Entrust My Life To You - Chapter 48
Translated by: RandomAlex
I went back to my apartment early, flipped through my magazine, I saw a funny joke. Then I opened my cell phone.
“Doctor, where are you?”
“On the subway, why?”
“The owner of the Kremlin has such a rule: Lenin has no hair, Stalin has hair, Khrushchev has no hair, Brezhnev has hair, Gorbachev has no hair, Yeltsin has hair, Putin has no hair, Medvedev has hair. After the lower house of parliament election in December, Russians added online: Putin has no hair, Medvedev has hair, Putin has no hair, Medvedev has hair, Putin has no hair…”
(TNote: I don’t get this joke if you do please tell me in the comments. — I’ve searched it online, no results ╮ (￣ω￣;)╭)
“…”
“Hahaha…”
“You wait.”
What am I waiting for? I somehow put my cell phone back into my pocket and took a box of yogurt to eat slowly from the refrigerator. Before eating, the Doctor came back with a bag of asparagus in his hand.
I looked at his bag of ‘the best anti-cancer food’ and felt that the Doctor’s occupational disease had already gone into acute blindness …
The Doctor put down his bag, changed his slippers, and came straight at me–reaching out and pinching my face.
I protested: “You just let me wait for you to pinch me?”
“Yeah, how is your brained wired? What do you think about all day long?”
“You… ah! “
“…”
“?” My expression was particularly innocent.
Then this guy got discouraged and threw himself on top of me.
“Let’s make time to take wedding photos.”
“Doctor, are you asking for marriage once every day? ^ ^.”
“…” The Doctor directly ignored me. “It’s getting warm, call and make an appointment. It suddenly occurs to me that, your novel is done too.”
I put the rest of the yogurt on the table for a while: “Doctor, do you know there is something in this world called an ‘Extra Chapters’?”
The Doctor looked dazed.
Me: “I’ll write even after I get married. If you treat me badly in the future, I will lead public opinion to block you!”
Sometimes I really feel that the Doctor’s mental education has been improved by me. He raised his eyebrows calmly and picked up my yogurt to continue eating …
After eating, we called both parents to choose a date. I then contacted the studio to set the time to take pictures.
I watched him methodically make a bunch of phone calls: “Doctor, have you been planning this for a long time?”
“Yes, I have. For years.”
“…”
The day we took wedding photos…
I have always been interested in underwater photography, so I decided to put my first attempt at the wedding photos. When I saw such a big pool, I immediately froze in place.
“What’s the matter?”
“Doctor did I ever tell you that I couldn’t swim…?”
The Doctor glanced at the pool and said, “At this depth?”
I looked at it and waved my hand: “Okay then, go into the water.”
The photographer said, “you can do whatever you want, and I’ll take the picture.”
(TNote: that’s not how photography works! (ノ_ <。))
I took a deep breath, went into the water, and then stayed there. I don’t know what to do, but I just feel that my hair floated from my scalp one by one. My hands hung in front of me because of buoyancy. I opened my fingers one by one, and my skin was under the water lamp, the color was like warm jade.
A slender hand took my hand through the current. The feeling of interlocking fingers underwater is very delicate.
I watched the Doctor stop opposite me and took off his glasses. I don’t know how he can keep his eyes open underwater. Right now, I just want to close my eyes. Before closing them, I saw him approaching slowly with a shallow smile… In my opinion, there is nothing more beautiful than a dream. And this was it.
That day, in the later solo photos, the Doctor went into the water with me and hid outside the camera, but I always swam and swam to his side. I always have an irresistible attraction to him.
After taking the pictures, San San called and said, “how’d it go? Did you kiss underwater?”
“Not French Kiss. Only friendly kisses. Novels and movies are deceptive, how could people breathe from a kiss? It’s more like letting people inhale carbon dioxide from your mouth.”
When I came out from the Civil Affairs Bureau, I took a breath of fresh air.
We got the marriage license today!
When I was lying in the dormitory bed in the morning, I was a little confused when I got a call from the Doctor, and then he took me to the personnel department to issue a certificate. I pulled his sleeve: “Why are we getting it today?”
“I’m off today.”
“…” Why are your answers always so weird?
” You agreed at the Maternal and Children’s Hospital that day.”
“…” Thinking of that ‘Hmm’, I was speechless. Doctor, you are really insincere!!!
I looked up at the sky, the sky is clear, the weather is fine! (￣_￣)・・・
Then I hooked the Doctor by the neck: “Let’s go, today is a big day in our lives!”
The Doctor took off my hand and walked towards the car. “For the rest of our lives? We’ve been urged to get married many times.”
Filling out the form at the Civil Affairs Bureau. When the registrar was reviewing the information, I asked: “shouldn’t you ask, ‘is it voluntary?'”
The old man smiled: “Girl, are you willing?”
“Willing.”
I looked at the Doctor who stared at the side with a surprise: “aren’t you willing?”
The Doctor helped: “I am very willing.”
