Chapter 79

Early the next morning, Lu Yunxiang got up and started preparing.

After all, getting a marriage license was a major life event.

She had to dress up properly.

She was going to dress up, and so was Zhou Yi’ran.

She even specially exchanged for a light and thin cushion and lipstick from the system mall to give her and Zhou Yi’ran a simple and pretty makeup look.

They even changed into beautiful new clothes.

She wore a Chanel-style dress and jacket, tied her hair in a princess bun, looking both beautiful and delicate, as well as playful and cute.

She paired Zhou Yi’ran with a professional outfit, highlighting her competence and neatness.

The white shirt made her look more intellectual and elegant.

Professional attire was a bit common in the future.

But in this era, it was definitely eye-catching.

Zhou Yi’ran had a good figure, and the professional outfit perfectly accentuated her curves, making her look voluptuous and charming.

Lu Ziqian, seeing such a unique Zhou Yi’ran, had a strong light in his eyes.

“You’re beautiful.”

This was the first time this wooden block of a man had complimented her.

She blushed shyly.

She also felt beautiful.

Lu Yunxiang simply did a few things on her face and changed her outfit, and she felt like a completely different person.

She was radiant!

She liked this version of herself.

She also liked Lu Ziqian’s compliment.

A lover’s praise is the best beauty treatment for a woman.

There was a knock at the door, and Lu Yunxiang quickly ran to open it.

Ji Mingjing had changed into a suit today.

But he was still handsome and upright.

Ji Mingjing looked at her, his eyes always filled with admiration.

He gently extended his hand to her: “Let’s go.”

Lu Yunxiang turned back to call Lu Ziqian and Zhou Yi’ran.

“Dad, Aunt Yi’ran, come quickly.”

Ji Mingjing didn’t think much of it, just thinking they wanted to witness Lu Yunxiang’s moment of happiness.

Lu Yunxiang directly told him: “My dad and Aunt Yi’ran are also getting their marriage license today, double the happiness!”

Ji Mingjing smiled.

“It’s definitely a good thing.”

Then he affectionately pinched Lu Yunxiang’s nose.

“You’re always full of ideas.”

Anyone with half a brain could tell this was Lu Yunxiang’s idea.

Actually, Zhou Pianran had asked Zhou Yi’ran when she would get her marriage license and get married with Lu Ziqian.

Zhou Yi’ran was very nonchalant.

She said Lu Ziqian’s work was special, and he didn’t have any extra energy for his feelings.

When she fell in love with Lu Ziqian, she had already prepared for everything.

No wedding, no marriage certificate, no children.

She had thought about all of this.

She wouldn’t force Lu Ziqian.

She was willing to love him.

She was happy.

Later, Zhou Pianran stopped mentioning it.

After all… Lu Ziqian’s situation was indeed special!

But Lu Ziqian’s achievements and character were there. Although he was a bit thick-headed in matters of romance, he was a rule-abiding and loyal person.

Even without a marriage certificate or a wedding, he wouldn’t mistreat Zhou Yi’ran.

They just let her be.

The four of them went to the photo studio together to take pictures.

Lu Yunxiang first took a beautiful photo with Ji Mingjing.

Then, at her strong request, she and Ji Mingjing changed into military uniforms and took another set of photos.

The military uniform set represented holiness and solemnity, and she planned to use it as their wedding photo.

The other one, where she was dressed beautifully, would be enlarged and hung at the head of her and Ji Mingjing’s bed.

Two birds with one stone.

Lu Ziqian and Zhou Yi’ran also took pictures, and they both looked very photogenic and well-matched.

Finally, the two couples went to get their marriage licenses.

The marriage license at that time had a red leather cover. When you opened it, it was like a certificate, with their photos in the middle.

The certificate stated their marriage vows and blessings.

Lu Yunxiang held it in her hand, she couldn’t put it down.

The smile in her eyes was about to overflow.

Ji Mingjing felt the same way.

Looking at the photo of them smiling brightly in their wedding photo, he whispered in her ear, “I will love you forever.”

His breath against her ear made her feel weak all over.

She looked at him with love in her eyes.

Her eyes were clear and bright.

“A Jing, I love you too.”

She couldn’t deny that she had been attracted to his looks when she first met him.

Later, she felt his intense love for her.

Coupled with his identity as a soldier, he gave her a feeling of warmth and reliability.

So their relationship progressed quickly, she didn’t resist at all.

She had never been loved in her last life.

This life, she wanted to love bravely.

To love those she loved.

To love those she cherished.

Ji Mingjing.

Leaving the civil affairs bureau, the sun outside was warm and made the atmosphere sublime.

Lu Yunxiang happily said to them, “Let’s go, I’ll cook something delicious at home, let’s celebrate.”

Ji Mingjing stopped her.

“Today is our special day for getting the certificate, don’t work too hard, let’s go to the state-owned restaurant!”

Of course, he loved the food Lu Yunxiang cooked.

But he felt even more sorry for her working hard in the kitchen.

He couldn’t bear it.

He would rather not eat the food she cooked than see her work so hard.

He married his wife to make her happy, not to marry a cook.

Lu Yunxiang laughed.

She squeezed his arm hard.

“A Jing, if I feel tired, I won’t do it. On the contrary, I love cooking, I love cooking for the people I cherish, the people I love. Besides, Dad is leaving soon, I want to cook him a few more meals. Okay, I know you’re worried about me. But, this is what I want to do, you don’t have to feel burdened.”

When Lu Yunxiang said this, the light in her eyes was very bright.

She wasn’t reluctant at all.

She truly loved cooking.

Especially for the people she cared about.

Seeing them eat happily made her happy.

So, the four of them went back to the courtyard.

Lu Yunxiang was busy in the kitchen, Ji Mingjing was even busier helping her.

He did everything except for cooking, he washed vegetables, chopped vegetables, and served dishes.

Lu Ziqian and Zhou Yiran watched from the opposite room.

Zhou Yiran said, “Mingjing is a man you can rely on, you can relax.”

Lu Ziqian nodded.

“I’m relaxed.”

Although he had been critical of Ji Mingjing before.

But to be honest.

There was no better son-in-law than Ji Mingjing.

Especially since he wasn’t chauvinistic.

He respected and cherished Lu Yunxiang.

Seeing the two of them so happy.

Lu Ziqian felt truly reassured.

He felt truly reassured leaving Lu Yunxiang in Ji Mingjing’s care.

Lu Ziqian turned his head, grabbed Zhou Yiran’s hand, his eyes filled with guilt.

“I’ve made you follow me, I haven’t even been able to give you a wedding, I…”

Zhou Yiran put her index finger on his lips.

“Ziqian, don’t think that way, I’ve never felt that you owe me anything. On the contrary, I think this is great. When I met you, I knew what kind of person you were, your life is dedicated to the country, the country is your first choice, and the country is also my first choice.”

“We have a big family, so we can have a small family. You’ve always done a great job, I’m proud of you.”
