Maybe he heard the noise outside the door. Han Suqing walked towards the door and met Li Ci and Lin Zhixia who happened to come in. Seeing that his son came back this time with a girl, Han Suqing almost lost his footing. Fortunately, Li Ci quickly gave him a hand with quick eyesight.
"Xiao Ci, this, this is?" Han Suqing looked straight at Li Ci, somewhat unbelievable, when her son suddenly became enlightened.
"This is Lin Zhixia," Li Ci said, pulling out Lin Zhixia who had been hiding behind him.
"Hello, Auntie," Lin Zhixia called softly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Han Suqing excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Lin Zhixia's hand, looking at the girl in front of her happily with a smile on her face. Lin Zhixia felt a little embarrassed and turned to look at Li Ci. She was still very nervous.
Li Ci looked at his mother's surprised and disbelieving eyes. He put his arm around his mother's shoulders and patted her gently, "Go in first. We can't be left standing at the door forever."
"Yes, yes, yes, come in quickly," Han Suqing said yes several times, pulling Lin Zhixia and walked directly in.
Lin Zhixia sat on the sofa with Han Suqing and called softly: "Auntie."
Han Suqing looked at the vaguely shy girl in front of her, which made her feel happy. Could it be that the phone call she made to her son a few days ago caused her stupid son to wake up by scolding her? Did you bring all your family back this time?
She quickly agreed, not to mention how happy she was. She pointed to the fruit on the table and said, "I've been riding in the car all morning. Let's eat some fruit first. The meal will be ready soon."
Seeing Lin Zhixia's restraint, Li Ci said in time, "Mom, what time will dad be back today?"
"There should be nothing wrong today. I'll be back soon." After saying that, he stood up and said as if he wasn't worried, "You two sit down for a while, and I'll make a phone call and ask again."
Looking at Han Suqing walking away, Lin Zhixia breathed out slowly, thinking that his mother was so beautiful, no wonder he was so good-looking.
Because Li Guohong had something to do and couldn't come back in time, Han Suqing simply arranged for them to have dinner first without waiting for him.
Halfway through the meal, a horn sounded outside. Lin Zhixia put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked up to see Li Guohong walking in, tall and straight, with a serious face.
Lin Zhixia stood up slightly and said, "Hello, uncle."
Li Guohong responded lightly, his sharp eyes scanning back and forth between the two of them.
"Eat first, and then talk after you finish eating," Li Ci said first before Li Guohong could ask.
Li Guohong pulled up his chair and sat down, and took a deep look at Li Ci. Their son was very skilled at cutting first and then playing.
"Let's talk," Li Guohong, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room after dinner, looked at the two people in front of him and said. But just after he finished speaking, Han Suqing glared at Li Guohong fiercely, "You have already gone home, why are you showing off to your chief? Spectrum?"
Li Guohong ignored Han Suqing and just kept looking at his son Li Ci.
Facing his father, Li Ci had a relaxed expression, but kept a standard sitting posture, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that the two of us are getting married."
"Have you thought it through?"
Li Ci glanced at Lin Zhixia and held her hand, "We have thought about it carefully, and we want to finalize things before I go on this mission."
"So urgent?" Li Guohong glanced at Han Suqing and frowned slightly.
"I don't have much time to begin with," Li Ci glanced at Han Suqing and said.
As expected, Han Suqing spoke first and said to Li Guohong, "Your son has already figured it out, do you still want to interfere here? You quickly call their political commissar Zhou and reduce the procedures as much as possible."
"Nonsense, it's just nonsense." Li Guohong placed the tea cup in his hand heavily on the table, suppressing his anger, "Don't you know what your son is thinking? Do you have to delay this girl?"
Han Suqing was speechless. After all, she had just called to urge her a few days ago, and she got a girl back just a few days later. She didn't feel relieved.
Lin Zhixia, who had been silent, said, "Uncle, I don't want to care about what he has in mind. I just know that we are the most suitable." And he had already told her the reasons why they were suitable.
Lin Zhixia silently encouraged herself in her heart because the aura of the person in front of her was too strong.
Li Guohong looked at the girl in front of him in silence, seeing sincerity in her eyes, which was completely opposite to his tone just now, and asked softly: "Have you really decided?"
Lin Zhixia nodded solemnly.
Li Guohong glanced at Li Ci and sighed softly, "Now that you have decided, just follow your wishes. I will call Political Commissar Zhou when the time comes."
"Thank you, dad," Li Ci's lips curled up slightly before the dust finally settled.
They rushed back to City T that night. Li Ci said that he had completed the procedures there and called her in advance. Lin Zhixia probably checked online and found that the procedures for military marriage were much more complicated. She thought she would have to wait for several days. Unexpectedly, only two days later, Li Ci called.
Lin Zhixia asked in surprise: "Is it going to be fine so soon?"
Li Ci hummed in a low voice, "Can you ask for leave tomorrow morning?"
"Can."
The two of them showed up at the Civil Affairs Bureau on time at nine o'clock the next morning. Lin Zhixia looked at Li Ci in front of the car, who was wearing a military uniform and had an upright posture. Compared with his calmness, she seemed uncomfortable.
Li Ci walked up to her and said, "Let's go in."
"Okay," Lin Zhixia nodded lightly. If she said she wasn't nervous, she would be lying.
There were not many people inside today. Li Ci showed his gentlemanly style in every aspect. He did all the trivial things such as filling out forms and making copies by himself. Everything was complete and the procedures were completed quickly.
When they came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lin Zhixia looked at the red marriage certificate that was still warm in her hand. It still felt unreal. She had been on blind dates before, but she didn't expect that she would get married now. There was no proposal, it was not love. People, just because they have a common purpose, to stabilize the "so-called family".
Lin Zhixia was still immersed in her own thoughts when she heard Li Ci say to her: "I have to leave in a while, and we may not be able to contact her during this time."
Lin Zhixia was inexplicably relieved when she heard the news. At least for now, she didn't have the courage to stay in the same room with him for a long time. She still needed some time to digest the fact of sudden marriage, so she was satisfied He said to Li Ci with a smile on his face, "Your work is important, so you should do your work first."
Li Ci took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Lin Zhixia, "This is the key to that house. You should move there soon. I don't have time to help you, so I called mom."
"No, I'm living quite well now," Lin Zhixia said in a low voice.
"Take it, now that we are married, I will take on the responsibility of a husband."
"I'm not doing this for you," Lin Zhixia suddenly raised her head and looked at Li Ci and said.
Li Ci resisted the urge to ruffle her hair, "I know, but we can't let our parents find out that we are living apart after we are married."
Lin Zhixia seemed to be caught in the trap of fate, and finally compromised and took the key.
Looking at the car shadow in the distance, Lin Zhixia stretched out her hand to catch a falling snowflake. The sky was originally clear, but at this moment, large, crystal-clear snowflakes fell from the sky. There was a chill in her hand. She knew what kind of future was waiting for her, but then she thought about it, and this was the worst...
