During the Lantern Festival, there were still no leads from Tianning City.
I don't know if we need to go over there.
That day, my mother called me and asked me to bring Wu Shiyi home so we could have a family reunion dinner together.
I always felt there was something fishy going on; my mother clearly wanted to make Wu Shi her ideal son-in-law.
But my mother invited Wu Shi after all, and it would be impolite of me to force him not to go.
So he reluctantly asked Wu Shi if he wanted to go over.
"Hey, senior brother, my mom asked me to invite you to our house. It seems she wants to take you as her son-in-law!"
"What kind of spell did you cast on my mom? She's been thinking about you all the time, and she keeps talking about you to me every few days."
My tone was a mix of helplessness and provocation.
After all, Wu Shi is a shy person, and teasing him can bring me some fun.
But Wu Shi was not as shy or embarrassed as I had expected; instead, he readily agreed.
“Great! I’ve been free lately, so I’ll come visit your aunt.” Wu Shi said with a smile.
You know what, Wu Shi actually has a certain handsomeness when he smiles.
Actually, I also have a good impression of Wu Shi. After spending so much time together, I've discovered that he has many good qualities.
Both his character and his interactions with me made me feel comfortable.
But this feeling is strange, after all, he is my senior brother's disciple and my master's disciple.
What would it be like if the two of us got together?
It would be great if we could stay together forever, but if we broke up, how awkward would it be to see each other?
Especially in this Taoist temple, you see each other all the time.
However, if it's just for a meal, it shouldn't be a problem.
At this moment, Wu Shi leaned closer and looked down at me: "Xiao Xi, I remember someone saying last time that we should get our marriage certificate on the fifteenth of the first lunar month?"
Holy crap, how does he still remember this!
I stammered, "Did I say that? When was it? I don't quite remember."
Wu Shi squinted, his face full of mockery: "Oh, I didn't say it was you. Why aren't you admitting it?"
"Hahaha, just kidding! What should I buy for your aunt when we go to your house?"
"I haven't spent much time with my aunt, so I don't know what she likes."
After Wu Shi teased me like that, I felt my cheeks getting even hotter.
What should I do? I can't hear what Wu Shi is saying at all right now. My mind is filled with only two words: get the marriage certificate.
But the next moment, I had a sudden thought: "Let's buy anything and get a marriage certificate."
Oh my god, what nonsense am I talking about!
Wu Shi was stunned: "Xiao Xi, what did you say? You're really going?"
"I treated you like a junior sister, but you...!"
At that moment, I didn't care about anything else. I figured I'd get stabbed whether I stuck my neck out or not!
Since the words have already been spoken, might as well be reckless!
I refuse to believe that he would dare to bully me after we got our marriage certificate!
If he dares to bully me, I'll go straight to my master to stand up for me!
I grabbed Wu Shi and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Aren't you very brave? Come on, my household registration book is in the house. Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau now."
I pulled Wu Shi into my house, and I found my household registration book in the house.
I picked up the household registration booklet and waved it around: "Why are you acting like a coward now?"
But Wu Shi didn't respond to me; instead, he put his hands on my shoulders.
"Xiao Xi, I hope this isn't just a momentary impulse. What do you think of me?"
"Can you really entrust your life to me?"
"If you say yes, I don't mind."
Hearing Wu Shi's words, I hesitated. I felt like I had gone a bit too far with my joke.
I kept asking myself: Chen Xi, what kind of feelings do you have for Wu Shi?
Do you really like him?
Or was it a moment of spite, a burst of impulsiveness, that led her to entrust her life to him, while simultaneously interfering in his life?
I sat on the bed in silence for a long time. Wu Shi didn't say anything more, just stayed quietly by my side.
After a long while, I stood up, put the household registration book in my pocket, grabbed Wu Shi's wrist, and walked out of my room.
That's right, I should have realized long ago that I like Wu Shi. I don't fall in love with someone on a whim.
This is based on several months of interaction; a few months is enough time to get a general idea of a person's character.
Wu Shi is considerate but not frivolous, confident but not arrogant. He doesn't talk much, but he does a lot.
I don't think I'll ever have such a good opportunity again.
"Wu Shi, whether you understand or not is up to you."
"I am not acting on impulse, and I will not jeopardize my happiness for the rest of my life because of a momentary impulse."
"I'm sorry, but if I don't take advantage of this momentum, I'm afraid I'll find it hard to say it. I think I'm not brave enough."
"I know this is strange, but I'd also like to know what you think."
Wu Shi listened quietly to me finish speaking, then stepped forward and hugged me tightly.
"Xiao Xi, you are a good girl. In fact, no girl I have ever met is like you."
"I'm not giving you a 'nice guy' card. I'm saying, please lend me the key to the door of your life for a hundred years, and I'll repay the interest with my future actions."
My cheeks were wet, and at that moment I didn't care about any so-called restraints.
Those are just excuses for my own cowardice.
Just like the master and mistress, they also had their own stories, and eventually became a couple.
I think Master will understand us.
We hugged each other for a long time, but eventually we had to separate.
At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau
Wu Shi and I hesitated to take a single step.
"Xiao Xi, aren't we being a little too hasty?"
I rolled my eyes at Wu Shi. Isn't that obvious? He's definitely in a bit of a hurry.
"The arrow is on the bowstring, it must be released! Senior brother, charge!"
I grabbed Wu Shi's arm and started walking forward, with Wu Shi following behind.
Upon arrival at the registration area, the staff began a series of procedures:
"Gentlemen, are you two registering your marriage voluntarily?"
Wu Shi and I exchanged a smile and nodded at the same time.
The staff member smiled slightly and pointed to the side: "Please wait a moment while they take photos over there."
The photographer, holding up his camera, said, "You two, come closer, look at the camera, smile, okay, don't move and hold on."
The flash went off, and the photo shoot was over.
The photos were developed and pasted onto the marriage certificate.
The staff stamped the registration form: "Congratulations to the two of you! Wishing you a long and happy marriage!"
Wu Shi and I accepted the marriage certificate, thanked them, and left the Civil Affairs Bureau.
And at this moment, I am the wife of the man in front of me.
Wu Shi looked at me with eyes full of tenderness.
I didn't know how to respond, so I just gave a slight smile.
I held out my hand: "Okay, let's go home together, honey!"
