Chapter 258 A Lifetime? Getting the Marriage Certificate
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiyin took a deep breath and straightened her shirt collar.
She specially changed into a white shirt so that she could take photos later.
Wu Xinyue helped curl her long hair, turning it into soft, large waves.
She, who usually doesn't wear makeup, drew her eyebrows and applied lipstick.
It looks great even without anything else.
Pei Muye came in and saw her at a glance.
He thought at first glance that Lin Xiyin looked exceptionally beautiful today.
She never wore makeup before, so when she dressed up a little, it was very noticeable.
Her originally cool and beautiful appearance instantly becomes flamboyant and radiant after a little dressing up.
Pei Muye looked around and noticed that many men's eyes were fixed on Lin Xiyin.
He strode over, wishing he could tuck Lin Xiyin into his arms and hide her from those people.
"Yinyin!"
However, what he didn't know was that as soon as he arrived, he sat down next to Lin Xiyin as if asserting his ownership.
Seeing that such a beautiful girl was already taken, and considering Pei Muyi's appearance and demeanor, those people felt they couldn't compare and withdrew their attention.
Men, at times, are quite self-aware.
"That's fast." Lin Xiyin glanced at her watch. "Did you come from the company?"
Pei Muye sat down next to her, leaned over and kissed her forehead: "What's the matter that you had to talk about here? Their coffee is really good."
"It's alright," Lin Xiyin asked him. "Would you like some?"
"No, I don't want any." Pei Muye didn't have the habit of drinking coffee. "I'll just try yours."
He picked up the coffee cup in front of Lin Xiyin, took a small sip, and didn't find anything particularly special about it.
Looking at Lin Xiyin again, he couldn't take his eyes off her: "Didn't you come from school? Did you go home? When did you change your clothes?"
"I came from school, I didn't go home." Lin Xiyin rested her chin on her hand as she looked at him: "Is it pretty?"
Pei Muyi's Adam's apple bobbed: "Beautiful."
She looks good without makeup, but she's even more beautiful with it on.
Each has its own merits.
"Are you satisfied?" Lin Xiyin asked again.
Pei Muye didn't know why she suddenly asked this.
But he nodded: "Satisfied."
Lin Xiyin reached out and smoothed his shirt collar: "You're not bad either. Let's go!"
Pei Muye was led to his feet by her.
He was a little confused: "Go? Where to?"
He just arrived; Lin Xiyin arranged for him to stay here. Why is he leaving already?
“We’re just meeting here,” Lin Xiyin said. “We have other things to take care of.”
Pei Muye asked curiously, "What is it?"
You'll find out soon enough.
Being kept in suspense is really unpleasant.
Pei Muye said, "Yinyin, just tell me, don't make me guess."
The two had already stepped outside the cafe.
The sun was bright, but the sky was very blue.
The two hid in the shade. Lin Xiyin held his hand and looked up at him: "Pei Muye, I have a few questions for you."
They've arrived.
Pei Muyi immediately became alert: "What is it?"
Are you sure you want to spend your life with me?
"Of course!" Pei Muye immediately tensed up upon hearing this: "Why ask such a question!"
"Just ask if you want to," Lin Xiyin smiled. "Also, if we get married, have you thought about how to handle the property issue?"
Pei Muye asked, "What are you dealing with?"
"For example, a prenuptial agreement, to sort out all the property issues..."
“No need.” Pei Muye looked at her. “I have a lot of assets, but you have a lot too. Even if you were still the same person you were before, with nothing, Yinyin, everything I have is yours. There’s no need for a prenuptial agreement. Even if there were, I would write it down and give you everything.”
"knew."
"Why are you suddenly asking this again?"
"It's better to be clear," Lin Xiyin said. She then asked, "If I get pregnant and have another son, would you still want me to have a daughter?"
Pei Muyi's mind was buzzing: "Yinyin, are you... are you pregnant?"
"No!" Lin Xiyin quickly explained, "Did you forget I was on my period?"
“Right, right,” Pei Muyi suddenly remembered, “then how should I ask this question?”
You answer first.
"No," Pei Muye said. "I don't even want you to have a second child, let alone a third. No matter what this one is, after this one, we won't have any more."
"There's one more question..."
Pei Muyi was completely confused: "Yinyin, what's wrong? If you want to chat, we can sit in a coffee shop. Why are you asking me questions standing here?"
"What, are you getting annoyed?"
“I’m not bothered, I’m just worried you’re hot.” Pei Muye tugged at her shirt collar: “Why did you decide to wear a shirt today? You look beautiful.”
"As long as it looks good." Lin Xiyin looked at him. "One last question!"
Pei Muye's gaze was full of affection: "Okay, ask away."
"Pei Muyi, are you willing to spend your whole life with me, no matter what happens, to never leave me, to love and depend on each other?"
Pei Muye was deeply shaken.
This sentence sounds too much like a wedding vow.
He looked at Lin Xiyin in disbelief: "Yinyin..."
Lin Xiyin pulled him, raised her hand, and made him look across the street.
Pei Muye looked in the direction she was pointing and his eyes widened immediately.
Across from us was the Civil Affairs Bureau!
