Chapter 512 - 512 513 Marriage (5)_1
?Chapter 512: Chapter 513: Marriage (5)_1 Chapter 512: Chapter 513: Marriage (5)_1 They were supposed to get their marriage certificate today.
Jing Haohao stirring restlessly in the covers, seemingly reluctant.
Liang Chen reached out, pulling at the blanket. His incessant movements severely disturbed Jing Haohao’s sleep, leading to her getting up in a bad mood. She glared at Liang Chen, then took her pillow and fiercely whacked him with it before lying down again to continue sleeping.
That pillow, hitting Liang Chen, seemed to have struck his heart, filling him with joy. He got up, went to the wardrobe and, after a long time picking out clothes, eventually decided on a red shirt to add a touch of festivity to their certificate collection day.
To add to the festive feel, Liang Chen also deliberately picked out a red skirt for Jing Haohao.
At eight o’clock, Jing Haohao finally started to get out of bed. Standing groggily in the bathroom, she fumbled around on the washstand for a long time but couldn’t find the toothpaste.
Liang Chen quickly came over, got a toothbrush for Jing Haohao, applied the toothpaste, and handed it to her, then leaned against the door, watching Jing Haohao brush her teeth.
Liang Chen ate breakfast in an unusually rushed manner, constantly urging Jing Haohao. They set off for the Civil Affairs Bureau before eight thirty.
When they arrived at the Jiangshan City Civil Affairs Bureau, it was just a quarter past nine, fifteen minutes before the bureau’s staff began work.
Liang Chen parked the car, walked around to Jing Haohao’s side, opened the door for her, and waited for her to get out. He locked the car and then, holding Jing Haohao by the waist, they went to wait by the bureau’s entrance.
At nine-thirty, the Civil Affairs Bureau started work on time.
Liang Chen and Jing Haohao went in and had their photos taken first.
Their photographer, a long-serving member of the Civil Affairs Bureau, had already witnessed countless couples from JiangshanCity get married. When focusing the lens, the old photographer even reminded the two of them to stand closer together.
With a “click”, as if in a dream, a flash of light went past, Jing Haohao’s mind was a little blank for a moment. Before she could react, the old photographer had already handed them a few photos.
The handsome man and beautiful woman in the photos seemed like a dreamy illusion, indescribably beautiful.
Liang Chen stared at the photo, lost in thought for a long time, before holding Jing Haohao’s hand and walking towards the registration desk.
Only then did Jing Haohao notice that Liang Chen’s palm was damp.
He was sweating?
Jing Haohao lifted her gaze to him and noticed that his face was taut, his lips tightly compressed. It seemed like he was doing his best to mask his inner nervousness. Yet, his eyes, they were remarkably shiny.
As they sat at the registration desk, the staff passed them a form each, telling them to fill in their information.
Liang Chen opened his first and quickly picked up a pen to start filling in.
Jing Haohao, who had been calm all along, suddenly felt a wave of nervousness. She took a deep breath to calm herself down before lowering her head to write.
One had powerful and bold handwriting; the other’s was elegant and neat.
After finishing, Liang Chen first checked both their information, made sure everything was correct, and then signed the forms.
The staff member took their forms and started typing furiously on the computer for a while. She then placed two red booklets on the printer, its rhythmic clattering sound filling the air.
The rhythm of the printer sounded like a melody, each beat hitting softly against Liang Chen’s heart.
PS: Hey, did they successfully get their certificate? They haven’t even stamped it yet?
