"Old village chief, stop keeping me in suspense!" Shen Sisi urged.
Gu Chengfeng, who was beside him, also put down his chopsticks, his cold and imposing aura pressing down on him.
The old village chief trembled at Gu Chengfeng's deep, unfathomable gaze and dared not show off any longer. He blurted out, "It was my fault for setting you up like this."
He kept rambling on and on, but finally told the truth.
When Feng Yanzhou came to him to ask for a certificate on how to resolve Niu Niu's problem.
The old village chief racked his brains for several days, and finally came up with a terrible idea—he gave Niu Niu a fake father!
"Li Cheng is a man with a tragic fate. He lost both his parents and had no relatives. He also suffered such a fatal accident, so... so I took it upon myself to write him as Niu Niu's biological father!"
No sooner had the old village chief finished speaking than he felt several ice blades pierce his face.
"What?" Shen Sisi was both amused and exasperated; this was truly absurd.
The old village chief felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he became very cautious in his speech, as if even breathing was a sin.
“Shen Zhiqing, don’t be angry. I had no other choice at the time, so I wrote that you and Li Cheng were dating, and that you had already held a wedding and were about to get your marriage certificate when Li Cheng suddenly died in an accident.”
At first glance, this logic seems perfectly logical, almost flawless.
Only Chen Sisi knew how angry she was!
They actually tried to pair her up with a dead man.
Even if she agrees, will Li Cheng agree?
"Old village chief, we can think of a solution, but what you're doing is really unfair," Shen Sisi couldn't help but scold.
The old village chief, like a child who had done something wrong, nervously placed his hands on his knees: "I'm sorry, I had no other choice."
Chen Sisi was furious, but also felt quite creeped out.
Gu Chengfeng patted her shoulder, signaling her to calm down.
It was clear that Gu Chengfeng was also very angry, but what could he do now that things had come to this?
To cover up one lie, one tells more lies.
“I will report this matter truthfully to the military region,” Gu Chengfeng said coldly.
"Don't be like that, I'm just doing this for your own good. I hope you can pass the political review and get your certificates quickly." The old village chief was also very distressed.
No matter how much he pleaded, Gu Chengfeng was determined to report it to the military region.
He absolutely could not tolerate his Sisi having any connection with other men, not even dead ones!
The meal ended unhappily, and Chen Sisi barely touched her chopsticks.
Seeing that she was starving, Gu Chengfeng carried Niu Niu in one arm and took Chen Sisi's hand in the other, saying, "Come on, let's go back to the county town and have some good food."
Chen Sisi paused for a second in surprise, then looked at the naive Gu Chengfeng with amusement: "It's already dark, the tractors are all in the warehouse, how are we going to get into the city? By foot?"
She wasn't joking; she was seriously considering solutions.
Walking is definitely not an option, especially since the weather is so cold now; you could freeze to death in the mountains.
Gu Chengfeng smiled mysteriously and said, "You don't need to worry about that. Just answer me, do you want to or not?"
Shen Sisi was stunned by his domineering attitude, and her heart began to pound. Whether it was true or not, she figured it was right to play along and have some fun with him.
So she smiled and uttered a single word: "Yes!"
Gu Chengfeng led her toward the dilapidated house: "Let's go, let's get our things first, the car will be here soon."
"You're just lying to me."
"I'd be a dog if I lied..."
Lost in thought, I gazed at the pitch-black surroundings. The rural night was so quiet, as if only the twinkling stars overhead filled the world.
But soon, the twinkling starlight turned into two large orange headlights!
A jeep pulled up in front of her small, dilapidated yard.
Feng Yanzhou leaned against the car window with one hand and saw the happy family from afar.
The couple is handsome and beautiful, and their child is also adorable and cute.
He couldn't wait to see their child born.
Sigh, when will he be able to have such a happy family, so he can show off in front of Gu Chengfeng?
"Old Gu, sister-in-law!" Feng Yanzhou leaned out of the car window and waved at them.
Gu Chengfeng glanced at Feng Yanzhou, who was travel-worn and rubbing his shoulders. This kid's arrival was really strange.
"It's you, Brother Feng! When did you arrive?" Shen Sisi asked warmly and familiarly.
Feng Yanzhou jumped out of the car with a smile: "I just arrived, only two minutes earlier than you."
"You haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Feng Yanzhou glanced at Gu Chengfeng's face and, seeing that he seemed quite unhappy, stopped his teasing: "I ate something on the way, I'm not hungry yet..."
As soon as Gu Chengfeng saw Feng Yanzhou, he thought of the old village chief's words.
He should have known about the old village chief's dirty trick all along—"marrying" Sisi to a man named Li Cheng—but he didn't tell him the truth. He was really asking for trouble!
Feng Yanzhou felt tortured by Gu Chengfeng's icy gaze, and his whole body felt uneasy. What had he done to offend Gu Chengfeng?
While they were talking, Gu Chengfeng had already loaded all the things that had been packed in the house into the jeep.
He then opened the car door and invited Chen Sisi to get in.
"It's cold outside, don't let yourself and the kids get cold."
Chen Sixin turned to look at him with delight and suddenly felt that he seemed to have changed, becoming more delicate and warm.
Once in the car, it was Chen Sisi who first broke the ice.
"Brother Feng, did you already know that the old village chief had arranged for me to find a 'husband'?" Shen Sisi asked.
The man in front of her suddenly trembled, and he visibly panicked for a moment.
"You...you all know?" Feng Yanzhou asked tentatively, his smile more like a grimace.
He was filled with resentment and anger: "What you're doing is fraud...you'll be punished!"
Feng Yanzhou sighed softly, "Compared to your happiness, I don't care about being punished... Just sacrifice myself!"
He got out of breath when you called him fat!
Chen Sisi said irritably, "Alright, we're not blaming you, but we still need to clarify this matter with the military camp..."
She knew that the first thing Gu Chengfeng would do after returning was to submit a report, and they would accept whatever punishment the organization decided to impose!
Shen Sisi had prepared for the worst. No matter how they were punished, as long as they didn't get divorced, she could accept it!
The journey back was much smoother this time.
Chen Sisi held Niu Niu in her arms and fell asleep in Gu Chengfeng's embrace.
When they woke up, it was already broad daylight, and they had arrived in Lin County.
Various shouts came through the window, and before Chen Sisi even opened her eyes, she could smell the aroma.
She looked up and saw a street full of delicious food and drinks.
This is... a morning market?
She stretched her arms and the little one in her arms nuzzled against her like a puppy.
With a smile in her eyes, she turned her head to look to her side, only to find that Gu Chengfeng was gone.
