West coast

Chapter 24 Yes I do

On March [-]th, although the rainy season in California has not yet completely ended, the sun is shining brightly today.

Lin Nan regretted it when he got up in the morning, and only wanted to escape.

Hair stylists, stylists, and photographers surrounded him layer by layer.He originally thought that he would go to the city hall to get a certificate and sign it. Who knew that there would be such a big battle.So he found an excuse, slipped back into the bedroom and couldn't come out.

It turns out that premarital phobia is not just a moaning, but a real existence!

The wedding planner knocked on the door anxiously, saying that if he didn't leave, he would miss the registration time.Qin Chuan came over, waved his hands, and asked them to go to the living room and wait.

He knocked on the door lightly, and said softly, "Nan, it's me. Can you open the door?" After speaking, he waited quietly at the door.

The door lock clicked open.

Qin Chuan walked in.

Lin Nan was still frowning at first, but when he saw Qin Chuan wearing this suit specially prepared for the wedding, he couldn't help sighing silently in his heart: How handsome!

Qin Chuan asked softly, "Nan, what's the matter?"

Lin Nan lowered his head and whispered, "I...I don't know."

Qin Chuan patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Then sit down first and talk to me carefully. Don't bother with outside affairs."

Lin Nan sat on the bed and said slowly, "Qin Chuan, I don't know if I made the right choice. I didn't think much about it before, thinking it was just a sign and a formality. But today I saw so many people Walking around us, I suddenly became scared. We... are just a fake marriage, right?"

Qin Chuan: "Well, that's right. But shouldn't the acting be more realistic? If we casually wear pajamas and pajamas to sign the signature, won't the Immigration Bureau be suspicious?"

Lin Nan: "Qin Chuan, I mean... Between us... Do you understand? I am afraid that I will let you down."

Qin Chuan: "Hahahaha, are you afraid that I will fall in love with you after a fake show? Hahahahaha, don't tease Lin Nan. Don't forget that I am Qin Chuan, the famous diamond king in Silicon Valley! The little girls are waiting in line And me!"

Hearing what Qin Chuan said, Lin Nan felt a little relieved, and he also began to feel that he was thinking too much.

Lin Nan finally walked out of the bedroom. The moment he walked out the door, he was caught by the wedding planner three times and five times, and he was stuffed into a Bentley almost like a prisoner, and drove [-] miles on the leftmost road all the way. To the city hall.Since he became a wedding planner, he has seen too many people who escaped marriage on the spot, and he has to be very skillful in dealing with this group of people.

City Hall is a government office building standing in the center of San Francisco, but its architectural style is beautiful. It looks like a cathedral in Europe and a charming castle in modern society. The baroque towering The dome hall is very spectacular, with exquisite reliefs everywhere, solemn and romantic.

Although the same-sex marriage bill was passed in the United States in 2015, the city of San Francisco has already recognized the legality of same-sex marriage in 2004, which makes San Francisco City Hall the first choice for many people to register for marriage.

As soon as Lin Nan stepped into the city hall, he regretted it again. He clearly saw that the human resources department, legal department, IT department, and everyone he knew and didn't know were all present.They won't get married today, will they?Before Lin Nan could run away, he was dragged to the registration office by several well-dressed male best men, and handed in his passport and driver's license in a daze.The priest told them that the ceremony was still half an hour away.

"Ceremony? What ceremony?" When Lin Nan came out of the office downstairs, he realized that the entire city hall was booked out today.The open space on the first floor was fenced off, with more than a dozen rows of temporary seats neatly forming a semicircle.Qin Chuan also invited a group of symphony orchestras, and one of the girls was holding a harp and playing music for everyone.The guests were wearing formal attire and gowns, clinking glasses with each other and drinking champagne. Lin Nan was a little at a loss. He clearly told Qin Chuan not to mobilize the crowd, but Qin Chuan came to announce it to the world.

The scale of this wedding is indeed a bit too much, far from the low-key signing that Lin Nan thought.Is it still too late for him to be a runaway groom?Lin Nan thought.But it was obviously too late, this was not a movie, and he didn't know any gangsters who would suddenly come out to intercept the marriage.

Qin Chuan chatted with Juan (Spanish name, pronounced "Juan", not "Juan") who was in charge of recruitment in the human resources department not far away.

Juan: "I didn't expect you two to get married so soon. Last year, when you insisted on stuffing his resume and letting us recruit him, I had a premonition that things would be difficult hahaha."

