An Exclusive love-Chapter 350 - How Dare You Marry Without Mom's Knowledge
“No, no, no!” Bear stopped her. “Mrs. Jiang, I’ve made myself so clear, why don’t you get it?”
Chen Chen nodded weakly. “I get it. You, stand aside! Your boss is definitely abnormal, and he is too dangerous.”
“No, I mean that Boss will not allow anyone to harm the persons who he cares about. He will definitely protect his comrades and relatives. Once someone hurts them, he will certainly make that person hardly wishes to live.”
“Is that what you mean?” Chen Chen sat down. “Didn’t you mean to scare me?”
“Of course not. Why did I scare you?” Bear rolled his eyes. “Well, come and see if Tuan Zi’s room is beautiful.”
Bear stayed till the afternoon, and left with satisfaction after going to pick Tuan Zi home.
“Mom, don’t you cook?” Tuan Zi sat on the sofa and watched the cartoon, and Chen Chen next to her laughed even harder.
Chen Chen was eating chips. “Are you hungry? Aren’t there snacks in kindergarten?”
“Mom, you have to cook for Dad!” Tuan Zi considered that it was necessary to educate Chen Chen. “Daddy must be so tired after a hard day of work. As a housewife, you should let your husband eat dinner immediately after his returning home.”
The chips in Chen Chen’s hand fell to the ground, and she only noticed the word housewife.
“I am a girl, not a housewife.”
“A married girl.” Tuan Zi said, “Bear said that you would register for the marriage with Dad tomorrow. So we will be a real family in the future. You can’t be as self-willed as before.”
Chen Chen held her head and felt embarrassed to be educated by a child who was less than five years old.
“Dad is back!” Tuan Zi ignored her feelings and rushed out when she heard the door open.
Jiang Rui caught the little girl rushing over with the supermarket shopping bag in his hand.
“Are you hungry? Dad is going to cook today.”
Tuan Zi kissed his face. “I’m not hungry! Dad, you work so hard.”
Chen Chen clenched her teeth at hearing that. The little girl had clearly told her that she was hungry.
Jiang Rui changed his clothes and went into the kitchen to cook dinner. Seeing Tuan Zi’s look, Chen Chen was forced to go to help him.
“Bear told me about Miss Bai.” Chen Chen asked, not knowing what else to say, “If she comes to attack me, can I strike her back?”
Jiang Rui, who was frying the fish, glanced at her. Chen Chen looked him in his eyes and thought he was angry.
“No? Forget it. I’ll endure that for the sake of Tuan Zi.”
Jiang Rui frowned. “I don’t know that you are able to fight.”
“What does he mean? Look down on me?”
Chen Chen glared at him. “I have learned taekwondo! I…”
“You can.”
“What?” She did not get it.
Jiang Rui covered the pot and said, “As long as someone dares to provoke you, just hit it. If you can’t get a win… I’m here.”
Chen Chen blushed, lowering her head and washing the vegetables.
This man must be disguising himself usually! He’s really annoying to say these misleading words from time to time!
“Stop washing.” Jiang Rui stood behind her.
Seeing that he was so considerate, Chen Chen washed the vegetables harder. “That’s okay. I am not tired.”
“You have washed the leaves off and what else can be fried?”
Considerate? Go to hell…
In the evening, Tuan Zi slept in her own princess room. Her bed was designed to look like Cinderella’s carriage, and the little girl liked it very much! Also, she called Bear to express her gratitude. Chen Chen was a little envious, and when she went out of the princess room she saw Jiang Rui walking to his room.
“We’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o’clock tomorrow morning.”
Chen Chen was surprised. “Who will send Tuan Zi to the Sinology Kindergarten?”
“I have asked a leave for her, so she will be with us tomorrow.” Jiang Rui closed the door, leaving Chen Chen standing embarrassedly. Going back to the room, Chen Chen lay on the bed and muttered, “Register with Civil Affairs Bureau together with Tuan Zi? Are you afraid that no one will know it’s a shotgun marriage?”
At this time, she did not know the tomorrow that would be tense originally would be tenser because of someone’s arrival…
The next morning, all three people were having breakfast when the doorbell rang.
Tuan Zi ran to open the door. Before Chen Chen had time to ask who it was, she had heard Tuan Zi shout.
“Uncle!”
“Oh, Tuan Zi still remembers me. Let me hug you!” A young voice came in. Chen Chen’s body went rigid. “He… he is your family?”
Jiang Rui laid down the bowl and said, “He’s my brother.”
“Hey!” Chen Chen turned to see a man who was almost as old as her. He held Tuan Zi in his arms, waving at her.
“Hi…” She moved stiffly.
Chengcheng came over and looked at her. “As I expected, the woman who could give birth to such a beautiful kid as Tuan Zi must be beautiful. Sister-in-law, nice to meet you. I am Ying Cheng!”
Ying? Chen Chen looked at Jiang Rui somewhat confusedly. “Your brother should have the same family name as you, shouldn’t he…”
“My family background is fairly complicated, and I will tell you that later if there’s any chance.” Seeing her doubt, Jiang Rui did not explain, and ended the topic with just one sentence. Then he looked at Chengcheng. “Mom said that you had left home a few days ago, but why do you arrive so late?”
Chengcheng laid down Tuan Zi and actively gave himself a bowl of porridge. “I took this opportunity to do something else!” He didn’t dare to look at Jiang Rui and gazed at Chen Chen. “Don’t hurry, I have a lot of free time, and I will tell you the history of our family!”
“Oh! Thank you…” Chen Chen put on a simper and suddenly understood. “Are you willing to stay here?”
Chengcheng answered naturally, “Yes, otherwise why am I here?”
