Sheng Yi thought for a moment, then withdrew the second half of his sentence.
Zhu Qinghao raised her head in confusion.
"Hmm? Why didn't you finish?"
Sheng Yi smiled and shook his head.
"I originally wanted to ask when we should get our marriage certificate, but then I thought that as long as she agreed to marry me, it's never too late."
"The security I want has never been on that piece of paper, but in your heart. But that piece of paper might be a heavy burden for you, so I don't want to pressure you."
Zhu Qing chuckled, then looked up and asked him earnestly:
"How do you know if the guarantee I want is on that piece of paper? What if it is?"
Sheng Yi felt that he would never betray Zhu Qinghao in his life, so he didn't think there was any difference between having a marriage certificate and not having one. Besides, he always felt that Zhu Qinghao should be free.
But if she wanted it, he would never refuse to give it to her.
"That's exactly what I wanted to say. If you really want that piece of paper, then we'll go get it tomorrow. I'll give you anything you want."
"Tomorrow?! Is it that casual? If I remember correctly, you need to file a marriage certificate to get married, right?"
Upon hearing that they could get their marriage certificate the next day, Zhu Qinghao was instantly flustered, and a flood of questions popped into her mind.
Sheng Yi, on the other hand, seemed to enjoy her surprise at being admired, and smiled mysteriously from the side.
"Well, that's a secret."
A secret? People who are about to get married, how could they possibly have secrets?
Zhu Qinghao absolutely forbids it.
Actually, she was genuinely curious and wanted to know.
She had originally planned to pester Sheng Yi until he confessed, but just before taking action, she suddenly changed her approach and attacked from a different angle.
Sheng Yi had prepared himself for her to pester him relentlessly, and had even come up with a plan to deal with it.
Turning around, she saw Zhu Qinghao covering her face with her hands, looking like she was about to cry, and she looked extremely sad.
His mind went blank for a moment, he forgot everything, and rushed toward her.
He originally intended to pounce on her directly, but just before he was about to make contact, he suddenly turned and half-squatted in front of her.
"Okay, okay, what's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden? Is there something I did wrong? Tell me, and I'll change it. Please don't cry, okay?"
Zhu Qinghao ignored him and continued her "performance".
Sheng Yi was extremely anxious. He tried every trick in the book to coax her, and even tried to guess every possible reason that might upset Zhu Qing, but he couldn't find the right one.
Despite it being the dead of winter, he was sweating profusely with anxiety.
"Okay, okay, what's wrong with you? Just tell me, don't keep it bottled up, it won't solve anything, okay?"
Zhu Qinghao knew she couldn't continue acting; she didn't want to really worry people later.
So, with red eyes, she looked at Sheng Yi and pouted, saying:
“You’re going to have secrets from me now. You said before that you would never have any secrets from me.”
But now, I've only just decided to marry you, and you've already started having secrets from me. I'm heartbroken, isn't that enough?
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yi was stunned for a while before he reacted, then he smiled heartily as if relieved.
Although he didn't remember whether he had told Zhu Qinghao that he would never keep any secrets from her, he felt that he should indeed do so, so there was nothing to argue about.
But what truly pleased him was this so-called "secret".
Since Zhu Qinghao cares about this secret, it means that she cares about when he wanted to marry her and secretly filed for marriage. Of course, he was happy!
