"Why?" Charlie frowned.
The staff member said with certainty, "The procedures are not complete. We can't do it. Please go back and get all the materials!"
"It's impossible!" Charlie's face darkened.
Wendy, who was next to him, bit her lip. Although she had not check the file cover, she absolutely believed that Charlie had prepared all the materials. Both of them were looking forward to this day, so they couldn't have made any mistakes on this kind of thing.
Being swept by his gloomy eyes, the staff members' backs tightened and they only gave a good explanation. "Sir, according to the relevant regulations, the divorce procedures and the marriage registration have to be registered here. And the marriage certificate needs to be confiscated, sand then withdrew. The material you handed in lacks marriage certificates, so I really can't help you!"
Both of them froze.
Wendy licked her lips and braced herself to say weakly, "Uh, I'm sorry, we're here to register our marriage..."
"Marriage registration?" The staff was surprised and confused. "Then why did you come here? Marriage registration on the other side!"
Wendy looked back, and sure enough, the sign hanging on the door said that it was for divorce...
Charlie walked out of the office stiffly. He cleared his throat in embarrassment and said, "Ahem, I'm a little nervous."
Wendy burst into laughter. For the big boss who was in charge of the entire Hogg's Group, he had been faced with all kinds of big and small events in the business field for a long time. Even if he was trapped in the business frame before, he could still stay calm, which was probably the only tense moment in his life.
However, after such a joke, she was relieved a lot.
This time, they went to the other side to line up, calmly waited to be called, and then went in to handle it.
The staff went through all the procedures. They first checked the household register and identity cards, then took out a " fill- in- law marriage registration slipbook" and asked them to sign the fingerprints in the signature column respectively.
When it came to the last step, the staff asked cautiously with a smile, "Are you two willing to get married?"
Wendy and Charlie looked at each other and nodded.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
As soon as the staff got the answer, she raised her hand and made two printed steel marks with two bangs, asking them to pay ninety-nine cents nominal fee in exchange for two brand- new marriage certificates. When opened, they smiled for the camera in the same freshly baked red-backed photo.
This was Charlie's first time taking photos with a smile on his face. Upon closer inspection, it can be noticed that the corner of Charlie's lips were slightly stiff from nervousness.
In the enclosed room in front of the corridor, they stood on the stage with marriage certificates in their hands. The staff sent each of them a small red card and enthusiastically directed them to read the letters on the card.
The voice of the newcomer echoed in the room for a long time.
"We are willing to marry. From today on, we will shoulder the marriage with each other and give us our duties and obligations. Care for our parents and children, trust each other, forgive each other, take care of each other, and love each other for the rest of our lives..."
Coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the warm breeze blew on Wendy's face. Wendy's heart was like in a storm, as if she was in a dream. Beside her, Charlie's deep eyes were fixed on the marriage certificate, which was the only reality in her dream.
"Happy marriage."
She felt his thin lips against her ear.
Wendy's white cheeks turned red. She leaned against his chest with her heart full and hot, but her nose was a little sour. She raised her face and called him softly and dreamily, "Honey!"
