At the corner of the lawyer's promenade. There are tables and stools. Guests can sit and relax.

At this moment, it is me and Ritsu Zhaochuan who occupy the tables and stools here.

The sun doesn't shine on me, but I still feel hot and thirsty. So, I poured water desperately. From the time I entered the door to now, counting this cup, I have poured five glasses of water. But he still has a dry mouth and a hot mouth.

Obviously, using water to relieve the anxiety in the heart is completely useless.

The door to Mr. Ritsu's study was shut. Today, the guests in the study are my father and my mother.

Yesterday morning, my mom and I went to the airport to pick up my dad. Dad's flight arrived as scheduled. Contrary to Mom, who only carried a small suitcase, Dad appeared in front of us with several suitcases. Seeing my amazement, my father explained to me, "This big bag is full of things for you, and most of them are chosen by your mother." ”

Our family of three got together after a long absence. Mom cooks a lot of delicious food. My dad and I swept away everything my mom had made like a whirlwind of leaves.

"Another day, let's go see Brother Lu together." Mom said to Dad while washing the dishes.

"Oh." Dad replied.

I don't need to analyze it much, but I can understand why they meet and what they talk about when they meet. I couldn't help but tighten my scalp. And this "change of heaven" is not ethereal, nor is it far away. After putting the dishes and chopsticks in the cupboard, Dad called Mr. Ritsu.

"Tomorrow...... Good. Tomorrow you can. Then we'll see you tomorrow. Dad said into the phone.

I was nervous: Tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry......

Early the next morning, the family of three went to the appointment together. As soon as I got out of the door of the building, I saw Lu Zhaochuan open the car door and come down. It turned out that he had been waiting downstairs at my house early in the morning.

"Uncle, uncle." He greeted respectfully, took the initiative to take the heavy object from his father's hand, opened the trunk, and carefully placed it.

Dad didn't open his mouth. He examined every action of Ritsu Terukawa with an almost nitpicky gaze. At the same time, he looked at me suspiciously, at him.

I understood what my father meant, and he still can't believe that I actually got together with Yuzhaochuan.

At this moment, the adults were talking in the room, and Ritsu Zhaochuan and I were waiting outside.

"You're nervous?" Ritsu Terukawa asked me.

I carefully put the cup down and smiled embarrassedly at him.

Ritsu Zhaochuan dragged his cheeks and looked at me with curiosity.

He had a smile in his eyes, and his gaze was momentary.

I raised my hand to cover his eyes: "Don't look at me like that. ”

He took my hand off, held it, and didn't let go.

"yes, yes, I'm so nervous. Aren't you nervous? I nodded, acknowledging and asking rhetorically.

Ritsu Zhaochuan thought about it and pressed my hand on his left chest.

Feel the powerful undulating beat of the heart under the palm of your hand.

"How?" Ritsu asked.

"What?"

"How does it feel to be in person?"

“……”

Seeing that I didn't answer, Ritsu continued: "Or, you need to make further contact to make an accurate judgment. With that, he reached for the collar of his shirt, unbuttoning his buttons one by one......

"Oops, hey, I know, I know. Like, just like me......" I said again and again, quickly withdrawing my hand, and my weak eyes drifted in the direction of the inner hall, confirming whether it was "safe" or not.

There was no one around, and I was secretly relieved. Looking back at Lu Zhaochuan again, he raised his eyebrows and grinned, with a triumphant face. He doesn't hide his bad little smugness at all.

I couldn't help but clench my fist and pound it on his chest: "You are serious! ”

"I'm not serious."

He sat down beside me instead, his hands clasped around my waist. He rested his chin on my shoulder and said in a low, soft voice, "Don't worry, no matter what the outcome of their negotiation is, it won't affect us." Because, the household register is with me. ”

"Is the Hukou book great for you? I'm still the head of the household. I blurted out.

I am the head of the household on the newly re-issued household registration book.

"Good. You will continue to be the head of the household in the future! ”

“……”

This time it's a good thing, I was carefully cared for by Ritsu Zhaochuan and became an idiot, and the head on top of my head was obviously a lot sluggish, and I didn't understand the meaning of his words until this moment.

I hurriedly poured water for myself, took several sips, and then hummed and said, "Uh-huh, you see, I'm so nervous that my palms are sweaty......"

We were chatting with each other.

I don't know how long it took. The door to Mr. Ritsu's study finally opened. Ritsu Zhaochuan and I immediately stood up.

