Next time?
What would it be like when they got together next time?
Lu Jinshen was looking forward to it.
"Okay," Lu Jinshen replied perfunctorily and quickly got into the car.
When they were about to reach the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lu Jinshen suddenly stopped the car by the roadside.
Tong Qiao retracted her gaze from the window and turned to look at Lu Jinshen. "You've been looking at me a few times on the way here. Is something the matter?"
Lu Jinshen looked deeply at Tong Qiao and was silent for a few seconds. "Yeah."
Tong Qiao raised her eyebrows slightly and thought for a moment. "Can't you go and register your marriage?"
"It's not that."
Tong Qiao leaned against the seat and shifted into a more comfortable position. "Then what's the matter?"
Lu Jinshen's gaze fell on Tong Qiao's slender and fair fingers for a few seconds. "Your hands are very pretty."
Tong Qiao raised her hands in the air and looked at them. They were indeed pretty, but … "Why are you talking about my hands?"
Lu Jinshen recalled what Ji Ji had said over the phone. She had said that the atmosphere had to be ambiguous, and that his tone had to be gentle and affectionate. However, he really couldn't do these things.
He raised his elegant hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows. He lowered his eyes and remained silent for two seconds.
Suddenly, he leaned over and held Tong Qiao's hand. He put the wedding ring that he had prepared beforehand on her ring finger. "You'll look better with this."
Tong Qiao was stunned when she saw the ring that suddenly appeared on her finger. She looked up at Lu Jinshen and asked, "Is this a gift from you?"
"Yeah."
"A wedding ring?"
"Yeah."
"Oh." Tong Qiao raised her hand and looked at it for a moment. It wasn't an exaggeratedly shiny diamond ring. The design was simple. It was a circle with a few small diamonds in the middle.
"There are words engraved inside." Lu Jinshen's deep voice sounded in the car.
Tong Qiao was about to take the ring off her finger to have a look when Lu Jinshen stopped her. "You just put it on, don't take it off. You can take a look at it when you get home."
"Alright."
"Do you like it?"
Tong Qiao twirled her hand and gave Lu Jinshen a generous smile. "I do, but …"
"But what?"
"Shouldn't there be a ceremony before putting on the ring? Isn't it a bit too childish for you to pull my hand and put it on? "
Lu Jinshen pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned to Tong Qiao. He sat upright and raised his right hand to his forehead in a standard salute. "I wish to marry Tong Qiao. I'm willing to fight for this family for the rest of my life. I'm ready to sacrifice everything for my family at any time. I'll never betray you!"
Tong Qiao was shocked by Lu Jinshen's serious attitude, his serious and persistent gaze, and his deep and resolute voice. At this moment, she felt her heart beating especially fast. This military-style proposal was just too damn much to her taste.
Tong Qiao leaned over and kissed Lu Jinshen's thin lips. "Approved."
Lu Jinshen's eyes were surging with passion. He pulled Tong Qiao's shoulders over, held the back of her head, and kissed her.
They kissed passionately for a long time and only separated when they were panting.
The car started and stopped in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau not long after. Lu Jinshen and Tong Qiao walked to the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. A man in a suit was waiting for them at the entrance. When he saw them, he smiled and greeted them. "Sir, Madam, please come in. I've already made the arrangements. You can go in and complete the formalities."
Lu Jinshen nodded slightly. "Thank you, Sir."
"You're welcome. I wish Sir and Madam a happy life together! Forever in love! "
Lu Jinshen's cold eyes softened. "Thank you."
Tong Qiao put her hands in her trouser pockets and turned to Lu Jinshen. She asked in a low voice, "You made the arrangements in advance?"
"Yes." In order to get the marriage certificate as soon as possible, Lu Jinshen specially called Ji Ji in the morning and asked him to make the arrangements in advance.
The corners of Tong Qiao's lips turned up slightly. Her gaze fell on the ring on her left ring finger. The smile in her eyes was bright. It seemed that this marriage was going well.
When the two of them followed the Sir into the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lu Jinshen's cell phone rang. He took out his cell phone. Tong Qiao glanced at it casually and saw that the caller ID was Sheng Yufei. She instinctively frowned but did not say anything.
Lu Jinshen knew that Tong Qiao had seen it. He turned to look at her. "I'll take this call."
"Can you not spoil the fun at a time like this?" Tong Qiao did not hide her displeasure at all.
Lu Jinshen wanted to pinch Tong Qiao's hand, but she avoided him. "You and the Sir go in first. I'll be right there."
Tong Qiao felt a little uncomfortable, but she still left with the Sir with a straight face.
Lu Jinshen took the cell phone and walked to the window before answering the call. Sheng Yufei's sobbing voice immediately sounded through the phone. "Lu Jinshen … save me …"
Lu Jinshen furrowed his brows. "Yufei, what happened?"
"Stupid b * tch, give me the phone." The man's coarse voice sounded from afar, followed by a noise. Within a few seconds, Sheng Yufei's cell phone was snatched away by someone. The unfamiliar man's voice sounded through the phone. "What's your relationship with this stupid b * tch?"
Lu Jinshen's face darkened. "Get to the point."
"Hurry up and hand over two million dollars to ransom her. Otherwise, I'll sell this stupid b * tch to repay the debt."
Lu Jinshen asked in a low voice, "Where are you?"
"We're at this stupid b * tch's house. Hurry up and send the money over. If you don't come in half an hour, I'll take her away."
"Don't hurt her …" Before Lu Jinshen could finish speaking, the man on the other end hung up.
Lu Jinshen's gaze lingered on the corridor where Tong Qiao had disappeared for two seconds, then he turned and strode towards the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. On the way, he bumped into a staff member. He left after exchanging a few words with him.
Lu Jinshen drove to Sheng Yufei's house. The person who opened the door was a tall and muscular man with a scar on his forehead. "Who are you?"
Lu Jinshen's thin lips parted slightly. "The person who answered the phone just now."
"That woman's ex-husband?"
Lu Jinshen nodded.
The scarred man turned sideways to let Lu Jinshen in.
The strong smell of nicotine filled the room, and the air was filled with smoke.
When Lu Jinshen entered, he saw Sheng Yufei tied up and sitting on the sofa. There were two men standing beside her. Including the man who had opened the door, there were a total of three men in the room.
"Lu Jinshen …" Sheng Yufei looked at him with reddened eyes.
Lu Jinshen put his hands in his trouser pockets, his expression calm. His gaze swept across the three men, and finally landed on the scarred man who had opened the door. "Are you kidnapping her?"
The scarred man said, "Who kidnapped her? We're here to collect a debt. That woman's brother owes us two million dollars, and he's gone into hiding now. It wasn't easy for us to find his sister, so it's only right that we repay our debts. “
"Nonsense, how could my little brother owe you so much money?" Sheng Yufei said.
The scarred man said, "It's not up to you to decide whether he owes us that much or not. Why don't you tell me where your brother is? We'll find him and confront him face to face."
Sheng Yufei said, "I already said that I don't know where he is. Didn't you see it just now? I called him, but his phone was turned off."
