He clenched his fists imperceptibly in a place where no one could see, and his thin lips formed a straight line, like a criminal awaiting sentencing, waiting for the judge’s final verdict.
If she sentenced him to life without parole, he would drag her down with him to serve it together.
Anyway, he no longer wanted to wait; since they had already consummated their relationship in Rainy City, it should progress even further.
Besides, a secret marriage is like a ticking time bomb.
Whether for him or for Chi Enen.
After many things had happened, Chi Enen hadn’t thought about the secret marriage. If she remembered and realized that she was married, what if she felt guilty and chose to give up on him? Or, if one day Chi Enen discovered he was her hidden marriage husband and felt deceived, disappointed in him, what then?
He was a soldier and a businessman; for more than twenty years, he had made countless decisions. He knew the risks and the potential payment for making a decision.
The risk of seizing the opportunity to pierce through the window paper was that the woman might retreat back into her shell.
The potential payment was her acceptance of his new identity, which also meant that their relationship would take a step further, and, it proved that she had come to like him a little more!
His clearly articulated fingers whitened from the force of his grip, his rosy thin lips pursed tightly, and his eyes, more beautiful than any artwork of Versailles, stared intensely at Chi Enen.
In those eyes, there was a storm and there was warm sunshine.
Chi Jingchen also looked at Chi Enen, predominantly with anger for his woman concealing such a significant matter from him.
Under the gaze of those two pairs of eyes, Chi Enen’s heart, which had been thumping wildly, gradually calmed down. Holding the bright red marriage certificate, she started to explain to Chi Jingchen, “Baby Chi, I’m sorry, I forgot to tell you.”
She forgot about something as important as her marriage!
He almost introduced his actual father and his mother’s husband to Teacher Loulou at the kindergarten!
Chi Jingchen was so infuriated that he stomped off toward his room in his big slippers, grumbling in a babyish tone, “I don’t care about you guys anymore!”
What kind of parents were these, getting married and still keeping it from him!
Let them do as they please!
He would not care anymore!
Bang!
The room door slammed shut.
Chi Enen’s head throbbed painfully, aware that Baby Chi was genuinely angry this time, and appeasing him might not be so easy. She rubbed the bridge of her nose and handed the marriage certificate back to the tense man on the sofa, “Sorry, I should have told you earlier about my secret marriage to register Bae Chi’s resident permit, I forgot about it.” She had always thought the secret marriage was just a clear-cut transaction, she paid, and the other person provided the Household registration. It wasn’t as though they had any real intimate relationship. But she hadn’t expected that person to be him.
Li Beijue’s heart, which had been suspended in mid-air, suddenly felt like it had fallen onto soft clouds. His Adam’s apple bobbed twice, “I thought you’d be angry.”
“I am angry,” said Chi Enen without hesitation.
“…”
Her eyes lit up with amusement as she continued, “I wasn’t right either, so let’s call it even this time. But next time something happens, you have to tell me.”
“You let Lin Anxin find you a man to marry, how was I supposed to tell you?” Li Beijue’s expression darkened at the mention of this.
Chi Enen really wanted to remind him of how terrible and hateful he was when they first reunited. But what came out was, “So fortunately, it’s you.”
Since that night five years ago, it’s always fortunately been you!
