Chapter 392: See This Group of People Being Dumb On WeChat Moments
Although it was rather superstitious, it managed to convince Guan Liya. Most importantly, Ruan Danchen was Qi Youxuan’s biological mother. Just that alone left nothing much to be argued about.
“Yes, it’s about time to change the way she addresses.” Guan Liya said while smiling happily.
Ruan Danchen’s face filled with surprise, looked at Qi Zhongxun and Guan Liya’s gentle features, and obediently addressed them “Dad and Mom”.
“Danchen’s situation is different from an average family. We can’t have both families dine together. As for the proposal, what are you thoughts, Danchen?” Guan Liya asked.
Ruan Danchen felt that it did not matter so she spoke her mind. “The proposal doesn’t matter as I’m now alone. Anything is fine, no need to be troublesome.”
Qi Chenglin moved his hand over and held onto hers, smiling lightly: “I just want to be married with her sooner.”
“Useless.” Guan Liya did not know whether to cry or laugh. “Then you should quickly go get your marriage certificate. Today’s the fifth day of the new year. By the eight day the Civil Affairs Bureau should be open.”
“That quick?” Ruan Danchen unconsciously blurted. She did not think it was too fast, but more of shock due to the suddenness it was brought up.
“Not fast at all.” Qi Chenglin grabbed her hand. “I also want it to be official sooner.”
With that those issues were settled. As for the wedding, Qi Chenglin wanted it as soon as possible. Ruan Danchen also suggested that it did not have to be so grand.
Despite that, Grandmother Qi and Guan Liya still thought that it would be better to make it grand. Although there is no need to go out of the way, it still needed to show how much importance the Qi family treated this. Otherwise, outsiders may think that the Qi family did not like Ruan Danchen.
Ruan Danchen thought about it, agreed as well and left the rest up to Grandmother Qi and Guan Liya to manage.
Grandmother Qi and Guan Liya flipped through the chinese calendar and marked a few dates that they liked before approaching Dynasty for the appointment. There were many things to plan for a wedding and they cannot be rushed.
Qi Chenglin overheard Grandmother Qi and Guan Liya muttering: “I think we should do it on the latter half of the year. That way more preparations can be done.”
“Grandma, that’s way too late. Can it be earlier?” Qi Chenglin said.
“You rugrat. Wedding is an important issue. Everything has to be considered and well taken care of. It would take us at least half a year to prepare.”
“Half a year is too long. It’s not like we don’t have enough people. Just leave it to the wedding planners to deal with it. More people should increase the efficiency.” Qi Chenglin said.
“Tch.” Grandmother Qi pouted. “The wedding is just a ceremony. You are both getting registered soon anyway, why rush the wedding?”
“I just want to let everyone know I am married earlier. Just getting the certificate is not conspicuous enough.” Qi Chenglin said matter-of-factly.
Ruan Danchen: “…”
“Then why don’t you publish a notice in the newspaper first?” Grandfather Qi did not take him seriously and just took a random jab in return.
Unexpectedly, Qi Chenglin nodded. “After the registration I will give Xiao Yunqing a call and have them publish it on the newspaper for me.”
Grandfather Qi: “…”
Just as Grandfather Qi’s eyes were twitching, wanting to lecture him, little Qi Youxuan joined: “I also want everybody to know I have a mother now.”
Hearing that, Grandmother Qi finally decided to push the wedding date as early as possible.
The night, Grandmother Qi was overjoyed, and that joy brought along great appetite.
They ordered quite a bit of food earlier and had yet to finish them, but Grandmother Qi could not get enough and wanted to try more flavors.
“Xiao Yan, do you serve any kebab here? I want those roasted over charcoal.” Grandmother Qi looked at Yan Beicheng, smiling.
Yan Beicheng: “…”
Red Roof Club is a high class establishment. Where to find kebab roasted over charcoal?!
If the club members were inundated with the smell of charcoal roasted kebabs as they arrive, and then seeing Red Roof Club’s chef standing over the grill, holding onto a fan fanning at the kebabs, just what kind of image would that be?
