Chapter 90: Marriage

As soon as Shi Qingyang’s words came out, except for Zheng Gaoyuan, who was still thinking about the wedding banquet, everyone else was shocked and speechless.

Especially so for Sheng Lin, Fu Xiaohua, and the rest who had only been with Shi Qingyang for a few days.
They were men who were rough around the edges, and thus, hadn’t picked up on the ambiguity between Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran.
They had great respect for Shi Qingyang and admired Cheng Ran… As it turned out, ,those two were going to get married.

If other people found out about this, it would definitely be big news! One had to know that many people were still guessing which granddaughter Cheng Xuze was planning to marry to Shi Qingyang.

Moreover, Shi Qingyang eager appearance… They couldn’t imagine that Shi Qingyang, who always looked so steady, would be so excited.

Sheng Lin desperately wanted to spread this gossip he’d learned with others, but thinking of the possible consequences after sharing, he finally decided not to say anything.

In contrast, Li Jiajia and Ye Jinyu were much calmer.
They had been exercising with Shi Qingyang for a longer time.
Naturally, they knew Shi Qingyang’s thoughts on Cheng Ran, but they felt a little sad–such a good man was only 18 years old, and decided to marry another good man…

Wang Qing paused for a moment, then silently picked up the meat that had fallen back onto the plate and stuffed it into his mouth.
He was really getting old and could not compare with young people.

Cheng Ran was ecstatic.
He had been thinking about this matter ever since he established a love relationship with Shi Qingyang.
Now he had reaped the result.
“Qingyang, where will we live in the future? Do you want children? How many children do you want?”

“…” Even though he announced the marriage in advance, he still lost because Cheng Ran’s thoughts were really far-reaching… Shi Qingyang felt helpless: “Let’s forget about children…” How old was he now? Moreover, as long as he thought of the beast tide 20 years later, things like having children were far from his mind.

He now had enough money to go to Central City to raise a child, but he couldn’t be responsible for the child.

“I think that way too.
It’s good to have no children, as long as us two stay together.” Cheng Ran nodded.
In fact, if he hadn’t read so many posts recently, he wouldn’t have thought of having children.

Shi Qingyang tried to control himself to keep a serious expression.
Then he immediately looked at the people around him, who were staring: “If you’ve finished eating, why aren’t you hurrying up and going to train?”

Li Jiajia and Ye Jinyu reacted the fastest.
They saw that the mobile fortress had arrived near the swamp when they were eating, and put on their combat suits and walked out.
Sheng Lin and the others took it a little slower, but they were not much far behind.
Only Zheng Gaoyuan was not happy: “Didn’t you want to rest for an hour? There’s still 15 minutes…”

Zheng Gaoyuan was finally thrown into the swamp by Shi Qingyang.

That afternoon, everyone performed very well, but Shi Qingyang’s reaction was somewhat different.
In the past, he always went to run in the mud for a few rounds.
This time, he never let his feet touch the mud.
In order to avoid accidents caused by his energy loss, he even prepared several huge leaves so that he could settle down when he had to.

He looked so clean that even his shoes, standing beside a group of people covered with mud, looked extremely outstanding.

Someone who was about to get married should always keep up a good image in front of the person they liked! Shi Qingyang watched Cheng Ran climb out of the mud again.
His protective mask was covered with mud and water, and his appearance couldn’t be seen.
He suddenly felt a little sad–why didn’t Cheng Ran notice his handsomeness?

Because Shi Qingyang had found Sheng Lin, Fu Xiaohua, and the others to join his team for the first time, it was inevitable that some people recommended themselves to him these days.
When he returned to the city that night, there was no exception.
Some level-4 rad-energy warriors found him and boasted their strength, and some young rad-energy warriors found him and told him how poor they were.

Shi Qingyang rejected all these people.
This time, he selected the people who had helped him a lot in the past life, and as for those who recommended themselves…

Some of these people came for the Cheng family’s name, and some paid more attention to Wang Qing than to him… There was no doubt that if they had met in Shi Qingyang’s previous life, they would have never paid attention to him.

When Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran returned to their residence, Cheng Xuze was standing at the door.
As soon as he saw Shi Qingyang, he immediately asked, “Are you going to get married tomorrow?”

“Yes, Grandpa.” Shi Qingyang smiled and nodded: “Let’s register first, and I will hold a grand wedding if we get a chance!”

