Chapter 14
Jiang Zhinian carefully held the photo album in his arms, and stuffed the work badge in it: "My college photo album."
Shi Ye respected her privacy and didn't ask any more questions. He turned around and continued packing.
Jiang Zhinian lay on the bed, looking at his back, and silently took out his cell phone from his pocket.
Snap——
If this world is a giant makeshift team, then the number of times a person suffers social death in a day should be limited.
Why did she forget to turn her phone to silent mode before taking the secret photo?
"I... wanted to post something on WeChat Moments, but accidentally clicked the wrong one."
Shi Ye said "hmm" but didn't say whether he believed it or not.
Jiang Zhinian opened his Moments guiltily and saw Shi Ye's profile picture.
He rarely posts on WeChat Moments, at least I haven't seen him post since we added each other as WeChat friends.
But just now, he sent one.
"Married."
Jiang Zhinian's hand trembled and the phone hit his face.
"ah--"
Social death, triple killing.
"Let me take a look." Shi Ye stood up and walked over, gently pressing her nose that was hit, and asked a few simple questions, "It should be fine."
He put Jiang Zhinian's phone aside: "Is this how you usually take care of yourself?"
Jiang Zhinian was too timid to speak.
…
It was already late when we finished packing.
"I'll pick you up at noon tomorrow. What do you want to eat?"
Jiang Zhinian realized later that Shi Ye was feeding him, or rather, feeding his child.
"I'll make it for you tomorrow. My cooking skills are pretty good."
Shi Ye thought about it and realized that he would be very busy all day tomorrow and could only squeeze out a little time for lunch. If he added cooking, there might not be enough time to move.
"Sure, I can eat anything."
Shi Ye finally confirmed that the location where the boxes were stacked would not affect Jiang Zhinian's actions, then opened the door and left.
Jiang Zhinian waited for a while, walked to the balcony, and sure enough, saw Shi Ye slowly walking away under the street light.
She returned to the room, took out the two marriage certificates, and found a place with the best lighting to take a photo.
His fingers hesitated for a long time before he sent it out with a fearless attitude.
"I got the certificate!"
After sending the message, I threw my phone aside and curled up in the quilt, regardless of the flood of messages in my circle of friends.
And somewhere she didn't know, Shi Ye's circle of friends was also occupied by various news.
"Shit, I didn't see that right."
"Shi Shen, your account has been hacked! Everyone, please be careful. If Shi Shen asks you to borrow money or confess his love to you recently, don't believe him!"
"I must have opened it incorrectly. Let me restart it."
"Help! My myopia seems to have worsened."
"Shi Shen, Shi Shen, please say something. Did you lose the game of dare?"
Shi Ye also didn't care about his circle of friends that was about to collapse. After returning home, he quickly finished the paper data that he had not finished during the day, and then opened several of the latest foreign academic papers to read.
Halfway through reading, I received a call from Director Liu.
"Hello, Uncle Liu."
"Cheng Fei just told me, are you married?"
Zheng Chengfei called him just now, but he didn't answer.
"Yes, it was just married today."
"No, you, why haven't I heard you say this before? This is too hasty. Where is the girl from? What does she do? What are her parents like? Do you know everything?"
"My college classmate is now a primary school teacher at No. 1 Middle School."
"Teacher from No. 1 Middle School, a provincial key school, that's not bad... No, you two were college classmates, and you started dating in school?"
Shi Ye lied with a white face and a calm heart: "No, we confirmed our relationship on a classmate's birthday some time ago. We had a crush on each other when we were in college, and we just happened to get together because of an opportunity."
"Getting married right after you get together?"
Although children under three months old are generally not told to others, Uncle Liu is like a family member to him, so he decided to explain it clearly.
Moreover, the baby will be born in 9 months. Whether it is a natural birth or a caesarean section, Uncle Liu's superb anesthesia skills are indispensable. There is no point in hiding it.
"She's seven weeks pregnant."
There was an eerie silence on the other side, followed by the sound of a cell phone falling to the ground.
"You kid...you kid, you're really..." The other party seemed to have been holding it in for a long time, and finally sighed, "If you don't make a sound, you'll be amazing."
After Mingming's astonished Shi Ye hung up the phone, he continued to read his thesis, which was no different from his previous life, ordinary, dull and focused.
The only difference was that he set an alarm on his phone to remind him to pick up his new wife at noon tomorrow.
On the other end, Director Liu, who had hung up the phone, sat on the sofa and couldn't help but burst into tears in front of his wife.
"I used to think Shi Ye was too calm and rational, like a program-generated robot, somewhat devoid of emotion. He couldn't love, nor did he need to be loved. He might end up alone. I didn't expect that he would suddenly become so big, not only getting married, but even having a child."
"What are you talking about? Xiaoye is just introverted and a little lonely, not like a robot. Oh, and let him bring his wife home. Although we are not Xiaoye's parents, Xiaoye is no different from our own child. As the in-laws, we should behave ourselves and not make her feel neglected."

The next morning, Jiang Zhinian got up early to buy groceries.
The vegetable market is very busy in the morning, and fresh dew is dripping on the leaves.
"Teacher Jiang, come and buy some groceries."
Jiang Zhinian greeted with a smile.
"I heard from my daughter that you are married?" Jiang Zhinian had helped her daughter with her writing, so she had added her on WeChat.
Jiang Zhinian nodded somewhat guiltily, probably because it was fake, and she still wasn't used to being married.
After buying groceries and returning home, Jiang Zhinian went back to his room and took out the photo album that he had rescued last night.
She hooked her finger and took out the work badge hidden inside.
That was the year she first enrolled in the school, and the school hosted a very famous British scholar who came to visit and give a lecture.
Shi Ye was chosen as the school's student representative because of his fluent British pronunciation.
At that time, Jiang Zhinian was still a rookie who knew nothing. He sat in the last row of the auditorium, quietly worshipping the boss.
Then, she heard the voice that she would never forget.
Shi Ye accompanied the foreign scholars and provided some supplementary translations for the school content that they did not understand.
For Jiang Zhinian, that was the first time she saw the light.
After the event ended, Shi Ye returned all the volunteer badges to the Organization Department of the Student Union. The senior student in charge then gave the task of destroying them to her, a handyman in the Organization Department.
After many twists and turns, she carefully kept this work badge until today.
