The next day, Qin Rong and Yu Lan came to the palace with betrothal gifts and proposed marriage to His Majesty.
His Majesty Caesar held a family banquet in the backyard of the palace. At the dinner, the parents of both parties hit it off and talked very happily. The wedding date was soon finalized—it was set for Valentine’s Day, February 14.
Before, the wedding of the princes had to be prepared for at least half a year. This time, it took only two months. The key was that they followed Luo Ning’s advice. Because Luo Ning thought that Qin Yize was a big star, and now was at the peak of his career at the age of 28, the wedding should not be made public. Luo Ning himself didn’t like too grand wedding banquets, so only relatives and friends were invited to the wedding banquet, and everything was kept simple.
Since it was a simple secret wedding, many links could be omitted, and it was more reasonable to set it on a commemorative day such as February 14.
After Christmas, the palace and the Qin family began to prepare for the wedding.
Since the wedding banquet of the eldest prince Luo Fei and Mo’s elder son Mo Han was used as a reference, the wedding preparations went very smoothly. The Qin family quickly prepared all the supplies according to the requirements of the royal family, and the wedding room was decorated according to Luo Ning’s preferences.
Qin Yize and Luo Ning, who were the protagonists, couldn’t be idle, of course, ordering dresses, buying wedding rings… There were a lot of things waiting for them to do. It happened that Qin Yize’s new drama wouldn’t start filming until the end of February. So, in January, he set aside a few days to accompany Luo Ning to complete “pre-marriage tasks”.
The dresses and diamond rings were all to be custom-made for the royal family by famous designers.
Qin Yize and Luo Ning went to give measurements for the clothes together. The designer praised them while measuring: “His Royal Highness and Mr. Qin really have the perfect height difference. If you stand together in these suits, you will definitely match well.”
Luo Ning’s head was right at Qin Yize’s chin, Luo Ning stretched out his hand to compare and said, “The height difference between us is really suitable, isn’t it Yize?”
Qin Yize smiled and said, “That’s right.”
After giving the measurements for the clothes, the two began to pick out the wedding ring. Luo Ning drew a pattern on the paper and said to the designer: “Since it’s a couple’s ring, the design should be simpler, the ring could be wider, and a small diamond may be placed in the middle, there is no need to be too exaggerated, the diamond should not be too big to wear. What do you think about this, Yize?”
Qin Yize lightly put his arms around Luo Ning’s shoulders and said, “It’s up to you to decide, as long as you like it.”
Luo Ning nodded: “Then use this style.”
The designer and the captain of the Royal Guard who accompanied him were almost blinded by their “show of affection”.
After finishing all this, Qin Yize sent Luo Ning back to the palace, and said “goodbye” at the gate of the palace.
Luo Ning said: “I heard that you are going to shoot a new drama at the end of February. Are you busy recently?”
Qin Yize said, “It doesn’t matter. No matter how busy I am, I will definitely make time for you and to prepare for the wedding.”
Luo Ning said: “Fortunately, we don’t have much to do.”
The two were talking when a laughing voice suddenly came in their ears: “You still have one important thing to do.”
Luo Ning’s back froze slightly at the voice of his father, Qin Yize immediately turned around and saluted: “Your Majesty.”
Caesar smiled meaningfully: “The wedding ring is all set, right? How about going to collect the certificate tomorrow?”
Luo Ning: “…”
Qin Yize: “…”
Caesar turned his head to look at Qin Yize: “What? Can’t you find time tomorrow?”
Qin Yize had to bite the bullet and say, “Yes, I will be on time tomorrow.”
After His Majesty left, Qin Yize lowered his voice and whispered in Luo Ning’s ear: “Why is His Majesty rushing us to get the certificate?”
Luo Ning couldn’t help but want to laugh as well as cry: “He is probably afraid that we will change our minds. It doesn’t matter, it will be over sooner or later. At this stage, early death and early rebirth.”
Qin Yize said: “…”
Early death and early birth? Getting a marriage certificate, being described like this, was unprecedented.
….
The next day, under His Majesty’s arrangement, the two went to collect the certificate together.
The Imperial Marriage Registry had a strict secrecy system. In addition, His Majesty had greeted them in advance. Today, the Marriage Registry had secretly opened a channel for them to do pre-marital inspection and information registration. The one in charge of the registration was Kelly, an old employee here, who had also handed out His Majesty’s marriage certificate back then.
Seeing the two young people in front of her, Kelly smiled gently and said, “With this marriage certificate, you two are legal partners. You have to think carefully before signing. You can’t go back once you sign.”
Luo Ning and Qin Yize looked at each other.
Even if they were more involved in their usual performances, but on this solemn occasion, the two of them still felt a little awkward.
The meaning of this thin marriage certificate was not as simple as they thought.
His Majesty Caesar went through a lot of hardships to register his marriage with his beloved Lin Yuan. The eldest prince Luo Fei also decided to stay with Mo Han for the rest of his life before coming here to receive the certificate. Only Luo Ning was so playful that he directly agreed to marry Qin Yize. Thinking of Qin Yize who was dragged into the water by him, Luo Ning had no choice but to smile apologetically. He leaned into Qin Yize’s ear and said, “It’s too late to regret it now.”
Qin Yize raised his eyebrows and asked, “Do you regret it?”
