Offer to the CEO - Chapter 715

Wednesday, continued…

Twenty minutes later the car pulled up outside a small, non-descript building.  Anna followed Hou Yi and on reaching the door he said “I have a surprise for you.  The Civil Administration Bureau have this area for people who want to reconfim the issuing of their marriage certificate.  I arranged this and the official who did it will be here for the ceremony.  Some of our family is waiting inside.”

Anna cried out “Yi …” before placing her head on his c_h_e_s_t.  He was going all out to mark the first twelve months of their crazy life journey, by bringing their family in for a special commemeration.

Heading inside, she saw not only Yi’s parents, grandparents and Aunt, but Jang with local nanny in a pram, James and Alecia, but most surprisingly her father.  “Yi?”

“While I could not get your whole family here, and some of our friends are missing for the reasons we know, I wanted to make this as special as I could, and your father could some.”

Hou Yi walked over to Stan Jones and gave him Anna’s hand before saying “I hope, despite all that has happened in the last twelve months you are happy for your daughter and I to be together.”

“Yi she is so happy, and there is no way I will do anything to hurt her any more that what my own selfishness has previously done.”

Those simply words, started Anna crying.  Seeing them, Stan said “Anna, do not cry.  Your life journey has brought you here.  All I want if for all of my children to be happy.”

Anna  threw herself into her father’s arms crying out “Daddy…”

Hou Yi stepped back leaving Anna to hug her father, and quietly James moved up behind him and said, “You made her day.”

As Hou Yi opened his mouth to respond to James, Anna turned around and said “Yi, come on I want to do this right now.” Hou Yi could only shake his head, but walked over to Anna, and the two of them moved to where the official was standing and went through the process for the reconfirming of the issuing of their marriage certificate in front of their family.

For them, there was no hesitation, no sense of a business transaction, it was a true commitment for their lives, with part of their family around them.  As they turned at the end of the ceremony, unseen by anyone the official slipped out of the room.  Hou Yi and Anna were quickly embraced by their family, before the nanny brought Jang over to them to cuddle.

Being in the arms of his mother, Jang started to search for Anna b*east, drawing laughs from everyone.  Anna moved over to the side and sat down to feed Jang quietly.  As he finished Anna handed him back to the nanny and quietly asked “Where is …”

“The other nanny, Madam Hou.  We drew straws as to who would come here, and the outcome was that it was me.  We decided you and CEO Hou need time alone and can care for the little master for tomorrow as well.  That is our gift to you.” Pausing she moved Jang in her arms and said, “Now let me deal with the young master, and go and enjoy yourself.”

After the nanny left anna, Alecia came over and sat down beside her saying “Anna, Lexi Yao said she would have loved to have been here but figured that these would be something you liked. She does not design men’s clothes, but for a special occasion like this for a friend she said you deserved it.”

Before Anna could respond, the quietness was broken by Alecia’s mobile ringing. She placed it on speaker and said, “What is it Dad?”

Yao Tan’s voice came over the phone “Today is not going to be a double celebration, as Amanda has given birth to your baby sister and brother.”

“Thank you, dad,” responded a teary Alecia, looking at James. “Do you need me to let Ton and Junior know?”

“I will call them. And I am guessing you had the phone on speaker, so everyone there knows?”

“Correct Dad.”

“OK everyone, Alecia and James you are allowed to come and visit today, but no one else until tomorrow.”

There was an echo of yes responses, before Alecia ended the call and she and James quickly left to head to the hospital.

As they left, Du AnLing turned to Hou Yi and Anna, before saying “Now go you two.  Anna your dad is staying with us, and Jang will be safe.  Enjoy the rest of the day and come and collect him when you are ready.  And before you say anything, we have the nannies who can help us.”

Taking the advice of their family, Hou Yi and Anna left the venue, and headed back to the apartment, where a meal was waiting for them.  Neither of them really tasted the meal but they quickly ate the meal, for it to be taken away, and the staff were dismissed for the night.

As soon as they knew they were alone, Hou Yi walked Anna outside, and they sat down looking out over the city.  While Anna was distracted Hou Yi, handed her a jewellery box and said “While I know you hate fussy jewellery, I wanted to give you an eternity ring, to show you that I want you as my wife for life.” With that he opened the box and slipped the ring onto her finger, before kissing her rings and adding “Now, while I would love to stay here observing the city, you and I both know we want to keep enjoying the activities we hace scattered throughout the day.”

Blushing Anna squeaked our “Yi” before he swung her into his arms and carried them to their suite, for a night of p_l_e_a_s_u_r_e.
