n“Let’s register our marriage tomorrow.”

nAfter Yan Wangchuan said this, Qiao Aiyun was stunned for a moment, and her eyes suddenly flushed red.

n“If you’re worried about Wanwan, you can discuss it with her when we get back. I’m a little impatient…” His voice paused. “But…

n“I can wait for you.”

nQiao Aiyun turned her head. “Thank you so much for taking care of me when I was hospitalized. You took care of me so well and didn’t feel that I was dirty either. You couldn’t sleep well in the hospital and still had to work during the day. I… I really don’t know what to say.”

n“Don’t reject me.”

n“Reject?” Qiao Aiyun just wanted to thank him properly.

n“On TV, people always give a good person card before rejecting someone.”

nQiao Aiyun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. During her hospital stay, he had indeed watched TV dramas with her, and there were all kinds of melodramatic scenes.

n“I don’t plan to reject you. But registering our marriage is a big deal. I still need to talk to Wanwan about it.” If they really registered their marriage, both of their families would be involved, and in her heart, she was probably still more concerned about her daughter.

nTeenagers were very sensitive.If she was resistant to it, then they might have to tackle this problem for a long time.

n“Okay.” Yan Wangchuan nodded.

n***

nThe two of them only went home the next morning.

nSong Fengwan had video chatted with Fu Chen until late last night, so she woke up late the next day. When she went downstairs, it was already lunchtime.

nHer schedule during her senior year was very full, and now that she was completely free and on break, she suddenly didn’t know what to do.

n“I made you some sweet and sour fish. After lunch, we’ll go to the resort.” Qiao Aiyun poured her a glass of warm water. “Since you just woke up, drink some water first.”

n“Okay.” Song Fengwan took the glass and glanced at Qiao Aiyun.

nIt was already June. Although there was a temperature difference during the day and the night, it was still the season to wear short sleeves. But Qiao Aiyun was oddly wearing a long-sleeved shirt.

nSong Fengwan was sleepy-eyed and yawning as she squatted in front of the French windows and fiddled with the few pots of succulents, not paying much attention to Qiao Aiyun.

nYan Wangchuan’s assistant came over and delivered a few documents.

nYan Wangchuan was going to stay at the resort for about three days, and there were some urgent matters he had to process during this period of time, so the assistant could only bring the documents.

n“Do you want to have lunch before leaving?” Qiao Aiyun greeted him.

n“No thanks. I’m just here to deliver this. Please inform President Yan about it.” Yan Wangchuan was having a video conference upstairs, so his assistant didn’t disturb him. But from the corner of his eye, he saw Qiao Aiyun’s exposed neck, the back of her hand, her calf…

nEven though she had hidden them pretty well, there were some places that couldn’t be covered up.

nYan Wangchuan’s assistant felt embarrassed just by looking at them.

n***

nThey had originally planned to go to the resort in the afternoon, but Geng Ying informed them that she was only able to arrange a prison visit in the afternoon. Otherwise, they might have to wait for a while.

nThus, Qiao Aiyun took Song Fengwan to the prison in south Yuncheng. It took more than an hour to drive there from their home, so the two of them bought some things at the supermarket.

nSong Fengwan went in to visit Song Jingren while Qiao Aiyun waited outside.

nThis was the first time the father and daughter had met in more than six months. Song Jingren’s hair was short, his figure was thin, and his cheekbones were sunken. There was no sign of hope or high spirits in his face at all. When he saw Song Fengwan, tears started trickling down his face…

nHe repeated a sentence over and over again. “You’ve grown taller and become prettier.”

n“I bought some things for you. They’re all of your favorite brands. I don’t think I can send some of them in, but there are a few books. You can read them when you have nothing to do…” Song Fengwan didn’t know what to say when she saw him.

nShe just felt that she had to meet him.

n“Wanwan, I’m sorry!” Song Jingren covered his face, too ashamed to see her.

nThe visitation time was very short, so the two of them didn’t talk much.

