Lu Jinwen meant to say, are you the one getting married here?
Butler Ye kept silent.
Sorry Sir, I was just being happy for you, too happy for you!
Lu Ning’s laughter could be heard from inside. “Brother, now we’ll have to test you. Let’s test you on… your sexual happiness, where was your first time with Sister-in-law?”
Pfft.
The entire crowd burst into laughter. The eldest miss of the Lu family, Lu Ning, was too crude, her first question was already so powerful. Now everyone would have the honor of learning about the private matters of the legendary Young Master Lu and charming Lin Xuanji.
They simply couldn’t wait!
Lu Jinwen furrowed his brows, his lips moved to answer her question. “On the bed.”
Wow.
The madams present that day were all excited once they heard that, their eyes lit up as they started forming the scenes in their heads.
“Brother, here’s another question. Was your first time with Sister-in-law consensual?” Ou Xuyan asked.
In the room.
Lin Xuanji was seated on the bed and Lu Ning’s first question already had her face flushing red, now that Ou Xuyan raised another question, she tugged on Ou Xuyan’s sleeve-—Stop asking.
This was too mortifying!
Lu Jinwen suddenly spoke up. “She wasn’t willing to do it at the beginning but she slowly accepted it as it went along. Let’s just say she wanted it but wasn’t willing to admit it.”
“Sister-in-law, is that really so?” Ou Xuyan asked Lin Xuanji curiously.
Lin Xuanji, “…”
What a liar!
She wasn’t willing to do it the entire time, it was only because she had run out of energy!
“Brother, when is your happiest moment with Sister-in-law?”
Happiest moment…
The corners of Lu Jinwen’s lips kicked up, with a gentle voice, he said, “Whenever she chases me from behind and when I lower my head… and can see her shadow…”
Back then, she used to love pestering him, chasing him from behind. He would always lower his head and secretly peek at her shadow.
He loved watching her, whether it was her being happy or getting angry. He loved having her accompany him to watch the sunset and sunrise. Those times that they had spent together when they were younger were the happiest moments in his life.
“Brother, what about your saddest moment with Sister-in-law?”
Saddest moment…
The smile on Lu Jinwen’s face slowly faded away and his face slowly turned solemn. “When she gave birth to Chenyi…”
That day, their worlds were overtaken by sadness.
Tang Chenyi was leaning against the wall at that moment. Once he heard those words, he slowly lifted his head and glanced at Lu Jinwen.
In the room, Lin Xuanji’s eyelashes fluttered. Tears welled up in her eyes. Knowing that the happiest and saddest moments in his life both involved her was so comforting to her. It was as though a magical balm had run over all of the wounds she had suffered in her younger days, healing them all at once.
Time had passed so quickly and many people and things had already turned blurry in her memories. There was more happiness than sadness in her life at that point of time and she could already forgo all of the bad memories in life.
She was genuinely happy right now.
“Brother, what’s the most important thing you have to say to Sister-in-law now?”
“Brother, you have to think this through carefully. If you don’t say it properly, I’m not going to open this door for you!”
Lu Ning and Ou Xuyan threatened him.
Lu Jinwen looked at the closed door. He spoke up, “Xuanji, I just wanna say… I’m sorry thrice and… I love you thrice.”
I’m sorry thrice…
I love you thrice…
They both were no longer young and had both missed the prime of their youth. He just wanted to say I’m sorry thrice and I love you thrice.
The madams present all had watery eyes. Their love had taken so much blood and tears to blossom only after more than 30 years.
Gu Mohan also glanced at Lu Jinwen. Dad was indeed formidable, he was great at his honeyed words.
Tears welled up in Tang Mo’er’s eyes and two streams of tears quickly trickled down her cheeks. He wanted to say I’m sorry thrice and I love you thrice. It took so much regret and bitterness for them to eventually have a happy ending.
Lin Shiyu stretched her arms out, comforting Tang Mo’er and wiping her tears away. How could she cry on the day of such a joyous event?
But through her tears, Tang Mo’er smiled instead of crying now. Shiyu was right, she should smile now, she had already forgiven Dad!
“Brother…” Lu Ning and Ou Xuyan were still intending to continue questioning him.
But at the next moment, boom! Lu Jinwen had lifted his leg, kicking the door open.
He sauntered into the room, glaring at Lu Ning and Ou Xuyan with dissatisfaction. They’ve both chosen today to go out of hand? His patience had already run out while standing outside of the room.
Lu Ning and Ou Xuyan were stunned, they were still feeling so touched at his words but he just kicked the door open without warning! Unfair!
A leopard never changed its spots. Brother is far too used to his imperious ways!
Lu Jinwen strode over, causing Lu Ning and Ou Xuyan to quickly hide behind Lin Xuanji for protection. “Sister-in-law, please save us, Brother is here to snatch the bride!”
Lu Jinwen’s gaze was fixed on Lin Xuanji, he suddenly froze.
In his eyes, there was only her.
Her off-the-shoulder lacy wedding dress was simple, yet elegant and fit her so well. It was custom-made and was fully able to accentuate her hourglass figure. She had her hair up in an intricate updo and even at her age, she was nonetheless stunning. At that moment when she lowered her eyes, she caused everyone to be mesmerized by her.
Lu Jinwen’s pupils dilated. He had previously imagined her beauty when she was dressed in a wedding dress, but he just hadn’t expected to be so stunning. She was incomparable, no one could compare to her, no one.
He went into a light trance.
Everyone outside had squeezed in, boom! The colorful ribbon suddenly fell from the ceiling like fireworks.
“Wow, the bride is so beautiful!”
“Hurry up and lift the bride up!”
“President Lu, have you gone silly seeing the bride?”…
Everyone was poking fun at Lu Jinwen and laughing loudly. When Lin Xuanji lifted her eyes, her eyes met with Lu Jinwen’s.
He looked at her with an unwavering gaze.
He really seemed to have… gone silly looking at her!
“Sir!” Butler Ye quickly pulled Lu Jinwen out of his trance.
Lu Jinwen quickly got himself together, his handsome face seemed to have blushed a little. He walked in front, bending over and stretching his arm out to lift Lin Xuanji off of the bed.
He had only taken one step before Old Madam Lu shouted, “Silly son, shoes! Xuanji hasn’t put on her shoes yet!”
“Ha ha ha, President Lu is too anxious here since the bride is so beautiful. President Lu just can’t wait!” Everyone started teasing him.
Lu Jinwen returned and placed Lin Xuanji on the bed gently. He went down on one knee and lifted her leg, putting on her high heels.
His calloused fingertips ran over Lin Xuanji’s delicate skin and she could feel her goosebumps. Lowering her eyes, she looked at him while everyone was still happily laughing. She could see his ears getting red.
Was he… shy?
After putting on her shoes, Lu Jinwen got up to lift her up again and the woman’s gaze landed on his face. Her eyes were lustrous and her gaze somewhat flirtatious.
Then there was warmth flooding her as his facial features tensed before he stiffened up, walking out of the room with her in his arms.
