The He family kept their word.
The next morning, He Yanzhi appeared at the entrance of the Guan family's courtyard house.
Uncle Li already knows that his young lady will marry into the He family.
So as soon as he saw someone, he immediately invited them into his home.
At this time, Guan Wenru had not yet gotten up.
Guan Wanxin asked Wang Guihua to wake Guan Wenru, while she invited He Yanzhi into the study.
He Yanzhi became the regimental commander, and he believed that his upright character could suppress many people.
But in front of Guan Wanxin, he seemed a little awkward. Under her gaze, he could only pretend to be calm and said, "Grandma Guan, I've come to pick up Guan Wenru to get our marriage certificate."
Guan Wanxin stared at him with her shrewd eyes, her hand tapping lightly on the table. "He Yanzhi, I want the truth from you now. Do you really want to marry my granddaughter?"
He Yanzhi thought to himself, he was unwilling.
The He family and the Guan family were acquaintances, and he had indeed met Guan Wenru over the years.
However, Guan Wenru was not a very prominent person, and he did not have a deep impression of her.
He had long had someone he liked, but fate played a trick on him, and he never found that person.
He had planned to search for the person for the rest of his life if he couldn't find them.
I'm not getting married!
Who knew that he would cause so much trouble just by coming back to attend Han Haoxian's wedding?
The Han family witnessed him and Guan Wenru lying in the same bed, and he also learned about the Han family's character; they would definitely tell others about it later.
By then, Guan Wenru's reputation would be ruined.
As a man, he has to be responsible, so no matter how much he doesn't want to get married, he has to.
The marriage application has already been approved. Saying you don't want to marry now will only make the Guan family unhappy.
With a determined look in his eyes, he met Guan Wanxin's gaze and nodded, "I sincerely want to marry Guan Wenru."
The young man in front of him had a brighter and more determined gaze than Han Haoxian.
It wasn't until this moment that Guan Wanxin realized what a truly responsible man was like!
But she continued to ask, "You know very well what kind of person Han Haoxian is. I heard that you two grew up together. Do you have anything in common with him?"
Subtext: Would you cheat?
He Yanzhi understood, and his expression became serious. "Grandma Guan, I swear on my life that I will never betray my marriage."
Whether he likes Guan Wenru or not is one thing, but as long as Guan Wenru is still his wife, he will not do anything to betray her.
He also looked down on Han Haoxian's behavior.
He will never become a scumbag like Han Haoxian in his entire life!
Hearing his promise, Guan Wanxin finally smiled with satisfaction. "Okay! I believe you. From today onwards, I'm entrusting my granddaughter to you. You must treat her well."
I don't ask you to give everything for her, but you can't betray her. If one day you feel that you can't live with her anymore, then tell our Guan family. Our Guan family will always be her home, and we will never let her cling to you or pester you.
We only have one request: please don't hurt her, whether physically or emotionally, okay?
When she said these words, Guan Wanxin shed her sharp edges, and her words were filled only with concern for her granddaughter.
He Yanzhi bowed respectfully, "I will remember this and will certainly not fail Grandma's expectations."
The two talked in the study for a while, and then Guan Yuanxiu and Qin Yue knocked on the door and came in.
The two of them also gave He Yanzhi some instructions.
Ultimately, all I wanted was for him to treat Guan Wenru well.
Guan Wenru had already finished packing and asked Guan Hongqi to call for help.
Guan Hongqi knocked on the door of the study.
As He Yanzhi walked out, he pursed his lips, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
He Yanzhi raised an eyebrow. "Speak your mind."
Guan Hongqi retorted, "Although...although you are the regimental commander, I am not afraid of you. You better not bully my sister, or I will definitely beat you to a pulp."
“??” He Yanzhi chuckled.
This was the first time in all these years that he had heard someone say such harsh words to him.
Beat him until he's crawling on the ground, teeth and all.
interesting!
He suddenly raised his hand, and Guan Hongqi was so frightened that she took a step back. "W-what...what do you want to do?"
He Yan lightly punched him on the shoulder, "Young man, you have a lot of ambition, but if you want to beat me to a pulp, you still need to work on your physique."
"..." Guan Hongqi felt that he was being looked down upon.
He wanted to stand up for himself, but when he looked at He Yanzhi's physique and then down at his own small frame, he suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon and couldn't utter a single word.
I can't even straighten my back!
Seeing his expression, Guan Wanxin chuckled, "Alright, alright, let your brother-in-law and sister go get their marriage certificate first. You're only 16 years old now. As long as you exercise and eat well, you can grow up to be as tall and strong as your brother-in-law."
Guan Hongqi pouted again, "That's right, I'm only 16 years old, I have plenty of time to grow!"
He Yanzhi actually found this kid quite amusing.
He went with him to find Guan Wenru.
Guan Wenru had feelings for He Yanzhi, and the thought of getting a marriage certificate with him and becoming a legal couple filled her with joy.
So after getting up, she asked Aunt Wang for help, and the two of them searched through the wardrobe and finally found a red floral print dress.
Although resources were scarce in those days, and there weren't even any cosmetics companies in China, the Guan family was wealthy, and Guan Wenru naturally had the ability to obtain foreign goods.
She owns quite a few lipsticks.
After washing up, she even drew her eyebrows, applied lipstick, let her long hair down, and wore a headband that matched her clothes.
She was already beautiful, but after this little makeover, she became even more stunning.
He Yanzhi didn't want to marry her, nor did he like her, but he had to admit... Guan Wenru was indeed beautiful!