The grown-ups came out. Ritsu Zhaochuan got up and walked towards them. None of them spoke. After a pause, they—Ritsu Zhaochuan, Dad, and Mr. Ritsu—walked side by side towards the gate as if they were going to do something together.

Obviously they didn't speak, why did they act so consistently? What's going on with this incredible understanding?

I wasn't alone. "Where are you going?" Mom asked curiously.

"Zhan Ming and I want to have a drink with Chuan'er. A gathering of men. Go home first. Dad looked back and explained.

"Oh." Mom said.

Before I could be surprised, they had already set off.

After they left, my mom and I went home.

This man's party seems to have been going on for a long time, and I haven't heard from them again, nor from my mother, except for a message from Ritsu Terukawa saying "The banquet has begun".

I don't know what happened to them at this time, Ritsu Zhaochuan is a junior, will they be besieged......

I was thinking about it.

In the afternoon, the sun is setting in the west. I carried the sun-dried clothes to the bed and unfolded them one by one.

"Stars ......"

At first, I thought it was a mishearing.

"Stars ......"

I stopped, and listened carefully. Outside the closed window, the wind came smoothly. In the wind, Shadow heard someone calling me. I immediately put down what I was doing and leaned down through the window.

Sure enough, seeing Lu Zhaochuan downstairs, his hands around his mouth in a tube, he was calling me one after another.

"Shhh

It's not a soundproofed building either, and I'm worried about disturbing my neighbors, so I gesture to him to be quiet.

When Ritsu Zhaochuan saw me, he immediately stopped his voice and waved his hands instead, because he was swinging too hard, one center of gravity was unstable, and he stumbled forward two steps and almost fell.

He stood firm, his head raised, and he continued to smile, revealing a mouthful of white teeth and an unguarded appearance.

I want to come to "small wine" is not small.

I hurried downstairs to pick him up.

Holding him staggering, I asked, "You're alone?" What about Uncle Law and my father? ”

"They're drunk and sleeping."

"What about you?"

"I was also drunk and slept. Just woke up. I'll come to you as soon as I wake up. He said.

"You drank a lot?"

"A little."

He also said "a little bit", and his style of speech was like becoming another person.

Lu Zhaochuan reached out and took out a small red notebook and stuffed it in my hand. I lowered my eyes, and it turned out to be a book of household registers.

"What is this?"

"For getting a certificate."

"I'm not asking about use."

"Let's get the certificate."

Since the decision is made to be together, obtaining a certificate is a necessary step.

I nodded, "Okay." ”

"Let's go, then." Ritsu Zhaochuan said, taking my hand and going out.

"Where?"

"Civil Affairs Bureau."

I was stunned.

"I said," I tried to express my inner thoughts, "is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" ”

A few hours ago, I was still worrisome about whether my parents would bless us. A few hours later, Lu Zhaochuan asked me to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get my certificate.

This upgrade speed is a bit too fast......

Should I admire Ritsu Zhaochuan's superior action, or should I question his eagerness a little?

"Always waiting for it to come in handy, always carrying it with me, you see, the corners are all crumpled by me."

I lowered my eyes and looked closely. Sure enough, the two corners of the page of the household registration book were slightly curled. I tried to rub it flat with my hands.

Ritsu Zhaochuan's thumb gently stroked the ring on my finger, and I never took off the ring he gave me that day.

"Well, I finally caught you, I don't want to wait any longer." He seemed to be a little aggrieved, and said softly with a flat mouth.

"Got it." I relented.

He was unabashedly overjoyed and pulled me out.

"Wait a minute." I hurriedly dragged him down.

"How...... What's wrong? He paused.

Seeing his nervous look, I couldn't help laughing: "Fool, how can you just take your household registration book, you have to take mine." ”

I was embarrassed to tell Lu Zhaochuan, in fact, I also turned out the household registration book from the information bag in advance, and it was now on the coffee table in the living room.

"Oh, yes, go get it." Ritsu Zhaochuan urged.

At this time, I heard my mother shouting upstairs: "Selangor! "I look up." Then! Mom said and raised her hand, and a cloth bag fell. I caught the cloth bag, lifted the outer wrapper, and found that it was wrapped in my household registration book.

Mom was smiling at me upstairs.

"The household registration book is here, so let's go now." Lu Zhaochuan said.

"Hmm!" I nodded.

At this moment, the daylight is at its deepest.

Ritsu Zhaochuan and I, we held hands and walked side by side to the place where the light was at its peak.
