Mr. Song handed Shen Manting’s phone to her, explaining, “The Shen family and the Xue family have called you more than 80 times, asking when you’re going to the Civil Affairs Bureau. ”
Shen Manting frowned. “He hasn’t left? He’s been waiting until now? ” She raised her wrist to check the time, and her heart skipped a beat. At that moment, Qi Yingfang called again.
“Mom, I—” Shen Manting was about to speak when Qi Yingfang interrupted her, “Ah Ting, Ah Kong has been waiting for you at the Civil Affairs Bureau. Even if you don’t want to go, you should have told him. Tell me, what have you been thinking all these years? If you really don’t want to marry him, you have to make it clear. What’s with the situation now? ”
“I didn’t say that! All right, Mom, I know. ” Shen Manting hung up the phone and massaged her temples helplessly. She changed her clothes and left the hospital. However, she was stopped by two figures at the exit.
The two of them bowed to her respectfully. “Ms. Shen, the young master asked us to pick you up here. ”
Shen Manting looked at the two tall and burly men in front of her and felt a wave of irritation. She knew them. They were Xue Chenkong’s personal bodyguards. Feeling entrapped and helpless, Shen Manting all the more felt like she had to do something! Just like in childhood, Xue Chenkong would do anything to get his hands on what he wanted without asking her opinion.
Half an hour later, Shen Manting arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, which was supposed to be closed. At that time, however, the lights were still on, and it looked particularly lonely in the endless night.
Shen Manting walked into the Civil Affairs Bureau with an uneasy heart. When her eyes fell on the tall and handsome man curled up in the corner, she stopped in her tracks. His slender arms were hugging his knees, and his head was drooped. Meanwhile, his eyes were empty and desperate.
“Chenkong? ” Shen Manting stood not far away and called out to him softly. The moment he heard her voice, the man’s unfocused eyes gradually trained on the scene before him, and a light flashed in his empty eyes. “Ah Ting, you’re here! ” He smiled, got up from the ground, and walked to her in a few strides.
Perhaps it was because he had not spoken for a long time, the man’s magnetic voice was a little hoarse. He did not seem angry at all, and his face was serious. He knew that she would definitely come.
Shen Manting looked at him with a hint of guilt in her eyes. She said in a low voice, “I’m sorry, I really had something to do. I was delayed. ”
“It’s okay. Are you tired? ” Xue Chenkong reached out and touched her slightly haggard face. His heart ached as he said, “Babe, you don’t have to work so hard. After we get married, can you stop going to work? I’ll take care of your living expenses. ”
Shen Manting frowned slightly when she heard that. The guilt she felt earlier had disappeared, and she changed the subject. “Didn’t you receive my message? ” she asked.
A look of disappointment flashed across Xue Chenkong’s face, but he quickly smiled. “I said I would wait for you, so I will wait for you. ” As if he was trying to please her, Xue Chenkong took her hand, placed it on his lips, and kissed it gently, ignoring the people around him.
No matter how calm Shen Manting was by nature, she was still a young girl in her heart. With so many people looking at her, she felt thoroughly embarrassed. She struggled for a moment, but the other party held her even tighter. “Let go of me! ”
“Ah Ting, do you find me disdainful? ” Xue Chenkong’s face was filled with grievance, but his eyes were extremely clear.
Shen Manting’s heart felt as if it had been struck by something. She couldn’t help but speak slowly, “There are so many people watching. I’ll feel embarrassed, do you understand? ”
“All right. ” Xue Chenkong looked at her hesitantly, but in the end, he let go of her hand and said in all seriousness, “Since you don’t want me to hold your hand, then I won’t. ”
The staff at the side were dumbfounded. The Xue family’s third young master had been so irascible earlier that he wanted to tear down the place, but in the blink of an eye, he had become so obedient!
The two of them collected the form, and Shen Manting quickly signed it. When she turned her head, she realized that the man beside her had been staring at her. His gaze was so intense that Shen Manting’s face couldn’t help but burn. “Why are you looking at me? ” she asked.
“I’m so happy.” Xue Chenkong was as straightforward and passionate as always.
Shen Manting pursed her lips. “Hurry up and fill it in. ”
Before she could finish his sentence, Xue Chenkong quickly wrote down his name on the form. His eager look was a little cute, and Shen Manting couldn’t help but smile as she looked at him.
Upon signing all the necessary documents, the two of them walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Shen Manting looked at the red booklet in her hand, her emotions complicated. From the moment she was born, their marriage had been destined. Since she was young, Xue Chenkong had told her again and again that she was his wife and that they would get married when they grew up. Now, it was as if she had completed a mission.
