We're husband and wife NOW!
Fine, Mickael went to french consulate to get new documents, what i'm not surprised is no one apologized in French consulate, come on. Due to their mistake, we lost one day for our marriage process, it's straightly related with getting family booklet and visa and flight ticket,etc. Losing one day maybe means lose one week. Yep, Mickael often says that, it's true.
And today, we went to marriage register again, well, everything went on very well, all documents were correct and we were required to pay 9RMB, after we filled out our declareation form, we were taken into that marriage presenting hall, the staff announced we're husband and wife, congratulations. Only 5 seconds, suddently we're a legal couple in China.
