Just as he thought that she was going to brush off the old generation’s grudges like they were meaningless…
He saw Su Xiaoxiao slowly raise her head, with a deep sorrow gathering in her eyes.
Her chubby little hand hesitantly pulled out the handkerchief and flicked it in the mid air.
In an instant, she seemed to transform.
Clutching her handkerchief to her chest, Su Xiaoxiao’s expression turned dramatically sorrowful.
She gazed deeply at Wei Ting, eyes brimming with unshed tears.
"Unless mountains crumble and heaven merges with earth… only then would I part from you."
"Husband is the steadfast rock, and wife is the resilient reed. Unshakable as stone, everlasting as silk!"
Wei Ting: “Speak human words.”
Su Xiaoxiao turned her face away, sobbing pitifully, “We’re not meant to be. Let’s never see each other again.”
Wei Ting: “Then return my sons back.”
Su Xiaoxiao instantly turned back with a bright smile, “Darling, let’s go home ah~!”
Su Mo: “…”
Late at night.
In the carriage back, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t resist the pull of sleep and drifted off, dozing drowsily.
Wei Ting sat beside her.
He raised his hand, gently guided her head to his shoulder, and let her lean against him.
His gaze remained cold as ever.
But his fingers lightly held hers, resting them on his thigh.
His fingertips stroked the back of her hand, and in his brows, there was a hidden tenderness.
Su Mo silently turned his head away.
The carriage arrived at Lihua Lane.
Su Ergou, dozing in the main hall while waiting for his older sister, snapped awake at the sound of the wheels.
“Sis!”
He ran out quickly and opened the courtyard door.
Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes slightly and stumbled out of the carriage in a daze.
Su Ergou looked at Wei Ting, who got off the carriage with Su Xiaoxiao, and his eyes lit up: “Brother-in-law?”
“Mm, why are you still awake?” Wei Ting asked casually, his eyes fixed on Su Ergou, but his hand lifted subtly to shield the doorframe.
Su Xiaoxiao’s forehead grazed the back of his hand as she passed through.
Su Xiaoxiao went inside the house.
Father Su hadn’t gone to bed either.
He was still waiting for his daughter at home.
“Daughter, you’re back ah?”
“Mm… sleepy…”
She opened the door to her room and flopped face-first onto the bed.
Father Su walked to the entrance.
“Huh? My son-in-law is back too? What’re you doing standing there? Come in already!”
Then he turned and spotted Su Mo, who had also stepped down from the carriage. “Ah, you’re… you’re the son of Mr. Su, right?”
“Umm……” Su Mo opened his mouth and spoke softly, “Uncle Su.”
Su Cheng looked at him, then at Wei Ting. “Do you know each other? Did you come together?”
The two of them didn’t answer for a moment.
This was not easy to answer.
Saying ‘no’ would be a lie.
But if they said ‘yes’ and Su Cheng asked what their relationship was…
Should they say that they were mortal enemies trying to kill each other?
Thankfully, Su Cheng wasn’t too interested.
“Well then, it’s already late. I won’t keep you, it’s best for you to head home. Don’t keep your family worrying.”
He waved Su Mo off, then pulled Wei Ting inside.
“There’re still hot buns in the pot…”
“You should go check on Erhu later, he was complaining about a toothache this afternoon……”
“Ergou’s that thing broke again, I spent all night fixing it…”
“Dad, you should go to bed. I’ll handle it.”
“Alright, alright. I’ll go to bed… I’m really exhausted… Don’t forget to put out the fire under the stove or it’ll burn through the pot……”
“Got it, Dad.”
“Ergou, why are you still dawdling around? Hurry up and go back to your room to sleep!” Su Cheng shouted.
“Okay!” Er Gou replied to his father’s call, then turned to the stunned Su Mo and said, “Young Master Su, I… I’m closing the door now.”
Su Mo nodded.
As the door closed in front of him, his mind flashed back to the conversation he had with Wei Ting in the carriage.
“Do you know who she is?”
“I know.”
“And you still……?”
“I’m willing to.”
He had long known that the youngest son of the Wei family was unruly and didn’t care for rules or tradition.
To him, all the rules and etiquette were nothing but nonsense.
But what he hadn’t expected… was that Wei Ting would even disregard family blood feuds.
Wei Xichao… I hope you can truly protect her.
