Mu Li knew if he didn"t say something, Lin Qing would always keep silent. So he asked her in the elevator, "Do you bring all the materials required?"
Lin Qing showed him the ID card and booklet carelessly. "My mother prepared them for me yesterday."
Being aware of her indifference to their marriage, Mu Li became quiet.
They got on the car and drove to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
They did not talk to each other anymore in the car. Mu Li seemed engaged in driving while Lin Qing looked out the window all the time.
During the process of registration, Lin Qing noticed that Mu Li submitted something like a marriage application form. She didn"t pay much attention to it and left with Mu Li after obtaining the marriage licenses.
"I will drive you home." said Mu Li.
On hearing this, Lin Qing felt relieved and nodded at once.
"I haven "t finished yet."
Mu Li couldn"t tell whether he was angry or helpless, "What are you nodding for?"
"Well, didn"t you just say to take me home?"
Lin Qing was confused.
"Yes, I said."
Then Mu Li looked at her and finished his sentence word by word, "I will drive you home because you have something to do there."
"What?"
Lin Qing was even more confused.
"Pack your luggage and move into my house."
Mu Li spoke quite normally, "Lin Qing, we"re married."
Lin Qing looked at the marriage license in her hand and lowered her head. "Well, I know. "
She said it in an apparently depressed tone, which irritated Mu Li at once. However, he managed to stay calm and became even more gentle to her. "Get on the car."
The truth was that Mu Li seldom spoke gently to any female. He always spoke with no emotion. If Lin Qing knew the truth, she should feel flattered.
However, Lin Qing knew nothing of it.
She felt strange about his extraordinary gentleness and looked up into his deep eyes.
"Oh."
She took this as a response to his gentleness and got on the car.
Mu Li stood beside the car, watching her back with a meaningful look.
When would this girl demonstrate any explicit emotions? He suddenly got a strong curiosity.
Lin Qing was ignorant of Mu Li"s thoughts. She was neither that obedient nor very resistant to him.
And the tranquility deep in her eyes aroused his desire to probe further into her heart.
A smile rose from the corner of his eyes when Mu Li thought of this.
Lin Qing ran to her bed at once when back home. She was stopped by the voice at the door.
"Is Lin Qing back? Why did she go back to her room without a word?"
It was her mother, speaking in a low voice.
"Maybe she is tired. Let her have some rest."
Her father replied, also in a low voice, probably unwilling to be heard.
But they were both heard by Lin Qing.
She fixed her eyes somewhere in the room, but she looked as if she was wandering, rather than looking at something.
Half a minute later, she raised her hand with the marriage license and looked at the red booklet.
The booklet reminded her of Mu Li"s words before she got off the car.
"You have 10 minutes to pack up."
Well, Mu Li was still waiting for her.
Thinking of this, she got up a little and found that three to four minutes had pa.s.sed. So, she took out her suitcase immediately and started parking her luggage as soon as possible.
Actually, she didn"t have much to bring, just some clothes and frequently used items. When she finished packing, the suitcase wasn"t full.
Before leave, she remembered the marriage license was still on the dress table and put it at the bottom of the suitcase.
If they had a divorce in the future, it would be inconvenient to come back for it.
It"s better to take it with her.
Mu Li had better know nothing about the reason why she took the license. Otherwise, he may get mad.
