Chapter Thirteen Return to Reality

  （1）

  Today is unusual.

  Although Ge Tianyu didn't think so, she was extremely annoyed when she was pulled out of her warm bed by Aunt Zhen. Glancing at the wall clock, it wasn't even 8 o'clock yet, what's the hurry? It's just going to the Civil Affairs Bureau for registration, no big deal.

  "Xiao Jin is coming to find you?" Zhen Yi pushed Ge Tianyu into the bathroom, "It's better to go early, there are fewer people, and it will be faster."

  "Come on, mom. I'm the one getting married, not you. Why are you in such a hurry?" Ge Tianyu said discontentedly, poking his head out, with foam all over his mouth, and waving his toothbrush nonstop. "Besides, how many weddings can there be in one day? It's just a matter of registering, it doesn't matter what time we go."

  Zhen's aunt pushed her back again.

  After waiting for so long, these two children finally have the intention to get married, how can she not be anxious? The wrinkles on Zhen's smiling face became even more pronounced as she thought this.

  "I'm done." Ge Tianyu walked out of the bathroom, with water droplets dripping from his hair on one side of his face. "Yu Jing will probably take a while longer, I'll go rest for a bit..." He said, then walked back into the bedroom and fell onto the bed again.

  Alas, I have no idea when I can return to reality. Ge Tianyu buried her head in the quilt, rolling her eyes restlessly. Even if she returned to reality, everything would be the same, so how could she find out?

  Yu Jing took a deep breath. For the first time in her life, she was eagerly looking forward to seeing that stinky man! Humph, stinky man! Arrogant and petty, without any gentlemanly demeanor. Every time they ate out, he would choose expensive places and make her pay. Even in a dream world, one needs money, right? He even dared to secretly change the notes on her phone and threatened her not to change them back. Yu Jing! Stinky man!

  Keep rolling your eyes, keep rolling your eyes. Roll roll roll——

  Just as she was concentrating on scolding Yu Rong, the mobile phone placed beside her pillow suddenly rang, startling her.

  As expected. She knew it all along. That stinky man Yu Jian.

  Is this okay? You brought up the registration, and then you just send a text saying you have something on? Ge Tianyu threw his phone aside, grinding his teeth in anger.

  "What's wrong?" Zhen Auntie walked in with a cup of milk and saw Ge Tianyu kneeling on the bed, frantically hitting the pillow, "What happened?"

  Ge Tianyu punched the pillow again, gritting her teeth. "It's all because of that stinky man Yu Rong! He actually sent me a text message saying he had something to attend to and would be out on a business trip today. His sister! It was him who suggested registering our marriage today, not me rushing to find him. Forget it, I'm not going to marry him now! I'm not someone nobody wants!"

  Aunt Zhen was anxious upon hearing this, "This isn't something to be taken lightly, I've already been informed about your marriage, it's a big deal for your whole life, you can't be childish about it."

  "I just said that." Ge Tianyu twitched his mouth, "I'm just fed up. He's the one who mentioned registration, and he's still the one with something going on. What can I do?"

  "She's going to be someone else's wife soon, shouldn't we show some understanding?" Zhen Yi pulled Ge Tianyu up, "Alright, since Xiao Mei can't go, let's just go ourselves."

  "Huh?" Ge Tianyu was stunned. "Isn't this something that requires both parties to go? Without the signatures of both parties, this..."

  "It's already been taken care of." Aunt Zhen smiled, "Two days ago, Xiao Mei told me that he had already taken care of someone at the Civil Affairs Bureau. If something comes up on the day we sign, the certificate can still be picked up."

  "Cut." Ge Tianyu rolled his eyes again, "The emotions were premeditated."

  She put on her coat, and the girl picked up her phone and pulled out Yu Jian's message again.

  "Sender: Stinky Man"

  I have something on today and won't be able to go.

  She put her phone in her pocket. As expected. That stinky man had planned it all along.

