Under the staff member's patient guidance.
Lin Xuan and Su Qingge took the paper and pen, then leaned over the table and began carefully filling in the information on the forms.
Rustle rustle—
Lin Xuan's pen tip danced across the paper; his handwriting was neat and forceful, each character seeming to reveal his respect for and cherishing of this marriage.
Beside him, Su Qingge filled things in while softly reading out every word, to make sure there were no omissions or mistakes—leaving nothing to chance.
Two and a half minutes later, the two of them finished at the same time, exchanged a smile, and their eyes were full of longing and expectation for the future....
"You two, please come with me."
Led by the staff member, Lin Xuan and Su Qingge arrived at a solemn corner—the oath area.
It was a small wooden platform, and the sacred Five-Star Red Flag was fluttering in the wind.
Under the national flag, the two of them placed their hands on the Constitution of the People's Republic of China and solemnly read out their marriage vows.
"We voluntarily become husband and wife; from today onward...."
Lin Xuan's voice was loud and firm, every word carrying his promise and hopes for the future.
Su Qingge followed along softly at his side, her voice gentle and sincere, filled with faith in and anticipation for love.
At the same time, she tightly held Lin Xuan's big hand; tears shimmered unconsciously in her beautiful eyes—condensed happiness.
Click! Click!
After the oath, the staff member also took a commemorative photo for the two of them, capturing this beautiful moment.
In the photo, Lin Xuan and his wife stood beneath the national flag, their smiles bright and happy, as if the whole world had become more beautiful because of their love....
Finally, the staff member solemnly handed two bright-red marriage certificates to Lin Xuan and Su Qingge.
Taking the certificates, both of them couldn't wait to flip them open. Seeing their names and photos on them, their eyes were full of joy and emotion.
On the marriage certificate.
The names 'Lin Xuan' and 'Su Qingge' were closely linked, as if reminding them they would join hands through the years ahead, and of the new life about to begin.....
At this moment, lovers finally became a pair.
The two became the most important people in each other's lives—becoming real husband and wife!!!
The whole process was simple, yet filled with solemnity and a sense of sacredness.
From lining up for a number, submitting materials, and filling out forms, to taking the oath, taking photos, and receiving the marriage certificate—each step represented an important moment as they stepped into the hall of marriage.....
Looking at the sacred marriage certificate in his hands, Lin Xuan suddenly turned to the girl beside him, grinned, and said:
"Wifey! The past can't be revisited—please advise me well for the rest of my life."
Hearing that.
Su Qingge smiled and looked up, giving a neat reply: "In this life, may there be no betrayal; in the next life, please be even more tolerant of me."
With his spirits rising, Lin Xuan continued, laughing as he spoke in verse, making a romantic confession:
"Loving you is like poetry and painted scrolls; feelings deep and rich, intoxicating the heart."
Su: "Holding your hand, never changing; together we'll go to the romantic edge of the world."
Lin: "Love is like the stars, never extinguished; feelings like flowers in bloom, never withering."
Su: "May I accompany you to the ends of the earth; may romantic love never grow old."
Lin: "With you in this mortal world, feelings never end; everything in the world becomes poetry."
Su: "Holding your hand, we'll grow old together; this life's vow—romance unchanging."
Lin: "Wind blows, flowers fall, longing rises; rain strikes pear blossoms, deep behind closed doors."
Su: "Years and years, feelings hard to end; I only wish to share the vast sky with you."
Lin: "Longing is like a dream, dreams like smoke; feelings deep as the sea, never changing."
Su: "May we walk the stormy road together; hand in hand, complete this life's bond."
......
Under the admiring gazes of everyone in the lobby, Lin Xuan and Su Qingge traded lines back and forth like this, smiling as they left the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The warm afterglow of the setting sun spilled across the road home.
Lin Xuan pushed the girl in the wheelchair, chatting and laughing as they headed toward home...
His gaze fell gently on Su Qingge; seeing her cheeks flushed red with excitement, endless love surged in his heart.
"Qingge, what time is it now?"
"Hm? Now? It's five-thirty. What's wrong?"
The sudden question made Su Qingge pause. She subconsciously glanced at her phone, then answered.
"Wrong×."
Lin Xuan shook his head. Under the girl's baffled look, he took her little hand and interlaced their fingers, smirking:
"This is the starting point of our happiness."
"........"
Realizing what he meant, Su Qingge rolled her eyes speechlessly.
Then she pinched Lin Xuan hard on the nipple.
Only after seeing him grimace in pain did, she huff, annoyed: "You're so greasy! Isn't that gross? →_→"
"Hurry up, go home! Didn't you say you wanted me to sing a duet with you? I want to hear it!"
"∠(°ゝ°) As you command, my lady wife. Hold tight! I'm going to speed up—charge~~~"
"Hey hey hey! Watch the safety! And don't yell so loud—if you're not embarrassed, I am."
"......."
Under the kindly, auntie-smile looks of passersby.
With "┗|｀O′|┛ Aooooo~~" in his mouth, Lin Xuan quickened his steps. Amid the girl's startled cries, he started running while pushing the wheelchair.
All along the way, it was filled with their laughter and the smiles overflowing with happiness.
At this moment.
The afterglow of the sunset bathed the young couple, illuminating their happy silhouettes from behind.
And just as Lin Xuan and his wife were enjoying a peaceful life, they had no idea someone was carrying the burden forward for them....
At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, a white van was parked.
Inside the van sat three vicious-looking, burly men. Each of them radiated a murderous aura—one look and you could tell their hands had been stained with plenty of blood.
"Boss, the target has appeared again. Do we move in and act now?"
In the driver's seat, the bald brute leading them stared at the backs of Lin Xuan and Su Qingge, a walkie-talkie still in his hand.
"Stand by for now. Don't startle them. A lot of groups have come this time; it's already drawn the attention of the Huaxia authorities. Now isn't the best time to make a move. Pull back first, and wait a bit longer...."
"Copy that, boss."
Beep beep beep—
After the call was cut off, the bald brute put away the walkie-talkie and shrugged helplessly at the other companions in the car.
"You heard it! Boss told us to retreat first. Let's go!"
"What a waste! If we act now, I have a 95% absolute confidence we'll succeed. Missing this chance is too damn unfortunate!"
"Exactly! One cripple and a rich second-gen with no strength—I'd poke them to death with one finger. I suggest we talk to the boss again and nego—"
"........"
Inside the van, while the three burly men were discussing and arguing....
The back door suddenly opened. Under their stunned gazes, an utterly ordinary-looking young man got in expressionlessly, sat down, and calmly closed the door again.
"Drive."
Silent~~~~
In an instant, only dead silence remained inside the vehicle, and only the young man's cold voice sounded.
"Oh right. While we're at it—let me ask first: are you mercenaries, or assassins?"
"What's your purpose for going after those two? Kidnapping? Assassination?"
"Depending on your answer, I'll grant you different ways to die....."
"......."
