The affidavit is marital status "single" from a Lawyer, like a declaration;and then you need first get it legalized by the your government (valid for 3 months since the date of legalization) and finally authenticated by the Chinese Embassy or the Chinese Consulate-General (valid for six months from the date of authentication).

Yes, you need to do Marriage Registration in China through her local departments.
The letter refers to a single/non-marital status certificate. First, you need an affidavit of Single Status, signed before a notary public. And then get it certified by the Secretary of the Foreign Office of your location where the document is executed.
At last, it should be certified by the relevant Consulate General.
