Chapter 321 - I Give You My Word (1)
Tang Moyu was waiting with her daughter for the wedding to start. Hours before the wedding, they were already dressed for the event. They hadn't seen the bride nor the groom, which made sense because they went straight to the hall where the wedding would be held. The two must have been really nervous, waiting for their wedding to commence.
"Mommy, where's Daddy Ji and Yu Gege?" Little Star asked as she sat on her mother's l.a.p. Li Meili was sitting on a stool next to the bar, a few meters away from them.
"They are with your Uncle Number 2. We'll see them later, honey." Tang Moyu replied, patting the side of Little Star's head lovingly.
Little Star was now dressed in a baby pink dress with her hair curled and tied in pigtails. Her dress was the mini version of her mother's, except that that empress's dress was white instead of pink. She couldn't wait to see her Auntie Yaoyao in her wedding dress.
The guests were arriving one by one, but they didn't need to join them anytime soon. Given how prominent the Gu family was, Tang Moyu was sure that there would be a chance that she'd meet Feng Tianhua and Xing Yiyue on this occasion. Perhaps even Yun Zhen would be here to represent his family.
"But they are taking their time to come back." Little Star pouted. She didn't like it when their Daddy Ji or her twin brother wasn't around her.
"Calm down, honey. You'll see them later, okay? They aren't going anywhere without us." Tang Moyu was a little disturbed that her daughter was too attached to Feng Tianyi now, as if it was the most natural thing for Little Star to look for him.
Were she and Feng Tianyi going too fast in this relationship? Tang Moyu wondered. Over half a year had passed since her return and there were times when she pondered if she was doing the right thing for her twins or not.
"What's gotten to you, Moyu? You are awfully silent." Li Meili suddenly appeared next to her with a flute of wine in one hand.
"Nothing, Meili. I'm just waiting for the wedding to start." Tang Moyu continued to play with her daughter's hair. It had gotten longer and had already reached past her waist.
"So Sister Yaoyao is getting married today, and Tianxin will follow shortly. What about you Moyu? Have considered getting married?" Li Meili asked her curiously.
Tang Moyu's hand stopped for a moment, then resumed playing with her daughter's hair.
"You know, Meili. Tianyi and I just got together. I think you are thinking too much." She replied.
"What?" Li Meili chuckled, pressing the rim of her glass on her lips. "Although you are turning thirty soon, I'm not rushing you to get married. I'm just curious since you said marriage isn't for you…" Her words trailed off as she saw the empress shoot her a scathing glare, warning her.
Little Star and Xiao Bao had no idea their mother was once engaged to their Daddy Ji's brother. Oh, how messed up their situation was. Tang Moyu considered her best friend's words.
However, this wasn't the right time to think about settling down. She needed to make sure that her twins would be out of danger first, before considering marriage. A married life with Feng Tianyi? Didn't seem like it's possible in her opinion. She had never imagined herself as a normal wife and she didn't think she was capable of being one.
"Ah, the boys are here. So dashing and handsome, don't you think, Moyu?" Li Meili gave the empress a wink before gesturing to the men heading towards them.
Tang Moyu was utterly surprised seeing both her son and Feng Tianyi looking prim and proper, especially the latter. She couldn't remember a time when she'd seen him looking so formal.
Feng Tianyi placed a kiss on her cheek before he leaned to whisper in her ear.
"Moyu, don't stare at me like that. I might drag you out of here and throw you on bed, and we might not be able to attend the wedding after all." He warned her, his eyes darkening as he stared at her beautiful face.
Tang Moyu looked away, pretending not to hear anything for her children's sake, but she couldn't hide the blush creeping on her face. She kinda wanted to give Li Meili a kick when she saw her starry eyes looking at her, teasing her.
"Anyway, Baobao will stay with us for the meantime." Feng Tianyi gently pinched Little Star's cheek. "Darling, you're so beautiful today."
"But Daddy, I wanna go with you and Yu Gege," Little Star pouted. Why did she need to stay away from them? That's totally unfair!
"It's a boy's thing, darling." Song Fengyan brought down Xiao Bao, who ran towards her mother to kiss her.
"You go and behave, okay? Don't give your Daddy Ji and Uncle Yan any problems." Tang Moyu reminded her son.
With so many people attending the wedding and the banquet later, people would surely notice the presence of her children. There weren't many people who were aware that she had given birth to twins and Tang Moyu wanted to protect their privacy.
At least with Baobao being with Feng Tianyi and Song Fengyan, people might assume that he was part of the Song family and won't question his identity, given how private their family was.
However, it would be a different matter when it comes to Little Star. Her resemblance to the empress was undeniable, people would easily recognize her as Tang Moyu's daughter.
"But…" Little Star wanted to argue but Feng Tianyi shook his head.
"It's only for a while, darling. We'll still be in the same place, but with people crowding the area, we have to be careful, okay?" He smiled.
