Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1039 - 1040: If I Don’t Marry You, I Have No Right to Call You My Wife

"Moyan, is it too early to bother you?" The voice on the phone was slightly older, carrying a tone of elder’s concern for the younger generation.

"No, is there something you need, Han Lao?"

"There is indeed something. I’ll get straight to the point. It’s about this—do you know of the royal noble Wells from Country M?"

"Wells? I’ve heard a bit, why ask me?"

"Just a bit? Han Lao’s hand tapped lightly on the table, words layered with deeper meaning.

"What do you mean by that, Han Lao?"

"Moyan, you’re a first-class protected personnel, not just by the military but by the whole nation, you know that. If there’s something going on, we can’t ignore it. In return, you receive more security than ordinary people, but you should adhere to the law more strictly than ordinary people too."

"I’m confused by your words. Did I break any laws?"

"I won’t beat around the bush with you. Moyan, tell me honestly, is Wells’s daughter with you?" Han Lao’s tone turned serious.

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Han Lao, I have a wife, how could someone else’s daughter be with me."

"You’re married?" Han Lao was slightly taken aback.

"Since when?"

"I am."

"Quite low-key, I haven’t heard a word about it."

"It’ll be announced when the time is right."

"Alright then, it’s for the best if you say she’s not with you. This person isn’t easy to deal with, especially with the Mew organization behind him. Wells came to me early this morning, and let me tell you, he was quite the sight. He’s claiming you kidnapped his daughter, said you previously carried hazardous materials into their country and blew up his estate, demanding an explanation from us. But when I asked for evidence, he couldn’t provide any. I agreed to help him find his daughter and temporarily sent him away, but with his attitude then, I bet he’ll come to you personally."

"I understand."

"Moyan, business is business and personal is personal. Our Jun and Han families may not be deeply connected, but our relationship is quite good. There’s no harm in you calling me Grandpa Han. I sincerely hope nothing goes wrong for you. Getting into a feud with someone like Wells is digging a hole for your future. Don’t act impulsively and do something foolish. At worst, we’ll take a small loss."

"I understand."

"Glad you do. I won’t keep you anymore."

"Wife? Are you talking about me?"

Just after hanging up, Wen Xiao’ai’s clear, sweet voice rang out, laced with a hint of tenderness and anticipation.

Jun Moyan lowered his gaze, looking at her in his arms. After setting the phone aside, he tightened his embrace, lowered his body slightly, burying his head in her neck, before responding:

"Who else but you."

"Wife and spouse mean the same thing."

Jun Moyan’s lips curled slightly: "Mm."

Just like spouse.

"Hehe, it doesn’t matter if you marry me or not, I’m already your wife."

Even though she still wished Jun Moyan could put a ring on her finger like Brother Gu did for his bride in that beautiful place, now thinking back, it seems not important anymore. Just being with Jun Moyan is already good.

"I must marry you, otherwise I don’t have the right to call you my wife."

If he couldn’t even offer her a proper wedding, what right did he have to be with her?

More than anything, he wanted to be with her rightfully, but he was waiting... though he didn’t know for what or how long he had to wait himself.
