"May you grow old together, have a harmonious union for a hundred years, and bear children early." Xu Nianhua's words of blessing felt like daggers piercing Gu Mingzhu's heart.
Yet Gu Mingzhu had to pretend to be perfectly happy.
When Xu Nianhua bid farewell to Gu Mingzhu, she watched the backs of Gu Mingzhu and Jin Chun, filled with emotion.
She continued to the mall to browse, buying a pair of comfortable shoes for each of her parents. Su Dad and Su Mom were not short on money, so she chose tea that Su Dad loved and scarves Su Mom fancied, as well as practical gifts for her brother and nephew that weren't easily available back in the county.
Leaving the mall, she wondered if she had neglected to check the calendar today because she instinctively stepped aside upon seeing Gu Hai.
"Nianhua."
Gu Hai evidently spotted Xu Nianhua and quickly stepped forward to block her path.
Xu Nianhua had no choice but to stop.
