Chapter 8

“No way!”

He had been recruited into the army at the age of fourteen and had been away from home for twelve years. No one could break his iron will, not even by threatening his family!

This woman wanted him to wake up, she must have ulterior motives!

He had too many secrets in his head, once they were leaked, the consequences would be immeasurable…

Thinking about this, Xie Zhenting almost had a brain hemorrhage, but…

After Gu Nanzhi checked his wounds and wiped his body, she redressed him. After a moment’s thought, she secretly injected him with a nutrient solution from her space laboratory, then left with the basin of water.

Listening to her footsteps as she left, Xie Zhenting: “???”

She left just like that?

She stripped him naked, looked him over, gave him an injection, and then she left?

Didn’t she want to rummage around in his room, or did she already do that when he was unconscious? His comrades shouldn’t have left any important information in his house, right?

Lost in his thoughts, Xie Zhenting felt a warm current flowing through his body. His stiff body, which had been lying down for so long, felt a rare sense of comfort, and his consciousness began to fade…

As his consciousness disappeared, Xie Zhenting had only one thought: what did that woman inject him with? What was her purpose?

Gu Nanzhi, who was suspected of having impure motives, had no idea that she had been labeled by Xie Zhenting. She was being treated as a guest by the Xie family…

Little Zhaodi personally brought her a basin of water to wash her face. As she watched her wash up, she tilted her head and asked, “Auntie, can you really wake up Uncle? Uncle has been sleeping for a long time!”

Although Gu Nanzhi was shocked by the term “Auntie,” she still gave a positive answer to the timid and cute Zhaodi.

Knowing that she could really wake up her uncle, Zhaodi happily spun around, and the Xie family was also very happy.

After a simple breakfast of rice porridge, mixed noodles, and pickles, Gu Nanzhi politely refused the egg that Xie’s mother peeled for her, splitting the egg in half and giving it to Zhaodi and Tuanzi. The family quickly finished their breakfast.

After breakfast, the family packed their things, leaving Xie Ruyun and the two children at home, and carried Xie Zhenting onto a flatbed cart.

As they went out, they ran into Xu Xiangling and others who were carrying hoes from the backyard.

“Uncle and Auntie, are you taking Brother Xie to the town for another check-up?”

After greeting them, Xu Xiangling glanced at the person on the flatbed cart and asked with a smile.

“No, we’re taking him and Nanzhi to the town to get their marriage certificate. They’re getting married, and we’ll invite you to the wedding banquet tomorrow!”

Xie’s mother was in high spirits, her smile revealing her teeth.

After some pleasantries, Gu Nanzhi and the others pulled the cart out, and Xu Xiangling and the others went towards the fields. But as soon as they parted ways, they heard the voices of the people behind them.

“Isn’t that Gu Nanzhi from Gujia Village? Wang Bingcheng’s ex-girlfriend?”

“Don’t talk nonsense! Brother Wang said he never liked Gu Nanzhi, it was all Gu Nanzhi who was clinging to him…”

“Zhao Jie, you should say less! Everyone knows you have a crush on Wang Bingcheng. Even if you have a crush on him, it’s destined to be fruitless. He’s already rolled around in the cornfield with Gu Jinxiu, he has to marry her even if he doesn’t want to!”

“You!”

“…”

The voices of the female educated youths grew fainter as they walked further away, and finally Gu Nanzhi heard Xu Xiangling’s voice, tinged with regret.

“It’s a pity for Gu Nanzhi, she’s such a beautiful girl, but she’s going to marry a living dead man!”

Gu Nanzhi: “!!!”

She is a cannon fodder control group, there is no need for the original book heroine to pity her!

I just hope that the original book heroine will not regret it and rush to throw herself on the living dead man in her mouth!

Just as she was complaining in her heart, Gu Nanzhi turned around and met the complicated faces of Father and Mother Xie. When she thought of what the man named Zhao Jie said just now, Gu Nanzhi…

“No, uncle and aunt, please listen to my explanation. Wang Bingcheng and I…”

The matchmaker introduced that she only regarded Wang Bingcheng as a springboard to jump out of the fire pit of the Gu family!

No matter the original owner or her, they didn’t have any other ideas about that damn Wang Bingcheng. What wishful thinking is all nonsense!

However, before Gu Nanzhi could explain, Father and Mother Xie interrupted her directly.

“You don’t have to explain, we understand! We all understand!”

“It would be unfair for you to marry the boss if he’s like this. Even if he can wake up, it’s still unclear whether you’ll like him. He’s a bit of a fool, he’s a talkative guy and he’s not popular with girls. If you really don’t like him, we won’t blame you. We’ll take care of it for you and let you pursue your happiness!”

Gu Nanzhi heard this: “!!!”

No!

What happiness?

The eagle in the army who saved her life was lying in front of her. Only others could look down on her, but how could she look down on others?

She likes him! She likes him very much!

Even if she and Xie Zhenting can’t get married, she doesn’t plan to pursue any happiness. Wouldn’t it be nice to devote herself to scientific research?

In this backward and beaten country, her spring will come as soon as the college entrance examination is opened next year!

Even if she can’t do much openly, she can help a lot in secret!

In her mind, there are scientific research results that are a hundred years more advanced than this era. If she lets them off the hook, this era can avoid many detours…

Gu Nanzhi was thinking wildly, and the topic was diverted.

Half an hour later, the group went to the marriage office of the street office with great enthusiasm, but was turned away.

“Why don’t you give us a certificate? My son can’t get married because he is paralyzed? Even blind people can take wedding photos. Can’t we just support him from behind to take wedding photos?”

“It’s not just about the wedding photos. There is no page for your son in your household registration book!”

The person in charge was quite nice and patiently explained to them the missing page in their household registration book. Father Xie and Mother Xie were both at a loss.

On the contrary, Gu Nanzhi, who had expected this to happen, quickly accepted the reality and asked how she and Xie Zhenting could transfer their household registration to the Xie family if they didn’t get married. After getting the answer that there was still a way to register with relatives, Gu Nanzhi took them away from the street office.

“We already have the severance letter from Gu Youcai and Li Chunhua giving up me as their adopted daughter. As long as you are willing to adopt me and Gujia Village agrees to let me settle down, my household registration can be transferred here!”

“But it’s clearly marrying a wife, how can it be adopting a daughter?”

“The process is not important, what’s important is that we can become a family!”

Father and Mother Xie were quickly convinced. They went to the school to see Xie Zhenting’s youngest sister, gave her something, and hurried back home under her surprised and happy eyes.

Gu Nanzhi gave up the land in Xiejia Village and got the certificate issued by the village very smoothly. In the afternoon, they went to the town again and successfully transferred their household registration, but…
