Chapter 584 - He Thought Wrong, and He Lost Her for Life (1/2)

“Okay.” Wu Yuan nodded, then carefully helped Gu Nansheng up from the bed. They had tied a red, festive scarf loosely around her neck, making her skin look even lighter.

Feng Tianlan took the red bridal veil that was passed to her and gently put it over Gu Nansheng’s head. Then, she bent her knees to carry Gu Nansheng on her back. She slightly tilted her head and whispered, “Nansheng, you’re not feeling that nervous now that I’ve done this, right?”

Wu Qi’s eyes reddened when he saw that. He finally succumbed to his grief and had to turn his back on the two, his shoulders shuddering in a silent cry.

Si Mobai stayed by the side of Feng Tianlan. Her body was still fragile, yet she needed to carry a person on her back. He was worried that she might stumble or fall, so he stayed by her side all the time to catch her immediately if she faltered.

However, Feng Tianlan pressed on, her every step as steady as it could be. Even when she descended the stairs, there was not a single tremble. She held on securely to Gu Nansheng on her back.

“In the past, the bride would be piggybacked to her bridal sedan by her elder brother or uncle. Why did it become my task when it was your turn to get married? In any case, I’m now part of your maiden home.”

“You’re getting married today. Do your junior sisters in the Yanyue Building know? If they don’t, they’ll surely chide you again, saying that you’re high and mighty but with a heart of gold.”

“Actually, I don’t have many friends. Apart from Yunzhu and Chuling, you’re the only other friend I have.”

“I don’t look stern all day long. Look, I even smiled today.”

“You’re a bride, and very soon the wife of another man. You shouldn’t say things like you’ll fall in love with me if I’m a man anymore.”

Feng Tianlan carried Gu Nansheng on her back as she spoke softly to her. There was a soft smile on her face, but spread under her eyes was iciness.

Wu Qi sobbed harder. He could see how much it resembled the times when Gu Nansheng was still alive. That was how Feng Tianlan and Gu Nansheng looked when they were together.

Upon exiting the inn, she saw the eight-man bridal sedan splashed in loud red stop right by the door. Feng Tianlan stood dazed for a moment, then turned to Wu Yuan and asked, “Why are you marrying Nansheng?”

Nansheng loved Wu Yuan, so even when she heard all those rumors, she still wanted to marry him. Feng Tianlan knew that this was not the right time to ask, but she still wanted an answer.
