82 A Turn For The Better

Their wedding photos, she wished she had something better, more traditional and not her all plastered after work, but they were still nice.. Chang smiled and touched the photos.

On the right was the marriage certificate signed by both of them. Liang Jian Amal written out beautifully and Dumont Chang Xie in a looping messy scrawl. As well as the certificate there was a permission document for marriage from the US embassy in Shanghai. Chang looked at that confused.

"You know it wasn't that simple to marry you, I had to grease more than a few palms to be able to marry you in one night as we are from different countries." Jian explained and held his hands out in a carefree manner shaking his head as he sighed.

Chang looked at her ring and the wedding photos under her hand and smiled in reverie.

"Thank you." she said in a voice as small as a mosquito.

"Hmm, what was that? I couldn't hear you." He leaned closer and cupped a hand to his ear.

Chang leaned forward and grabbed his collar with an iron grip and sealed his irritating distracting mouth with hers. When she released him she whispered in his ear

"I said thank you Jian."

"He looked at her astonished and grinned at her. "Why Mrs. Liang are you trying to seduce your husband?"

"Absolutely not!" She denied fiercely slinking back into the water showing only her head and eyes above the edge.

"Why not I wouldn't be opposed to it."

"Yeah, uh huh, I sure you wouldn't." She muttered.

Jian chuckled and gave a peck to the top of her bird nest hair. he grabbed her marriage book so that it wouldn't get wet and left her to bathe in peace. Chang sat there for a moment and placed both hands on top of her head where he had kissed her.
