s.h.i.+ Xiaoya was surprised. “We’re not going to the family home first?”
After all, the two elders were there; no matter how you looked at it, they should go to the family home first.
“I am marrying the baby girl of your family. You’re the girl loved by your parents and your older brother, so of course we have to tell them first,” said Han Zhuoling. “Besides, if we go to the family home, we will definitely have to inform my parents, uncles and aunts, Zhuoli, Lu Man, and Zhuofeng. Won’t father-in-law and mother-in-law be the last to know then? We can’t do that.”
In the end, they still did what Han Zhuoling said and went to the s.h.i.+ residence first.
s.h.i.+ Nancang was still working. s.h.i.+ Xiaoya knew that if she did not tell him such big news, he would be angry.
So s.h.i.+ Xiaoya called s.h.i.+ Nancang.
But s.h.i.+ Nancang was currently having a meeting; his phone was on silent and he did not pick up.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya gave it a thought and sent s.h.i.+ Nancang a WeChat message. “Brother, I’ve gotten my marriage certificate. I am going to Mom and Dad’s place with Zhuoling to let them know.”
She was afraid that s.h.i.+ Nancang would blame Han Zhuoling for doing it before informing them, so she added, “I wanted to go to his family’s home first, but Zhuoling insisted on going to Mom and Dad’s place to let them know.”
After sending the message, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya let out a sigh.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya wanted to be cheeky and surprise her parents, so she did not tell them.
She was worried that s.h.i.+ Nancang would see the message before her parents reached home.
So she sent s.h.i.+ Nancang another message. “Don’t tell Mom and Dad. I want to surprise them.”
It really happened the way s.h.i.+ Xiaoya feared. After half an hour, they still had not arrived at the s.h.i.+ family’s house.
But s.h.i.+ Nancang’s meeting had already ended.
As he walked out of the meeting room and was turning off the silent mode on his phone, he saw s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s message.
The moment he saw the message, he swore.
He scared the staff and the managers of the various branches behind him.
“That br…” said s.h.i.+ Nancang angrily.
He wanted to say brat but thought that it was not suitable as Han Zhuoling was older than him.
So his words got stuck in his throat.
s.h.i.+ Nancang strode into the office and called s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
As soon as s.h.i.+ Xiaoya picked up, she heard s.h.i.+ Nancang’s fierce questioning. “You’re so bold now, huh? You won’t even let your family know beforehand when you’re going to get your marriage certificate. You just went straight away. You didn’t even tell us in advance!”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya realized that she had been careless.
However, s.h.i.+ Nancang’s voice was too loud. Even through the phone, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s ear hurt from his voice.
She held her phone farther away. Only after s.h.i.+ Nancang had finished shouting did she put the phone back to her ear.
“Brother, sorry. I was careless.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya could not find an excuse.
It’s true that they had only decided to do this at midnight yesterday.
If they said that it would not have been convenient to inform them at midnight, it would make sense.
But there had been so much time to do it in the morning, including the time when they were queueing up. s.h.i.+ Xiaoya had not even thought of it.
This was indeed her fault.
“You’re really…!” s.h.i.+ Nancang said angrily.
What was the use of saying sorry now?
They had already gotten their marriage certificate; he could not make them divorce now.
“You have gotten the marriage certificate already?” s.h.i.+ Nancang still asked.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya nodded. “Mhmm. We just got it. It’s still hot. Do you want to see?”
s.h.i.+ Nancang was speechless. “…”
He really wanted to knock some sense into this naughty kid.
After getting a definite answer from s.h.i.+ Xiaoya, s.h.i.+ Nancang felt like his family’s cabbage had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away by a pig.
