#76 - Chapter 76: My daughter actually got the marriage certificate?

United States, early morning.

Yang Qingyue woke up, she always sleeps early and wakes up early.

Xu Guofeng hasn't come to the hospital yet.

He probably hasn't even gotten up.

"Qingyue, Mengyao got married?"

"Director Yang, I heard Mengyao got married, congratulations."

Yang Qingyue opened her phone and saw two messages.

One was from Xu Mengyao's Aunt Liang, and the other was from a mother of one of Xu Mengyao's university classmates.

Yang Qingyue was stunned.

Her daughter got married? How come she, the mother, didn't know?

Could it be they saw the video of Lin Chen playing basketball? In the video, Xu Mengyao called Lin Chen husband?

That was just to fool Lin Xiaoqian.

"Director Xue, where did you hear that Mengyao got married?"

Yang Qingyue sent a message to the mother of Xu Mengyao's classmate.

The other person was the mother of Xu Mengyao's university roommate next door. Her family owned a company and their conditions were good. They had added each other on WeChat before, and the companies had even cooperated once.

"Director Yang, my daughter told me."

"It's all being discussed in their class group, Mengyao said it herself."

This person replied quickly.

It was morning for Yang Qingyue, but it wasn't dark yet in China.

A look of surprise appeared in Yang Qingyue's eyes.

"Ding ding!"

Yang Qingyue made a video call to Xu Mengyao.

"Mom, is something the matter? I haven't gotten off work yet."

Xu Mengyao was puzzled. Usually, Yang Qingyue would make video calls around eight or nine o'clock, when she was basically home.

At this time, she was either still at work, or she had gotten off work but was still in the car and it wasn't convenient to answer video calls.

"Mengyao, you're in the office."

"I heard from Huang Jiayun's mother that you said yourself that you got married?"

"How come I, the mother, don't know?"

Yang Qingyue said unhappily.

Xu Mengyao: "..."

She said helplessly: "Yesterday, I went out for a walk with Lin Chen, and he... he held my hand, and two classmates happened to see us."

"When I introduced him, I said Lin Chen was my husband, and told them to keep it a secret, but—"

Yang Qingyue: "You and Lin Chen and Qianqian went for a walk?"

Xu Mengyao's face turned slightly red.

"No, yesterday Qingqing came over for a meal, she brought Qianqian, and she urged Lin Chen and me to go for a walk."

Yang Qingyue's eyes lit up.

Her daughter and Lin Chen have made progress.

"Why did you introduce Lin Chen as your husband when Qianqian wasn't there? Isn't there something wrong with introducing him like that?"

"You could have introduced him as your boyfriend."

Xu Mengyao: "..."

"Mom, that... Lin Chen and I got our marriage certificate."

Yang Qingyue was stunned.

"When did this happen?"

Xu Mengyao: "It's been a while. He and I did a prenuptial agreement first, and then went to get the certificate. Our premarital and post-marital property all belongs to ourselves."

Yang Qingyue stared blankly at Xu Mengyao.

"Mom, I don't plan to get married anytime soon. Lin Chen said he doesn't have that plan either, so we just got a certificate, which might be better for Qianqian."

Yang Qingyue: "Did you suggest it or did Lin Chen suggest it?"

"I... I suggested it."

Yang Qingyue shook her head: "It must have been Lin Chen who suggested it. With your personality, would you suggest getting a marriage certificate with him? Mengyao, you were tricked by Lin Chen into getting a marriage certificate."

Xu Mengyao: "..."

Shen Qing and her mother both saw it at a glance.

How could she have been so foolishly tricked by Lin Chen back then?

"Lin Chen should be thinking of confirming the relationship first, and then slowly cultivating feelings, which is quite good."

Xu Mengyao: "Mom, how is this good? I was tricked, you have to criticize Lin Chen severely when the time comes."

"Don't be like Shen Qing, after eating the food Lin Chen made, you start siding with him."

