Sweet Beauty

Chapter 280 - I Have A Brother, You Know

The facts had been proved before their eyes. Everything Liang Zixuan said became a reality.

Liang Zixuan didn't know how to explain this to Han Yuanjun. If she said that she was reborn, wouldn't this scare him to death?

He might start treating her like a monster!

Liang Zixuan didn't answer Han Yuanjun's question; instead, she cleverly changed the topic. "This Friday, are we still going to get the certificate?"

Han Yuanjun wasn't stupid. He knew that this girl was deliberately changing the topic, and since she didn't want to talk about it, he couldn't force her. Some things would only come to light if she wanted to talk about them herself.

If he kept forcing her to, it would only push her further and further away.

Han Yuanjun raised an eyebrow. "Of course, we have to get a certificate. I've been waiting a year for you. I'm already 31 years old, you can't possibly think of making me wait for you any longer, can you?"

What was the difference between getting the certificate and not getting it? They, after all, had been living together for a while now.

Liang Zixuan knew that Han Yuanjun only wanted this piece of paper to reassure her.

"Alright, we'll get the certificate on Friday, but ..." Liang Zixuan hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "A wedding ... Can you wait for it for a bit?"

"Wait?" Han Yuanjun looked down at her. Seeing that Liang Zixuan was having a hard time saying it, he hugged her tightly. "How long do you want me to wait? At least give me a deadline."

Liang Zixuan clutched Han Yuanjun's pajamas with all her might. Her eyes turned red. "I ... I don't know."

This sentence made Han Yuanjun so depressed that he wanted to bang his head against the wall.

Although getting the certificate was equivalent to getting married, Han Yuanjun wanted everyone to know that he was married to Liang Zixuan. He wanted everyone to see and feel his happiness. Moreover, with his position in the Han Family, the elders of the Han Family wouldn't allow them to not hold a wedding ceremony.

To put it bluntly, during the engagement ceremony, two families could sit together and have a meal as a way of celebration. Even if the marriage was arranged and forced, the wedding still had to take place. In this society, how many people wanted to see the Han Family making a joke?

Han Yuanjun didn't care about that, but he cared about how others looked and thought about Liang Zixuan.

Without declaring their marriage, in the eyes of outsiders, it meant that Han Yuanjun and the Han Family looked down on her.

No matter where Liang Zixuan went in the future, she'd be slut-shaming and belittled by these people. The amount of self-blame and ridicule she would suffer from that moment will be too much.

Han Yuanjun didn't want to do that and he didn't want such occurrences to happen either.

"Baby." Han Yuanjun sighed softly. "I know you don't care about these stupid things, but have you ever thought about how other people will treat you if we get married with only getting the certificate? If I wasn't anyone, that would be fine, but I... I don't want anyone to say bad things about you."

"I know." Liang Zixuan nodded and shrank back into Han Yuanjun's arms until she actually curled up in his embrace. Then, she snuggled up to him like a kitten.

"I have a brother, you know?"

Han Yuanjun was stunned for a moment before he finally understood. He lowered his head and kissed her hair. "You want to wait until he comes back before we get married?"

"Yes." Liang Zixuan sniffled, thinking of her sad feelings when she heard the news of her brother's death in her previous life. Her tears slowly fell. "Since a child, I had never experienced motherly love and don't know what motherly love is. My brother is my only family. At that time, my grandmother was in the nursery care, only my brother was with me. I was bullied by other classmates, and when I was scolded by others, my brother was the one who protected me."

"The first birthday cake I ate was also bought by my brother. Even my first new dress was bought by him. He's the only warmth in my gray childhood, I ... I want him to be the witness of the most important moment in my life."

How long has it been since she last saw Liang Jiahao?

Liang Zixuan really couldn't remember. Her impression of Liang Jiahao was still from the year she went to high-school. He was wearing a white shirt as he stood under the sunlight and smiled at her. That youthful and spirited appearance of his.

Liang Zixuan suddenly raised her head and held Han Yuanjun's pajamas even tighter. She cried and said, ''Even my name was decided by my brother, and that too when he threatened Wei Guowei with a knife. If I didn't have him, I ... I ... I don't know how I will survive."

"Alright, I understand, I understand." Han Yuanjun hugged Liang Zixuan tightly in panic and kissed the tears on her face. "I understand your feelings for your brother, I understand. I really do understand. Baby, I also have to thank your brother. If he did not protect you, how could I have met you?"

Liang Zixuan choked with sobs. "I... I... I just want him to hold my hand and give me towards you. I want him to personally give my hand to you. I miss him. I really want to see him."

Luo Yanyun and Liang Zixuan could be considered saved in this life. There was only one regret left in her previous life, and that was Liang Jiahao.

"But I do not know where my brother is now. I haven't received any news from him at all! He ... He seems to have suddenly disappeared from my world. But I can confirm that my brother is still alive! I want to wait for him."

"Alright, baby, don't cry, okay. I'll help you find him. No matter how hard it is, I will definitely help you find him!" Han Yuanjun took a deep breath and felt his heart ache for his little girl.

If it were anyone else, they would have been so eager to marry him earlier. The wedding ceremony would definitely be the most grandeur and luxurious.

However, Liang Zixuan never asked for anything. She was always looking at these objects nonchalantly and never moved.

Han Yuanjun did not discuss the wedding with the Han Family's elders in front of Liang Zixuan. He simply called the Han Residence and told Old Madam Han and Old Man Han about Liang Zixuan's thoughts.

Unexpectedly, Old Madam Han not only was not upset with what he had said but even praised Liang Zixuan to the heavens.

That she was loyal, that she was grateful.

Han Yuanjun sighed helplessly. He could understand her love and righteousness, but where did Old Madam Han's kindness come from?

Fortunately, the Han Family's elders could understand.

After hanging up, Han Yuanjun called Yao Xiu to his office.

"Yao Xiu, help me find someone by any means necessary. Help me find Liang Jiahao. He may be in the army now, but I am not sure which unit he's in. Help me find him. The sooner, the better."

Yao Xiu paused. Who was Liang Jiahao?

He suddenly realized that if his last name was Liang, then he must have had a deep relationship with Liang Zixuan. Otherwise, Han Yuanjun wouldn't have made such a big fuss over him.

"Alright, President Han. I understand. If he is just in the regular army, then finding him would be easy. But if he is more than that, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to find him, and we will have to use our secret forces as well."

Yao Xiu was giving a warning to Han Yuanjun. If they couldn't find Liang Jiahao within the allotted time and even after using all their resources, then it would be because the person was dead.. Yao Xiu gave a precaution because he wanted Han Yuanjun to be prepared and did not want to make Liang Zixuan sad.