However, when faced with Grandmother Qi’s smiling face filled with anticipation, Yan Beicheng could only call on the waiters and have them rush to the nearest shops to get some kebabs.
The waiters rushed at top speed to bring back some kebabs and reheated them. Grandmother Qi was totally satisfied.
…
…
When they got back to Prestige Residences at night, Qi Youxuan was still filled with excitement. Dad and Mom are finally getting married. Even though these words sounded derogatory when spoken out loud, it did not matter. He did not mind.
Jumping around, he could not sleep. He kept thinking of the word his dad said to his mom when proposing, especially the part where he said it was to give them father and son a family!
Thinking about it made Qi Youxuan laugh with happiness.
After entering, he did not take off his clothes or hat and straight away started rolling around on the carpet.
“So happy so happy so happy! From now on we are a real family!” Qi Youxuan happily rolled left and right.
Ruan Danchen did not know whether to cry or laugh looking at this little boy being so excited. She understood why he was being so happy, but also because of that, her heart felt slightly bitter.
She bent over and took off his hat and scarf. Seeing how tired Qi Youxuan was from all that rolling about and breathing heavily on the floor, she helped him up, took off his jacket, and then carried him upstairs to his room.
Qi Youxuan was carried to his bed. On his bed, he continued to roll around again. His little face flushed red and his eyes gleaming brightly.
“My Dad and Mom are getting married, I’m a child with Dad and Mom now!” Qi Youxuan continued rolling as he kept muttering the same thing.
Ruan Danchen could not help but smile as she took his pajamas out from the closet. “Yes, from now on we all have a complete family. Get up now, let mommy help you change your clothes.”
Upon hearing those words, Qi Youxuan jumped up from the bed as if injected with chicken blood, quietly stood in front of Ruan Danchen in an especially well behaved manner.
His head was filled with Ruan Danchen’s words: ‘Let mommy help you change your clothes.’
Following that, he started to smile stupidly, ruminating on the sound of those words, so sweet and filled with happiness.
After changing Qi Youxuan’s clothes, she ushered him to the washroom to wash up. Looking at him as he rubbed his face with lotion, then climbing up on the bed. At that moment, Qi Chenglin came in.
He was already in his pajamas, saw that Ruan Danchen have not returned, so he came looking for her.
“Why are you still up?” Qi Chenglin looked at his son, seeing his face filled with energy, did not look sleepy at all.
“I can’t sleep.” Qi Youxuan hugged his pillow, looked at his father, then his mother. The happiness he felt at that moment could not be described with the vocabulary that he learnt as a first grader.
“Dad, Mom, when you go get your marriage certificate, can you bring me along?” Qi Youxuan asked in full anticipation.
“You need to go for piano lesson.” Qi Chenglin firmly rejected.
“But I want to see you get your certificate.” Qi Youxuan pouted.
During dinner, he specifically asked Grandma and found out that to be married, one needs to first obtain a marriage certificate. That was why little Qi Youxuan longed to witness that historical moment.
“To obtain the certificate, we have to wait in line. It’s not good if you skip class for this matter.” Ruan Danchen explained gently. “After you come back from school you can look at our marriage certificate, okay?”
Qi Youxuan pouted his small mouth, obviously unsatisfied. “Mom, this is just like me wanting to eat sweet and sour ribs, but you both show me the bone after you finish eating your ribs.”
Ruan Danchen: “…”
Ruan Danchen understood Qi Youxuan’s meaning, and because of that understanding, she caved, turning her head around to look at Qi Chenglin. Just as she wanted to discuss it with him if they should let Qi Youxuan apply for a half day leave, she was cut off by Qi Chenglin’s righteous rejection.
“If you behave yourself, I’ll let you be the page boy during the wedding ceremony.” Qi Chenglin said. “And that’s alongside Muran.”
Qi Youxuan tutted. “I’ve been a page boy before.”
His craving to personally witness them obtain their marriage certificate had trumped over Little Muran.
Qi Chenglin realized, his son did seem like he was on the way to becoming a professional page boy.
