Chapter 938: Chapter 561: Major Chaotic Scene; No Marriage Certificate, but Came Back with a Child (Part 2)
Thinking to myself:
After all, sheās a young girl, shy and bashful.
"No, everyone has been waiting so long, Jiangjiang and Taotao must be hungry." Shen Shuci signaled to the two children.
Jiangjiang, with an innocent look, said, "Iām not hungry yet."
Shen Shuci: "..."
Everyone there was perceptive, and they all roughly guessed that Old Shen definitely had something to announce. Ruan Mengxi even secretly asked Tang Wan if it was about announcing a marriage.
Shen Shuci kept signaling to Huo Qinqi.
But Huo Qinqi was also in a difficult position. After all, this was his father-in-law; he couldnāt just go up and cover his mouth to stop him from speaking, could he?
"Hey, what are these two kids doing? Flirting with each other?" Fan Mingyu laughed.
At this moment, Old Shen also spoke up...
"These two kids might be used to keeping things low-key and are too shy to talk about their affairs openly, so Iāll take this opportunity to tell everyone that they went and registered their marriage today."
...
There was a brief silence in the room. The Huo family members were all stunned because Huo Qinqi hadnāt informed them in advance.
Huo Ran was wide-eyed: No wonder my brother dressed so flashy today, turns out it was to register the marriage.
"This is great news! We should celebrate," Liang Yun was the first to react.
"Congratulations, Aunt!" Everyone began to congratulate her.
Jiang Chengsi, quick to adapt to situations, said directly, "Get the marriage certificate out so we can see. I want to know what your photo on the certificate looks like."
"Yeah, letās see it," Qi Zeyan joined in the fun.
"I want to see it too," Huo Ran also raised his hand.
The atmosphere in the room immediately became lively. Everyone was enthusiastically urging the couple to take out the marriage certificate. Normally, people wouldnāt dare to jest with these two.
One was naturally intimidating, and the other was of higher seniority, but on such a joyous day, a little jesting was harmless.
The younger generation was causing a ruckus while the older generation watched the fun from the side.
"Old Huo, why are you hesitating? Take out the marriage certificate!" Jiang Chengsi got up and walked over to him. "This isnāt confidential, show everyone."
"If you donāt take it out now, Iāll just have to use force."
"Hurry up."
...
The marriage certificate isnāt anything rare, but given the atmosphere, everyone wanted to see it. Jiang Chengsi even started to reach for his pockets.
This made Qi Zeyan extremely anxious:
He also wanted to join in the fun, but being unable to walk well, he could only watch anxiously.
Huo Ran was just all talk. He wouldnāt dare joke with his brother face-to-face, so he just focused on enjoying a plate of salted peanuts.
Just when Jiang Chengsiās hand touched Huo Qinqiās pocket, Huo suddenly reached out and clamped down on his wrist. He stood up abruptly, causing the chair to scrape loudly on the floor, breaking the lively atmosphere, and the entire room fell silent.
"Whatās wrong? Itās just a marriage certificate, why such a big reaction?" Jiang Chengsi withdrew his hand, rubbing his wrist slightly.
Being the one involved, he could feel how strong the grip was.
Shen Shuci was just about to speak when Huo Qinqi said, "We didnāt register."
"Coughāā" Huo Ran was suddenly choked on some peanuts, making him cough violently, his throat feeling like it was on fire.
At this moment, Old Shen suddenly stood up excitedly, making such a big move that his chopsticks fell to the ground, "Huo Qinqi, what did you say?"
The whole room instantly fell into dead silence.
Jiang Chengsi immediately sheepishly slinked away from the scene.
Damn?
Old Shen just announced the registration of the marriage, and it had to be something they negotiated. Now Huo Qinqi turned around and said they didnāt register?
Isnāt this a blatant slap in his father-in-lawās face?
Itās something he would do...
"Qinqi, what are you saying?" Liang Yun laughed, "Donāt joke about this, itās not something to be played with. Sit down quickly."
Although the registration was rather sudden, Liang Yun was genuinely happy from the bottom of her heart. She was just consulting with Fan Mingyu about the things to pay attention to when holding a wedding.
Huo Zheng also spoke, "Thereās so many elders here, be careful with your words!"
"Yes, how can you joke about something like this, sit down and eat." Mrs. Jiang joined in trying to mediate.
...
Because Old Shenās face had already turned very sour.
Whatās the meaning behind this?
He had already accepted and agreed to the registration, even announcing this happy news in front of so many people.
And now youāre giving me a slap in the face?
He hadnāt spent much time interacting with Huo Qinqi, but he knew that he usually didnāt joke in his speech, and certainly wouldnāt talk nonsense about this matter.
