On the surface, Tia seemed to have forgotten, and was happy every day, but how could she really forget that humiliating and embarrassing night? She would never forget it in her life. Sometimes, when the night was quiet, she would think of that night and numb herself with alcohol. The busy work the next day was her best way to forget.
Others might find it too busy and tiring, but she hopes to be as busy as possible so that she won't have any free time to think about those humiliating past events.
Moreover, although she had received higher education, she was still a traditional and conservative girl at heart. Her mother had told her since she was a child that girls should respect and love themselves, save their most precious things for their husbands, and never do those things with men before marriage.
The royal family of T country raised their princess with a more conservative approach, much like the ancient Chinese precepts for women. Tia, who grew up in this educational environment, was inherently conservative, and the trauma of that night was even more profound for her, making her feel even more inferior.
Furthermore, Tia still harbored some resentment towards Edward because he was also there that night, and he was in a relationship with Julie. Tia didn't know if Edward had been involved, and even if he was unaware, he might have been an accomplice. Therefore, Tia thought that Edward pursued her out of pity and to make up for past mistakes, not because he loved her.
What she wanted was love, not pity, so Tia always avoided this relationship. She had no plans to get married. Marriage was a double-edged sword; she was afraid of getting hurt and also afraid of hurting others. It was good enough for her to focus on her career alone.
The hotel was decorated in pink and filled with red roses, which Ye Qingqing loved. The bridal chamber was set up on the top floor of the hotel, where Ye Qingqing, Stefanie Sun, and the others were. Lu Mo was downstairs welcoming guests from all sides.
"I'm so glad to be able to attend your wedding banquet," Gongsun Lin joked, holding her youngest son.
Her eldest daughter, Mami, is a little younger than Niu Niu. She has black hair and blue eyes, and is as delicate as a Barbie doll. She has a particularly sweet and soft mouth, which is much more endearing than her mother. Kager always holds her daughter at home and is reluctant to let her go. She carries her everywhere, which often makes Gongsun Lin jealous of her daughter. She has complained to Ye Qingqing about it many times in private.
The youngest son, Lani, is only six months old and can't walk yet. He's chubby and has perfectly inherited his father Kagel's good looks. He has blond hair and fair skin, and apart from his black eyes, you can't see any of Gongsun Lin's genes in him. Lani is snuggled in Gongsun Lin's arms, blowing bubbles. His little paws are as chubby as lotus roots, and you just want to pinch them.
“I’m not getting married because I’m pregnant, so what’s the rush?” Ye Qingqing replied.
"Kagher and I are childhood sweethearts, it was a natural progression, you don't know anything."
Gongsun Lin rolled her eyes, not at all embarrassed. She'd already had two kids, what was there to be ashamed of? Lanni was whimpering and squirming in her arms. Ye Qingqing couldn't help but say, "Is he hungry? You should feed our son some milk."
"It's not mealtime yet, and he's definitely going to pee or poop. This little fatso eats a lot and poops a lot."
Gongsun Lin sniffed her son's bottom hard, her face contorted in disgust. She covered her nose and carried the chubby boy to the bathroom to change his diaper. Soon after, her scolding voice came from the bathroom, "Why did you have to poop when your daddy wasn't here? Don't you know your mother hates your poop the most... God... what did you eat? Your poop smells so bad, even your sister doesn't smell as bad as you..."
Ye Qingqing and the others were dumbfounded and amused by Gongsun Lin's rambling, which sounded like a mother hen's chatter. Gongsun Lin used to say that the creature she hated most was children, without exception, but now she was a mother of two and had to take care of their poop and pee. The sound of her face being slapped was really crisp!