“That was for your aunties, but this time it’s for your daddy and mommy. It’s not the same.” Qi Chenglin persuaded.
Qi Youxuan struggled with the decision. Qi Chenglin was doing this because of his good behaviour that night. He was cooperative, and also the fact that the child was pitiable as he had always craved for a complete family with father and mother. Otherwise, he would have just ignored him.
“So do you agree or not?” Qi Chenglin hurried him.
Qi Youxuan sat on the be unwillingly, twisting his hips. His head lowered, not giving a clear answer of yes or no.
Ruan Danchen’s felt pained. The more she thought of how happy he was earlier that night, the more it hurt her.
“What about this, when we queue up to get the certificate, we will record the entire process on the phone for you to watch when you’re back.” Ruan Danchen suggested.
Qi Youxuan’s little brows frowned, then glanced at Qi Chenglin, knowing full well that his father will never let him take leave to watch them get the certificate. Not daring to ask for more, he could only nod his head slowly, looking extremely miserable.
“Then you need to record it from the moment you start queuing up. Remember to talk to the screen, just like you’re talking to me.” Qi Youxuan said.
“Yes, sure.” Ruan Danchen’s heart was greatly pained seeing how disappointed this little guy was. However, she also understood that Qi Chenglin was doing this for his benefit, not wanting him to simply take a leave of absence.
If this exception was made, then Qi Youxuan may start to think of taking a leave over every small issue. That was not good for his development.
However, Ruan Danchen still felt sorry for him and hugged him tight in her bosom. “Getting the certificate is not that exciting. It’s nothing compared to the wedding. You attending another person’s wedding is very different from attending daddy and mommy’s wedding. You can go ask, how many children can see their own daddy and mommy host a wedding? For an average child, they were not even born yet when their daddy and mommy host a wedding.”
Upon hearing it, the little guy thought it made sense and his mood finally improved.
“Go sleep now.” Ruan Danchen ushered him to lie down on the bed and tucked him in.
With the blanket covered up to his chin, leaving only a tiny, round head, he looked especially cute.
Right at that moment, Wei Ran called. Ruan Danchen picked up the call, found out that Wei Ziqi wanted to make use of their holiday time and bring the two kids along with Wei Ran to the amusement park, asking if they wanted to join.
Ruan Danchen relayed the message to the father and son duo.
“I want to go!” Qi Youxuan’s eyes opened wide, gleaming with anticipation.
Qi Chenglin was thinking of resting at home, but Ruan Danchen heard Qi Youxuan saying: “I have not been to an amusement park before.”
Dad was busy in the past, how would he be free to bring him there.
Ruan Danchen was already feeling guilty for not being able to fulfill that little guy’s wish that night. Now that she heard this, she gently pulled at Qi Chenglin’s arms. “Let’s go together?”
With that Qi Chenglin finally nodded. Ruan Danchen immediately replied Wei Ran and set the time to meet them at the amusement park entrance the following morning.
After ending the call, Qi Chenglin told Qi Youxuan: “If you want to go, then you should sleep soon. We have to get up early tomorrow.”
Qi Youxuan quickly said goodnight and shut his eyes tight.
Ruan Danchen bent over and gave him a kiss, then followed Qi Chenglin back to the bedroom.
…
…
After showering and packing, Ruan Danchen went back to bed with her phone. She pulled Qi Chenglin’s right hand over without saying anything, her left hand and his right hand’s grip crossed, her slender and delicate fingers crossing between the gaps of his fingers, their digits clasped together.
Between his long elegant fingers, the engagement ring that he put on her middle finger was nicely shown through. Looking at their hands firmly held together, Ruan Danchen could not get enough of it.
At that moment, her phone notification rang. It was a WeChat notification. Ruan Danchen did not release his right hand. While holding hands, her own right hand that was free grabbed the phone and unlocked the screen. Unfortunately the phone screen was too big for her thumb to swipe through.
Without her saying anything, Qi Chenglin’s moved his index finger over to help her tap open the WeChat app. She thought it might be the 8by8group members were being too free again, followed by her opening her own WeChat account.
