Su Li’s body was trembling gently, and her delicate fingers almost toppled the wine glass she was holding.

Her delicate body suddenly fell into a warm embrace, the familiar scent of the man enveloped her, his strong arms lightly hugged her shoulders, an endless sense of security instantly flowed into her.

Su Li’s anxious heart gradually calmed down, her hands instinctively tightened around Feng Huaijin.

Feng Huaijin embraced his fiancée and gave Andre and his family a slight smile, saying, "Welcome to the three of you, please forgive us for temporarily excusing ourselves."

Holding Su Li, Feng Huaijin turned to walk towards the crowd, a server carrying wine hurriedly followed.

Su Li nestled in his arms, the slightly exposed jade-like back of her silver-white cocktail dress could still clearly feel the gaze falling upon her.

The gaze was intensely scorching, scalding her heart with pain.

It turns out that her adoptive parents didn’t want her, her biological parents were the same, even the mother she always hoped for was like this.

In this world, is there no longer any family member who truly cares for her?

Today brought her so much anticipation, yet now the initial joy of waiting had evaporated.

Su Li walked in Feng Huaijin’s arms to the dark and vacant window of the venue, the summer breeze outside carrying warmth made her feel a bit hot.

Her chin was suddenly lifted by Feng Huaijin’s firm hand, his sharp gaze instantly capturing her.

As soon as Su Li saw his gaze, her nose tingled, the purple gemstone eyes suddenly shimmered with a hint of tears.

Feng Huaijin’s magnetic voice asked quietly, "Feeling sad inside?"

Su Li tightly pressed her lips together, wordlessly silent.

Yet the slightly trembling expression on her face betrayed her.

She felt deeply saddened within.

Feng Huaijin’s dark eyes focused on her, suddenly he softly said, "Do you remember what I told you?"

Su Li gazed into his eyes, first stunned, then gradually understanding.

"I can’t choose a good mother, but... can I be?"

Su Li’s gaze lightly shifted, looking towards the distance. The engagement party was filled with guests happily chatting, holding glasses and talking.

That small reddish figure was weaving through the crowd, the glass of strawberry juice in his hands was already half-drunk.

Vaguely she could see him tilt his head, tugging on Xu Haohao’s clothes as he talked.

Beside Lu Jinghuai, Lu Xiaomian had also recovered, curiously watching the soft little rice dumpling.

Su Li’s eyes filled with mist.

In this engagement party, how many people were truly happy for their engagement?

But she was absolutely certain... Tuanzi was joyful.

He was happy about his parents’ engagement in advance, delighted that he might no longer bear the identity of an illegitimate child, he was the most joyful one for them at the party.

Her lips felt warm, Feng Huaijin had already leaned close and kissed her.

Su Li pretended to hug Feng Huaijin’s neck, gazing into those starry eyes, her voice tinged with the sweet stickiness of red wine: "You’re right, I can’t choose my biological parents, but... we can become good parents."

We can build a happy and fulfilling family with no schemes. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Feng Huaijin gently curled his lips, his voice deeply asked, "Then... when?"

Su Li’s alluring face was involuntarily tinged with a layer of intoxicating red, her ivory teeth gently bit her red lips.

Under Feng Huaijin’s bright expectant gaze, she smiled softly and said, "Tonight."
