Chapter 35
The next morning, when Luo Hanshang woke up, he found that Ning Jiang was not there.
However, there was a piece of paper on his bedside table.
He picked up the note. It was written in beautiful handwriting: I have a job in the company. I'll be working overtime. Let's meet at the Civil Affairs Bureau's entrance in the morning.
Luo Hanshang looked at the empty seat beside him and raised his eyebrows.
In the past, his sleep had been shallow, and if there was even the slightest movement in the room, he would wake up.
However, since he started to carry Ning Jiang to sleep, his sleep seemed to have improved a lot.
This woman was a magical existence to him.
In the morning, Ning Jiang would occasionally look at the clock on the wall.
At nine o'clock, Luo Hanshang called her.
She looked at her phone and hesitated for a moment. Then, she hung up and replied with a few words, "Wait a moment, I haven't finished my work. I'll be done very soon."
When he called again at nine-thirty, she picked up the phone. "Where are you?"
"Underground parking."
"Got it, got it. I'll be right there."
After hanging up, she asked the leader for a leave of absence and went to the bathroom to slowly put on her makeup.
It was already 9: 45 when he came downstairs.
Within fifteen minutes, they would not be able to get to the People's Republic of China Civil Affairs Department.
She got into his car, and his face darkened.
On the other hand, Ning Jiang smiled apologetically at him as if nothing had happened, "Sorry, I just remembered that I didn't put on any makeup when I came out. Although it was a fake marriage, I needed to take a photo after all, so I went to make up."
Luo Hanshang started the car and left. The car drove out of the basement and he said coldly, "I think you did it on purpose."
"Intentionally?" She pretended not to understand.
"What did my old lady say to you?"
Ning Jiang chuckled and said, "You're referring to what Grandmother said about obtaining a marriage certificate before ten o'clock? I think it's a bit of a superstition that you can live together for the rest of your life even without a marriage certificate. "
"Then why must you avoid this time?"
"I didn't try to avoid it. Cory was really busy just now."
Luo Hanshang snorted.
Ning Jiang was secretly delighted in her heart, but she still i
ocently said, "You're angry."
His face was cold, and he did not speak.
Ning Jiang quickly explained, "Although Grandmother doesn't know, we do know that our marriage is fake. Why do you need to calculate the time? Right? "
Luo Hanshang's eyes turned cold. Therefore, she purposely arrived late.
"This is your attitude. The person who asked me to marry is you. Have you ever thought that if you do as the old man says, you will make the old man happy? "
When he said that, she was really feeling guilty, but … She was afraid as well. What if the person her grandma was looking for was really accurate?
She lowered her eyes. "I'm sorry, I didn't consider Grandmother's feelings. I'm so focused on my work, why don't you tell Grandma that we got our certificate before ten, so she won't be upset about me? "
Luo Hanshang did not calm down.
This woman couldn't wait to marry him, yet she wasn't willing to maintain a long marriage with him, right?
Good, very good.
He was determined to let all her hopes go to waste. Since it was the same for him no matter who he married, he would spend the rest of his life with her.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Luo Hanshang's expression was still cold. Ning Jiang said, "Don't be angry, or we won't get a pass today. Have Grandma find someone else to keep an eye on us for a while or you can calm down and come out after receiving the certificate. I'll treat you to lunch at noon, okay?"
Luo Hanshang glanced at her, then opened the car door and got out.
The two of them went in and took pictures. When they came out, it was already 10: 20.
Ning Jiang said, "Zhuo Yijun, what do you want to eat for lunch today? I'll treat you."
He rolled his eyes at her and opened the door to the car.
She hurriedly got into the car and said while fastening her seat belt, "Let's go eat Thai food. I know there's a pretty good restaurant, I …"
Before she could finish, Luo Hanshang's phone rang.
He took out his cell phone, glanced at it, and picked it up. "Grandmother."
When she heard him call her grandma, she got a little nervous.
She couldn't hear what her grandmother was saying, only that he was saying, "Get your marriage certificate, we're out, 10: 20, right? Is that so? Heh, alright, I understand. "
He hung up the phone and put it aside.
Ning Jiang said worriedly, "Are you telling Grandma that we have a marriage certificate at 10: 20? Is Grandmother very disappointed? "
Luo Hanshang didn't say anything. He started the car and left the Civil Administration Bureau, arriving at a seemingly high-class western restaurant.
Ning Jiang looked outside and said with a guilty conscience, "This place should be quite expensive, right?"
"What? You want to go back on your word?"
She quickly waved her hand, "If you don't go back on your word, you won't go back on your word. Even if you spend all my money today, I'll still accept my fate."
When Luo Hanshang got off the car, Ning Jiang unbuckled her seat belt and followed him.
Before entering the dining room, he stopped and looked at her. "Oh yes, Grandma just told me that she was afraid we'd be late for work that day. Therefore, she purposely said the right time earlier than an hour. The auspicious hour is before eleven. "
She was stu
ed. What?
This... This... Grandma was too black-hearted.
