Chapter 230 I will take care of you for the rest of my life
The day we went to the cemetery was sunny.
Holding a bunch of white chrysanthemums, Shao Muyan led Yu Yan up the steps.
The cemetery is always so quiet, with rows of white tombstones standing tall, each one representing a life that has passed away.
Every time Yu Yan comes here, she feels an indescribable sense of peace.
It seems that even the biggest troubles disappear at times like this; in the face of life and death, all problems seem so insignificant.
Shao Muyan placed the bouquet in front of the grave. He squatted down and skillfully pulled away the weeds in front of the grave, saying, "I should have brought you here sooner."
"It's not too late to come now."
Yu Yan also squatted down, looked at her parents' photos, and smiled slightly: "I know you often come here to sweep the graves."
Shao Muyan turned around, the two shook hands, and smiled at each other.
This is a martyrs' cemetery, where loyal and courageous individuals and heroes who made significant contributions to the country and its people are buried.
In the future, Shao Muyan and Yu Yan may also be buried here.
Buried here, returning to dust.
"Actually, I have resented my parents." A trace of melancholy flashed in Yu Yan's eyes.
Shao Muyan listened to her quietly.
“I was young then. When I found out I was pregnant, I was completely stunned. I hesitated about whether to have an abortion. I had that thought for a moment.”
Yu Yan frowned slightly. "In the end, it's still my fault for not being careful enough."
Shao Muyan felt a pang in his heart, squeezed her hand, and said in a low voice, "It's my fault."
Yu Yan shook her head.
What happened back then was beyond their control, and she had long since let it go.
“When things weren’t going well, I blamed my parents for pushing me into marriage. But then I thought, what’s there to blame? In the end, it’s your own choice to choose your own path in life.”
Yu Yan stood up, looked at Shao Muyan and smiled gently, "If it weren't for that accident, we wouldn't have Shao Yun. Just thinking about him makes me feel that everything was worthwhile."
"And what about me?"
Shao Muyan raised his thick eyebrows, "Am I not worth it?"
Yu Yan was both amused and exasperated. Why was she getting jealous of her son? "Of course you deserve it, you deserve it the most."
Shao Muyan relaxed his brows in satisfaction.
Although Third Master is prone to jealousy, he is also easy to appease.
Shao Muyan grabbed Yu Yan's hand and reached into his pocket. Yu Yan touched a square box and suddenly looked up at Shao Muyan.
Shao Muyan and she took the box out of their pockets together.
"Open it and take a look."
Yu Yan already knew what was going on, but she still couldn't help but jump a few times, and her throat felt inexplicably tight.
Inside the box were two clean and elegant platinum wedding rings.
Yu Yan knew at a glance that it was her size.
No wonder Shao Muyan kept squeezing her hand and comparing it to hers these past few days.
"When was it ordered?" Yu Yan stared intently at the ring; she loved the style.
It's simple, yet it seems to contain all the emotions between them.
"The day we confirmed our relationship, I asked a designer to help me design it, and after the design was finished, I shamelessly asked Nan Song to carve it for me."
Yu Yan couldn't help but laugh, "Did President Nan take all the orders from our company this year?"
"Most people can't afford to hire her; she's too expensive."
Shao Muyan took out the ring and put it on Yu Yan's finger. The size was just right, and it looked perfect on her fair and slender finger. "Nan Song's craftsmanship is really amazing, no doubt about it."
Yu Yan also took out another one and put it on Shao Muyan.
The two held hands, and in front of Yu Yan's parents, Shao Muyan knelt down on one knee and kissed the spot where their rings overlapped.
"I will take care of you for the rest of my life, until death do us part."
Yu Yan's eyes welled up with tears. "I believe you."
The two embraced.
Cheng Yun asked Yu Yan how she dared to get married again, wasn't she afraid that her sincerity would be betrayed again?
Sincerity is fleeting, and human nature can never withstand testing.
But life is so short.
Cherish the people in front of you, love those you love, and those who truly love you.
Time never stops.

The entire wedding was lively and busy.
While others go on honeymoons for travel and vacation, Shao Muyan and Yu Yan were sent by their school to a key university in the Northwest region to help repair a large instrument.
This busy period lasted for a month.
Finally, after finishing their work, the school leaders had a change of heart and granted them a ten-day leave.
So for those ten days, Yu Yan and Shao Muyan embarked on a culinary adventure, since they had come to a food paradise.
On the fourth day, Hua Zhidao and Song Cheng also arrived, bringing Shao Yun with them.
The next day, Xiang Jingheng arrived with Xiang Chu.
A group of people gathered in the west of the city.
Shao Muyan was speechless. "My wife and I are here on our honeymoon. What are you doing here?"
"We're here for vacation."
Song Cheng said, "This isn't your home, why do you care whether we come or not?"
Hua Zhidao shoved a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) into his mouth and said, "Shut up and eat properly if you don't want to get beaten up."
Song Chenggang said "Oh," then asked, "How can you eat properly if you shut your mouth?"
"..."
The group burst into laughter.
Xiang Jingheng hadn't really planned to come. He didn't attend Shao Muyan and Yu Yan's wedding, only sent a wedding gift, and then spent three days drinking alone at home.
He got himself completely drunk.
I'm really depressed, and I'm also angry with myself.
The scale and grandeur of Shao Muyan and Yu Yan's wedding were so impressive that even though he didn't attend, he still saw it on various social media platforms.
Shao Muyan gave Yu Yan everything he could.
Many uninformed onlookers are saying that Yu Yan's second marriage is surprisingly going so well.
It has been proven that as long as a woman is outstanding enough, has money, resources, and social status, she can find any kind of man, and divorce is nothing to her.
Xiang Jingheng thought back to when he married Yu Yan, he didn't give her anything.
Looking back now, I realize I was truly a worthless person.
In his dream, Xiang Jingheng even dreamt that he took Xiang Chu to cause a scene at the wedding, loudly questioning in front of all the guests: "Yu Yan, are you really going to abandon your husband and children and marry someone else?"
...I can only dream about it.
If he really dared to cause trouble at the wedding, Shao Muyan would tear him apart on the spot, even without Yu Yan's help.
Besides, he wouldn't do something so tasteless.

After returning from Xicheng, Yu Yan and Shao Muyan resumed their non-stop work schedule.
Their lives are very regular and simple.
They usually live in the family building, which is convenient for them to go to work and for Shao Yun to go to school. On weekends, they can rest and go back to the villa or visit the two elderly people in Meisuli.
In addition to attending classes, Shao Yun and Xiang Chu also began receiving elite education in preparation for taking over the family business in the future.
As Xiang Jingheng gained more and more influence in Xiangshi Technology and solidified his position, he gradually lost power, and Chairman Xiang found himself increasingly powerless.
Since witnessing the fates of Gan Tai and Gan Xiaoxing, Mrs. Xiang has tempered her temper considerably. Especially after being ostracized by the social circle of wealthy women, her pride has waned, and she no longer dares to act recklessly.
That day, Shao Min came to the family compound for a meal. As soon as they met, she said to Yu Yan, "I heard that Mrs. Xiang's health is not good."
