Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 22 Get the certificate

As for the others, Sheng Zexi said he wanted them all, especially Gu Jianing's solo photo and the photo of the two of them together, which he solemnly placed in his wallet in front of Gu Jianing.

Looking at the way the man cherished it so carefully.

Gu Jianing couldn't help but think of her past life. In her past life, she and Wen Zhuqing got their marriage certificate and took photos.

Wen Zhuqing didn't seem to care much, so she just casually took a picture.

Gu Jianing was so engrossed in the joy of her upcoming wedding that she didn't notice.

Now, comparing him to Sheng Zexi, it's immediately clear what the difference is between genuine feelings and pretense.

Sheng Zexi carefully placed the photo away, and when he looked up, he saw the little girl staring at him with a strange look in her eyes.

She couldn't help but reach out and tap Gu Jianing on the head. "What are you looking at? Your eyes are so strange."

The little girl's gaze was so strange, so strange that it was hard to describe. It seemed to be a mix of sadness and relief.

Sheng Zexi couldn't decipher it, but that look was fleeting, so fast that Sheng Zexi almost thought he had misread it.

Gu Jianing covered her head with both hands, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and her red lips pursed slightly. "Why did you hit me? It hurts."

In fact, Sheng Zexi was careful not to hit her too hard, but Gu Jianing inexplicably wanted to act cute and pretend to be wronged.

I just want to know if Sheng Zexi will feel sorry for her.

As expected, upon hearing her words, Sheng Zexi frowned, a look of worry appearing in his eyes, and leaned over to try and push her hand away.

"Does it really hurt? Let me see."

I shouldn't have hit you.

Gu Jianing was smug. That's right, that's how it should be. But the next second, a man's deep and magnetic voice came from above her head.

"I'm already stupid enough. If I fight again, I'll become even stupider. Would I end up marrying a stupid wife?"

"Sheng Zexi!" Gu Jianing raised her fist as if to hit him, threatening, "Be careful, or I won't go to get the marriage certificate with you."

Sheng Zexi seemed to have his Achilles' heel instantly exposed, and stopped dodging. A helpless smile appeared on his face as he raised his hands. "Alright, alright, I admit defeat. I was being cheeky. My fiancée, please forgive me, I'm a little girl who doesn't hold grudges."

After saying that, he leaned closer mischievously and said, "Next time I see any pretty clothes, hair clips, or jewelry, I'll buy them all for you."

He knew that this little girl loved beauty and all kinds of pretty things.

Gu Jianing gave a soft humph, glared at him coquettishly, and said with a captivating charm, "That's more like it."

Gu Jianing was appeased; she wasn't really angry to begin with.

I just think Sheng Zexi's mouth is really too rude and too vicious.

However, she did not ask him to change.

Having been reborn, Gu Jianing has actually seen through many things.

She felt that sometimes, instead of pointing out what's wrong with someone, it's better to think about why that person turned out the way they did.

Is Sheng Zexi born with a sharp tongue?
of course not.

Gu Jianing vaguely felt that it might be related to his family of origin.

However, we'll discuss these things after we meet the other members of the Gu family.

After getting their wedding photos, the two quickly went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate.

At that time, marriage certificates resembled red certificates of merit, a stark contrast to those of later generations.

However, as the two walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau holding their marriage certificate, which resembled an award certificate, it also signified that they were now husband and wife. A gentle breeze was blowing, and time seemed to stand still in this pleasant moment.

Gu Jianing felt somewhat dazed, as if time and space were intertwined.

But she quickly regained her senses.

The sunlight fell on the man, as if coating him with a layer of radiance.

Sheng Zexi is undoubtedly tall and handsome. Coupled with his military uniform, standing here, countless girls on the street would have their eyes on him, as if they were attracted by the light emanating from him.

Gu Jianing thought that Sheng Zexi, whether in his past life or this life, was such a shining person.

The light he radiated, whether in past or present lives, fell upon her, bringing her ample warmth and love.

Gu Jianing silently thought to herself: Sheng Zexi, I will live a good life with you. We will definitely live a good life together in this lifetime.

After receiving their marriage certificate, Sheng Zexi took Gu Jianing to a hotel and then picked up Sang's maternal grandparents to have dinner at a state-run restaurant.

The two elderly people are currently staying in a hotel and plan to stay until Sheng Zexi and Gu Jianing finish their banquet before returning home.

Actually, they couldn't have stayed that long, especially the National Weapons Research Institute, which really needed Grandpa Sang to go back.

But Grandpa Sang said that he hasn't used up all the annual leave he's accumulated over the years.

In the past, he didn't care much about whether or not he took annual leave.

Grandpa Sang was also a person who was passionate about research.

But now it's the day his grandson is finally getting married and having a banquet, so he and his wife definitely want to stay and attend before leaving.

Since Grandpa Sang had made this decision, there was nothing the research institute could do to urge him, since they had a valid reason. However, because of Grandpa Sang's special status, they secretly sent more people to protect him.

The two elderly people were overjoyed to learn that the two had registered their marriage, and they kept calling out "Ningning" to her, showing how much they loved Gu Jianing.

Sheng Zexi looked at the three of them getting along so well, and a smile and gentleness appeared in his eyes.

After finishing their meal and taking the two elderly people back to their hotel, Sheng Zexi then escorted Gu Jianing back to Huaihua Village.

That's right, this guy took away that big red certificate that looked like a marriage certificate.

"I'll keep this safe."

Gu Jianing said she had no objection; they were already married, so it didn't matter who kept the item.

Sheng Zexi gazed at Gu Jianing, and couldn't help but reach out and gently tuck her hair behind her ear. As if sighing, he said, "Ningning, do you know, I once thought I would grow old alone."

Gu Jianing remained silent, inexplicably sensing that Sheng Zexi seemed somewhat melancholic at that moment.

Like a hedgehog that has always been prickly, pricking wherever it goes, and always wary of everyone.

The silly hedgehog doesn't realize that when it raises its sharp quills to prick others, it also hurts itself.

In fact, Gu Jianing could sense that Sheng Zexi had always been very wary.

But as if by sheer coincidence, she walked right into the heart of this hedgehog, and once inside, she took root.

Even in her past life, when she realized that she was Sheng Zexi's white moonlight, she wondered what she had done to deserve it and what charm she possessed.

She was beautiful and pretty, but Gu Jianing knew that these weren't the things Sheng Zexi valued most.

At this moment, the hedgehog that had been showing sadness in front of her seemed to have put away its sharp quills and revealed its soft belly, yearning for her touch.

A gentle breeze carried the man's magnetic yet earnest voice, "Until now, with you, I realize that I can have a companion, and that the future is promising."
