Chapter 12 Okay, let’s get the certificate tomorrow
Xu Jialan opened his mouth, "But you clearly..."
Much better than her.
Shen Xichuan smiled, as if he knew what she wanted to say, and interrupted her, “Whatever it is, don’t you think we are destined to be together?”
Xu Jialan was stunned.
"Is this your first blind date?" he asked.
Xu Jialan nodded.
The man curled his lips, "It's my first time too."
He paused for a few seconds. "The chances of meeting a high school classmate on your first blind date shouldn't be high, right?"
Xu Jialan stammered, "I haven't calculated it."
Shen Xichuan laughed again, “On the day we met again, God let me save you, and then we went on a blind date, and God arranged for me to meet you again, isn’t this fate?”
"……yes."
But Xu Jialan never dared to even think about this possibility.
"Since it's fate, do you want to try it with me?"
Xu Jialan's mind went blank, "I..."
"Xu Jialan, let's get married, okay?"
Shen Xichuan stared into her eyes.
The street lights shone on him, and there was a familiar smell at the tip of his nose.
Those deep eyes stared at her intently, as if bewitching her.
Xu Jialan said, "...Okay."
After she finished speaking, she realized what she had said.
She agreed?
Shen Xichuan raised his lips, a smile overflowing from his eyes, “Thank you for agreeing.”
Xu Jialan looked at his smile, pursed her lips slightly, and was reluctant to say no.
The man raised his hand and rubbed her head gently.
"It's late. Go back and rest early. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
Xu Jialan felt the warmth of his palm and his heart beat faster.
"What are you picking me up for?"
"Get the certificate."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan was stunned. "Tomorrow? So soon?"
Shen Xichuan narrowed his eyes slightly, “Faster?”
“…Not fast?”
I think she just agreed, right?
Shen Xichuan said calmly, “Not fast.”
Xu Jialan: “…”
The man stared at her, "Don't you want to?"
"No, I just..."
Shen Xichuan looked at her for a few seconds, then spoke in a low and pleasant voice, “Xu Jialan, I want to marry you, and I’m serious about it, so if you have any concerns, you can tell me directly.”
Xu Jialan looked at him quietly for a long time.
That face was familiar to her.
He had entered her dreams countless times, but each time it was like a bubble, disappearing as soon as she woke up.
"The decision is yours. If you don't want to..."
"Okay." Xu Jialan said.
Now it was Shen Xichuan's turn to be stunned, "What did you say?"
Xu Jialan looked at him seriously and said, "We'll get the marriage certificate tomorrow."
Shen Xichuan looked at her for a few seconds and chuckled softly, “Okay, we’ll get the certificate tomorrow.”
Xu Jialan felt a little uncomfortable, his cheeks flushed, "Do I... need to prepare any data to get the marriage certificate?"
“The household registration book and ID card will be enough.” Shen Xichuan said.
Xu Jialan nodded, "Okay."
Shen Xichuan couldn’t help it, and rubbed her head again, “Go back and rest early, and wait for me to pick you up.”
…
When Xu Jialan got out of the car and walked into the residential area, he was still a little dazed.
Until I returned to the apartment, turned on the lights, and looked at everything familiar.
Xu Jialan finally came back to his senses from his trance.
She took out her cell phone from her bag and made a call.
It took a while before the other side answered the phone.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Xu Jialan said directly, "I agree."
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
Xu Jialan added, “Just now, Shen Xichuan asked me if I wanted to marry him, and I agreed. He also said that we should go get the certificate together tomorrow.”
There was a sound of gasping.
"Holy crap?! Are you serious?!" An Yuening was shocked.
Hearing his friend's voice, Xu Jialan smiled easily, "Yeah, really."
"Oh My God!"
An Yuening sat on the office chair in the study, holding her mobile phone and pressing the palm of her other hand against her forehead.
Her eyes were hot, "Lanlan, congratulations on getting what you wished for."
Not all secret loves have the chance to see the light of day.
Not all secret crushes have the chance to marry the person you like.
Xu Jialan smiled, a hint of laughter in his eyes, "Thank you, Ningning."
An Yuening suddenly thought of something and quickly picked up the worksheet beside her to look at it.
"I won't be able to return home until next month at the earliest."
She put down her worksheet and said, "Wait for me. I'll come back to celebrate with you. By the way, let me meet your husband."
A rare blush appeared on Xu Jialan's fair cheeks. "Okay."
The two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone.
Xu Jialan walked into the bathroom and washed his face.
The cold water brushed across my face, bringing a sense of clarity.
She looked up at the mirror, drops of water sliding down her face to her chin.
They...are actually getting married.
…
The other side.
After Shen Xichuan watched Xu Jialan walk into the community.
He did not drive away immediately.
Instead, he made a phone call.
As soon as the call was connected, he said, "I want to get married."
It seemed like they had heard some shocking news.
"You...what did you say? Get married? Who's getting married?"
Shen Xichuan rarely repeated with patience, “I want to get married.”
He glanced at the time on his watch and said, "I'm going back to the team to ask you for the application form. I need to ask for leave tomorrow morning to get the certificate."
"Wait, wait, we're getting the certificate tomorrow? Are you crazy? How can we get the certificate tomorrow in time?"
Shen Xichuan said, “If I don’t get the certificate tomorrow and my wife runs away, will you be responsible?”
The vein on the man's forehead throbbed. "Okay, okay, okay. Then come back and fill out the application form."
After that, he didn’t want to listen to what Shen Xichuan said anymore, so he hung up the phone directly.
Shen Xichuan didn't mind being hung up, he raised his eyebrows, looked up at the entrance of the community, and then drove away.
…
Return to the team.
Shen Xichuan went straight to the office and knocked on the door lightly.
"Enter."
Hearing the sound, Shen Xichuan pushed the door open and walked in.
The man sitting in the office chair looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly. "Didn't you say before that you wouldn't get married? Why are you suddenly getting married again? And you want to get the marriage certificate tomorrow? Are you in such a hurry?"
Asked several questions in a row.
Shen Xichuan raised his eyes slightly, reached out and took away the signed marriage application form on his desk.
"Captain Fan, you asked me so many questions at once. How do you want me to answer you?"
As he spoke, he lowered his eyes to look at the application form in his hand, and after confirming that it was correct, he put it away.
Captain Fan glared at him and said, "Then answer them one by one."
Shen Xichuan put away the application form before speaking, “Before, it was before. Before, it was because I hadn’t met the person I wanted to marry, so I didn’t want to get married.”
Captain Fan looked at him and asked, "So you have encountered it now?"
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows with a hint of smile, “Yes, that’s why I came to you for the application form so anxiously.”
Captain Fan: “…”
He recalled some of the words he had just heard in the team.
"Could your marriage partner be the female professor you rescued from the laboratory fire earlier?"