nSong Fengwan blamed and hated him, but it was impossible for her to remove this person from her life. When she recalled some things, it always felt like torture for her. But after seeing his face, she instead thoroughly let go of all those feelings.

nOn the way back home, Qiao Aiyun pondered for a long time before finally saying, “Wanwan, what do you think of Uncle Yan and me getting married?”

nSong Fengwan turned her head and looked at Qiao Aiyun. After I go to university, it will probably be difficult for me to come home except during winter and summer vacations. When I start working, I might leave her too.

nQiao Aiyun used to say that she would bring Song Fengwan to live with Qiao Wangbei and Qiao Xiyan in Suzhou after the college entrance examination.

nBut no matter what, it’s better for her to have an intimate person right by her side…

n“I think Uncle Yan is pretty good. As long as he treats you well, I have no objections.”

nOnly then did Qiao Aiyun’s tense nerves completely relax.

n***

nSong Fengwan had no objections to Qiao Aiyun getting remarried. Yan Wangchuan planned to register their marriage with her the next day because he would only feel at ease when she entered the Yan family’s household register.

nYan Wangchuan intended to hold a grand wedding. But it was Qiao Aiyun’s second marriage after all, and she was older now, so she didn’t want to be too high-profile.

nThe two of them planned to go to Nanjiang to hold a banquet and only invite some of their close friends and family.

nAlthough the wedding wouldn’t be grand, Yan Wangchuan didn’t want to miss any of the must-dos, such as the wedding house, wedding photos, and honeymoon.

nThey weren’t able to go to the resort, and Song Fengwan received news that she would be going to Nanjiang within the next few days.

nIn Nanjiang, there were snow-capped mountains and flowers all around, so it felt like spring all year round. It was also a famous tourist destination, and it was the peak travel season, so the inns and hotels were already full.

nThere were still more than twenty days until the college entrance examination results came out, so Qiao Aiyun thought of bringing her there to play.

nFu Chen had already booked plane tickets to Yuncheng and was waiting for them to return from the resort to meet Song Fengwan and ease his lovesickness.

nBut now…

nThey’re going straight to Nanjiang?

nNanjiang was more than half of the country away from Beijing, and it took more than half a day to travel by plane from Beijing to Nanjiang.

nShe’s getting farther and farther away from me.

n“Third Brother, are you unhappy?” Song Fengwan hadn’t expected Yan Wangchuan to act so quickly either.

nHe was swift and decisive. Once he said that he wanted to hold a wedding banquet, he immediately planned to return to Nanjiang.

nThis concerned her mother’s lifelong happiness, so she had no reason to stay in Yuncheng alone.

n“No.” Not only could Fu Chen not have any objections, but he also had to personally prepare a big gift for Yan Wangchuan and Qiao Aiyun when they got married.

n“I’ll be back before the results are out. The things to deal with to get married are quite cumbersome. Besides…” Song Fengwan frowned slightly. “I still have to meet the other Yan family members. I’m a little scared.”

n“When we get married, I’ll arrange everything. You just have to prepare to be my bride.”

nSong Fengwan blushed. Why did this person jump to this?

nAfter hanging up, she looked at the date. She had to pack her things. It was tentatively scheduled for them to leave for Nanjiang in three days, so she actually still had some time…

nShe checked airline flights and took out the red packet money she had saved over the years from her drawer and the bank card Old Madam Yan gave her during Lunar New Year. She told Qiao Aiyun that she was going to a friend’s house to play for a few days and hurriedly left.

n“Those children are going crazy after the college entrance exam ended. I thought this girl was going to be well-behaved, but now she’s definitely going out with someone to play.”

nThe college entrance examination had just ended, and parents felt that their children had worked hard in their studies, so they had fewer restrictions on them during this period of time…

nSong Fengwan was very well-behaved, so Qiao Aiyun never thought that she would lie to her.

nThat night, Song Fengwan bought the latest flight of the day to the capital.
