Most marriages in upper-class society are like this. Whether it's men or women, those who are wealthy and have status face many temptations from the outside world. Very few can truly resist these temptations.
An Yue kept Yue Xiaowan's suggestion in mind. In today's society, fake marriages are not uncommon. Many people even rent a boyfriend or girlfriend to appease their parents. Some go as far as pretending to divorce to buy a house or, for the sake of a child's school district registration or transfer fees, fake a marriage between a daughter-in-law and father-in-law.
But what about the candidate?
An Yue carefully thought it over. Since it's a fake marriage, it's best to find someone she knows well, since a fake marriage is still a marriage and involves getting a certificate to satisfy family. What if the other party doesn't want to divorce after the fake marriage, or even starts making unreasonable demands to threaten or blackmail her?
