Ever since he understood feelings, he had thought of marrying Helian Xi.
"If that’s the case, then fine." Helian Xi didn’t even want to continue speaking.
What she actually wanted to say was: If that’s the case, then why haven’t you asked about the wedding progress, or personally got involved in the wedding process?
If he did all that, she would happily look forward to the wedding.
What she cared about was never the wedding dress or how grand the wedding would be.
Yet, seeing Gu Jin Yan looking so troubled, she felt he wasn’t happy at all.
If it weren’t for her feelings towards him, if it weren’t because she loved him—
She would have considered divorcing him, letting him find soone else to marry.
After all, his grandmother just wants to see him have a wedding, it doesn’t matter who the bride is.
Helian Xi really thought Gu Jin Yan’s grandmother was the epito of sentintal fussiness.
She was difficult when healthy, and still being difficult when at death’s door.
What wedding?
Hadn’t they already registered their marriage? Or had she not given birth to a son?
Helian Xi, stirring up a conspiracy theory, wondered if the old lady was doing it on purpose, wanting to ruin her relationship with her beloved grandson as she was leaving this world.
Making Gu Jin Yan resent her, ensuring this knot will linger in their hearts for life.
"Xiao Xi, like I said, if you truly don’t want to, I won’t force you." Gu Jin Yan was genuinely troubled, he truly didn’t want Helian Xi to be unhappy.
"It’s not about whether I want to or not. Are you saying, if I don’t want to, you’ll divorce ? Then, go find another woman to marry, and have a wedding just to please your grandmother?"
When Helian Xi spoke, her tone was surprisingly calm.
She wasn’t even angry anymore.
"What are you talking about? We already have a child together. I an, if you really don’t want to, I will try to convince grandmother." Gu Jin Yan’s face also showed discomfort.
He disliked Helian Xi frequently ntioning divorce.
"If you could convince grandma, would you still bring this up to ?" Helian Xi rolled her eyes and couldn’t be bothered with him anymore, turning to check on Little Crab.
Little Crab, over a year old, was playing in the children’s room with the nanny. Upon seeing Helian Xi, he toddled over on his short legs.
"Mommy."
"Little Crab, have you been good today?" Helian Xi picked him up; this little one seed to have gained weight again.
"Good." Little Crab couldn’t say much yet and only spoke in single words.
"Did you miss mommy?" Helian Xi kissed his little face and asked.
"Missed." Little Crab said, nodding his head earnestly.
"Such a good boy." Helian Xi put him down, feeling like an unworthy mother who couldn’t even lift Little Crab.
If she were to take Little Crab sowhere alone, she doubted if she could manage.
Helian Xi was still a child herself when she beca a mother.
Sotis, she found it quite incredible.
However, every ti she saw Little Crab, her heart softened.
At night, when they went to sleep, she and Gu Jin Yan hardly talked.
She only answered whatever he asked.
Besides that, there was no communication.
Gu Jin Yan often wanted to say sothing but seeing Helian Xi’s clearly resistant expression, he stopped.
Although they were clearly the perfect couple, sohow, problems always arose.
Gu Jin Yan reflected, it seed the issues were all on his side.
"Xiao Xi, I promise you, after the wedding, I’ll listen to whatever you say. Please forgive for being selfish in this matter!"
