Qiao Lian’s face instantly bushed again.
Xia Yehua did not notice her embarrassment and went on, “I was waiting for you two to come home so that we could discuss this. At some point, I saw on the CCTV that your car was just outside and you were there for a long time before you came in. I was getting really worried and was about to go out to get you.”
Qiao Lian kept silent.
This was way too embarrassing.
She gave Shen Liangchuan a fierce glare and then smiled awkwardly at Xia Yehua.
Shen Liangchuan cleared his throat and looked at Shen Zihao, “Why are you getting married all of a sudden?”
His question caused Xia Yehua to look away from Qiao Lian.
She turned to her younger son as well. “That’s right. Why so sudden?”
Shen Zihao looked at the coffee table in the living room for a moment.
This was the first time he had visited since Xia Yehua had fallen ill.
Initially, he had only intended to accompany Xia Nuannuan to the door and was going to leave right after that.
However, Xia Nuannuan had said, “Your mom is in there. Shouldn’t we at least tell Aunt Xia that we’re going to get married? Can you imagine how devastated she’d be if she found that out from someone else?”
The moment she mentioned that it would devastate Xia Yehua, it made him think of her weak heart.
He reluctantly came in.
When he entered the apartment, he saw that Xia Yehua was practicing her movements using a walking stick.
Her right arm and leg were numb, so she had to exercise to recover.
After going through this bout of illness, he could see that a few strands of white had appeared among her black hair.
Seeing his mother in this state made his heart ache, for some reason.
This woman had given birth to him and taken care of him till he was in his teens, and then she had left him.
He was full of resentment towards her but now, facing the aged Xia Yehua, those words of hatred and anger would not come out.
Even the feelings of resentment had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
He followed Xia Nuannuan as she walked into the living room. He had even been obedient when Xia Yehua had asked him to stay till Shen Liangchuan came home.
He did not understand why he had suddenly become this generous with the woman.
So now, he looked up when Shen Liangchuan asked the question and glanced at Xia Nuannuan.
She turned red and hung her head.
Shen Zihao replied impatiently, “We’re just getting married, what’s so sudden about it?! Aren’t you happy to see us get married?”
Xia Yehua immediately replied, “Happy! Of course, I’m enthusiastic and happy! Nuannuan has been by my side for a month now and she’s been nothing but meticulous. She’s a good girl!”
Xia Nuannuan blushed at the praises.
These words seemed to alleviate the tension with Shen Zihao.
Shen Liangchuan, however, asked again, “And will Shen Xiu and Mei Feng agree to this?”
Shen Zihao frowned and said in an icy tone, “Of course. As long as I’m happy, they’ll accept it.”
Shen Liangchuan did not comment on this. Feeling the tension between the two brothers, Xia Yehua quickly said, “Has a date for the wedding been chosen?”
“We’ll go and get our certificate tomorrow.” Shen Zihao said, “We wanted to go today, but it was delayed.”
Xia Yehua nodded immediately and said, “Good, good.”
Then all five of them fell silent again.
Feeling awkward, Shen Zihao stood up and headed for the door, saying, “I’ll leave now.”
