Chapter 1006 - 404: She and Her, We Will All Be Together. (5k Subscriptions Please!)
Riverside.
Fireworks were dazzling, brilliantly rising into the sky, and only faintly could the two figures embracing by the river be seen.
An Nuannuan stood alone quietly on the rooftop of the second floor, her clear eyes seemingly penetrating the night and seeing the distant scenery with the moonlight.
She hadn't changed out of her wedding dress yet, the pure white wedding dress making her appear holy and cool.
"Nuannuan."
An Shanhai came up. As one of the hosts today, he had drunk a lot and walked with a bit of a wobble. Seeing his daughter quietly in a daze, he said, "Where's Musen? Why are you here alone?"
An Nuannuan walked over to support her father's arm, leading him to a chair on the rooftop and pouring him some tea: "He's attending to the guests, he'll be back soon."
An Nuannuan handed him the tea with a smile.
An Shanhai took the tea, looked at his daughter's smile, and then glanced in the direction where she had been staring dazedly earlier.
It was late at night, and he could only see the dark riverside night scene, but he could still guess a bit.
"Today, that girl with the surname Yao didn't show up."
An Shanhai turned the teacup, observing his daughter's expression, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Did that kid go to find her?"
An Nuannuan's eyes flickered slightly, then she nodded with a smile.
"Really!?"
An Shanhai's anger instantly flared up. Although he knew the boy's issues weren't easy to solve, his good daughter always had her mind set on being with him.
Before his daughter had any grievances, and apart from this matter, there really was no fault to find with Xu Musen.
As long as his daughter could be happy, he could turn a blind eye; but today was their engagement day, and this bastard boy left his fiancée to find another girl?
"That bastard boy, what did he tell me? Nuannuan, you... you wait, I'll go drag him back!"
An Shanhai, already drunk, was about to stand up in anger to grab Xu Musen, but just as he was about to rise, An Nuannuan gently pressed him back into the chair.
"Dad."
An Nuannuan softly said, "I asked him to go."
"What..." An Shanhai wiped his dizzy forehead, "Nuannuan, but today is your engagement day, how could you let him..."
"The engagement banquet has already ended smoothly, hasn't it?"
An Nuannuan raised her hand with a smile, and the diamond ring Xu Musen had personally placed on her finger, was shining brightly in the night and the fireworks.
"But this is unacceptable, that bastard boy, does he think my daughter is easy to bully! The engagement banquet is over, relatives and friends are here, if he dares to break his promise, I won't spare him!"
"Dad."
An Nuannuan softly called again. She still showed no sign of anger, her gaze drifting toward the riverside in the darkness, as if seeing through the night and time.
The corners of her mouth curved slightly: "No, I understand him better than she does, even better than he himself understands. The person he sets his mind on, he won't let go, not even if it kills him."
As she spoke, she raised her left hand, the diamond ring on her ring finger shining brilliantly in the night.
"Besides, he's mine now, and this time, I won't let him go, and he can't escape."
She clenched her fist, making the diamond ring on her finger more prominent. The gleam reflected in her clear eyes, giving an impression of something unfathomable.
Her voice carried no hint of stubbornness or self-pity, just a calm confidence that everything was under control. ƒreewebɳovel.com
She finished and then lowered her head, looking at her stunned father with a teasing expression and a sweet Sichuan accent: "And Dad, he's not a bastard boy, though a bit of a scoundrel... but he's your son-in-law now. You have to treat him well, otherwise, I won't take your side in the future."
An Shanhai stared at his daughter in a daze, suddenly feeling that his precious daughter, who had almost been twenty years with him, seemed a bit unfamiliar.
He had always worried that her naive and clumsy personality might get her bullied, but now... it seemed uncertain who would bully whom.
Especially that last sentence.
Looking at his daughter, dressed in a wedding dress and already quietly grown into a young lady, along with that adorable yet slightly overbearing Sichuan accent.
Reminded him of her mother.
He remembered twenty years ago, on their wedding day, she also wore a white wedding dress, hands on her hips, twisting his drunkenly ear.
"Listen, even though we're married, if you're not good to me or disobey me, I'll twist your pig ears off! Understood?"
But after marriage, this Sichuan spicy girl was always as gentle as water.
Of course, she was still unkind when she said she'd twist his ears...
The more he thought about it, the more he sank into memories. If not for that accident, how wonderful would it be...
...
At this moment, riverside.
Yao Mingyue slowly calmed her emotions, moving away from Xu Musen's embrace. She looked up at Xu Musen's eyes.
"Are you trying to persuade me to stay?"
Yao Mingyue bit her lip lightly. Her determination was unshakeable, but if she had to listen to someone, he was the only one.
Xu Musen helped wipe her watery eyes, a gentle smile: "Are you asking me? Have you ever listened to what I say?"
