixes dancing, while Wu Jin quickly added his round and chubby signature behind it. The start of the word ‘Wu’ and the end of the word ‘Shi’ were hooked together softly.

 

The small civil servant continued reading, “The oath is sworn with material evidence that represents the contract… Two sirs, did you bring the required bullet? Who will make the oath?” dTh37i

Wu Jin blankly pulled out a pocket full of bullets.

Wei Shi instructed, “Pick one.”

 

Wu Jin stretched out his hand and chose the first bullet in the big boss’s life, the one with the prefabricated shrapnel. QnBa9T

Wei Shi nodded and handed it to the civil servant, “I’m the one taking the oath.”

The small civil servant’s eyes were stunned, then filled with reverence. He handed a red form to Wei Shi, “Please sign the oath. When you’re done, it will be deemed complete, and the contract will be legally protected by the law.”

  PEKlps

Wei Shi nodded.

The civil servant had already quickly filled in the bullet number, caliber size, and production information before returning it to Wu Jin on a velvety satin cushion.

 

The signing was complete. GFtPyM

The civil servant congratulated them warmly, “Congratulations, from today on, your identity chips will always be linked together. As long as the information network that represents human civilization still exists, your marriage oath will never be erased.”

“Well then, happy new marriage.”

 

The printer automatically spat out the ‘2798 oath filing form’, two copies. 8B9aDx

Wei Shi handed it to Wu Jin.

As they left, Wu Jin was staring at the form in astonishment, “It says-says-says-says-says- says that I can…”

 

Wei Shi nodded. P2jpNz

The suspension car once again brought the two people away. Wu Jin read through the entire contract.

In the event of a marital fault by contracting party [Wei Shi] (bigamy, cohabitation with another person, domestic violence, abandonment of a family member), the partner [Wu Jin] has the right to use the recorded bullet against the contracting party and bypass civil (or criminal) procedural law …

The entire driver seat was filled with the youth’s soft scent, like the smell of a fluffy rabbit after being exposed to the sun. Wei Shi inhaled quietly, “Want a bullet?”

Wei Shi spoke in a hoarse voice, “Well, wait until tonight.”

  qAe1YU

Wu Jin’s eyes were shocked, “Wh-what!”

 

However, as soon as the two of them returned to Floating Base, Researcher Song rushed out on long strides, Arjun following behind him, “They went to get their license? Brother Wei took Little Witch and went to get a license? No way, I have to hurry and find Brother Wei––”

Researcher Song quickly blocked Wei Shi’s path. AdJU5d

Then he pulled him into a small corner.

And turned his back to Wu Jin.

 

A box of white electromagnetic test paper was quietly handed over, “Brother Wei, you’ve gotten the license, but don’t make a move yet.” krAGWn

“Little Witch, um, he’s just been discharged, and he can’t be emotionally excited. About that… his hormones can’t exceed standard levels. You have to wait until the test paper turns purple when stuck to Little Witch’s body before you can…”

Wei Shi glanced at the test paper for a long time and accepted it expressionlessly.

Researcher Song strove to resist the pressure he felt and continued, “It’ll probably take a month.” wAD9Lk

 

Wei Shi changed directions and turned around.

A piece of test paper landed with a ‘pata’ sound on the back of Wu Jin’s hand.

  uilVXO

Wu Jin: “??” Whoa, someone is sticking something to me!

The color of the test paper strip didn’t change.

 

Wei Shi took it back. xyRuTW

The two of them walked past the black cat that was acting like a salted fish on the lawn and the flamingo that was running around everywhere.

 

Wei Shi reached out again, and a piece of test paper landed with a ‘pata’ sound on the back of Wu Jin’s hand.

From behind him, Researcher Song turned to look at Arjun woodenly, “I said one month, right? There’s a difference between one month and ten minutes, right?” SgEyoh

 

The two of them arrived at the entrance to the villa.

Wei Shi went ‘pata’ with another stick of the test paper again.

Survival show trainee Wu Jin’s reactions were quick. He peeled off the test paper and smacked it down on the big boss’s hand. 6EkX0d

 

The paper turned from white to light purple, light purple to dark purple, then dark purple to black.

“!!!” Wu Jin was startled and hurriedly tugged on the big boss, wanting to head back, “Did you get sick?! The paper is purple! Should we get Researcher Song to come take a look…”

Wei Shi directly pulled Wu Jin into the room, “No need. Eat your medicine.”

