The admission announcement for the national examination was released on time at [-]:[-] am on July [-]th. Mu Xushou kept refreshing in front of the computer. He clicked on the announcement to check his child's name at the first time, and found Chi Juntao in the SASAC line. Mu Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

The WeChat notification sounded, [Chi Juntao: I passed the exam! 】

[Mu Xu: I saw it, congratulations. 】

Chi Juntao couldn't wait to dial the phone. Mu Xu swiped the answer button and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Mr. Chen recommended a Hunan restaurant, let's try it, and," Chi Juntao said, lowering his voice, "When will you marry me?"

"..." Young Master Chi's sneaky voice was really funny, Mu Xu pursed his lips and said, "Isn't it a bit early to get married as soon as you graduate?"

"Let's agree!" Chi Juntao raised his voice, and after being saluted by the people around him, he walked out of the large room embarrassedly, got into the corridor and broke up with Mu Xu, "I graduated successfully and entered the system, isn't it right to get married?" Should it?"

"Talk about this at dinner." Mu Xu said, "Now go to work honestly."

"I can't sit still." Chi Juntao said.

"If you can't sit still, you have to sit." Mu Xu hung up the phone, looked at Ming Yuefeng who knocked on the door and came in, "What's wrong?"

"I need you to make a decision." Ming Yuefeng said.

Chen Pingche pushed open the office door with a kettle in his hand, and saw Chi Juntao sitting in a daze at the workstation, he smiled and said, "Congratulations, Xiao Chi."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Chi Juntao said, he stood up, reached out to catch the water bottle in Chen Pingche's hand, "I'll fetch the water for you."

"No, I'm active." Chen Pingche said, "My wife asked me to sit for an hour and have to stand up and walk around."

"You two have such a good relationship." Chi Juntao said, he picked up the water glass on the table and said, "I'll go to the tea room with you."

"I see that you are not very happy, did you quarrel with Mr. Mu?" Chen Pingche asked.

"No." Chi Juntao frowned, "I can't argue with him." He walked to the water dispenser and pressed the red hot water button, "I'm all mad at myself."

"Young man, get angry." Chen Pingche said, "It's better to quarrel."

Chi Juntao lowered his head to catch the water, not making any fuss.

Chen Pingche patted Chi Juntao on the shoulder, changed the subject, and said, "I have an appointment with Xie Yingzhuo. Tomorrow night, let's go to Xie's old house for dinner."

"Old house? That's amazing, Mr. Chen." Chi Juntao said, taking a sip of hot water, "I thought I'd go to a teahouse or clubhouse for dinner at most."

"Your grandpa has a lot of face." Chen Pingche said, "When I called, your grandpa was drinking tea and playing chess with Xie Jianfeng. Xie Jianfeng asked to meet you by name."

"Oh, I haven't seen the grandparents of the Xie family for a long time." Chi Juntao said, "Okay, I'll go pick out gifts in the afternoon, and then call my grandpa."

"Do it well." Chen Pingche filled the teapot with water and said, "If we can negotiate with the Xie family, the next few families will be easy."

"Yeah." Chi Juntao nodded, "I'll try my best."

Mu Xu parked the Panamera on the side of the road. In early April, a few days before Young Master Chi's birthday, he gave the car as a gift to the other party, but the other party returned it with stern words.Now Young Master Chi not only got a Porsche, but also a diligent part-time driver.

Rolling down the car window, Mu Xu and Chi Juntao, who was walking towards him with a computer bag, met their eyes. Before they could say hello, Young Master Chi rushed into the car like an arrow, and closed the car door with a bang. He said with a serious expression, "Do you not want to marry me?"

Mu Xu was dumbfounded. He started the car, turned on the turn signal, and asked, "Where is that Hunan restaurant?"

Chi Juntao took out his mobile phone, clicked on the map software, and the navigation sound came out from the mobile phone [Ready to start, the whole journey is 10.7 kilometers, it will take about...], he put the mobile phone on the shelf in front of the speaker, put on the seat belt, and tilted his head look out the window.

Mu Xu drove the car onto the viaduct according to the navigation instructions, and asked, "How is today?"

"Not good." Chi Juntao didn't turn his head, and his voice was even lower.

Mu Xu reached out and rubbed the back of his fiancé's angry head, and said, "I bought a new ring."

"What?" Chi Juntao turned his head abruptly, "What ring?"

"It's in the bag on the back seat." Mu Xu said, "Open it and have a look."

