Do You Want to Marry Me? Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Jin Nian looked like her, but her charm was also like her father’s. The husband and wife only had one precious daughter. They had raised her in their hands all these years. Jin Nian did not look like she was 25 or 26 years old. Tan Siyun kept complaining about the Jiang family, and everyone else lowered their heads and pretended not to hear her. Perhaps it was because Tan Siyun lived a carefree life and was considerate when she interacted with others, however, when she mentioned the Jiang family, she always seemed a little aggressive. Marriage was a matter between the two families. At this critical juncture, it was the best time for both families to see eye to eye with behaviors and values. Some families. .h.i.t it off immediately and regretted not meeting each other earlier. There were also many families who looked down on each other at this time and were very unhappy. A deep relations.h.i.+p or a shallow relations.h.i.+p would all depend.

An hour later, Jin Nian and her family arrived at the entrance of the Wanhe Huayuan. The cars following behind them were all her relatives. Tan Siyun glanced out of the window and complained: “Take a look for yourself. Their family doesn’t even come out to welcome guests. Do they need someone to teach them?”

Jin Chengwen patted her shoulder and comforted her, “Forget it, forget it. It’s a big day. Why are you saying this to make your daughter unhappy? It’s only a few steps inside.” It was indeed only a few steps from the hotel’s main entrance. The engagement party did not explicitly state that the groom’s family had to go out to welcome him. However, most sensible men would wait at the door, which was also a kind of attention and respect for the woman.

“Do I want to make my daughter unhappy?” Tan Siyun sighed. “Anyone with some manners would know what to do, right? Although you were like a blockhead back then, the etiquette that your family should have was not bad at all. Jiang Qingchi has been in society for so many years. Doesn’t he understand this?”

“Alright, Master of the family, the young ones probably don’t talk about this anymore.” Jin Chengwen said with a smile. “Don’t always expect others to do things according to your ideas. Isn’t it enough for me to listen to you?” Tan Siyun was so happy that the gloominess on her face disappeared.

Jin Nian was sitting next to him. She had to witness this lovey-dovey moment for no reason and almost vomited her breakfast. Qiao Ranran smiled and whispered into her ear, “Uncle and Auntie are still in their honeymoon period. Their relations.h.i.+p is so good.” Jin Nian agreed. A child’s first impression of marriage, without exception, came from their closest parents. Because her parents had a good relations.h.i.+p from the beginning to the end, Jin Nian also yearned for marriage.

After getting out of the car, Jin Nian walked carefully on the marble floor of the hotel in her unfitting high heels. Although there was a layer of band-aid on her heel, it still hurt. When they walked into the hall, they could see light pink b.u.t.terfly orchids everywhere. Accompanied by the faint fragrance of tea, it made people unconsciously relax their eyebrows. Jin Nian did not have time to appreciate it, but luckily the elevator was not far away.

The group of people walked to the elevator and waited. The laughter and chatter around them could be heard. It was a publicly acknowledged good day. The guests who came to the wedding banquet would whisper to each other from time to time. When they listened carefully, they were talking about the newlyweds who were getting married today. The yearning and expectations for marriage disappeared in this very down-to-earth environment. Even though the hotel’s decorations was warm and romantic, and the exquisite light ball above their heads was s.h.i.+ning, it was like a dream. However, the scene did not match it, and the sense of separation was serious.

Jin Nian comforted herself that she just had to endure it.

“Ding!” The elevator in the middle descended to the first floor and the elevator door opened. Jin Nian looked up subconsciously. The familiar yet unfamiliar figure was standing alone in the elevator. The golden light from the top of the elevator shone on him. The man looked down at the crowd, looking unapproachable. Their eyes met. His face was so dark that ink could drip off from it. It was like the cold wind in the winter mixed with ice shards. Jin Nian heard Tan Siyun’s surprised voice. “Oh, Lu An!” When the elevator door opened, the chattering outside instantly stopped. Everyone subconsciously looked into the elevator.

Lu An had never cared about other people’s gazes. On the contrary, when the others saw his dark and cold face, they inexplicably felt a little afraid. Ever since he was young, there was a magnetic field that kept strangers away, making it difficult for people to ignore. Now that he had such a tall body, the low pressure emitted by his body enveloped the entire elevator. Who knew which unlucky person had made this young master unhappy again? It was not until Tan Siyun’s surprised voice that Lu An raised his head to look at her. He smiled and called her Auntie. “When did you come back? Why aren’t you going to Auntie’s house for dinner?” Tan Siyun went up to Lu An with a face full of enthusiasm. Those who did not know better would think that he was the bridegroom to be today.
