Tomorrow is the day Lin Xiao and Song Qingliu will hold their wedding.
Undeterred, Feng Qi went to harass his future sister-in-law, Song Qingliu.
He questioned Song Qingliu, "Qingliu, you had feelings for me back then, didn't you? I understand what happened between you and Feng Xiao, and I won't pursue it."
"Now that I'm back, I promise you, from now on, I will only love you. Please don't marry Feng Xiao, okay? I'm begging you. You're all I have left."
As he spoke, Feng Qi reached out to hug Song Qingliu.
Song Qingliu stared at Feng Qi with her dark eyes, her heart unmoved. She took a step back, not understanding why she had been so blind to have fallen for a man like Feng Qi.
"That's enough, Feng Qi. I'm marrying your brother tomorrow, so stop saying these meaningless things."
"I don't love you. The person I love is your brother. His name used to be Lin Xiao, and now it's Feng Xiao."
"I'm getting married tomorrow, don't ruin my mood, just leave now and don't force me to say anything unpleasant."
Feng Qi frowned so deeply it could trap a fly, glaring at Song Qingliu with hatred, and said angrily:
"Song Qingliu, you fickle woman! You used to follow me around like a shadow, and I wouldn't even give you a second glance. Now you're blind and have fallen for a substitute. It's laughable! With your love-struck mind, the Song Group will be ruined in your hands sooner or later!"
Enraged, Song Qingliu raised her hand and slapped Feng Qi across the face.
Snap—
"Get out of here! Lin Xiao is a thousand times, ten thousand times better than you. I would be willing to marry him even if it meant exchanging the Song Group for him. Is it any of your business?"
"I never imagined that the person I had a crush on when I was young would be so despicable. I really want to gouge my own eyes out."
Even after driving Feng Qi away, Song Qingliu was still trembling with anger. Suddenly, she desperately wanted to see Lin Xiao.
However, there is an unwritten rule in Jiangcheng's high society that if a relationship is to last, the newlyweds cannot meet the day before their wedding.
Song Qingliu texted Lin Xiao to find out he was home, then drove to find him.
Lin Xiao was at home at the time, working on his speech for the wedding the next day, typing away and revising on the keyboard, completely unaware that Song Qingliu was coming.
Half an hour later, Lin Xiao received a call from Song Qingliu.
"Hey, Qingliu, what's wrong?" Lin Xiao's voice was deep and gentle.
Song Qingliu stood outside Lin Xiao's house, looking at Lin Xiao's room. She pursed her lips and smiled, "It's nothing, Xiao, I just suddenly missed you a lot."
Lin Xiao chuckled and said, "Okay. I'll come pick you up first thing tomorrow morning, and then we can wake up in the same bed every day."
Song Qingliu smiled and nodded.
Raindrops hit her forehead, and when she looked up, she saw even more raindrops hitting her face. Only then did she realize that it was raining.
She wanted to get in the car.
At this moment, Li Yaru came out of the house and saw her future daughter-in-law. She was stunned at first, but then she thought of something and hurriedly sent Sister Sun to invite her in.
Song Qingliu hesitated. She had originally intended to avoid the Feng family, but she didn't expect her future mother-in-law to see her anyway. It was just as she feared.
She guessed that Li Yaru might say something to her, and entered the house with trepidation.
To everyone's surprise, Li Yaru wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled, took her hand, and handed her a tissue to wipe her face.
"Auntie, I think I should go back. It wouldn't be good if Ah Xiao came down and we ran into each other," Song Qingliu whispered.
Li Yaru had seen Song Qingliu speak at an industry conference before; that confident and dazzling Song Qingliu was completely different from the young girl in front of her.
It was clear that she truly loved her son, and Li Yaru was genuinely happy.
So she took her future daughter-in-law's hand and prepared to go upstairs, instructing Sister Sun to scout ahead first, "Sister Sun, tell the young master not to come out, Qingliu is here."
Sister Sun exclaimed "Oh!" and ran upstairs.
Song Qingliu blinked her eyelashes, blushed, and her heart pounded wildly.
She hadn't expected her mother-in-law to be so understanding, and she felt even closer to Li Yaru.
A moment later, under Li Yaru's arrangement, Lin Xiao and Song Qingliu began to talk through a door.
Li Yaru led Sister Sun downstairs, not wanting to disturb the two of them.
"Qingliu, what brings you here?" Lin Xiao's voice was clearly excited.
Song Qingliu fidgeted with her fingers and whispered, "I... just want to be closer to you."
Lin Xiao's heart softened terribly. Leaning against the door, he said softly, "I'm leaning against the door now, and you lean against the door too, so we can hug each other with our backs to each other."
Song Qingliu blushed to the roots of her neck. She never expected Lin Xiao to be so gentle. She leaned against the door as instructed, her lips curving upwards involuntarily.
One month after the wedding.
Lin Xiao went to Yunnan Province to inspect projects, and the trip lasted a week.
Song Qingliu went to pick them up at the airport.
The plane was delayed for more than three hours. The scene of the plane crash kept flashing through Song Qingliu's mind. She was so worried that her heart was in her throat. Every five minutes, she would check the flight information with the airport staff.
Only when she saw Lin Xiao's tall and upright figure appear did Song Qingliu's heart settle down, and she let out a long sigh of relief.
She ran quickly towards her husband, her eyes instantly welling up with tears, and said with a smile, "Honey, you're finally back. I'm so glad you're alright and safe."
As she spoke, she nestled into Lin Xiao's arms.
Lin Xiao was deeply moved. He pulled his new wife into his arms, kissed the top of her head, and said in a low voice, "Yes, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have worried you, my wife."
Xu Chen, who was standing to the side, felt a mix of emotions.
