Mrs. Chen turned her face away, her chest still heaving violently. It was clear she was paying no attention to Mr. Chen's words.
She glared at Chen Zhengnian, her eyes filled with bitter disappointment.
"Wear me down? I could wait until my hair turns white and I still wouldn't give in! If you dare to secretly get your marriage license, I'll lock the household registration book in the safe. Let's see you get married then!"
Chen Zhengnian took a deep breath, suppressing the bitter ache in his heart.
He knew his mother's temper. Once she got stubborn, ten bulls couldn't pull her back. But this time, he had no intention of backing down.
"Mom, if you really don't want to give us the household registration book, we can go to the police station and get a proof of residence certificate. Legally, no one can stop us from getting married."
"I love Xinxin, and we understand each other completely. I believe that you live your own life, and it has nothing to do with social standing."
