The next morning, Gu Xiaoxi was gently shaken awake by her aunt.
“Xiaoxi, wake up! Lu Jiansen and his family are already here!”
Gu Xiaoxi rubbed her eyes groggily. “What time is it?”
“Seven-thirty in the morning!” her aunt replied with a chuckle. “Your fiancé drove over in a military vehicle. He said his unit received an urgent mission recall, but his official marriage approval has already been granted!”
So fast?! Gu Xiaoxi hadn’t expected the military approval to process overnight.
Lu Jiansen’s plan was swift: hold the formal engagement ceremony in the morning, register their marriage at the civil affairs bureau before noon, and host a small celebratory dinner in the evening!
Sitting inside the military vehicle shortly after, Gu Xiaoxi looked at Lu Jiansen as he drove. “What did you tell my parents?”
Lu Jiansen glanced at her with a gentle gaze. “I explained that my unit received an urgent assignment. Your parents were very understanding. Don’t worry—I will take good care of you and honor them.”
When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, the process went smoothly, and within minutes, they held their official red marriage certificates.
Looking at the handsome officer beside her, Gu Xiaoxi felt a quiet sense of security. From this moment on, he was officially her husband.
