Seeing her dazed expression, Ji Yuzhi couldn't help but smile.
He produced a bouquet of flowers from his side and repeated, "Let's get married today. Marry me today."
He suddenly stood up, placed the bouquet on the table, and took out a ring box from his trouser pocket. It was then that Zhen Tian noticed that Zhizhi's suit was brand new, unlike anything she had ever seen before.
Ji Yuzhi knelt on one knee, opened the ring box, and a dazzling diamond ring was displayed before everyone's eyes.
"Do you remember the stone I asked you to take?" Ji Yuzhi smiled slightly. His legs were trembling from kneeling on the ground because he was nervous, but his face showed no emotion. "My parents found it by chance at work. They gave it to you so early to tell you that Ji Yuzhi had wanted to marry you a long time ago."
Zhen Tian sat there in shock, both surprised and moved.
This wasn't the first time Zhizhi had proposed, but she was still young then, and it seemed she hadn't quite figured out the idea of marriage.
Now that she's being proposed to again, all she has to do is nod and she'll be a member of the Ji family in the next second.
It feels different.
"You know what I'm facing right now; one wrong step could lead to an abyss. I never thought I'd propose to you when I was at my lowest point. But I don't regret getting to this point. I believe I have the ability to protect you as before, and I swear I will love you more every day than the day before."
"So, Sweetie, do you want to marry me now!"
Zhen Tian's tears started falling as he said he had wanted to marry her so long ago.
Without even blinking, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll marry you."
There were quite a few onlookers, and everyone cheered for the couple until Zhen Tian agreed.
“Go ahead, I’ve prepared the household registration book for you.” Lu Lin handed Zhen Tian’s household registration book with red eyes: “I’ve fantasized about the day my sister gets married, and I know it will be that bastard Ji Yuzhi. I’ve imagined many scenarios, but none of them are as painful as this moment. My sister is no longer my sister.”
"Brother!" Zhen Tian looked at him, her voice choked with emotion.
"I regret it. Don't get married. I'll take care of you for the rest of my life." Lu Lin hugged Zhen Tian and cried bitterly.
Zhen Tian was also crying uncontrollably.
Yuan Yuan was both touched and angry; this man was just making things worse.
Ye Qingyan and Yang Tao were also deeply moved, holding hands and shedding tears.
"Alright, the Civil Affairs Bureau will be closing soon. Let Tian Tian and Brother Ji go." Yuan Yuan pulled Lu Lin aside: "You go first, we'll be there shortly."
Ji Yuzhi nodded and took Zhen Tian's hand: "Let's go."
"Mm." Zhen Tian looked back at everyone every few steps.
Once in the car, Zhen Tian finally had a moment to look at the household registration book in her hand.
Tears blurred her vision.
"Will you regret it?" Ji Yuzhi sat down but didn't start the car. Instead, he suddenly asked this question.
"Regret?" Zhen Tian looked up at him.
"Yes, you'll regret it. But once you get the marriage certificate today, you can't regret it anymore. Take advantage of the fact that you still have time." Ji Yuzhi looked at her seriously: "I might end up with nothing. Would you still marry me then? I have to give you a choice. Sweetie. Even if we can't be husband and wife, I'll always be your brother."
"Stop talking nonsense, drive." Zhen Tian leaned in and bit his lip hard. "Let's go! Let's get married!"
"No regrets?"
"I will only marry Ji Yuzhi in this lifetime, I will not marry anyone else. Hurry up and we'll be off work soon!" Zhen Tian wiped away her tears and urged him on.
Ji Yuzhi chuckled, rubbed away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and the car shot off like an arrow.
There weren't many people around when they left work.
By the time everyone arrived, the two had already filled out the forms.
"Shouldn't we take the picture now?" Ye Qingyan asked.
"Um!"
Huo Qingming looked at her.
What are you looking at me for?
"How do you know so much about the process?" he asked with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
"Of course I checked last night," Ye Qingyan said matter-of-factly. "What else could it be!"
Huo Qingming gave her a meaningful look.
Ji Yuzhi took off his suit jacket, took Zhen Tian's jacket, and handed it to his friend next to him.
Zhen Tian's clothes were prepared by Ji Yuzhi, and she must have been wearing the same white shirt underneath.
Only at this moment did Zhen Tian become a little nervous.
She kept asking, "Is my makeup ruined?! I should have cried later. I look so ugly in the photos."
"No, no, it's perfectly fine. Do you think your expensive waterproof makeup would be ruined so easily by crying?"
Despite saying that, Ye Qingyan still took a tissue and rubbed it all over Zhen Tian's face, and finally added a touch of red to her lips.
"Are you ready? Can we take pictures?"
"That's fine."
"Am I pretty?" Zhen Tian asked Ji Yuzhi, seizing the last moment.
"nice."
Ji Yuzhi looked at her with a smile, and Zhen Tian smiled too.
This scene was also captured by the photographer.
In the end, the photo chosen for the marriage certificate was the rather old-fashioned one of the two looking directly at the camera, but the smiles on their faces were very sweet.
The staff at the window repeatedly asked, "Have you thought it through? Once this seal is closed, the law will take effect."
"I've made up my mind, I won't regret it, so hurry up!"
The staff member had never seen the woman in such a hurry before, and she took a few more glances at her.
Five minutes later, two freshly printed marriage certificates were ready.
Zhen Tian held the certificate, her fingers tracing the photo over and over again.
His mouth was practically stretched to his ears in a wide grin.
"Mrs. Ji, welcome." Ji Yuzhi hugged her and whispered softly in her ear.
"Mr. Ji, thank you for always loving me." Zhen Tian buried her face in his chest, her eyes welling up with tears again.
Little girls are most prone to sentimentality. Yang Tao, Ye Qingyan, and Yuan Yuan all laughed and cried along with them.
Lu Lin was also plunged into despair.
Only Huo Qingming, the only one who understood, watched everyone sigh.
Zheng An and his group arrived at this time.
"How's it going? What step have you taken? Have you taken the photos yet?" Zheng An asked as soon as he came in.
"We've already got the certificates, what do you say?"
"Wow... how could it be so fast!"
As Zheng An howled, Feng Li, Zhao Zeyuan, and Wen Jiujiu also came in.
"Where have you been? You've been taking so long to get here."
“On our way here, we saw a shop with a rose bear in front of it and thought we'd give it to our eldest son and his wife.”
The group followed Zheng An outside, imagining in their minds what the rose bear would look like based on his description.
They fell silent when they saw a truck outside the door, and on the truck, a rose 'teddy' over two meters long wrapped in a transparent gift box.
“This really adds atmosphere to a wedding. It’s just a bit pricey.” Zheng An continued rambling on, “This little thing cost the combined monthly salary of the four of us!”
"This is a calf? This is a giant bear!" Yang Tao exclaimed.
Zhen Tian burst out laughing upon hearing this: "I absolutely love it!"
