Sweet Wedding and Pampering Love - C119

March 31st, 11 PM.

After Mingxue returned home from her evening study, she sat at her desk and prepared for the birthday feast tomorrow without even blowing on her hair.

She didn’t need to worry about Party’s arrangement. Two days ago, Gu Zi asked her if she had seen a picture of the plan. It was very beautiful, but also very warm. She only needed to prepare the things she needed for the cruise ship.

Ming Xue Mo opened the drawer and took out a stack of purple-colored heart-shaped note paper. She then took out a piece of paper and carefully wrote a row of delicate yet vigorous words on it — “I like you.” This was the first time she had used this brush. If it wasn’t such an important moment, she wouldn’t have been able to bear to use it.

After she finished writing, she quietly waited for the ink to dry. After making sure that the handwriting would not be scratched, she slowly rolled up the piece of paper that carried her heart and tied it up with the same color thread.

Finally, she took out a delicate, corked bottle that had been lying on her desk since the day she decided to make her confession. She removed the cork, put her mind into the bottle, tightly stuffed it back into place.

Mingxue Mo folded her hands on the table, staring at the bottle with anticipation. Her plan was to ask Guizi to row the boat tomorrow, and when he wasn’t paying attention, she would pretend that she didn’t notice, and ask him to pick it up like a floating bottle. When he opened the bottle, he would see her intentions.

Ming Xue Mo was still very nervous. Although she knew that he treated her very well, she wasn’t sure if he treated her well because he liked her too. If she wasn’t too sure, she wouldn’t have to wait until tomorrow to decide the worst case scenario. When she thought of the reaction she might have tomorrow, especially the moment when Gu Zi asked her to open the note, she felt both excited and nervous at the same time.

However, even though his heart was filled with anticipation and excitement, he still had to sleep. Otherwise, if he were to embarrass Big Brother Gu tomorrow with his large bags under his eyes and black circles under his eyes, what should he do?

Mingxue went back to the bathroom to blow-dry her hair. When she was blowing her hair, she remembered the day of the final exam. When Gu Zi asked how she had blown her hair, she couldn’t help but let out the most heartfelt and moving smile.

Her hair was dry, but Ming Xue Mo wasn’t sleepy at all, so she picked out the clothes she needed to wear tomorrow. After wandering back and forth in the cloakroom for more than half an hour, she finally chose a long dress with lotus leaves that had turned from white to light purple. She prepared to wear a pair of white sandals for this dress, and when she went to get her shoes, she saw the pair of fluffy slippers that she had worn back from her new home.

Ming Xue Mo took out the slippers and changed out of the pair on her feet. Accompanied by the many beautiful memories he had created for her, Ming Xue Mei beautiful entered the land of dreams.

After washing up, she wore a cute pink housedress with two bunny ears. She had made an appointment with Gouzi, and at three o’clock they went out for a boat ride in the lake, and when it was over, they would go to the bar on Peak Road to have fun with Party. She planned to change into her carefully chosen skirt and shoes in the afternoon.

She was still wearing the same slippers that had witnessed her experience with him. Momo had just placed her hand on the doorknob when she heard a noise coming from downstairs. She opened the door and stood at the foot of the stairs with her hands on the railing, looking down. Her parents, whom she had not seen for more than a year, were back.

Ming Xue Mo’s feet didn’t move, but her heart was uncontrollably agitated. Why did they come back at this time? Yes… For her birthday?

She didn’t even dare to approach them. Her parents had been away from home for too long, so long that she felt they were unfamiliar, so long that she seemed to need a lot of courage to even walk towards them. She just stood by the railing and quietly observed them.

There was exhaustion that could be seen on the faces of Mingli and Dai Weiping. Compared to the overjoyed faces of Aunt Yun and Uncle Zhong, there was not much joy in returning home, only exhaustion … Uncle Zhong and Aunt Yun carried their luggage from the outside into the living room. There were four suitcases in total, but they didn’t have much time. They didn’t know how many days they were planning to stay this time.

