After a meal, the atmosphere was particularly harmonious and pleasant.
At the dining table, Old Qin was still seated at the head, with Qin Yan sitting opposite him. To Old Qin's left were Su Yue and Qin Mu, while Fu Weiheng sat on his right. Su Wan quietly sat next to Fu Weiheng, eating her food.
At the beginning of the meal, Su Wan was worried that Fu Weiheng might feel nervous, so while she served herself, she also helped him with some dishes. Later, seeing him engaged in conversation with Old Qin, she realized she had overthought it and decided to eat in silence.
Old Qin took a sip of the Yangmei Wine beside him and smiled kindly, "I heard from Guan Guan that you are a musician?"
Fu Weiheng placed a piece of fish he had just picked up into his bowl and smiled modestly, "I can only play a few tunes; I wouldn't call myself a musician."
Su Wan internally scoffed: He clearly got upset when she called him a violinist just a couple of days ago!
Su Yue also asked, "So are you still making music?"
While carefully removing the bones from the piece of fish in his bowl, Fu Weiheng replied, "I haven't played for a few years because I've been taking over the family business."
Su Wan swallowed her food and unexpectedly spoke up, "Our band has a performance at Yan Chuan Grand Theatre in March; he will also be on stage."
Qin Mu exclaimed in surprise, "So brother-in-law, are you returning to the classical music scene?"
Fu Weiheng placed the boned piece of fish into Su Wan's bowl and replied leisurely, "For the band performance, I'm just joining in to practice."
At that moment, the four people at the table watched as Su Wan calmly picked up the fish that Fu Weiheng had prepared for her and ate it. They all fell silent for a moment.
There was both surprise and warmth.
The surprise came from Fu Weiheng's attentive care for Su Wan, while she seemed to take it for granted.
The warmth stemmed from how much Fu Weiheng cherished Su Wan.
Su Yue watched everything with her eyes and felt even more approving of Fu Weiheng in her heart.
Old Qin was also feeling delighted at this moment, smiling with narrowed eyes as he tentatively asked, "Are you planning to get married?"
Fu Weiheng replied seriously, "Of course." After a pause, he finally spoke truthfully, "Actually, I came here to propose to you."
"Poof—"
Su Wan sprayed the soup she had just taken a sip of.
He actually proposed!
Qin Mu was so surprised that he opened his mouth in silence, took out his phone to take a picture, and pretended to be nonchalant as he posted on social media—
[Mumu Baby: Witnessing the moment my brother-in-law proposed!]
[Image: A half-eaten fish]
The comments were as follows—
[A: "Whoa, your sister, who is as beautiful as a fairy, is getting married?"]
[B: "Wow, I was planning to pursue your sister right after the college entrance exam!"]
[C: "So, your brother-in-law is a fish? Or… half a fish?"]
[Is Yao Ye, Not Yao Ye: "Whoa whoa whoa whoa, it's only been a year! What did I miss!"]
[D: "Is your brother-in-law that Violinist you mentioned who had feelings for your sister?!!"]
[E: "My goodness, at least show your brother-in-law's face! What’s with posting a fish!"]
[Jinjin's Little Chengyang: "Wow! Deity what speed is this? Lao Mu Bao! Your sister isn't pregnant, right? Ahhhhh!"]
...
However, Qin Mu did not see any of these comments.
Because just after she posted this on her Moments, Fu Weiheng added seriously, "I came here in a hurry this time, so I didn't prepare everything thoroughly. But my intention to marry Guan Guan is genuine. Everything that should be there will not be lacking. Once Guan Guan graduates, I will come back with my family to formally propose."
Despite growing up abroad, Fu Weiheng actually pays more attention to certain customs and etiquette than anyone else.
After all, when it comes to Su Wan, he is always more serious than anything else.
Old Qin and Su Yue were somewhat stunned and hadn't had the chance to respond when Qin Yan, who had been silent for a long time, unexpectedly spoke up: "What do you mean by 'everything that should be there will not be lacking'?"
Everyone turned their gaze toward Qin Yan.
Su Wan vaguely felt that Qin Yan might say something inappropriate, so she kicked him lightly under the table and winked at him to signal him to stop. However, he ignored her completely and directly bypassed Su Wan, fixing his sharp gaze on Fu Weiheng: "For example?"
