Su Ge didn’t know what to say for a mont.
Huo Jialin continued, "Xiao Ge, I hope we can still be friends."
"Of course, we’ll definitely still be friends." Su Ge awkwardly tucked her hair behind her ear and then smiled and nodded at Huo Jialin.
His change unexpectedly made her feel a bit... caught off guard, to say the least.
But she was also glad she didn’t disturb him during his lowest monts.
Which allowed him to grow so quickly.
"I wish you and Chu Yihan eternal happiness, sincerely."
At the ntion of Chu Yihan, Su Ge’s expression suddenly froze for a mont.
She then lifted the corners of her mouth towards Huo Jialin, "Thank you, Jialin. Yihan and I will be happy forever."
"Hmm, I believe he will make you happy." Huo Jialin replied with earnestness in his eyes.
Su Ge then stood up, "Today is Zhenzhen and Jiaqi’s engagent party. I’m going to check if Zhenzhen is ready. See you later."
"Okay." After Huo Jialin responded, Su Ge swiftly left the courtyard.
Her pace wasn’t too hurried, but her expression was slightly complex.
Her Yihan will surely make her happy.
And will definitely co back soon.
Soon, return safely.
She waits for him.
In the courtyard, the man in the coffee-colored coat remained seated, staring for a long ti in the direction Su Ge had left.
The wind blew, carrying the fragrant scent of plum blossoms throughout the courtyard.
The engagent party finally ended successfully.
The Huo family went ho first, while the Mu family lingered behind.
Su Ge held Mu Zhenzhen’s hand as they left, admiring the jewelry prepared by the Huo family that Zhenzhen wore, and said enviously, "Zhenzhen, you’re truly lucky. I saw that even Jiaqi’s sisters-in-law don’t have as much nice stuff as you. The elders of the Huo family clearly have a special fondness for you."
"Really?" Mu Zhenzhen looked at her jewelry, but frowned, "Xiao Ge, why do I feel like Uncle Huo doesn’t seem to like much?"
"Doesn’t like you? Really?"
Su Ge recalled the scene at the engagent party, and it seed true that Huo Zhengting hadn’t said much from start to finish.
It was Mrs. Huo who kept saying good things.
"Zhenzhen, Uncle Huo is just like that, he doesn’t talk much normally, don’t overthink it."
"But I rember when we first went to the Huo family, Uncle Huo’s personality didn’t seem that way. When we saw him these two tis, he seed not to like talking much."
Mu Zhenzhen gently stroked the bracelet on her wrist, feeling a bit unworthy.
Even Jiaqi’s sisters-in-law don’t have such precious things, so why did Uncle Huo prepare so many valuable things for her?
Is it really because he favors Jiaqi?
Or is there another reason?
Is he trying to tell her sothing...
"That’s because the first ti we went, you and Huo Jiaqi’s relationship hadn’t been finalized. Now that it is, as his soon-to-be daughter-in-law, he naturally has to take on a bit of fatherly seriousness, he can’t still encourage you to drink like the first ti we t, right?" Su Ge comforted with a smile.
"No, Xiao Ge, that’s not what I ant."
The smile on Su Ge’s face slowly faded.
After thinking for a while, she continued, "Zhenzhen, before the engagent party, I told you that this is a road you can’t turn back from. Mr. Huo is very smart, he can probably see whether you like Jiaqi or not. So his intentions, you ought to understand them as well. Just stay with Huo Jiaqi, marry into the Huo family, and the people of the Huo family will surely treat you well."
