No marriage certificate…
No meeting either…
Chi Enen thought it over and felt that none of these were an issue, considering she wasn’t really getting married to a man but just doing it to register her child for a resident permit.
The question she cared most about was, “A lack of a marriage certificate won’t affect registering Baby Chi, will it?”
Lin Anxin’s eyes widened as she looked at her, “Enen, are you really planning to marry a man you don’t even recognize and have never met?”
“I have no other choice, Baby Chi will soon be coming back from overseas. As soon as he returns, we’ll have to talk about schooling. How can he attend school without a resident permit?”
Lin Anxin was at a loss for words, “But…”
Chi Enen calmly persuaded her, “Haven’t you said your elder uncle is very reliable? If he says he won’t cheat me, then he probably won’t. Besides, you and 1 are good friends, he wouldn’t harm me out of consideration for you.”
Lin Anxin frowned and pondered for a moment, “My elder uncle is indeed a good person. Although he refuses to take me to meet that man, he emphasized repeatedly that the other party’s family background is clean and he’s not the kind of lecherous old man who clings on and won’t let go. How about this, I’ll ask him again for you.”
“Enen, have you really thought this through? Do you really want to just find any man to marry and then divorce for the sake of registering Baby Chi? A woman’s value decreases once she’s been divorced.”
“I’ve thought it through.”
She hadn’t planned on getting married in the first place; it would be good enough as long as she could properly register for Baby Chi.
“As long as you’ve thought it through. Right, hand me your household register, If there’s no issue, 1 will let my elder uncle help you with it, since he has connections at the Civil Affairs Bureau.”
“Okay.”
Chi Enen took out the household register from the drawer and handed it to her.
After Lin Anxin safely put it away, she chatted with her for a bit longer, and only left after they had dinner.
Chi Enen tidied up the house, took a bath, and after lying on the bed, she called Baby Chi.
“Hello, Baby.”
“Woman, you still remember to call me, I thought you had forgotten about me.”
This crisp little voice, slightly plaintive, was indeed her Baby Chi.
But judging by this little firecracker’s tone, he was probably angry.
“How could I?” Chi Enen quickly proved her innocence, “How could Mommy possibly forget my Baby?”
Baby Chi, nicknamed Baby Chi, real name Chi Jingchen paused and then asked, “When are you coming to pick me up?”
“Soon.”
“How soon is soon?” Clearly, such a vague answer could not deceive him. He pursed his small lips, a pity that the sweet, milky voice lacked any threat.
Chi Enen, thinking of the ‘marriage certificate’ that soon would be in order, pondered for a moment and said, “Mommy has run into some trouble here, I’ll come get you once it’s sorted out.”
“Really?”
Chi Enen instantly felt sweetness in her heart, “Really.”
“You have to listen to Grandma Panda and be good; Mommy will come get you once she’s done here, got it?”
“I’ll be good, you don’t have to worry about me.” Baby Chi paused, as if becoming shy for a moment, quickly added, “1 miss you, Chi Enen.”
Ai, whose baby is this, it’s utterly heart-melting.
“I miss you too, Baby Chi.”
The voice on the other end of the phone seemed to perk up, brimming with joy, “You should rest early, I’ll be waiting for you- Bye.”
“Beep beep beep…” Chi Enen hadn’t gotten a chance to say goodbye, and he had already hung up.
Chi Enen smiled, whispering “Goodnight,” towards the phone that was now emitting a busy tone.
After putting away the mobile phone, she washed up, and seeing that it was getting late, she fell into a deep sleep….
