“Xixi, you can’t do this.” Jiang Yuning became anxious. “Who said that you would take a leave of absence when you go back? You have to acpany me properly and then go on a trip with me.”
Nian Xi sighed. She had gone out for a while this time and had a few more cases piled up in her hands. “If I want to go on a trip, I have to take annual leave. My previous annual leave was unused. I will hand in an advanced notice this time. However, I can’t go out and have a trip right away. I still have to finish the cases in hand and wait for the higher-ups to approve my annual leave.”
“Oh, okay.” Jiang Yuning was disappointed, but it was only for a short while. Nian Xi had already promised him to use her annual leave.
“What time will you arrive at the airport tomorrow? I’ll pick you up.”
“Twelve o’clock,” Jiang Yuning said. “Are your parents free? Let’s have lunch together.”
“There’s no need to be in such a hurry.” Nian Xi was amused. “We can have dinner at night.”
“We discussed it in the afternoon. We’ll get the marriage certificate tomorrow afternoon. Oh right, I’ll bring the house register with me,”Jiang Yuning said cheerfully.
“…”
Nian Xi’s mind went blank. Was there a need to rush?
“Why aren’t you speaking?” Jiang Yuning was puzzled.
“You didn’t tell me you were going to get the marriage certificate tomorrow afternoon.” Nian Xi felt that she was very confused.
“Didn’t I mention it now?” Jiang Yuning said matter-of-factly, “Are you not willing again? Do you dislike my disfigurement…”
His tone suddenly became very resentful, “I think it’s justified to live with you after getting a certificate. Otherwise, your father would keep staring at me. In the past, we didn’t go to the last step when we lived together, but the morning I left… I should have married you three years ago.”
“Mm, alright.” Nian Xi heard him say so much and understood the gist of it. “I’ll get the certificate tomorrow.”
Jiang Yuning chuckled. “Alright, I’ll move directly to your place tomorrow.”
…
In the afternoon, Nian Xi sat in her office in a daze. Actually, she still had a lot of cases to investigate, but now she couldn’t concentrate at all and was inexplicably excited.
In the end, she simply walked out and said to her colleagues, “Don’t work overtime today. I’ll treat you to dinner and karaoke this afternoon.”
Everyone was stunned. Fang Qi immediately understood and nodded. “It’s indeed time for you to treat.”
Everyone was high until very late at night. Nian Xi drank a lot of beer. Because she was too happy, she became drunk in the end. Later on, she became dizzy and directly took a car back to the Nian family’s old residence.
Nian Qingyun came out in his pajamas, and when he saw her staggering in from outside, he couldn’t help but frown. “You’re a police officer, and you’re drunk. This is outrageous.”
“Dad, Dad…” Nian Xi looked at him and giggled. “Hurry up and give me the household register.”
“What?” Nian Qingyun looked at her vigilantly.
“I’m going to register tomorrow, Hurry up and give it to me.” Nian Xi kept pushing him. “I have a short memory. I’m afraid that I’ll forget, so I have to sleep with the house register in my arms.”
Nian Qingyun pulled her hands away and said in shock, “Why didn’t you tell me that you’re going to get married? Does your mother know? She hasn’t even met Jiang Yuning’s parents. I don’t agree.”
“I’ll see you at noon tomorrow. We’ll go and get the certificate in the afternoon.” Nian Xi pouted and shook Nian Qingyun’s arm. “If you don’t agree, I’ll go and look for it myself.”
Nian Qingyun couldn’t stop her. In the end, he had no choice but to give her the household register. Nian Xi was so drunk that she didn’t even have a shower. She hugged the register booklet and fell asleep.
