Chapter 507 - Happily Ever After (1/2)

Ever since Jiang Guanyu contracted his cancer last year, Zhan Lian had chosen not to let go of her dignity and face. And when they sent Jiang Guanyu to the hospital to treat him, the cancer cells in his body had spread, so the doctor could only say that he would do his best to prolong his life.

Zhan Lian will never know about all this. Because of the choices she made, Jiang Ruolan meant to tell Jiang Guanyu about this and let him see what kind of woman he chose to live with for more than twenty-five years for the sake of money.

When he first entered the hospital, Jiang Guanyu asked the doctor to find a way to contact Jiang Ruolan. He wanted to see her and Zhou Qingling again. Jiang Ruolan didn't want him to disturb her mother's life again, so she went to see him alone.

That day, she saw Jiang Guanyu's helplessness, remorse, and many things that she couldn't be able to explain clearly. Jiang Guanyu kept saying he was sorry, sorry for ruining the mother and daughter's life, and he wanted to meet Zhou Qingling again.

He wanted to explain to her what had happened years ago. He wanted to explain that there were some things Zhou Qingling never knew about, and he wanted to explain them to her clearly.

Jiang Ruolan didn't give him a chance to explain himself. She just sat on the edge of the bed while feeding Jiang Guanyu the medicine the doctor had given him and said, ”It doesn't matter if you really had to do or if that's just the reason for you to ask for forgiveness. If you really feel sorry for her, if she still has a little place in your heart, then don't disturb her peaceful and happy life anymore. Let her not have anything related with you, let her be happier.”

On that day, Jiang Guanyu didn't say anything and just quietly drank the medicine. However, before Jiang Ruolan left, she saw the trace of regret in his eyes.

What's the use of it?

It's already too late.

Not all apologies can be exchanged with one sentence. Moreover, his so-called helplessness and regret were unable to redeem the youth of that woman he had hurt.

It was only then that Jiang Ruolan realized that life was really cruel. That the past was irreversible, and every step we took next, there was still one mystery after another. The only thing we could do was appreciate the happiness we could grasp in front of us.

The wedding that Xian Zihao had owed to Jiang Ruolan all this time was finally held.

That day in late summer, in the middle of an ocean of flowers around Lijiang and Shangri-La, Jiang Ruolan was wearing a snow-white wedding dress. Her light gown filled with layers upon layers of bows, and it was said that this butterfly bow was something that a mother should have on her wedding dress.

On that day, Jiang Ruolan's beauty was like a fairy descending from heaven. The hand of the stylist specially hired by the Xian Family seemed to have a magical touch, giving Jiang Ruolan a glorious and beautiful appearance. Standing in the middle of the ocean of flowers, her beauty was truly stunning.

On the left side, on the big screen, the artist told a short story about Xian Zihao and Jiang Ruolan in the form of a sand painting.

Xian Zihao's tall figure can be spotted easily among the crowd.

Because the Old Man had been through so many things these past years, he began to accept Jiang Ruolan and Jiang Yijun's inseparable sibling relationship.

Jiang Ruolan was slowly led by Zhou Qingling and Jiang Yijun. She slowly walked through the ocean of flowers towards the man in the white suit.

”Where are Chiahao and An Na?” As Jiang Ruolan walked forward, she remembered that she had not seen the two children in a long time. She immediately turned and looked at Zhou Qingling and Jiang Yijun.

At this time, in the aisle on both sides of the crowd, Xian Chiahao, who was dressed in a black children's suit with a pink bow tied around his neck and Xian An Na, who wore a beautiful pink princess dress appeared. They both were holding a bouquet of red roses as they waited for her.

”Mommy.” Xian Chiahao immediately stood in front of Jiang Ruolan with Xian An Na, giving her the bouquet of roses.

Jiang Ruolan immediately understood why Xian Zihao took so long to prepare for this wedding. This was a wish she had once made, she had said that a wedding was not necessary, as long as their marriage was happy forever. If there really was a wedding, she wished that her children could be a flower boys and flower girl.

A year ago, Xian Chiahao and Xian An Na were just three years old. Although they were very smart children, they may not be able to work well with wedding arrangements. Now, four years old Xian Chiahao and Xian An Na were standing in front of her eyes.

Jiang Ruolan smiled knowingly, bent down, took the rose handed to her. She then kissed the faces of the two children and whispered in their ears, ”Mommy loves you.”

”We love mommy too!” Xian Chiahao and Xian An Na also kissed each of her cheeks with a smile before they were pulled slowly to the side by Zhan An, who had walked closer.

Finally, the two children were arranged to stand on either side of her, accompanying her in the direction of the man in the crowd.

Jiang Ruolan smiled sweetly, her eyes full of happiness. When her hand was placed gently on his, she felt the warmth of his palms and the firmness of his emotions.

Xian Zihao hugged her tightly before pulling her to his side until they stood side by side in silent understanding.

The sand painting on the big screen continued to play, but the melodious music changed into a more pleasant tune at the same time.

Xian Zihao was looking at Jiang Ruolan with a smile. Before the ceremony started, Bai Jing walked over and joked, ”President Xian, how many years do you have to go through before you finally manage to get the beautiful Miss Jiang?”

Xian Zihao sighed and laughed. ”It's not easy.” He raised her hand, put it to his lips, and kissed it lightly. ”Am I right, wifey?”