Qin Chuan: "His ability is really good. It's normal for me to be tempted. But stuffing your resume is a secret between me and you. Don't let Lin Nan know."

After speaking, the two touched champagne.

The priest appeared at the appointed time, with silver hair, a straight waist, and a powerful voice.

"Gentlemen and ladies. Our ceremony is about to begin. Please take your seats."

Then Lin Nan and Qin Chuan followed the instructions, one stood on the priest's left and the other on his right.

The pastor solemnly said to the guests word by word: "Marriage is the sublimation of love and mutual trust. It not only requires a lifetime of love between the two parties, but also a lifetime of mutual trust. Today Qin Chuan and Lin Nan will be here to tell you Solemnly declare their pledge of love and trust to each other."

The pastor turned to Qin Chuan and asked, "Mr. Qin Chuan, are you willing to make Lin Nan your legal husband? Whether it is good or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad, you will have no reservations. Love him and be faithful to him forever?"

Qin Chuan: "Yes, I am willing."

Immediately afterwards, the pastor asked Lin Nan again: "Mr. Lin Nan, are you willing to be Qin Chuan's husband? Whether it is good times or bad times, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad, you will have nothing to worry about." love him with reservations, and be faithful to him forever?"

Lin Nan: "Yes, I am willing."

Pastor: "Now, Mr. Qin Chuan, please take out the ring, put it on Mr. Lin Nan's hand, and read after me: I will take this ring as a testimony of my oath, and I will love you today, tomorrow, and forever."

Qin Chuan took the ring out of the green box, and put it on Lin Nan's ring finger bit by bit, just enough to get stuck.Lin Nan also put the ring on Qin Chuan's left hand.

Pastor: "I declare that Qin Chuan and Lin Nan are married. Qin Chuan, you can kiss your husband now."

Lin Nan was startled, and OS in his heart: "Wait! Kiss?! It's over, why did I forget this?! Wait a minute, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

His pupils dilated suddenly, his heart beat wildly, his hands and feet felt cold, and his whole body became stiff.

I saw Qin Chuan slowly holding Lin Nan's hands and looking into his eyes affectionately.At this moment, there is infinite tenderness in those eyes.There seemed to be expectations and invitations in Qin Chuan's eyes. He was waiting for Lin Nan to get ready.There was no movement for a full 10 seconds.

The audience below began to commotion.

Stared at by such hot eyes, Lin Nan wanted to avoid it, but couldn't help but sink into it.He met Qin Chuan's gaze, which gradually melted into the depths of Qin Chuan's eyes. For a moment, he felt that this was his wedding with Qin Chuan, not a fake marriage to deal with the immigration bureau.

Although Lin Nan's heartbeat was still fast, his nervousness gradually calmed down. His eyes moved down little by little, and fell on Qin Chuan's lips.

Qin Chuan didn't wait any longer, approached quickly, and kissed her.

The guests applauded and cheered, expressing congratulations one after another, and the audience was boiling.Qin Chuan's good friends all called Lin Nan "Hello, sister-in-law!" The orchestra began to play music, and the whole scene was very lively.Like many girls, Linda was infected by the atmosphere and quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

After the wedding, the guests dispersed, Lin Nan and Qin Chuan walked out of the city hall, ready to drive back.The wind is still a bit cold today, but the sunshine in the afternoon is beautiful, and tourists are all around taking pictures.Married couples are not uncommon in San Francisco.People take it for granted.The little Mexican boys who were playing football on the green lawn of the city hall saw them wearing suits and congratulated Lin Nan and Qin Chuan: "Congratulations!"

As the sun set, warm sunlight slanted in from the car window and sprinkled on the two of them, driving away the chill of March.

The road back to the Bay Area from downtown San Francisco was very congested. Lin Nan sat in Qin Chuan's co-pilot, staring out the window in a daze.

This feeling is really strange, how did you get married?

He glanced back at Qin Chuan and found that he was giggling while driving.

Lin Nan asked, "What are you laughing at?

Qin Chuan replied: "I married a daughter-in-law today, so happy."

Lin Nan knew he was joking, but he couldn't help but be infected by this peaceful, quiet and happy atmosphere.

"Let me discuss something with you." Qin Chuan said suddenly, "I heard that the Immigration Bureau is very strict on fake marriages and often conducts surprise inspections. We live separately at present. If the Immigration Bureau suddenly bedchecks and finds me It's troublesome if you don't live together. How about you move in to my house as a roommate, and the rent is free?"
