425 From Heaven to Hell (1/2)
For the sake of Xiang Wan, Fang Yuanyuan even sacrificed her time with Huang He.
She ”abandoned” Huang He who was still in the hospital and flew back to Jin City with Xiang Wan.
Xiang Wan did not want her to do that.
However, this cousin of hers…
She was worried that Xiang Wan might do something silly.
”What if you jump off from the plane?”
Xiang Wan returned Yuanyuan a disdainful glance. ”Do you think I'm someone who can't get over things forever? Do you think I'm like you?”
Hurhur! Fang Yuanyuan retaliated with a scornful frown. ”I used to think you won't, but after witnessing how pathetic you look when you cry earlier, it's really hard to say—”
Aye!
Xiang Wan closed her eyes for a rest.
”Don't be so nice to me. I can't marry you…”
Fang Yuanyuan bantered with her, ”But I can marry you!”
Next, she took a bottle of gum from her bag, opened it, and passed it to Xiang Wan, who didn't want it. Fang Yuanyuan then took two drops of gum for herself.
”You don't need to feel bad about this. I didn't choose to go back purely because of you.”
Hmph! Xiang Wan snorted, ”I knew it.”
Fang Yuanyuan puffed a sigh. ”If I don't go back, not only would my mom kill me, my company will fire me!”
Fang Yuanyuan informed her colleagues and superiors about her situation in Xi City. Although her colleagues and superiors were understanding and that she still did her fair share of work remotely, it was still inappropriate for her if she didn't show up at her workplace for too long.
Xiang Wan gave her a sidelong glance. ”What about your Huanghuang?”
Fang Yuanyuan's face seemed a little down with the mention of Huang He.
”I have no choice. We have to be separated until he's fully recovered.”
After this, she paused for a moment and immediately showed a happy face.
”When he's fully recovered, we can register for our marriage. I actually have an important mission this time as well…”
Xiang Wan was puzzled. ”What is it?”
Fang Yuanyuan winked. ”Steal the household register booklet!”
Pffft! Xiang Wan cracked up when she heard that. ”You have so many tricks up your head! You're not afraid of being caught in the act?”
Fang Yuanyuan pouted. ”I can't register my marriage if I don't have that with me!”
”Who told you that?” Xiang Wan sat up straight and seemed livelier. ”You can get the household registration certificate instead. That's all you need, and it's so convenient! Moreover, you won't get caught.”
”How do I get that certificate?”
”Just bring along your identity card to the household registration office.”
Xiang Wan knew about this since she had worked in the Criminal Investigation Unit before.
Fang Yuanyuan was amazed to know that. ”Just like this?”
Xiang Wan nodded in certainty. ”Of course!”
”Wow! It's actually so simple to get married!”
Fang Yuanyuan was thrilled to know that and drew closer to Xiang Wan by holding her arm.
”Don't you think by telling me that you're actually encouraging me to 'commit a crime'? In future when my parents and youngest aunt knew about this and wanted to beat me up, you'll bear the consequences with me, you know?”
”Hurhur!” Xiang Wan seemed unperturbed. ”You think too much!”
…
The plane flew across the sky, leaving a trail of the white line behind it.
A person's emotions were really insignificant compared to the vast sky.
However, human beings were the most complex creatures in the world, and they couldn't free themselves from their complex and bizarre nature.
When Xiang Wan went to the Capital, she had gone there for the sake of Bai Muchuan. However, because of the 121 case, she hardly stayed in the Capital but was mostly in Nanmu and Xi City. Her break up with Bai Muchuan not only shocked Fang Yuanyuan, it was also the same for Xiang Wan's mom.
Of course, they also felt that it was a pity that things turned out this way.
There was also disappointment in them.
No matter which parent, if their daughter had a boyfriend like Bai Muchuan, they really couldn't find anything bad about him.
When Tan Yunchun fell ill, Bai Muchuan really helped out a lot. He chipped in money as well as pitched in the effort. There was nothing she could complain about him.
Tan Yunchun had been feeling glad and proud during this period in front of her friends and relatives that her daughter actually found someone who was such a good catch.
Even when she went out to get supplies and chatted with the neighbors, she felt as though she was being looked up to. She also talked in a more confident manner compared to her mild old self.
Those materialistic relatives of theirs only preferred her eldest sister and youngest sister. They only treated them as their relatives but not her. When they saw her, their smiles seemed too stiff. When they talked to each other in her presence, they would even reveal a sense of superiority before her.
In the past, Tan Yunchun had kept her mouth shut when these relatives came to visit.
There was hardly anyone they could consider wealthy among their relatives besides her youngest sister.
However, although their relatives were not wealthy, at least they were not in the same predicament as her and her daughter, who basically had nothing.
A turning point came ever since Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan became a couple, the news spread amongst their relatives.
They heard that Xiang Wan had found a boyfriend from the Capital whose father was a high-ranking official. They also heard that his boyfriend had more than one house registered under his name that Xiang Wan need not worry about her life anymore in future…
Some were envious while some were sarcastic.
Of course, there was always no lack of relatives who would flatter Tan Yunchun, but there were more who would mock and denigrate both the mother and daughter behind their back…
During this period, Tan Yunchun was bathed in these envious and jealous gazes, there were moments that she felt she was on cloud nine.
Now that she knew about this, she had suddenly fallen from heaven to hell. Frankly, she felt this was a little too much to bear.
