Chapter 753: Can’t Let Him Down
"You're not at home?" The deep voice of the person she was familiar with came from the phone.
Su Xiao paused and said, "Well, I... I'm outside. I... am with my brother."
"Your brother? Yixuan?"
"Um."
Yun Che was silent for a moment after hearing this.
After a while, Su Xiao also asked, "What's the matter with you looking for me?"
"Today is our wedding anniversary. I'm planning to take the kids out for dinner tonight. What do you think?"
Wedding anniversary?
yes!
It happens to be today!
But Su Xiao really didn’t remember!
Yun Che didn't seem to care and continued to ask, "You and your brother... don't you have anything special to do? When can you come home?"
"Uh, that's about it, it's okay."
"That's good. You go home first. I'll be there around 5 o'clock. You and the kids can get ready."
"Okay, I understand."
After the call ended, Su Xiao looked at Zhao Yixuan and said subconsciously, "He said today is our wedding anniversary and we're going out to celebrate tonight. Do you want to come with us?"
"Oh, that's your family's celebration, why should I go there?"
"You're my family too."
"I know, but on such a special day, of course you guys should just go out with your family. As for my meal, there will be plenty of opportunities. Next time you can specially invite me out for a meal." Zhao Yixuan said with a smile.
Everything has really returned to the way it was before, as if those things that happened just now had never happened.
But Su Xiao still felt the pain in his heart, so she could never be truly happy. When she looked at him, her eyes were unconsciously filled with heartache.
Zhao Yixuan touched her face and said solemnly, "Hui'er, live a good life with Yun Che. You may encounter many storms in the future, but as long as your hearts are firmly together, nothing can break you apart."
"What about you? Since you don't plan to rekindle your relationship with Huan'er, can you try to cultivate some feelings with your sister-in-law? Your sister-in-law is so nice. In fact, it is not difficult for you to give her some love. Anyway, you played together very well when you were young." Su Xiao couldn't help but persuade.
Zhao Yixuan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Well, I'll try, but don't worry, don't worry about our affairs anymore. Also, there's no need to sympathize with her for this matter. I heard that she and you had a bad argument last time. There's no need, Hui'er. You are the treasure of our family. Even if she is your sister-in-law, there is no need to please her. You have your dignity."
Su Xiao was moved and said, "I'm fine. Since she is my sister-in-law, everything I did was naturally for you. Besides, her words were just harsh. It's not like I haven't heard them before."
Zhao Yixuan looked at her and thought to himself, silly girl, I don’t want you to be wronged like this. Qu Si is a princess, but you are also the princess of our family. Moreover, you are the treasure that Yun Che holds in his heart. Yun Che will not allow you to be wronged.
However, Zhao Yixuan didn't say it, he just smiled lightly to lighten the atmosphere.
"Let's go home and cheer up. Since Ache has made special arrangements, tonight should be very exciting." Zhao Yixuan has already started the car.
The car moves forward.
Su Xiao looked at Zhao Yixuan silently, but the sadness in her heart did not diminish in the slightest.
She and Yun Che were in love and happy, but her brother...
No one spoke along the way. After returning home, Zhao Yixuan asked Su Xiao to get off the car. He had something else to do in the west of the city, so he didn't plan to go into the house.
Su Xiao looked at him and said in a choked voice, "Brother..."
Zhao Yixuan, however, was all smiles. "Still crying? If your voice gets hoarse, Ah Che will come after me. Go wash your face and get some rest. Look at you, if you go out with the charming Ah Che, you'll be on par with him, if not better than him. Do you know how popular your husband is out there? You should look your best when you go out with him and tell those women not to covet your husband!"
He is just that kind of person. He is obviously very sad in his heart, but he acts as if nothing is wrong, just because he doesn't want to infect others with his sadness, especially he doesn't want her to be sad with him.
Su Xiao also calmed down and said, "I understand. I will listen to you!"
"Remember to take a picture and send it to me. I also want to know how you celebrate tonight."
"Yes, I will."
The brother and sister parted ways.
Su Xiao got out of the car, looking back every step of the way, and all she saw was him waving at her with a smile on his face.
Although she promised him that she would no longer be sad, it was not easy to actually do so. Whenever she thought of his helplessness, struggle, and choices, she felt heartbroken. She felt sorry for him, Huan'er, and her sister-in-law.
Therefore, when Yun Che returned home and saw Su Xiao, he could not hide his sorrow. However, he did not ask her directly, but used other things to divert her attention.
Yunche was on the top floor of a landmark skyscraper in Baocheng. There happened to be a meteor shower tonight, and it could be seen clearly there.
The children were all very happy, especially Yanyan, who had recently been doing research in aerospace. Yun Che also brought a telescope over, and the little guy had been standing in front of the telescope, fiddling with it. Yangyang and Nini would occasionally run over, and he would sensibly let his younger siblings see it, and he would analyze and explain it to them very seriously and professionally.
Xixi is still young and has always been with Su Xiao, but she is also very happy.
Except for Su Xiao, who was worried and looked sad.
Yun Che walked over, kissed her hair, and asked, "Why did you suddenly go out with your brother today?"
Su Xiao stared at him blankly, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
“You’ve cried before? Was it because of me again?” Yun Che reached out and touched her eyebrows.
Su Xiao quickly shook her head, "No, it's none of your business, don't think too much about it."
“Whose business is that?” Yun Che continued to ask.
Su Xiao met his sharp yet caring gaze, hesitated for a moment, and said hesitantly, "I'll tell you when we get home tonight, okay?"
“Okay, let’s talk about it tonight when we get home, but you have to be cheerful now. Although the children are young, they are very smart. They know everything about you.” Yun Che did not ask any further questions.
Su Xiao was also clear about this, especially Yan Yan. In the past, Yan Yan would notice any slight unhappiness she had experienced at the first moment.
Su Xiao looked at the children who were still so excited, and suddenly felt guilty.
Yes, those were established facts, and even if she was gloomy now, it couldn't change it. It was rare for the family to come out and play, and it was rare for Yun Che to take time out of his busy schedule to arrange this special celebration. She couldn't let him down.
Su Xiao's mood finally relaxed a little. As the children laughed and talked happily, a smile gradually appeared on her face.
Yun Che secretly watched her and breathed a sigh of relief.
The good times are engraved in the long river of history and in each other's memories.
