Chapter 152: March 3rd is a good time to get married

Just said softly: "Thank you."

They talked a lot that night.

From their chat, Xiao Ansheng learned that this seemingly weak girl actually had a vast and tough world in her heart.

The snow stopped at dawn.

The rescue team found them.

When they parted, he felt empty inside as he watched her being taken away by Lu Tingyuan.

At that time, it was a family marriage and he had responsibilities on his shoulders, and he couldn't break free.

He thought about breaking off the engagement, but the complex interests between the Xiao and Yao families made it impossible for him to move forward.

He could only suppress the throbbing in his heart.

He thought that as long as he didn't see her, he would be able to forget her.

But he was wrong.

That smiling face has long been engraved in his bones and blood.

…

The tide of memories receded, and the wind in the cemetery became colder.

Xiao Ansheng couldn't help but tremble.

He held onto the tombstone and slowly stood up, his face pale.

"It was me...it was me who ruined her."

He murmured, his voice filled with endless regret.

Lu Tingzhou looked at him without any emotion.

"It's too late to say this now."

Xiao Ansheng suddenly looked up and grabbed Lu Tingzhou tightly with his cold hands, as if he was grabbing the last straw.

"It's not too late."

His voice was hoarse and full of begging.

"Tingzhou, let me see Wanwan."

"I want to meet her."

Lu Tingzhou's eyes were deep and his emotions could not be seen.

"Mr. Xiao, do you think now is a good time to recognize each other?"

"Wanwan is pregnant. Are you sure your presence won't cause any harm to her?"

"Also, is she willing to accept you?"

Xiao Ansheng's body stiffened.

yes.

What qualifications does he have to suddenly barge into his daughter's life?

He had been absent for twenty-five years, so why should he ask her to accept him immediately?

The madness on his face faded, leaving only an inextricable sadness.

"I……"

The man was almost choked with sobs and couldn't continue speaking. He knew he was not worthy.

Lu Tingzhou looked at him quietly for a long time before he slowly spoke.

"Mrs. Xiao seems to be very hostile to Wanwan."

Xiao Ansheng was stunned and his heart sank.

After just one meeting, Lu Tingzhou could see that Yao Ping was hostile towards Sang Wan.

How could he not know that after that meeting, Yao Ping had been bringing up old issues for a week.

He knew that if Yao Ping knew Sang Wan's true identity, she would never let it go.

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt her."

"I'll take care of Yao Ping's situation."

"Tingzhou, please, help me."

Lu Tingzhou saw the determination in his eyes and finally relented.

"I can try to tell Wanwan whether she is willing to see you or not. It depends on her wishes."

"But, Mr. Xiao, you have to remember what you said today."

"If your family dares to touch her hair, I don't care about the Xiao family or the Lu family, I just want them to pay with their lives."

His voice was soft, but it carried a chilling tone.

Xiao Ansheng nodded heavily.

"I promise."

——

The night deepens.

When Lu Tingzhou returned to the villa, the living room was brightly lit.

Sang Wan and the nurse were supporting Sang Zhengan on both sides and pacing slowly in the living room.

The old man was wearing loose home clothes and his gray hair was combed meticulously.

Every step he took was very strenuous, and beads of sweat were now oozing from his forehead.

"Grandpa, hold on a little longer. We'll take a break after we finish this circle."

Sang Wan encouraged softly, but her arms were shaking slightly from the exertion.

She was frail to begin with, and it was obviously difficult for her to support an adult man like this.

Seeing this, Lu Tingzhou's brows instantly tightened.

He strode over and said, "I'll do it."

Sang Wan was startled, turned around and saw him, her eyes narrowed.

"You're back."

"Go sit on the sofa."

Lu Tingzhou's voice deepened a bit, and he took Sang Zhengan's arm directly from her.

"Don't do this kind of thing in the future. I'll arrange for a nurse to come over."

His arms were strong and powerful, and he supported most of the old man's weight almost effortlessly.

Sang Zhengan turned his head and blinked at him with his cloudy eyes.

Lu Tingzhou met his gaze and smiled, "Grandpa, I'm Tingzhou."

Sang Wan curled her lips and smiled, then walked to the sofa and sat down obediently.

Every time this guy spoke to my grandfather, he would give a simple introduction like this, as if he was afraid that the old man didn't recognize him.

She curled up in the soft sofa, watching Lu Tingzhou patiently support her grandfather, step by step.

The man's tall figure was filled with reassuring strength at this moment.

The warm light from the living room shines on them, outlining a cozy silhouette.

Sang Wan's heart seemed to be filled with something.

Warm and swelling.

She knew that this peace and warmth were given to her by the man in front of her.

After dinner, Sang Wan took a shower and leaned against the head of the bed to video chat with Su Mo.

On the phone screen, Su Mo was wearing a facial mask, with only a pair of eyes showing, and was sighing.

"Wanwan, I feel like I'm almost done."

Sang Wan was amused by her.

"What's wrong? Did Pei Huaizhi bully you?"

"No."

Su Mo's voice sounded gloomy.

“Didn’t I tell you last time that when I went to dinner with him, that grandson of Shen Yubai sent over a bottle of wine?”

"Well, did Pei Huaizhi really misunderstand?"

After listening to Su Mo's words for the first time, Sang Wan also felt that what Shen Yubai did was inappropriate.

