Chapter 1778: Chapter 1778: No Regrets
"Sister-in-law, you at least need to tell me whether you prefer a Chinese or Western style, or a blend of both?"
"Actually, I donât know. Dan Dan, you have more experience, just go with your ideas. It doesnât need to be too grand, something simple will do," Liao Xinyue said softly, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes.
"Oh! Then I understand, sister-in-law, just rest assured! Leave it to me," Jian Dan said, noticing the sadness in Liao Xinyueâs eyes and chose not to pursue it further.
"Alright, Iâm going to help Granny make dinner," Liao Xinyue said with a smile as she walked into the kitchen.
Jian Dan watched Liao Xinyueâs back and fell into deep thought.
"Jian Jian, what are you thinking about?" Chu Liyuan walked up behind Jian Dan and hugged her from behind.
"Iâm thinking!"
"Thinking? Thinking about what?"
"I feel like whenever the wedding is mentioned, sister-in-law doesnât seem very happy. Does she not want to marry my brother?" Jian Dan asked curiously, furrowing her brows slightly.
"Of course, she likes him, but..."
"But what?" Jian Dan got a bit excited, her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at Chu Liyuan.
Chu Liyuan smirked, "Jian Jian, do you know how long itâs been since you looked at me with that kind of gaze?"
"Uncle, what are you talking about? Iâm being serious!" Jian Danâs cheeks turned red as she lightly punched Chu Liyuanâs chest.
"Jian Jian, want to know the reason? If you kiss me, Iâll tell you," he said, leaning his cheek closer to Jian Dan.
Jian Danâs lips curved into a slight smile. She pouted her lips, stood on tiptoe, and slowly leaned towards Chu Liyuanâs cheek. Just as she was about to touch it, Chu Liyuan suddenly changed direction, and Jian Danâs lips landed on his.
"Uncle, you did that on purpose!" Jian Dan pouted as she looked at Chu Liyuan.
"I did do it on purpose. Jian Jian, have you forgotten how long itâs been since you kissed me on your own? While youâre worrying about others, you canât forget about your husband!"
"How could I?" Jian Dan explained anxiously, "How could I possibly forget about you, Uncle?"
"Really? I donât know who it was before that forgot about me, claiming to be someone elseâs fiancĂ©e," Chu Liyuan teased, bringing up old stories childishly.
"Uncle, why are you bringing up old stories? That was so long ago, and it wasnât even my fault," Jian Dan said a bit aggrieved.
"No choice, to prevent such things from happening again, I can only occasionally remind our little Jian Jian by bringing up old stories."
"Uncle, youâre really getting more childlike," Jian Dan remarked.
"Isnât it just right, so that when competing for affection with the kids, I have a better chance!" How even his way of acting coy was so charming, Chu Liyuan thought.
Jian Dan almost got lost in it, but luckily, her rationality pulled her back from the depths of Chu Liyuanâs charm.
"Uncle, quickly tell me, whatâs the reason?"
"Jian Jian, think about whatâs the first part of a wedding ceremony?" Chu Liyuan smiled, wrapping his hands around Jian Danâs waist and speaking gently.
"The first part?" Jian Danâs eyes kept turning as she thought.
"Iâve got it, itâs..."
"Now do you know?"
Jian Dan nodded in sudden realization.
"But sister-in-lawâs parents passed away when she was very young. Now, even her only family member is imprisoned, unable to attend her wedding," Jian Dan finally understood why Liao Xinyue was not that excited about the wedding. A wedding without any family member was indeed a huge regret.
"You can ask Xiaokai about this, maybe he can help you!" Chu Liyuan said with a smile.
"Xiaokai? Really? Iâll go ask him now." With that, Jian Dan took off running.
