"By the way, have you got your marriage certificate yet?" Qin Tan asked.
Qin Xiao replied, "We'll get it right after the wedding."
Qin Tan said, "Hasn't the wedding ended yet? I thought it was over.
Just go get it done!"
"Ah...?"
Xiao Li was stunned.
They had just started the toasts...
Qin Xiao and Xiao Li's wedding ended just like that with a word from Qin Tan.
Outside the civil affairs bureau, Xiao Li and Qin Xiao each held a red booklet. Looking at the marriage certificate in her hand, Xiao Li turned to Qin Xiao, "We're officially certified now."
After saying that, Xiao Li gave a sweet smile.
Waiting by the car, Qin Tan saw them co out and imdiately lit up at the sight of their marriage certificates. Yes... they're officially settled now.
Knowing his brother well, as long as the certificate is obtained, Qin Tan knew that it wouldn't be invalidated.
Qin Xiao brought Xiao Li over to the car, and Qin Tan said with a grin, "Sister-in-law, I've already sent Father back, and I have to rush back to B City. Your sister-in-law couldn't co this ti due to her late pregnancy, but next ti let Qin Xiao bring you to B City to have so fun."
Xiao Li nodded, "Alright, big brother."
Qin Tan patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder, "I'm off now; you two can start your romantic honeymoon."
After saying that, Qin Tan left. After he left, Qin Xiao finally said, "Let's go too!"
Xiao Li glanced over, "Where are we going?"
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "Ho."
They got in the car, heading toward the suburbs until they stopped in front of a luxurious villa.
As soon as the car arrived at the villa gates, they opened. After parking the car, Qin Xiao got out and led Xiao Li into the villa.
The villa door opened, and a woman stood behind it, "Second Master, Second Young Mistress, you've returned."
Qin Xiao nodded and turned to introduce the woman to Xiao Li, "This is Aunt Wu; she's been with our family for twenty or thirty years and is a senior mber here."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Li smiled and nodded at Aunt Wu. She was quite familiar with Aunt Wu as well because in her previous life when she lived with the Qin Family, Aunt Wu took care of her daily life.
As Qin Xiao led Xiao Li into the villa, he said, "I only got the news last night, so there wasn't enough ti to renovate. I just had soone do so simple arrangents. We'll remodel when we have more ti in the future..."
Walking along, Xiao Li looked around. Her surroundings were no different from her previous life, a familiar feeling rose from deep within her.
Finally, she had moved back in. This ti, she was not returning with a broken body; she was determined that every day she spent here from now on would be happy and joyful.
Xiao Li turned to Qin Xiao and said, "No need to remodel; it's perfect as it is. I really like it..."
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "If you like it, then we won't remodel. We'll go with your choice."
They sat in front of the sofa, and Aunt Wu brought out fruits and snacks for Xiao Li.
Xiao Li was actually a bit hungry. Just as the banquet started, they were rushed to get their certificate. In order to look nice in the wedding dress, she barely ate anything in the morning.
Picking up a snack, Xiao Li took small bites, and once she finished eating, Qin Xiao asked, "Do you have any thoughts about the honeymoon?"
Xiao Li hesitated a little, then said, "Can we postpone the trip? Since Dad is ill, I want to spend more ti with him."
"You already know about Dad being sick."
Xiao Li nodded, "I just found out. Did you know, too?"
Qin Xiao nodded, "I just found out last night..."
Xiao Li asked, "Do you know how serious Dad's illness is?
I only know he's sick, but he didn't tell , so I'm not sure how severe it is."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao took Xiao Li upstairs. In the bedside drawer of the master bedroom, there was a folder. Qin Xiao took it out and handed it to Xiao Li.
Xiao Li took the docunt, and it turned out to be a dical report with detailed examination results...
As Xiao Li looked at the report, Qin Xiao explained from the side, "Dad rushed the marriage arrangent last night. I suspected sothing was up, so I had soone check Dad's situation. It turned out that Dad had not been feeling well last month and went to the hospital for a checkup.
This hospital happens to be a private one under the Qin Family, so I pulled Dad's dical records."
Xiao Li nodded, understanding that having a private hospital wouldn't be unusual for the Qin Family.
Xiao Li read the docunts page by page, and when she saw the words "late-stage stomach cancer," she trembled, and all the docunts fell from her hands.
Seeing this, Qin Xiao embraced her, "Don't be afraid; I've already contacted all the top experts in this field both dostically and internationally. There's still hope."
Xiao Li lay in Qin Xiao's arms, tears flowing continuously. As a dical student, she knew all too well how grim a late-stage stomach cancer diagnosis could be, especially after it had tastasized.
When she had just returned, she had hoped there might be ways to prolong Xiao Zhennan's life. But seeing these reports, she knew the chances were slim...
That night, Xiao Li cried herself to sleep in Qin Xiao's embrace.
The next morning, her eyes were swollen like giant walnuts, but fortunately, she didn't have to go out today, so no one would see her.
Xiao Li had cried herself to sleep in Qin Xiao's arms, and in order for her to rest well, Qin Xiao had not moved the entire night, resulting in him being unable to move when Xiao Li woke up.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Li quickly helped to rub his arms, "Why didn't you just gently place on the pillow? How could you endure being crushed all night?"
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "I like holding you while I sleep; it's fine... I'll be okay in a bit."
Sure enough, after a while, Qin Xiao regained his movent. Actually, he hadn't been entirely immobile; he just wanted to play a little sympathy card.
Seeing that Qin Xiao was fine, Xiao Li got up to wash up. As she approached the bathroom, Xiao Li rembered she was still in her drinking toast dress from yesterday, no wonder she hadn't slept well.
"Qin Xiao, have my things been delivered? I want to change my clothes."
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "I'll ask Aunt Wu."
With that, he picked up the phone next to him and called through the internal line, "Aunt Wu, have the Second Young Mistress's clothes been delivered?"
"They've already been delivered, and they've all been neatly hung in the closet."
Qin Xiao hung up the phone and got up, leading Xiao Li to the closet.
The closet was right next to the master bedroom. The entire second floor, apart from the master bedroom and the closet, had no other rooms, so both the master bedroom and the closet were quite spacious...
Qin Xiao led Xiao Li into the closet, where one side was filled with n's suits, casual wear, and sports attire of all styles.
The other side hung ladies' clothes. So clothes, Xiao Li was quite familiar with as they were brought from the Xiao Family, but what she brought only took up less than a fifth of the space. The remaining four-fifths held new clothes with tags still on them, in all sorts of styles...
