Chapter 932: A Fate Sought for Thousands of Years

"Grandpa!" Zhou Andong said full of apologies: "It's all my fault for insisting on dragging Qiuqiu to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register, making Mom this angry."

Gu Minglan clutched her chest, lay back on the sofa, and said weakly: "I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore. Hurry up and call an ambulance."

"Alright, you're just getting more worked up as you talk." Seeing Jian Qiu rolled her eyes: "We've already registered. How about this: Dongzi and I go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce, and then when you're in a better mood, we'll get married again?"

Zhao Ping was left between laughter and tears by this mother and daughter: "Second Sister-in-law, since you've agreed to their affair, isn't it the same whether the marriage certificate is registered early or late?"

"Exactly!" Jian Mingfan, this fanboy, chimed in: "My sister has already registered with my brother-in-law. Whether you agree or not, they have already become a de facto couple, the raw rice has been cooked into porridge; you might as well accept it calmly."

The old man sighed: "Minglan, things have reached this point. It's better to find a time to meet Dongzi's parents, discuss it, and hold the wedding banquet as soon as possible."

Gu Minglan rolled over and sat up, pointing her finger at Seeing Jian Qiu: "Why did I give birth to such a troublesome thing like you?"

Zhou Andong grabbed Seeing Jian Qiu's hand and said earnestly: "Mom, please forgive me for registering the marriage certificate with Qiuqiu behind your back. This was disrespectful to you and also a slight to you as a mother."

Zhou Andong bowed properly to Gu Minglan: "Your daughter is very special and also very excellent. She is the kindest and most beautiful girl I have ever met. Please forgive my lack of vocabulary; I don't know what language to use to describe her perfection. I think this is all the result of your careful upbringing..."

Zhou Andong spoke with the simplest language and the most sincere tone: "Thank you for raising such an excellent daughter, and for letting a kid like me, who walked out of the mountain valley, take advantage of this..."

The old man and Zhao Ping were very moved because they felt Zhou Andong's sincerity.

Gu Minglan sighed secretly, and the anger in her heart slowly dissipated.

"I know you opposed us being together not because you had any prejudice against me, but because I wasn't excellent enough, and you weren't at ease handing your daughter over to me.

My looks are average, my talent is average, but my heart for Qiuqiu is not average. Meeting Qiuqiu in this life must be a fate I sought for thousands of years before the Buddha.

So, you don't have to worry; I will definitely do my best to make Qiuqiu the happiest woman in this world..."

Seeing Jian Qiu's watery eyes looked at Zhou Andong, a happy smile always on her face.

She didn't know about others, but she was truly moved by Zhou Andong.

Grabbing Zhou Andong's hand, she couldn't help but squeeze it hard.

"Enough!" Gu Minglan waved her hand powerlessly: "See when you have time, arrange it, and I will meet with Qiuqiu's father and your parents."

"I'm free anytime here." Zhou Andong said happily: "It mainly depends on when my dad has time."

Gu Minglan opened her mouth, just about to say, 'Just ask your dad when he has time,' when she immediately realized that the 'Dad' in Zhou Andong's mouth should be her family's Old Jian.

"I'll call and ask him when he has time, and then I'll notify you."

Gu Minglan completely gave up struggling. The marriage certificate was already registered; in legal terms, Zhou Andong and Qiuqiu were already a formal couple. Zhou Andong calling her Mom and calling Old Jian Dad was not a problem at all.

"By the way, there is one more thing."

As soon as Seeing Jian Qiu's voice fell, Gu Minglan raised her hand.

"Stop, no matter what it is, keep it in your heart. I want to live a few more years and don't want to hear it."

Seeing Jian Qiu giggled and sat beside Gu Minglan: "You must listen to this matter because it relates to your granddaughter."

"What?" Gu Minglan stood up with a 'whoosh'. She was truly frightened, her voice even sounding a bit off: "Are you pregnant?"

Although the two were a couple in law, in this era, many people's thinking hadn't changed yet, believing that only after holding a wedding banquet could it be considered a real marriage.

"No!" Seeing Jian Qiu said hurriedly: "We adopted a girl."

Then, Seeing Jian Qiu told the story of Su Su. Listening to it, Zhao Ping kept wiping away tears, Gu Minglan's eyes were also wet, and her voice was even a bit choked.

"This child's mother really had a bitter life."

"You did the right thing in this matter." The old man spoke: "Since you decided to adopt her, you must raise her well in the future and treat her like your own."

Zhao Ping cried her eyes out, took a tissue, and blew her nose: "Where is the child? I want to see her."

"My mom is taking care of her." Zhou Andong said: "Tomorrow, Qiuqiu and I will bring the child over."

The old man said: "Bring the child here; I also want to see this great-granddaughter."

"Sister!" Jian Mingfan asked curiously: "Does Su Su really only stop crying when she's in your arms?"

"Really!" Seeing Jian Qiu recalled the situation that day and still felt amazed: "That child, she cries whoever holds her, but she's fine only when I hold her."

"This is fate." Gu Minglan had completely accepted reality.

The old man said seriously: "Don't tell anyone about Su Su's background. No matter who asks, just say she is Qiuqiu's biological child."

Gu Minglan was just about to object when she suddenly thought of something, then nodded in agreement, and specifically instructed Jian Mingfan.

"Xiaofan, especially you, don't tell anyone, including your eldest uncle, eldest aunt, and several brothers and sisters."

Jian Mingfan patted his chest and guaranteed: "From now on, Su Su is my biological niece."

"Alright!" Seeing Jian Qiu checked the time: "It's too late, we're leaving."

"We're leaving too." Zhao Ping stood up, "It's so late, it's hard to hail a taxi. Let Dongzi send me back."

"Go on!" The old man waved his hand: "I should rest too."

Zhou Andong sent Zhao Ping and Jian Mingfan back first, and only then returned to the hotel.

The next morning, Zhou Andong and Seeing Jian Qiu finished breakfast at a small stall at the hospital entrance before coming to the ward.

Su Su was sitting on the bed, holding a cloth doll, throwing it back and forth.

"Su Su!" Zhou Andong walked over cheekily, picked up the little girl, and kissed her hard on the face.

The little girl struggled for a moment, saw it was her dad, grinned, threw the cloth doll on the ground, then hugged Zhou Andong's neck, burying her little head in his shoulder.

Seeing Jian Qiu reached out her hand: "Come, Mom will hold you!"

The little girl looked at the expression on her mother's face and was very reluctantly held over by her mother.

"Dad, Mom!" Zhou Andong came to the bedside and sat down: "Yesterday, Qiuqiu's mom said that we should meet in these next few days to discuss the matter of Qiuqiu and me getting married." ===== CHAPTER 933 =====
