Chapter 1489 Forgive the Late Wedding Dress
At this moment, Chu Yan's face almost showed a look of nostalgia.
He rested his chin on the back of his hand and murmured,
"It's been a long time since I heard my old friend call me by this name."
Cheng Yuqing, who was standing opposite him, was already so shocked that her face turned pale. She stared at him intently, and it took her a long time to wake up to the cold reality of her situation. She said in a hoarse voice,
"Chu Yan, what on earth do you want to do!"
"I just wanted to chat with you for a while,"
Chu Yan smiled slightly, this smile was almost innocent and lonely. He looked at the person opposite him and said slowly,
"You know what? During the last period of my uncle's life, even in a foreign country far away from the imperial capital, we were hiding like beggars."
His voice, like some kind of pure metal, echoed slowly in the closed basement, reverberating like a cool breeze. This breeze blew from the distant past, bringing with it scattered hints of desolation and embarrassment, as well as low nostalgia.
"But even though I was living like a beggar, I would always hear him calling your name in my dreams during those nights when I was sleeping on the streets. Sometimes his tone was urgent and angry, and sometimes it was very gentle."
Cheng Yuqing was stunned, tears seemed to be out of her control and flowed out of her eyes in an instant.
Like a conditioned reflex, when the wound hidden deep in her heart is triggered, it will automatically flow out, carrying with it years of accumulated pain and longing, which even she herself cannot control.
Chu Yan looked at her blank face, and did not pay special attention to her tears, but continued,
"By the way, I have a gift for you."
"Didn't your uncle go to Country A to order a wedding dress for you? Even though he didn't manage to bring it back for you to wear, he did buy the dress."
"When he returned to China to kidnap Cheng Zhiyuan, he specifically asked me to keep the wedding dress for him. If there is a chance in the future, I will give it to you."
Memories struggled out from many years ago and appeared vaguely in my mind.
His uncle, who was always a playboy, stroked the white gauze skirt with his hand and smiled a rare sad smile.
"After all, I made it to her size, and no one else can wear it."
After a pause, he lowered his head again and said vaguely,
"Forget it. By the time you see her, she might already be married. Her figure will definitely be out of shape after marriage. Besides, her husband will definitely not allow her to wear a wedding dress bought by someone else."
The handsome man looked up at the wedding dress he had worked so hard for half a month to get, and touched it with cherishment.
“What a pity.”
Memories blurred in the man's carefree yet regretful smile, while the woman in front of him was crying with tears and snot all over her face under the dim light.
But she never made a sound. All the sobs were stuck in her throat, and her body was twitching with the suffocation.
"Even though he said that, he didn't burn or throw away the wedding dress. I know he still wants to see you wearing it."
Chu Yan looked at her and said softly,
"I'll keep the wedding dress and give it to you later. It will be considered as returning it to its original owner."
Cheng Yuqing swallowed a sob, opened his mouth with a hoarse voice,
"Thanks."
"It's me who should thank you."
The man smiled slightly.
"I know that if you hadn't secretly collected my uncle's body, he would have drifted on the seabed forever. Although he always said that he hated the entire Cheng family, I know that if you had seen him off, even if your last name was Cheng, he would have been willing in his heart."
"After all, he loved you so much when he was alive."
