“Your grandfather is right. Nianyao, you’re indeed too thin. No matter how much you take care of yourself, you won’t gain weight. After the wedding, you and Wencheng will move back to live with me for a while. I’ll make you some herbal dishes to nourish your body,” Grandma Gu said.
Meng Nianyao looked at Gu Wencheng for help. Taking medicine was her number one fear. She resisted everything related to medicine. However, Gu Wencheng didn’t seem to notice it. He continued, “Grandma is right. After the wedding, we can stay there for a while. While staying with Grandpa and Grandma, we can also take good care of Nianyao’s body.”
Meng Nianyao glared at him.
Grandma Gu’s smile deepened when she saw the interaction between the two of them.
Halfway through the meal, Meng Nianyao looked at the pile of food in her bowl and felt a little helpless. She couldn’t give the food to Gu Wencheng in front of her grandparents, but she couldn’t finish it herself. She put down her chopsticks. “Grandpa, Grandma, I’m going to the washroom. Do you want to eat?”
“Okay, come back early. You eat too slowly.” Grandma Gu felt that Meng Nianyao’s bowl didn’t lack food at all, but rather felt that it wasn’t enough, so she picked up another piece of food with her chopsticks. Meng Nianyao finally managed to make a dent in the food, but the food was piled high again.
Meng Nianyao stood in front of the mirror and turned on the tap. The sound of water splashing could be heard. She looked up at herself in the mirror with her delicate features and gentle temperament. She thought of herself when she was trying on the wedding dress, and her eyes curved into crescents unconsciously.
Not long after, the day of the wedding arrived.
There was a group of luxury cars at the entrance of the hotel. The reporters shuttled through the crowd, and the guests were all well-known people. Grandma Gu was dressed in a cheongsam. Her white hair was neatly combed, and she looked dignified when she raised her hand. Beside her, Grandpa Gu was holding a walking stick and wearing a Tang suit. His usually stern face had a smile on it, and he looked gentler than usual. Gu Guanping, who was standing on the right side of the hotel, was wearing a suit and leather shoes, a smile on his face. Lin Ping was the same. She was wearing a qipao that showed off her charm.
“Congratulations, congratulations!” The guests all smiled and congratulated them.
Today was Meng Nianyao and Gu Wencheng’s wedding. Even if Lin Ping was extremely dissatisfied, she could only keep it to herself so that she wouldn’t be made fun of.
In the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel, Meng Nianyao was wearing a wedding dress. Her hair was tied up, and she was wearing a crown. On the crown was a huge blue diamond surrounded by a bunch of smaller diamonds. She wore a diamond necklace worth tens of millions on her flawless neck. She stood in front of the French window in a pair of high heels.
Someone knocked on the door. Gu Wencheng came in wearing a black tuxedo.
“Nianyao,” Gu Wencheng shouted.
Meng Nianyao turned around. When her eyes met Gu Wencheng’s, they curved into a smile. In the room, the stylist and photographer, who had seen countless beautiful and handsome men were all amazed by this scene.
“Why are you here?”
“I missed you.”
Meng Nianyao was shocked by Gu Wencheng’s words.
“Nianyao, are you done?” Grandma Gu’s voice came from outside the door. Gu Wencheng and Meng Nianyao looked at the door together.
“There’s still half an hour. Slow down, Nianyao won’t run,” Grandpa Gu chided.
“I’m just happy. I wanted to see my granddaughter-in-law as soon as possible. But Wencheng, why are you here?” Grandma Gu asked in surprise when she saw Gu Wencheng.
“Grandma, I missed my wife too,” Gu Wencheng said helplessly.
“Grandpa, Grandma.” Meng Nianyao walked over and held Grandma Gu’s hand.
“You’re so beautiful today.” The wrinkles on Grandma Gu’s face were squeezed together. It was obvious that she was really happy.
Meng Nianyao lowered her head shyly. Grandma Gu pulled her to a chair to sit down. She said to Grandpa Gu, “I won’t be going out to entertain people. Let Gu Guanping and Lin Ping do their work.” Then, she touched Meng Nianyao’s hand and thoughtfully asked, “Are you nervous? Your palms are sweaty.”
Meng Nianyao nodded.
“Don’t be nervous.” Grandma Gu stroked Meng Nianyao’s head. “Our Nianyao is so pretty. She shouldn’t be afraid of people looking at her.”
“Grandma, you look good too.”
Grandma Gu laughed heartily. “No matter how good-looking I am, I’m not as good-looking as you are today. Time really flies,” she said as she held Meng Nianyao’s hand and patted the back of it.
Grandma Gu looked at Gu Wencheng with tears in her eyes. “It seems like only yesterday that Wencheng could call me Grandma. In the blink of an eye, he’s already getting married.”
“Grandma.” Gu Wencheng reached out and hugged Grandma Gu, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart. His childhood felt like yesterday.
“Nianyao, Grandma is very confident in handing Wencheng over to you. I’m really relieved,” Grandma Gu said as she held Meng Nianyao’s hand and placed it in Gu Wencheng’s palm..
