My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty-Chapter 281: How Did I Not Make It?

To see the future Third Sister-in-law in such a panic, it must be serious!

Tang Chuxia and the Tang Family all stood up, and Tang Chuxia helped the future third sister-in-law to sit down.

The future third sister-in-law’s complexion was still somewhat pale. After sitting down, she gulped down a cup of tea. Usually so concerned about her image, she no longer cared at the moment.

Tang Chuxia was particularly anxious but dared not rush the third sister-in-law.

"I intended to call your Third Brother midway to discuss my return plans, but I couldn’t reach him. Luckily, a friend answered the phone and told me your Third Brother had disappeared!"

The future third sister-in-law was not joking; her face was filled with urgency.

Tang Chuxia thought, "Third Sister-in-law, are you sure Third Brother has disappeared? However, my mom received a call from my brother, instructing me to definitely get the marriage certificate tomorrow!"

The future third sister-in-law gasped, clearly not expecting this.

She knew Tang Jianzheng was not one to speak nonsense and was even clearer that he always took cautious actions, definitely not the type to invite criticism.

"Marry! Then you should marry quickly!" The future third sister-in-law had absolute trust in Third Brother Tang; since Tang Jianzheng had said it, she believed him.

Tang Chuxia smiled bitterly, "Third Sister-in-law, who am I to marry? Moreover, finding someone randomly to marry, can that really solve the issue my Third Brother is concerned about?"

The future third sister-in-law shook her head, "You don’t understand. Your Third Brother risking danger to call home proves that this person is very significant, likely someone neither your Third Brother nor I can contend with."

This was not a joke.

Third Brother Tang was very formidable, but his family background was a bit lacking.

The third sister-in-law’s family background was strong, but there were still some entities that even their kind of families dared not confront!

"It looks like your marriage with Gu Beihuai might not happen. I will arrange someone with a decent family background who can also get the marriage certificate processed."

As she spoke, the third sister-in-law was about to go to the study to make a call.

"Why am I not suitable?"

Gu Beihuai ran in from outside; he might have been anxious as his forehead was sweaty.

The third sister-in-law, not expecting Gu Beihuai to come over, hurriedly said, "You’re a soldier, remember? Not only do you need to submit an application to marry, but the key is that approval will take time, and Xiaxia cannot wait!"

She definitely wouldn’t allow Tang Jianjun to worry, so matters that could be settled must be resolved before they even arose.

Gu Beihuai looked at Tang Chuxia and asked, "What do you think?"

Tang Chuxia shrugged, "Third Brother is probably not acting recklessly!"

This meant she couldn’t possibly go against her family’s wishes, dragging the situation out.

Gu Beihuai, gritting his teeth and pointing at Tang Chuxia, suddenly grabbed her wrist and dragged her outside.

The Tang Family all stood in front of Gu Beihuai, "What are you doing?"

Gu Beihuai shouted, "I’ve been discharged!"

The Tang Family were stunned.

"Let’s go and handle the paperwork now, exceptional circumstances call for exceptional measures, get the certification now, tomorrow we register the marriage!"

Gu Beihuai’s words even made Tang Jianjun admire him.

"You’re noble, sacrificing so much for Xiaxia’s happiness."

Tang Jianjun assumed Gu Beihuai had discharged for the sake of marrying Tang Chuxia, but he still patted Gu Beihuai’s shoulder, "Alright, let’s not make Xiaxia marry you in a rush. Even if you apply for discharge now, it still requires time to process the papers; it simply won’t be soon enough!"

Everyone was in the military, so they all understood the process.

Gu Beihuai said grumpily, "I had already been discharged! I just hadn’t told the family, and planned to talk about it after the New Year’s!"

How else would he have started his security company?

Now, as a civilian, Gu Beihuai only needed an endorsement from the local street office to get a marriage certificate, without needing to file any additional applications.

Tang Jianjun’s eyes widened in shock. He couldn’t believe that Beihuai would be discharged. How could the Gu Family allow that?

But before he could ask, Beihuai had already pulled Tang Chuxia out of the house.

Tang Chuxia let him drag her to find Auntie Fatty. They first stopped at a small shop to buy some gifts, since it was the New Year’s period and they wanted to respectfully ask Auntie Fatty for a certificate.

"I will ask Auntie Fatty to backdate it, so there won’t be any problems with the marriage certificate!" Gu Beihuai said. Not hearing a response from Tang Chuxia, he turned to seek her opinion, only to be met with her complex expression.

"What’s with that expression?"

Gu Beihuai was somewhat suspicious that Tang Chuxia was still cursing him inwardly.

Tang Chuxia chuckled dryly, "I was just curious about how you got here so quickly?" She remembered that Wu Haipeng’s house was still some distance from hers, and even if Gu Nanzhi ran, she couldn’t have arrived that quickly.

Gu Beihuai just let out an "oh." "I ran into Zhizhi on my way home, heard about it, and went to find you!"

That explanation could make sense. Tang Chuxia then asked seriously, "Tell me the truth, you won’t regret marrying me?"

Gu Beihuai’s steps faltered a bit but he quickly regained his composure.

"Why? Are you afraid I’ll regret it?" ƒгeewebnovёl_com

Tang Chuxia shook her head, "It’s not that I’m afraid you’ll regret it, but you should understand the consequences of marriage. Don’t come asking me for compensation later—I have none!"

Gu Beihuai snorted, "You really do think!"

"After we get the certificate, I will go ask my cousin’s father; since Third Brother could call, there must not be any big issues right now," his words reassured Tang Chuxia.

"I think so too. If third sister-in-law can’t reach Third Brother, it must be because he’s currently unable to communicate with the outside world. I have confidence in him."

By the time they finished talking, they had arrived at Auntie Fatty’s doorstep. These days, many people were visiting to celebrate the New Year, and Auntie Fatty had guests. But after chatting with Beihuai and Chuxia, the other guests left.

"Tell me, what can’t you say in front of others?" Auntie Fatty looked at them, chuckling.

Tang Chuxia laughed heartily, taking Auntie Fatty’s arm, "Auntie, you’re brilliant, knew right away we came for a favor!"

Auntie Fatty, liking Tang Chuxia, teased her, "You little slicker, I watched you grow up. When I see your shifty eyes, I know there’s something up!"

Tang Chuxia stuck out her tongue, poked Gu Beihuai, and he straightforwardly stated their purpose.

Auntie Fatty, who had been sipping tea, choked.

"What? You two are getting married?"

Tang Chuxia patted Auntie Fatty’s back, really worried she might choke seriously, which would be terrible!

Gu Beihuai felt awkward. When they were children, Auntie Fatty had teased that they were a pair of ’perfect adversaries’ and might end up together. Beihuai had sworn it would never happen.

How long had it been since then?

Such a slap in the face.

And self-inflicted at that.

Auntie Fatty was quite emotional, recalling many past events. Just as she was about to go on, Tang Chuxia said to her, "Auntie, the factory I run is offering ten worker slots to our street, mainly for impoverished military wives. What do you think?"

Auntie Fatty slapped her thigh, "Marriage is such a wonderful event—I must write a proper certificate for you. I remember your mother asked me for one a month ago. I will add one for you two!"
