Chapter 123 Ruan Liuzheng: If I want to get married now, are you willing?
The carriage fell into silence for a moment.
After a long time, Xie Qingcen slightly raised the corners of his lips, and a soft light appeared on his handsome eyebrows, but his eyes were still on Ruan Liuzheng.
He opened his thin lips slightly, his eyebrows and eyes were charming, and he seemed to deliberately lengthen the tone of his voice, "I think... naturally it is necessary."
Even though Ruan Liuzheng didn't say anything, one could tell from the aura that was very different from usual.
What's more, the content of Ruan Liuzheng and the others' conversation today was about Ruan Liuzheng's late grandfather, the grandfather who watched her grow up and gave her infinite care and love.
Over the years, Ruan Liuzheng has been searching for the truth, which has become her obsession.
Today, she suddenly learned everything, perhaps even the real cause of her grandfather's death.
It is probably impossible for any normal person, including him, to remain calm and without any disturbance.
Xie Qingcen's eyes flickered, and he frowned to hide the complex emotions in his eyes.
The warm palm consciously held Ruan Liuzheng, and the hot temperature was transmitted between the two through the smooth and delicate skin.
The heat made Ruan Liuzheng unable to help but want to escape, but Xie Qingcen would never give her that opportunity.
Xie Qingcen smiled lightly, his brows and eyes deep, "If you trust me, you can tell me your worries; if you don't trust me, then pretend to trust me and let me be your listener."
Ruan Liuzheng's light pink lips twitched uncontrollably when she heard that.
When she heard the first sentence, she was very moved, but when she heard the second sentence, she felt a little...
She pursed her lips, a hint of helplessness flashing across her beautiful eyebrows.
However, he never pulled his hand away from Xie Qingcen's palm.
Although Xie Qingcen's words were a little...he was truly comforting her, and she could feel Xie Qingcen's sincerity.
Ruan Liuzheng smiled, feeling the fog in her heart dissipate a little. She opened her lips slightly and said, "Why do I feel like you are forcing me to buy something? You never even thought of giving me a second choice."
She gently raised her eyes and looked at Xie Qingcen's handsome face quietly, her eyebrows flickering, "Xie Qingcen, sometimes you are so sophisticated that I feel like you are a playboy who has been immersed in the erotic world for many years."
There was a smile in her eyes, her tone was relaxed, and there was even a hint of playfulness between her beautiful eyebrows.
Seeing this, Xie Qingcen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He leaned back lazily, his posture correct yet uninhibited.
Qingjun's eyebrows were slightly raised, and a faint light flashed in his eyes.
He said lightly, "I am honored to have such an understanding."
"But I still want to make it clear that from the time I was born until now, Miss Ruan is the only two women in my life. Of course, the first one is my mother, so don't get me wrong."
The smile on Ruan Liuzheng's lips suddenly froze.
She stared earnestly at Xie Qingcen, who suddenly changed his attitude and became serious, and her palms tightened slightly unconsciously.
She unexpectedly recalled the contents of the will document that Shen Liang had given her, and the conditions that her grandfather had deliberately left behind.
Her eyes moved slightly, as if she had made up her mind, and the expression on her face gradually became firm.
But if you look closely, there is a hint of uneasiness.
Ruan Liuzheng took a deep breath, raised her eyes to look at Xie Qingcen, bit her lip and said, "Xie Qingcen, if I say that I want to get married now, will you accompany me to the Civil Affairs Bureau immediately?"
Xie Qingcen nodded without hesitation, "Yes, but not right away."
The clear and mellow voice contained a crisp and clear tone, but it gave Ruan Liuzheng hope and also brought her disappointment.
Ruan Liuzheng's heart, which had not yet had time to jump for joy, gradually calmed down after hearing Xie Qingcen's last words.
She pulled the corners of her lips bitterly, feeling not surprised but also a little disappointed.
She frowned and said in a light voice, "Well, I was just joking, don't..."
However, before Ruan Liuzheng could finish his words, Xie Qingcen couldn't help but raise his hand and tapped Ruan Liuzheng's forehead with a moderate force.
He had a faint smile on his lips and a doting look in his eyes, "It's you who should stop imagining. What I mean is, have you got your ID card? Have you prepared the documents for getting the certificate? And..."
Xie Qingcen turned his head to look at the sky outside, then raised his eyes to look at Ruan Liuzheng, a hint of deep helplessness flashing in his dark eyes.
He said, "It's already time for the Civil Affairs Bureau to get off work. If you really want to get married, the earliest you can do it is tomorrow morning."
"I, your boyfriend, don't have the power to call government agencies to account."
Xie Qingcen raised the corners of his lips slightly, with a deep smile hidden in his dark eyes. He looked straight at Ruan Liuzheng, his tone slightly ambiguous.
Ruan Liuzheng's face couldn't help but turn red.
She lowered her head in embarrassment, avoiding Xie Qingcen's gaze sheepishly, a hint of regret flashing across her cold eyes.
But thanks to Xie Qingcen's reminder, the impulse in her heart gradually subsided and she woke up instantly.
Ruan Liuzheng pursed her lips slightly, raised her eyes, and said, "Let's wait a little longer. I was a little reckless just now."
