Chapter 294 Demanding Recognition
Xie Nanzhi smiled, "Thank you all for seeing him out. We'll be going now."
Mr. Li, "Then please take care, you two."
Then, everyone left.
Xie Nanzhi helped Wei Chizheng into the car, and after taking only two steps, he grabbed her hand.
His palms were warm with the smell of alcohol, and his fingertips brushed against the back of her slightly cool hand. His voice was hoarse, as if veiled by a layer of mist, "Your hands are so cold, why didn't you wait in the car?"
"I want you to see me the moment you see me."
She grabbed his wrist and helped him into the passenger seat. "But judging from Mr. Wei's tone, he hasn't had too much to drink?"
Her tone was slightly reproachful, but she still carefully adjusted his seat lower.
Wei Chizheng sat down, leaning his head back in the seat, glancing sideways at her busy figure. As Xie Nanzhi returned to the driver's seat and fastened her seatbelt, she felt his fingertips gently hook around the hem of her dress.
"You weren't drunk, so Mr. Nan just ignored me?" He softened his voice, revealing a frankness born of alcohol.
Xie Nanzhi started the car, the warm light shining on his reddened ear tips. "I don't care, there are plenty of women who will care."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chizheng turned to stare at her, "Are you jealous?"
Xie Nanzhi's question was irrelevant: "Do you know him?"
Wei Chizheng said honestly, "You actually know him."
Xie Nanzhi became interested and met his slightly drunken eyes. "Among the women we both know, those we're close to wouldn't steal someone else's boyfriend, so that leaves the ones we're not close to..."
She thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered someone, "Liu Mengyu?"
Wei Chizheng took her hand and kissed the back of it. "Wife, how are you so smart? That's right, it's that crazy woman."
It's not hard to guess; the range is just that big.
However, Liu Mengyu's wicked intentions remained undiminished, which surprised Xie Nanzhi.
Seeing that Xie Nanzhi remained silent, Wei Chizheng felt uneasy. "Wife, what are you thinking about?"
Xie Nanzhi's hands were on the steering wheel. "I wasn't thinking about anything, just that my husband is so popular, what if he gets snatched away by a vixen one day..."
Before she could finish speaking, Wei Chizheng had already grabbed her chin and kissed her.
The quiet air was mixed with an ambiguous atmosphere, and the temperature seemed to have risen.
In the midst of Wei Chi's passionate kiss, his large hand unknowingly traced down her slender waistline, hooking the hem of her skirt before being pressed down again.
Xie Nanzhi was dizzy from the kisses, and she gasped for breath, "Wei Chizheng, let's go home..."
A deep desire clouded his eyes. Wei Chizheng, still not satisfied, curled his lips into a wicked smile. "Okay, let's go home... and do it."
Xie Nanzhi blushed and remained silent.
He simply moved the outstretched hand away and stepped on the gas.
Looking in the rearview mirror, the city's neon lights gradually faded into blurry streaks of light, and soon after, the breathing of the person next to me slowly became steady and long.
——
Morning light streamed through the gaps in the curtains and fell on Xie Nanzhi. She lazily rolled over, and a kiss came without warning.
It landed.
Xie Nanzhi opened her eyes, and her eyelashes framed Wei Chizheng's handsome face.
Then, another kiss landed on his forehead, and Wei Chizheng smiled, "Good morning, wife."
Xie Nanzhi blinked her sleepy eyes. The morning light shone on her fair cheeks, and her delicate skin was like a peeled egg, with no visible pores.
Good morning, honey.
Wei Chi looked at her with doting eyes, "Get up and have breakfast."
Xie Nanzhi nodded, and lingered for a while before finally getting up.
Breakfast was plentiful, including all the foods that the four of us liked.
As dappled morning light streamed onto the dining table, Xie Nanzhi took a bite of her sandwich and saw Wei Chi holding a coffee cup, his gaze fixed on her face, his fingertips unconsciously tracing the rim of the cup.
Nianzheng's big eyes darted between the two of them. "Mommy, you and Daddy have made up?"
Before Xie Nanzhi could speak, Nian Chi interjected, "Is there any need to ask? Look at Daddy's eyes, they're practically glued to Mommy. The answer couldn't be more obvious."
Her son and daughter chimed in, making Xie Nanzhi's face flush red. She coughed lightly and said, "Well, you don't need to go to the hospital today. I'll go."
Wei Chizheng didn't answer. Instead, he reached across the table and gently squeezed her wrist. The warmth of his palm was familiar. "Have you finished eating?"
His voice was softer than usual, and his eyes, reflecting the morning light, were so bright they were almost dazzling.
She's a natural enchantress; even respectable women can't resist her allure.
Xie Nanzhi nodded, and just as she finished the last sip of milk, he suddenly pulled her up.
The dining chair made a soft scraping sound on the floor. She stumbled and grabbed his arm for support. "Huh? What's wrong?"
"I'm taking you somewhere, and I need your cooperation to do something."
Wei Chizheng didn't explain much, but just pulled her towards the entrance, leaving the two children staring in disbelief.
With milk smeared on the corner of her mouth, Nianzheng asked, "Brother, what is Daddy taking Mommy to do?"
Nianchi continued eating his breakfast calmly, as if nothing had happened.
He remembered that Wei Chizheng had called his grandmother that morning to ask about the household registration book, and said softly, "He probably wants to make his position more secure."
He pulled Xie Nanzhi to the entrance, and even bent down to get her a pair of flat shoes. "Wife, flat shoes are comfortable."
These are new shoes; Xie Nanzhi has never seen them before.
In recent years, she has been busy with social engagements to expand the scale of the Nanzheng Group, and her shoe cabinet is full of high heels.
But anyone who has ever worn high heels knows that beauty, elegance, and sophistication come at a price.
Xie Nanzhi picked up the shoes. "You bought these?"
Wei Chizheng pointed to the first row of shoes in the cabinet, "I've replaced all the shoes in the first row with flat shoes for you. Wear these when you're not socializing."
Xie Nanzhi looked over and indeed saw a row of flat shoes, sneakers, casual shoes, canvas shoes, and various styles of flat shoes.
Xie Nanzhi laughed, putting on her shoes while asking, "So mysterious, what do you need my cooperation for?" Wei Chizheng helped her carry her canvas bag, his fingertips brushing against her chin, his tone laced with amusement, "You'll find out when we get there."
The car drove smoothly away from the villa. Xie Nanzhi looked at the street scene passing by outside the window without much reaction until she saw the three red characters "Civil Affairs Bureau". She suddenly turned her head to look at Wei Chizheng and asked, "Are you taking me here to get a marriage certificate?" Wei Chizheng stopped the car, unbuckled his seatbelt, and looked at her.
His eyes were filled with tenderness as he reached out and ruffled her hair. "What happened last time was a reminder to me. Even though the whole world knows I'm yours, a relationship not protected by law still terrifies me. What if one day you get tired of me and want to kick me to the curb? Who will I complain to?"
As he spoke, Wei Chizheng shook the passenger-side storage compartment and took out the two people's household registration books and ID cards.
He specifically showed his ID card to Xie Nanzhi, and she could see it clearly. The name on the ID card was Wei Chizheng, and his identity was that of a Chinese citizen.
"I received your ID card yesterday afternoon. If the Civil Affairs Bureau hadn't been closed, I would have brought you here yesterday."