Cheng Xuze’s expression was somewhat strange, but finally he smiled: “I originally wanted you to not leave the city tomorrow, but I didn’t expect this.
Who knows if this is heaven’s will…”

“Grandpa?” Shi Qingyang asked curiously.

“Come in, I have something to tell you,” Cheng Xuze spoke.

What Cheng Xuze wanted to tell him was about Li Rong.
He had already made a plan to lure the snake out of the hole, and the plan was set to be implemented in the next two days.

Originally, according to Cheng Xuze’s plan, he would personally “secretly” send the Yin family and Ao Zhi to Yangtze City in these two days, and reveal that he was going to Yangtze City for interrogation.

In order not to let people know what he had done, Li Rong would definitely try to kill Ao Zhi and the others when something like this happened.
When the time came, they could wait for him to throw himself into the net.

Of course, Li Rong was not stupid and would not dare to take action easily.
Because of this, Cheng Xuze could never allow others to know that he had also left with the team escorting the Yin Family, and had to find a reason to tell others he was staying in the city.

Originally, Cheng Xuze was still thinking about how to find a reason for remaining in the city.
However, Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran unexpectedly decided to register for marriage…

Although he thought it was too early for the two children to register so soon, it was undeniable that this reason seemed very good–it was normal for him not to accompany the prisoners when his grandson wanted to get married.

“Grandpa, do you mean that you will secretly follow the team escorting the prisoners to Yangtze City, and then need to find someone in Anhang City to pretend to be you, so that Li Rong thinks you haven’t left?” Shi Qingyang asked simply.

“Yes, that’s it.
I’ll exchange identities with Wang Qing and let Wang Qing follow you,” Cheng Xuze said, with a little regret on his face, and looked at Cheng Ran: “Xiao Ran, grandpa can’t follow you then, but Grandpa will definitely arrange a grand wedding for you in the future.”

“Thank you, Grandpa.” Cheng Ran smiled.

“Tomorrow, Xiao Ran, you must get up early so that you can put makeup on Grandpa,” Cheng Xuze said.
Tomorrow he would dress up as Wang Qing to follow the team out of the city, and Wang Qing would dress up as him to witness the marriage of Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran.
Naturally, makeup was necessary.

And this happened to be what Cheng Ran was good at.

“Grandpa, I will get up early!” Cheng Ran promised, but in the end, he didn’t do so.
Not because he slept in late, but because he didn’t sleep at all.

Cheng Ran always found it hard to believe that he was going to officially be with Shi Qingyang.
He had been tired for a whole day.
After the intense training a few days ago, he basically fell asleep right after.
But today, he just couldn’t sleep.

He became dozed several times, but when he suddenly thought of what was going to happen tomorrow, he woke up again.

In fact, if he went to Shi Qingyang, he might have slept well.
But tonight, he didn’t know what was going on, he just didn’t want to go there.

After thinking for a while, he didn’t sleep at all.
Instead, he took out a small box from the side and opened it.
He looked at everything inside.

He always took these things with him and often couldn’t help taking them out.

Cheng Ran couldn’t sleep, and Shi Qingyang was similar in a similar position.
In his last life, others had pursued him.
Later, he promised to stay with Liang Liang.
However, this was definitely his first time registering for marriage, and he couldn’t help being nervous.

Originally, after feeling uneasy, he thought about waiting for Cheng Ran to come to his room so they could talk well, but he didn’t expect that Cheng Ran would never come…

After waiting for Cheng Ran, Shi Qingyang decided to take the initiative and knocked on Cheng Ran’s door.

Cheng Ran wasn’t sleeping, like him.
Naturally, he quickly opened the door.
Seeing Shi Qingyang, he was at a loss.
For a while, he even wanted to close the door immediately.

“Ranran, you won’t let me in?” Shi Qingyang smiled when he saw Cheng Ran’s restrained appearance, and his original insecurity disappeared.

Cheng Ran silently gave up his position.
When he knew Shi Qingyang had gone in, he suddenly thought of something.
Then he immediately went to clean up the things on the bed.

“What is this?” Shi Qingyang, however, had already seen the scattered things on the bed and walked over curiously.

“Nothing…” Cheng Ran was even more embarrassed.

“The rabbit robot I sent you before?” Shi Qingyang saw the biggest thing at a glance, and then looked at other things.

A bunch of small metal rods, a small box, and some miscellaneous objects…

At first, he didn’t recognize these things.
Later, he touched the rabbit robot to think about it, and found that these were all things he had given to Cheng Ran, including the medals he had won in the Spark Academy competition, the remaining cans of candy he had bought for Cheng Ran, the gadgets he made from the bones of beasts he had hunted, and the game machine he had specially bought for Cheng Ran.