In the end, Dai Weeping was the first to notice Momo standing on the second floor, calmly watching them. She called out to her, “Momo —” She seemed to be a little warmer than the voice she had heard on the phone, but she didn’t feel any intimacy or excitement from seeing her again. Even though she was right in front of her, she still made Momo feel as if her voice was coming from the distance, so distant that it was completely unreal. She couldn’t help but rub her eyes. She wondered if she was imagining things. Perhaps Uncle Zhong and Aunt Yun were the only ones in the living room. Her parents were just her imagination.

Only when Mingli pushed his glasses up on his nose and looked up at her, did he say: “Momo, when you saw Mom and Dad coming back, you didn’t know you were coming down to greet us. Where’s your etiquette?”

His voice had a calligraphic quality to it, a bit like a teacher’s. Mingmei wasn’t afraid of any teacher, but she was always inexplicably fearful of her father. She didn’t know why she was afraid of him. She clearly resented them, but in the face of such strong emotions, everything else should have been suppressed, and she wouldn’t have felt that way when she answered his phone. However, every time she saw him, she was always afraid of him.

Ming Xue Mo finally slowly came down from the stairs and obediently stood in front of them. She meekly called out, “Father, Mother —”

Dai Weeping told Uncle Zhong to bring one of the four suitcases they brought back and place it on the floor next to the tea table. She opened the box and took out a beautiful box.

Ming Xue Mo received it in a slightly dazed manner. They … Did he really come back for her birthday?

“Thank you, mother.” She nodded her head politely in thanks.

The corner of Dai Weiping’s mouth slightly twitched as she said, “No need to thank me. Your father paid for it.”

Ming Xue Mo was even more shocked, her mother would actually say such witty words in front of her? Then he gave a slight bow to the gift and said, “Thank you, father.”

Ming Li raised his hand: “You’re welcome. This is what you deserve.” Your mother and I will go upstairs to take a bath, change clothes, and take a rest. After lunch, we will go together to visit Grandfather in the afternoon. ”

“Can we go see grandpa in the morning?”

Although he didn’t say a single word, she could clearly feel that he was reprimanding her, “Your mother and I have been on the plane for so long and have just arrived home. You don’t know how to appreciate our efforts, but where have you gone to be filial?”

Compared to the direct dissatisfaction shown by the ceremony, Dai Weiping was much more composed. She thought to herself that Mingxue had always been obedient to them and had almost never expressed her opinion. There must be a reason for this rare objection.

“Do you have any activities this afternoon?” she asked.

Ming Xue Mo muttered to herself for a while before nodding lightly. She whispered, “Yes, we have a friend.”

Dai Weeping’s gaze was wandering all over Ming Xue Mo as she asked, “Boyfriend or girlfriend?”

Ming Xue Mo was scared by her torch-like gaze, she honestly called out, “Male friend.” In front of them, she was still not bold enough to brazenly lie.

“Which male friend?”

Her voice also gradually became harsh. She thought that she should spend all her time studying, rather than getting to know those heterosexual men!

Ming Xue Mo was silent this time. If this topic went any further, they would definitely quarrel, and she had not seen her parents for so long, so she did not want to quarrel as soon as they met.

However, this was not because she did not want to argue. Just because she did not say anything did not mean that Dai Weiping would stop too. On the contrary, her silence made Dai Weeping keenly aware of the clues. She stared at her keenly and asked sharply, “Is it the family that you went to be a tutor?”

Ming Xue Mo remained silent.

Dai Weiping accepted it as her consent.

“Xue Mo!” Her voice instantly went up eight times, and she even curled her finger to knock on the tea table a few times, “What the hell do you think? Today is your birthday. You should have asked three or five classmates and friends out to celebrate. However, your friends can never include those who are unclear about the situation, and even more so, they can’t be men who have families and children! ”

“Tell me,” she said aggressively while pointing at Mingxue who had been frightened by her yell. “Are you still tutoring in their house?”

