What's your feeling at the beginning? The aloof lawyer is crying!

Gu Jiang's heartbeat quickened unconsciously. He held Lin Yizhi's hand tightly, his palms full of sweat. He put his lips close to Lin Yizhi's ear, and his voice was full of nervousness and expectation: "Baby, do you know? At this moment I feel like I'm standing in front of the door of destiny. As long as the door opens, we can enter the eternal kingdom that belongs only to us. I'm a little nervous, but also very excited, because I know that no matter what, as long as you are by my side, I'm not afraid of anything." Lin Yizhi gently covered Gu Jiang's hand with her other hand, looked up at him slightly, her eyes firm and full of love: "Dear, I understand how you feel. In fact, I feel the same way. Behind this door is our common future and our home with our baby. No matter what we encounter, we will face it together, because our love is the most powerful force."

After a while, the staff member looked up and said with a smile: "There is no problem with the information. Please wait a moment. I will handle the follow-up procedures for you." Gu Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, with a relieved and extremely happy smile on his face. He gently scratched Lin Yizhi's nose, with a gleam of joy in his eyes: "Dear, we are one step closer to that happy destination. I can't wait to start every new tomorrow with you."

Then, they came to the oath-taking room. The room was not big, but it was decorated warmly and solemnly. A bright five-star red flag was hung on one wall, and opposite was an oath-taking platform with a beautiful book on marriage law on it. Gu Jiang and Lin Yizhi stood in front of the oath-taking platform, and the staff stood aside and solemnly read: "Please ask the bride and groom to face each other and put their right fists on their left chests."

Gu Jiang and Lin Yizhi did as he was told. Their eyes met tightly. There seemed to be a sea of ​​stars in their eyes, with only each other's figures reflected in it. Gu Jiang straightened his back and took a deep breath. His voice was steady and passionate, and every word was filled with his endless affection and commitment to Lin Yizhi: "I, Gu Jiang, at this sacred moment, in the presence of heaven and earth and everyone, I am willing to marry Lin Yizhi as my wife. Whether you are poor or rich, healthy or sick, smooth or bumpy, I will hold your hand tightly and never leave you. I am willing to be your harbor that protects you from the wind and rain, and to hold up a clear sky for you in the wind and rain; to light a bright lamp for you in the long dark night; to guide you in the direction of progress when you are confused. Yizhi, you are the brightest star in my life, the one my heart desires, and the one I will always love." Lin Yizhi Tears sparkled in her eyes, tears of emotion and happiness. Her lips trembled slightly, but her voice was clear and firm: "I, Lin Yizhi, am also willing to entrust my life to you, Gu Jiang, at this solemn moment. I will walk side by side with you, whether it is a sunny avenue or a thorny path, whether it is sweet laughter or bitter tears, I will taste it with you. I will use all my tenderness and love to accompany you through every morning and evening, comfort you when you are tired, and share the glory with you when you succeed. Our love nest will be built by us together. No matter how time changes, my love for you will only become deeper, like aged wine, the longer it is, the more fragrant it is."

After the oath, the staff handed them two brand new marriage certificates. Gu Jiang took them excitedly, his hands trembling slightly with excitement, as if this small certificate carried their fate in past and present lives and the promise of eternal happiness in the future. He turned and looked at Lin Yizhi, holding her face gently but firmly with his hands. His eyes were deep and blazing, as if he wanted to melt her whole body in his gaze: "Yizhi, from today on, you are my wife. This is no longer just a simple love talk, but a dual contract of law and heart. I will use all my life to love you, to protect you and our baby. This certificate is the medal of our love, witnessing the hardships and sweetness we have gone through, and also foreshadowing the beautiful journey we are about to embark on." Lin Yizhi's tears could no longer be restrained, and they fell like pearls from a broken string. She nodded gently, her throat seemed to be blocked by happy sobs, and she could only make a sobbing but firm voice: "I believe you. This is a new starting point for our love. I am full of joy and expectation, and I am willing to walk through every spring, summer, autumn and winter with you hand in hand, until the end of time."

Coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the sun shone on them, casting long shadows. Gu Jiang held Lin Yizhi's hand and strolled on the street. The flowers on the roadside swayed gently in the breeze, as if blessing them. Lin Yizhi looked at the marriage certificate in her hand, her heart full of happiness and longing.

When they got home, Jiang Tingyan and Lin Wanyi were already waiting at the door with their eldest daughter Lin Yuelin and youngest son Lin Ruize.

Seeing them coming back, Lin Yuelin ran up excitedly, circled around Lin Yizhi a few times, stared at the marriage certificate, and cheered: "Auntie, you and Uncle Gu Jiang are getting married! That's great!"

Lin Ruize also clapped and cheered. Lin Huaicheng and Song Rouying walked out of the house with pleased smiles on their faces. Lin Huaicheng looked at Gu Jiang and nodded with satisfaction: "Gu Jiang, you must treat Yizhi well in the future."

Gu Jiang replied solemnly: "Dad, don't worry, I will."

The family sat together, and laughter filled the whole house. Lin Yizhi looked at her relatives around her, felt the movement of the baby in her belly, and silently thanked God for his gift. On this beautiful day, she gained love and family affection, and was about to welcome the birth of a new life. Her future life was full of infinite possibilities and hope.

The days flowed slowly and peacefully like a trickle of water. Lin Yizhi's pregnancy became more and more stable and smooth under Gu Jiang's careful care. Gu Jiang happily devoted himself to the preparations for the arrival of the baby, especially the layout of the baby's room, which he did personally, striving for perfection. He repeatedly stroked each soft carpet and carefully identified its texture, just to give the baby the most comfortable touch; he carefully selected each lovely mural, and the cute little animal patterns and colorful fairy tale scenes were all elements that could create a beautiful dream for the baby in his eyes. When assembling the crib, he tightened each screw attentively, his eyes were firm and fiery, and fine beads of sweat gradually oozed out of his forehead, but he was unaware, as if at this moment the only thing in the world was this crib in front of him that carried countless expectations. During this time, he would stop what he was doing from time to time, turn his head and look at Lin Yizhi, his eyes full of longing for the new life and respect for her, and asked softly: "Dear, do you think it's okay to put this bed next to the window? This way the baby can get some sunshine in the morning." Lin Yizhi tilted her head slightly, thought for a moment and gave her opinion, the two smiled at each other, and the air was filled with sweetness and warmth. (End of this chapter)
