"You were just calling me 'husband,' why are you scared now? You little rascal."
"Huh? How dare you say that? Let me see your face!"
The man leaned in again and gently kissed his forehead.
"Let's get married, honey. You've done that to me, shouldn't you give me a proper status?"
Lia froze for a moment, staring at the harmless, handsome black-haired man in front of her.
My mom always said that scumbags get struck by lightning! Anyway, he's got the ability now and can handle all sorts of tests.
Lia didn't want to be struck by lightning, her Adam's apple bobbed, and she stammered, "Fine, fine, I'll stay in this position."
Quinn couldn't help but grin wildly. "Tomorrow, let's register our marriage before going to the palace, okay? Also... what are some of your family's customs, honey?"
Lia marveled at the advantage of having a strong physique, saying that even the heavy Quinn pressing down on her was no problem.
He touched the back of his neck, and finally, unable to bear it any longer, said, "Let's put our clothes on first, okay?"
The next day
The two, one in black and one in white, were dressed in high-class interstellar formal wear.
Formal attire is an improvement on the ancient suit over a long period of time. It still looks like a suit, but the fabric is made of special fibers that can keep the body at a constant temperature regardless of whether it is high or low temperature.
However, this material is not available to everyone, and ordinary people still cannot afford its expensive price.
"When was this prepared for me? How come I didn't know?"
Quinn's lips curled into a smile, "Preparations began on your way back to Central Star."
"And the size? The size is exactly the same."
"My visual assessment is also very accurate."
Lia: "Well, you've been planning this all along."
"My courage to have ulterior motives stems from the affection you give me. I felt that you liked me too, but I didn't realize it so quickly back then. I know you can't live without me anymore, at least in my intuition."
Lia sighed, "Well, as expected of a beast's instinct."
Quinn ruffled the boy's hair, which barely reached his own, and chuckled, "Honey, you can always back out before we register. We only have 15 minutes left before it's our turn."
Lia frowned. "It's not like you can't take a joke. If you ever dare to wrong me again, you're as good as dead."
Upon hearing this, Quinn was not afraid at all; instead, he bent down and picked the person up with one arm.
"Honey, that's impossible. But if someone frames me, please give me a chance to defend myself. I will prove how loyal I am to you."
Lia was startled by this sudden action, because Quinn was holding him like this... For the first time, he experienced the perspective of being more than two meters high, looking down at the other orcs.
The orcs gave them strange looks, initially puzzled, but after recognizing who it was, they immediately picked up their personal computers and secretly began taking pictures.
Since learning of Quinn's power, Lia was no longer afraid of other orcs.
There was even an orc streamer live-streaming their marriage registration, and the chat section exploded instantly.
[Look, look! It's the Academy of Sciences!]
[Holy crap, the handsome guy sitting on his arm is his girlfriend, right?! They're getting married! That's so fast!]
[So cute! It's a hamster beastman! So adorable! I love it!]
[Hehe, I'm a feline, and I like it too.]
[Hey guys upstairs, shut your mouths! The dean has 3S+ strength, what are you dreaming of?]
[Um, I was wondering if it would sound... well, you know, when they say "that" or "that," hehe.]
[Ugh, what kind of combination is that?! How much Spiritual Power does a little hamster have? Can it even handle that?!]
[What are you guys talking about? Can't I go first...?]
The streamer realized he was in deep trouble and quickly shut down the live stream, fearing his house would be bombed the next day, after all, this was an orc who could even bomb the house of the richest man.
"Please, number A5201314, proceed to the window to register."
The electronic female voice broadcast again, Quinn casually carried his wife to register the marriage.
The registrar wanted to say something more, but seeing the way Lord Quinn doted on the little hamster, which didn't seem fake, she felt a little relieved.
"Please fill in the application information on your personal computer and submit it."
The steps were carried out methodically, and after receiving two palm-sized transparent crystal marriage certificates, Quinn could no longer contain his excitement.
This was the happiest moment of his life, and he couldn't wait to announce it to the world.
However, he didn't need to do anything; the entire Star Network already knew they had gotten their marriage certificate.
The way they hugged made the interstellar orc girls almost have nosebleeds from swooning; it was just too amazing!
Time was tight, and Lia was taken to the palace in a hovercar.
On the road
When Lia was carried out, she was somewhat dazed; she had actually gotten married!
They are still the most powerful orcs in the entire galaxy!
Emerging from the crowd, he still found it somewhat unbelievable, his fingertips trembling slightly as he carefully stored the marriage certificate in his spatial storage.
"I... Quinn, I still have nine spatial loops in the Central Star system, should I...?"
"Honey, you don't need to contribute your money. Spend mine, okay? Someone at the Academy of Sciences said I'm a kept man yesterday. Honey, please have pity on me. I feel so bad if you don't spend my money."
Lia chuckled, "Other beastmen would love to be kept by a woman, don't you want to?"
Quinn shook his head. "No, I want to raise a wife. Wives are so cute, I want to hug her."
Lia was held tightly in someone's arms.
Bai Ze, who was driving the hovercar in front, almost rolled his eyes to the sky.
Who the hell is this? Their boss? This whining, who would believe he's their boss?! How embarrassing!
Lia felt comfortable and safe being held in his arms. "Honey, can you help me get those nine spatial teleportations back too? I'll upload the request tomorrow."
Quinn gave a soft "hmm," and then said, "Then promise me you'll spend my money."
Lia felt a bit dumbfounded.
He slowly withdrew from Quinn's embrace. "Okay, let me see how much you..." he said, opening the joint property to check.
Upon seeing that endless string of zeros, Lia's smile gradually faded. "It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. You're way too rich! Can even Kane's family, the richest in the world, be as wealthy as you?"
Quinn: "They're nobody. I just didn't apply for a ranking. Besides, even if my family is very rich, we don't reveal it. We keep our wealth hidden. My wife isn't an outsider; I can tell her."
He only now realizes that after marriage, he can see how rich his partner is and use their assets.
Lia suddenly remembered that the things in her spatial storage were all collectibles, artifacts, or gems; no wonder her father couldn't tell how extravagant her mother was.
