Chapter 277 How about getting married now?
After all the wounds were cleaned, disinfected, medicated and bandaged, Meng Anran pulled up Lu Yi's shirt and turned around to pack up the used medical supplies.
While Lu Yi was buttoning his shirt, his seductive fox eyes were always fixed on Meng Anran's profile, as if he would suffer a loss if he missed a second.
Meng Anran noticed his burning gaze, but didn't bother to care. She put the bottles of ointment into the bag and said, "Apply this every night. After the wound scabs over, apply the red one... Forget it, what's the point of telling you? I'll give it to the nanny and ask her to apply the ointment to you every night."
"Change it." Lu Yi said suddenly.
Meng Anran looked over and asked, "What do you want to change?"
"Change another servant, or you come and apply the medicine for me." Lu Yi's expression was very serious, and he was not just playing tricks.
Meng Anran pondered for a few seconds and agreed: "I'll get you a replacement male servant. If you suddenly get sick, he can hold you down."
Lu Yi pursed his thin lips and hummed softly, seeming a little surprised that she could understand his concerns so quickly.
We had lunch at Fushoutang.
On the way back to Lihua Garden, Meng Anran repeatedly warned: "Don't leave Lihua Garden without permission. If you do that again, I won't care whether you live or die."
"Aren't you worried about Lu Heng at all?" Lu Yi turned his head and stared at her, as if trying to detect any fluctuation in her emotions.
However, she remained calm and said calmly, "I have my own arrangements. You just stay calm and recover."
Lu Yi's gaze relaxed instantly, and he slumped lazily in his chair. "It's so boring. It's so boring to stay in Lihua Garden."
Meng Anran ignored his complaints.
When the car arrived at Lihuayuan, Meng Anran saw him in, put down the ointment, said a few words to the maid, and transferred the maid to work at the Meng family villa.
"I've contacted a new servant and he'll be here in three hours. All the bodyguards are guarding the door, call them if there's anything." Meng Anran casually gave a few instructions, put on her high heels and prepared to leave.
When he was about to go out, Lu Yi's voice came from behind him: "Xiao Anran."
Her eyes flickered and she turned to look at him.
His silver hair was particularly eye-catching in the dark space. He still had a nonchalant grin on his face, but his eyes revealed a hint of reluctance.
Her blood-red lips trembled slightly, and she uttered a sentence that was almost begging: "Can you come to see me more often?"
Meng Anran seemed to be nailed to the spot, staring at those watery eyes for a long time before withdrawing her gaze and saying, "It depends on the situation."
She left, not knowing that after she closed the door, Lu Yi quickly walked to the window, looked at her back, looked at the receding car lights, until there was no trace of expectation in his sight, and he remained in that posture for a long, long time.
…
Meanwhile, on the other side of the city.
"Ming Jing! Hurry up!"
On the steps in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Liu Zhi turned around and looked at Ming Jing, who was a long way behind, and urged him loudly.
"Slow down!" Ming Jing was holding a file bag and a bouquet of flowers. He looked up at Liu Zhi helplessly and said, "Don't run so fast. You might fall down!"
"No!" Liu Zhi ran down a few steps, took his arm and pulled him to walk faster. "Hurry up, what will happen when people get off work? Today is an auspicious day specially calculated by your grandfather. The next auspicious day for marriage will have to wait until next month!"
"There are still three hours until the Civil Affairs Bureau closes." Ming Jing walked a few steps faster, helplessly yet dotingly. "You were so caught up in watching TV last night that you refused to go to sleep. And you stayed in bed until one in the afternoon today. Are you worried now?"
Liuzhi frowned unhappily and twisted his arm, "Just tell me whether I'm up or not!"
Ming Jing was embarrassed and couldn't do anything to her. "Yes, yes, you are the boss, whatever you say is right."
The marriage procedures were quite quick. I just filled in the information, submitted photos, and stamped it with the official seal, and then I got the red book.
The two went to the small garden of the Civil Affairs Bureau to take photos as a souvenir. Many newlyweds came here to take photos after receiving their marriage certificates.
They waited in line for a while and found a girl of about the same age to take a photo of them.
In the photo, Liu Zhi is holding a bouquet of flowers in one hand and a red book in the other hand, hooking it around Ming Jing's arm. Both of them are smiling happily.
"Oh, I didn't expect that I would get married early." Stepping out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Liu Zhi stared at the newly-issued marriage certificate in her hand and sighed inexplicably.
Then she glanced at the man beside her who was as calm as an old dog, but with the corners of his lips always slightly raised, and sighed again: "And he married you."
Ming Jing raised an eyebrow:???
Let me ask you, if you don't marry me, who else do you want to marry?
Ming Jing held her hand and gently rubbed the diamond ring on her ring finger with his fingertips: "Why? Do you regret it?"
"No." Liu Zhi curled her lips, but couldn't help but open the red book again and take a look, "I just think... it's so magical."
"What's so magical?"
"We actually got married." She closed the marriage certificate and put it in her bag, her voice light and airy: "Even in high school, I thought it would be great to be brothers with you for life. Even if we were to get married, it would just be a certificate and we could continue to do our own things."
Ming Jing chuckled: "What about now?"
Liu Zhi suddenly came over and kissed him on the cheek: "Now I think you're super handsome! Starting a family with you seems to be happier than being brothers."
The people around him looked at him with booing eyes. Ming Jing's ears flushed red, and he squeezed the hand holding the willow branch slightly. "Hey, let's go, let's go. I'll take you to eat hot pot tonight."
"I don't want to eat hot pot today, I want to eat barbecue."
"Then let's have barbecue."
As soon as she got in the car, Liuzhi couldn't wait to take out her cell phone and take a photo of the marriage certificate.
"Post on Moments?" Ming Jing glanced at her.
"No." Liu Zhi quickly tapped the phone screen, "Send it to An Ran baby. Of course my bestie wants to be the first person to know that I'm married!"
After sending the photo, Meng Anran replied quickly: [Happy wedding! I've moved to Riverside No. 9. Come over tonight for dinner to celebrate.]
"An Ran asked us to go to her new house for dinner tonight," Liu Zhi excitedly told Ming Jing, and began to think about what to bring. "We'll buy some fruit later, that's a must. Then we'll go to the home furnishing store to pick out some artistic ornaments as a housewarming gift, and then go to the winery to pick up two bottles of wine for tonight!"
Ming Jing was ashamed. In his wife's heart, best friends are more important than anything else.
It doesn’t matter, but we just got the marriage certificate today, so according to etiquette, we should have dinner with both sets of parents tonight!
Meng Anran only realized this problem after Qin Mu reminded her.
"I've never been married, so I neglected it." She chuckled.
Qin Mu raised his eyebrows and pinched her cheeks, "How about getting married now?"
"Goodbye." Meng Anran pulled his hand away, "I haven't finished the candy yet."
She sent another message to Liuzhi: [You guys should have dinner with your family tonight. Let's make an appointment for tomorrow night.]
After seeing the message, Liuzhi thought about it and felt that she should have a meal with her family first.
My mind raced, and I had a new idea: "I'll meet An Ran again tomorrow night. I'm going to make a list of bridesmaids, and then tell her tomorrow that I'll let her be my chief bridesmaid. It'll be a big surprise for her!"
Ming Jing: “…”
What kind of surprise is this?
But seeing Liu Zhi's excitement, he nodded indulgently: "Whatever you like."