“Of course. No.” Luo Ning took the pen and signed his name simply.
Qin Yize followed and signed his name, and every word was written in a very correct manner – he didn’t regret it, since he had made this decision, he should have the courage to bear the consequences. It was not his style to be timid.
Kelly, who was in charge of registration, checked the signatures, then entered the information of the two into the system, printed out two marriage certificates with photos and sent them to them, smiling as she said, “Congratulations to the two of you for becoming legal partners from today. This is your marriage certificate, please keep it well, I wish you two a happy life and that you grow old together.”
The two thanked her in unison, took the marriage certificate and left side by side.
Luo Ning’s mecha, Cang Luan, had already changed into an ordinary hover car, waiting on the platform near the registration office. The two walked into the cockpit and set the navigation route. Cang Luan immediately spread his wings and flew to the high-altitude suspension lane.
The sun was shining outside the window, Luo Ning sat on the sofa in the car and opened the marriage certificate as if he was playing with a fresh toy. “The certificate photo is very beautiful.”
“…” Is your focus not quite right? Qin Yize also opened the marriage certificate and looked at the photo of the two of them, suddenly feeling a little awkward.
In the photo, Luo Ning smiled very gently, while Qin Yize was showing a rare smile. The two had deliberately put on formal clothes today for taking the photo at the marriage registration office. Of course, their smiles were fake, they were just to be seen by others. But even if it was pretend, the two people in the photo looked very well matched.
Qin Yize never thought that he would get married so early, and he never dreamed that the object of his marriage would be the noble second prince. The second prince was famous. It was said that there were many Alphas from prominent families who offered to marry Luo Ning to His Majesty, but Luo Ning refused. Therefore, according to folklore, His Royal Highness Second Prince’s eyes were very high, and ordinary Alphas couldn’t be liked at all.
It turned out that he, Qin Yize, a big star in the entertainment industry, just inexplicably became the Alpha of His Royal Highness the Second Prince? If this news spread, in the entire empire, don’t know how many Alphas would envy and hate him. But God knows, he hadn’t even touched Luo Ning’s hand, the two of them just acted too much, so they had to go to get the certificate – he was also very helpless!
Thinking of this, Qin Yize rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, looked at Luo Ning and said, “The wedding will be officially held in a few days. After marriage, we should live separately according to the agreement.”
Luo Ning certainly thought so too, so he immediately said, “No problem. You continue to live with your agent, I’ll live alone, and we’ll try to disturb each other as little as possible, just like before marriage.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Yize suddenly received a video call request from Yu Lan. Qin Yize then connected the call, and his mother on the screen looked extremely happy, then with a gentle smile on her face, she asked: “Yize, I heard that you went to collect the certificate today? Is it going well?”
Qin Yize nodded: “Well, we already got it.”
He showed his mother the brand-new marriage certificate, Yu Lan’s eyes immediately lit up, and she said excitedly, “That’s great! Come home to have dinner tonight, just to celebrate, my mother still has some good news for you!”
Qin Yize had a strange intuition – this “good news” might not be very “good” for the two of them.
Since Yu Lan personally invited Luo Ning, the two went directly to Qin’s house for dinner. Qin Yize’s father, Qin Rong, was busy today. There were only his mother Yu Lan and a few servants at home. Luo Ning felt a lot more relaxed. After all, Yize’s mother Yu Lan was gentle and easy to get along with.
Yu Lan made a table of sweets according to Luo Ning’s preferences, Luo Ning liked the desserts she made very much, and his mouth became even sweeter after eating: “Auntie, since Yize and I have obtained the certificate, we will be a family from now on. Don’t be too polite, every time I come to dinner, you make so many desserts with your own hands, they are enough for me to eat for a week!”
Yu Lan looked at him tenderly: “Since we’re a family, why do you still call me aunt? You should call me mother instead. Right?”
Luo Ning almost spit out his sip of tea. Although the two acted realistically, the word “mother” was really indescribable.
Qin Yize coughed lightly and helped Luo Ning out of the siege: “Mom, Luo Ning is thin-skinned, and is not quite used to changing how he calls you now. It will be the same if he changes it in the future.”
Yu Lan nodded hurriedly: “Yes, yes, don’t worry.”
Qin Yize changed the subject and asked, “What is the good news you were talking about?”
“Wait a minute.” Yu Lan turned around and took out a large, delicate red envelope and handed it to Luo Ning. Luo Ning thought she was giving him a red envelope, so he politely took it, but when he opened it, it turned out to be a real estate certificate with his name written on it?
Yu Lan smiled and said, “Since you have all obtained the certificate, mother should also express something. This is a surprise for you from mother – a single honeymoon villa located near the sea area of the West Tower, it has a beach within a radius of a few kilometers. I bought all the land nearby, and the scenery is amazing. Don’t worry, there won’t be anyone around, it’s very quiet. After you get married, you can live there for a while and enjoy your sweet two-person world!”
Luo Ning: ” “…”
Qin Yize: “…”
The sweet two-person world isolated from the world?!
They couldn’t wait to be 800 meters away from each other after marriage and keep a distance, okay?
Qin Yize couldn’t help laughing when he looked at the property certificate of the villa. He really couldn’t bear the care from his own mother.
Could he avoid the honeymoon after marriage?
