Chapter 123
XunMi was left stupefied by this sight. She knew that Han ge was good-looking when he smiled. She also knew that he often had a cold face. The most expressive face he would make is a light smile.
This was her first time seeing Han ge’s smile so freely. She felt as if she was intoxicated. No matter what her husband’s personality was, he would always show a hidden side of himself to her only.
“Han ge, you can’t smile like this to anyone else. From now on, only let me see that smile.” After she snapped out of her infatuation, XunMi saw how all the other ladies on the sidelines were looking at her dear husband with fondness, making her want to explode with discontent.
Her husband was hers, so Han ge naturally was hers too. No one else can covet him. Damn it, if they keep looking, she’s willing to dig out their eyes!
Especially that An ZiYi. She had fallen into a daze, as if stuck in her own world. But when Mo WenHan laughed unrestrained, her attention was completely captured.
“Han ge, if you smile like this to others, I will be unhappy.” XunMi grabbed Mo WenHan’s necktie and pouted.
Mo WenHan laughed amused at XunMi’s expression. Mi’er obviously cared about him if she was acting so possessive. This was very good. He had always feared that his feelings were one-sided.
An ZiYi’s jealousy and malice could not be concealed.
The queen used a fan to cover her face and continued to watch with glee. She had a good impression of XunMi because they had similar personalities. Now, seeing someone trying to cause trouble for her, the queen had naturally sat back and watched.
XunMi and Mo WenHan both skipped the evening party. Instead, they went home to discuss wedding planning with XunMi’s parents.
As for An ZiYi, XunMi had someone send her home and monitor her in the mean time.
“Han ge, Le family is now just an empty shell. I want Le ChenXi to marry Xie TianTian. What do you think? Xie TianTian likes Le ChenXi so much, they’ll probably get along swimmingly in the future.”
BaoBao cursed silently: How exactly did you perceive these two to have an amicable relationship in the future? Madam Host, you’re lying through your teeth!
XunMi slanted her eyes and replied silently: Nonsense, I’m obviously lying through my mouth.
Looking at her expectant gaze, Mo WenHan’s heart softened. “Okay, we’ll do whatever Mi’er says.” If Xie family doesn’t agree, he’ll just have them go down to join Le family.
But Mo WenHan was actually overthinking; the Xie family head only had one daughter, Xie TianTian. Since his daughter unfathomably fell for Le ChenXi, he was willing to help his daughter accomplish her goals.
Father Xun and Mother Xun were on the side deciding on the best date, completely ignoring the young couple’s lovey-dovey actions. They had become immune to it after being overexposed to their behavior in the past two days.
XunMi kissed Mo WenHan on the cheek and cheered, “My Han ge is the best.”
Father Xun looked up in jealousy, “Do your mother and I not treat you well enough? A married daughter really is like spilt water. {T/N: Chinese saying basically meaning that a married daughter now belongs to another family.} You haven’t even gotten married yet and you’re already favoring outsiders. Humph.”╭(╯╰)╮
He turned to his wife for comfort. “Mrs, look at how disobedient your daughter is.”
Mother Xun shoved Father Xun away and placed one hand on her hips while using the other to point at him. “Why are you causing mischief. I had just calculated the most fortunate date but now everything’s mixed up again. Just sit quietly. If you disturb me again, I’ll smack you.” She then sat down again with her tablet and almanac and scoured through the pages.
Father Xun obediently sat back down, not daring to make sudden movements.
XunMi painsakingly held in her laugh by burying herself into Mo WenHan’s chest. However, her rising and falling shoulders still revealed the truth.
Father Xun fumed, wanting to erupt. But one glance at Mother Xun made him wither again.
Mo WenHan liked watching the older couple’s interactions. Love didn’t have just one type. Just like Father Xun and Mother Xun, even though they looked like they were raucously shouting all the time, they were very much in love.
He and XunMi were another type of love: steady with a sprinkle of happiness that only they could understand.
XunMi finally crawled out of Mo WenHan’s arms after controlling her laugh. She picked up the phone laying on the table and made a call to the Xie family head. She placed the call on speaker after the other end answered.
“Xiao Xun, did you need anything calling at this hour?” Xie family head’s tone was very pleasant, carrying a senior’s concern for a junior.
“Uncle Xie, do you remember what I mentioned to you before?” XunMi was straight to the point.
“TianTian and Le ChenXi? I remember. Ah, TianTian has been begging to see Le ChenXi these past days. But Le ChenXi refuses to see her, What an ill-fated relationship.” Xie family head sighed.
“Don’t worry, Uncle Xie. Can you ask TianTian if she is willing to marry Le ChenXi regardless of whether or not he loved her? If she won’t regret it later, if she is willing to bear any consequences in the future? If she says yes, I’ll help her. But Uncle Xie, you must make sure TianTian has thought this through before making a decision.” XunMi had sympathy for the Xie TianTian in this lifetime. She hadn’t actually done anything bad yet An ZiYi threw her into jail and ruined her reputation.
Even if she got out, high society would still dislike her. Now, the possibility of marrying into a good family would be limited.
“Alright, thank you Xiao Xun. I’ll give you a reply in a few days.” In his heart, Xie Yan already could make a guess as to what his daughter’s response would be. Based on her recent behavior, she definitely wouldn’t want to miss such an opportunity.
“Alright, then see you later Uncle Xie.” Hanging up the phone, XunMi let out a mysterious smile.
“Han ge, what do you think An ZiYi would do if she knew Le ChenXi was marrying someone she hated?”
The system had already told her that the mission for the original soul to counterattack was completed when she departed from the royal family’s appraisal site.
Now, she needed to make Le ChenXi feel regret.
Mo WenHan pulled XunMi back into his arms and stroked her back, “Safety first.” He didn’t request anything from her. But the only thing he refused to compromise on was her safety.
XunMi firmly nodded her head. She had gained numerous abilities now. There shouldn’t be anyone in this dimension that could hurt her. But she still knew to be cautious.
“It’s this day! The timing is perfect on this day.” Mother Xun smacked the table with resolve.
XunMi and Mo WenHan looked at each other before turning to look at her. But…
“Mother, isn’t that day just two days from now?” Wouldn’t the timing be a bit too rushed? They haven’t even begun to prepare yet.
Mother Xun waved her hand. “That’s right. Your father and I have been preparing for your marriage for almost ten years. Don’t worry about stuff like the food or invitations. I’ll contact Yu Chen to design your gowns tomorrow.”