Yang Qingyue: "If you are deceived by a scumbag, your dad and I will uphold justice for you. But if you are deceived by Lin Chen, then just let him deceive you, it's quite good this way."

Xu Mengyao: "..."

"Lin Chen's parents don't know yet either?"

Xu Mengyao nodded: "Yes, we agreed that this is a matter between the two of us and has nothing to do with our two families. Mom, don't talk nonsense."

Yang Qingyue: "No wonder you called him husband when playing basketball, and introduced Lin Chen as your husband to others."

"He really is your husband now."

"That's great."

Xu Mengyao blushed: "Mom, I'm not talking to you anymore. I have something to do, don't talk nonsense with Lin Chen."

After speaking, Xu Mengyao quickly hung up the video.

She felt her heartbeat quicken a lot.

An hour later, Xu Guofeng arrived at the hospital.

"Wife, what's wrong?"

"Did the doctor tell you some good news?"

Xu Guofeng asked.

Yang Qingyue's expression showed a bit of joy.

"Aren't we worried that Lin Chen and Mengyao won't end up together? We don't have to worry about this issue anymore."

Xu Guofeng said in surprise: "They're together? With Mengyao's condition, it shouldn't be this fast."

Yang Qingyue shook her head.

"They already got their marriage certificate!"

Xu Guofeng: "..."

Good heavens, his daughter got her marriage certificate, and he didn't know.

"What's the situation?"

Yang Qingyue told Xu Guofeng some of the situation.

Xu Guofeng: "Although I only know now, it's a bit sad, but it's a good thing that they got their marriage certificate. Then their chances of being together will increase a lot."

"Yes."

Yang Qingyue nodded.

"Husband, although they got their marriage certificate, and the chances of being together have increased, whether they can really be together still depends on whether the feelings are there."

"Yes."

Xu Guofeng nodded.

"Let's not worry about it, they can handle it well. They are also parents now, not children anymore."

Yang Qingyue smiled: "They got their marriage certificate, they have a child, they've held hands, can a cooked duck still fly away?"

"I just want to recover and go home sooner."

"After going home, let Mengyao live with Lin Chen. They've already got their marriage certificate, why are they still living at their parents' home?"

The next afternoon.

Lin Chen drove to Xu Mengyao's company.

Xu Mengyao's Aunt Liang's birthday banquet was in the evening. Today is not Saturday or Sunday, and her Aunt Liang's husband needs to work.

The other guests are either at work or at school.

Most birthday banquets are at noon, but nowadays, many people don't pay so much attention to the details, and there are many in the evening as well.

After finishing their work in the evening, they can eat and drink more relaxedly.

"Mommy!"

Seeing Xu Mengyao come out, Lin Xiaoqian shouted happily.

Xu Mengyao walked closer.

Lin Chen said: "Mengyao, do we need to change to a different car?"

His car is just an ordinary family car.

Xu Mengyao shook her head: "No need. Given Aunt Liang's family's situation, it's not good to drive a car that's too luxurious. Besides, we don't need to use a car to show off."

As Xu Mengyao spoke, she opened the back door of the car.

"Mommy, you sit in the front."

"I like you and Daddy sitting together."

Lin Xiaoqian said with a giggle.

Xu Mengyao kissed Lin Xiaoqian: "Okay, I'll sit in the front, I have to give your dad directions later."

Soon, Xu Mengyao sat in the passenger seat.

"Lin Chen, before going to Uncle Zhao and Aunt Liang's house, we have to go pick up the painting first. That painting has already been framed."

Xu Mengyao said.

"Mommy, you have to say husband."

Lin Xiaoqian, who was sitting in the safety seat, said.

Xu Mengyao glanced at Lin Xiaoqian: "You have so many requests, where do you get so many requests from such a small child?"

"Husband, let's go."

Xu Mengyao still complied with Lin Xiaoqian.