After receiving the marriage check-up form, thanked the uncle, we went out. I was detained by the Doctor all the way to the examination.
“Why are you holding me? I’m won’t run away.”
“To prevent you from disturbing the peace.”
“… I am a good citizen!”
After the premarital check-up, we submit it for examination.
Before signing, the doctor looked at me: “Don’t sign until you’ve made up your mind.”
I looked at him: “Of course, I will sign your deed of sale.”
Then I went to the registration desk for a quarter of an hour before we got out a little red book. (So, comrades, getting a marriage license is not as simple as it’s written in those novels that only say that two people could get a picture and a seal.)
Out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, I took a long breath and watched the two little red books being held in the hands of the man next to me. Imagining in an unconstrained ‘husband ~’ call to the doctor with little shyness, I was instantly shocked and shivered.
The Doctor asked: “what’s the matter?”
I looked up: “I’d still better call you Doctor.”
The Doctor’s expression told me that he was baffled: “Whatever you want.”
I grabbed his arm and called out with great shyness: “Husband ~”
He subconsciously inhaled sharply, cleared his throat, and smiled: “Mrs. Gu, pay attention to your image.”
“Congratulations, Mr. Gu. On the success of the revolution, joining the married army and entering a new stage in your life.”
“Thank you for your concern. I will try my best.”
I touched his face: “Good boy. Go back by yourself. I’m going to school.”
“We just got married, and you don’t want me?!”
Two passers-by heard us; They were surprised by Gu Wei’s words and looked at us strangely.
I had black lines on my head.
“I’m going back to school to find my mentor.” What are you doing?!
“When that’s done. I’ll to your dormitory to pack up your things.”
“What are you doing?”
“Are there any married women living in dormitories?”
“Hmm–“
The Doctor stopped and spoke solemnly: “You’re not getting a license to just go home to each other’s house alone every day, right?”
I don’t think that’s right.
“But– I haven’t graduated yet.”
“Does graduation have anything to do with you living at home?”
“…” I realized that I had never thought about this question before.
“Why do I feel like you’re married but unmarried too?”
I suddenly felt the same way.
“Well, you shouldn’t have obtained our license so early.” my mind was spinning, cousin, Yin Shi, senior-sister… No wonder everyone gets stuck after graduation.
The Doctor frowned: “Lin Zhixiao–“
“No, I didn’t mean that. I really want to marry you!” I hugged his arm, “it’s just that, I really feel that I have moved out of school completely now—and my defense is about to begin.”
I look at the doctor who was still frowning. Is this our first conflict since marriage? That was fast! I sighed, dragged the Doctor to his fate, walking to the car: “Okay, I’ll try to go home every day, but there’s no guarantee. Don’t take all my clothes with you later. For books and materials, please leave them at school first. I’ll come over during the day. If I run away from too many classes now, Xiao Cao would hit me later, you have to shield me…”
The Doctor went to the library to help me borrow some books I wanted to take home. I came out of my class and went back to the dormitory to pack my things.
Xiao Cao screamed after knowing my married identity: “Lin Zhixiao, do you have a conscience? If you leave now, you can throw away the feelings of classmates. You’re in such a hurry to get a license, you must be pregnant!”
I was very disappointed…
What a nice girl, she was so spoiled by passers-by A…
“Ah Xiao– I’m going back as soon as I graduate.”
“What?” I stopped my work. “You’re not staying in X City?”
“My father just called and still wants me to go back home. My parents are getting older and older, and I am the only child… I promised.”
When the Doctor came up, he saw me and Xiao Cao hugging each other with red eyes, while standing in the doorway for a while.
Xiao Cao caught a glimpse of it and loosened her hug. I went to the balcony to get a box.
The Doctor put the book in his hand on the desk and looked at me.
“Xiao Cao is going back to S province. It will be difficult to see each other in the future.”
The Doctor was silent for a while: “We got our license today, you must have dinner with me.”
“Hmm?”
The Doctor sighed: “If you want to live in school until graduation, just stay in school.”
In the end, I took nothing but a set of pajamas and a change of clothes.
When I came out of the dormitory, I suddenly remembered: “How did you get up to our dormitory room just now?” The property manager is very strict in checking people.
“Showed them our marriage license.”
“…” This man…
Suddenly, I had a flash of inspiration and pulled out my cell phone: “Passer-by A, Xiao Cao is going to live with her parents back in S province.”
“⊙_⊙!”
“I just got the call.”
“Hiss–“
“… Forget it. I’m sorry for your loss.”
“What loss?! What condolence?! My ticket has been rescheduled!”
“Rescheduled?”
“I was supposed to visit on Labor Day!”
The phone was hung up with a snap.
The Doctor glanced at me. I stuffed my phone back into my pocket: “Well, you know, married women are always keen on matchmaking.”
Special Dialog
Doctor: I didn’t see that you were so keen on matchmaking before.
(I’ve just been promoted to a married woman.)
