"Xiaoer, I love you."
"..."
As Lu Xiaoer’s heart stirred, a layer of mist began to form over her already warm eyes, she looked up, smiling and crying, she nodded her head,
"That’s the only reason I stayed."
The warmth filled Zhongli Wuzhi’s heart, and he embraced Xiaoer.
"Let’s not dwell on everything that happened before, right and wrong are no longer important now."
"..."
"In Caesar, you said you would marry one day, and I just need you to keep that promise. Not all who are in marriage are trapped animals, and not all marriages are interest-centered like the ones of my father’s generation."
"I keep my word."
Zhongli Wuzhi bowed his head and kissed the top of Lu Xiaoer’s hair.
Lu Xiaoer leaned into Zhongli Wuzhi’s arms,
"Don’t make regret my actions today in the future."
"I won’t."
Zhongli Wuzhi asserted, and then he laughed again,
"You are the most charming woman I have ever t. Do you know how much of an impact it had on when you appeared at the wedding and asked if I wanted to marry you?"
Zhongli Wuzhi murmured.
Looking back now, that scene, her face, her expressions, every word she said, the gasps of the guests, the astonishnt filling the entire banquet hall...
It was all incredibly clear.
"Wasn’t it extrely humiliating?" Lu Xiaoer said.
"If it were , I probably wouldn’t have had the courage to do such a sensational thing."
"I know it was quite humiliating and not very romantic, but it was sothing I just wanted to do. I needed you to make a choice in front of all the guests, to show Princess Chinian clearly..."
"She can’t steal my man, no matter how many tricks she has."
"Speaking selfishly, it was to get revenge on her, to vent the bitterness in my heart. It wasn’t the smartest move, but it was effective."
Lu Xiaoer spoke calmly.
Zhongli Wuzhi hugged her a bit tighter,
"You’re calling foolish..."
"Letting her experience being jilted at the altar in front of everyone is the sha she deserves. Compared to what I endured, this is really nothing."
Lu Xiaoer said coldly.
"I’m sorry, Xiaoer... Seeing you so resolute back then, I thought I would never earn your forgiveness in this lifeti."
"..."
Lu Xiaoer looked up,
"Zhongli Wuzhi, I’ve realized that you... are quite lucky."
"Hm? How so?"
Zhongli Wuzhi blinked his eyes.
"I won’t say I was entirely blaless, but for you to imagine such a drama that insulted my character based on what happened that night with Song Jing, your mistake is certainly much bigger than mine. You can’t dispute that, can you?"
"...I can’t dispute that."
"Yet, even after such a great mistake, your parents still ca to plead on your behalf to my family. I’ve never seen Uncle Zhongli humble himself like that in front of my dad."
Zhongli Wuzhi chuckled lightly,
"Because they really like you, and they also feel that my becoming more grounded and diligent is all thanks to you being there to watch over ."
"Before this, I never imagined Uncle Zhongli and Auntie would like . I always thought Uncle and my dad were complete enemies whenever they t."
"Ha, my dad is a real hypocrite. What he’s best at is deceiving and confusing people."
"Do you talk about your dad like that?"
"Considering he’s been running around for my sake this ti, I’ll strive to give him a grandchild sooner."
"..."
Lu Xiaoer reached out and twisted his arm, and Zhongli Wuzhi winced in pain but didn’t cry out.
"As you wish, as you wish... You decide when you want, alright?"
Zhongli Wuzhi quickly said.
"And Lili..."
"...Yes."
That they could now hold hands and cuddle together while waiting to complete the marriage procedures, Song Lili must have made many efforts.
"Actually, she’s not soone who likes to ddle, but this ti... we really owe it to her."
Lu Xiaoer said,
"Her trust in you is even greater than mine."
"..."
Zhongli Wuzhi was also surprised by this.
He never expected Song Lili would support him from start to end in winning back Lu Xiaoer.
"She said... you would make happy. She said, with her personal integrity, she guarantees you truly love . I was really surprised to hear Lili say such things..."
"..."
Song Lili was indeed an eccentric person.
That’s what Zhongli Wuzhi thought in his heart.
But he was really grateful to Song Lili, the eccentric person.