He and Lin Xiyin obtained their marriage certificate and divorce certificate here.
But he doesn't usually take this route, and besides, he wasn't in a good mood at the time, so he had long forgotten about this location.
Besides, the location Lin Xiyin sent him today was a coffee shop.
He didn't notice when he got off the bus.
Civil Affairs Bureau...
What does she mean?
In that instant, Pei Muyi felt as if he could no longer think.
He's like an idiot.
Yet a secret joy began to spread from the bottom of my heart.
"Yinyin..."
"Pei Muyi," Lin Xiyin looked into his eyes, "Will you marry me?"
Pei Muye felt a sudden heat before his eyes, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He knew that it was his words yesterday that made Lin Xiyin aware of his anxieties and uncertainties.
That's why she did this today.
But originally, this was something he should have done.
He hadn't prepared anything.
The custom-made ring isn't finished yet, and the flowers haven't been bought.
The surrounding environment was messy, and there was a cold dish stall next to it.
It's neither romantic nor beautiful.
but!
Pei Muye felt so happy.
Years later, when he reminisced with his children, his eyes still held a happy smile.
Not to mention now.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Lin Xiyin still looked at him. "You don't want to?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Muye's tears fell.
Lin Xiyin's heart trembled slightly.
This wasn't the first time she'd seen Pei Muye cry.
But every time he cried, it touched her heartstrings.
She stood on tiptoe to wipe his tears and said, "If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes. You've agreed, so you can't go back on your word!"
Pei Muye pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, not wanting to let go.
Lin Xiyin could almost feel his heart pounding.
He didn't say anything, but Lin Xiyin knew he was very excited, moved, and delighted.
"I do."
He spoke with a choked voice.
Lin Xiyin said, "If we don't go now, the Civil Affairs Bureau will be closing time."
Upon hearing her say that, Pei Muyi immediately forgot everything else.
He held Lin Xiyin's hand, shielding her on his inner side, and carefully crossed the road.
When we arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, we found that there were hardly any people there.
Moreover, many newlyweds prefer to get their marriage certificates in the morning.
Those who came in the afternoon seemed to be mostly there to process divorces.
Besides, it's not a special holiday today, so there are even fewer people.
The remarriage process between the two was surprisingly quick.
Seven years later, when he received those two marriage certificates again, Pei Muye felt as if he had lived through another lifetime.
It seemed as if he and Lin Xiyin had never been apart.
It seems that the three years of cold war in their marriage and the more than three years of separation were all his illusions.
He always stayed with the people he loved.
The two deep red marriage certificates in front of him became like precious treasures in his eyes.
Have you seen enough?
Lin Xiyin and he had already gotten into the car, but the man's gaze was still on the marriage certificate, unwilling to look away.
"I can't get enough of it." Pei Muye's lips curled up, his face full of smiles. "It's wonderful, it feels like a dream."
Lin Xiyin's phone rang. She glanced at Pei Muye, who was grinning foolishly, and answered the call.
"Mother."
"Ruan Ruan, did it go smoothly?"
"It's all done," Lin Xiyin said. "Let's go home now."
Qu Jianhang laughed and said, "Today is your big day to get your marriage certificate. Why go home? Go have some time alone together."
"It's nothing..."
Before Lin Xiyin could finish speaking, Pei Muyi leaned closer and said, "Then we won't go back, Mom, thank you!"
Lin Xiyin stared at him with wide eyes.
mom?
Whom are you calling "Mom"?
Qu Jianhang accepted it readily: "Alright, alright, you guys have a good celebration!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiyin finally realized what was happening; "You, you've changed your mind already?"
Pei Muye raised an eyebrow: "We've already registered our marriage, it's a legal relationship recognized by law, of course I have to change my tune!"
"You really are..." Lin Xiyin pulled over and fastened her seatbelt, then asked him, "If you're not going home, where do you want to go?"
"You don't need to go back to school?"
"I've taken leave."
"Then let's leave the city."
"Leave the city?"
"It's just the two of us going to the villa on the mountain."
Lin Xiyin said, "No, that villa is uninhabited and has nothing there."
"I'll have them send it over."
"Go if you want." Lin Xiyin held out her hand: "Give me the marriage certificate, and you can drive."
"No." Pei Muye shrank back slightly. "I can't give it to you."
Lin Xiyin asked curiously, "Why?"
"I want to save it."
"I didn't mean you shouldn't save it, I just meant you should give it to me first so I can drive."
"It can still be opened like this."
Pei Muye started the car, and Lin Xiyin watched as the marriage certificate was held in his hand.
Even while holding the steering wheel, he wouldn't let go.
This is simply...
"No, are you afraid it will grow wings and fly away?"
Pei Muye said, "What if?"
Lin Xiyin never expected that after the two became a legal couple again, the thing Pei Muye cherished most would become their marriage certificate.
The two left the city, and Pei Muyi held onto the marriage certificate the whole way without letting go.
When they arrived at the villa outside the city, he led Lin Xiyin inside and said to her, "Wait for me for a moment, I'm going to the study."
"What are you going to do?"
"I locked our marriage certificate in a safe."
