Chapter 324 Getting the marriage certificate, but being stood up all day!
"Well, that's the only way." Madam Song didn't stop her son from going abroad. She would go with him when the time came, as she was worried about her two grandsons.
They waited until almost noon, but Lu Qinghe still hadn't arrived!
Nan Xia was puzzled. Where had he gone? Wasn't he eager to get the marriage certificate yesterday? Why was he nowhere to be seen today?
She called him, but his phone was off.
"Has something happened? Or did Song Yanzhi do something to him?" She immediately looked at the man sitting on the sofa and asked in a low voice:
"You didn't kidnap Lu Qinghe, did you?"
"Why would I tie him up?" he asked, turning to the woman. The man hadn't shown up all morning, and she felt a little smug.
"Of course he's trying to stop us from getting our marriage certificate. You'd better let him go right now, or I'll call the police..." Nanxia said tentatively.
"Go ahead and report whatever you want. If your fiancé doesn't come to marry you, how can you blame me for that?" Song Yanzhi's lips were pursed into a tight line as he glanced at her indifferently.
Looking at his expression, Nanxia didn't think he was lying. It had nothing to do with him? Right, couldn't she ask her best friend? They lived together as siblings, so she would definitely know.
She immediately called her best friend, but the call was busy.
At this moment, Lu Qinghe was still lying on the large soft bed in the guest room with his assistant. He was drunk last night, and the woman's various teasing and seduction had kept him active all night, so he couldn't get out of bed this morning.
He's still sleeping soundly.
The heavy curtains in the guest room had been drawn tightly by Duan Xue last night, and the room was still dimly lit. A few minutes ago, she woke up, glanced at her phone, and saw that it was already noon!
He said last night that he was going to get his marriage certificate with that woman this morning, but now he's lying naked next to me.
If Nanxia knew, I wonder how disappointed and angry she would be?
She thoroughly enjoyed being cuckolded.
Duan Xue looked at the handsome man beside her, gently stroking her lower abdomen with one hand. She had to be strong, as these two days happened to be her ovulation period.
That's why she rushed to make an appointment with President Wang, and deliberately let him drink more alcohol last night.
"I hope to conceive his child—"
With the child, plus last night's intense video call with him, I'm sure I can drive Nan Xia away. Then, the position of Mrs. Lu will definitely be mine!
Duan Xue curled her lips into a smile. Suddenly, her phone screen lit up brightly. She had put it on silent last night and turned off his phone.
The call came from Lu Qingya.
"So annoying, why do they keep calling?" she muttered under her breath, still not answering the call, and not even bothering to wake Lu Qinghe.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep. It would be best if you slept until tonight, then you won't have to go get the marriage certificate today."
"Maybe Nanxia will be very angry and won't register the marriage with you!" Duan Xue smiled expectantly, really wanting to send the video to her right now.
Last night they did it in every corner of the guest room. The most exciting part was on the balcony, where he covered her mouth to stop her from making a sound...
-
Lu Qingya called her brother several times last night. At first, the calls went through, but no one answered, and then his phone was turned off.
I tried calling three times this morning, but the phone was still off.
She then called the assistant directly, and although the call went through, no one answered!
"What are those two doing? Where did that woman take my brother? He's not even answering his phone!" She sat on the sofa, muttering angrily.
Suddenly, her phone rang. Seeing it was her best friend calling, she answered, "Hello, Xiaxia, what's up?"
"Where's your brother?" Nan Xia asked.
"I don't know. I've been calling him since last night, but his phone has been off the whole time. Is there something you need from him?" she asked.
"Didn't he say he was going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get his marriage certificate this morning..." Nan Xia unconsciously pursed her lips. Had she been stood up? And now Song Yanzhi, who had been sitting here the whole time, was laughing at her.
With her two children and Mrs. Song present, she felt somewhat embarrassed.
While handling official business, Song Yanzhi glanced at her, a slight smile playing on his lips, and his mood suddenly improved.
"..." Lu Qingya's eyes widened in surprise. Her best friend had agreed to go get their marriage certificate with her brother? And today? He'd been wanting to marry her for six years!
Why did he suddenly disappear today? Did he get kicked in the head by a donkey?
"Did your brother go out for a business dinner with his assistant last night? Give me his assistant's phone number, I'll call and ask," Nan Xia suddenly said.
“I called her, but no one answered,” Lu Qingya said.
"Send it to me."
"Okay." She hung up the phone and sent her assistant's number to her best friend. She thought to herself, "There shouldn't be anything between my brother and his assistant, right?"
Why can't we get in touch with either of them?
Nan Xia dialed the assistant's number, but it rang for a long time without being answered—Song Yanzhi looked at her and said:
"The call went through, but no one answered. Either the person didn't want to answer at all, or she was afraid to answer. Either way, it proves that the assistant was guilty."
Nan Xia glanced at him and scoffed, "What if she didn't hear me?"
"Didn't your best friend call her too? She called so many times, how could she not hear it? As a qualified assistant, the first responsibility is to always have your phone with you and answer every call."
Song Yanzhi smiled and said to her, but he had a vague guess in his heart, and he didn't know if he was right.
Lu Qinghe had a business dinner with her assistant last night. The man didn't go home last night, which means he was taken to a hotel by the assistant. They can't be contacted either of them. Could it be...?
Did they sleep together?
And yet, he's still asleep and hasn't gotten out of bed?
Song Yanzhi took out his phone and silently sent a message to his bodyguards, asking them to check all the major hotels in the city to see if Lu Qinghe and his assistant stayed in separate rooms last night.
Or should we live together?
“…” Nan Xia frowned upon hearing his words, and a guess formed in her mind. No, Lu Qinghe was not that kind of person.
He usually seems quite serious. He coldly rejected all the pretty foreign girls who tried to seduce him and never flirted with anyone.
"The Civil Affairs Bureau is closed for lunch now, I'll go out and buy some." Mrs. Song saw through her intentions but didn't say anything, secretly pleased, thinking that maybe they wouldn't be able to get their marriage certificate today?
"..." Nan Xia turned to look at her aunt, but didn't say anything. She was still making excuses for that man in her mind. Maybe he had encountered something?
"If I've liked someone for six years and we're finally going to get our marriage certificate, I'd rush over even if it were raining knives," Song Yanzhi said deliberately.
Nanxia turned to look at him again, snorted coldly, picked up the fruit plate next to her, and silently started eating fruit—did he really not take getting a marriage certificate seriously?
-
It wasn't until around 5 p.m. that Lu Qinghe slowly woke up. After sleeping for so long, he felt his body finally recover.
He opened his eyes and saw that the room was still dark, so he thought it was still dark.