  It's not even a long weekend, but there are indeed many people from the Civil Affairs Bureau.

  A white-eyed fish jumped out.

  "I told you to come earlier, but you didn't believe me." Aunt Zhen complained.

  Another big white eye, "I said today shouldn't come, you still don't listen." This line is long enough, what day is it today, why do new people like to come. Flipping through the almanac, ah, auspicious for marriage, what era is this, still believing in this.

  "Today is a lucky day on the Yellow Calendar, you silly child." Aunt Zhen scolded her, "If you miss this good day, you'll have to postpone it until later."

  "What time is it now, and you still believe in this. This day is almost here, as long as people are convenient, whenever it's okay." Ge Tianyu was very disdainful of his mother's old theory, "If I say so, let's come again tomorrow, standing in line to wait until which century goes by."

  She glared at her, then lowered her head to flip through the directory. "Ah, yes, yes, I'm here, just outside, okay, let's go in." She glared at her again, "Let's go."

  "Huh?" Ge Tianyu was stunned again, "Can we go in now? There are still so many people ahead of us."

  The old man who was balding prematurely looked at Ge Tianyu with a scrutinizing gaze, his eyes crawling over her body like some kind of slimy creature, making her feel extremely uncomfortable. What are you looking at? You're not here to marry into my family, what's your business? Ge Tianyu rolled her eyes in annoyance, managing to convey some displeasure to the lecherous old man.

  "Zhen's niece is quite a pretty girl." He withdrew his gaze, and Uncle drew some strokes on the paper, then threw his gaze back at her. "Old Master Yu is very concerned about this marriage, after all, it's the young master of the Yu family. Even if something like that happened, it can't be handled carelessly."

  "Yes, yes, we all understand." Aunt Zhen said with a smile, "Then sign it. After we get the certificate, let's go see Old Master."

  Ge Tianyu smiled and signed his name.

  The man's name was still blank. She glanced at it, but she knew who it would be.

  Yu Chen

  This is already reality.

  "What are you doing with my phone?" Ge Tianyu looked at the phone in Yu Jing's hand, very dissatisfied. "You're not allowed to flip through it, that's my personal privacy!"

  Yu Jing didn't have any self-awareness as a lawyer at all, and very naturally flipped through Ge Tianyu's phone, with a practiced air that seemed like it wasn't the first time she'd done this kind of thing.

  "Are you sure you're a professional lawyer?" Ge Tianyu leaned forward several times in vain, then sat down helplessly, looking at Yu Jing with disdain.

  "What's professional conduct for?". Yu Jing didn't even lift her head, her hands flying quickly across the screen.

  Ge Tianyu stood up again and tried to grab his phone back, "Hey, don't mess with it!"

  Yu Jing returned his phone to Ge Tianyu, "I've changed the note. My number."

  Lowering her head to take a look, indeed, the note on Yu Jian's phone number had changed back from "Stinky Man" to "Yu Jian". Ge Tianyu's face turned slightly red, "Why did you change this..."

  Yu Jian's mouth corner revealed a hint of smile, "Just remember that it's fine if you want to change back later, but this part must be kept. Otherwise, you'll regret it."

  A big white eye rolled over, Ge Tianyu was dissatisfied but didn't say anything else. After all, what Yu Jian did was with his own considerations. So just leave it for now, anyway the stinky man's nature can't be changed, just a note.

  The SMS ringtone sounded.

  "Sender: Stinky Man"

  I have something on today and won't be able to go.

  She smiled, so it was like this. Already back in the real world.

  She looked at her mother who came out of the kitchen, listened to her inquiry, and put away her smile, gritting her teeth. "It's that stinky man Yu Jian again! He actually sent me a text message saying he had something to attend to today and would be going on a business trip. My goodness! It was his idea to register our marriage today, not mine. I'm not desperate for him. This wedding is off! I'm not someone nobody wants!"

  Ah, so you're back already. My beloved reality.
