- Chapter 14 - No Need to Be Shy
When the process reached the photo session, Bai Youxi still felt unbelievable about the fact that she was about to marry Shen Jiangxu.
She followed Shen Jiangxu in a daze, doing whatever she was told. Because of Shen Jiangxu’s pre-exit instruction, “Look happy,” she was trying hard to maintain a big smile.
This made her look a bit goofy, but since all the young couples coming to the marriage registration office had similar expressions, she didn’t stand out at all.
Even the usually aloof Shen Jiangxu softened her features, elegantly taking different documents from the staff.
The nation strongly encourages marriages between Alphas and Omegas and also provides extra protection for the more vulnerable Omegas. Although the procedure has been continuously simplified, only requiring both parties to bring their identification documents for registration, the number of documents requiring signatures and confirmation has increased significantly.
Fortunately, there weren’t many people at this time, and the tedious process proceeded quickly.
Standing in front of the red background wall facing the camera, Bai Youxi turned her head and glanced at Shen Jiangxu.
Perhaps sensing her gaze, Shen Jiangxu leaned slightly closer towards her.
The distance between the two narrowed considerably, and the photographer over there loudly said, “That’s right, look at the camera. Alpha, move a little closer too.”
Bai Youxi snapped back to attention, quickly looked at the lens, felt inexplicably awkward for a moment, then cautiously moved a little towards Shen Jiangxu’s direction. After a moment of hesitation, she mimicked Shen Jiangxu and leaned her head slightly closer.
Shen Jiangxu’s low voice fell into her ear, “Smile.”
Bai Youxi was momentarily stunned, looking at the dark camera lens, then suddenly displayed the most genuine, bright smile full of happiness.
Click..
Soon, they held the big red marriage certificates in their hands.
Bai Youxi quickly flipped it open, looking at their closely aligned names and their closely positioned photo. Her smile instantly became even brighter, practically disappearing her eyes.
In the photo, Shen Jiangxu’s lips curved into a slight smile. The small size couldn’t hide her brilliance; she was still so beautiful that one couldn’t help but sigh in admiration.
Shen Jiangxu glanced at her, then looked at their perfectly matched outfits in the photo, and said faintly, “Doesn’t it suit us well?”
Bai Youxi was clearly immersed and didn’t hear clearly, slightly tilting her ear towards Shen Jiangxu. “Hm?”
Shen Jiangxu had already heard the answer from her reaction, and her long lashes lifted gracefully.
But Bai Youxi’s gaze fell into them, carrying an unspeakable joy and excitement, “You look so beautiful when you smile.”
Something in her cool gray eyes stilled for a moment. Shen Jiangxu turned her gaze forward. “There’s still the oath.”
Bai Youxi happily closed the marriage certificate, holding the little booklet in her hands as she followed along.
When they stood on the oath platform, solemnly reciting the vow following the staff’s guidance, the smile on Bai Youxi’s face gradually faded into a serious expression. Subconsciously, she reached out and held Shen Jiangxu’s hand.
That hand was much smaller than hers, the slender knuckles felt slightly cool. After a sudden pause, it turned over and grasped her hand back.
They looked compatible, loving, and happy, frozen in the commemorative photo.
However, once they returned to the car and the proof of happiness was placed alongside the contractual agreement signed by both parties, this happiness began to cool.
The luxury sports car quickly drove out of the civil affairs bureau area. Bai Youxi took several deep breaths, then looked at Shen Jiangxu with a calmness that still couldn’t mask her genuine happiness. “Where are we going next?”
“The hospital.”
Bai Youxi blinked.
Shen Jiangxu glanced at her in her peripheral vision, raised a hand, and tapped her own earlobe. “It’s time for a re-check.”
Bai Youxi followed suit, touching her earlobe, where the clearly insufficient regulator ring was located.
In other words, a week had passed.
Or rather, it had only been a week.
In such a short time, she and Shen Jiangxu were actually married?
Bai Youxi could hardly believe it.
Not until the doctor finished the check-up and surprisingly said that her condition was much better, then asked her what had happened.
Bai Youxi secretly glanced at Shen Jiangxu. Shen Jiangxu caught her gaze and looked at her with very light colored eyes.
Bai Youxi’s face flushed instantly, and she stammered in explanation, “Well, she… she took very good care of me.”
The doctor realized, then turned to Shen Jiangxu, “Ms. Shen, what is your grade? Are you under a lot of pressure?”
Shen Jiangxu merely said, “It’s alright.”
The doctor didn’t press for details, “Don’t overexert yourself. After all, Ms. Bai herself is an S-grade, and it’s no joke when her pheromones are secreted excessively due to loss of control.”
Shen Jiangxu was deeply empathetic and nodded, “Okay.”
In the car, leaving the hospital, Shen Jiangxu suddenly said, “I am your wife now.”
Bai Youxi paused, then looked up at Shen Jiangxu.
Shen Jiangxu’s profile was shrouded in the almost vanished sunset. “No need to be shy.”
The fingers resting on her lap curled. With red ears, Bai Youxi nodded emphatically.
On the way back, Shen Jiangxu first took her to buy a phone and get a SIM card.
As soon as her WeChat, which had been disconnected for over ten days, logged in, a red dot instantly showed 99+ messages. A string of contacts popped up one after another, adorned with red dots indicating different numbers of messages.
Bai Youxi had never felt so important, especially after seeing messages from distant relatives, who she barely contacted, urging her to be obedient and return home.
Bai Youxi immediately scrolled to the bottom of her contacts, lowered her head, and started clearing the messages from the last red dot, without even looking.
After clearing all the messages from the less familiar contacts, Bai Youxi slowed down and read the messages from those closer to her one by one.
Just as she finished reading all the red dots, and before she could return, her top friend named [Song Jian] sent her a long string of messages again.
The speed was so fast that Bai Youxi didn’t even have time to react and was forced to read the messages completely.
【Song Jian: If you don’t reply, Shu Pan is going to call the police】
【Song Jian: I’ll go before her】
【Song Jian: Even if you went to the uninhabited area to clear your head, you should be back by now】
【Song Jian: Reply quickly!!!】
Song Jian sent a string of similar messages every day. After reading the previous ones, Bai Youxi felt no surprise reading this part.
Okay, she still felt guilty.
When she ran away, Song Jian and Xu Shupan didn’t know what had happened, and she had only told them she was going out to clear her head, without even mentioning her destination.
From the messages they sent, they became aware of the whole situation the day after she arrived in Nancheng. They had been comforting her and trying to find out where she was.
But at that time, she was already like a beggar and couldn’t be reached.
So much had happened during this time that she didn’t know how to start explaining.
As Bai Youxi hesitated about how to reply, she looked up and realized they had already parked in the underground garage. Shen Jiangxu sat quietly beside her, having waited for her for quite some time.
“I’m sorry, you waited for me.”
Bai Youxi quickly unbuckled her seatbelt, ready to get out of the car. Shen Jiangxu, however, was not in a hurry at all, pressing on her seatbelt buckle. Her voice was faint, “You can finish replying first.”
Bai Youxi paused, but still pushed the car door open.
“No, Niannian must be anxious.”
