Before Gu Huanhuan could say anything, Wen Chi spoke up. âWeâve already thought it through. We are here to let you know that we understand and love each other. Weâve decided to grow old together after much consideration. I hope youâll give us your blessings.â
Getting Gu Shaotingâs blessings was as good as getting her familyâs.
âCongratulations.â Shu Pan said sincerely. She was very happy that Wen Chi had finally found his Miss Right.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shu Pan believed that Wen Chi would make Gu Huanhuan very happy based on her understanding of him and his character.
âThank you.â Wen Chi smiled. He only saw Shu Pan as Huanhuanâs cousin-in-law now and harbored no fantasies about her.
Gu Shaotingâs prolonged silence made everyone a little nervous, so Shu Pan patted his arm.
Gu Shaoting immediately understood. His wife had already given her blessings, and he knew Wen Chi.
Wen Chi was indeed quite outstanding, or he wouldnât have been his former love rival. Gu Shaoting still couldnât quite accept Wen Chi as his cousin-in-law.
But thinking about it another way, Gu Shaoting was relieved that there would be someone else whoâd look out for Gu Huanhuan from now on. His uncle and grandfather would be very happy too.
âWhen do you plan to register or host the wedding banquet?â Gu Shaoting asked.
âWe plan to register our marriage first. The wedding banquet can wait.â Gu Huanhuan explained that it was mainly because she was a public figure and she wanted a small and cozy wedding attended only by their family and friends.
Wen Chi had already gotten the girl, so he respected Gu Huanhuanâs wishes and left the wedding plans to her.
âWeâll do as Huanhuan says.â Wen Chi said without a mind of his own.
âDonât just give in to this girl, or sheâll walk all over you and do whatever she wants in future.â Gu Shaoting said with feeling.
âItâs okay. Iâll spoil her unconditionally. Itâs fine as long as sheâs happy.â Wen Chi said indifferently.
Gu Shaoting gave Wen Chi a sidelong glance as he secretly praised him. Gu Huanhuan had found the right guy.
Everyone then sat down and ate dinner while chatting happily.
Wen Chi and Gu Huanhuan only left Qiyuan when it was almost 8 p.m.
The two of them held hands as they walked out.
Wen Chi suddenly stopped in his tracks and said, âHuanhuan, letâs set a date to register our marriage.â
âWhy are you in such a hurry?â Gu Huanhuan teased.
âI am just anxious.â Wen Chi felt that he would feel more secure after getting their marriage certificate.
âHow about next Monday?â Gu Huanhuan felt that it was time to put this on the agenda since she had other ideas, like having a babyâ¦
Gu Huanhuan could not hide her smile as she thought about it.
Wen Chi glanced at her and said, âOkay, letâs find time this weekend to tell my parents.â
Gu Huanhuan nodded in disbelief. She couldnât believe that she was getting married when she was only 23 years old.
When not so long ago she didnât even believe in marriage⦠But since she met the person she loved, she had the urge to get married.
After the two of them got home, Wen Chi made her a honey lemon drink. Wen Chi had memorized this particular habit of Gu Huanhuan.
Gu Huanhuan took the drink from him sweetly and took a small sip.
âIâve thought about it. We should just treat our family and friends to a meal as our wedding banquet to inform them that weâre married.â
âDonât you feel that youâre shortchanging yourself?â Wen Chi felt that a big wedding was every girlâs dream. He was worried that she would regret it one day.
âNo. Iâm happy as long as we love each other and live happily ever after. I donât care about such formalities.â Gu Huanhuan didnât want to go through the trouble. Wen Chi was very busy too.