Such expensive wine was given as a gift and the meal was even free. Which man would not think too much about it?

The key point is when has Shen Yubai ever been so generous? She vaguely felt that something was wrong.

“I don’t know if it’s a misunderstanding or not, but Pei Huaizhi is convinced that I have a close relationship with Shen Yubai.”

Su Mo's voice became even more sad.

"Now, he wants me to help connect them and arrange a meeting with Shen Yubai to discuss some kind of cooperation."

Sang Wan felt that her brain was not enough.

“How come you’re in a relationship and it’s related to Shen Yubai?”

"How should I know?"

Su Mo scratched his hair frantically.

"In order to prove my innocence, I really agreed."

"What's the result? That bastard Shen Yubai, he's gone!"

"He said he was busy and didn't have time to have dinner with people he didn't know well."

"Do you think he is sick? He is the stumbling block in my love life."

Su Mo spoke in front of the screen, scolding Shen Yubai profusely.

Sang Wan listened and shook her head sympathetically.

"This matter... I really don't have much experience, so I can't give you any advice."

"well."

Su Mo sighed deeply and looked at her resentfully.

"Of course you're inexperienced."

"You are a little princess living in a honey pot. How can you understand the pain of mortals like us?"

Sang Wan was about to retort when the bathroom door opened.

Lu Tingzhou came out wiping his hair, wearing only a bath towel.

Drops of water slid down his well-defined chest and sank into the edge of the bath towel.

The smell of hormones hits me in the face.

He walked to the bed, leaned over naturally, and kissed Sang Wan on the forehead.

"What are you laughing at?"

His voice was low and hoarse, like someone just out of the shower.

Su Mo on the other end of the video instantly heard this deadly voice.

"cough……"

She immediately sat up straight.

"I won't disturb your married life anymore. I'm hanging up."

After saying that, the screen went black and the video was quickly disconnected.

Lu Tingzhou raised his eyebrows.

"She's quite sensible."

Sang Wan was amused by him and punched him.

Lu Tingzhou sat down on the edge of the bed, skillfully picked up the body lotion beside him, and squeezed it into his palm to warm it.

Then, his hands covered her calves.

His palms were warm and dry, with thin calluses, and he kneaded them neither lightly nor heavily.

Very comfortable.

Sang Wan squinted her eyes comfortably.

While Lu Tingzhou was helping her apply body lotion, he chatted with her casually.

“When is the studio going to open?”

"Well... let's wait until after the New Year."

Sang Wan answered lazily.

"I don't have any plans recently, which is perfect."

Lu Tingzhou's hand slowly moved upwards and slid across her round knees.

"Think about your wedding dress and evening gown and what styles you prefer."

Sang Wan's heart skipped a beat.

"Wedding dress?"

"Um."

Lu Tingzhou looked up at her, a gentle smile in his dark eyes.

"The wedding is scheduled for March 3rd."

His voice, like a mellow cello, struck her heartstrings in the quiet night.

"It is suitable for marriage."

March 3rd.

Good for getting married.

Sang Wan's heart was gently hit.

She raised her eyes and met Lu Tingzhou's bottomless eyes.

"wedding?"

Lu Tingzhou looked at her dazed expression, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

He reached out his hand, placed his warm palm on her head, and rubbed it gently.

"Why, are you stupid?"

"Why... why are you saying this suddenly?"

Sang Wan's cheeks felt hot and her heart was beating unnaturally fast.

Lu Tingzhou chuckled softly, his voice magnetic.

"Why have you never thought of asking me why I haven't had a wedding yet?"

Sang Wan pursed her lips.

How could she not have thought of it?

But she believed him.

"I trust you."

She said softly.

"You'll have arrangements."

This simple sentence almost made the tenderness in Lu Tingzhou's eyes overflow.

His little fox is not only smart, but also trusts him very much.

"Well, I have plans."

He paused, his voice softening.

"I don't want you to be without your family at our wedding."

Sang Wan's breathing hitched.

Lu Tingzhou's gaze fell towards the living room.

"Grandpa works very hard."

"By that day, he should be able to hold your hand and hand you over to me personally."

The man's voice was steady, but it was like a stone, creating ripples in Sang Wan's heart.

She thought he was just too busy with work.

She thought he was worried that she was too tired from being pregnant.

It turns out that this is what he was thinking.

It was the warmest scene she had never dared to hope for.

What Lu Tingzhou didn't say was that he also found her biological father.

If grandpa's health really doesn't allow it, perhaps that person can do it.

Sang Wan's eyes instantly turned red.

Heat surged up and my vision became blurry.

All the grievances she suffered over the years came from the so-called "family".

The indifference and calculations of Xu Shiming's family were like thorns piercing her heart.

And the man in front of her gave her the wholehearted love she had never had before.

It is tolerance, it is selflessness, it is the source of all her sense of security.

She suddenly stood up and threw herself into his arms.

I pressed my cheek against his warm, strong chest, listening to his steady, strong heartbeat.

"Woo..."

Suppressed cries escaped from the throat.

Like a child who has suffered injustice and finally found a home.

Lu Tingzhou's body stiffened, then he stretched out his long arms and held her tightly in his arms.

His hand gently stroked her back.

Without saying a word, he told her with his actions that he was here.
