Chapter 436 - From Today Onwards (2)
"Mommy, where are we going?" Xiao Bao asked as he looked at his father, who was sporting a stupid grin next to him and his twin sister at the back seat of their mommy's car.
"I suppose you already know that your father proposed to me today." Tang Moyu glanced at her rearview mirror and looked at her naughty twins, who helped their mischievous father to make this union possible.
"Ah? Daddy, you already asked her?" Little Star blinked. She hadn't expected that he would ask their mommy this soon.
"And your answer, Mommy?" Xiao Bao questioned. He didn't care if Daddy had impulsively asked their mommy's hand without him and Little Star around. He just needed to know if their parents would stay together, forever and ever.
Tang Moyu only smiled, her hands tightening on her steering wheel as she focused on the road.
"This is my answer to your father's proposal, darling. We are going to the Civil Affairs Bureau right now to get married." She informed the two. "I hope you are fine with this, Baobao, Little Star. I'm sorry I didn't have enough time to talk about this with you."
"No, Mommy, it's alright!" Little Star's eyes twinkled with such delight. She simply couldn't contain the happiness she was feeling right then.
Finally, her mommy and daddy were getting married! Why would she be disappointed with it? Wasn't this the reason why she and her Yu Gege tried their best to make sure their Uncle Ji would eventually end up with their Mommy?
It was about four in the afternoon when the Tangs and Feng Tianyi arrived at the parking lot of the Civil Affair Bureau. Tang Moyu switched off the engine of her car, while Feng Tianyi released the little buns from their car seats.
They alighted the car and Feng Tianyi took his bride-to-be's hands and held it tightly, as if he was afraid she would run off from him.
"Moyu, are you sure you want to marry me? You still have enough time to back out. Once we enter that building, there's no turning back anymore." He whispered next to her as they walked alongside their little buns.
Tang Moyu only raised a brow and glanced at their twined fingers.
"Are you regretting your decision now? If I really wanted that inheritance and didn't care about you at all, I think Yun Zhen would do. I'm sure he would willingly marry me, don't you think?" She said with a mocking tone.
The devil's face fell after those words. He knew that she was just teasing him, but it was a bad joke, alright!
If Tang Moyu was to marry someone, that person should only be him, the devil!
Together, the family of four entered the building and saw that the hallway was empty and there was only one couple registering their marriage at the moment. Tang Moyu sighed in relief that they had arrived just in time.
The clerk greeted them and asked if they wanted to get married or divorce. Feng Tianyi received the forms to register their marriage and Tang Moyu started filling out hers at once, while their twins remained seated on the bench, waiting for their parents to be officially married.
"Tianyi, do you still want this or not? Do I need to fill in the forms for you?" She stopped, placed down her pen and looked at him with a frown on her beautiful face.
The devil snapped out of his trance and saw the disappointment in her face.
"I-I have one condition, Moyu. If it's alright with you." He said with all seriousness.
"Shoot. What is it?" The empress sighed and resumed filling in her own form.
"We aren't allowed to get divorced, no matter how bad our arguments are. In this lifetime, only I can be your husband!"
Tang Moyu's hand halted, the corner of her lips turned up as she looked at him.
"Deal. You better make sure you won't regret this. You are the one who asked for it." She reminded him.
Feng Tianyi nodded and swifty filled in his form enthusiastically. The rest of the procedure went smoothly. The forms were filled, vows read by both parties, pictures were taken, doc.u.ments needed to be signed were signed.
In the end, Feng Tianyi and Tang Moyu stepped out of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Their twins' faces lit up when they saw them holding their marriage certificates.
"Congratulations, Mommy! Daddy!" The little buns eagerly run towards them with glee, wrapping their small arms around each of their parent's t.h.i.g.hs.
Tang Moyu let out a low laugh and hoisted Little Star up before giving the girl a kiss on the cheek.
Feng Tianyi tightly held onto the red book in his hand. Still in disbelief that they were actually married this time. He took another look at their photo, standing next to each other. He could see the slight smile on the empress's lips.
"What's wrong?" Tang Moyu looked at him, puzzled by his expression.
"I just feel as if… as if none of this is real." Feng Tianyi laughed at his own ridiculousness. However, he was still in a state of disbelief. The fact that their names would be together now and they were legally married was still too new for his mind to process.
He heard the empress laugh along with their children. Tang Moyu leaned forward with Little Star in her other arm, pulled his collar forward, forcing him to lean down to accept her kiss. It was short and sweet, but was enough to calm his nerves.
When they parted, Tang Moyu didn't pull away, but instead rested her forehead against his.
"So, does this feel real to you now?"
Feng Tianyi inhaled deeply. He lightly pinched himself to make sure. Yes, this was all real.