What she found out was, the 8by8group was deadly quiet. Nobody was chatting.
Qi Chenglin moved closer in surprise, and looked at Ruan Danchen’s phone. It was someone sending her a friend request. The request came with Chen Libai written on the remark section.
Ruan Danchen did not need to raise her head to know that Qi Chenglin was watching. She did not speak, but only question him with a look, accept or not?
Qi Chenglin snorted, without even trying to hide the jealousy from showing on his face at all, yet he raised his brows, his thin lips cynically twitching. “Accept, why not. Quickly accept it.”
“…” Ruan Danchen lowered her head, quietly rejected.
On the side, Qi Chenglin’s lips hooked up, yet he managed to hold it in immediately.
After a short while, another friend request was sent over. This time, it asked: “I am Chen Libai, did your hand slip earlier?”
Ruan Danchen: “…”
Just as she wanted to reject it, her phone was taken by Qi Chenglin. At first she thought it was him tired of waiting for her slow actions and wanted to reject him himself, but Qi Chenglin unexpectedly hit accept.
After accepting, he did not return the phone to her, but just raised his eyebrows at her, said with an insincere smile: “I was really asking you to accept it, not being sarcastic. You really think I’m that petty?”
Ruan Danchen: “…”
Did he really thought she was stupid enough to not identify the sarcasm in his tone? She would be really stupid if she believed what he said!
However, now that Qi Chenglin is putting on such a face of unwillingness, Ruan Danchen dared not ask for her phone back. Otherwise who knows what kind of petty stuff he will nag her with later.
She could already imagine him saying: “Are you in such a hurry to chat with him?”
Even his tone and facial expression can be predicted.
She wanted to see, just what will he do with her phone.
Before Qi Chenglin could do anything on her phone, Chen Libai had already sent a message over. “You there? What are you doing?”
Qi Chenglin raised his brows, the corner of his lips twitched and said: “I’m with my boyfriend on the bed now.”
Ruan Danchen: “…”
She stared at him, not knowing what to say. Qi Chenglin was telling the truth, that was something she could not argue with.
As expected, the other end went quiet for a good couple of minutes without any replies.
However, Qi Chenglin was not done yet. Since the other side was not responding, he send Chen Libai another message: “We’re going to bed now. Goodnight.”
Having sent the message, Qi Chenglin turned around to look at her. “How was it?”
“What ‘how was it’? Wasn’t it just you chatting with him?” Ruan Danchen laughed, although those two messages that he sent was so embarrassing that she does not know how to face others.
Even though it she was unlikely to run into Chen Libai in the future, but if they do meet each other, she will be too embarrassed to raise her head. Despite that, she still let Qi Chenglin send those shameless replies.
“If he still comes looking for you in the future, you don’t reply. Let me know and I’ll reply in your stead.” Qi Chenglin said, felt that hiding behind Ruan Danchen’s account to face off his rival in love was rather interesting.
Ruan Danchen did not bother to fight with him over this and just obediently answered “yes” while nodding her blushing face.
Qi Chenglin stared at that lovely and innocent face, seeing how she did not make a fuss and let him do as he pleases, totally fine with what he had done. This time all his thoughts were on their hands, focusing on the engagement ring, feeling joyful.
With that, the disgust he felt from Chen Libai earlier vanished, lowered his head looking at her happy face, feeling joyful himself.
He thought for a moment, held onto Ruan Danchen’s hand and took a picture of their hand holding with fingers crossed, then started poking away at the screen.
Later, he posted it onto his WeChat Moments, captioned it with: I do.
The end was followed by a kissing emoji.
Ruan Danchen poked her head over to look, realized that he was really artistic. After applying some filters, it looked as though it was taken by some professional photographer. Those that did not know might even think this was some stock photo from the internet.
Qi Chenglin immediately grabbed his own phone and gave Ruan Danchen’s post a like, followed with a flower and bride emoji.
After posting, he still mumbled in dissatisfaction: “Too bad the WeChat Moments can only be seen by friends.”
Ruan Dan stared at him. Was it not enough to have your friend see it?
