Chapter 242: Chapter 241: Getting the Marriage Certificate (3rd update)

"No, Auntie, that’s not what I mean."

Jin Yu hurriedly explained.

"Then what do you mean?" Yang Cuihua still wore a stern face. Her gaze flickered towards Xu Niannian, then she quickly cut Jin Yu off, "Oh, Xiao Jin, when did you get back?"

She pretended that she hadn’t just been talking to Jin Yu.

Jin Yu visibly hesitated, about to speak, but Yang Cuihua had already run over to hold onto Xu Niannian.

"Baby Nian, why did you come out? Quick, back to bed, don’t hurt your foot again."

Xu Niannian calmly watched her mother feigning ignorance and glanced sideways at Jin Yu standing behind Yang Cuihua. She spoke softly, "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

Yang Cuihua was startled, "Baby Nian..."

Not wanting her mother to worry, Xu Niannian patted her shoulder, "Don’t worry, Mom."

Yang Cuihua glared at Jin Yu. Knowing the mother-in-law had misunderstood, Jin Yu quickly explained, "Auntie, my status is special, getting married requires submitting a report and waiting for leadership approval. At the earliest, I can’t register the marriage for another five or six days. Rest assured, I do want to marry Niannian."

After saying this, Jin Yu followed Xu Niannian into the house.

Xu Niannian hopped ahead to the bed, and as Jin Yu closed the door, he embraced her and carried her onto the bed.

Xu Niannian pointed towards the stool in front of the bed, "Sit down first."

Jin Yu sat down as told.

Xu Niannian laughed at how solemn he looked, "Alright, no need to be nervous."

"How can I not be? Marriage is a serious business."

Xu Niannian choked, "What did my mom just say to you?"

Jin Yu, "Auntie said you agreed to register our marriage."

Xu Niannian, "..."

She knew it.

They had agreed to give her three days to think, but her mother went ahead and decided for her.

"I don’t want to get married so soon," Xu Niannian stated bluntly.

Hearing this, the spark in Jin Yu’s eyes dimmed, but he still respected her view, "...I’ll talk to Auntie."

As he was about to get up, Xu Niannian quickly grabbed him, "Hey, don’t rush, I haven’t finished speaking yet."

Jin Yu looked at her hopefully, his eyes brightening a bit.

Xu Niannian found it amusing.

"You know why I don’t want to marry so quickly. You should understand. We haven’t been together long, and my feelings for you might not be that deep..."

As she spoke, Xu Niannian glanced at Jin Yu and saw the light in his eyes dim with every word she said.

When she mentioned her feelings for him didn’t run deep, his head drooped even further, resembling a pitiable big dog.

Xu Niannian couldn’t help but tousle his ear.

Jin Yu grabbed her hand, preventing her from moving.

His dark eyes gazed at her intensely, filled with a determined sorrow.

"I can wait for you, until you’re ready... I’ll handle it with Auntie. You don’t need to feel pressured."

"That won’t be necessary," Xu Niannian said with a smile. "If you tell her, my mom might really chop you up, you unfaithful man."

Jin Yu looked at her, raising an eyebrow, "Then what do we do?"

"Register our marriage?"

"..."

Jin Yu suspected he had heard wrong, "Aren’t you..."

Xu Niannian knew what he was trying to say and calmly continued, "What I just said is how I truly feel, but getting married isn’t off the table. We can register first and have the wedding later, and... until I agree, you’re not allowed to touch me."

She meant a specific kind of touch, and Jin Yu understood.

Nevertheless, he couldn’t contain his excitement, and in a burst of emotion, he embraced Xu Niannian, laughing, "Are you serious? Are we really getting registered?"

In Jin Yu’s eyes, registering the marriage meant Xu Niannian would be his wife for life, and he intended to treat her well forever, making her willing to accept this husband of hers.

His joy was all too apparent; Xu Niannian could easily feel it and her lips curled into a smile.

She thought, accepting Jin Yu didn’t seem too difficult.

From the moment she agreed to date him, she had been heading toward marriage as the goal, it just happened faster than she anticipated, catching her off guard.

When Yang Cuihua told her, she felt annoyed and irritable, but deep down, she had never thought of refusing.

"Yes, I’ll really register with you, no regrets, but you have to agree to the conditions I mentioned."

"Of course," Jin Yu let her go, looking at her lovely face, he held it and gave her a kiss, "Even if you hadn’t said that, I wouldn’t have forced you into anything if you weren’t willing."

Upon hearing this, Xu Niannian laughed, "Then you better hurry and submit our marriage application."

"Wait for me," Jin Yu kissed her cheek again before he left.

As soon as Jin Yu was gone, Yang Cuihua rushed into Xu Niannian’s room, "Baby Nian, what did you and Xiao Jin talk about?"

Yang Cuihua felt a bit uncertain, afraid that Xu Niannian would blame her for taking matters into her own hands.

"I agreed to register our marriage with him, told him to hurry up and submit the marriage application," Xu Niannian revealed.

"Really?" Yang Cuihua was thrilled, "Baby Nian, you really agreed?"

"Really."

Seeing how happy Yang Cuihua was, Xu Niannian couldn’t help but laugh herself.

It seemed that marrying Jin Yu wasn’t too bad after all.

Things had progressed in a way Xu Niannian hadn’t expected, but she was adaptable. Plus, she had feelings for Jin Yu, so it wasn’t exactly a compromise.

All in all, she was quite satisfied with Jin Yu.
