The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 232: Happily Ever After

Lovers finally become family.

After a night of passion, the two finally started living a carefree, unrestrained life together.

The morning sun poured freely over the bulging quilt, and the noise outside couldn’t disturb the tranquility inside.

Jiang Yan had already awakened, yet he still lay there pretending to sleep, unwilling to leave the warmth in his arms.

Glistening hairpins, floral beauty, a warm bed through the spring night. How short the night, how high the day, the emperor no longer goes to court.

Haha... Who would have thought there’d be a day like this for him, Jiang Yan? And he rather enjoys it.

Years of habits meant his internal clock would wake him on time, no matter how tired he was the day before.

But to be fair, was he tired yesterday? That bit of exercise doesn’t really count as tiring.

However, for the little pink piggy snoring in his arms, she must be thoroughly exhausted...

Wang Miaomiao’s head rested on Jiang Yan’s arm, her entire body curled up like a boiled shrimp, leaning against his chest, face half-buried in the warm blankets, sleeping a rosy red.

Her gentle breathing felt like a feather tickling his skin.

Jiang Yan kept his eyes closed, one hand beneath her neck, the other resting on her slender waist.

The delicate touch made every pore scream for movement. But hearing her gentle snores, recalling his own boldness last night, he felt sympathy for her and was reluctant to disturb her sweet dreams. So, though he wanted more, he restrained himself.

This sleep extended until the sun was high in the sky.

Perhaps weariness brought deep slumber, anyway, Wang Miaomiao slept very comfortably.

Half-awake, she was about to stretch when she felt the warmth behind her, her mind suddenly recalling last night’s escapade, her face abruptly turning even redder.

She shrank her neck and burrowed back under the covers.

Jiang Yan opened his eyes, looking tenderly at the back of her head with a smile, "Awake? Did you sleep well last night?"

His deep voice was slightly hoarse, and the question left her speechless, feeling that no matter how she answered, it’d be walking into a trap.

Couldn’t he tell how she felt...?

Wang Miaomiao felt a little shy, sensing their current state, and gently nudged his chest with her wrist, moved away from his embrace, and mumbled, "Hmm... you get up."

Seeing her extreme shyness, Jiang Yan didn’t want to irritate her further and cheerfully obliged, "Fine, I’ll get up and make breakfast for you, little lazy cat."

As he spoke, he patted the back of her head lovingly, swiftly got up, and dressed.

While getting out of bed, he said, "I’ll make brown sugar eggs for you, get up soon, it’s almost lunchtime, we might as well combine breakfast and lunch, so much easier..."

His teasing tone made Wang Miaomiao feel her face burning even under the covers.

After he left the room, Wang Miaomiao peeked her head out, looking at the sunlight outside the window, and rolled around in bed in frustration, wrapped in the covers.

After expressing herself a little, she sighed and got up promptly.

Wang Miaomiao stepped out of the room, and from the kitchen, Jiang Yan came out carrying a steaming bowl of brown sugar eggs, "Come and eat, it’s good for you."

Wang Miaomiao glared at him bashfully, as if it was obvious what had happened last night...

She stomped her foot and turned to wash up, her proud little stance warming his heart, thinking she looked fine, not very tired from last night...

His thoughts wandered, his deep eyes pondering something unknown.

Wang Miaomiao came out from washing up, albeit reluctantly, but ate his loving breakfast.

Now that they had become close, their looks and actions were full of meaning, as if wanting to stick together all the time.

But business needed attending. Jiang Yan took Wang Miaomiao back to the Jiang family, announcing the good news of their marriage registration.

Within just one night, the son (grandson) had excelled remarkably, truly worthy of being a Jiang family descendant. Jiang Zhongyi and Mr. Jiang exchanged a look, joyful yet unspoken.

"Grandpa, Dad, Miao Miao and I discussed it, and we’d like to hold the banquet on May 8th, is that okay?" Jiang Yan’s long arm half-encircled Wang Miaomiao, sitting on the sofa, his protective intentions clear.

"Sure, we have no objections, any day is fine, the sooner, the better, haha..." Mr. Jiang smiled, his face wrinkled like a blooming flower. He was truly glad, for his grandson’s marriage was one of his worries too.

Jiang Zhongyi, usually stern-faced, managed a kind and amiable smile, making him seem much more approachable.

"Alright, then I’ll call Father-in-law and Mother-in-law to further confirm," this side having no issue was expected, the main concern was Wang family’s parents, Jiang Yan took a few deep breaths, picked up the phone and dialed the familiar number.

However, no one picked up for a while. His slightly clenched fist showed the unease in his heart.

Wang Miaomiao sensed his tension beside him, realizing... he was nervous too?

Seeing his hand, she felt slightly relieved, knowing she wasn’t the only nervous one, he was too, just hid it better. Haha...

Eventually, the call was answered, but it wasn’t Yang Zhigang. The factory was on rest, only the duty staff were there today.

Jiang Yan regretfully hung up, having left a message telling them to ask Yang Zhigang to return his call. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Alright, let’s wait until they start work tomorrow, this is not urgent." Wang Miaomiao patted his hand to comfort him.

Even if Jiang Yan was anxious, it was futile, he could only nod in agreement.

Phones weren’t yet widespread, tracking people down was circuitous and inconvenient, he thought about perhaps installing a phone in their courtyard too? It seemed necessary... he had to arrange that...

The next workday, Yang Zhigang heard from the duty staff that Jiang Yan had been looking for him, urgently, and quickly called back.

Jiang Yan had been listening for the phone and answered immediately when it rang, exchanged New Year greetings and got down to business.

Hearing the wedding date was set, Yang Zhigang hurriedly called for Liu Yulan and Wang Baoxing.

This conversation lasted over half an hour, Liu Yulan and Wang Baoxing naturally had no objections to their marriage, they were eagerly awaiting it.

Their daughter had been engaged for two years, wasn’t it about time...? They had long wanted to urge them to marry, but being the brides’ side, they felt they should be more reserved and so hadn’t spoken out.

The lengthy chat was a way to learn about the couple’s life, their children being far away, after all, left them with endless worries.

Knowing they were doing well, their hearts were somewhat at ease.

The wedding plans were thus set. Jiang Yan grew even busier, working by day, overseeing their new home’s renovation progress at the courtyard by night.

He hoped that in the limited time, with his efforts, he could give her the best of everything.
