Chapter 1490: Great to Have You (50)
The wedding proceeded smoothly. However, there was an uninvited guest, Yang Qianxue.
Needless to say, she did not give Mu Wansheng and Fan Shixin any red packets. She did try to create trouble for them, however.
To her dismay, she was denied entry at the door by the security guards who had performed their duties well. They refused to allow any uninvited guests to enter.
Peeved to be denied entry, Yang Qianxue stood by the door and threatened, “Sure, I’ll have no choice but to go to the reporters, then.”
The security guards had no choice but to inform Fan Shixin, who then came outside and said, “Don’t bother, let her be.”
Clearly, he had nothing better to say to his ex-wife. The security guard said coldly, “Like Chief Fan said, suit yourself. You may leave now.”
Yang Qianxue chuckled sarcastically and stormed off in a huff. She was overwhelmed with disgruntlement because she did not manage to create trouble for them.
The newlyweds did not allow the opinions of others to rain on their parade.
They only had eyes for each other. It was as if they had blocked out the audience and guests when they were hugging and kissing each other after the solemnization ceremony.
Life is full of obstacles, and one is bound to be stuck in a rut at one point or another. However, it’s crucial to remember that darkness is temporary and that the light will come eventually, regardless of how long the process might take. One should never give up before the turning point.
Staring at the man before her, Mu Wansheng smiled, filled with joy and bliss.
This was her man, Fan Shixin.

Jin Yiheng was already in first grade while Long Xiaoxi was still in kindergarten.
Long Xiaoxi did not feel the difference until Jin Yiheng enrolled in secondary school, whereas she, Jin Rongyan, and Ji Gui were still in primary school.
Hence, Jin Yiheng would only attend the boot camp during weekends and disappear during weekdays. There was nothing Long Xiaoxi could do, regardless of how distraught she was. She too wanted to do well in school and advance to secondary school. However, her lack of intellectual flair prevented her from doing so. She was just not cut out for academic excellence.
Ever since Jin Yiheng began attending secondary school, Long Xiaoxi would look forward to weekends the most.
Jin Yiheng remained more or less the same during the first year of secondary school. The greatest and most obvious changes occurred in his second year.
He stopped allowing Long Xiaoxi to sleep beside him in the dormitory of the boot camp during weekends and told her the difference between genders.
Despite being dumbstruck, Long Xiaoxi agreed.
In reality, she hid in the toilet and cried her heart out that day.
Ever since then, she began to find that Jin Yiheng was changing drastically.
He even stopped staying over at the boot camp on weekends and reduced the frequency of his visits.
Long Xiaoxi could tell that something was amiss. However, she did not know the reason behind his behavior. She did not find anything different about herself either.
Why did he change all of a sudden?
Long Xiaoxi finally realized that something major was amiss the moment she heard from her brother that Jin Yiheng had requested to cancel their engagement.
She decided to ask him about it and find out the underlying reason.
Long Xiaoxi remembered clearly that it was pouring heavily on the day that she visited Jin Yiheng’s home to look for him. He was in the midst of being punished by his father. Hence, she did not dare to enter and instead stood outside the door to eavesdrop.
She finally understood the reason he was getting punished.
Jin Yiheng had gotten into a relationship.
Jin Qingyan forced him to break up with his girlfriend and transferred him to another school.
Long Xiaoxi only had eyes for Jin Yiheng, and she used to think that it was the same for him. After all, she would watch the video of their engagement ceremony regularly.
She discovered that it was all just wishful thinking on her part.
When they met again, he told her bluntly that he did not feel anything special for her, perhaps because they knew each other too well since they used to be inseparable when they were children.
Long Xiaoxi hung her head low, feeling as if her dreams had been shattered. Her dreams of marrying him and giving birth to his children were now gone.
Later on, she did not attend the same secondary school as he did. Although they lived right opposite each other, they no longer met each other as frequently as they used to. In fact, they had even... grown distant from each other.
However, the engagement was still valid.
Both their parents were all very worried about them. However, Jin Yiheng dared not bring up his request for the engagement to be canceled ever since he received a punishment for it. Instead, he simply stopped talking to Long Xiaoxi and declined all her calls. He had even stopped seeing her.
Long Xiaoxi suffered a huge blow ever since he started giving her the cold shoulder.
She took the initiative to have the engagement canceled and even requested to pursue an education abroad. Long Tianze and Mei Yangyang agreed to her request. They initially suggested that she bring Ji Gui or Long Wenlun along with her. However, she turned down their suggestion calmly.
Hence, the engagement was canceled and An Xiaoning suggested that they keep the engagement gifts as a memento. However, Long Xiaoxi threw the gift that Jin Yiheng had given her into the rubbish bin instead. She then left.
Although Long Tianze felt that his daughter was acting rashly by throwing the jade piece away, he was incredibly upset because of how moody his precious daughter had been. She had also stopped eating her favorite desserts and was constantly in low spirits.
As much as An Xiaoning and Jin Qingyan wanted to give Jin Yiheng a severe beating, they decided to respect the children’s decision. After all, it concerned their lifelong happiness. Since they were both willing to cancel the engagement, the adults felt that they were in no place to interfere. Besides, they were still the godparents of Jin Yiheng and Long Xiaoxi, respectively.
