Chapter 157 The Best Gift
Shi Chengyu lowered his head and held her hand tighter.
The car stopped slowly again. Shen Chutang let go of his hand and got out of the car. Shi Chengyu was stunned for a moment and looked up at her.
"Come down."
Shi Chengyu got out of the car after hearing that. The scenery outside was still unfamiliar. He asked softly, "Where is this?" His voice was filled with an undisguised sense of loss.
Shen Chutang smiled and pointed behind him, motioning him to turn around.
Shi Chengyu did as he was told, turned around, and after seeing the three words "Civil Affairs Bureau" opposite him, he froze in place, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
Shen Chutang walked up to him, threaded her fingers through his, and clasped theirs.
There was the sound of wind and the noise of passing cars in his ears. Shi Chengyu could clearly hear the sound of his own heartbeat. Then, Shen Chutang's words rang in his ears.
Shen Chutang raised their hands. The diamond ring on her left hand sparkled in the sun. She said, "Shi Chengyu, do you want to marry me?"
Shi Chengyu came back to his senses from the huge surprise. When their eyes met, tears welled up in his eyes and he said firmly, "Yes."
The answer was expected, but it still made Shen Chutang feel a joy she had never felt before. She held his hand and walked forward.
Shi Chengyu's hands were shaking when he was filling in the documents, his eyes were red when he took the photos, and finally when he held the two red marriage certificates in his hands, he felt something was very unreal, like he was dreaming.
Shen Chutang stood on tiptoe and pinched his face, "Come back to your senses."
Shi Chengyu put his arms around her waist and buried his head in her shoulders, "Tangtang, this is the best gift I have ever received."
The dream he had had for many years finally came true. He never thought that there would be such a happy thing in the world.
"Do you like it?" Shen Chutang asked.
"I like it." Shi Chengyu answered decisively.
"Shi Chengyu, a long time ago I asked my sister-in-law if she wanted to get married, and she told me that marriage is the beginning of their love." Shen Chutang stroked his neck with her hand, her voice sweet, "Love has already come to us. I want to tell you that I am very happy, and I want you to be happy too. Marriage will also be the beginning of our greater happiness."
She deliberately softened her voice, and the gentleness in her tone was like ripples on the water, slowly and in circles rippling into Shi Chengyu's heart.
There was a warm and wet feeling on his shoulders and neck. Shen Chutang wanted to laugh and rubbed his hair. "Okay, let's go home."
Shi Chengyu calmed down, raised his head, and solemnly took her hand, "Go home."
When they were in the car, Shi Chengyu finally remembered to ask her, "Tangtang, did your uncle and aunt know that you took the household registration book?"
Shen Chutang looked at him with a sad face, "I stole it, my parents don't know yet."
Although the marriage between the two was a done deal, Shi Chengyu couldn't help but be startled. His mind began to think of countermeasures quickly, "Tangtang, I'll tell uncle and auntie when we get home later."
"Just say that I let you do it, got it?"
Shen Chutang had a confused expression, and heard him say in a tough tone, "Be good and listen to me."
Back at Lanjiang Court, Shi Chengyu held her hand and took a deep breath at the door. His nervousness made him ignore the smile on Uncle Wen's face.
He pushed open the door and a bang exploded in his ears. He subconsciously held Shen Chutang in his arms. Streamers were flying all over the sky and falling down. Laughter rang out all around him.
Shi Chengyu's vision gradually became clearer, and he saw many people in the living room. He realized that Shen Chutang had given him another surprise, so he started to smile as well, and his arms around her tightened even more.
If he has the habit of keeping a diary, then on this day, he will write in his diary that this is the happiest and most memorable day of his life.
Later, Shi Chengyu followed only one person's Weibo and updated a post for the first time, on Shen Chutang's birthday.
The moonlight is beautiful, and today I have become Miss Shen’s legal husband.
The accompanying picture shows two people's hands tightly clasped together, each wearing diamond rings, and a photo of their marriage certificate.
When Shen Chutang came out of the shower, she saw Shi Chengyu sitting on the sofa, staring at the marriage certificate in a daze, his fingers stroking it from time to time, and the corners of his mouth were raised without falling.
Shen Chutang walked over, took his arm and got into his arms, "Don't look at the certificate, look at me."
Shi Chengyu put her down reluctantly and held her in his arms to blow-dry her hair.
When his hair was half dry, Shen Chutang pulled his hand and asked him to stop. She sat on the edge of the bed, reached out to touch Shi Chengyu's face, and asked him to bend down.
The atmosphere gradually heated up, and Shen Chutang raised his head and kissed her.
Shi Chengyu hugged her and fell on the bed. The lingering kiss made his breathing gradually become heavy, and his hands kept stroking her waist.
"Tangtang... can we do it twice tonight..."
"Well... I'm tired."
Although she never put in much effort in this matter, she always felt endlessly tired the next day.
"This time on the bed... Tangtang just needs to lie down..."
It turns out that being anywhere is tiring.
Because Shen Chutang only limited the number of times but not the time, it was almost dawn when it ended. Shen Chutang cried and begged for mercy, and Shi Chengyu used the little remaining rationality to restrain himself.
This was the first time that Shi Chengyu left marks on her body. The red marks on her neck spread all the way down to the area covered by the collar of her pajamas. The early morning sunlight shone through the gauze curtains. Shi Chengyu applied ointment on her neck to try to cover up his crime.
I moved so gently that I didn't dare wake her up, but I couldn't control myself and the consequences were serious.
Shen Chutang slapped away the hand that was messing around her neck, then stretched out her arms and turned to Shi Chengyu for a hug. She didn't sleep well and hummed softly in dissatisfaction.
Shi Chengyu put down the ointment and held her in his arms, kissed the corner of her lips, and then patted her back to coax her to sleep.
Shen Chutang slept for another two hours before waking up. She pouted and looked at Shi Chengyu aggrievedly, "You lied."
"It's my fault." Shi Chengyu admitted it generously. Even if he admitted his mistake a thousand times, he couldn't change it.
Shen Chutang hummed twice, hugged his neck, and asked in a muffled voice, "Shi Chengyu, are you pregnant..."
Shi Chengyu froze, his body temperature dropped a little bit, his heart instantly tightened, and then he was overwhelmed by guilt. He patted Shen Chutang's back with a calming look, trying to make his voice sound calmer, "I'm sorry, I will be more careful next time."
"That's not what I meant." Shen Chutang raised his head suddenly, "I want to have a baby."
Shen Chutang was in a hurry to say it, and only realized after he finished speaking that it was embarrassing. His ears, which were already red, now turned redder as if they were about to bleed.
Shi Chengyu didn't dare to look into her eyes. He covered her head and held her tightly in his arms. "This kind of thing... can't be rushed."
