Chapter 218 We have never been divorced!
"I saw this bottle of medicine when I was cleaning my room just now, and suddenly remembered that I haven't taken it for a long time."
An Ning smiled gently, her eyes curved.
She raised her hand and touched Lu Xiyan's handsome cheek, "Xiyan, it seems that you don't need to take medicine anymore."
After hearing what she said, Lu Xiyan finally let out a long sigh.
The worry in his eyes slowly faded away.
An Ning took the bottle of medicine from him, unscrewed the lid, poured all the pills into the trash can, and finally threw the bottle in as well.
She raised her eyes to look at Lu Xiyan and smiled, "Because you are my medicine."
Lu Xiyan's eyes trembled, and the corners of his eyes were slightly red.
"Then I hope the effect of this medicine can last a lifetime."
He took An Ning's left hand and rubbed the scars under the tattoo on her wrist with his fingertips, "These scars are enough to hurt me."
An Ning took his bandaged left hand with her left hand, and suddenly smiled, her eyes moist, "You see, we are a perfect match."
A match made in heaven.
He likes this word.
Pulling An Ning to the terrace, he looked at little An Xian running freely in the yard in the distance. He said, "They used to say that I loved Cheng Wanwan before she was born. When Aunt Han was pregnant, I said without hesitation that she must be carrying a little girl."
An Ning turned her head to look at his smooth profile, with a gentle smile on her face, and listened to him continue speaking.
Lu Xiyan smiled and said, "I even gave the unborn little sister a lot of gifts. The Lu family and the Cheng family have been friends for generations and have frequent exchanges. So at that time, my grandfather and Cheng Wanwan's grandfather proposed that if Aunt Han really gave birth to a little sister, we should marry our two families."
At this point, he smiled softly, "It seems that everything about our childhood sweetheart relationship is natural. They also thought that I would continue my childhood love for my unborn little sister into adulthood."
An Ning continued with a smile, "But when you grew up, Cheng Wanwan liked you, but you never liked her."
"Ever since I can remember, she has always been by my side, and I have always treated her as my younger sister." Lu Xiyan looked at her, "So when our parents first proposed a marriage after we came of age, I refused."
"The second time was when I first met you." He chuckled, "I rejected the arranged marriage again. Cheng Wanwan was so embarrassed that she attempted suicide."
"Now that I think about it, I really do love that unborn little sister, and it's only natural that we went from being childhood sweethearts to being husband and wife."
Lu Xiyan raised his hand and clasped the back of An Ning's head, rubbing it gently with his fingertips. He smiled gently and beautifully.
"Because that little sister isn't Cheng Wanwan. It's you, An Ning."
As soon as he said this, An Ning felt numb all over.
It seemed as if a sense of destiny made her whole body warm.
Lu Xiyan said, "I didn't believe in destiny before, until I met you, I realized the wonder of the word 'fate'."
"So that word you just said is very correct."
An Ning's heartbeat quickened, pounding. She knew what it meant, and deliberately asked, "Which word?"
"We were made for each other."
After he finished speaking, he put his arm around An Ning's waist.
In the sunlight, I gave her a long and passionate kiss.
......
In the evening, Lu Xiyan was working in the study.
An Ning pushed the door open and came in, standing in front of him like a good student. "There's something... I want to ask you."
Lu Xiyan raised his eyes, a smile in the corners of his eyes, "What are you feeling so guilty about?"
"Um..." An Ning didn't dare to look him in the eye. She looked left and right. "Did you send me the divorce certificate from four years ago?"
She felt that Lu Xiyan must not like to mention the matter of "divorce", especially the divorce four years ago, which was something not worth mentioning.
But Xianxian is going to school in the fall. She and Lu Xiyan are not married yet, and the admission procedures require her to provide proof such as her divorce certificate. She can only ask Lu Xiyan.
As expected, just as she finished asking, she saw Lu Xiyan's eyes narrowed slightly, "Divorce certificate?"
He had never seen this thing, how could he send it to her?
"I called you before, and Cheng Wanwan answered..." She looked up at Lu Xiyan guiltily, "She said that our divorce procedures are complete and you will send it to me."
At this point, Lu Xiyan's face darkened slightly. "Our divorce was handled by grandpa. I haven't seen the divorce certificate, but it might be with grandpa."
"You've never seen a divorce certificate?" An Ning was surprised. Didn't his grandfather give him the certificate in these years?
"Why would I want to see it?" Lu Xiyan muttered, "I didn't even sign it back then. It was my grandfather who hired a team of lawyers to do it. I didn't ask about it."
He didn't want to ask.
He insisted on not signing, so the old man took care of the whole process.
There was clearly a hint of grievance in these words.
An Ning laughed when she heard it, and quickly walked over, climbed onto his shoulders, and hugged him from behind.
"Okay..." An Ning softened her voice, tilted her head and kissed his cheek, "Then ask grandpa?"
Lu Xiyan frowned, "Why do you want to find a divorce certificate? It doesn't look good."
