Chapter 41 The Proper Sense of Ritual



To keep a low profile, the two still drove Ye Ning's Lamborghini.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the hotel lobby.

Just as she was about to go upstairs, Ye Ning suddenly remembered that she had lost her room key when she was kidnapped that day.

Fortunately, the hotel has a facial recognition system.

Ye Ning was getting a replacement room key at the front desk, while Xiao Jingchen stood beside her waiting.

After the front desk staff re-registered the information, they handed the new room to Ye Ning.

"Alright! Jingchen, let's go up!" The two of them got into the elevator together.

What no one noticed was that someone in the hall had been silently observing them.

This person was Li Churan's high school classmate. He was also a groomsman when Li Churan and Ye Ning held their wedding, so he naturally knew Ye Ning.

After watching Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen disappear hand in hand into the elevator shaft, he immediately dialed Li Churan's number.

"Hey! Chu Ran, I had dinner with a client at the hotel today, and guess who I ran into? I ran into Ye Ning! She went into a hotel room with a pretty boy, really, I saw it with my own eyes..."

Ye Ning opened the room door, rummaged through her suitcase for a while, and sure enough, found the documents inside.

Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen arrived at the waiting hall together. Today might be an auspicious day, as there were quite a few young couples queuing up to get their marriage certificates.

After registering, Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen waited in the lobby for their number to be called, just like any ordinary young couple. However, their unusual appearance and temperament still attracted a lot of attention.

Xiao Jingchen held Ye Ning's hand tightly, while Ye Ning leaned quietly against his chest.

Just then, the phone rang. Who was spoiling the mood?

Ye Ning didn't want to answer, but the phone kept ringing.

Ye Ning took her phone out of her bag and saw the name on the screen was Li Churan. Why was he calling her?

Ye Ning couldn't help but secretly observe Xiao Jingchen's expression. Seeing that he didn't react, she answered the phone.

"Ye Ning, I heard you and Xiao Jingchen booked a hotel room?" Li Churan asked impatiently as soon as Ye Ning answered the phone.

"Yeah! What's it to you?" Ye Ning said irritably.

"Never mind that, where are you now?" From the moment he received the call, a strange emotion was brewing inside him. Although his pride wouldn't admit it, he had to admit that this emotion was jealousy.

"I'm at the Civil Affairs Bureau," Ye Ning said impatiently.

What are you doing at the Civil Affairs Bureau?

"Let's get our marriage certificate!" Ye Ning's words were like a thunderbolt.

"What? Get a marriage certificate? What certificate? With Xiao Jingchen? You're going to marry Xiao Jingchen?" Li Churan thought Ye Ning had gone completely mad.

In fact, in Li Churan's heart, she would rather accept that Ye Ning was crazy than accept the fact that Ye Ning had fallen in love with Xiao Jingchen.

"What? Is that not allowed?" Ye Ning retorted sarcastically.

"Of course not! He's your brother." Although he knew that Xiao Jingchen and Ye Ning were not related by blood, he couldn't find any other reason right now.

“Why not? First of all, my surname is Ye, and his surname is Xiao.”

"Secondly, we are not related by blood at all, and there is no adoption procedure. He was just fostered in my home."

Third, this is my business and has nothing to do with you.

"Ye Ning, don't be impulsive... I know there are many misunderstandings between us, and I will explain them to you." Li Churan said hurriedly. Although he didn't understand the reason for stopping her, he knew in his heart that he had to stop Ye Ning.

"I wasn't impulsive, and I don't want to hear your explanation. Those things have nothing to do with me, and I'm not interested in them." Her fate with Li Churan had already ended in her previous life.

Xiao Jingchen snatched the phone from Ye Ning's hand.

"I am Xiao Jingchen. I am now officially informing you that Ye Ning is now my woman, and she has nothing to do with you anymore." Xiao Jingchen declared his ownership directly. He had wanted to say this for a long time, and now he could finally say it legitimately.

"That's impossible!" Li Churan said forcefully.

"Does this world mean it's possible just because you say it's possible, and impossible just because you say it's impossible? Li Churan, let me tell you, Ye Ning is mine, and she has nothing to do with you anymore!"

"Xiao Jingchen, I know you've long harbored desires for Ye Ning, and you're just taking advantage of her vulnerability now. But Ye Ning will eventually wake up to the truth."

"Is that so? Mr. Li, then we'll see!" Xiao Jingchen didn't back down at all. He hadn't settled accounts with them properly for Lin Mengru kidnapping Ye Ning yet. Once he had the time, he would definitely not let them off the hook.

"Jingchen, our number has been called, come over quickly!" Ye Ning's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Ye Ning, don't go!" Li Churan roared, but it was all in vain; Ye Ning had already hung up the phone.

Li Churan slumped onto the sofa, his mind a jumbled mess. What was wrong with him?

He had fallen in love with Ye Ning. This terrible thought flashed through his mind. Impossible, this couldn't be.

Why did he try to stop Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen from being together?

That's right, it's because he didn't want anyone else to touch the things he had used before, yes, that's it.

Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen were guided by the staff.

Taking photos, signing, stamping, and printing were all done in one go.

After the last stamp was applied, the staff handed the little red book to the two of them.

"Miss Ye Ning, Mr. Xiao Jingchen, congratulations on your marriage! This is your marriage certificate!"

A minute later, Xiao Jingchen and Ye Ning came out of there with two small red books in their hands.

"Ye Ning, from now on I can openly possess you. You're mine for life." Xiao Jingchen declared domineeringly at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, his voice so loud that even the gatekeeper rolled his eyes.

"Really? Then please guide me for the rest of my life," Ye Ning replied playfully.

“That’s a must!” The two exchanged a smile.
