"Let's go," Qiao Anhao said in a crisp voice. She waited for Lu Jinnian to walk out the door before following behind him.
Just as they were about to walk out the door, Qiao Anhao seemed to have thought of something and suddenly cried out, "Wait!"
Lu Jinnian thought that Qiao Anhao was going to go back on her words. His entire body trembled, and he stopped in his tracks. He turned his head with a fierce expression on his face, only to see Qiao Anhao running over to a cabinet. She pulled open the drawer and rummaged through it for a long time before grabbing a car key. She then quickly ran back to the door and looked up at him with a bright smile. "Let's go."
So she was just going to grab the car key... Lu Jinnian secretly let out a sigh of relief. He turned his head and led the way out.
The two of them took the elevator to the underground carpark. Qiao Anhao held the car key in front of a red Audi and unlocked it. She then handed the car key to Lu Jinnian. Lu Jinnian seemed to understand her intentions. He took the key, opened the driver's door, and sat in.
At around 4: 20 pm, the car steadily stopped at the main entrance of the civil affairs bureau.
The moment Lu Jinnian turned off the engine, Qiao Anhao unbuckled her seatbelt and reached out to push the car door open. She looked like she was about to get out.
Lu Jinnian sat in the driver's seat, not moving. Instead, he called out to her, "Qiao Qiao."
Qiao Anhao turned her head in confusion. She looked into his dark, spirited eyes with a hint of doubt. She let out a soft "En?"
Subconsciously, Lu Jinnian was telling him not to bother asking Qiao Anhao. He should just pull her in for a checkup, a photo, and a certificate. Then, she would be his real wife.
But he paused for a while, then asked, "Qiao Qiao, are you sure you want to marry me?"
She didn't know if it was because Lu Jinnian had thrown her aside too many times after they reunited, but when she heard his question, she felt an inexplicable sense of panic. She instinctively reached out and grabbed his sleeve. "Lu Jinnian, you can't be going back on your word, right?"
He was sorry that he made her feel so uneasy, but her uneasiness made him feel at ease.
Lu Jinnian reached out and unbuckled his seatbelt. In a flat tone, he said, "Let's go."
Qiao Anhao didn't say a word. She nodded and got out of the car first. She walked over to the driver's side, and when he got out, she took the initiative to hold his hand, as though she was afraid he would run away.
Lu Jinnian lowered his head, glancing at her hand that was holding onto his. His expression softened, and he returned her hand. He closed the car door and pulled her towards the hall of the city hall.
As he walked up the stairs to the entrance of the civil affairs bureau, he spoke again, "Once you enter, there's no room for regrets."
Qiao Anhao replied with an "Mmh", and said confidently, "Let's go."
Lu Jinnian stood on the spot, not moving. For the second time, he said, "Also, I won't accept a divorce."
Qiao Anhao nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking at rice. She used her chin to point towards the Civil Affairs Bureau and urged, "Let's go."
Lu Jinnian still didn't move. For the third time, he spoke again, "Are you sure?"
Qiao Anhao started to feel uneasy again from Lu Jinnian's dilly-dallying attitude. They were already at the entrance of the civil affairs bureau, was he going to run away at the last minute?
This time, Qiao Anhao didn't say a word. Instead, she grabbed onto his arm and used all her strength to drag him into the hall of the civil affairs bureau.
