Because there were many guests present, and her parents were nearby, Qiao Qiao didn’t dare make a scene. She pretended to be calm and asked, "Ye Xiandong, do you need sothing?"
Ye Xiandong continued to stare at her, as if he couldn’t hear her speaking. She noticed other people whispering among themselves, and Su Hongxing wasn’t coming over to help, instead sitting with Ye Qilan, both in a posture of enjoying the spectacle.
Now she knew that relying on Su Hongxing was impossible.
"Ye Xiandong, I’m just about to have my wedding. Can we talk after my wedding with Ye Shiqing is over?" Qiao Qiao asked in a low voice.
Considering Ye Xiandong’s special identity, as her ex-husband and Ye Shiqing’s brother, if rumors spread that Ye family brothers staged a drama over her, it would be very embarrassing.
"Second Brother, I want to borrow Qiaoqiao for a few minutes to say sothing. It won’t delay your wedding, you can trust and leave her to ," Ye Xiandong said, looking at Ye Shiqing.
Ye Shiqing didn’t know what Ye Xiandong intended to do. Although he wasn’t willing to see Ye Xiandong alone with Qiao Qiao, he couldn’t drive Ye Xiandong away in front of so many people.
In the end, he pretended to be generous and replied, "Qiaoqiao, don’t take too long, have a brief chat with Third Brother and co back to the wedding."
Qiao Qiao responded with a nod, then stepped down from the stage and went with Ye Xiandong to a spot with fewer people.
Ye Xiandong said to Qiao Qiao, "Qiaoqiao, lower your head for a mont."
Not knowing what Ye Xiandong wanted to do, Qiao Qiao followed his instructions and lowered her head. In the next mont, Ye Xiandong removed the necklace from her neck and replaced it with a finely crafted, beautifully shaped necklace.
The necklace was very pretty, delicately made, with an especially attractive design.
Qiao Qiao touched the necklace, hesitantly said, "This is..."
"I never had a chance to give you a gift before. As you’re getting married, I realized I hadn’t given you a proper gift, so I rushed over hoping you’d wear it to marry my Second Brother. I trust Second Brother will spoil and love you for a lifeti, and you’ll be very happy marrying him," Ye Xiandong said to Qiao Qiao, deliberately emphasizing each word.
There were many things he couldn’t do for her and many words he couldn’t say.
Qiao Qiao hesitated a bit. Wearing a necklace given by her ex-husband to marry Ye Shiqing, wouldn’t Ye Shiqing be upset? She instinctively wanted to refuse, "Such an expensive gift, I can’t accept it..."
"Qiaoqiao, this is the last ti. Can you help fulfill my wish? I just want to give you the first gift, and also the last one. There won’t be any more after this," Ye Xiandong said sincerely, "Perhaps, I won’t disturb your life anymore and completely leave your world. Wouldn’t that be a relief for you?"
In Ye Shiqing and Qiao Qiao’s world, he was an unwanted presence. Every ti Ye Shiqing saw him, he acted like he faced a formidable enemy, and Qiao Qiao too was tense upon seeing him.
He knew well that his frequent visits to Qiao Qiao amounted to harassnt, yet he couldn’t resist coming to see her.
"Ye Xiandong, don’t be like this, I, I..." Qiao Qiao was a bit flustered, looking at Ye Xiandong dazedly.
She was grateful Ye Xiandong suddenly set her free, and thankful that in her most difficult tis Ye Xiandong chose to sacrifice his reputation to protect her and her child.
She had truly loved Ye Xiandong before, and now felt sincere gratitude towards him.
"You don’t need to say anything, I understand. I’ve really thought it through, and as a charming figure like , there are all kinds of won I could have. You’re not outstanding in appearance, and your nature is too dull for my taste. Seeing you marry Second Brother, I should also settle down. Hope to have kids within three years..."
Ye Xiandong’s words made Qiao Qiao unable to suppress her smile.
Seeing Qiao Qiao finally smiling, Ye Xiandong beca serious and said, "Judging by Second Brother’s deanor, if you don’t return to him, he’ll co over and pull you away."
Qiao Qiao smiled and agreed, and as she approached Ye Shiqing, she turned back to look at Ye Xiandong, "Ye Xiandong, make sure to do your best! I believe you’ll find a woman suited to you and grow old together."
"Qiaoqiao, I wish you and Second Brother a long, loving life together!" Ye Xiandong said emphatically.
Returning to the stage, Ye Shiqing noticed the necklace on Qiao Qiao’s neck, his eyes glimring slightly, but he didn’t make any remarks.
The wedding proceeded.
