As they entered the civil bureau, Gu Shengsheng felt a sense of surrealism wash over her. Was she really getting married to a stranger? The fluorescent lights overhead seemed to hum in sync with her racing thoughts.
Mo Qingcheng led her to the counter, where a clerk looked up from her paperwork and smiled. "Welcome to the civil bureau. How can I assist you?"
"We're here to get married," Mo Qingcheng replied, his voice firm and confident.
Gu Shengsheng's heart skipped another beat as the clerk nodded and began to process their paperwork. This was really happening.
As they waited, Mo Qingcheng turned to Gu Shengsheng and asked, "Do you have any identification on you?"
Gu Shengsheng nodded, rummaging through her purse to find her ID. As she handed it over to Mo Qingcheng, their fingers touched, sending a spark of electricity through her body.
She quickly pulled her hand back, feeling a flush rise to her cheeks. Mo Qingcheng's eyes seemed to gleam with amusement, but he said nothing.
The clerk handed them a form to fill out, and Mo Qingcheng took it from her, his eyes scanning the document before he began to fill it out.
As they waited for the paperwork to be processed, Gu Shengsheng couldn't help but steal glances at Mo Qingcheng. Who was this man, really? And what did he want from her? .
