Tan Xiangchen poured a glass of juice for Li Yuzhu with gentle and considerate movements.
After Li Yuzhu took the juice, he took a light bite and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Zhu'er, you look particularly beautiful today." Tan Xiangchen said in a low voice.
Li Yuzhu looked up at him and said, "Xiang Chen, you are the most beautiful man in my heart."
At this moment, Tan Xiangchen's eyes were full of affection. He gently stroked Li Yuzhu's face and said, "We are finally together."
Tan Xiangchen's feelings about family
Tan Xiangchen looked at his two sons, daughter-in-law and grandchildren, and felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
He realized that this was truly home—a place full of love and warmth.
"Zhu'er, look, we have our own little home and so many relatives. This is what I have always dreamed of." Tan Xiangchen said with emotion.
Li Yuzhu snuggled in his arms: "Yes, we finally found our happiness."
Tan Xiangchen gently stroked her long hair: "From now on, I will spend the rest of my life protecting you and our family."
…
The sunlight poured into the room through the curtains. Tan Zhengchu and Su Yingxue sat at the dining table, enjoying breakfast with their parents.
The atmosphere at the table was warm, but Tan Zhengchu felt a little anxious.
"Mom and Dad, let's leave after breakfast." Tan Zhengchu put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "There are still many things waiting for us to deal with in Pengcheng."
Li Yuzhu nodded, with a hint of reluctance in her eyes, but she still responded softly: "Okay, let's pack up and leave."
Tan Xiangchen was wearing a black mask. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were gentle, and he seemed to agree with his son's proposal.
After breakfast, Li Yuzhu walked into the study alone.
In the study, a wall full of paintings comes into view. Each one was painted by Tan Xiangchen himself, recording their more than 20 years of longing and waiting.
She stood in front of the painting, her fingers gently stroking the frame, her eyes full of nostalgia.
"These paintings...I want to take them back to Pengcheng." Li Yuzhu turned and looked at Tan Xiangchen, with anticipation in his tone, "They are too important to me."
Tan Xiangchen approached her. Although the mask covered his expression, the smile in his eyes could not be concealed. "I will draw for you every day in the future. Why take these away?"
Li Yuzhu shook her head, her eyes firm: "No, these paintings are our memories, and every stroke carries your thoughts. I want to take them home."
Tan Xiangchen was silent for a moment, and finally nodded. "Okay, I understand your feelings." He paused and continued, "But transporting these paintings may require some arrangements. Zhengchu is very capable now, and he should be able to help us solve this problem."
Li Yuzhu smiled with satisfaction: "Thank you, Xiang Chen."
Just then, Tan Zhengchu opened the door and walked in. "Mom and Dad, the car is ready and we can leave at any time." His voice was steady and powerful.
Seeing his parents standing in the study, Tan Zhengchu glanced at the paintings on the wall and seemed to understand something.
"Although the scenery here is beautiful, it is not home after all. We should go back."
Tan Xiangchen looked at his son and said calmly, "Your mother wants to take these paintings back to Pengcheng. What do you think?"
Tan Zhengchu looked around and nodded, "No problem. I have arranged for professionals to transport these paintings back safely by helicopter." He paused and asked, "Dad, is there anything else you need to take with you? We can arrange it together."
Tan Xiangchen shook his head and said calmly: "Nothing here is important to me. I don't want to take anything away, including my memories."
When Li Yuzhu heard this, a complicated look flashed across his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Xiangchen, I understand how you feel." Li Yuzhu walked to Tan Xiangchen and gently took his hand. "But these paintings mean a lot to me. I want to take them home."
Her voice was gentle but firm, as if she was saying something that could not be questioned. Tan Xiangchen looked at her and finally nodded.
"Okay, let's go home."
The moment he walked out of the study, Li Yuzhu looked back at the paintings on the wall, feeling filled with emotion.
The Tan family used to be an insurmountable obstacle for her, but now, she has entered this family and become one of them.
"The loss of the past will fade away with time." Li Yuzhu said softly, as if talking to herself, or to Tan Xiangchen, "We will move towards a happy future together."
She believed that despite the countless twists and turns in the first half of her life, the rest of her life would be filled with happiness.
And it all started from this moment.
At this time, Su Yingxue stood quietly outside the study, waiting for them to go home together.
Not long after, the door was gently pushed open, and parents Tan Xiangchen and Li Yuzhu walked out one after another.
Su Yingxue keenly noticed that their expressions seemed a little tense, as if they were thinking about something.
"Dad, Mom, are you ready?" Su Yingxue greeted them quickly with a smile, her voice soft and concerned.
"Well, we're ready." Tan Xiangchen and Li Yuzhu turned their heads slowly, their eyes were solemn. They just nodded slightly to Su Yingxue and walked straight away.
Tan Zhengchu came from nowhere. He noticed that Su Yingxue had been staring at her parents' backs as they left, her eyes full of confusion. He walked gently to Su Yingxue, raised his hand and gently placed it on her shoulder, and asked softly, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so absent-minded?"
Su Yingxue frowned slightly and said doubtfully: "My parents look so nervous, I don't know what's going on. Are they worried about something?"
Tan Zhengchu gently hugged her and patiently explained, "Baby, we are going home soon. For them, the concept of home is already very unfamiliar. They have been used to wandering around for so many years. Suddenly they have to return to a real home. It is normal for them to feel nervous and at a loss."
Su Yingxue nodded slightly, thinking. Her eyes showed a little more understanding, and she said slowly: "I understand, they must be confused. However, thinking of their love story, so bumpy and so affectionate, I believe they will be very happy in the future."
As she spoke, Su Yingxue fell into memories. Zhengchu's parents once loved each other so passionately, but were forced to separate.
Life is so short. Once you miss precious feelings, you will never know how much regret you will have.
She turned her head and looked at Tan Zhengchu affectionately, and said firmly: "No matter what happens in the future, I will never leave you."
After hearing this, Tan Zhengchu hugged her tightly in his arms and said softly, "Me too, we will always be together."
