When Song Ci walked in, the house was empty. At this hour, her mother would probably be gossiping with her friends, and her father would probably be at the office. However, she knew where the household registration booklet was, so she didn't call to ask. She went into the room, looked for it, and then took her belongings to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
As soon as she arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, she saw the parked car and the person waiting inside from afar. She looked at the person who would be tied to her for the rest of her life, and at that moment, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. But whether it was panic or something else, she had no time to care. Now that she had made her decision, no matter what it was, she had to go on.
The person opposite seemed to notice and looked up. She gave him a faint smile and walked straight past him.
In the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Because today is not a special day and it is a weekday, there are not many people here.
The marriage certificate was ready in half an hour.
"Congratulations to you two, and wish you happiness and a long-lasting marriage." The staff member smiled and blessed them, and handed the two shiny red marriage certificates to them.
Looking at the hot red notebook in her hand, she was a little dazed for a moment, and her heart was a little blank at this moment.
Getting married, getting married now?
She couldn't believe it. None of the scenes she had imagined before happened: a sensational proposal, a grand wedding, then being happy from the inside out, walking hand in hand into the Civil Affairs Bureau. None of these happened. She just got married like that. She couldn't believe it.
So much so that when she heard the words "Happy Wedding", she was still in a daze. She just subconsciously said thank you to the staff.
Compared to her trance, there was no trace of emotion on Mu Jingjue's cold and handsome face, except for a slight hesitation and pause when he held the red notebook.
After leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, Song Ci looked at the three large characters illuminated by the sunlight and found them a bit dazzling.
The two of them were standing there at the moment, feeling a little awkward.
Because Song Ci suddenly thought that after getting married, many things would change, and the first thing to change was the way they addressed each other.
Mu Jingjue was also a little uncomfortable, but he still called her by the same name as before.
"Miss Song," he called out somewhat stiffly.
"Mr. Mu, there's no need to be so polite. Just call me Song Ci." If he kept calling her Miss Song, it would be a bit strange, as if they were two strangers.
He gave a rare smile, "In that case, Miss Song, you don't have to call me Mr. Mu. Just call me Mu Jingjue."
"Yeah." She didn't want to talk about him anymore. She herself was a little uncomfortable with it, but compared to calling someone husband or wife, she felt that there was nothing wrong with calling them by their names.
"What did you want to say just now?" Song Ci asked him.
"When is it convenient for you to move to my place? I can arrange time to pick you up?" When he asked, Song Ci was a little stunned. She admitted that she had never thought about this question.
The issue that stands between them at the moment is where to live, but she is not the kind of person who is pretentious. Since they are married, they will have to live together sooner or later, so there is no need to refuse.
She thought for a moment and said, "Next Wednesday, you're busy, so you don't have to come pick me up specially. I can just ask the driver to pick me up then."
"It's okay. I'm free next Wednesday."
"Look, is tomorrow free for me? I'll pay a formal visit to your family." He married someone's daughter without a word, which seemed a bit ignorant of etiquette. He still had to go in person to explain and discuss the subsequent wedding arrangements.
She thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back tonight to discuss it and then give you the news."
"Okay, then add a contact number."
He took out his cell phone, and the two added each other on WeChat, left each other's phone numbers, and then left.
Originally, Mu Jingjue wanted to send her back, but Song Ci insisted on going back by herself. He happened to have something to do, so he left first.
After everyone left, she looked around, shook her head with a smile, and then took the bus back.
Along the way, traffic and scenery passed by outside the car window, one scene after another, just like my life of more than 20 years, and from now on, it is a new beginning.
When she got home and saw the house, she felt a little guilty. She got the marriage certificate without saying a word, not knowing how her parents would react. She hoped they wouldn't get angry.
She suppressed the ominous feeling in her heart and pretended to be happy as she walked in from outside.
