Chapter 981: Nothing To Be Afraid Of
Imperial City.Zhang Xiuying, Han Cihui, and Jia Qiulian arrived there right in the morning. Zhang Xiuying looked at the time and quickly said to Han Cihui, "When you get home, don\'t go to rest first. Get the household register and then go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get your marriage certificate."
Han Cihui didn\'t feel tired at all after sitting on the plane for so long. On the contrary, he was full of energy.
So did Jia Qiulian. She had been sleeping on the plane for a long time. Now that her feet were on the ground, she felt very energetic. The jet lag didn\'t matter to her.
Jia Qiulian\'s household register and identity card were with her. Han Cihui returned home and took his own household register, and drove toward the Civil Affairs Bureau with Jia Qiulian.
On the way there, Jia Qiulian looked at Han Cihui and then looked at the scenery outside the window as if she had something to say.
When Han Cihui saw this, he smiled. "Don\'t be nervous. Although I\'ve heard that some people have phobias before the wedding, you don\'t have to be afraid. And we\'re almost there. You can\'t go back on your promise."
"I\'m not going back on my promises!" Jia Qiulian pouted and leaned back in her seat. "Now that Auntie isn\'t here, let me ask you something. Is it true that your father won\'t let us be together?"
At this point, Han Cihui no longer needed to lie to her. He truthfully said, "Yes."
Jia Qiulian shook her head. "Since he disagreed, then why are you insisting on doing this? Aren\'t you afraid that he might be unhappy and angry with you?"
"Are you afraid?" Han Cihui looked at the road in front of him and smiled. "Don\'t worry," he said. "My mother will take care of everything. My father is a pedantic person. He\'s very stubborn, and his words always make no sense. Even if I tell him, he will still be against it. Don\'t talk about this anymore. In our family, his words never matter."
"Han Cihui!" Jia Qiulian suddenly turned to him and said seriously, "He\'s your father! Even if you don\'t agree with what he said, you still have to respect him!"
Hearing something wrong in Jia Qiulian\'s tone, Han Cihui immediately stopped the car at the side of the road. Then he turned around and looked at her.
Their eyes met.
Han Cihui saw the disappointment in her eyes.
He explained, "It\'s not that I don\'t respect him. What he did really hurt people. It\'s too late for me to tell you everything now. I\'ll just tell you this. Because of what he did to my mother, my grandfather disowned him from the Han Family. If it weren\'t for the fact that he truly regretted his actions, he wouldn\'t be able to see us now!"
Seeing that Jia Qiulian was still angry, Han Cihui sighed. He raised his hand and gently touched her face. "Don\'t worry. I still don\'t forget my filial piety. I love my father very much."
Jia Qiulian didn\'t avoid it. She let Han Cihui\'s hand gently touch her face.
After spending two months with him, she had some understanding of himself.
At least he was an upright person and not bad.
Moreover, he was also very protective of his own family.
While they were on set, when Liang Jiahao had to go home for some unknown reason; at that time, Han Cihui was like a knight guarding Qin Yu\'s side.
If it weren\'t for him, Arthur would have attacked Qin Yu long ago. Therefore, Jia Qiulian felt that Han Cihui still cared about his family.
But why did he have such a conflict with his biological father?
He was not ready to tell him about their marriage. There must be something that Han Cihui didn\'t tell her.
Jia Qiulian smiled and grabbed Han Cihui\'s hand that touched her face. She said softly, "Yes, I know. But Han Cihui, I want our marriage to be blessed. Although I don\'t want to be blessed by everyone in the world, I hope to be blessed by your family."
She pulled his hand down and held it tightly in her palm. Her eyes were as gentle as the big sister next door. "He is your father. After we are married, we have to face him. If we make this thing stiff now, then ... it will be difficult for us to get along with him in the future. Once I entered your Han Family\'s door, I will face your father every day."
Han Cihui wanted to say that they would move out after they got married so they wouldn\'t have to face Han Xiwang every day.
But he didn\'t say it because he knew that what Jia Qiulian said was not that simple.
All she wanted was... the approval of his parents.
Han Cihui shook his head and held Jia Qiulian\'s hand in his palm. For some reason, he suddenly smiled. He smiled helplessly.
"Lianlian, my father is not that simple. He is against this marriage, not because you aren\'t good, but because he cares more about your background, and that\'s something you don\'t have. I can guarantee you now. If you come with me and take the certificate now, after we\'re married, I can protect you. Even if it is against my father. He won\'t be able to hurt you in the slightest."
Jia Qiulian frowned and pouted unhappily. "So what you meant is that if I don\'t get the certificate with you now and go to your father\'s place, you won\'t be able to protect me?"
Han Cihui laughed and really wanted to knock Jia Qiulian\'s forehead.
"Why can\'t I protect you? Even without a marriage certificate, I will still protect you. If I can\'t protect you, there\'s always my mother. If my mother can\'t protect you, there\'s still grandfather, grandmother, and the Han Family members. How could they let my father bully you?"
Jia Qiulian smiled cheerfully. "Isn\'t that enough? Since you can protect me, why should I still be afraid of your father? He\'s not a beast. I have faith in him. I know he is a reasonable person."
"You still don\'t understand." Han Cihui shook his head with a smile. "He\'s unreasonable. And he\'s the kind of person who makes no sense at all."
"Then I\'m not afraid!" Jia Qiulian patted Han Cihui\'s hand. "Just protect me."
Han Cihui raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a smile. "So... now... us?"
"Let\'s go home." Jia Qiulian turned around and sat in the passenger seat. "We\'ll wait for your father."
The word "home" made Han Cihui feel very comfortable.
Jia Qiulian had no home in this country, and now that she considered his home as her own, it meant that she really wanted to marry him.
"Alright." Han Cihui gripped the steering wheel with both hands, "Let\'s go home."
• • • •
Zhang Xiuying sat in the living room feeling uneasy. She looked at the time and then at her phone.
She was waiting for Han Cihui\'s call.
She knew that after Han Cihui and Jia Qiulian received their certificates, the first person they would contact to report the good news was going to be her.
But Zhang Xiuying waited and waited... After waiting for a long time, she actually waited for them to go home just like that.
She stood up restlessly and ran towards them. She held Han Cihui\'s hand and nervously asked, "Hui, where is the proof? Take it out quickly and show it to me!"
Han Cihui did not answer her. Instead, he pulled her hand back into the living room. Then he pushed her to the sofa and sat down. After he and Jia Qiulian sat down separately, Han Cihui said, "Mom, we decided not to get the certificate."
"Decided not to get the certificate?" Zhang Xiuying looked at Jia Qiulian with a strange look. "Why? Could it be... Jia Qiulian doesn\'t want to marry you?"
