When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 646: So It Was You (Part 6)
Sheng Jianan set the wedding date on the traditional Qixi Festival, inviting only a few familiar people.
Shen Jiyan has already returned to France; he will come directly from France at that time, while the others will depart from B City on Sheng Jianan’s private plane.
The day before departure, Tang Yanqi, Sheng Jianan, and Sheng Jiayu went to the cemetery together, and they knelt before Mr. Sheng’s tombstone, bowing respectfully three times.
Looking at the loving smile on the elderly man’s tombstone, Tang Yanqi pressed her lips together and said, "Grandpa, Jianan and I are having another wedding. You used to worry I’d be wronged, but now you can rest assured, I won’t be wronged, not a bit."
Sheng Jianan stood silently, as if firmly rooted there. Mr. Sheng has been gone for more than four years, yet whenever he comes here, it feels as though he hasn’t stepped out from under the shadow of his grandfather’s passing.
That’s how men are; no reaction on the surface, but their hearts linger for a long time.
Sheng Jiayu exchanged a glance with Tang Yanqi, and the two of them left first, leaving Sheng Jianan alone in front of the tombstone.
Tang Yanqi glanced back and, from a distance, saw Sheng Jianan’s tall figure slowly squat down, one hand leaning against the tombstone, the other pouring two glasses of the wine he had brought.
"Jianan and Grandpa’s affection is different from a typical family; give him some space, let’s go for a walk over there."
Sheng Jiayu suddenly spoke, and Tang Yanqi nodded: "Okay."
Sheng Jianan’s close bond with Mr. Sheng was something Tang Yanqi was well aware of. She had heard much and seen much about it, so she didn’t think too deeply about Sheng Jiayu’s words.
Sheng Jiayu seemed keen to find someone to talk to and spoke again: "For boys, during the growing process, they always have people they admire. Most admire their fathers, but Sheng Huaiyuan never gave Jianan someone to look up to. Jianan was smarter than most children from a young age. Isn’t it strange, that among ordinary parents, a child like him is born with such high intelligence?"
Tang Yanqi smiled but remained silent.
Mr. Sheng was actually not mediocre at all; within the environment of the Sheng Family, he just didn’t stand out. In the eyes of ordinary people, Mr. Sheng would have counted as remarkable.
As for Mrs. Sheng, a woman whose mind is so meticulous, whose calculations are so precise, how could such a woman have low intelligence? She simply didn’t employ that intelligence in the right places.
They went to visit Mr. Sheng, and then Sheng Jianan accompanied Tang Yanqi to see her mother.
Tang Ruhai and Shen Wanqing were laid to rest together during Tang Yanqi’s final moment of compassion, although they were in the cemetery, Tang Yanqi did not visit.
She looked up at the sky, noting that today’s weather was wonderfully warm and sunny.
——
Departing from B City, they took Sheng Jianan’s private plane and arrived in the United Kingdom at local early morning time. Sheng Jianan had already arranged for a car to directly take them to the castle.
Tang Yanqi stepped out of the car, still groggy from the time difference, when she suddenly heard a sharp voice: "My heavens, am I dreaming?"
Qi Cheng’s eyes lit up, her whole being excited enough to almost roll on the grass.
Tang Yanqi was startled by her shouting, furrowing her brows, and took in the scene before her, being somewhat amazed herself.
A typical European castle, every brick and tile appears to tell tales of bygone eras.