Qi Chenglin was of a mind to post it onto Weibo to show off, but after thinking about it, the internet is filled with all sorts of people. If some busybody decided to dig up Ruan Danchen’s identity, that would be harmful for her. With that he gave up the notion.
In a short while, underneath Ruan Danchen’s photo was plenty of replies, all of them congratulatory.
Ruan Danchen has also added her coworker from the design department, with someone commenting: “The general manager proposed? That’s wonderful!”
Qi Chenglin was happy, took note of that ID and decided, if this person were to make a mistake in the future, he will forgive her once.
Following, the design department and other coworkers also said their blessings, none of them posted any salty comments. This made Qi Chenglin very happy and he decided to increase the year end bonus for the design department.
He switched to his left hand to hold onto Ruan Danchen’s hand. His right index finger nimbly poked away at the screen, replying all the comments and thanking them for their blessings.
At the end of each reply was a dash, signed Qi Chenglin.
Ruan Danchen’s circle of friends was not wide, mostly school friends and coworkers. Other than that would be Yan Beicheng and that gang.
Her friends have not heard of Qi Chenglin’s name, and even those that heard of it before did not relate it to the Qi family. The big families were too high and mighty afterall. Just like how a lady shares with her sisters about the boyfriend she was dating was similar to a celebrity’s name, nobody would think that she was really dating a celebrity.
That was why most of her school friends did not think much about it. Her colleague from Chengshi who knew about her relationship with Qi Chenglin however, were surprised over the attention they got from Qi Chenglin’s reply. Of course, it was more fear than a pleasant surprise.
As for the design department, it was an entirely different story. Everyone was seemingly crazy. Ruan Danchen had attached a memo of their name to each account. Manager Zou was all but calm in his reply: “General manager, it is a great honor to have your personal reply.”
Chen Siyu was even worse: “Ahhhhhh, it’s the general manager! Hello general manager! See you again general manager!”
Senior Du: “General manager, your relationship with Danchen is so eviable!”
Zhang Xutong had left an earlier message: “Wishing our general manager and Mrs. a harmonious union lasting a hundred years, to be as one for eternity.”
This comment had fully captured Qi Chenglin’s heart, resulting in a longer reply from him: “Thank you for your blessings young man. You have good visions. – Qi Chenglin.”
Zhang Xutong: “That’s all because of our general manager’s wonderful guidance! I have always looked up to you as my role model!”
Manager Zou saw that his favored subordinate doing so well at polishing apples, he felt worried. He regretted for not thinking of saying such words.
Zhang Yuefei: “The general manager is sharing account with Ruan Danchen now, so sweet! General manager you are so cute!”
Those words greatly improved Qi Chenglin’s mood, so he got off the bed.
“Where are you going?” Ruan Danchen asked out of curiosity.
“I’m in a good mood, gonna go get a bottle of red wine.” Qi Chenglin said, still holding on to her phone.
“If you’re going to get red wine then leave my phone here.” Ruan Danchen said, felt that it would be inconvenient for him to hold onto the wine bottle and wine glass while holding onto a phone.
“I still need to reply those words of blessings.” Qi Chenglin replied, then lowered his head and continued replying to the comments, not missing a single one out.
Ruan Danchen: “…”
This person…using her account to reply so passionately, is that a good thing?
Qi Chenglin went downstairs to get wine, leaving Ruan Danchen to be bored by herself. She stretched her arms and reached for Qi Chenglin’s phone. Between Qi Chenglin and her, there were never any privacy to speak of. Qi Chenglin had never hidden anything from her.
Other guys were afraid of their wife or girlfriend looking through their phone, but Qi Chenglin instead pushes his phone for her to play with. Rather, it was usually Ruan Danchen that returned the phone to him after unlocking the phone and found that there were no games at all.
Ruan Danchen took his phone and got into WeChat. Qi Chenglin’s friends on WeChat was even fewer than hers, only Yan Beicheng and the gang. The Eight Great Families’ members were not that close to him. Apart from them, Jiang Yuan was also friends with Qi Chenglin. Ruan Danchen was not surprised to see that.