“Great!” Immediately, Chen Chen gave him a deep-fried dough stick passionately. “OK! OK!” “After you come here, I don’t have to face such an abnormal person as your brother alone.”
Tuan Zi also clapped her hands and laughed. “Uncle will take me to the amusement park, right?”
“Of course!” Chengcheng promised, peeping at Jiang Rui. “Oh… brother, what do you think?”
Jiang Rui stood up and wore his coat. “You can stay here till the New Year.”
“Yes, sir!” Chengcheng made a military salute.
There was more than a month away from the Chinese New Year!
“So will uncle go to the wedding with us today?” Tuan Zi asked in a whisper.
Chengcheng curiously asked, “Who is going to get married?”
“Dad and mom!” Tuan Zi shouted.
“Puff…” Chengcheng spit out the deep-fried dough sticks. “Brother… you… you… how dare you marry without mom’s knowledge?”
Jiang Rui frowned. “You go into the room with Tuan Zi to change clothes.”
Chen Chen went away with Tuan Zi in her arms hurriedly, leaving the brothers communicating.
“Didn’t you say that you didn’t want to be involved with Tuan Zi’s mother?” Chengcheng wiped his mouth. “Tut tut, but my sister-in-law is a beautiful woman. It’s normal for you to eat your words.”
Jiang Rui looked at him. “I just want to give Tuan Zi an ordinary home.”
Chengcheng snorted. “What about my sister-in-law? Are you not afraid that she will fall in love with you?”
“She won’t.” Jiang Rui thought of Chen Chen’s IQ and support his forehead with his hand. “She is afraid of me.”
“What if you fall in love with her?” Chengcheng blinked. Just now, he saw his older brother pick up and eat the deep-fried dough stick which was bitten by Chen Chen and thrown back into the plate.
All of the men in the Ying family are neatniks, both in respect of persons and things.
Jiang Rui stood up. “I’ll ask her to give me another child.”
He did find out that he treated Chen Chen differently, but it had nothing to do with love. It could not even be considered as fondness… Jiang Rui was a very rational person. If that happened one day, Chen Chen could only belong to him.
However, he did not think that day would come. Xin Qing had exerted too much influence on him, and it was a shadow that touched his soul.
When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Bear had been already waiting for them there. Behind him stood Xiao Si and Scar. Scar saw that Tuan Zi also arrived, excitedly lifting her off the car and then keeping holding her in his arms.
“Hey! Chengcheng, when did you arrive?” They obviously knew Ying Cheng, and Bear even hugged him.
Chengcheng beat Bear on the broad shoulder. “I just arrived in the morning!”
Jiang Rui glanced at them. Even, Chen Chen could feel the chill in his eyes.
“Go to wash the bullets in the ammunition depot.”
Bear became upset, looking at Chen Chen for help.
“Why… why?” Chen Chen whispered.
Jiang Rui was about to go when hearing her question. He paused and said, “Reveal the military intelligence.”
Seeing the man going in, Chen Chen stared at Bear and asked, “What did you do?”
“He told me that you would register for marriage today.” Chengcheng said innocently.
“It turned out that in the morning, the surprise on your face was fake…” Chen Chen felt that he was indeed Jiang Rui’s younger brother, so good at pretending. However, Jiang Rui was far superior to them. How did he find out it? Besides, was their registering for marriage the military intelligence?
Chen Chen suddenly felt that she didn’t have to be upset because of Jiang Rui’s biting words to her, because he treated everyone in the same way, which made her feel balanced!
“I just practiced shooting yesterday, and wash them slowly!” Xiao Si gloated and ran away.
Jiang Rui stood at the door and said, “Hurry up.”
“Okay!” Chen Chen responded, trotting over to him.
Chengcheng put his arm over Bear’s shoulder. “Alas, I just knew that would happen. Take care!”
“How ungrateful you are!” Bear ran after him.
The whole process of registration was successful except at the time of taking pictures.
“Bride! Smile, please!” The photographer reminded Chen Chen. “It will be printed on the marriage certificate.”
Chen Chen grinned.
The photographer was shocked, saying: “Smile, don’t cry.”
“I am smiling!” Chen Chen said with dissatisfaction, and she was very nervous originally.
“… Then it’s okay if you don’t want to smile.” The photographer felt helpless and lowered his requirement.
Chen Chen closed her mouth.
The photographer added: “I’m taking your wedding photos now, and you are not on the battlefield. Bride, please don’t seem ready to go die, OK?”
Chengcheng and others squatted down with laughter. Tuan Zi ran to touch Chen Chen’s hand and said: “Mom, come on! Be brave!”
Finally, they finished photo-taking under Jiang Rui’s killing gaze. A thousand thoughts came to Chen Chen’s mind when she obtained the marriage certificate. She was already a married woman now! She opened the marriage certificate and saw the photo where he leaned his head against her head.
Jiang Rui was handsome and cool, while she was stern-faced. In a rage, she closed the certificate, and decided to throw it into the box after arriving home and not to look at it any more.
“To celebrate your marriage, let’s pig out!” Chengcheng proposed, “What do you want to eat, Tuan Zi?”
“The buffet with ice cream!” Tuan Zi said loudly, and it was the only feast in her eyes!
Jiang Rui picked her up. “Dad will take you to eat something else.”
“Will there be ice cream?”
“No.”
“What would you take her to eat if there was not ice cream?” Chen Chen was about to sneer at him when she heard Tuan Zi say, “Well, that’s okay. As long as I can eat with dad, I’ll be the happiest one!”
“Sister-in-law…” Chengcheng poked her. “If your IQ were about half of Tuan Zi’s, my brother would be fascinated by you early.”
Chen Chen was about to rage against him when she heard a sharp female voice.
“Jiang Rui! Are you married??”
