Chapter 420 275: Registering Marriage Abroad
"Don't worry! Since I've said it, I'll definitely do it, but we still need to keep things low-key. Just invite your family, relatives, and neighbors; it's best if your friends aren't from inside the circle, to avoid trouble and attracting the paparazzi," Yi Anguo said.
"A lot of movie stars like hidden marriages, don't they? You can imitate by trying not to let people in the circle know or announce anything on social media."
"We don't want people to dig deeper. Even if we keep a low profile, if someone targets us, it's easy to uncover the truth."
Yi Anguo said rather embarrassingly, feeling as though he wanted to be both a saint and a sinner, but he had no choice! He wanted to meet Zhao Liying's basic expectations as a woman to get married and have children.
But he didn't want to be too high-profile, in case things become difficult to manage later.
Even if it's a fake marriage, he hadn't done it with any other woman.
As Yi Anguo thought about this, he suddenly wondered if he was being a bit too selfish.
Even if it's a fake marriage, he shouldn't marry Zhao Liying first, right? Wouldn't that be unfair to Hu Jing, Ding Jing, and the others?
Back then with Li Sisi, he pretended to be married to fool her parents, but eventually, they weren't fooled; and they also never held a wedding or a reception.
Yi Anguo felt he might as well discuss with them and skip the fake marriage altogether, and instead go to a country where polygamy is legal, hold a grand wedding, fulfill their wish to marry and wear a white wedding gown, and avoid breaking domestic marriage laws.
Marrying multiple wives is illegal within the country, but overseas it isn't. Domestic laws don't apply abroad, right? Even if he doesn't change nationality, it should be fine!
For this, Yi Anguo specially called Ding Jing to inquire about this issue.
Ding Jing was silent for a while before saying, "As long as Chinese citizens marry in countries outside China without breaking local laws, there's no problem."
"However, the premise is that you can only live abroad; coming back to the country to cohabit as husband and wife would still violate Chinese laws, resulting in the crime of cohabitation."
"But as long as there are no complaints from the public, the authorities don't investigate, and nothing happens."
After hearing this, Yi Anguo considered and said, "So, as long as none of you sue me for bigamy, I won't have a problem, won't be found guilty."
"Yes, as long as we agree and none of us charges you for bigamy, you'll be fine," Ding Jing explained.
"Besides, if something does happen, the maximum penalty is two years in prison, or even just a suspended sentence, which means basically no punishment as long as it's corrected immediately after sentencing."
"If I take you all abroad, to a polygamous country, for a grand wedding and legally register the marriage. Do you agree?" Yi Anguo asked confidently after hearing this.
"Do you really want to take us abroad to register the marriage, and hold a grand wedding?"
Though Ding Jing had a hunch when Yi Anguo asked her, she still felt surprised and excited when he asked.
As a woman, what woman wouldn't want to openly wear a wedding dress, and marry grandly with the man she loves, receiving public blessings?
And what woman wants her child to be illegitimate, unable to live in the sun, afraid to openly live with her parents?
Of course, Ding Jing was no exception. If there's a way to register marriage and hold a wedding with Yi Anguo, how could she possibly be unwilling?
"Of course, you've been with me all these years. I have to give you an explanation, a status," Yi Anguo said.
"I don't want you to follow me, be wronged for life, without even a title."
"That would really make me feel too selfish."
Hu Jing and the others smiled when they heard Yi Anguo wanted to take them abroad for a legal marriage, and that he'd let them wear wedding gowns and hold a grand ceremony, showing they were very happy.
They had longed for this day in their hearts. What girl wouldn't want to marry like a normal woman?
If the status isn't clear, things aren't right; they can't marry like normal people, and their children's backgrounds would be vague, called illegitimate secretly.
Every woman dreads that outcome.
Now, having a chance to change the situation, how could they not agree?
Although they have to go abroad to marry, it's still far better than having no way to marry!
As for the fake marriage certificate in the country, visiting the woman's parents, holding the wedding banquet in her hometown, Ding Jing, Hu Jing, including Chen Ting and Li Sisi, don't find it necessary and Yi Anguo doesn't bother explaining it further.
However, Yi Anguo didn't want to treat some better than others. Since he promised Zhao Liying, he wouldn't leave Liu Yifei and Yang Mi out either.
Of course, it depends if Liu Yifei and Yang Mi are willing to accept this fake marriage.
Zhao Liying got what she wanted, could both have children and marry, giving explanation to parents, relatives, and neighbors, making her very happy and excited, so she eagerly sought Yi Anguo.
Afterwards, she didn't forget to do a handstand; no idea where she learned it, but supposedly it increases pregnancy chances.
Yi Anguo glanced at Zhao Liying's odd posture and expression, and truth be told, despite its strangeness, the pose seemed alluring, stirring him up again.
"Don't move me! What are you doing?" Zhao Liying hastily said.
"You want to increase pregnancy chances, don't you? Actually, no need for such effort. If I just help you a few more times, that should do," Yi Anguo said laughing.
"No, I'm too tired to move anymore," Zhao Liying quickly refused.
"This is enough; too many times might lower your thing's survival rate or quality."
"Wow! Since when did you become an expert on this?" Yi Anguo said, a bit surprised.
"Of course! To get pregnant and have children, you must research and prepare thoroughly!" Zhao Liying said proudly.
"It's the only way to have a good chance of having a healthy, smart baby."
"Haha! I'm handsome, you're beautiful; our union will definitely result in a healthy, smart baby, so don't worry too much," Yi Anguo couldn't help laughing.
"You're not wrong, but extra preparation never hurts; not preparing wouldn't bring better results," Zhao Liying said.
"Alright, are you sure you don't need my help anymore?" Yi Anguo reluctantly asked.
Honestly, he was only pretending; he was already exhausted too, having just been emptied by the previous encounter, there wasn't much left to drain from him.
But men are concerned with face; that's the so-called 'dying to preserve dignity.'
Though tired, he couldn't admit defeat! After all, he's a man!
As a man, how could he easily admit defeat?
"Not now, but tomorrow; before I confirm pregnancy, I definitely need your continued help! If you don't help, how could I get pregnant alone, unless you want me to find another man to help?" Zhao Liying teased jokingly.
"You dare! I'd punish you right now," Yi Anguo said with a stern face.
Other matters might be helped by someone else, but not this one, absolutely not.
It's simply absurd to have another man help your woman get pregnant; no man would want that.
"Alright! I'm just joking, besides you, who else would I like?" Zhao Liying laughed.
"Rest assured, no other man interests me."
Seeing Yi Anguo care about her made Zhao Liying extremely happy.
The more Yi Anguo cared and was jealous, the more it showed he loved her, so how could she not be happy?
No woman doesn't care about how deeply her beloved man loves her.
Yi Anguo certainly knew Zhao Liying was joking, so he wasn't truly angry, merely playing along to amuse her.
