The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.

Wen Lan looked at Jiang Jingci with resentment.

"I'm not showing off, I'm just sharing the good news of my marriage with everyone. Besides, they are your colleagues, not outsiders." Jiang Jingci's goal has been achieved, and he is very patient with her.

Wen Lan was afraid of being laughed at by her colleagues downstairs, so she quickly forced herself to calm down and devote herself to the unfinished work.

Jiang Jingci looked at his watch and reached out to turn off the computer on the desk, "It's getting late, hurry up and pack up and follow me back to Qiushuitai."

She pursed her lips and said nothing.

Jiang Jingci had picked up her handbag and coat and stood at the door, his eyes deep, "I just did what a husband should do. When you agreed to marry me to save Xie Yansheng, you should have thought of these."

Her disdainful eyes fell on the window.

"We are already legally married, and you are afraid to avoid me. I don't know how long you are going to escape." Jiang Jingci looked at her coldly, "Tonight's dinner is my bottom line that I can't touch, you must go."

She thought for a while and chose to compromise.

Because she was afraid that if she kept going against Jiang Jingci, Jiang Jingci would force her after he saw no hope in this marriage.

In her mind, Jiang Jingci was no longer the humble gentleman he used to be!

After coming out of TT, she got into Jiang Jingci's car.

"I asked you several times, but you didn't say which studio's shooting style you liked. I had to make the decision on my own and decided on 'Flower Field Wedding' in Shanghai." Jiang Jingci took the initiative to bring up the topic.

She knew she couldn't escape, so she said "um" softly.

"By the way, should we have the clothes we wear customized at TT on the wedding day, or choose other brands?" Jiang Jingci glanced at her in the rearview mirror while driving, "You are a fashion designer, you have more experience than me, I fully respect your opinion."

"Whatever." Her heart ached inexplicably.

When she was waiting for Xie Yansheng to divorce, she had imagined countless times that she would wear a white wedding dress, walk into the church with Xie Yansheng, and make a vow to grow old together.

But things are unpredictable...

Although she has already obtained the marriage certificate with Jiang Jingci, she is very resistant in her heart, not to mention the wedding in a month!

Xie Yansheng, where are you?

"Yu Hui's parents have seen you before when they went to the hospital for a physical examination. They have a good impression of you." Jiang Jingci was afraid that she would be nervous, so he tried to comfort her, "They are anxious to see you because they are afraid that Jiang Guan will be wronged in the future. When they see you living in harmony with each other, they will be relieved."

"This is the first time and the last time. If there is such a thing again, don't look for me!" Wen Lan said coldly.

"I wrote down every word you said." Jiang Jingci showed her goodwill.

Back to Jiang's house, Jiang Guan, who went home for the weekend, was waiting for them in the living room.

The last time Wen Lan met Jiang Guan, she was still an outsider and accompanied him to the hotel to find Jiang Jingci in the middle of the night.

Now, she is Jiang Jingci's legal wife and Jiang Guan's nominal stepmother.

When Wen Lan saw Jiang Guan, her face flushed with embarrassment and she only greeted him awkwardly.

Jiang Guan was quite happy, and asked Wen Lan with a smile, "Should I call you Sister Lan or Auntie Lan from now on?"

"Of course Auntie Lan!" Jiang Jingci rushed to say before Wen Lan responded.

"Auntie Lan--it sounds so old!" Jiang Guan pondered over this title again and again, and shook his head angrily, "She is obviously only ten years older than me, so I'd better call her Sister Lan!"

"It's just a title, it doesn't matter." Wen Lan did not comment.

Before going out, Wen Lan went upstairs to change into a simple gray dress, and went to the baby room to see Yangyang who was sleeping soundly.

Wen Lan thought that Jiang Jingci's father-in-law and mother-in-law had nothing to do with her, and she didn't feel awkward after meeting them.

The two old people were very polite to her, and seven out of ten sentences they said were related to Jiang Guan. As long as she frowned slightly, Jiang Jingci would take the initiative to help her out.

Jiang Guan called "Sister Lan" and "Sister Lan". Wen Lan's attitude towards Jiang Guan was more like a good friend than an elder.

At this dinner, Wen Lan and Jiang Jingci and his son cooperated very well. No matter who saw them, they were a happy reconstituted family.

Jiang Jingci was very happy and drank a bottle of Maotai with Father Yu.

Although Jiang Jingci was already tipsy, he managed the time very well. Just after an hour, the dinner came to an end.

Mother Yu took out a velvet box from her handbag and handed it to Wen Lan, sighing and saying, "This is the gold bracelet left by Grandma Yu Hui. It is a bit old, but it still has weight. Yu Hui is unlucky and has no luck to enjoy it. Now, I will give it to you."

"I can't accept such a valuable thing--" Wen Lan waved her hand hurriedly, and Jiang Jingci took it for her before she finished speaking.

"The two old people like you and value you so they took out this heirloom bracelet. Don't offend them."

Jiang Jingci put the velvet box into Wen Lan's bag. For the sake of face, Wen Lan did not refute.

Before parting, Mother Yu kept holding Wen Lan's hand and talking to her in a personal way. When Jiang Jingci's driver came to pick up the two elderly people, she reluctantly let Wen Lan go and repeatedly invited Wen Lan to have dinner at home when she had time.

Wen Lan said yes repeatedly with red eyes.

In Wen Lan's memory, she was only loved and cared for by Ji Minxin before she was six years old. Later, Mrs. Wen and Mother Xie regarded her as a thorn in their eyes, and her actions were not worthy of being called an elder.

Mother Yu's pity and love for her in her words and deeds made her experience a warmth she had never experienced before.

Before they met, she thought Mother Yu would be sarcastic and nitpicking to her, but the facts slapped her in the face!

It turns out that elders are different from each other.

Some are harsh and vicious, while others are considerate.

Some hate her, while others are kind to her.

For a moment, she secretly envied Yu Hui, whom she had never met. When she was alive, she had parents who loved her deeply, and a husband who loved her as much as his life. If it weren't for that disease, her life could be said to be perfect.

Back to Qiushui Terrace, Wen Lan first looked at the two children on the first floor.

Jiang Guan's return for the weekend made Wen Lan feel very relieved, because his bedroom was also on the second floor. Even if Jiang Jingci was lonely and unbearable, Wen Lan would not worry about being harassed at night.

Jiang Guan still had a lot of homework to do, so he went upstairs and returned to his bedroom. Before opening the door, Wen Lan returned the velvet box containing the gold bracelet to Jiang Jingci.

"I'll keep it for you first. When you can accept it, I'll give it back to you." Jiang Jingci accepted it readily without forcing it.

After locking the door, Wen Lan took off her shoes, went to the bathroom barefoot, and took a hot bath.

Lying on the bed, turning off all the lights in the room, Xie Yansheng came again uninvited.

She took out the string of eighteen beads from the interlayer of her handbag, put it on her chest, and murmured over and over again: Xie Yansheng, where are you?
