She closed the gift box as well, lifted her head, and t Xu Musen's gaze. She took a deep breath and finally humd softly, raising her fair cheeks.
"Who do you think I am, Yao Mingyue? A tiny surgery is nothing to . Just wait, don't be a henpecked husband who will back out when the ti cos!"
The two of them were very good at using reverse psychology on each other.
Xu Musen scoffed and arrogantly lifted his head as well, "The days of being henpecked are long gone. When it cos to family status, I'm invincible!"
Another brilliant firework blood, illuminating their proud expressions. As they stared at each other, it felt like they had returned to the past when they would often bet against each other out of stubbornness.
"Pfft..."
They both laughed simultaneously.
A mont later, Yao Mingyue rembered sothing.
"Then, I should go and explain everything to your parents. I still need to apologize to them for deceiving them..."
Although this news would be hard for them to accept, telling them now was the best solution.
"Alright, I'll go with you."
Xu Musen nodded his head. His parents had deep feelings for Yao Mingyue, and knowing this would certainly sadden them. However, it was sothing that couldn't be hidden forever, so telling them sooner would be a sign of respect.
Yao Mingyue nodded firmly and looked deeply at Xu Musen. She held the gift box tightly and glanced at the brightly lit engagent party hall behind him.
"Well, you should go back now. Don't keep your little fiancée waiting too long."
Her tone was faint and somber, lacking the sharp verbal sparring of the past. She had long prepared herself for this mont.
An Nuannuan had already made many concessions. If she continued to be "stingy," it would only make her seem petty.
After speaking, Yao Mingyue took two steps back and waved her hand.
At this mont, Liu Rushuang, who had been absent all along, drove up to them.
Liu Rushuang had been watching from a distance. Although she hadn't heard their conversation, she knew from their deanor that things had co to a good conclusion.
She couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She got out of the car, walked up to them, and hugged the two children she had watched grow up on either side.
"Mom..." Yao Mingyue's nose tingled with emotion. She knew that her mother must have been under even more pressure than she had been during this period.
"Mom, it's all over now. I'm here for everything."
Xu Musen also comforted her softly. It was the first ti he had seen the strong woman Liu Rushuang cry like this.
Liu Rushuang, with teary eyes, looked at the two children in front of her. Xu Musen's reassuring smile and
her daughter's hopeful eyes finally brought her so warmth after so long.
"Alright... Thank you, Xiao Sen. I have always said, in this world, only you can make her listen, and only you can accompany her through this lifeti."
Gently stroking Xu Musen's head, Liu Rushuang's eyes were still sowhat complicated as she looked at his suit.
"Mom, don't worry. This ti, we'll definitely grow old together."
Holding the gift box, Xu Musen's words expressed his attitude and determination.
Yao Mingyue silently tightened her hold on the gift box as well. No matter what, she wouldn't let go of the hard-won opportunity in this life.
Liu Rushuang took in all their actions. By now, she had long made up her mind that all the worldly opinions were laughable in the face of life.
On the path to truly pursuing their own happiness, everything else was so insignificant.
As long as they were willing.
She would bless them.
It was getting late.
Liu Rushuang took Yao Mingyue into the car. Today's date wasn't suitable for confessing everything to Mother Xu and Father Xu.
After all, today was the engagent party.
Yao Mingyue lowered the car window and looked at Xu Musen—dressed in a suit, with a diamond ring on his ring finger.
She couldn't help but speak in a slightly wistful tone, "I told you not to see off, and you really didn't?"
She was just like that, stubborn. But coincidentally, the more stubborn she was, the more Xu Musen liked it.
Xu Musen bent down, gently pinching Yao Mingyue's earlobe, "I can't help it, I promised Nuannuan I'd be ho tonight."
Yao Mingyue pouted jealously, "Didn't soone say his family status was unrivaled?"
"It is unrivaled, but my wife is a fairy from the heavens, and being the best on earth doesn't count in the heavens."
Xu Musen smiled and pinched her earlobe, leaning in to whisper, "So are you."
Though Yao Mingyue's jealousy was overwhelming, his last sentence made her lt inside, especially since her mom was right there eavesdropping.
Seriously, he didn't even put on a performance.
"You... bastard!"
Yao Mingyue blushed and spat, but when Xu Musen leaned closer, she still reached out and gave him a light kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you..."
"I really like this thank you gift."
Xu Musen's smile was warm, and Yao Mingyue blushed and smiled back.
The car drove away.
Xu Musen silently watched her departing figure, then turned around and looked at the engagent party hall, especially the lights on the second floor.
He suddenly felt a bit of pain in his ears.
Oh dear! It seed like his henpecked status as a husband from Sichuan had already co online!
