The next day.
The ship on the island really set sail on time.
Jiang Qingyue carried her luggage and excitedly followed Zhou Zhengting to the city.
As soon as she got ashore, Jiang Qingyue planned to take a bus directly to the registration office to complete the formalities first.
But Zhou Zhengting said, "Let's go to the train station to buy tickets first. It's the peak season after the holidays. If you go too late, you might not be able to buy tickets."
Jiang Qingyue thought about it and agreed, so they took a bus to the train station together.
The train station was indeed crowded with people, and there was a long queue of people buying tickets.
After finally getting to the front of the line, Jiang Qingyue hurriedly shouted to the window, "Comrade, buy a train ticket to Beijing tomorrow."
"The earliest is tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock. Hard seats are 8.60 yuan each. Do you want one?"
"Yes!" Jiang Qingyue hurriedly took out the money.
Before she could take it out, Zhou Zhengting grabbed her.
He looked toward the window and asked, "Comrade, this is a soldier's family member who is here to visit relatives. Can you help me get a berth?"
When the other party saw Zhou Zhengting wearing a military uniform and looking righteous, he hesitated for a moment as he was about to punch the ticket.
Then he stood up and said, "Wait a minute."
After saying that, he walked inside.
Jiang Qingyue pulled his sleeve and said, "No need for a sleeper berth. I can just sit back down."
Zhou Zhengting smiled and said, "It's okay. You will no longer be a military family member soon. You will enjoy special treatment for the last time."
Jiang Qingyue was stunned and was about to speak.
The conductor came back and said, "I can spare you a berth. How about 12.90?"
Zhou Zhengting immediately handed over the prepared banknotes, "Yes."
After leaving the ticket office, Jiang Qingyue planned to return the money to him.
But Zhou Zhengting stuffed the ticket into her hand and said, "Forget it. The registration office will be closed soon. If you don't hurry up, you will have to wait until the afternoon."
"Then let's go."
The two of them went to the registration office on time.
I originally thought there would be some twists and turns, but the process turned out to be surprisingly smooth.
The clerk was probably waiting to finish the get off work and go home, so he just asked a few simple questions and then took the marriage certificate from the two.
Soon two divorce certificates were issued.
After leaving the registration office, both of them couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
This divorce was finally completed after two years of delay.
Jiang Qingyue smiled and stretched out her hand, "Zhou Zhengting, I finally give you freedom."
She also tried her best to repay what she owed him.
Now, the two of them are even now!
Zhou Zhengting's heart was filled with bitterness.
At first, he was looking forward to this day in his dreams.
But now he never dreamed that filing for divorce was the thing he regretted most in his life.
The moment his marriage certificate was taken away, he felt so heartbroken.
I wanted desperately to get the marriage certificate back and beg Jiang Qingyue once again not to divorce me.
But looking at the expectation on her face, I finally didn't have the courage.
Looking at the hand Jiang Qingyue extended, Zhou Zhengting hesitated for a moment, lowered his eyes, stretched out his hand and shook it.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Jiang Qingyue, to celebrate our successful divorce, I will take you out for dinner and then go shopping for some things! Thank you for taking care of me for so many days."
Jiang Qingyue waved her hands quickly, and before she could say no, Zhou Zhengting took her luggage.
"Jiang Qingyue, this is the last time, can you please stop refusing all the time?"
The two of them had dinner at the city's state-owned restaurant and then went straight to the department store next door.
Jiang Qingyue really didn't want to buy anything, so the two of them walked around slowly, and she rejected everything with various excuses.
Finally, Zhou Zhengting stood at a counter selling women's clothing and pointed at a red woolen coat and said, "Take this one!"
When he was in Tongshan County before, he had wanted to give her a piece of clothing like this.
It was just a matter of a moment, and he missed it.
Although the time is not right now, he still wants to make up for the regret of that year.
Seeing that Zhou Zhengting and Jiang Qingyue both had extraordinary temperaments, the salesperson readily took out the red woolen coat.
"You two comrades are planning to use it for your wedding, right? To be honest, this red woolen coat is the last one left. It's in great demand. Young people can't do without it when they get married now."
Zhou Zhengting felt like someone had rubbed salt into his wounds, but he paid the money without saying a word.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, Jiang Qingyue quickly pulled him and said, "We've bought everything, let's go out."
After leaving the department store, Zhou Zhengting suggested going to the movies.
Jiang Qingyue looked at him suspiciously, "Aren't you in a hurry to go back? There won't be any boats going back soon."
"I'm not going back today. Tomorrow, Xie Xiangyang will drive over to pick me up, and we're going to do some work nearby."
"All right then."
Anyway, I have nothing to do now, so I might as well go to the movies to kill time.
This was the first time Jiang Qingyue watched such an old-fashioned movie.
I didn't have the chance when I was in the countryside before.
Later, I went to Beijing and had to take care of my two children and send them to school, so I had no time.
Zhou Zhengting chose an old movie called "Heroic Sons and Daughters".
Jiang Qingyue originally thought that this kind of movie would be boring, but unexpectedly she enjoyed it so much.
Even Zhou Zhengting, who was standing beside her, looked at her several times, but she didn't notice.
It was already late when the two came out of the cinema.
Zhou Zhengting suggested staying in a guesthouse near the train station first and then coming out after putting down their luggage.
Jiang Qingyue said she had no objection.
Anyway, it's the last day, so I'll try to follow his wishes.
When they arrived at the front desk of the guesthouse, Jiang Qingyue was about to remind him to book two rooms.
But before he could even open his mouth, Zhou Zhengting said to the front desk, "Comrade, we need two rooms!"
Jiang Qingyue thought to herself that it was a good thing that she didn't have time to say it out loud, otherwise it would have seemed a bit petty.
The comrade at the front desk took a look at Zhou Zhengting's ID and quickly opened two adjacent rooms for them.
The room was on the second floor. Before entering the door, Zhou Zhengting from next door suddenly turned his head and
"Take a rest first. I'll take you out for a Western meal to celebrate after dark. It's cold at night, so change into your new clothes when you go out."
After saying that, he closed his door.
Jiang Qingyue realized it belatedly and said "oh".
I always feel that Zhou Zhengting is weirder today than yesterday.
I guess it's because he's just become single again and is feeling the heat?
After she entered the house and put down her luggage, she simply washed her face and re-combed her messed-up braids.
Looking at the red coat spread out on the bed, Jiang Qingyue was still a little hesitant.
Why does this dress look so weird?
It was clearly their divorce day, but they were dressed like they were newlyweds.
But on second thought, being single again is not a bad thing.
I've already bought it, it would be a waste not to wear it.
In the evening, Zhou Zhengting took Jiang Qingyue to a local old-fashioned Western restaurant.
Most of the people inside were young men and women dating, and the air was filled with a sweet smell.
That’s all secondary.
When Jiang Qingyue opened the menu, she was shocked and whispered, "Zhou Zhengting, are you crazy?"
