Lu Jingchen opened the car door and directly took out his ID card and household registration book from inside the car, which were kept in a small paper bag. He opened it to have a look, and after making sure they were his and not Gu Xicheng’s, he gave Gu Xicheng—who was standing there—a cold glance and spat out two words, "Goodbye!"
Gu Xicheng was stunned. By the time he came back to his senses, he saw Lu Jingchen already entering the marriage registration office, holding that girl’s hand. A delayed reaction hit him, ’Damn, I gave up such good sleep to bring you your ID card and household registration book from far away to get married, and you, Lu Jingchen, can’t even say thank you?’
Because today wasn’t a special day, nor a suitable one for marriage, there were only sporadic people registering their marriage in the office!
From the start to the end, Lu Jingchen was holding Song Qiao’s hand. The man’s palm was large, and although Song Qiao’s hand was not small, it seemed somewhat tiny in his grasp!
A couple had just finished their registration in front, and Lu Jingchen immediately pulled Song Qiao forward to get ready!
The staff finished processing the previous couple’s documents and then looked up at the man and woman in front of her. The employee, who looked like a twenty-something young woman, couldn’t take her eyes off them and couldn’t help admiring inwardly, thinking that such a handsome man actually existed in the world!
Lu Jingchen never really liked being so close to strangers, especially seeing the employee staring at him like that, his eyebrows inevitably furrowed!
Song Qiao had been standing on the side without speaking. She was tightly clutching her own ID card and household registration book, her face flushed with a hint of red, unsure if it was because Lu Jingchen was holding her hand that made her feel a bit uncomfortable!

Perhaps intimidated by Lu Jingchen’s somewhat frosty gaze, the employee subconsciously shrank her neck and then immediately put on a professional smile. She asked, "Are you here to get married or divorced?"
Before Lu Jingchen could open his mouth, Song Qiao on the side poked her head out and asked somewhat foolishly, "Can you also get divorced here?"
Lu Jingchen: "..." — His handsome face instantly darkened a few shades!
This woman, they weren’t even married yet, and she was already thinking about divorce!
The staff member was taken aback, then smiled and nodded, "For marriage, that’s right here with me. For divorce, it’s next door. So may I ask if you’re here to register for marriage or for divorce procedures?"
"Marriage!" This time, Lu Jingchen didn’t give Song Qiao the opportunity to speak and simply uttered two words!
The staff member nodded, then asked the two to sit down before saying, "Please present your ID cards and household registration books!"
Lu Jingchen handed over his ID card and household registration book to the staff member and, seeing that Song Qiao didn’t move, he raised his eyebrows and directly took her ID card and household registration book from her hand to hand them to the staff member as well!
After checking both their ID cards and household registration books, confirming they met the marriage requirements, the staff member took out two forms and handed them to Lu Jingchen and Song Qiao, smiling as she said, "Please fill in this information, and after that, take a photo and go through some procedures, and that’s it!"
Then, she turned to look at Song Qiao, who still seemed a bit unwilling, and asked, "Miss, you seem to be somewhat reluctant to get married. May I ask if this is voluntary?"