Yan Beicheng and the gang was not friends with Ruan Danchen’s school friends and coworkers, so they did not see Qi Chenglin’s shameless replies, but only saw him liking the post, the emoji he commented, and Jiang Yuan’s blessings.
Yan Beicheng and the gang did not forget to take a few jabs while giving their blessings.
Yan Beicheng: Little Sister Ruan, you’ve taken after Qi Chenglin’s bad habits, developing the love to publicly display your affections.
Softie replied to Yan Beicheng: I dare you to find a wife and publicly display your affections in front of us.
Han Zhuoli: That’s right, so conspicuous. Qi Chenglin haven’t even said anything, yet you’ve shared the news so quickly. If you let him know you want to marry him that badly, be careful that he keeps you pressed down in the future.
Softie replied to Han Zhuoli: I press on him every night, and occasionally he presses himself on me too.
Gui Zhiqian: Little Sister Ruan, if you want to post something like that, you should have Qi Chenglin post it first.
Softie replied to Gui Zhiqian: I posted it to whom?
Wei Ziqi: Then again, Qi Chenglin’s WeChat has barely any friends. Even if you posted not many people would see it.
Softie replied to Wei Ziqi: I’m willing to post it again for you to see.
Wei Zilin: It’s only us few right? Even if you don’t post it we will know.
Softie replied to Wei Zilin: I’m willing to post it again.
Chu Zhaoyang: Other than Qi Chenglin, everyone above is right.
Softie replied to Chu Zhaoyang: Scram scram scram scram scram scram scram! (Get the hell out of here!)
Yan Beicheng: F*ck, Qi Chenglin you swapped accounts with Little Sister Ruan! Is it because you will die if you both don’t show off your love?
Han Zhuoli: Heheh, Qi Chenglin you shameless person. Not only did you use Little Sister Ruan’s account to play here, you had to go gad a dash and sign your name.
After a while, Ruan Danchen refreshed again to see Han Zhuoli posted a few screenshots. They were screenshots of Qi Chenglin using Ruan Danchen’s account to reply comments.
With Yan Beicheng taking the lead, all the way to the end, they all spammed the same words: Shameless!
After that, Ruan Danchen saw her own name appear again.
Softie: How did you find out?
Han Zhuoli replied to Softie: Jiang Yuan sent them!
Softie: I’m deducting Jiang Yuan’s salary when I get back.
Yan Beicheng: You should quickly change back to your own account. Looking at Little Sister Ruan’s name followed by some wild statements, I feel out of character.
Jiang Yuan replied to Softie: General manager, forgive me!
Ruan Danchen: “…”
She watched as her own account shamelessly replied one after another, experiencing an unexplainable weird feeling. She was feeling even more out of character!
Seeing that Qi Chenglin have not returned after such a long time while her account was actively replying messages, She knew that man must be downstairs replying messages excitedly.
Ruan Danchen did not know whether to cry or laugh. She decided to personally get him downstairs. However, midway down the stairs, she saw Qi Chenglin holding the red wine under his arm, with his bony, long fingers hooking on to two wine glasses, lowering his head and messaging on the phone with extreme speed. Ruan Danchen thought that Qi Chenglin, Yan Beicheng and the gang was going to chat on WeChat Moments as though it was on their chat group.
Ruan Danchen came down, took over the red wind and wine glasses. Laughing inside on how this man could sometimes behave just like a kid. So rebellious.
Exactly that moment, Qi Chenglin raised his head, with a face full of pride, and smiled at her. That smile left her at a loss for words.
Returning to the bedroom Qi Chenglin finally swapped their phones back. Ruan Danchen grabber her own phone, opened up WeChat Moments to find a new message notification. This time it was from the silent Qi Chengzhi.
Earlier, Qi Chengzhi was feeding milk to Little Youjin, changed his diapers, and coaxed him to sleep. Finally managed to comfortably lie in bed together, heads touching.
Then he went on WeChat, just to see this group of people being dumb on WeChat Moments.
