Xian Mingyu put his arm around Mo Niannian's shoulder, which was considered an answer to Annie's question for her, "Anyway, you will definitely be able to attend the wedding. Don't worry about our affairs."
"Alright, alright, then we'll wait for your good news."
Mo Niannian glanced at Xuan Mingyu, not understanding the meaning behind his words.
Of course, girls would have some fantasies about that kind of thing. Besides, they are already so close, so why is he still so vague about marriage with her?
Could it be that he never intended to marry her at all? Since Youyou has already been recognized by the Xian family, is she, as his birth mother, no longer that important?
She took his hand away, somewhat unhappy, and buried her head to continue eating the food in her bowl.
Hsien Ming-yu sensed her displeasure but did not expose her on the spot.
There are a lot of people here, so I'll wait until we get back to properly comfort her.
8:30 p.m.
Having had enough fun, Ji Shushu, being pregnant, needed to go home and rest early, so she had to leave first.
Before leaving, Ji Shushu held Mo Niannian's hand reluctantly, wishing she could go back to the days when they were studying together, spending every day together. Now that she was married, she could no longer be as free as before.
"Xiaobai, I'm leaving now. We exchanged phone numbers. Be sure to call me when you have time, and we can meet up for shopping again."
Mo Niannian glanced at Ji Shushu's large belly and felt a little embarrassed. Was it really appropriate for her to go shopping in her current state? "Okay, sure." Mo Niannian could only bite the bullet and agree.
Not long after Ji Shushu and Gu Yao left, Annie and Pei Huai went upstairs, took the two little ones home, and left as well.
Little Youyou has been playing for a long time and doesn't want to leave.
At first, Xuan Mingyu and Mo Niannian indulged her and let her play a little longer.
There should be limits to playing. It's already past nine o'clock and Xiaoyouyou is still staying in Xiaoxigua's room and won't leave. Mo Niannian tried to forcefully pick her up, but Xiaoyouyou just lay on the ground and threw a tantrum, refusing to go back no matter what.
She burst into tears, and neither Xian Mingyu nor Mo Niannian could do anything about it.
"Niannian, I think we should have Youyou stay at our house tonight. Anyway, Xiaoxigua and Youyou go to the same kindergarten, so we can send them both there together," Mu Qingyan suggested.
"How could I possibly do that? Youyou, she..." Before Mo Niannian could finish speaking, Xuan Mingyu immediately and decisively denied it, "No way!"
“Youyou is a girl, how can she sleep in the same room as a boy?”
Uh... they're just kids... what does it matter if they're so young...
Mu Qingyan and Mo Niannian were speechless for a moment.
Xuan Mingyu insisted on taking Xiao Youyou home, but Xiao Youyou cried even harder, refusing to leave. Mo Niannian felt heartbroken watching this.
"Okay, okay, we won't go. Be good, Yoyo, don't cry. Daddy and Mommy are going back now. You'll stay here by yourself. You must listen to your uncles and aunties, okay?"
"Nian Nian..."
Before Xian Mingyu could say anything more, Mo Niannian pulled him aside. "Oh, don't make a mountain out of a molehill. It's fine. Just let Youyou stay here. It won't do any harm."
Although he was reluctant to let his precious daughter stay there for one night, Hsien Ming-yu had no choice but to comply since his wife had spoken.
***
Mo Niannian and Xian Mingyu said goodbye to Chi Hao and Mu Qingyan and drove back home.
It's 10 PM now.
It started to rain, a light drizzle that gradually grew heavier.
The roads here are quite dark, with few streetlights and not many vehicles, but the dangers that come with rainy days must be taken seriously.
Throughout the journey, Mo Niannian didn't say a word to Xian Mingyu. She turned her head to look out the car window, feeling somewhat annoyed.
Are you still angry with me?
Mo Niannian was taken aback for a moment, "No, what's there to be angry about?"
"Actually, I really want to give you a grand wedding and announce to the world that you are my wife, Xian Mingyu's wife, and the mother of my precious daughter. But... I don't dare to think about this until you regain all your memories."
"Why? Is regaining my memories really that important for our marriage?"
"Yes, it's very important."
Mo Niannian really couldn't understand what would happen if she didn't regain her memories. Even if she did, what difference would it make? At least they were together now, and they were happy every day. Moreover, he had told her many things she didn't remember, so she understood her past self and had long since forgiven him.
So what obstacles still exist between them?
Does this mean... we have to wait a few more years until Youyou grows up, has her own ideas, and becomes articulate, only to find out that her parents aren't married yet, and they don't even know whether or not to put her as her mother's name on the family records?
"Whatever you want..." It wasn't that she was in a rush to marry him right away, but at the very least, he should give her an explanation and a timeframe, right?
At first, she didn't pay much attention, thinking that since she was young, it didn't matter when she got married and registered her marriage. But recently, every time the three of them went out together, she felt like an unjust companion. Mo Niannian always felt a tightness in her chest and felt very uncomfortable.
In his heart, what did he really regard her as? She was always so obedient to him, listening to everything he said and completely dependent on him.
But what happens in the end? You just take advantage of her, then leave, right?
Was she just a tool for him to vent his frustrations?