Xie Qingcen shook his head slightly, his eyes dark, "No matter if you are reckless or not, I still want to tell you that if you really have to, feel free to come to me."
"What I just said will always work for you."
The clear voice contained a hint of smile, but the tone was firm and confident.
It was very strange. Even though the time they had known each other and had been together was less than half a year, Ruan Liuzheng's restless heart had settled down, as if he had found his backbone.
She curled her palms unconsciously, and her frown slowly relaxed, her eyes brightening up a bit. "Well, I'll keep it in mind."
…
After returning to Yuelan Huafu, Xie Qingcen had dinner at Ruan Liuzheng's house as usual. He did not stay for too long today.
After helping Ruan Liuzheng clean up the dishes, he turned around and went back to his apartment.
Before leaving, he did not forget to take Fu Jingcheng with him.
Yuelan Huafu has a two-household-per-elevator structure, so besides Ruan Liuzheng, the other floor is occupied by Xie Qingcen's family.
Moreover, almost since he moved into Yuelan Huafu, Fu Jingcheng has been running to Xie Qingcen's house frequently. This is not the first time he has stayed overnight at Xie Qingcen's house.
But tonight was a little different, because it was Xie Qingcen who forcefully took Fu Jingcheng away, instead of Fu Jingcheng taking the initiative to stay overnight at Xie Qingcen's house.
When Fu Jingcheng was suddenly picked up by Xie Qingcen, he was still holding the fruit that Ruan Liuzheng had just cut for him.
A pair of big eyes like black grapes were full of confusion.
He stayed in Xie Qingcen's arms in a daze, allowing Xie Qingcen to carry him away.
It was not until Xie Qingcen put him on the soft sofa that Fu Jingcheng gradually came back to his senses. He looked at the surrounding decoration and silently put down the small bowl in his hand.
The big eyes like black grapes were slightly raised, with a hint of dissatisfaction in the bottom of them.
He jumped off the sofa and stood in front of Xie Qingcen with a little anger, "I want to live with my mother today!"
When he came back from school, he noticed that something was wrong with Ruan Liuzheng.
Although Ruan Liuzheng had been a little confused in the past, he had never been as absent-minded as he was today.
In just the time he saw, Ruan Liuzheng had already burned a finger, broken two cups, and smashed a plate.
Fu Jingcheng came out of Ruan Liuzheng's belly, and mother and son are connected by heart.
He almost instantly noticed that Ruan Liuzheng was in an unusual mood, so he had to go back tonight no matter what.
He wants to go and accompany Ruan Liuzheng!
Fu Jingcheng's pink lips were tightly pursed into a straight line, her black and white eyes stared straight at Xie Qingcen, her hands on her hips.
The expression was very dissatisfied.
Xie Qingcen squatted down, raised his hand and pinched Fu Jingcheng's chubby cheek with a smile. The corners of his eyes were raised, but his dark eyes were filled with a domineering attitude that did not allow for questioning.
He raised his eyes slightly, his eyes were serious, "No! What she needs most now is time, a quiet time."
"If you go back to live with her, not only will she be taking care of you, but it will also go against your original idea."
Xie Qingcen reached out and rubbed Fu Jingcheng's head, his clear voice tinged with a magnetic seriousness.
Fu Jingcheng's eyes moved slightly and his palms clenched into fists. He listened to Xie Qingcen's words, but he was still a little hesitant in his heart.
He pursed his lips, "But..."
"Don't worry, I'm as worried about her as you are, so I will never let anything happen to her."
Before Fu Jingcheng could finish his words, Xie Qingcen interrupted him. He raised his eyebrows, and a gleam of light flashed across his dark eyes.
Although the words were directed to Fu Jingcheng, her eyes did not even focus on him.
His eyebrows flickered, and his handsome face revealed an ambiguous meaning.
It's as if I can already predict what will happen tomorrow.
…
On the other side, after Xie Qingcen and Fu Jingcheng left, Ruan Liuzheng glanced at the empty living room and slightly curled the corner of her lips.
A touch of emotion flashed across her cold almond eyes.
Of course, she guessed why Xie Qingcen had just done that. While she was impressed by his thoughtfulness, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved in her heart.
I'm glad I didn't choose the wrong person.
But if he really had to decide so decisively to marry Xie Qingcen right now, Ruan Liuzheng would still be a little hesitant.
She is not confident, and she doesn't know whether she is ready for the next marriage.
Even though Ruan Lichu was betrayed by Bai Xunan, when she was teaching Ruan Liuzheng about marriage, she still hoped that Ruan Liuzheng could be faithful to her husband.
It’s just that on this basis, I added another sentence: keep your eyes open and don’t give up yourself for a man.
Before meeting Xie Qingcen, Ruan Liuzheng's actions were completely contrary to Ruan Lichu's wishes.
Because she met Fu Yanci, she fell in love like a mother, and perhaps the only thing she could do was to be faithful to him.
But now, she met Xie Qingcen, but began to hesitate.
After what happened with Fu Yanci, Ruan Liuzheng now has some doubts about his own judgment.
She sighed softly, then finished the last bit of work in the kitchen. When she was sure that the kitchen was completely clean, she wiped her hands and turned to go to the study.
