Chapter 10 Got the Certificate
The meeting between the parents of both parties on the second day was also carried out smoothly in the five-star hotel. Mrs. Lu and Zhou's parents had already started discussing the betrothal gifts and dowries, as well as the auspicious dates and locations for holding the weddings.
Zhou Qingti looked at Lu Yanzhi, who frowned slightly, obviously not expecting marriage to be so troublesome.
As the second party, Zhou Qingti's job was to step up when the first party needed her, so she said, "Mom and Dad, we're not planning a wedding. Yanzhi and I both want to keep a low profile and live our own lives."
This was said in a sensible and sweet way, but the parents disagreed. Zhou Qingti had no choice but to use the delay tactic: "Yanzhi and I will get the certificate first, and we can talk about the wedding later."
Lu Yanzhi nodded: "Holding a wedding is a big event. It will attract attention from all walks of life. I don't want Qingti to be affected by any negative influences from the outside world."
Now that things have come to this, we have to put the wedding aside for now.
After lunch, Zhou Qingti tried to sneak away with the excuse of going to the store, but his mother still dragged him back home on the pretext of getting his household registration book.
Mr. Zhou was drunk, so it was the Lu family's driver who drove them back.
Although Mother Zhou was smiling and speaking kindly all the time, she still couldn't be happy in her heart. She endured it all the way, and finally when she closed the door, she started to talk about Zhou Qingti.
"I really don't know why you are in such a hurry to get married!" Lu Yanzhi has excellent conditions, but as a parent, we don't just look at money, we care more about our daughter's happiness.
Mother Zhou was worried that the gap between the two families was too big and that Zhou Qingti would be looked down upon if she married into the family.
Zhou Qingti pulled her mother to comfort her: "Yanzhi treats me very well. He also said that after we get married, we don't have to live with our parents."
Her daughter was stubborn and strong-willed. When she insisted on starting her own business, she knew that once her daughter made a decision, no one could change it.
Fortunately, her choice was right. Now she earns a lot of money, but it is too hard.
The old couple only had this one daughter, so they had no choice but to spoil her. Mother Zhou went back to her room and found the household registration book.
Father Zhou also pulled his daughter aside to talk: "If you are wronged in the future, you must tell your family. Your parents will seek justice for you even if it costs them their lives."
Zhou Qingti was touched in his heart, but he said, "Dad, why do you always think about these bad things? Can't I just be so happy after marrying him?"
I can't say anything else, but after getting the marriage certificate, she will be rich as hell, and Lu Yanzhi will give her 30 million.
That was money she would never be able to earn in her entire life.
Zhou Qingti happily took the household registration booklet, but Mother Zhou was still worried: "Are you really not planning to hold a wedding?"
Zhou Qingti carefully analyzed the pros and cons with his parents: "If we hold a wedding, our family will become semi-public figures. Then, no matter what we do, we will be unable to get rid of the name of the Lu family. If we make a mistake, there will be many eyes watching us, and it will cause a lot of trouble."
What Zhou Qingti said makes sense. Luyi Group is a well-known company in China and has received considerable attention.
Zhou's parents also understood, but they felt a little regretful that their daughter could not have a grand wedding. They also gave out a lot of gifts and had no way to take them back.
Zhou Qingti’s love of money is not without some genetic genes.
Zhou Qingti took a photo of the household registration booklet and showed it to Lu Yanzhi, feeling somewhat proud: [It’s done.]
Reporting progress to Party A at any time is a basic quality of Party B.
Lu Yanzhi just replied with a "good".
Zhou Qingti stared at the screen of her mobile phone and thought: See, this is the truth about her relationship with Lu Yanzhi, strangers who can't even say a few words to each other.
…
The Civil Affairs Bureau was filled with loving couples. Zhou Qingti was sitting alone on a bench waiting in line. Lu Yanzhi had not arrived yet because he was too busy on Monday.
Almost every girl in the hall was wearing a white dress and holding a bouquet of flowers. Some even wore veils and hired photographers to follow them.
Zhou Qingti was even mistaken by a newlywed couple as a photographer waiting for work and came up to ask for his price.
Finally, when there were only two numbers left before Zhou Qingti's turn, Lu Yanzhi came and said, "Sorry, the company is a bit busy."
It's okay, you're busy as it should be, after all, you still have to earn 50 million for me. Zhou Qingti only dared to say this in his heart.
In fact, Zhou Qingti smiled and said, "It's okay, you came just in time. It will be our turn soon. Did you bring your household registration book?"
So Zhou Qingti and Lu Yanzhi got their marriage certificate as if they were getting a divorce. The staff even thought they had come to the wrong place.
All the newlyweds present were very happy, except for these two who did not communicate at all and only smiled when taking photos.
The staff even asked the two twice whether they wanted to get married voluntarily.
Their marriage was based on their respective needs. Zhou Qingti did it for money, while Lu Yanzhi used money to solve some troubles.
Zhou Qingti came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau holding the red book. Lu Yanzhi looked at his phone and said, "Let me add you to our family group. Grandma has been asking about you."
"good."
His family group is not called a loving family, the group name is just two simple words: Lu Family.
After Zhou Qingti joined the group, there were sixteen people.
Lu Yanzhi posted the photo of his marriage certificate in the group and briefly introduced Zhou Qingti with three words, "My wife."
Zhou Qingti still couldn't get used to that address, but he still politely greeted her. The first person to speak was his second uncle's daughter: "Sister-in-law is so beautiful."
The marriage certificate showed that they were a perfect match. Old Mrs. Lu was very satisfied and arranged a family dinner together on Friday night to welcome Zhou Qingti to join them.
The old lady sent red envelopes in the group, wishing Lu Yanzhi and Zhou Qingti a happy marriage, and then the elders in the group also started sending red envelopes.
Amidst the cheerful atmosphere in the group, Zhou Qingti didn't know if he could get any, so he didn't order any.
When Mrs. Lu saw that Zhou Qingti had not received the red envelope yet, she came to chat with her privately and asked her and Lu Yanzhi to receive it quickly, which was a good omen.
Lu Yanzhi noticed Zhou Qingti's hesitation and said, "Take it. Just take what they give you in the future."
Zhou Qingti no longer had any psychological burden and clicked on each red envelope one by one, with a smile unconsciously appearing on his face.
What a money-grubber.
Lu Yanzhi sent Zhou Qingti back to the dessert shop and took away two desserts.
The shop assistants were very surprised that the boss had disappeared for two days and brought back a peerless handsome man.
You have to know that Zhou Qingti works almost all year round, and even when she had a boyfriend before, he would only take time out to have a meal with her.
Everyone gathered around her and gossiped, "Boss, where have you been these past two days? Who is that handsome guy?"
Zhou Qingti didn't know how to answer, so he joked, "I've been working as an actor these past few days. That's a friend I just met."
Not wanting to be bothered, she had to send everyone to work. She touched the little red book in her bag and wondered: Is she getting married now?
Fortunately, they didn't need to live together yet, otherwise Zhou Qingti would have been really uncomfortable. A text message alert rang out on his phone, indicating that 30 million RMB had been deposited into his bank account.
Zhou Qingti carefully counted 0 three times and confirmed the position of the decimal point five times.
She was so happy that she wanted to scream, and she immediately called Lin Miao: "Miao, go to the International Trade Center right now, I'll give you a bag."
Lin Miao screamed in the office, this is the benefit of having a best friend who becomes rich suddenly!