Wu Jin had no choice but to gulp down the pills for that night while the big boss supervised him.

The small medicine box was closed up. Wu Jin’s eyes were sharp, “Why are there four strips of pacifiers? I only need to eat one week’s worth.”

  29D1Cy

Wu Jin’s logical reasoning kicked in very quickly, and his expression turned serious, “That’s not right, you also entered the treatment cabin. Will there be any aftereffects…”

Wei Shi spoke flatly, “No.”

Wu Jin thought about it. It wasn’t impossible that the medicine in the small medicine box was just there as backup. He immediately stopped being tangled up about it.

On Wei Shi’s terminal.

Zhou Nan had sent over another message, “Brother Wei, there’s a 50% chance that your aftereffects won’t have been cured before the start of the game. I still suggest that you tell Little Witch about it. It’s not shameful, really! Little Witch also watched you grow up… ah, that’s not right…”

Wei Shi coldly deleted the message.

On the other side, Wu Jin finished eating his pills.

He drank water while looking at the electronic marriage license on his terminal.

 

He looked at the marriage license, then went to look at Wei Shi. xSUHXb

Wu Jin let out a happy, joyful sound, “Heeheeheehee-hic.”

Wei Shi sat down beside him.

The two of them were very close together. bWyP9K

 

Wei Shi opened up the remote control terminal and tossed Wu Jin a pillow for him to hug, “What station do you want to watch.”

The lights dimmed down to an orange glow.

Wu Jin settled down delightedly next to the big boss, “Any!” XlhOYs

 

Wei Shi turned on the terminal projector.

The virtual home theater that had never been used before was still in ‘uninitialized’ mode. Using the 17 surround sound speakers had all seemed wasteful when it hadn’t really been a ‘home’.

  ef3oHu

The two of them groped around for a while before finally figuring out how to turn on the cinema mode.

Wei Shi adjusted the sofa so that they could lie flat on their backs.

The projection screen unfolded above the two of them.

<Azure Starry Sky Rabbit Raising Journal>

Dozens of dyed pink rabbit balls jumped up and down. A large farmer showed reporters how to take care of the fur of Angolan long-haired rabbits.

 

Wu Jin: “… Switch channels?” 0VWndf

Wei Shi glanced over.

Wu Jin was serious, “Rock paper scissors.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

 

Wu Jin won. qAvLpB

Ownership of the remote control changed quickly, and it was soon in Wu Jin’s hands.

The screen switched to <Floating Romance Channel 179>, a soap opera adaptation based off of a certain novel: <Life Being Married To The Floating King>.

 

In the series, the Floating King had gone from the Federation to the Empire. Because he had been away for a long time, he’d simply pulled together a chat group with his imperial concubines and princesses, all talented men and women, adding up to hundreds of people. Every morning and evening, many people would come to greet the Floating King and send him red envelopes, and the concubines would roll for the red envelopes together. BNds7T

Talent Lin: “Prince Chen’s luck is really good, he rolled 200,000 credits today, hey.”

Male protagonist: “Yesterday, the King said that I was as cute as ice and snow and actually sent me 1 million credits!”

Talent Lin’s face turned pale, “You!”

  rsJ9cd

Wei Shi: “… Switch channels.”

Wu Jin: “Ahahahahahaha, ahahahahah!!”

 

Wei Shi: “Rock paper scissors.” a64NWc

Wei Shi won.

 

The screen was finally switched over to a news channel.

Wei Shi changed his personal data in the Floating King’s ‘clean and honest publicity page’ to ‘married’ while helping Wu Jin familiarize himself with the ‘future’ that the youth was still unfamiliar with. ySJtpn

Wu Jin listened seriously, his head held up straight.

Wei Shi pulled the blanket over, “Sleep if you’re tired.”

Wu Jin closed his eyes and confirmed again, “We’ve gotten the license, right!” HAUowp

 

Wei Shi’s lips curved.

Wu Jin tossed the pillow around happily, holding onto the big boss like a koala hugging a tree, his small round face rubbing around messily.

The lights dimmed. X2ysET

 

A while later, a single flickering light lit up.

Wei Shi caught the Wu Jin who was still sneaking around furtively, “Not sleeping?”

Wu Jin was still foolishly happy, “Sleeping! Just let me finish sending this message––” ZgPTcB

 

Wei Shi casually stuck another test strip onto Wu Jin.

