Chapter 69 Chapter 69 "Excuse me, are you getting married voluntarily...
The next day was Valentine's Day. Yao Yingxia woke up a little late. When she opened her eyes, she saw two horrific bloody marks on Shen Xingchuan's chest. They were from when she had "accidentally" scratched him the previous day when she couldn't stand it any longer. Shen Xingchuan seemed even more excited at the time, whispering in her ear, "Disobedient cats should be disciplined early, so they won't dare to stretch out their claws again in the future."
Shen Xingchuan's teaching results were very significant. Yao Yingxia felt sore all over. He was really tireless last night, and he kept holding her after the end. With such strong arms pressing on her body, Yao Yingxia felt like she was being held down by the Five Finger Mountain and could not move at all.
She frowned slightly and looked at the evil man who was still sleeping. There was a smile on his lips, and she didn't know what sweet dream he was having.
Yao Yingxia struggled to break free from his arms, and just as she was about to get out of bed, he hugged her waist again. Shen Xingchuan didn't even open his eyes, but rubbed against her waist, like a clingy dog.
"Sleep a little longer."
Yao Yingxia didn't say anything.
Shen Xingchuan habitually reached under the hem of her pajamas, and found her peach-like soft flesh, plump and full. He sighed and said, "Xia Xia, how come you're growing so fast?"
If this continues, she might not be able to get up before noon. Yao Yingxia finally said, "I'm a little hungry."
He withdrew his hand, pressed Yao Yingxia down and kissed her a few more times before letting her go to the restaurant. After dinner, Shen Xingchuan announced the upcoming itinerary. "After we change, we'll go get our ID photos taken, and then go to the Civil Affairs Bureau this afternoon."
Hearing her just say "hmm", Shen Xingchuan endured it again and again, and finally did not show a cold face. He just said a little harshly: "Xia Xia, be happy today and don't make me angry."
After saying that, he went to the cloakroom and helped her get the clothes that had been prepared long ago.
He knew that everything he had gained was not glorious, and he had already pushed her into a corner, but he would occasionally lose control because he did not get the expected response. Recently, he could clearly feel that he seemed to want more and more, and he wished he could devour her completely until he swallowed her true heart.
This idea is too dangerous.
He ruffled his hair irritably.
Yao Yingxia came over at some point and said aggrievedly, "I'm not unhappy."
Her voice was soft, which made people feel depressed. In fact, Yao Yingxia had always been like this, without any big emotional ups and downs. The last time I saw her particularly happy was probably the day after the college entrance examination.
It’s been a long time since I last remembered it.
Shen Xingchuan regretted his harsh words and his voice became calm again: "Your brother's mother has been admitted to the VIP ward of Chuanhe Hospital today, just above Sister Nian Nian. I have also arranged a nurse for her."
His original intention was to reassure Yao Yingxia, but it became a threat to her ears.
"Thanks."
As if afraid that he would think such a dry thank you was too insincere, Yao Yingxia hugged him from behind again and asked: "What clothes did you help me pick out?"
His back felt soft after being ironed, and his good mood returned: "Wear this, it should look good for ID photos."
It was a light gold new Chinese cheongsam with the natural luster of silk. The Suzhou embroidery was delicate and elegant, and the jasmine pattern on it was lifelike. It should be even more beautiful in the sun.
Yao Yingxia opened her arms and smiled at him: "Help me put it on."
When she was trying to please him, she only smiled a little, but Shen Xingchuan was very fond of it. She was really gifted in coaxing people.
If he didn't have a lot of things to do today, he would not have given up. In the end, he forced himself to endure it, helped Yao Yingxia put on the cheongsam, and then put on the matching suit himself.
The living room had already been cleaned up, leaving only the scent of jasmine. Before leaving, Shen Xingchuan checked all the documents of the two people again. After confirming that nothing was missing, he drove her out.
The first stop was a photography studio. Yao Yingxia had thought she'd be able to leave after the photoshoot, but she wasn't expecting to be detained and fully made up. She glanced at the next table. Shen Xingchuan was also surrounded by several makeup artists, who were enthusiastically discussing the upcoming looks. Shen Xingchuan engaged them in a lively conversation, seemingly determined to present his best self perfectly, to be nailed down on the marriage certificate.
After fully understanding the customers' needs, the makeup artists finally started to work. They were busy with their hands but did not stop talking, and kept praising the customers, saying things like "Mr. Shen is more handsome than some popular artists who often work with us", "Ms. Yao is more beautiful than a certain actress who is famous for her beauty", "The two of them are really a match made in heaven, blah blah".
Yao Yingxia thought they were being a bit too noisy, but Shen Xingchuan was delighted. After a moment, he turned to Yao Yingxia and asked, "Will they also be responsible for our wedding styling?"
The corners of his mouth could no longer be suppressed, and his eyes were dark and bright, no longer shrewd, and he looked like someone with a low IQ.
Yao Yingxia didn't spoil his fun and nodded with a smile: "Okay."
In the next half hour, the compliments were endless. In fact, these makeup artists also responded to customers according to their preferences. Normally, they would not say so much to those aloof customers. However, they could see that Mr. Shen was a love-brained person, so the focus of the compliments in the second half shifted to how well the two of them matched.
Yao Yingxia was annoyed, but she still persisted with a smile on her face.
The person in charge of shooting the photos is an internationally renowned photographer who usually shoots magazine photos for top brands. This is the first time she has received such a non-technical job.
However, his professional qualities are there, and the photos he took are indeed much better than those taken by ordinary photographers. He easily captured the most natural and vivid expressions of the two people.
