"Sister, let’s go have fun together. I can introduce you to my good friend."
"No need."
She didn’t want to pay attention to .
"Sister, this cake is really delicious, I want you to try it!"
"I don’t want it. Can you please stay away from ?" She furrowed her brows, clearly impatient.
But I didn’t stop there; I had to show everyone that I was a very accommodating and accepting little sister.
"Co on, just take a bite! It’s so boring to sit here all by yourself..."
"Xiangqiao! Can you please stay away from !"
She lost her temper!
She pushed away the cake I offered, and it rolled onto her, staining her black dress.
She was startled and quickly tried to wipe it off, ending up with it sared all over herself and her hands, in total disarray.
Many people turned their gazes toward us.
However, the banquet hall was so large that our stepfather and mother on the far side hadn’t noticed the situation here.
"Sister, let’s go to the resting room. I’ll find a set of clothes for you to change into!"
I made a move to grab her hand, and she instinctively dodged, then looked up at with almond-shaped eyes brimming with tears...
The expression on her face was so sad, as if she wanted to say sothing but was also stubbornly holding her ground, lips pressed tightly together, not speaking a word.
I stood to the side, feeling quite helpless, when soone imdiately approached Song Lili, saying,
"Your little sister is trying to cheer you up so much, yet you, as the older sister, have no grace?"
"Yeah, you’re all going to be one family in the future... Besides, it’s your father’s big day. Making such a scene is so immature..."
The more they talked about Song Lili like that, the happier I felt inside; at that mont, I wondered if I was being too an, but I couldn’t help feeling smug.
Song Lili stood there, her hair slightly disheveled, unable to tidy it herself, and her black dress was covered in cake.
I waited on the side, wanting to see the tears in her eyes roll down, to see her cry a ss...
"Who is that...?"
A new topic suddenly erged among the guests...
One by one, they turned their heads in one direction... I did the sa, craning my neck to see.
A well-dressed middle-aged butler, and a handso young man in a fine suit.
The young man looked to be in his teens, his face adorned with a gentle smile, the corners of his mouth lifted in a curve that exuded nobility and propriety.
He was heading straight towards .
I imdiately got nervous.
At that ti, I was only seven years old, but seeing the young man approaching, I was certain he was my Prince Charming.
In the entire wedding hall, I was the most eye-catching princess, cultured and well-mannered, pretty, and well-behaved, talented too; he must have seen from afar and so had co over...
He must be so nobleman’s young master. His smile was so gentle, so charming...
How could there be such a beautiful young man in this world...
Just watching him approach, my little heart was already "thump thump thumping" with rapid beats.
Prince, Prince... the prince was coming to pick up his princess.
I felt shy, and when he was about to reach , I was so shy I couldn’t even lift my head.
Then, I watched as he walked by and went straight up to Song Lili,
"Ali, why are you crying?"
"..."
I was stunned, looking at them...
I saw Song Lili’s tears that she had been holding back spinning wildly in her eyes as she looked at him, equally astonished, and then I heard her say,
"Wen Xiaonian... what are you doing here?"
After asking, the tears the size of soybeans rolled down.
Wen Nian imdiately reached out to wipe off the teardrops hanging on her face,
"Uncle is getting married, so I ca to the wedding."
His voice was so gentle, so sweet... his eyes full of compassion as he looked at Song Lili.
"What happened to you?"
Song Lili sniffled, "I accidentally got dirty..."
"How could you be so careless? Co on, let’s go wash it off." He reached out without hesitation and grabbed her hand, the one sared with cake, not minding the greasiness...
"Uncle Wei? You’re here too..."
She called out to the middle-aged butler.
What was their relationship?
I didn’t know, but I deeply regretted why I had to make Song Lili look so distressed...
