Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Confession
Chapter 61
It was already evening when we left the Lu family.
Sitting in Lu Peishi's car, Ruan Yan looked at the orange sunset outside the window gradually brightening the end of the sky, and felt in a good mood.
Lu Peishi glanced at her and said, "The password at home is 171615××."
He suddenly said something that completely caught Ruan Yan off guard: "Hmm?"
Lu Peishi said as a matter of course: "We will live together after marriage, so I'll tell you the password so that you can enter and exit the house conveniently."
Ruan Yan was still stunned. The certificate was obtained so quickly that she actually forgot to take this into consideration.
Yes, they will definitely live together after they get married.
Lu Peishi continued, "...My current residence is close to your Ruan Mansion, but I also have a house right across from the Ruan family. It will be more convenient for you to commute to get off work. It depends on where you prefer to live."
Ruan Yan hesitated for a moment, then said truthfully, "Actually, I'm a little unprepared..."
Lu Peishi raised his eyebrows faintly: "What are you referring to?"
She admitted: "It's about living together."
Did they get married right away after confirming their relationship? There was barely any time to relax, which was quite a challenge for a complete love novice like her.
Lu Peishi hesitated for a moment and replied vaguely, "Hmm."
She added, "At least you have to give me a few days to get used to it."
"That's fine," he said. "I'm going out of town for a few days, so you can take this opportunity to adjust your mindset."
That was great, Ruan Yan’s anxious mood was relieved.
"You can prepare to move your belongings over, too. You can take your time. It's only two steps away anyway."
"If you want to change the layout and decoration of your home, that's up to you. Just follow your own preferences and habits. I have no objection."
"good--"
Looking at her curved eyebrows and a happy look, Lu Peishi felt a little disappointed.
He was going on a business trip for several days right after getting married. Wouldn't she feel bad about him leaving? He had to make a big decision not to reschedule his trip.
But when she heard the news that he was on a business trip, her expression suddenly relaxed, as if she didn't care at all whether he stayed or left.
He was the only one there who was reluctant to leave, feeling inseparable. It was so sad and depressing.
Ruan Yan was bored, so she took out the marriage certificate and looked at it again.
It was the first time she had seen a live marriage certificate, and it was quite magical.
She turned to the page with the stamped photo of the two of them and looked at it over and over again.
"You look quite handsome in this photo." She said, pointing at Lu Peishi's photo.
Lu Peishi glanced over there: "It's okay."
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Seeing her fiddling with the marriage certificate over and over again like a curious child, his eyes became more gentle.
Forget it, there's no need to worry about so many details.
Anyway, he has obtained the marriage certificate now, and he will have plenty of time to spend with her in the future.
Thinking of this, my mood automatically changed to sunny.
After returning home at night, Ruan Yan lay on the sofa in the bedroom and couldn't help but pick up the marriage certificate and look at it over and over again.
It felt strange that from now on she was married.
Thinking of what Lu Peishi had just said in the car, about moving in with him, she couldn't help but blush.
After a while, she sat up from the sofa again.
In addition to Wen Ying, she also has to tell this news to another person who is very important to her.
"I got the certificate."
"What did you say?" Xiaoman, who was eating, almost choked. "Who... who are you talking to?"
She suddenly felt like joking: "Guess what?"
Xiaoman asked, "Is it someone I know?"
She: “Yes.”
When Xiaoman saw someone she knew, her first reaction was: "Don't tell me it's that person..."
Hearing Xiaoman's extremely disgusted tone, she directly denied: "It's not that scumbag, don't worry."
"That's good," Xiaoman said, relieved, her tone much more relaxed. "Who is it then?"
"Lu Peishi," he added, "I obtained the certificate under my real identity, so you don't have to worry too much."
Xiaoman was still a little shocked, but after thinking about it, she felt it was reasonable.
"Oh, yeah. You said last time that he'd discovered our secret, and he'd been actively helping me when I was in the hospital... I should have guessed something was going on between you two, but I didn't expect it to progress so quickly..."
In fact, even she herself found it hard to imagine that her relationship with Lu Peishi would change so much in such a short period of time.
After expressing their feelings to each other, they skipped the dating stage and went straight to getting married and getting a marriage certificate, which made her feel very flustered.
"Congratulations to you guys. Although I don't really know him, he sounds like a very nice person." Xiaoman could strongly feel her happiness and was sincerely happy for her.
"Thank you," she said after a moment's hesitation, "there's something else I want to discuss with you."
"You suddenly look so serious, what's wrong?"

The next day, at Ruan Mansion.
Wen Ying, who had just returned from the airport, put away her luggage, took a shower, and went downstairs to drink the chicken soup that Ruan Yan had specially asked Aunt Wang to prepare.
