Chapter 263: Love Over Friendship



Gu Sicheng's appearance further strengthened Tang Wanyan's determination to lose weight.

With the encouragement and company of her best friend Su Wantang, Tang Wanyan finally plucked up the courage and took the initiative to step out of the door of the room that had isolated her from the outside world for a long time, and decided to have lunch with everyone.

When Tang Wanyan suddenly appeared in the front hall, everyone in the Tang family was stunned, with surprise on their faces.

Tears welled up in Mrs. Tang's eyes instantly, and she felt heartbroken. She hurriedly stretched out her wrinkled yet extremely warm hands, and took Tang Wanyan and Su Wantang, letting them sit next to her.

He kept repeating, "My dear child, he finally came out."

You know, before this, Tang Wanyan had not dared to eat or talk with everyone for several months.

After a serious illness, he locked himself in his room for several months, isolated from the world.

The people from the Gu family had already gone back before Tang Wanyan came out, so those sitting at the dinner table were all the closest members of the Tang family.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Tang family had tears in her eyes. Looking at Tang Wanyan's face that had regained its radiance, she seemed like a different person in an instant, and she was so excited that she could hardly control herself.

She wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and couldn't help sobbing at the dinner table: "Yan Yan...she hasn't smiled like this for a long time. Xiao Wan is really the lucky star of our Tang family. When she came, my lively and cheerful daughter came back."

As she spoke, her voice became more choked up, and her eyes were filled with gratitude towards Su Wantang.

Old Madam Tang patted her thigh and said with a kind smile, "I think Yanyan and Xiaowan are also quite compatible. Why don't we let Xiaowan and Yanci stay in the Tang family for a while longer so that these children can have some company."

When the eldest sister-in-law of the Tang family heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up and she smiled brightly. She quickly agreed, "That's a good idea. Fengzhen and Weiping should stay for a while before going back."

Tang Fengzhen raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile. She turned to look at Su Wantang and Fu Yanci and asked them softly, "How did you decide?"

Fu Yanci had a doting smile on his face, and his slender fingers gently held Su Wantang's hand. His voice was gentle and firm, like the warmest spring breeze in the world: "I will listen to Wanwan."

Su Wantang naturally wanted to stay and spend more time with Tang Wanyan.

She smiled and nodded gently in response: "It just so happens that Yanci's legs are not suitable for running back and forth, so we will stay here and go back before the New Year."

When the other members of the Tang family heard that Su Wantang and Fu Yanci were willing to stay, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. The whole dinner table was filled with warmth and joy.

Tang Fengzhen spoke again, with a hint of helplessness and worry in her eyes: "Then you two can play here for a while. Your father and I have to go back early. Your sister Xiaoxue is home alone, and I am really worried about her."

The eldest brother of the Tang family nodded quickly, patted his chest, and said generously: "I will personally send you back when the time comes. Yan Ci and Xiao Wan just have fun here without worry."

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much, and laughter echoed throughout the house.

During the conversation, Tang Wanyan also learned that her best friend Su Wantang is now married to Fu Yanci, the cousin of the original owner Tang Wanyan.

She had the memories of the original owner and knew that Fu Yanci was a heroic officer, and she was very happy for Su Wantang.

After dinner, the sky gradually darkened and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled in the courtyard, giving the entire Tang family a warm hue.

Tang Wanyan was like a happy little deer, and she pulled Su Wantang directly into her room.

Fu Yanci looked at the two happy figures, feeling happy for his cousin's transformation, but also a little disappointed because his wife was "taken away".

He thought to himself: My wife was taken away by my cousin. What excuse should I find to get her back?

Night fell slowly like a huge piece of black silk.

After taking a shower, Tang Wanyan and Su Wantang huddled together in the warm bed. They felt like they had returned to the new century and had endless topics to talk about.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but the laughter in the room was like cheerful notes that never stopped.

However, Fu Yanci tossed and turned in his room, unable to fall asleep.

He lay on the bed, his eyes looking at the ceiling, his mind filled with the image of Su Wantang.

Thinking that Tang Wanyan might occupy his wife for a long time to come, he felt that he could not indulge Tang Wanyan so easily.

Finally, he sighed helplessly, stood up, put on a coat, walked to Tang Wanyan's door with a slightly anxious step, and knocked on the door gently.

Tang Wanyan and Su Wantang's laughter stopped abruptly. Tang Wanyan blinked and asked, "Who is it?"

There was still a hint of laughter in his voice.

Fu Yanci cleared his throat, trying to make his voice sound calmer, and whispered, "It's me. Are you guys asleep?"

Tang Wanyan and Su Wantang smiled at each other, their eyes full of teasing.

Su Wantang whispered, "I was right, your cousin is a clingy person now."

Tang Wanyan nodded repeatedly, sighed slightly, curled her lips, and said with a hint of ridicule: "It seems that both of us have lost the bet. I bet that he will not be able to help but let you go back tomorrow, and you bet that he will come and take you away in the middle of the night."

"I never thought that he would come knocking on the door before ten o'clock. He's really clingy!"

Su Wantang had already sat up and put on his coat: "Then I'm leaving?"

Tang Wanyan took Su Wantang's hand, shook it gently, and said coquettishly: "Can you please not put love before friendship? I need you too..."

Su Wantang smiled and tapped Tang Wanyan's forehead, his eyes full of pampering: "Be good, if you don't let me leave tonight, your cousin won't let me come to your room tomorrow."

Tang Wanyan then reluctantly let go, still mumbling, "That's really not nice."

When Su Wantang opened the door, she saw Fu Yanci standing outside, with an upright posture but a hint of grievance in his eyes.

When Fu Yanci saw Su Wantang appear, he coughed lightly and pretended to be pitiful: "Wanwan, I'm cold."

Tang Wanyan rolled her eyes and snorted, "Hey, you two should leave quickly and stop showing off your affection in front of me."

As she spoke, she deliberately covered her head with the quilt.

Su Wantang smiled and gently closed the door, then took Fu Yanci's arm and walked towards her bedroom...