Fu Weiheng smiled calmly: "I have already asked someone to draft a Prenuptial Agreement that will transfer ninety percent of my personal assets to Guan Guan. Although there will never be any accidents in my marriage with Guan Guan, I still clearly stated in the agreement that regardless of which party is at fault, after a divorce, I will leave with nothing."
Su Wan was left speechless and looked up at him in shock: "You..."
Fu Weiheng simply smiled at her and then turned to Qin Yan: "What do you think?"
Qin Yan shrugged helplessly without saying anything.
What else could he say after he had said that?
Su Yue and Old Qin were also taken aback by Fu Weiheng's words. Su Yue smiled reassuringly at Fu Weiheng: "We don't have much objection; everything depends on Guan Guan."
Old Qin chimed in: "As long as Guan Guan is happy and you truly care for her, that's enough."
Fu Weiheng nodded seriously and said, "I will."
Beside him, Qin Mu was so moved by Fu Weiheng that tears almost fell, silently thinking: Boohoo... My brother-in-law is just too handsome...
After dinner, at Su Yue's request, Su Wan took Fu Weiheng to her room for a visit and to rest.
She opened the door and stepped aside to let him in, then gently closed the door behind her.
Fu Weiheng glanced around; the room was small, less than thirty square meters, but very cozy. A bookshelf held a few certificates and two trophies, while the rest of the space was filled with various books. Between the foot of the bed and the wardrobe stood her piano, with a black Music Stand beside it holding sheet music. The bed was small, barely enough for two people to sleep on.
He caught a glimpse of the somewhat messy desk and lazily sat down on the edge of the bed, beckoning Su Wan to come over with a finger gesture.
Su Wan looked up at him for a moment before obediently walking over to sit beside him.
Mr. Fu took the opportunity to wrap his arm around her waist and pull her closer, leaning down to kiss her gently and tenderly.
Su Wan grasped his collar, responding clumsily as she tilted her head back.
After a long while, the two slowly parted. Su Wan tugged at his collar and lowered her gaze, softly asking, "What you just said... was it serious?"
Fu Weiheng raised his hand to tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear and replied with a low "Mm."
Su Wan looked up: "I..."
He knew what she wanted to say and interrupted her firmly without giving her a chance to speak. "Guan Guan, this is my commitment to you and your family, and it shows my sincerity in wanting to marry you. Once you return, we will sign the agreement."
His deep eyes reflected clear honesty and seriousness, as if everything meant nothing in his view.
"Of course," he raised an eyebrow and leaned closer to her ear, speaking slowly. "Divorce is impossible for life, so even if that contract is signed, it would just be a piece of waste paper." He softened his tone further, his breath tickling her ear. "Besides, I am entirely yours now; what use do I have for that money?"
Su Wan: "…………"
"Guan Guan, you know." He said again, "I love you."
So even my life can be given to you.
Because that heart has long been shattered for you.
——
Fu Weiheng had to rush back home the next day because he had come over from Yan Chuan without any explanation the day before. After all, there was an old man at home, and it was the New Year; it was rare for the old man to come back, so he had to spend more time with him.
Early in the morning, around eight, Su Wan went out. She had breakfast with him, and when they parted, there was a sense of reluctance between them.
In the back seat of the Cayenne, Fu Weiheng held her as she sat on his lap. Their eyes met, and Su Wan awkwardly opened her legs, feeling particularly embarrassed about this position, fidgeting nervously, afraid someone outside might see.
Seeing her restless movements, Fu Weiheng directly wrapped his palm around her waist and leaned in to cover her mouth with his.
Su Wan felt powerless to resist and could only cling to his neck in submission.
After a long while, Fu Weiheng finally released her, his breathing heavy. His lower abdomen was already tense and unbearable; he rubbed his nose against her smooth neck and said in a deep voice, "What should I do? I can't help it..."
Su Wan panicked, fearing he might do something here. She hurriedly said, "Don't... not here. Wait until I get back..."
Fu Weiheng's eyes were filled with desire as he smiled: "Okay, I'll wait until you get back."
Su Wan's face turned red as she suddenly realized what she had just said. Embarrassed, she buried her face as low as possible, wishing she could bite her own tongue.
What did it mean to wait until she got back!
Had she lost her mind?
Before parting again, they embraced for a while. Fu Weiheng bit her rounded earlobe gently and whispered, "Remember to think of me."
Su Wan shrank her head slightly and said, "…Hmm."
He continued, "Remember to call me, every day."
"Mm..."
"Don't always wait for me to call you." He opened his mouth and bit her delicate collarbone.
