After being together with Li Rong for three months, I brought him back to the old house.
"Aren't you the one who said that even if I die outside, you wouldn't acknowledge me?" I said.
My grandfather's face turned pale with anger: "If you dare to die outside, I'll dig up your grave!"
"..."
Bringing Li Rong back to the old house was a matter of courtesy. After all, my grandfather had raised me for so many years, and he was getting old.
On the way back to the old house, Li Rong looked troubled.
"What's wrong?" I asked him.
He sighed, "I checked, and bigamy is illegal."
"..."
I looked at him helplessly: "Xu Qian won't mind."
Li Rong was slightly taken aback but then nodded: "Yeah."
I looked at him and suddenly felt a bit heartbroken.
...
When we arrived at the old house, I was surprised to find Xu Qian there as well.
"You came too?" I was quite surprised.
Xu Qian glanced at me: "Grandpa called me over for dinner."
"..."
I brought Li Rong inside.
The atmosphere was awkward.
"Grandpa," I said, "I'm going to marry Li Rong."
As I spoke, I handed the invitation to my grandfather.
He took the invitation, glanced at it, and snorted coldly: "I will not acknowledge this."
"It doesn't matter whether you acknowledge it or not," I replied, "anyway, Li Rong and I are getting married."
My grandfather glared at me: "Ungrateful!"
I smiled: "You've raised me for so many years; if I were grateful, wouldn't that mean all your efforts were in vain?"
My grandfather was so angry that he puffed out his cheeks and glared at me.
I left with Li Rong.
In the car, Li Rong asked me, "Have you eaten enough?"
I shook my head, "Not really, how about you?"
"I haven't eaten enough either," Li Rong replied.
I sighed, "I guess every time I come back in the future, I'll have to go hungry."
Li Rong smiled, "That's okay, I'll cook for you."
"Alright," I nodded with a smile.
...
The next day, I sent an invitation to both the old house and the Fu.
The wedding is in a month.
Li Rong has already graduated from the research institute.
I took a leave of absence to focus on preparing for the wedding.
On the day of the wedding, Zhou Hong and Xu Manjia were my bridesmaids.
Many business partners came, along with Li Rong's classmates and colleagues.
Halfway through the ceremony, my grandfather suddenly clutched his head and cried out in pain.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" I rushed over to support him.
Grandpa gritted his teeth, "It's nothing, just an old problem."
Li Rong also rushed over to help.
He squatted in front of Grandpa, holding his hand: "Grandpa, hang in there, the ambulance will be here soon."
Grandpa shook off Li Rong's hand: "Who asked for your help? Get lost!"
Li Rong still held onto Grandpa's hand, continuously comforting him.
Although Grandpa has a bad temper, when he's in pain, it's truly unbearable.
He was soothed by Li Rong all the way until his emotions gradually calmed down.
The ambulance took Grandpa to the hospital.
Li Rong and I continued to host the wedding.
...
After the wedding ended, Zhou Hong and Xu Qian left together.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Hong looked at Xu Qian.
Xu Qian smiled and said, "I'm fine."
Zhou Hong patted his shoulder and said, "Hmm, I think you're great too."
Xu Qian looked at her and asked, "When are you going back?"
"Tomorrow," Zhou Hong replied.
Xu Qian nodded, "I'll have someone take you."
"Okay."
Xu Qian turned to leave.
Zhou Hong watched his lonely figure and felt a pang in her heart.
She hurried after him, calling out, "Xu Qian."
Xu Qian stopped and turned to look at her.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Zhou Hong bit her lip and said softly, "How about you come with me to the mountains to experience life?"
Xu Qian smiled slightly, "I won't go; I'm afraid of hardship."
Zhou Hong sighed, "Alright then, take care of yourself."
"Mm."
...
Zhou Hong went to the mountains for volunteer teaching.
It was tough there, and her phone often had no signal.
Every day she thought about Xu Qian, her concern for him surpassing her own well-being.
She tried calling Xu Qian, but he never answered.
She texted him, but he didn't reply either.
Zhou Hong knew that Xu Qian was deliberately distancing himself from her.
He had truly given up.
Zhou Hong vowed in her heart that when she returned from the mountains, she would find a better girlfriend for Xu Qian.