An Ning quickly assured him seriously, "Yes, it just doesn't look good. If you find it, I'll tear it up!"
Lu Xiyan was amused by her pretending to be serious and raised the corner of his lips, "Let me ask."
He picked up his cell phone and made a call, which was quickly connected.
After asking a few simple questions, he didn't know what the other party said, and he frowned.
After hanging up the phone, An Ning asked, "What's wrong?"
"Grandpa said he didn't know where he lost it."
"Ah?" An Ning was surprised. The divorce certificate was missing?
Since she needs an ID now, doesn't that mean she has to apply for a new one from Lu Xiyan?
Lu Xiyan must be pissed off at the banquet.
"But grandpa also said..." Lu Xiyan hesitated, keeping the topic in suspense.
"What else?" An Ning asked hurriedly.
Lu Xiyan grabbed her arm and pulled her to sit on his lap, raising the corner of his lips, "Grandpa said that a divorce certificate is not as good as a marriage certificate, and asked us to get the marriage certificate tomorrow."
An Ning's ears immediately turned red, and she covered her mouth with her hands, raising the corners of her lips, "So soon?"
"Is it coming?" Lu Xiyan pinched her waist with one hand, and with the other hand, he put his arm around her knees and picked her up and walked to the bedroom. "I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
"how long?"
"Four years."
"Four years? Waiting right after getting divorced?"
"Yeah, I wanted to catch you back as soon as you left."
"Catch him, then what?"
"And then tie you to the bed like you are doing now."
"Lu Xiyan, why have you become so shameless!"
"I can't help it. If I like someone who's thin-skinned, I have to be thick-skinned."
......
The next day.
Civil Affairs Bureau.
An Ning wore a custom-made white slim-fitting cheongsam, with her long hair tied low and light makeup on. Her facial features were delicate and charming, and her temperament was quiet and gentle.
She turned to look at the man next to her. He was wearing a crisp dark Chinese suit, his short black hair was meticulously groomed, and his brow bones were perfectly defined.
In the office, the staff said "Congratulations" to them with a smile, and Lu Xiyan handed over their ID cards.
An Ning's heart was pounding and she was extremely nervous.
When she first got her marriage certificate with Lu Xiyan, they had only met a few times. She didn't even know his family background, but she just went ahead and got married without thinking.
That time, they got their marriage certificate at the marriage registration window.
When she opened the marriage certificate, that was the first time she knew his age and birthday.
The moment she got the marriage certificate in her hand, she still felt it was extremely unreal.
She actually married a strange man just like that.
The person I married six years ago was him.
The person I married six years later was still him.
She looked at Lu Xiyan's superior profile, with a deep smile in her eyes, but her hands were clenched tightly with nervousness.
Lu Xiyan turned around and looked back at her, reaching out to hold her hand. There was no nervousness in his eyes, but more of excitement.
After some work, the staff suddenly turned around and asked, "Are you sure you're here to get married? Or are you here to get a replacement marriage certificate?"
An Ning was stunned and didn't understand what it meant.
"What do you mean?" Lu Xiyan asked, "Is there a problem with the ID?"
"The documents are fine."
The staff member smiled helplessly and returned the documents to them, "But you are already married."
"ah?"
"ah?"
Both of them were stunned.
The staff member smiled helplessly and said, "Mr. Lu, Ms. An, your marriage has lasted for six years. Are you sure you are here to get a marriage certificate, not a replacement?"
After the staff member finished speaking, Lu Xiyan and An Ning stood there in a daze.
"Bang!" There was a sound, and something in my head exploded, and was blown into pieces.
"We have been married for a long time?" Lu Xiyan asked uncertainly, "Six years?"
"That's right." The staff nodded.
"Not divorced?" he asked again.
The staff laughed, "Don't you two know whether you're divorced or not?"
Lu Xiyan's back stiffened. "Can the divorce be handled by someone else? I mean, it doesn't require both parties to show up."
If it weren't for their unusual identities, the staff would have thought they were seeing fools.
"Mr. Lu, the situation you're describing doesn't exist," the staff member patiently explained. "You and Ms. An haven't gone through any divorce procedures, so your marriage has lasted from six years ago until now."
Lu Xiyan suddenly understood.
No wonder when An Ning just left, the old man insisted that he sign some divorce papers, but he stubbornly refused to sign.
If he had signed it in the first place, the divorce could have been handled with the old man's ability and connections.
But because he never signed, the divorce procedure could never be carried out!
So because he didn't sign, he and An Ning did not divorce!
They have always been husband and wife!!!
"Sorry." Lu Xiyan suddenly laughed, "I've never been divorced, so I have no experience."
After saying that, he thanked her, took An Ning's hand and strode out.
An Ning hadn't reacted yet and her mind was still confused.
Lu Xiyan had already taken her out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Standing at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, she blinked, a little dazed, "We——"
"An Ning!" Lu Xiyan's chest heaved, and a smile spread across his face. "We have never divorced!"
He suddenly picked up An Ning, spun her around twice, and said loudly, "We are not divorced, An Ning!"