Tsk, no change in color.

Wu Jin closed the terminal and drilled into the warm and toasty blankets, nesting inside obediently.

 

Meanwhile.

Thousands of cosmic units away. OM vI9

 

The White Moonlight team members’ terminals all vibrated slightly.

Zoe had just come back from an evening run. He poured a bottle of water over himself and opened up his terminal.

  hp1kDf

Then, the water he’d half finished in his mouth sprayed out directly, and he even choked because he was overstimulated.


xiin: Wei Shi’s “Want a bullet? Well, wait until tonight.” was probably the LAMEST PICKUP LINE EVER. Big boss, you’ve really let me down…

Juurensha: Awwwww, can’t consummate the marriage yet, but it was still really sweet!
Also probably Zoe: Time to assassinate the Floating City King
Wen Lin: Let’s calm down a bit, I mean it’s good that he put a ring on it?
Zoe: Without asking for permission from his parents???? The disrespect
Wen Lin: Wait are we his parents now, wow my son is already 19, amazing.

  1. LOL they can’t consummate their marriage yet so rip for now ig xD (Little Witch’s hiccups are so cute tho istgggg ><)

    And, Zoe OMGGG!!! His child was snatched away without his knowledge, this is gonna be gold xD (Also, I love how there are many types of marriages a person can choose from. It’s so awesome!!)

    Thanks for the chapter! 🙂

  2. I was wondering why is that single spouse contract so far away til the 2700 sth

    Then we got to read the detail.

    WOW AMAZING. THE FUTURE.

    YOU CAN PUT A BULLET ON YOUR CHEATING SPOUSE LEGALLY

    AWESOME

    cough

    And all those open choices sigh. Wonderful clap

    Researcher Song immediately disappoint Wei Shi lmaooooo That pick up line by Big Boss was so strange I just go ??? Wait did he meant…. Well for all the romantic situations he created, there ought to be some bump cough

    I love how we could feel the childish side of Big Boss after unlocking his emotional lock lmao Continuously slapping the testing strips on Little Witch

    But he should really take his medicine. Researcher Song should tell Little Witch about this.

    Thank you for the chapter❤️❤️

  3. I was wondering why theres a bullet & gun involved.. I thought its just the theme of the wedding but who wouldve thought its a free pass to shoot ur partner when they crossed the line XD

    “Want a bullet? Well, wait until tonight.” – OMG my mind automatically had some unpure thoughts when I read this 😂😂

    Ahh damn it cockblocked again!! (Feels like im the one haha)

    “Tsk, no change in color” – aww I feel bad for Boss Wei.. but its kinda funny tho 😂😂

    Little witch is really cute 😍😍 also Juurensha-san’s small theatre tho lol 🤣🤣

    Thanks for the chapter~!

  4. thank you for the chapter! if “gone girl” was on the future the movie wouldn’t end the same way 🙂

  5. With Little Witch getting kidnapped, rescued, then married like this, Zoe’s emotional fluctuations must be enough to pull him out of a treatment cabin (if he had needed it).

    am i funny yet-

  6. I can imagine the scenario where Little Witch is going back to the White Moonlight headquarters/Crosson Show base and the bystanders being absolutely startled by Zoe greeting him with a loud “XIAO WU WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN YOU GOT MARRIED OVER THE BREAK?!”

  7. Wait, after affects that were mentioned… Zhou Nan mentioned that since Little Witch saw his childhood, it shouldn’t ne embarassing, so it shouldn’t be THAT serious…

    Will the after-effects include some sort of mental or physical age-regressing?

  8. That marriage license. XD

    No flowery words. Just if “I cheat, etc. You have the right to put a bullet through me.”

    🤣

  9. Ahhh can’t wait to see the reaction of those straight men in crosson show when they found out scarf cp is real hahaha

  14. Just noticed that the bullet C7223 is the same as the first 5 characters as Wu Jin’s sample number in R-Code.

    Btw, happy marriage~ All hail Scarf CP! 😍

  15. Wei Shi inhaled quietly, “Want a bullet?”

    Wei Shi spoke in a hoarse voice, “Well, wait until tonight.”

    🤣🤣🤣

    Then he had been battling with a strip of test paper that blue balled him. Lameeee 🤣🤣🤣. Thankfully Lil Witch is clean white regarding this it seems hahahaha.
