Gu Qianqian snatched the contract with a satisfied smile, "Then I’ll be leaving."
"Little sister, thank you," Gu Shaocheng sincerely said from behind her.
Gu Qianqian grunted, "I’m not doing this for you but for my mother. My mother should have found a good man for her long ago! My father is not good enough for her. After he divorced her, he can marry anyone he wants!"
She knew that her uncle had always had a crush on her mother for many years. Now, she was going to convince that uncle to marry her mother! She wouldn’t mind having a stepfather!
Once Gu Qianqian left, Chenxing quickly ca in and asked him mysteriously, "Did Qianqian co to argue with you?"
Gu Shaocheng smiled, his laughter hearty and open, "In your impression, is the relationship between us, siblings, that bad?"
Chenxing shook her head, tilting it slightly. Seeing that he was in a good mood, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She ran over to Gu Shaocheng and hopped onto his lap, cheerfully, "So everything is settled now?"
He nodded.
"Did others have any objections?"
"Those who matter dare not object. The others, small people really, how does it matter if they object? I’ll host my parents’ wedding, who dares to make noise!"
Even if they dare make noise, they wouldn’t dare to do it in front of him.
Gu Shaocheng yawned. Since he returned from Japan, he hadn’t been sleeping much. He was constantly thinking about how to solve all the obstacles in front of him and arrange a joint burial for his parents.
Chenxing turned her head to look at his tired face, and lovingly rubbed his face, "Shaocheng, go get so sleep. You haven’t had a good sleep in days, you are starting to look like a giant panda on the brink of extinction."
"There’s still sothing unfinished."
With a sigh, he picked up a tissue and wiped his nose.
Endless days without sleep had made his cold worse. His spirit was a little low, his eyelids kept drooping due to fatigue, but he kept researching the ritual details from the docunts on his desk. He could have delegated, but he insisted on doing it all himself.
Chenxing was about to get down from his lap to let him work, but he held her back.
"Don’t move, behave, let hug you, to refresh my mind."
She chuckled, "How can holding boost your energy?"
"Maybe you are my refreshing balm, I’ve always thought that holding you clears my mind." He joked, while flipping through a few details about the ghost marriage rituals handed to him by his subordinates.
What a magical way to refresh oneself? Except for Gu Shaocheng himself, others might not understand.
Chenxing also started working. She took one of the docunts and started reviewing it. Whenever she found sothing good she’d circle it with a red pen, or simply show it to him to get his opinion. They worked well together, with the sun had already set before they knew it.
"Shaocheng, what do you think of this?" Chenxing flipped the page to show him, "This is an ancient ghost marriage proposal ceremony. It says here that the wedding room should pay homage to the "complete spirit", the groom’s photo or plaque should be placed on a small table on the bed. During the proposal, the bride’s side will also send soone to provide the bride’s photo or plaque, carry on the sedan chair... When they reached the wedding room, the groom and bride’s photos or plaques were tied together with a red string, implying the binding of the red thread... This is the completion of the ceremony. After the wedding ceremony, they would choose an auspicious date for a joint burial."
As Chenxing went on, she turned her head, only to find him fast asleep with his arms around her.
