Chapter 1988: Chapter 1989: I Never Said You Couldn’t Go In
Anyone who likes someone is a fool; love is too luxurious. She had seen so much parting and death in Afghanistan; in the face of life and death, human emotions are fragile and vulnerable.
Between couples and relatives, emotions are as fragile as paper when faced with life and death decisions.
She doesn’t need such fragile emotions.
To live happily, one must discard the trivialities of life. She feels the most trivial, the most meaningless thing is the love between men and women, and a marriage sustained by a piece of paper.
With love comes arguments and annoyance.
Marriage is even more terrifying.
Every woman is a glowing pearl before marriage, but once taken home, she slowly turns into fish eyes.
There are already plenty of trivial matters in one’s small household; to maintain a marriage, one has to force oneself to adapt to a new environment and a new extended family. To a lazy person like her, it’s better not to marry.
Gu Linxi glanced beside her and sighed.
She used to think this way. Now, seeing Rong Yan and Li Shengxiao step by step into the marriage hall, she suddenly feels doubtful about her firmly-held beliefs.
And that night...
Her angle just happened to allow her to see Cui Jiangjing outside.
Whenever she thought about that night when he locked her against the wall, both threatening and kissing, she still felt her chapped lips hadn’t healed.
She lightly touched her lip corner with her fingertip. Just at that moment, Cui Jiangjing seemed to sense her gaze and suddenly looked over at her.
Their gazes met in mid-air, sparking electric flashes.
In the blink of an eye, even Gu Linxi herself couldn’t understand why she was so flustered that she lowered her head, as if she dared not look into his eyes.
What was she doing?
Gu Linxi bit her lip in frustration, wanting to lift her head, but feeling as if her neck was weighed down by a thousand pounds, she couldn’t muster the courage to lift it.
...
Outside, Jiang Chenyue remained silent for a long time.
Her well-maintained face bore a serious expression, even affecting the pressure outside.
No one knew how long it lasted.
She stepped aside, standing by the door, "Remember your own words. If you go back on what you said to me today, I won’t let you off!"
The Chu Family seems particularly fond of saying they won’t let him off. Li Shengxiao’s eyes showed a slight movement, and he replied in a deep voice, "I know."
Looking up again, he had already adopted a different attitude. His handsome face softened, and he respectfully asked, "Mom, can I go in to meet her now?"
Calling her ’Mom’ filled Jiang Chenyue with mixed emotions and indescribable comfort. She completely stepped away from the doorway, her agreement evident, "Go in. I didn’t say you couldn’t go. Your bride, unless you want to run away, then no one could stop you from taking her away."
Cui Jiangjing: "..."
You didn’t have this attitude just now!
Li Shengxiao couldn’t wait any longer, didn’t wait even for a quarter-hour, and stepped into the room.
"Brother."
"Cousin."
Lin Wan and Su Xiansui called out to him simultaneously.
He didn’t even glance at them, didn’t move his brows a bit, and walked straight to the person sitting on the bed...
Su Xiansui and Lin Wan represented the groom’s family, feeling uncomfortable here, hoping his arrival would be better, but Li Shengxiao ignored them completely, leaving them awkwardly unsure where to place their hands and feet.
Fortunately, Cui Jiangjing was a clever person, and he greeted Lin Wan, alleviating their awkwardness.
