On the day of the engagement, the sky was clear and the snow that had been falling in the town for several days had finally stopped.
Xihe wore a bright red Chinese-style dress, which was both warm and beautiful. Holding the hand of Yan Ke, she held an engagement ceremony in the presence of the people of the town.
"Nervous?"
“A little bit~”
"hehe."
Xihe quietly gave him a crutch and whispered, "What are you laughing at? Aren't you nervous?"
Yan Ke, introduced by Mr. Tan, toasted the uncle across from him with a glass of wine. After drinking, he stepped back and whispered, "Well, I'm nervous too."
His eyes were narrowed with a smile, and his whole body exuded joy.
Xihe watched and couldn't help laughing.
Many people came to the engagement party, including relatives from the Tan family, their hometown, and the town. Almost all the aunts and uncles who were at home came, and the atmosphere was as lively as a wedding.
"Oh, her sister-in-law, this is your eldest girl's boyfriend? So handsome and rich!"
"Look at this banquet, the table is full of delicious dishes, honest and generous!!"
"The engagement is already such a grand affair, what will it be like if it's a marriage?"
Everyone was talking, and they looked even more excited than the Tan family themselves.
Tan's parents were also grinning from ear to ear. This scene of their eldest girl really made them proud, especially since their leader was sitting at the main table. Oh, it was really incredible.
The adults drank and chatted, while the children ran around the field.
The entire engagement banquet did not end until the evening, but the scene decorated for the engagement was lit up at night, which was magnificent and eye-opening.
Many people took out their mobile phones and started taking photos and live streaming, and then sent them out.
Xihe also saw it, but she was not a celebrity, and neither was Yan Ke, so even though there were frontal photos of them in the videos released, the two of them simply ignored it.
She played with the man's big hand: "When are you leaving?"
Calculating the time, it has been one or two weeks since he came back. He still has projects in hand, so he can't stay too long.
Suddenly, Xihe thought again: "When did you start your company?"
Not to mention Yan's parents, she was also kept in the dark about this matter. She was shocked when she heard about the distribution of property that day, thinking that this guy had done something illegal.
Yan Ke tilted his head and kissed her cheek: "She just woke up not long ago."
If she hadn't forced him out, he would probably follow the world's plan and study and work step by step. Now, of course, he did whatever he wanted to make her comfortable.
Holding the person in his arms: "I can't really let you support me for the rest of my life."
Xihe laughed sullenly: "It's not like you haven't asked me to raise you before."
Yan Ke was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing: "You're right! In that case, I'll have to trouble you, the boss lady, to take care of the domestic company. I can focus on my studies."
Xihe looked him up and down: "Really? You're willing to let me work so hard?"
Yan Ke nodded: "I'm willing to give it up."
Leaning over, he pressed down little by little: "Besides, I want to make you work harder."
Xihe: “…”
The north wind blew outside the window, and the temperature in the room gradually rose. Yan Ke was unusually gentle tonight. He stroked the woman's slender back, kissed her softly in the ear, and whispered, "Xihe, I feel like I love you even more."
Xihe's face flushed, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she was so overwhelmed with joy that she couldn't utter a word.
A few days later,
Yan Ke is always sticking with Xihe.
The Tan family was always embarrassed by the quarrels between the two, but they were very pleased with their relationship status. They were very worried at first, but now seeing the two getting along so closely, they felt relieved.
Mother Tan held Xihe's hand and said, "My dear, I am very happy that you are where you are now."
Xihe looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
Mother Tan's face was filled with worry. "But marriage is not just about feelings. Our family's conditions are limited. We can't help you. Girl, you have to rely on yourself from now on."
"You are smart and good at studying, so study hard and make a name for yourself."
"We can't always be high-flyers. We have to have our own shining points, right?"
"Make yourself outstanding. Even if you two are no longer together one day, you can still support yourself and not be in such a mess." She smiled and smoothed the hair by Xihe's ear with a gentle look. "Yan Ke is so good. Mom thinks that since you fell in love with him at first sight, it will probably be difficult for you to fall in love with someone who is not as good as him in the future."
"So, you have to work harder now, okay?"
Xihe's heart softened and she nodded seriously: "Mom, don't worry, I will work hard and won't let it go on like this." Mother Tan was really thinking about her.
Mother Tan smiled and said, "That's fine."
Soon, it was the day for Yan Ke to leave.
Yan Ke declined the Tan family's idea of sending someone off, and took Brother Tan's car to the airport. Then he hugged Xihe and turned to enter the ticket gate.
The two people's behavior was indifferent, which confused Brother Tan.
Xihe looked at him and smiled: "Brother, let's go, our parents are still waiting at home."
Brother Tan blinked and nodded: "Let's go."
Xihe is still updating her novels normally, and the entire Tan family knows that she makes money from this, so they never disturb her when she is working, and only occasionally bring her a drink or fruit.
"Dear God" is the novel that Xihe is currently conceiving.
The few books she wrote before were basically written to make quick money based on current trends. Only one of them sold copyright, and the others relied on subscriptions.
Now, Xihe plans to officially start the reform.
The noisy sounds outside the window gradually quieted down. As the New Year passed, many people gradually left the small town and returned to the big city to make money and make a living, waiting to come back for the next Spring Festival.
At this time, Tai Shu, who was far away at home, was crying like a torrential rain.
As soon as the holiday started, she found out that the guy named Jin was coming back, so she got dressed up excitedly and went out. However, the guy didn't show up for the class reunion once, twice, or anything like that.
Today, she finally found out that he was out, and she happily went to meet him again.
As it turned out, that guy wanted to go back to school!!!
Her high heels were broken from running, and she could only just see a tall figure getting into a taxi. Tai Shu: "..."
She took out her phone while crying: "Luanluan, I'm so sad~"
Xihe: ???
After listening to it, uh...
How could she put it? She thought for a moment and said, "I guess you two are really not meant to be together."
Tai Shu took the tissue handed to her by the person next to her and cried loudly: "Wow, I feel so miserable, how could I be here... Hey, Jiang Yu, why are you here?"
The young man's gentle voice came: "I'm just passing by. Are you okay?"
Xihe blinked. Passing by? He must be looking for someone. Tsk, she hung up the phone directly. Anyway, she had someone to comfort her now, so she didn't need her anymore.
