When Xie Jinghui tried to coax Shen Shuangjian secretly going to the Netherlands with him and getting their marriage certificate, Shen Sixian on a business trip in London and had no idea what had happened.
At first, Xie Jinghui only said that they were going there to have fun.
Halfway through the game, he began to make his intentions, both overtly and covertly.
Finally, Shen Shuangjian confused, got the marriage certificate with him. When they came out, he was holding the marriage certificate in his hand, blinking blankly.
Xie Jinghui stood beside him, holding his hand, and seemed to be in a good mood.
He lifted Shen Shuangjian's hand, revealing the rings on their fingers, and took a photo using their marriage certificate as a reference.
Shen Shuangjian no reaction whatsoever.
The sound of the camera clicking was quite noticeable beside her ear. Shen Shuangjian blinked and subconsciously looked up at Xie Jinghui.
He clearly hadn't realized that from this moment on, he and Xie Jinghui were already a legally married couple.
They really got married.
" Zhizhi, what are you thinking about?" Xie Jinghui smiled gently and reached out to stroke Shen Shuangjian fell over her shoulder.
"I... we."
Shen Shuangjian pushed away Xie Jinghui's hand that was near his ear, and then belatedly blushed.
Xie Jinghui knew what he was going to say. Instead of backing down, he stepped forward, his voice low and deep. "We're married."
A simple, understated sentence seemed to make Shen Shuangjian blush more than countless kisses or intimate acts.
Shen Shuangjian's unusually embarrassed expression, Xie Jinghui held his hands, but he was so ashamed that he couldn't help but squat down on the ground, his desire to escape was very obvious.
"I, I..."
Shen Shuangjian speechless. He never imagined that one day he would live with another person, even get a marriage certificate, and become a true lover and family member.
" Shen Shuangjian, I love you."
At this point, Xie Jinghui seemed unwilling to reiterate the introductory text.
He got straight to the point, expressing his true feelings.
"From this day forward, you are my husband, my wife, my lover, and of course, I am your lover too."
Shen Shuangjian's eyes held a misty haze, a faint sorrow, and countless other indescribable and inexplicable emotions.
The world is a vast and complex place, and he alone is deeply entangled in it. How could Xie Jinghui be willing to accept this?
For him, marriage was a cage, a chain, a weapon to pull out the claws of a beast, and also the closest connection between him and Shen Shuangjian.
From then on, no one could separate them with just a few words.
Even if the journey to find Shen Shuangjian is fraught with danger and difficulties, even if it is painful and torturous, Xie Jinghui will still be grateful for this thin piece of paper.
Where there is love, there is no pain; where there is love, there is no sadness.
Shen Sixian learned about their marriage registration from Shen Shuangjian's WeChat Moments.
That day, Xie Jinghui posted an empty Moments update and changed the default background image to the photo he had taken.
Not content with posting it himself, he also used Shen Shuangjian's phone to post the same content on his WeChat Moments.
When Shen Sixian found out, he rushed back from London that very day.
When he came to kick down the door, even though Xie Jinghui was prepared, Shen Sixian still managed to graz his lips with a punch.
Shen Sixian on the verge of exploding in anger. He grabbed Shen Shuangjian and angrily threw down a single sentence.
"You think you can get away with Zhizhi lying to me about getting the marriage certificate? Marriage can end in divorce! You despicable scoundrel, wait for the divorce agreement!"
Shen Sixian didn't say a word, ignoring even Shen Shuangjian's wishes, and pulled her away.
Xie Jinghui had expected him to react this way.
It's okay, though.
Even though Shen Shuangjian remained hesitant and uncertain, and even though they divorced shortly after getting married, Xie Jinghui was still willing to go through the cycle again and again.
He was always getting closer, and even if Shen Shuangjian that this sea would never have any waves, he would still be willing to travel thousands of miles to find a place to live.
Xie Jinghui silent and cleaned up the mess.
He wondered to himself how long he would have to wait before he could enter the Shen Residence again after this.
How long do I have to wait after the divorce before I can remarry Shen Shuangjian?
He knew that Shen Shuangjian was always obedient and not a rebellious child.
He also knew that Shen Shuangjian to marry him was only a temporary misconception, and that she had been deceived by his sweet words.
Or rather, it wasn't just sweet talk.
When the knocking sounded, Xie Jinghui suddenly remembered that he seemed to have ordered flowers, just like others had.
Unfortunately, it's no longer needed.
Xie Jinghui walked over and opened the door. Her originally cold expression softened the moment the door opened, revealing a surprised tenderness.
" Zhizhi?"
At the door, Shen Sixian stood in front, unable to hide his anger. Behind him, Shen Shuangjian clutched the hem of Shen Sixian's suit jacket, her head bowed and silent.
Shen Sixian compromised.
Not for any other reason than the tears Shen Shuangjian.
On the way back, he dragged Shen Shuangjian along, and Shen Shuangjian didn't say a word; only Shen Sixian kept cursing.
After getting into the car, Shen Sixian said a lot of harsh things.
He said he would make Xie Jinghui pay the price, he wished he could shoot Xie Jinghui, he said he would make the two of them divorce, and he said he would forbid Shen Shuangjian Xie Jinghui again.
He added, "What kind of trustworthy person would someone be to lie to you and get a marriage certificate without their family's knowledge?"
Shen Shuangjian silent in response.
He simply lowered his head, his long hair cascading down, and in his downcast eyes lay a sadness and resentment that he himself was unaware of.
She didn't even know which of her words had been harsh, but Shen Shuangjian to heart and believed it. Soon, her light-colored eyes welled up with tears, which froze in her eyes, threatening to fall.
Shen Sixian froze on the spot for a moment.
A few minutes later, he sighed softly and ordered, "Turn around."
On the way back, perhaps he was really afraid that Shen Sixian as he said and take a knife to cut Xie Jinghui into eight pieces.
Shen Shuangjian kept gently tugging at his clothes, without saying a word, and just followed him with her head down.
Seeing this, how could Shen Sixian not understand?
It turns out that Xie Jinghui.
Shen Shuangjian this stubbornly; the number of times she has made him this unhappy and sad can be counted on one hand.
Just taking him away from Xie Jinghui's side was enough to make him pout and look dejected, practically ready to cry all the way.
Love is a truly irrational thing.
It could make Xie Jinghui its authority and from then on, always be lenient and yielding.
It could make Shen Sixian, who was arrogant and sarcastic in the first half of his life and only wanted to control everything, willingly bow his head and compromise again and again.
Even the noble white peony, which never seemed to care for worldly affairs and was always self-pitying, finally abandoned its unyielding spirit and tilted so that it could be picked and plucked into one's palm.
Love is irrational, unfair, and doesn't care about who has more or less, or who came first or last.
It only discusses the myriad principles of worldly law.
It's no match for a simple "I'm willing."