Shen Xingchuan was very satisfied after seeing them. He picked out his favorite one and had it developed. Next, he was finally going to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Perhaps because she was a little nervous, Yao Yingxia watched him run a red light and almost rear-end a car in front of him. In the end, he arrived at the parking lot in front of the municipal building without any danger.
The team of photographers responsible for the follow-up filming had been waiting for a long time and started filming immediately after recognizing the car.
Shen Xingchuan opened the car door for her and took Yao Yingxia to the trunk.
This was probably not a surprise. Just now, when Yao Yingxia was sitting in the passenger seat, she had already smelled the rich fragrance of flowers.
Sure enough, after opening the trunk, it was filled with beautiful champagne roses. Shen Xingchuan placed a bouquet of flowers in her hand, then bent down slightly and put his face closer.
Yao Yingxia understood what he meant and kissed his cheek. Then, when he stood up straight, she suddenly stood on tiptoe and pecked his lips.
Shen Xingchuan didn't expect her to attack him so suddenly. He was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, his ears were already red.
It was obvious that this man was incredibly thick-skinned at home. What shameless things had he not done? Yao Yingxia had not expected that he would be so "innocent" outside. However, this video was ironclad evidence to prove to Xiao An that she "deeply loved" Shen Xingchuan. She could do better. In this way, her brother would completely dispel his doubts and accept Shen Xingchuan's help with peace of mind.
When we arrived at the marriage registration office, the hall was not as crowded as we had imagined, and it even looked a bit deserted.
In recent years, the marriage rate has plummeted year by year, and the relevant departments are also very distressed. They specially started a live broadcast on Valentine's Day. Originally, they wanted to show that young people still have a strong desire to get married. As a result, the comments in the live broadcast room were all gloating, and they kept saying "No one really wants to get married now [dog head]".
It wasn't until the cameraman turned the camera on a couple that the comments section finally became lively:
A big man said: "Husband! Why is my husband in the Civil Affairs Bureau!"
No one can be trusted: "What do you mean your husband? I'm sitting in my husband's arms!"
The two gay IDs were arguing fiercely but no one paid any attention. Soon the word "wife" was all over the screen.
At that time, Shen Xingchuan was racking his brains to think of how to post the official announcement on WeChat Moments. He racked his brains but couldn't think of anything that was particularly satisfactory. He accidentally looked up at the big screen in front of him and found that he and Yao Yingxia were being broadcast live, and he could also see the barrage of comments.
The screen full of "wives" irritated him greatly; these people were thicker-skinned than a city wall. Shen Xingchuan suddenly reached out and embraced Yao Yingxia, who was distracted, with a bright smile.
The neat formation in the comment section was instantly broken:
"Tsk, you bastard."
"Look at how proud he is!"
"Take your hands off my wife!"
"Bully!"
"Give me back my wife!"
"Damn, isn't this Shen Xingchuan from Chuanhe Group?"
"Who is it?"
"You'll find out if you search for yourself."
At this moment, the number of people watching the live broadcast suddenly increased dramatically, exceeding 50,000. Someone else said, "I think I know your wife. She's my junior. Logically, she hasn't even graduated yet, so how come she got married?"
Yao Yingxia didn't expect to be recognized by people from the same school. This matter would eventually become known to everyone, but it didn't seem to have any impact on her. Shen Xingchuan was even a little happy. It would be better if everyone in S University knew that Yao Yingxia had obtained the marriage certificate, so that they could completely give up the idea in the future.
The director was afraid that someone would continue to leak information, so he quickly interrupted the live broadcast.
At this time, the service window finally called their number, and Shen Xingchuan solemnly extended his hand: "Xia Xia, let's go."
The staff asked a few routine questions, and both of them answered truthfully until they were asked: "Are you getting married voluntarily?"
Shen Xingchuan subconsciously tightened his grip on her hand. Yao Yingxia was probably in so much pain that her voice trembled a little: "Voluntary."
Shen Xingchuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, only to see the staff member looking at him with a frown: "Were you coerced?"
He immediately shook his head.
The other person muttered, "Then you don't say anything."
Shen Xingchuan could only smile foolishly: "I'm just too happy."
After completing all the formalities, he finally got the red book he had been longing for. He carefully unfolded it and took a photo.
When Shen Xingchuan walked out of the municipal building, he felt refreshed. Just as he was about to take Yao Yingxia out for a nice meal, he received a call from Song You: "Oh my god, you went to get a marriage certificate today? With our sister-in-law?"
Shen Xingchuan was somewhat surprised at his great magical powers: "How did you know?"
"Look at the group."
Shen Xingchuan clicked on it and saw that the screenshots of his live broadcast with Yao Yingxia had become a trending search with the title "Chuanhe Group CEO gets marriage certificate in a high-profile manner on Valentine's Day."
The selected screenshot happened to be the moment when he hugged Yao Yingxia and showed a bright smile. I don’t know if he had offended this media, but they didn’t even blur the comments scolding him in the screenshot. Fortunately, no information about Yao Yingxia was released.
The first friend who sent the press release to the group cursed: "Damn, this guy actually went to get the marriage certificate secretly."
Then a line of people lined up below: "It's still his dog."
It was rare that Shen Xingchuan did not argue with the group. He just transferred a few red envelopes to the group and contacted the group's public relations department, asking them to negotiate with the media and not disclose any personal information about Yao Yingxia.
Finally, he opened WeChat and posted a circle of friends. There were three pictures in total. The first one was the blurred marriage certificate. The second one was the day of the proposal, when Shen Xingchuan knelt on one knee in the sea of jasmine flowers and put the ring on Yao Yingxia's finger. The third one was a close-up captured by the photographer who followed him today. Yao Yingxia stood on tiptoe to kiss him against a background of champagne roses.
The caption only has one sentence: I have a wife [呲牙][比耶]
