Is this a surprise?
The long corridor of flowers was very romantic. On the side of the stage was a professional performer who was specially invited. The melodious tune of the violin and the light and pleasant piano made people feel intoxicated.
After all, it was rare for her own daughter to be able to marry into Luo Family and accept this marriage. Back then, she was afraid that her daughter would be too strong and not be able to find a satisfied man, but now, her worries were u
ecessary. Not only had she attracted a man who was younger than her, but this man was also so tall, handsome, and outstanding.
Sitting beside Lan Ruona was Mu Lin"s father, Mu Chengping. He was excited and happy too. However, the moment he and Lan Ruona looked at each other, his expression turned stiff.
Lan Ruona"s expression darkened immediately. Her fingers subconsciously tightened her dress. She felt that this man beside her really didn"t love her. He even seemed so stiff when she was looking at him. Did he have another woman?
Lan Ruona"s heart felt an inexplicable pain as if a needle had pierced into it.
"I thought you wouldn"t!" Lan Ruona said sarcastically, because Mu Chengping had also just returned.
"Why didn"t I come to my daughter"s wedding?" Mu Chengping answered calmly.
"I thought you didn"t want our family anymore. Your research is the most important thing." Lan Ruona"s expression became sorrowful and wronged.
Mu Chengping"s face also flashed with pain. He was silent for a long time before answering: "Actually, I"ve always wanted to come back, but every time I come back, it will make you hate me even more. I"m already afraid to come back!"
"Heh, this is a good reason!" Lan Ruona"s sarcasm grew even stronger.
"Don"t argue with your daughter at her wedding. She"ll be hurt." Mu Chengping didn"t want to continue chatting with her, it was just like that for the couple. With just a few words, they would start quarrelling. This was why the relations.h.i.+p between husband and wife was always so stiff and cold.
"Mu Chengping, I only ask you one question, are you ?? "Are there any other women outside?" Lan Ruona"s eyes turned red as tears welled up in her eyes.
Mu Chengping immediately became excited: "Of course not!"
"Is that the truth?" Lan Ruona didn"t believe him at all. After being separated for so many years, did he really have no other women? Who would believe it?
"That"s right, this is the truth!" Mu Chengping answered her without thinking.
"Alright then, if... If I ask you to apply for a transfer back, will you? " Lan Ruona finally believed in him, and she also decided to let go of her pride and dignity to beg her husband not to leave again.
Mu Chengping"s fingers, which were placed on his knees, trembled. Obviously, he found it hard to believe hearing those words.
"In the past, I was too proud and never took you seriously. I was wrong, I was not so strong and independent before. Other people have husbands to accompany them while they walk, but I didn"t even dare to step out the door. I really admired them." Lan Ruona"s voice became more and more sorrowful, as if she had endured too much for too long. If she were to say it now, she would lose face, and it would even seem like she was relieved.
Mu Chengping turned around and looked at her eyes that were filled with tears. He sighed and held Lan Ruona"s stiff fingers: "If you had spoken to me like this a few years ago, why would I have fled to such a far place? I thought you looked down on me and didn"t love me anymore. "
"If I don"t love you, why should I marry you? Give birth to your children? My brain isn"t filled with water. " Lan Ruona"s tears turned into a smile as a sense of relief rose up in her heart. It was as if someone was holding her hand tightly. This feeling was extremely comforting.
"Then don"t blame me in the future. We are all old. Live a good life." He also missed his new granddaughter. Soon, his daughter"s child would also be born, and he was also envious of others who would be able to accompany him in his children"s lives.
Lan Ruona didn"t expect herself to have the courage to admit defeat. What she received in return was a sincere relations.h.i.+p. She was struck dumb.
"Alright, I won"t complain anymore!" Lan Ruona"s face suddenly turned red as if she was a young married woman who had just gotten married.
The parents of Luo Family were also sitting there, but their lives were much more blissful than Lan Ruona"s. husband and wife had followed each other for many years already, and their relations.h.i.+p was strong to the point where they could abandon their two sons and move abroad to spend the latter years of their lives in peace. Thus, Luo Hening"s growth was completely guided by Luo Jinyu, and his parents just ignored the two brothers and, of course, as men, they wouldn"t unduly rely on their parents.
At this moment, the host a
ounced the official opening of the wedding ceremony.
Mu s.h.i.+ye was sitting in the front row with his daughter in his arms. Suddenly, his handsome face froze as he quickly grabbed Pei Anxin"s arm. "Tell me quickly, my eyes aren"t blurry. Is my dad holding my mom"s hand?"
At his warning, Pei Anxin suddenly looked in Lan Ruona"s direction. Then, with a face full of suspicion, she said, "You"re not seeing things. It"s true. The two of them are holding hands."
"What"s going on?" Mu s.h.i.+ye could not believe it. He was worried that his parents would make a huge scene at his sister"s wedding and then break up. At this moment, not only did he not argue, he even held her hand.
"What"s so surprising about that? Don"t you see that your father still loves your mother a lot?" Pei Anxin, who was a bystander, noticed with a glance that her father actually had a deep affection for Lan Ruona. Even though he had purposely concealed it, he couldn"t hide the expression in his eyes occasionally.
"Really? Why didn"t I notice? I keep having the feeling that they are the enemies of Number Three! " Mu s.h.i.+ye was still shocked. Maybe it was because he hadn"t seen his parents" loving appearances for a long time. At this moment, it didn"t seem like a surprise to him. It seemed to scare him.
Pei Anxin covered her mouth and snickered. "How can you think of your parents like that?"
"It was originally, but I watched them argue since I was young." Mu s.h.i.+ye shrugged and said helplessly.
"Well, their relations.h.i.+p is better now, isn"t it? Don"t think too much! " Pei Anxin knew that the family environment since she was young made Mu s.h.i.+ye suspicious of love. Back then, when she took the initiative to pursue him, she was beaten to the point that she couldn"t take it anymore.