Chi Juntao turned around to grab the backpack in the back row, and took out a velvet box from the side pocket. He asked suspiciously, "Why did you suddenly think of buying a ring?"

"Change another style." Mu Xu said. He looked ahead, lightly stepped on the brakes, and turned into the parking lot. "I'm tired of only wearing one."

"..." Chi Juntao always felt that Mu Xu's words meant something. He opened the box, and the two paired rings were shining, inlaid with two pink diamonds.

"The two pink diamonds that Ming Yuefeng asked someone to bring, this color is hard to find." Mu Xu said, "But I think it looks pretty."

"It's pretty good-looking." Chi Juntao said, "It's better than the one I bought."

Mu Xu parked the car in the parking space and said angrily, "Don't look for trouble."

Chi Juntao held the velvet box in his palm, pushed the door and got off the car, stepped into the restaurant and said to the waiter at the door: "Two people, I want a small private room."

"Sir, two people can sit in the lobby." The waiter kindly reminded, "Our private room has a minimum consumption."

"I need a private room to facilitate quarrels." Chi Juntao said.

When Mu Xu entered the door, he just caught this sentence in his ears, and he said to the waiter, "Find a box."

"Okay." The waiter took the two of them to the private room on the second floor, and put down a cookbook for Mu Xu to choose.

Chi Juntao endured until Mu Xu finished ordering. The waiter walked out of the box and closed the door. He asked, "Why don't you marry me?"

Mu Xu raised his eyes, and Young Master Chi's eye circles were red, and he looked extremely wronged. He said, "The ring is a wedding ring." He stood up, walked to Chi Juntao's side, dug out the velvet box from the other's palm, opened it, Twist up a pink diamond ring and put it on the ring finger of the other party, saying, "It looks better than I imagined."

Chi Juntao said, "This is not considered a marriage."

"This is marriage, you know, I know, that's enough." Mu Xu said, "I don't want everyone to know about it."

"Why?" Chi Juntao asked, he held Mu Xu's hand, "Is it my problem?"

"It's not your problem, it's not anyone else's problem." Mu Xu said, sitting on the chair beside Chi Juntao, pinching the other's earlobe, his voice was gentle, "You just got admitted to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and Joaquin just passed the exam. Take the first step, I don't want marriage to be your hindrance." He covered Chi Juntao's mouth as he tried to argue, "Hush, listen to me."

"At present, there is no institutional protection for same-sex marriage in China. Even if the country has recognized the legal effect of international marriage, it is only a recognition. It’s not worth adding a chain along the way.” Mu Xu said, “Our relationship is inherently special, and our start is to use each other. I use you to control Joaquin, and you use me as a bridge to connect the Chi family and Minister Zhou.”

Chi Juntao almost jumped up and denied it: "You fucking nonsense!"

"Where am I wrong?" Mu Xu asked.

"Nothing is right!" Chi Juntao said, "I like you, I have always..."

"That's a problem on another level." Mu Xu said, "I like you too." His expression was calm, and the light reflected in his pupils seemed to penetrate a layer of frosted glass, which was soft and peaceful. He emphasized again, "I I like you, so I can't watch you ruin my future."

Chi Juntao was dazed by the sudden confession, he stammered, "Ah, wait, are you fooling me again?"

"You say yes." Mu Xu found it interesting, put his elbows on the back of the chair, and looked sideways at Young Master Chi talking to himself.

"Where's your Electra complex?" Chi Juntao asked, pointing at himself, "You're definitely lying to me, you don't like my type."

"Which type are you?" Mu Xu wanted to explore how Chi Juntao viewed the relationship between them in his head.

Chi Juntao slumped his shoulders and said dejectedly, "Young people who are childish, bluffing, short-sighted and naive."

"So that's how you see yourself." Mu Xu said, stroking his fiancé's hair as if comforting an autistic big cat, "I used to raise a dog when I was a child, and that dog was my mother who took me to stray dogs. chosen by the family."

"Before I went, I thought about what kind of dog I would choose to bring home. I wanted a tall and mighty, black or brown short-haired dog, preferably a German shepherd or a horse dog." Mu Xu said, "I When I arrived at the home for stray dogs, there was a little yellow dog, a medium-sized dog with no breed, it was very smart, and it kept wagging its tail enthusiastically at me."

"It likes me, but it doesn't bark. Wherever I go, its head turns." Mu Xu said, "I took it home and raised it for ten years."

"Like is unexpected," Mu Xu said, "and within reason."