"Mm..." Su Wan instinctively frowned.
"Let's go back on the sixth?" It was a statement.
"Hmm?"
"I'll come to pick you up." He extended his tongue and licked her slender neck, then gave it a heavy kiss. "Grandpa wants to see you."
Su Wan was mesmerized by his kiss and unconsciously replied, "Mm..."
After sending Fu Weiheng off, Su Wan went upstairs with a distracted mind.
Su Yue had gone to the market early in the morning, Old Qin was still out in the park exercising, and Qin Mu had just woken up and was sitting in the dining room having breakfast.
Seeing Su Wan return, he asked, "Did brother-in-law leave?"
Su Wan gently replied, "Mm."
Qin Yan came out of his room just in time to cross paths with Su Wan. His gaze flickered over her, and as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly glinted with a mocking smile that was extremely strange.
Seeing him in such a bizarre state made Su Wan feel inexplicably anxious. "Wha... what's wrong?"
Qin Yan raised an eyebrow and said, "…It's nothing." He then went to the kitchen, poured a cup of coffee, pulled out a chair, and sat down to eat bread while playing on his phone.
Su Wan glanced at him inexplicably, poured a glass of water at the dining table, and expressionlessly sat down opposite Qin Mu.
Seeing her distracted state, Qin Mu stuffed a slice of toast into his mouth in one go, took a sip of milk, and comforted her, saying, "Sister, don't be sad. You two will see each other again in a few days. Right now, you just need to… What the hell!"
His previously calm voice suddenly shouted, startling Su Wan, who was holding the water cup. She jumped and spilled a third of the water.
Then they heard Qin Mu call out loudly, "Sister! Is that a strawberry on your neck?"
Su Wan was taken aback and instinctively raised her hands to cover both sides of her neck. Embarrassed, she stood up and headed to the bathroom.
Qin Mu covered his mouth and laughed mischievously, "Tsk tsk tsk, things are getting intense..."
Qin Yan calmly took a sip of coffee without looking up and said in a deep voice, "Underage, shut up."
Qin Mu: "………………………"
In the bathroom, Su Wan looked at the obvious red mark on her pale neck in the mirror. Suddenly, the image of Qin Yan's mocking smile popped into her mind.
In an instant, she felt utterly embarrassed.
After dinner that evening, Su Wan hesitated for a long time in her room before finally knocking on Su Yue's door. "Auntie, can I talk to you?"
The door was not closed; Su Yue was inside folding clothes. Hearing her voice, she put down what she was doing, got up, and walked over with a smile. "What do you want to talk about?"
"Auntie…" Su Wan lowered her head, her expression faint and devoid of any emotion. "About my mom…"
Su Yue was taken aback for a moment, surprised that she had brought up Jiang Yun. She glanced at the noisy television outside and patted Su Wan's shoulder. "Come on, let's talk in your room."
The door was closed, and the room fell silent for a moment. Su Wan pulled open the drawer and took out an old photo album, handing it over.
Su Yue stared at the unfamiliar album in confusion and asked, "What is this?"
Su Wan replied calmly, "This... belongs to my mother."
Su Yue paused her fingers on the pages, glanced at Su Wan, and then opened the first page of the album.
Everything inside was beyond Su Yue's imagination.
After a long time, she silently flipped to the last page, her expression slightly tense. "You just said this is your mother's?"
Su Wan nodded.
Su Yue asked again, "How did it end up with you?"
Su Wan bit her lip and ultimately told Su Yue everything Jiang Zhi Yan had said, leaving nothing out.
...
After listening to Su Wan, Su Yue felt inexplicably bittersweet. Although she had no feelings for Jiang Yun, she hadn't expected that so many unimaginable things were hidden within this.
After a moment of silence, Su Yue asked, "What do you plan to do?"
Su Wan looked at the yellowed cover of the old album and finally said slowly, "I... no longer blame her..."
Later on, Su Wan finally understood.
Why her father loved her so deeply;
Why her father never regretted it.
Why did Father keep muttering about her even before he left?
Why did Father always say: Don't blame her, she is your mother...
Perhaps back then, Father already knew why she was leaving.
To ensure that she could leave without worries,
He didn't confront it, didn't hold her back, and bore it all alone.
Father's attitude towards her
Was always one of forgiveness.
Su Yue smiled lightly, raised her hand to ruffle her hair: "Guan Guan, you know that no matter what you do, your aunt will support you, especially since she is your mother."
