Chapitre 92: Chapter 91: I can still bring you to the grave of your marriage

Auteur: Purple Peony Traduction automatique

Qiao Hanye hugged He Lanjin tightly, lowered his head, and kissed her hair. "I'm very happy to have met you," he said, the joy in his voice hard to miss. "Not everyone gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity like this. I'll never let you go, Mrs. Qiao."

Tugging at the corners of Qiao Hanye's shirt, He Lanjin suddenly had an idea.

She looked at the sky. The night was dark and quiet, with everyone else immersed in their dreams. He Lanjin grabbed Qiao Hanye's hand and said, "Let's go somewhere."

Nan Feng was watching in the dark, a toothpick in his mouth. He wanted to follow the couple and make sure that they were safe, but Qiao Hanye turned his head and gave him a look. Nang Feng retreated and turned to his phone instead.

"What did you call me just now?" He Lanjin asked as she led Qiao Hanye through a few streets.

"Mrs. Qiao," Qiao Hanye said in a low voice as he watched He Lanjin point in the direction of the Civil Affairs Bureau office. She turned to him with her hands on her waist and said, "If you can have someone open this door before I finish counting to ten, you won't only be lucky in love; you will also have me to bring you through the tomb of marriage."

"Let me see if I get that right." Qiao Hanye looked at He Lanjin meaningfully. "If this door opens, then you will marry me?"

He Lanjin swung her ponytail and sat down on the steps leading to the bureau office. She put her hands on her knees and nodded. "Yes."

Just as she finished speaking, He Lanjin heard the door open. She was startled, a trace of surprise flashing across her almond-shaped eyes. Someone wearing a bright red dress came out of the office and said, "I'm the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau. I just had a dream that someone was coming to the office to apply for a certificate, so I came to take a look."

"And well, here you two are. Serving people is my mission. Please, come with me."

He Lanjin was stunned. Was this premeditated? Qiao Hanye came forward, stretched out his hand to her, and said, "Mrs. Qiao, it's not too late to take back what you said."

He Lanjin stared at Qiao Hanye for a long time, not saying a word. This was just a joke, right? It was in the middle of the night, and not even public restrooms are open during this time. How could the Civil Affairs Director come personally to issue them a certificate?

"Hmm... is Mrs. Qiao having second thoughts?" Qiao Hanye smiled at He Lanjin.

He Lanjin was dumbfounded. She stared at Qiao Hanye, who stared back at her with unfathomable black eyes as if everything was under control.

"Since Ah Jin is afraid and doesn't dare do what she said, then let's forget it," Qiao Hanye said.

Just as Qiao Hanye was about to leave, He Lanjin stood up and entered the office. "I didn't bring my ID card and household register," she said to the bureau chief. "Let's do it another day!"

"There's no need for an ID. Over here, please. Let me take a photo." the bureau chief said and quickly took a photo of the couple. "Don't worry, I'll edit it before stamping."

He Lanjin was a female soldier who valued her promises. Now she had been forced into a corner, and she had no choice but to honor her word.

He Lanjin was stunned to see the outcome of the photo. Her face had been edited so much that she appeared comical. She turned up her chin and looked at Qiao Hanye.

"There's no need to tweak the photo. My wife is naturally beautiful," Qiao Hanye said. Hearing this, the director immediately stamped the marriage certificate, and respectfully handed it over. She bowed to the couple and said, "May the two of you be blessed with a child soon."

He Lanjin walked out of the office in silence, Qiao Hanye in tow.

He Lanjin went to the teller machine and withdrew a big amount of money. She turned to Qiao Hanye and said, "You go on ahead. I have something to take care of."

He Lanjin hailed a taxi and left. Qiao Hanye drove after the taxi, which stopped by the Lu residence. He Lanjin got off the taxi and rang the doorbell. Lu Zifan answered the door.

"Ah Jin? You're here?" Lu Zifan, in his pajamas, was delighted to see He Lanjin delivering herself to his door in the middle of the night. Maybe she was here to make up for what happened the last time. Maybe he could coax her into bed and solve all his problems.
