Looking at Su Xingran, who seemed completely oblivious to her own thoughts, Liang Shan sighed inwardly. This child was probably completely clueless, her mind solely focused on her studies.
Liang Yun breathed a sigh of relief; she knew what her brat was thinking. She noticed Liang Shan was also considering it; her youngest son was only a year younger than Xing Ran. Thankfully, Xing Ran had no such intentions. Her brat was so far away, it would be difficult for him to compete with her!
The conversation ended there; there was no point in asking someone so clueless. Su Xingran was finally able to have some peace and quiet. She knew that even now, there were still many girls who, once they reached adulthood, would have people coming to their door to introduce them to potential partners.
Su Xingran believes that even if she were to get married and have children someday, it wouldn't be now. She has many things to do and no time or inclination to discuss relationships.
Huang Zhenhua arrived just before the food was served; he had just come from the military compound. He had only learned of Lao Xiao's foolishness after hearing Su Xingran's words the previous night. He also felt sorry for Xiao Baiyu; such a good girl, ultimately driven to her death by her own husband and father.
No one at the dinner table brought up the past, and the two tables of people ate their meals in a lively atmosphere. No one expected that someone would suddenly appear here.
Gu Moting appeared before everyone, looking travel-worn, with bandages wrapped around his hands and hanging around his neck. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Xiao Xue.
Xiao Xue looked at the injured Gu Moting. Ignoring the many people around, she quickly walked up to Gu Moting.
"Mo Ting, how did you hurt your hand? Is there any other injury besides your hand?" Xiao Xue asked Gu Mo Ting anxiously.
Seeing his wife's worry for him, Gu Moting's eyes reddened slightly. Once he confirmed she was safe and sound, Gu Moting, who had been tense, finally relaxed a little. He restrained the urge to pull her into his arms.
Gu Moting's hoarse voice rang out, "Xue'er, I'm fine except for my hand, don't worry about me. Is there anything else wrong with the place where you were injured?"
Seeing everyone staring at them, Xiao Xue tugged shyly at Gu Moting's sleeve. Gu Moting quickly greeted everyone and was eventually seated at the men's table. But his gaze remained fixed on Xiao Xue.
The married women at the ladies' table were all staring at Xiao Xue. Huang Taihe's wife, Liao Shishi, said with a smile, "Look at Mo Ting, he looks like he's afraid his wife will run away. Before, everyone laughed at Mo Ting for his cold demeanor, saying he probably wouldn't even be able to find a wife."
"What girl would be happy looking at a face as cold as an ice block! Although he is quite handsome, his mouth is so tight that he hardly speaks. Every time his aunt mentions dating when he goes home, Mo Ting just says he doesn't want a girlfriend."
"Haha... Look at him now, does he look like he doesn't want a girlfriend? And the smile on his face on his wedding day, he probably hasn't had that many smiles in his life. Xiaoxue, is Moting very obedient to you? Does he talk a lot in private? Is his face always cold?"
Xiao Xue blushed crimson; how was she supposed to respond to that? She recalled her relationship with Mo Ting, from confirming their feelings to dating, then engagement, and finally marriage. Mo Ting wasn't at all like her sister-in-law had described. He was clearly very eloquent and persistent; aside from a few things he wouldn't listen to, he always listened to her, and he wasn't cold or aloof at all.