Cheng Ran obviously took all the things he sent and collected them.

Shi Qingyang felt his heart become full, but soon found something that puzzled him.
He picked up several metal rods next to him and asked, “What is this?”

“The rest of the lollipops…” Cheng Ran answered subconsciously.

Lollipops? Shi Qingyang was shocked.
He remembered that he had taken Cheng Ran to the amusement park before.
There, Cheng Ran won a lot of lollipops.

He almost forgot about this, but he didn’t expect that Cheng Ran still kept the lollipop stick.

On this thought, Shi Qingyang remembered the origin of several other objects, including the box containing dried meat that he had given to Cheng Ran when he had met him for the first time…

His heart was warm and fuzzy… The corners of Shi Qingyang’s mouth were getting higher and higher–when someone carefully kept all the gifts he had given, no matter good or bad, that person wouldn’t betray him as before, even if he gifted his trust and affection.

He had always doubted that Cheng Ran was still young and couldn’t understand his feelings.
Now, thinking back on that, he had been too paranoid…

Shi Qingyang kissed Cheng Ran and fell down on the bed with him.

“Wait, something’s stuck behind me.” Cheng Ran eagerly reached behind him and searched.

Shi Qingyang looked at Cheng Ran’s anxious appearance and suddenly couldn’t help laughing.

This evening, Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran both stayed up all night.
They leaned close together and slowly began to talk about things from the time they first met.
Even when they talked until the rest of the house started to stir, they still felt they weren’t done talking.

Normally when Cheng Ran hadn’t slept all night before, he would be very haggard.
But now, one couldn’t see it from his face alone.
Shi Qingyang led Cheng Ran downstairs.
Both of them were in a better mood than ever.

Cheng Xuze and Wang Qing had already gotten up.
Seeing them together, they said nothing.
They just pulled Cheng Ran over and asked him to help them put on makeup.

Gu Changjin cooked breakfast.
He cooked a lot of food.
Looking at Cheng Ran, who was painting something on Cheng Xuze’s face, he was in a mixed mood.
This was the young master of his family.
Today he had grown up…

Cheng Ran’s craftsmanship was very good.
Wang Qing and Cheng Xuze quickly changed their faces.
Cheng Xuze and Wang Qing were similar in size, and both of them were familiar with each other, so they had no pressure to act.

However, it was easy to be seen by people when they got close… Fortunately, Cheng Xuze needed to wear a helmet when he went outside the city.
Wang Qing was in the city.
After he dressed up in Cheng Xuze’s clothes, generally no one would dare to approach.

After last night’s preparations, Shi Qingyang took a look at Cheng Ran and brought him directly to the marriage registration office.

Marriage registration was not difficult, as long as a simple routine check-up was carried out.
Because today’s personal health status was recorded in the contact terminal, even the health check was exempted.

When they went out, Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran both wore hats and sunglasses for safety.
When they arrived, they did not take them off.
Only after the couple in front of them completed their registration did they go forward to brush their contact terminals.

The clerk who registered the marriage was a woman.
The first thing she saw was the age.
After scanning the ages of the two people, she paused on Cheng Ran’s birthday.
The woman subconsciously asked, “You’re getting married as soon as you’re becoming an adult.
Are you pregnant? Do your parents know? Have your children been examined? No… Cheng Ran? Shi Qingyang?”

He didn’t expect that he would become famous so early in life… Shi Qingyang pushed his hat up: “We are both men.
We can’t have children without the help of science and technology.”

“Haha, that’s… I just didn’t think of it…” The staff member looked up at Shi Qingyang from time to time while checking the data, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

“If you help us get things done quickly, you can chat with people and disclose the information,” Shi Qingyang said.

“Ahaha, why didn’t I think of that?” The speed of the staff member suddenly accelerated.
Soon, the contact terminal of the two people received a prompt box indicating whether they were willing to get married.
Shi Qingyang clicked yes without thinking about it, and soon found that his information listed had changed to married.

Seeing that things were finished, Shi Qingyang took Cheng Ran away without turning back.
He could imagine how busy it would be here later–he didn’t want to be besieged with Cheng Ran!

Seeing that Cheng Ran and Shi Qingyang had left, the staff member opened the contact terminal and was about to reveal the information to her family.
Suddenly, she regretted that she had gone through the process too fast.
She didn’t get to spend more time with the two handsome men, let alone take photos…
