Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Getting the Certificate (1) Chapter 407: Chapter 407: Getting the Certificate (1) Gu Annan, let’s get married!
When he heard this, he forgot to speak for a moment.
Looking at the somewhat nervous little face before him, he still couldn’t quite believe it.
He had been preparing these days, just waiting for the ring to be delivered.
He couldn’t bring the deceased back to life, the only thing he could do was to use marriage as a commitment.
It would be his most important commitment.
He never expected that Lu Wanwan would beat him to it and say it first.
Lu Wanwan was very nervous as she watched his expression; Gu Annan was a man who rarely showed his emotions, so unsurprisingly, his face did not reveal any answer at this moment.
But his sudden silence deepened the uncertainty that had always been in her heart.
This was really too sudden, even though they had been engaged for less than half a year.
Maybe Gu Annan had never thought about getting married so early, few men wanted to get married early, after all…
Or maybe, he knew that her sudden request was also because she wanted to get Jin’an’s shares in a hurry.
Her grandmother’s sudden passing had made her relive the pain she had felt four years earlier.
Many times in nightmares, she experienced the moment she could never accept that her mother had left forever.
She thought about how disappointed her mother would have been if she saw the current state of Jin’an.
Besides, they were already engaged, only, she wished to move up the plan a bit but didn’t want to seem too purposeful.
“I was just… speaking off the cuff.” She had known this request was too abrupt, and upon hearing his silence, the initial nervousness turned into regret.
“Who told you that these kinds of words can be said off the cuff?” His resonant and low voice suddenly filled the air.
She stared a bit dazedly at his handsome face, “Is it not okay to correct something I said wrong?”
The corners of Gu Annan’s thin lips moved slightly as he watched her disconcerted little face, his eyebrows raising sharply, “Can words once spoken be so casually changed?”
“…” She furrowed her brow, looking at him with pleading eyes.
“Moreover, do you think that what you said was wrong?” His eyes narrowed dangerously, his long fingers lifting her chin.
Lu Wanwan’s heart seemed to skip a beat, “Then… what you mean is…”
If it wasn’t the wrong thing to say, did that mean he had agreed?
Suddenly getting up, Gu Annan wrapped his arms around her and walked her out of the study.
“Gu Annan, you…” Lu Wanwan tensed up, clutching his shoulders tightly, “Put me down, I can walk by myself.”
What was he planning to do in the bedroom in the afternoon!
As he held Lu Wanwan in his arms, she started to squirm near the bedroom door, and he gave a slight smack to her bottom, “Don’t move!”
“I don’t want to go in.”
Gu Annan ignored the protest, unlocked the door, kicked it open with his foot.
Upon entering, he glanced at the flushed face in his arms.
“Gu Annan, can you please put me down!” Lu Wanwan asked in a negotiating tone.
Gu Annan paused for a moment and set her down, “Be quick about it.”
Her face struggled even more as she spoke with difficulty, “… Is it necessary?”
He raised his eyebrows, his dark pupils flickering with meaning, “Hurry up… take off your clothes!”
After speaking, he smirked and walked into the wardrobe.
Lu Wanwan took that look to mean that Gu Annan was again insatiable.
She thought for a moment and then followed him, “Gu Annan, let’s talk about something… What are you doing?”
She entered to see Gu Annan changing clothes, apparently planning to go out.
He had just put on his shirt and didn’t look back, “Aren’t we getting married? If you don’t hurry, the civil affairs office will close.”
