Chapter 515: Chapter 513 Lu Xia Getting the Certificate 19_1

The staff smiled and set the documents down in front of both of them, then handed over a pen.

Xia Ningxing held the pen without signing immediately, instead looking over at Lu Tingli.

Just then, Lu Tingli looked up at her as well.

It must be said, they had quite an understanding between them.

After they exchanged a smile, they both lowered their heads and began to sign.

While signing, Xia Ningxing’s palms were all sweaty, constantly swallowing her saliva.

It took her a long time to write out her short name.

By the time she finished, Lu Tingli had been done for quite a while.

"I’m slow, I’ve kept you waiting," Xia Ningxing said, feeling embarrassed as she touched her nose.

"Not at all," Lu Tingli replied, accommodating and smiling warmly at her. He reached for the document in front of her and handed it in.

Once they were reviewed and approved, two red marriage booklets were freshly issued.

"Congratulations! I wish Mr. Lu and Miss Xia a hundred years of happiness and an early birth of a precious child," the staff offered their heartfelt blessings.

Especially when looking at Xia Ningxing, their expression was filled with excitement.

Baby Xing is getting married!

And she was the one who processed it for them!

If it weren’t for her strict professional conduct, she would’ve likely announced it to the world on a forum by now.

Xia Ningxing lowered her eyes to the red booklet in her hands.

Her slender and delicate fingers touched it, feeling somewhat unreal.

Not until they had walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau did Xia Ningxing still find it hard to believe, "Lu, are we really married now?"

She couldn’t help but ask him again.

Oh my, that was so fast!

Lu Tingli stopped in his tracks and raised an eyebrow at her, "Otherwise?"

"You don’t think it’s just a sketch, my wife?" he teased deliberately.

Xia Ningxing laughed at this, unable to resist bursting into a giggle.

"Lu, it’s still early; let’s take a stroll before we head back," Xia Ningxing suggested, pointing to the commercial street next door.

Oh, she smelled the fragrance of milk tea.

She wanted to drink it!

Wanted to drink it!

"You want milk tea?" Lu Tingli appeared to be a mind-reader as he guessed her innermost desire.

Xia Ningxing grinned, "You really can’t hide anything from Lu."

Lu Tingli bent down, his well-defined fingers gently pinching her cheek, "Although milk tea is junk food, considering today is our great day of getting our marriage certificate, your husband will allow you to indulge just this once."

Xia Ningxing was both amused and exasperated, pinching him back, "Lu, can’t you say something nice? You’ve squashed my appetite!"

He had to call it junk, turning a good milk tea into an image of a trash bin swarming with flies in her head!

"I won’t mention it anymore; let’s go get you that milk tea right now," Lu Tingli said, taking her to buy milk tea.

After getting the warm and sweet milk tea, Xia Ningxing couldn’t express how satisfied she was.

Sometime unnoticed, small snowflakes began to drift down from the sky.

One after another, pure white.

"It’s snowing; shall we go back?" Lu Tingli offered, brushing away the stark white snow from the girl’s hair.

Xia Ningxing, like a child, shook her head, "Why go back when it’s perfect weather to play outside?"

How romantic to walk in the snow with the person you love!

Lu Tingli wanted to say "it’s not suitable," but seeing her excited face, he couldn’t bring himself to say it and ruin her mood.

There was some event ahead, bustling with people.

Xia Ningxing and Lu Tingli had no interest in mingling, so they planned to just walk by.

But who would have thought...

A rattan ball, as luck would have it, came flying towards Xia Ningxing.

Because Xia Ningxing had practiced martial arts, she had an instinctual reaction, and subconsciously, she raised her hand to catch the ball.

Afterward, she looked around with a baffled expression, "Where did this ball come from?"

Moreover, this thing looked quite similar to an embroidered ball, oh no, she wouldn’t have to marry someone because she caught it, would she?

Holy moly, she was already a married woman!

And even if she weren’t a married woman, she couldn’t possibly marry some random stranger!

While Xia Ningxing was musing over various possibilities, she heard a voice from the microphone, "Congratulations to the lady in blue for catching the ball and winning a day trip to the hot springs!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Ningxing breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, it wasn’t an embroidered ball.

But...

"A day trip to the hot springs?" Xia Ningxing looked at the host of the commercial event nearby in astonishment.

"Yes!" The host nodded enthusiastically at her and even came down from the stage to hand her four tickets, "You can invite your friends to join you!"

Xia Ningxing took the tickets with a stunned look, her luck was just too good, simply walking down the street had landed her such a deal.

And this wasn’t just any ordinary place, it was a five-star hot spring!

It was a very famous spot in Capital City.

It felt like a wedding gift specially bestowed upon her by the heavens.

The surrounding crowd looked at her with eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.

"This young lady is so lucky!"

"Indeed!"

"And she wasn’t even trying to catch it deliberately—it flew straight at her!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, that’s some kind of luck!"

"But, doesn’t that girl look a lot like Baby Xing?"

"Now that you mention it, there is a resemblance!"

"But I haven’t heard about her being in a relationship, maybe you’re mistaken!"

Many in the crowd chattered away.

Xia Ningxing’s body tensed up noticeably.

This is bad, she was going to be mobbed, wasn’t she?

She’d wrapped up so tightly, how could they still recognize her!

Why was it so difficult just to take a stroll!

Fortunately, the host came to her rescue.

"Ladies and gentlemen, friends and family, there’s more to come. Pay attention, I’m about to throw out some gifts..."

Hearing that there were more freebies up for grabs, and also unsure if she really was Baby Xing, everyone quickly turned back to wait for the gift scramble.

"Lu, let’s go, let’s get out of here!" Seeing this, Xia Ningxing finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly reached out to pull Lu Tingli away.

It wasn’t until they were seated in the car that she patted her little heart.

"That was terrifying."

If she had truly been surrounded, the exposure of their relationship would have been a minor issue. Autographs and photos would be the least of her worries, but what she truly feared were possible stampedes or personal attacks.

She resolved to avoid going out on the streets as much as possible in the future, for the safety of others as well as her own.

Xia Ningxing warned herself.

"It’s alright now, and even if there were something, I would protect you," Lu Tingli said gently as he buckled her seatbelt.

Xia Ningxing’s eyes were slightly moist as she bit her lip and said to him, "Lu, you’re so kind. In a few days, I’ll announce our relationship."

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to admit it, but now was not the right time to announce it.

She was still a university student. Getting married before completing her studies wouldn’t look good.

However, she had already applied to graduate early from the university, and she estimated that the approval would come through in a few days. Then, Lu Fan would arrange to expose her relationship and take the opportunity to promote the new drama.

She couldn’t mess up the sequence of events.
