Chapter 517 Household Registration Book Civil Affairs Bureau
After hearing his words, Shen Zhichu breathed a sigh of relief and her eyes turned red. She clenched the candy in her hand and stared at Bai Qiujing without saying a word.
Bai Qiujing was startled and gently led the person towards him: "What's wrong? Why are your eyes red?"
"I thought you didn't want me anymore."
Bai Qiujing laughed out loud: "I've been searching for you for so long, how could I possibly not want you? But now that the Bai family is gone, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you in the future, not to mention that I'll be a burden to you..."
Shen Zhichu is not a brave person. She is like a snail. Instead of facing the outside world, she prefers to make her shell harder and retract into it if she is hurt.
After dying once, she built many emotional walls and was unwilling to believe in marriage and love again.
But Bai Qiujing was an exception. He always stood in front of her to protect her and tolerate her. He really never thought of abandoning her.
Now the city wall has fallen down because of him and will never be erected again. There are many thoughts hidden deep in his heart, and many things have changed because of Bai Qiujing.
She will not lose anything related to "Bai Qiujing". It is easier for her to believe in this person than to believe in herself. She will never let the result that Li Jingshen wants to see happen.
"You've always protected me, so let me protect you from now on, and I can give you a home."
Bai Qiujing was mistakenly taken away and his life was replaced, becoming the child of a bodyguard. He also had an orphan childhood. Although the Li family treated him well, a servant was always a servant, and when necessary, they would let him sacrifice his life to save Li Jingshen's.
He grew up in an orphanage and was a fool for so many years. Bai Qiujing always longed for a home, so he bought a house in Chengdu with the first money he earned.
The home he wanted was not just a house, but one where Shen Zhichu lived.
With Bai Qiujing's ability, he can provide his family with food and clothing, but he lacks power, so it will be more difficult for him to move forward.
But if Shen Zhichu encounters any danger again, he can't give him anything except his life in exchange.
Bai Qiujing tried his best to hide the disappointment on his face, but Shen Zhichu still saw it.
She grabbed his hand and pulled him up: "You haven't been out for a long time after being busy for so many days. Come with me to relax and get some fresh air."
"Okay." No matter how busy you are, you can't take things for granted, and you may even get sick from being too busy.
Bai Qiujing had previously said that he wanted to gain weight in order to film a movie, and now he has become even thinner.
Shen Zhichu took the car keys and drove. Bai Qiujing didn't ask her where she was going. He just followed her wherever she wanted to go.
There was soothing music playing in the car. It was a bit cold in November, and the air conditioner was on in the car. The warm wind blowing on my face made me feel a little sleepy.
There were so many red bloodshot eyes that it looked like they were congested.
"Go get some sleep. I'll call you when we get there."
Bai Qiujing closed his eyes obediently, and after a while he belatedly replied with a "hmm".
Shen Zhichu watched him close his eyes, control the steering wheel with one hand, and open the car drawer with the other hand to look at the two small vermilion notebooks inside.
The car drove for nearly an hour. When they arrived at the destination, Shen Zhichu carefully pulled the car over to the side of the road and then went to wake Bai Qiujing up.
Shen Zhichu patted his face: "Qiu Jing wake up, we're here."
Bai Qiujing opened his eyes in a daze, his pair of dark brown eyes were like water, a pool of mist filled with confusion.
"Where is this?" I slept with my head tilted to one side. When I woke up, my neck was sore and it was stiff even when I turned it.
Shen Zhichu reached out and tidied up his messy hair, pushing down the tuft of hair that stood up in the middle and smoothing it out.
"Go out and see."
Bai Qiujing unbuckled his seat belt and opened the car door. Before his feet even touched the ground, he saw three words outside.
——Civil Affairs Bureau.
He froze for a moment, sitting on the edge of his seat with his feet in the air, forgetting to put them on the ground.
He turned around and saw Shen Zhichu holding two household registration books and smiling at him.
Civil Affairs Bureau, household registration book, what else can you do?
Bai Qiujing felt a tightness in his chest, and then a strange emotion overflowed from his chest, as if boiling water had scalded his heart. The dense heat spread to every corner of his body, and his palms were so hot that they were sweating.
"It might be a little late today, but the Civil Affairs Bureau is still open. We might be the last lucky couple to log in today."
"Chu Chu..." Bai Qiujing felt his nose sore from the emotion.
"Um?"
"I haven't proposed to you yet." He wanted to give Shen Zhichu the most complete relationship, without leaving out any one.
Love begins with confession, dating, proposal, giving of rings, engagement and then marriage.
"That's not important."
"I didn't bring the ring either."
"After we finish the formalities, you can go home and bring it to me to wear. We can hold the wedding after we're done with this busy period, and the wedding photos too. Besides..." Shen Zhichu paused and smiled happily, "All I want is you, not these external things. As for your parents, my parents took you to the cemetery last time. As for Aunt Li and the others, they gave me this household registration book."