Yesterday on the phone, she heard from Ruan Yan the news that they had obtained the marriage certificate.
It only took a few seconds from the moment of shock to the happy acceptance of the fact.
Although Ruan Yan had said before that she had given up on that scumbag Jia Yanyuan, Wen Ying was still a little worried.
After all, Ruan Yan had been deeply in love with that man and had quarreled with her family several times. She was worried that she still had feelings for him and was grieving alone. She was even more afraid that she would not be able to resist the brainwashing of the scumbag and would soften her heart and forgive him again.
She was glad that Ruan Yan had really made up her mind this time. When she found out that her marriage partner was Lu Pei, although she was surprised, she was relieved.
She had known Lu Peishi for many years, and she had a relatively good understanding of his personality and conduct.
During the period when Zhuo Ming was unknown and in the most difficult period, he, as a rich kid, never looked down on Zhuo Ming. He gave Zhuo Ming the greatest respect both internally and externally, and always regarded Zhuo Ming as his best friend.
This is something that Wen Ying found very touching and rare.
Looking at Wen Ying who was silently drinking chicken soup, Ruan Yan couldn't figure out her psychological activities, so she apologized obediently: "Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't discuss the marriage certificate with you in advance, and I made the decision without your permission. I also did it without your permission while you were on a business trip. I was wrong."
Wen Ying said slowly, "Such a last-minute decision, was it your idea or his?"
This question made Ruan Yan not know how to respond. It was indeed Lu Peishi who first proposed marriage, but after she rejected it, this time she took the initiative to say that she wanted to marry him.
"Is it Pei Shi?" Wen Ying said, "I've known him for so long, and he doesn't seem to have paid special attention to any member of the opposite sex around him, except you."
When Ruan Yan was framed by her colleagues, he deliberately called to inform her. He rarely attended private events but was willing to attend Ruan Yan's birthday party. When she was sick and hospitalized, he not only actively helped but also visited her often. Every time he arrived, his eyes followed Ruan Yan closely.
The most important thing is that he has a very bad attitude towards Jia Yanyuan. When the two appear together, his reaction is particularly obvious. It is not the disdain in the face of a flatterer, but more like the deterrent aura emitted by a male animal when meeting a competitor.
She had some speculations before, but she never really thought about it.
So what happened this time was expected, but it was reasonable.
"He has always been a cautious and prudent person. The fact that he lost his mind and acted so impulsively shows that he is sincere to you." Wen Ying was very relieved.
That night he suddenly mentioned the scene of going to get the marriage certificate the next morning. When Ruan Yan thinks about it now, she still feels a little excited.
The burning sensation, the accelerated heartbeat, and the dense and numbing feeling made her ears feel hot.
Seeing Ruan Yan's expression, Wen Ying narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Have you set a wedding date?"
"Not yet. I want to discuss it with my sister."
"What did the Lu family say?"
"Uncle Lu said he respected our ideas and let us make the decision," Ruan Yan recalled Lu Zhenlin's words that day. "Uncle Lu also said that our two families should have a meal together."
"Well, this is necessary. We should have a formal meeting. Uncle Lu is the elder, so the time should be decided by them." Thinking that there are still many things to prepare for the wedding, Wen Ying is excited and nervous.
Needless to say, the reason for his excitement was that he was nervous because he had no experience and was afraid that he would not be well prepared and would be impolite, thus embarrassing Ruan Yan.
"Actually... I have something else I want to confess to you." Ruan Yan swallowed, her palms slightly sweating.
Wen Ying had finished her chicken soup and wiped her mouth with a tissue. "You've already gotten your marriage certificate so quickly, so I shouldn't be scared by anything else."
Seeing Ruan Yan's expression was a little reserved, Wen Ying said again: "I was joking, go ahead."
The living room was very quiet. Ruan Yan had already sent Aunt Wang and the others away in advance, and now only she and Wen Ying were left at home.
When she decided to marry Lu Peishi, she was already thinking about how to tell Wen Ying about this.
Rather than letting Wen Ying know the truth passively if things deviate from the expected development trajectory or in other unavoidable circumstances, it is better for her to tell the truth herself while everything is still under control.
Minimizing all damage as much as possible is her most important consideration at the moment.
She pursed her lips and said, "Do you remember I asked you about the missing child from the Ruan family?"
Wen Ying nodded: "Are you talking about your twin sister Ruan Qian?"
"Well," Ruan Yan's voice was a little muffled, "Actually, we've found her."
"Really?" Wen Ying's eyes suddenly lit up, her face filled with uncontrollable surprise. "Have you really found Ruan Qian? Where is she now?"
Ruan Yan raised her head, dug her fingernails deep into her palms to suppress her pounding heart.
"It's me," she said word by word, looking into Wen Ying's eyes. "That person is me."
