1588 The Princess Returns
On stage, Jun Shiling was still talking.
“I haven’t been back for more than ten years. Thank you for taking care of Jun-”
Jun Shiling was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly stopped and looked straight at the last row below the stage.
Could it be an illusion?? I seemed to have seen Xia Wanyuan’s figure just now, but when I looked over, there was nothing.
Jun Shiling paused for too long, and the guests below began to look back, but there was nothing??
“Father, what’s wrong?” Jun Yin looked at Jun Shiling in confusion. “What’s the matter?”
Jun Shiling shook his head. “It’s nothing. Continue.”
Because he had been in a daze just now, Jun Shiling was a little distracted in the following speech. He hurriedly ended the speech, then walked off the stage and sat in his seat.
The main character today was Jun Yin. Today was his coming-of-age ceremony and his birthday.
After all the agendas ended, everyone began to send Jun Yin the gifts they had prepared.
Jun Yin stood on stage and thanked the guests as he accepted the gifts.
Putting the box in his hand aside, Jun Yin prepared to receive the next gift. However, when he reached out, the other party did not give him anything.
Jun Yin looked up and was stunned.
“M-mom?” Facing this pair of bright and gentle eyes and that extremely familiar face, Jun Yin could not help but call out.
Looking at the tall and handsome Jun Yin, who was already 186 years old, the corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled up into a smile. She nodded. “Mm, I want to give you a gift for your coming-of-age ceremony.”
As Xia Wanyuan spoke, she opened her arms to Jun Yin.
Jun Yin’s eyes turned red as he hugged Xia Wanyuan tightly. He was already much taller than Xia Wanyuan, but he still leaned on her shoulder like a child.
“Mommy, you’re finally back.”
Xia Wanyuan patted Jun Yin’s back. “Mm, I’m back.”
Seeing Xia Wanyuan suddenly appear, the entire hall fell silent. Everyone could not help but look at Jun Shiling, who was sitting in the first row.
Jun Shiling’s expression did not change. He still maintained his original position.
No one knew that the place he was holding had already been cracked by him.
On stage, the two of them had hugged for long enough. Xia Wanyuan patted Jun Yin’s back. “Alright, let’s end the ceremony first and talk when we get back.”
“Okay.”
The biggest gift for this coming-of-age ceremony had already been received. Now, Jun Yin could not wait to bring Xia Wanyuan home. He pulled Xia Wanyuan down the stage and handed the rest to the host.
Below the stage, Jun Yin and Xia Wanyuan stood in front of Jun Shiling.
“Father, let’s go back first.” Jun Yin knew that the calm Jun Shiling’s heart must be surging.
Jun Shiling’s gaze had been glued to Xia Wanyuan, not even daring to blink. He nodded. “Okay.”
When he was done speaking, Jun Shiling did not move.
Xia Wanyuan pursed her lips and stepped forward to pull Jun Shiling’s hand. She whispered into his ear, “I’m back. Let’s go back.”
Only then did Jun Shiling finally come back to his senses. He held Xia Wanyuan’s hand backhandedly, squeezing it so hard that it almost left red marks.
He finally stood up and held Xia Wanyuan’s hand as they left the hall.
After they left, the silence in the hall was finally broken.
“Xia Wanyuan?! She’s back!! Why do I feel that she’s no different from more than ten years ago?!”
“Damn, I actually cried. Where did Xia Wanyuan come from? It’s too sudden.”
Outside the hall, Jun Jiajin and Little Xiaxia, who had heard the news, ran over. Seeing Xia Wanyuan, the two of them hugged her.
“Mommy!!!”
