"Preparations for a wedding can be quite elaborate, we might as well go straight to registering for our marriage license."
Lin Anran proposed a neater solution.
Gu Beichen's lips curl into a charming smile, his tone gentle, "If so, why not do it today? Have you brought your identification?"
Lin Anran nodded, acquiescing to his suggestion.
After all, marriage was a necessary step, and she was prepared already, with all her documents in her bag.
Gu Beichen saw her nod, a flash of satisfaction crossing his eyes as he reached out and took her hand, "Then we should set out now." Next, he turned to Xiang Nan, who was still dumbfounded, "Prepare the car for us, park it at the entrance."
Chu Tianmo and Xiang Nan were so shocked they couldn't close their mouths.
They were getting their marriage certificate already???
Xiang Nan suddenly remembered, in half an hour, there was a key meeting waiting for Gu Beichen.
He hesitated, cautiously said, "Boss Gu, there's an important meeting coming up..."
Before he could finish, he felt Gu Beichen's icy gaze. With a poker face, Gu Beichen was obviously discontent at Xiang Nan's reminder.
To Gu Beichen, nothing was more important than meeting his future wife.
"I'll prepare the car right away."
Xiang Nan felt a chill, promptly leaving the office.
Chu Tianmo, who had witnessed the whole event, exclaimed, "Is this all real??"
Having lived so long, he really had bumped into anything weird.
In the company's lobby, Gu Beichen and Lin Anran exited the elevator together, their handholding appearance shocked the receptionists and other employees alike.
Xiao Qian was puzzled, pulling Xiao Pan at the side, "What happened? Has the fairy left? How did she come out of the elevator?"
Even more surprising was the gentle way Gu Beichen was holding her hand.
Xiao Pan was equally clueless and shook his head, "I don't know either, but look at them together, such an attractive couple! I'm all in for this pairing!"
Lin Anran noticed the curious look from the receptionists. She went over and thanked them with a smile, "Thank you both for your assistance earlier."
Gu Beichen noticed the woman's facial expressions and glanced at the receptionists.
He seemed to be in a good mood when he said, "When my wife comes to the company in the future, you can directly let her come up to find me."
"You both did well today. Your bonus for this month will be doubled."
He finished speaking, took the woman's hand, and walked towards the Maybach parked outside.
Lin Anran took a brief look at the man, thinking to herself: He really has a knack for calling me his wife!
Since they were about to become a legally wedded couple, she no longer felt conflicted about this title.
The receptionists were dumbstruck.
So, this beautiful woman is the CEO's wife?
Our CEO is married?
They were astounded by this revelation, but on the thought of getting a doubled bonus, they couldn't help but start laughing, happiness came so abruptly!
The other employees in the hall were also stunned. What did they just hear?
This is big news! Soon, the news that their CEO was married began to spread throughout the company. At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
A Maybach pulls over slowly.
Gu Beichen steps out of the car, naturally taking Lin Anran's hand as they walk into the Civil Affairs Bureau together.
His big hand tightly holds hers. Lin Anran looks at his natural action and finds it a bit amusing.
This man was so presumptuous.
They only met for the first time today!
Holding hands inside the company is one thing. But now, even when there's no one around, he was still holding hers.
She thought for a moment and decided to go along with it.
After all, they were about to get their marriage certificates.
Lin Anran glances at the man's hand, his fingers are long and good-looking.
His hand is also warm. When their skin touches, she feels a strange sensation rising from the bottom of her heart.
Xiang Nan, watching his boss's behavior, suppresses a smile. Is this still the same Mr. Gu who always maintains his distance from women? It seems he knows how to be considerate!
When the two of them walk in, the staff can't help but be stunned.
What a handsome man and a beautiful woman!
In no time, the two have an additional marriage certificate in their hands.
Lin Anran stared at the marriage certificate in her hand, feeling somewhat surreal.
She was married, and it was even a lightning marriage!
She gazed at the marriage certificate for a few seconds, then stopped thinking too much about it.
Her husband was handsome and rich. She had struck gold!
Gu Beichen carefully took the marriage certificate from her hand, comparing it with his own as he meticulously placed them side by side.
A somewhat hard to notice smile appeared on his face.
"Miss Lin, please take care of me in the future. Let me keep this."
Lin Anran curiously looked at him, "Why? Isn't it supposed to be each person keeps their own?"
"One place for storage, easier management."
Gu Beichen replied firmly. Lin Anran lightly smiled, not arguing over it.
It's just a small matter, let him arrange as he wishes.
As soon as Xiang Nan saw them appear together, he immediately approached, his face expressing joy as he said, "Congratulations Mr. Gu, Happy marriage! May you have a child soon!"
Gu Beichen smiled slightly, his gaze revealing a hint of satisfaction, "Double your bonus this month."
Gu Beichen turned to Lin Anran and asked softly, "Mrs. Lin, where do you live? Should I send you home first, or should we directly go to my place?"
Upon hearing this appellation, Lin Anran couldn't help but blush.
She found the man's enthusiasm somewhat surprising, taking into account that she had just arrived there.
"I'm from the countryside, recently residing in Wangguo City, all of my luggage is there."
Previously, Jiang Haosen helped er to purchase an apartment in Wangguo City, and she would stay there occasionally when she visited.
Upon hearing this, Gu Beichen was slightly taken aback, then looked earnestly into Lin Anran's eyes and quietly said, "Give me your phone."
Lin Anran, a bit puzzled, took out her phone from her bag and handed it to him.
After receiving the phone, Gu Beichen quickly typed in a number and added himself on WeChat.
"This is my contact information. I will take you there first, and then I will come to pick you up after work in the afternoon."
Lin Anran reveled in the low and charming voice of the man, and a warm current welled inside her.
"Alright." Lin Anran nodded gently.
