Mr. CEO Has a Crush on Me
Chapter 409 - Chapter 409 Chapter 409 Getting the Certificate (3)

Chapter 409: Chapter 409: Getting the Certificate (3) Chapter 409: Chapter 409: Getting the Certificate (3) Auntie Li stood frozen on the spot for quite some time before finally smiling with joy as she went to call the lady of the house to share the good news.

If they were to wait for the young master to bring it up himself, it’s possible that a child would be born and both the old master and his wife would still be kept in the dark.

Given the young master’s temperament, since he was willing to tell her, Auntie Li, it clearly meant he intended to inform the old master and his wife.

“Madam, the young master is finally married! No no no, married as in wedded… look at me, I’m just too excited…”

Lu Wanwan sat in the car, glancing at the time.

It was now three in the afternoon, and given Gu Annan’s driving speed, they would definitely reach the Civil Affairs Office before four o’clock.

She rolled down the window, desperately needing to let the cold breeze calm her down.

Her heart rate hadn’t settled since the moment she proposed marriage to Gu Annan.

Suggesting marriage to Gu Annan was a spur-of-the-moment decision after days of contemplation, the moment she saw their fingers intertwined.

Even so, she still wasn’t sure if she was ready.

In her plans, either he would hesitate and she would retract her proposal, or, if he agreed, they would notify his parents, set a date after confirmation…

She never imagined she would already be in a car heading to the Civil Affairs Office.

“Gu Annan, your parents… They won’t mind you getting married so early, right?” she asked cautiously, watching his expression.

Is it really okay to go straight to get a marriage certificate?

Gu Annan glanced at her indifferently, “Don’t worry so much, they’re probably more anxious than you are.”

What does it mean, ‘more anxious than she is’…

“…” Lu Wanwan continued to look out the window, feeling less urgent than it seemed.

She lowered her head to check her phone, once again noticing the news about the media tycoon’s unclear future.

“Gu Annan, actually…” She paused, then spoke softly.

Before she could finish, Gu Annan’s phone rang.

Whatever was said on the other end made his expression turn grave.

“I understand, I’ll come over,” Gu Annan said calmly before hanging up and turning the car at the intersection, “I need to stop by the office, there’s a minor issue.”

“Okay.” She nodded, swallowing back the words she was about to say.

Gu Annan mistook her slight disappointment for thinking he was treating the matter too lightly.

“It won’t take long, and if you’re worried, I can have someone call to prevent them from leaving the office.”

Lu Wanwan turned her head away, her eyes filled with a complex and helpless look, “…”

Did she seem so desperate to get married that she couldn’t bear any delay?

If she admitted she wasn’t ready at that moment, he probably wouldn’t believe her.

“No need for that; another day is fine,” she said.

Gu Annan simply smiled and continued driving.

Lu Wanwan glanced at his expression; he clearly didn’t believe her…

“What were you about to say?” he asked.

She leaned her elbow against the car door, looked out at the buildings flying past the window, and said in a deliberately nonchalant tone, “I was about to say you don’t need to drive so fast, you’re almost speeding.”

Gu Annan’s lips tightened slightly, his eyes fixed on the windshield, “I always drive at this speed.”

She also remained silent with a smile, her face saying, do as you will.

The car stopped outside Gu Building, and he quickly unbuckled his seatbelt, “Wait for me here; I’ll be back soon.”

Gu Annan entered the Gu Building, and she listlessly took out her phone again.

Her phone wallpaper was a picture of her with her grandmother; how wonderful it would be if her grandmother could see this day.

After a short while, she felt someone approaching out of the corner of her eye.

Looking up, she saw Ji Jiayi walking towards her with a look in her eyes as if she wanted to kill her. Jiayi pulled open the car door as if she had lost her senses and screamed, “Lu Wanwan, I hate you!”
