Chapter 437: 434
Lu Xiao parked the car, yanked the handbrake, and killed the engine. He took the keys and got out, without a word circled the front of the vehicle and opened the door behind which she sat.
“Don’t talk nonsense, you were the one who insisted on registering our marriage this morning. You must do what you’ve promised.”
As soon as these words came out—
Wen Xian: “…”
She was so choked up that she couldn’t say anything.
Lu Xiao also didn’t give her a chance to hesitate. To avoid complications and prevent any regrets, he bent down and cautiously lifted her out of the car.
He also carried a paper bag in his hand.
Both had worn white shirts when they left the house that day, but they had been taken off in the emergency room after an accident.
Now, he was holding hers.
Wen Xian clung tight to his neck as Lu Xiao carried her inside, her breathing somewhat erratic.
Just moments ago, she was quietly shedding tears in the hospital, thinking she and Lu Xiao might not end up registering their marriage. She didn’t want to hold him back.
The despair and grief almost drowned her, but in the blink of an eye, after waking up from a nap, she found herself being taken by him to the civic affairs bureau…!
Authoritatively, undisputedly, he was making her register their marriage.
Her emotions were a complicated mix: “…”
But deep down, her longing remained profound.
Since it wasn’t the early morning opening time and it was nearing the end of the workday, there weren’t many people registering their marriages at this time, and today was not a special day.
There was only one couple ahead of them.
An employee, who seemed to have been expecting them, approached with a gentle smile:
“Mr. Lu, Miss Wen, please come this way. First, go to this room to change your clothes. Just change your upper garment, and call me when you’re ready. I’ll take your photos.”
Lu Xiao nodded slightly in response to the employee, “Thank you.”
Then, he carried Wen Xian into a room designed for changing clothes, which also had several lockers.
Lu Xiao gently set her down on a chair, then took the paper bag and pulled out a white shirt.
Wen Xian watched the whole process, her eyes filled with complexity when she looked at him again.
She bit her lip slightly, “You’re really well-prepared.”
She was still wearing a hospital gown.
Lu Xiao just hummed nonchalantly without objection, “I didn’t want you to use the excuse that you couldn’t take a photo in a hospital gown.”
Wen Xian: “…”
She suddenly felt a bit awkward, faintly brushing her cheek—he was absolutely right.
It would indeed make her uncomfortable to wear a hospital gown during such a crucial moment.
Although it is said that those who survive great disasters live a charmed life, now that they were actually going to register, she wanted to look her best and appear with him on the marriage certificate.
After all, this was something that would last a lifetime…
Now, she needed to change clothes.
Just as Wen Xian was about to ask him to leave, she saw that he had no intention of leaving and his long hand directly reached for the neckline of her hospital gown.
“Look up.”
He commanded.
Wen Xian watched him, his expression serious and focused, as he meticulously began to unfasten her buttons, causing her face to heat up as she grasped his hand.
“I can do it myself, you can go out first…”
But as soon as these words left her mouth—
Lu Xiao’s brow furrowed slightly, he pursed his lips and finally said:
“Wen Xian, there’s nothing I haven’t seen.”
Saying so, he removed her hand.
