Chapter 19

The next day, they went to the Bureau of Civil Affairs to receive their marriage certificate.

Because it was “the great ominous day”, there were only a few couples who went to sign their fates together. They did not have to queue and the whole process was quick and smooth. Not long after, they obtained the Red Book1.

Neither of them had any special feelings towards it.

For Jian Ci, there was no real sense of marriage and as for Zhou Bai, he was accustomed to it.

There was nothing out of the blue.

No car accidents, no robbery, no sudden onset of illnesses, nothing falling from the skies… It was a usual day. Jian Ci did not experience any life threatening events.

Alright then, the almanac may not be so reliable after all.

Subsequently, they headed to the hospital to visit Father Zhou.

Father Zhou admired the marriage certificate, satisfied. He was worried that it would be embarrassing to let his son marry a man, but after looking at the picture of them standing side by side, they looked compatible. Xiao Jian’s smile was gentle and bashful, and although his son was keeping a straight face, he appeared more relaxed and laid-back as compared to his previous two marriage pictures.

Mm, they look good together.

Father Zhou’s surgery went smoothly, and he could be discharged after a few more days of observation. His mental state also seemed to have gotten better. Now that the two young men were a lawfully married couple, he naturally paid more attention to them. “Xiao Bai, is your new house ready?” he asked.

Jian Ci’s heart did a flip, hm? A-are we going to move in together?
