Ni Jiu (Intoxicated) - Chap 27
Shen Tingwei’s blindfold was taken off, he looked sleepily at Lian Jue next to him, his voice hoarse: “Arrived?”
“Breakfast.” Lian Jue raised his hand gently and motioned the flight attendant to put breakfast in front of Shen Tingwei.
Shen Ting sat up without propping up the seat, her soft hair was messed up in the flat soft seat, her eyes were half-open, she rubbed her sore temples in a daze, and asked, “Have I slept for a long time? ?”
“Yeah.” Lian Jue was different from him, his eyes were so clear that he seemed to have never fallen asleep, and he didn’t know if the shirt was made of high-grade fabrics, and there was no wrinkle on it.
How did you do it? Shen Ting didn’t set the messy bangs, looked back at the heavy Western-style breakfast in front of him, and put down the tableware he picked up: “Can I have some white porridge?”
Lian Jue didn’t answer, he reached out and summoned the flight attendant to remove the plates in front of him one by one, and put back a light breakfast.
Shen Tingwei said gratefully, “Thank you.”
Shen Tingwei has been studying with his parents since he was a child, and because of his father’s work, the family rarely travels, so this is Shen Tingwei’s first time to fly.
Shen Tingwei had always hoped that he would have the opportunity to take a plane ride. He was curious about what it would feel like to float on the clouds. Now that he actually took it, he didn’t seem so excited anymore.
Sitting really bored, I remembered to pull down the window shutter and look out.
The early morning sky is not as blue as imagined, it is a shallow light that is similar to gray and white, the clouds covered in the line of sight are like stacks of cotton wool, the distant skyline is looming with a half-rising sun, and the golden sunlight is embedded with red edges from far away. Nearly blooming.
Never looked at the sun like this.
Shen Ting didn’t have any novelty, just looking at it, his eyes were suddenly covered with darkness.
“The sun is very big.” Lian Jue put down the baffle in front of him, and then let go.
“Oh.” Shen Ting did not retract his eyes, but after getting used to the light in the cabin for a while, he realized the faint tingling sensation in his eyes.
He rubbed his eyes and said to Lian Jue for the second time today, “Thank you.”
Lian Jue gave a “hmm” and looked away from his long eyelashes that were drooping from squinting.
The plane landed on time at the international airport.
Although he checked the local weather in advance and prepared clothes to wear when he got off the plane, the cold and humid climate here still made Shen Tingwei very uncomfortable.
He pulled the zipper of the thick lamb’s wool coat to the top, and casually tucked half of his chin under the fluffy high collar, asking Lianjue: “Are we going to register directly?”
When he spoke, there was a white and cold mist in front of his face. Lian Jue did not answer his question, looked at his red nose and asked, “Are you cold?”
Shen Ting’s unshaking shoulders were obviously saying yes, but he shook his head, took a breath, and said, “It’s okay.”
Lian Jue glanced at him and said nothing more, “Let’s go.”
He started to walk very fast, and noticed that Shen Tingwei was having a hard time following behind him, and the pace slowed down a little.
I didn’t send an assistant to accompany me this time. Fortunately, the two kept things simple and didn’t bring any extra luggage, so they didn’t stay at the airport for too long.
Lin Chen contacted the driver and guide of country C in advance, and someone picked them up when they got out of the airport. The driver was a Chinese. He only knew that he was picking up a prominent leader, and subconsciously ignored Shen Tingwei who was accompanying him.
He handed the hot coffee prepared in advance to Lian Jue, and smiled flatly: “Is it cold here? You warm up first.”
Lian Jue handed over the warm coffee to Shen Tingwei, Shen Tingwei was stunned, and subconsciously refused: “With caffeine, I can’t…”
Lian Jue insisted on putting the coffee in his hand and said to the driver, “Go back to the hotel first.”
Shen Tingwei held the coffee in his hand, and he couldn’t drink it or throw it away, he could only hold it obediently.
The car drove out for a long time, and his almost stiff fingers slowly regained consciousness in the warmth of the palm of his hand. Only then did he realize Lian Jue’s intention and turned his head to look at Lian Jue unexpectedly, with a subtle emotion in his eyes.
After realizing that Lian Jue was looking straight ahead attentively, he quickly restrained his expression and withdrew his gaze.
Lian Jue made a phone call on the way back to the hotel, Shen Tingwei’s attention was on the melting snow outside the window and the gray sky, which looked like it was about to rain.
Lin Chen couldn’t figure out the real relationship between the two, so he booked a presidential suite for them.
Lian Jue did not show any objection, and Shen Tingwei would not say no, but after finding out that the suite was a two-bedroom, he still took up the small bedroom next to the master bedroom on his own initiative.
