The cool breeze from the river blew over. The scene on the streets reflected on the surface of the river in a twinkling kaleidoscope of colors.
Gazing at the chiseled face beside her, Ye Youyou’s emotions were jumbled. Something was changing in the deep recesses of her heart.
As if he sensed Ye Youyou’s eyes on him, Li Jinnan turned to face her. His deep, dark eyes beheld her face clearly. An unfamiliar emotion began to blossom inside him.
The corners of his lips turned up. He flicked his head a certain direction as he said, “Let’s go.”
Ye Youyou was in a daze, “Huh?”
“You don’t want to go home?” Li Jinnan put out his cigarette. In mock laughter, he asked, “Or, would you like to check into a hotel with me?”
“No!” Ye Youyou immediately objected.
Li Jinnan’s smile deepened as he replied, “Let’s check into a hotel then.”
“I meant I don’t want to check into a hotel!” Ye Youyou growled between clenched teeth.
Li Jinnan couldn’t care less. He put his hands into his pockets and walked off.
Ye Youyou followed behind and yelled out, “I’m going home!”
“OK,” he said.
“I won’t send you off. You should go back. It’s late,” Ye Youyou said.
“I parked my car in your apartment estate,” Li Jinnan said.
Ye Youyou was speechless.

The wedding date arrived as scheduled. The house that Wen Fenglin bought wasn’t big. The visiting friends and relatives filled it up.
Yu Lili was dressed in a wedding gown. At the thought of being able to meet the man who filled her thoughts and dreams soon, her heart beat with excitement and a tinge of nervousness. While there was a sense of uncertainty over her unknown future, there was also the feeling of exhilaration over her impending happiness.
“The groom is here! The groom is here!” a kid’s voice rang out from within the crowd. The whole house of people began to extend their well wishes.
Li Jianyue was dressed in a cute frilly white dress and black leather shoes. With a spring in her step, she ran in and announced, “Uncle Ou Ming is here! Brother Mosen, hold the door and don’t let Uncle Ou Ming in!”
The little girl’s sweet voice made everyone around smile. Someone could resist teasing her, “How can you not let your Uncle Ou Ming in? Uncle Ou Ming needs to come in to fetch his wife back.”
“Exactly! Do you not want your Uncle Ou Ming to be able to marry Auntie Lili?”
When Li Jianyue heard it, she firmly stood her ground with her arms akimbo and said, “Hmpf! Auntie Qianqian told me that if Uncle Ou Ming lacks sincerity, he’s not allowed to marry his wife! You must have sincerity when marrying your wife! Am I right, Brother Mosen?”
The little boy who had been singled out nodded his head. In a somber tone, he said, “Yeah, not only when marrying her. He has to have sincerity when wooing her too.”
“Wow! This guy understands so much!”
“Your future potential is limitless! Whose son are you?”
“He’s probably from Su Qianci’s family. How cute! He’s mixed blood and looks so much like a prince charming.”
The compliments that came pouring in from all around began to embarrass Li Mosen. He blushed but refused to back down as he stood by Li Jianyue’s side.
“The little flower girl is so cute.”
“Both the boy and girl are cute. This little girl looks so much like Su Qianci and Li Sicheng. One look and it’s obvious she’s their kid.”
Ye Qianqian was part of the bridal entourage and stepped in to shield the two kids, saying. “Stop scaring our two little angels! Hurry and prepare to receive your red packets! Ou Ming is coming. We can’t let him marry our princess so easily!”
Yu Lili was surrounded by friends and family. She was feeling so elated. As she looked around, she realized a familiar figure was missing.
With a surprised yelp, she asked, “Where’s Manting? Wasn’t she here just now? How has she gone missing?”