Ming Xue Mo’s hands trembled as she held the gift. She couldn’t understand why they suddenly came back, nor could she understand why they couldn’t wait for her to happily finish today before settling the score with her. Why did they have to ruin her yearning for happiness?

She really wanted to retort, “Have you guys thought about why I want to be someone else’s tutor? Even Aunt Yun can see why I am rebelling, but you, who are my parents, can’t? ”

But she said nothing. Just like for the past decade, she had swallowed all of her sadness and worry down her throat and hid it deep in her heart. She continued to be the proud and lonely Ming Xue Mo, who would never beg for her family’s love.

Of course, although she pretended to be very powerful and didn’t need anyone’s pity, her bright eyes still had a hint of heartbreak. However, Dai Weiping didn’t see it, and only scolded her, “You think I can’t do anything to you if you don’t speak?”

“Xiao Yun!” Dai Weeping shouted in the direction of the kitchen.

Aunt Yun didn’t even have time to take off her apron before she hurriedly ran over and stood obediently in front of Dai Weeping and Mingli.

However, it was unable to quell the anger in Dai Weiping’s heart. She slammed the tea table, making the decorative cloth flowers jump. “Do you think Miss still has a tutoring job outside?”

Auntie Yun lowered her head, unwilling to betray Momo and afraid to lie to Dai Weiping. She could only pick up words that didn’t add fuel to the fire, “Madam, don’t be angry yet. It’s Miss’s birthday …”

Before she could finish her sentence, Dai Weiping rudely interrupted her, “Are you trying to teach me what to do? Have you forgotten the rules when you and I haven’t been home for so long? Or is it that when we’re not here, you think of yourself as the owner of this house? ”

“Madam …” Aunt Yun looked terrified. “I definitely didn’t think that way. Please understand, I don’t dare to say anything about him.”

She didn’t know what else to say, so she was scolded because she was implicated. Mingxue couldn’t bear to see her diligently work, but she didn’t get a shred of respect, so she picked up the box in her hand and bravely raised her head, fearlessly saying, “Mom, you don’t have to force Aunt Yun. I’ll tell you everything, you’re right. My male friend from this afternoon is the father of the student I taught, I’m still tutoring him at home, what else do you want to know?”

“Xue Moyan —” Dai Weeping looked at her with eyes full of disbelief and incomprehension. “You actually went as far as to degrade yourself to this extent, and you still want to offend me for a servant? Are you crazy?”

Mingxue looked at her calmly, “I’m very awake, very awake all this time. I know what I’m doing, and I’m responsible for my own actions.”

Dai Weeping’s expression turned to despair, as if Ming Xue Mo was completely bewitched and hopeless. She wanted to imitate her attitude towards Aunt Yun and smack the table angrily again, but remembering that they had reunited with Ming Xue Mo and it was her birthday, she restrained herself and let out a long breath before saying heavily, “You are ruining your own future!”

If the person standing in front of her right now was someone else, not her mother, not the mother that everyone liked to talk about, she really wanted to say something back to her — “Don’t say anything more than half a sentence.” But seeing how angry Dai Weiping was, she did not want to anger her again. No matter how different their thoughts were, she had not seen her for a long time …

The atmosphere in the living room was stiff and awkward. Dai Weiping was about to say something, but she was stopped by Mingyue Mingyue, who gave her a look to stop it, and instead said to Mingxue, “Momo, go upstairs first. Without my permission, you are not allowed to leave the room.”

A look of disbelief appeared in Mingxue’s lowered eyes. Was her father going to keep her grounded? How could she understand his actions? Was it a deep love, a sense of responsibility, or was it a direct, violent suppression without persuading her?

She wanted to say four words to him now — “That’s enough.”