After staying in the room for a while, someone knocked on the door. Lian Jue didn’t come out of the room for a long time. Shen Tingwei walked over and opened the door.
The waiter at the hotel handed the clothes to him and told him in English: “This is the clothes you need.”
Shen Tingwei took his clothes and knocked on the door of Lian Jue’s room. The sound of water from the room did not stop. Lian Jue was probably taking a shower and didn’t hear it.
Shen Tingwei had no choice but to put the clothes on the sofa in the living room. After a while, he couldn’t hold back his doubts. He felt that the color and style of the clothes didn’t look like a style that even Jue would wear.
He hesitated to look at the size at the neckline of the clothes, and sure enough, it was for him.
Shen Tingwei originally wanted to take a bath, but remembered that Lian Jue said that his immunity would be lowered at this stage, and he was worried that he would catch a cold due to the alternation of sudden cold and sudden heat, so he had to give up.
After Lian Jue took a shower and got dressed, Shen Tingwei had already changed his clothes and asked him, “Are we going now?”
Lian Jue said yes, and after thinking about it, when he went downstairs and passed the front desk, someone brought a scarf and gloves to Shen Tingwei – the weather here is colder than the winter in many places, and the hotel has always kept warm supplies for the guests. Afraid of cold guests.
A thick sweater and a thick scarf were added inside, and it really didn’t get cold at the beginning. Shen Tingwei was the same as Laishi, sitting side by side with Lian Jue in the back seat.
The hotel was arranged in advance, the distance from the city hall was not too long, the driver was not familiar with Lian Jue’s personal habits, and there was soft music playing on the car radio, and Lian Jue did not say anything to stop him.
For the marriage that was about to become a reality, Shen Tingwei didn’t have much fluctuation in his heart, neither was he nervous or joyful, and it was obvious that the other party was the same from the standing and calm sitting posture.
The registration process should be very ceremonial, judging from the performance of other couples, but when it was Shen Tingwei’s turn, he only felt that the whole process was tedious and embarrassing.
He believed that even Jue felt the same way.
Before the witness’s oath was read out, Lian Jue said “I do”.
The witness took this as the bridegroom’s impatience, smiled with blessing, and told them to start exchanging rings.
Shen Ting did not put the exquisite velvet square box in his hand before entering the door and took it out from his pocket, pretending to solemnly put the silver-white plain ring on the ring finger of Lianjue – the ring looked temporary Bought to deal with the registration ceremony, it is not like the style that Lian Jue will choose.
Lian Jue quickly put the diamond ring in his hand on his ring finger – without even using his acting skills. Not as formal as Shen Tingwei, he just pushed the ring on the base of his finger and immediately retracted his hand.
The size of the ring was inappropriate, and it was too loose on Shen Ting’s slender and white fingers. Just after wearing it, the diamond that was so large that it was hard to ignore it ran along the fingers of his ring finger and little finger. It slid sideways between the cracks and fell on the base of the fingers, which was really funny.
Before the ceremony was over, Shen Tingwei had no choice but to dial it back up, and when this part was over, he immediately clenched his hands, afraid of falling.
After the witness announces that the marriage is valid, the last kiss is left.
Shen Tingwei slowed down a lot and felt nervous. He looked at the tall Lian Jue in front of him, but a faint thought of escaping occurred in his heart. But only for a moment. Because in the next second, that handsome face he had to admit was approaching him.
His heart beat suddenly fast when he closed his eyes.
Lian Jue just lowered his head and touched his lips lightly and distantly.
The heating in the municipal office was sufficient. Before Shen Ting opened his eyes again, he felt very hot, as if he was about to sweat.
The staff of the marriage office called it a simple “wedding”, and the blond man handed them the registration certificate and wished them happiness.
Shen Tingwei looked at Lian Jue and took it with a smile. He politely thanked the other party for his blessing. He recognized for a while whether Lian Jue’s thanks came from the bottom of his heart, because he seemed to be sincere.
But he quickly made a negative answer in his mind.
Every time you play, everyone gets what they need. Shen Ting did not remind himself.
Coming out of the city hall, Shen Ting did not breathe the long-lost air, and soon felt cold again, so he had to pull the scarf to his chin.
He turned his head to look at Lian Jue and smiled, and said to Lian Jue the first words after marriage as if to ease the atmosphere: “Happy wedding.”
Lian Jue looked at him for a long time with a very strange look, as if he did not expect him to say that, Shen Tingwei’s smiling eyes were faint in the mist he exhaled, with a look that seemed not to appear between the two of them at all. of warm qualities.
When Shen Ting didn’t think that Lian Jue would ignore him, Lian Jue looked away and returned him without much emotion: “Happy wedding.”
