498 We’re getting married.

While eating, no one said a word. At times, Han Zihao and Grandfather Jiang did exchange some words but Xu Nuan stayed quiet during the whole time and was busy eating.

It was true that she was upset that Han Zihao didn’t tell her anything in advance. However, more than that, she was so hungry that she couldn’t focus much on their conversation and was busy gobbling up all the food as if she had been starving for a few days.

After the meal, Han Zihao asked the waitress to clean the table and bring some pu erh tea for everyone to drink after the meal to digest it. Along with the tea, Xu Nuan also got a piece of strawberry mousse cake for herself.

Jiang Ru and Jiang Yahui’s evil secret has been revealed to the public. How can she miss the dessert on such a special occasion?

While Xu Nuan was devouring the cake, Grandfather Jiang couldn’t help but feel contended to see his granddaughter eating happily.

After her parents death, he had rarely seen Jiang Yue to eat together with them.

In the past, she used to skip out on having meals together with them at the dining table by saying that she is either tired or not feeling well and stays in her room the whole time.

After some point, she even stopped making any excuses. At that time, he used to think that she was going through puberty and that is why she is being so rebellious and stubborn.

However, after finding out the truth and what Jiang Ru did to her, he realized the cause of her mushroom allergy and why she never ate together with them.

.....

It was because she had an eating disorder due to which she cannot eat food with other people or especially whom she doesn’t trust completely. Because she was afraid that history might repeat itself.

How can she trust anyone when her cousin gave her a lifelong trauma? It was because of that incident she blamed herself the whole life and thought that she is the cause of her parents death.

It’s not like she was being stubborn or rebellious, it was because she was going through so many things that he failed to notice as her Grandfather.

However, seeing her eating happily once again, his eyes welled up with tears. His little girl is finally living a happy life that she deserves.

Moreover, she is not alone. She is living her life with the man she loves the most. He cannot be happier than this.

While eating, Xu Nuan paused in her actions when she heard someone sniffling and looked up. She pursed her lips when she saw the teary eyes of her Grandfather.

“Why…are you crying suddenly? Everything is settled now. There is no need for you to worry about anything.” Her heart ached to see the old man crying so vulnerably and said while handing him out a tissue paper. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐om

“I am just….so happy that you’re back and living your life happily. Jiang Yue, I am sorry. As your Grandfather and your only guardian, I failed to protect you. Please forgive me.” Grandfather Jiang, who was silently crying, burst into tears as soon as he said the words that he had been suppressing in his heart for such a long time.

Xu Nuan’s eyes turned red when Grandfather Jiang apologized to her. He didn’t even do anything wrong yet seeing him apologizing to her like this, it felt as if all the misunderstanding that were building up in their relationship suddenly disappeared.

“You don’t need to apologize for anything. You didn’t do anything wrong. Those who did wrong, they will receive the punishment.” She sniffled and said while lowering her head to hide her tears.

She bit her lower lips and tried to control herself from crying. However, before she knew it, tears were rolling down her cheeks and she was sniffling along with the old man.

Han Zihao didn’t say anything and quietly passed a tissue to Xu Nuan to wipe her tears. Although he hates to see her crying like this, today is an exception.

“What? So you already know about this news?” Xu Nuan was in disbelief when she found out that Han Zihao already told Grandfather Jiang that she is pregnant.

She was planning to break this news to Grandfather herself and make the old man cry out of happy tears once again. However, she didn’t know that she would be surprised in return instead.

How can they be so close already to share this kind of news? Why does it feel like Han Zihao is closer to Grandfather Jiang than she is to him?

Grandfather Jiang let out a throaty laughter to see Xu Nuan getting upset with Han Zihao and said, ” Jiang….Ah, Xu Nuan. It’s not Han Zihao’s fault. He simply told me about this news to cheer me up because I was feeling depressed by all the things going on around me.”

“However, the news of you being pregnant helped me alot to gather all of my strength and fight head on with the sinners. Rather than getting upset with him, you should thank him instead. It was because of him that I could come this far and sit in front of you without feeling guilty and ashamed.”

Xu Nuan glanced at Han Zihao and smiled at him proudly. This man is truly an angel in her life. The angel who brought the best in her life.

Because of him, all puzzles in her life are now coming together and taking the form of an art.

Han Zihao looked at Xu Nuan and then Grandfather Jiang. He cleared his throat and straightened his back before saying, ” Mr. Jiang, there is one more thing that you should be aware of.” He started.

Xu Nuan frowned and wondered what new bomb he was planning to burst on their heads. However, when she saw his meaningful smirk, she understood what was going on in his head.

She pursed her lips and lowered her head in embarrassment and let him deal with her Grandfather. “You go ahead.” She murmured and gestured to him to continue.

“Hmm? What is going on here?” Grandfather Jiang raised his eyebrows and wondered why they were acting so mysteriously.

Han Zihao rubbed his sweaty palms on his thighs nervously before saying, ” Grandfather, do you remember the question that you asked me the last time when I told you about Xu Nuan’s pregnancy?” He asked.

“Gr..Grandfather?” Grandfather Jiang was caught off guard when Han Zihao called him Grandfather rather than addressing him as Mr. Jiang. He was too shocked to respond to his question.

Han Zihao cleared his throat and continued, ” The last time you asked about when we are going to hold the wedding. At that time I couldn’t give you a proper answer because we hadn’t talked about our future until that time.”

Han Zihao stood up from the chair and bowed to the old man before announcing, “However, I have arranged this meal to officially ask you Xu Nuan….I mean Jiang Yue’s hand in marriage from you.” He didn’t forget to call Xu Nuan by her original name.

“Ah?” Grandfather Jiang was surprised when Han Zihao suddenly bowed to him and asked for Jiang Yue’s hand in marriage to him.

He glanced at Xu Nuan, who was lowering her head and was hiding her face away from him in embarrassment.

He pursed his lips and burst out in a throaty laughter at the way the great businessman Han Zihao was bowing his head in front of him to ask for Jiang Yue’s hand in marriage.

He clapped his hand in happiness and stood up and patted Han Zihao’s back with two strong slaps and said, ” Haha. You do not need to lower your head in front of me.”

“Although I don’t deserve to give you any permission to be with Jiang Yue, I wish you two happy prosperous lives ahead.”

“However, don’t you dare make my granddaughter cry. Don’t forget that I will be standing behind her. I will not leave you if you make her cry.” Grandfather Jiang warned him.

“You do not need to worry about it. I cannot see her cry myself. Before you, I will punish myself for making her cry.” He said and sat back on his chair.

Grandfather Jiang nodded as he was pleased by Han Zihao’s sincere personality.

While the two men were happily pouring drinks to each other, Xu Nuan cleared her throat and glanced at Han Zihao, reminding him about something. Although they weren’t planning to do this here. Since things have come so far already, it’s better to end everything at once.

“Ah, How can I forget about that?” Han Zihao clasped his hands together when he remembered about the most important thing that he had prepared before coming here.

“Grandfather, I brought this for you.” Han Zihao suddenly took out something from the inner pocket of his coat and put it on the table and passed it towards the old man.

“What is it?” Grandfather Jiang looked at a starry blue envelope which Han Zihao took out from his coat pocket.

It looked like some kind of fancy invitation card. However, what kind of invitation card it could be, he wondered.

Han Zihao smiled at the old man and lowered his head in respect before saying with a bright smile, ” It’s a wedding card. Jiang Yue and I are getting married in two weeks.” He revealed.

Grandfather: “...”
