Huo Zhuxiu’s injuries were rather serious. The driver dared not touch him and could only take out his phone to call an ambulance.
Huo Zhuxiu sensed Lin Shanchu’s gaze and looked at her warily.
The two of them looked at each other through the windshield, barely able to see each other clearly.
Lin Shanchu only had two eyes exposed. The corners of her eyes were curved into a provocative arc.
After that, Lin Shanchu started the car and drove away.
Although Huo Zhuxiu did not get a good look at Lin Shanchu’s face, he could tell that the car belonged to Huo Chaosheng. With that provocative look in her
eyes, he had a vague guess in his mind.
After the driver called the ambulance, he was about to call the police. However,
Huo Zhuxiu stopped him. “Don’t call the police.”
“Got it.” Although the driver was puzzled, he did not dare to ask further questions.
Lin Shanchu drove the car to a deserted place and took out the first aid kit that she had prepared beforehand to treat her wound.
The wound was located in the hair above the hairline and the position was a little tricky, but fortunately, the wound was not deep and the bleeding stopped quickly.
Lin Shanchu briefly treated the wound and looked at herself in the mirror. After making sure that it was not easily noticed, she ruffled her hair to cover the wound.
Then, she took out the makeup bag and touched up her makeup before abandoning the car and leaving.
It was 8:42 a.m.
There was plenty of time for her to arrive at the Civil Affairs Bureau at the appointed time.
Lin Shanchu hailed a taxi.
“Sir, go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.”
Lin Shanchu was in a good mood and started humming after getting into the taxi.
Finally, she managed to collect the debt that Huo Zhuxiu owed her before the new year.
“Are you going to get married?” the driver asked with a smile while looking at her.
“Yes, I am,” Lin Shanchu replied casually.
“It seems like you’re getting along well with your marriage partner.
Congratulations.”
“Thank you.”
Lin Shanchu smiled and thanked him.
When the taxi stopped, Lin Shanchu rolled down the window and pointed at Huo Xunzhou, who was standing at the door, and said, “Sir, that’s my boyfriend.”
“He is really good-looking. You two are a match made in heaven!” The smile on Lin Shanchu’s face grew even more radiant.
She glanced at the meter.
When she scanned the code to pay the fee, she entered an extra zero.
After she got out of the taxi, she heard the driver call her from behind, “Missy, did you key the wrong amount?”
“I didn’t.” Lin Shanchu turned around and said, “Sir, may your business flourish.”
Today was a good day.
She should share her good mood with others.
The days were short and the nights were long in winter. In the early morning, a man in a suit stood at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. His handsome eyes were so gentle that they looked unreal.
Lin Shanchu started running.
“Huo Xunzhou!”
An impatient mood overwhelmed her like a flood with a hint of strange panic.
Lin Shanchu ran faster and faster.
She saw Huo Xunzhou frown and say something.
The two of them were quite far apart. She could not hear him clearly, but she could vaguely tell that he mouthed the words, “Shanshan, slow down.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out for his phone.
It was unknown who called him, but he looked serious when he answered the phone.
When Lin Shanchu ran up to him, he just hung up the phone.
Huo Xunzhou smiled when he saw her.
He extended his hand towards Lin Shanchu and said, “Let’s go in.” “Alright.” Lin Shanchu happily placed her hand in his.
The two of them turned around and walked into the Civil Affairs Bureau together.
However, Huo Xunzhou suddenly stopped after taking two steps.
Lin Shanchu turned around and saw Huo Xunzhou frowning with an unusually grave expression.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m fine,” Huo Xunzhou said slowly after a few seconds.
The two of them walked over to line up. Lin Shanchu turned to look at Huo Xunzhou from time to time.
She felt that Huo Xunzhou was acting a little strange.
Was it because of the phone call just now?
Huo Zhuxiu was a big shot in the business world, and he would be on the news if there was any commotion.
Even though Lin Shanchu had not checked online, she knew that Huo Zhuxiu’s car accident must have been on the news.
Even if someone had told him that Huo Zhuxiu had met with a car accident when Huo Xunzhou answered the call, he would not have reacted so strongly given his relationship with Huo Zhuxiu.
Could it be that he had already guessed that she was the one who drove into Huo Zhuxiu?
Lin Shanchu was a little flustered.
Huo Xunzhou usually went along with her in everything, but when it came to matters of principle, he usually would not back down.
Especially when it was a matter of life and death.
Logically speaking, Huo Xunzhou would definitely be furious if he knew that she had driven into Huo Zhuxiu.
At this moment, Huo Xunzhou did not look angry at all. Instead, there was a hint of doubt.
“I’m a little thirsty,” Lin Shanchu said tentatively.
There was a water dispenser in the hall.
Huo Xunzhou turned around to pour her some water. After she finished drinking, he took the disposable paper cup from her hand and threw it into the trash can.
He was gentle and patient as usual.
Obviously, he still did not know that she had driven into Huo Zhuxiu.
In that case, what was the problem?
Lin Shanchu pursed her lips and pondered for a moment. Then, she took out her phone and turned it off in front of Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou looked down at her with a questioning gaze.
Lin Shanchu reached into his pocket and took out his phone, turning it off.
“In case someone disturb us.”
Both of them had their phones turned off. At least, he would not know that she had driven into Huo Zhuxiu before they got their marriage certificate.
Forget it, getting married to him came first.
Even if he were to get angry later, he would not be so heartless as to divorce her, right?
“What if I miss an important call?” Huo Xunzhou’s eyes were full of indulgence.
“What phone call is more important than me?” Lin Shanchu blinked at him.
Huo Xunzhou made a fist and placed it against his lips. After suppressing his smile, he quickly lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “No.”
No phone call was more important than her.
Lin Shanchu raised her chin and smiled in satisfaction.
Finally, it was their turn.
Everything went smoothly from the process of taking photos to filling in the form.
Lin Shanchu signed her name without hesitation.
When she turned to look at Huo Xunzhou, she realized that he was holding a pen and had not signed his name yet.
Lin Shanchu was stunned. She turned sideways and looked up, only to see his face full of struggle and hesitation.
“Huo Xunzhou?” she called his name softly, not trying to urge him. Instead, she was puzzled.
She never thought that she would see a look of struggle and hesitation on Huo Xunzhou’s face.
Furthermore, it happened when he was registering his marriage with her.
She knew better than anyone that Huo Xunzhou loved her wholeheartedly.
She once used Huo Xunzhou’s favoritism to provoke him without restraint.
Huo Xunzhou slowly turned his head to look at her with complex emotions surging in his deep eyes.
“I don’t think we’re suitable for each other.”
It was a voice that Lin Shanchu had heard countless times.
She took a few seconds to confirm that Huo Xunzhou had said those words himself.. Then she asked him calmly, “Do you know what you’re saying?”
