102: Side Story 2: Jiang He & Xie Huai'an

Three months after Jiang Li's wedding,

Jiang He was off duty today and returned to her flat.

Jiang Li had bought this flat for her after she started working; she usually stayed here when she was exhausted from work.

As soon as she entered the house, she found someone on the sofa.

"Huaian, why did you come over today? Didn't you say you had a business trip for a collaboration recently?"

Hearing her, Xie Huaian stood up and stepped forward to hug his girlfriend.

"He He, you're off for these two days, can you spend some time with me? Let's go to Hainan this time. Didn't you say you wanted to go there before?"

In the end, Jiang He really couldn't resist her boyfriend's acting spoiled, so she agreed.

In the evening, she also made a video call to tell her parents, Jiang Li, and the others.

What she didn't know was that Jiang Li and the others had already arrived in Dali long ago!

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Li looked at her parents and Fu Xiangqi, who had just returned from the bathroom.

"Hubby, are you feeling better?"

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Looking at Fu Xiangqi's pale face, Jiang Li found those words somewhat... hard to believe.

"Hubby, you should rest for a bit first."

"Okay."

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang saw that their daughter was fine, but this son-in-law... it was a bit difficult.

"Well, Lili, your father and I will go check out the proposal venue first."

"Okay. Oh, by the way, Mom and Dad, Xie Huaian's parents are also there. Go over and say hello." Jiang Li said while taking care of Fu Xiangqi after hearing her parents' words.

"Okay, we got it."

...Jiang He followed behind Xie Huaian and boarded the plane together.

"He He, rest for a while. I'll call you when we arrive."

"Okay."

Jiang He had finished packing quite late yesterday and was feeling rather sleepy now.

Xie Huaian looked at his girlfriend, feeling an indescribable excitement and nervousness as he thought about what was about to happen.

After the plane landed, Jiang He walked ahead leisurely.

Xie Huaian was communicating on his phone.

"Huaian, has the car arrived?"

Jiang He's voice reached Xie Huaian's ears, and he hurriedly put his phone away.

"We're driving there ourselves. The car has already been arranged; it's in the parking lot."

"Okay."

The car in the airport parking lot had been arranged by Jiang Li and the others.

After Xie Huaian drove to the destination, Jiang He looked at the hotel here and felt it was very nice.

"Huaian, this place is great, it even has the ocean."

"Yeah, the room I booked is over in the villa area."

"Okay, let's go!"

A security guard came over, and after handing the car keys to him, the two of them walked in together.

There were dedicated staff members to deliver their suitcases.

When they reached the villa entrance, Jiang He felt something wasn't quite right.

"Huaian, are you sure this is it? Why are there people inside!"

"Impossible, the company people booked it; there can't be a mistake. I'll go ask."

"Hey..."

Jiang He wanted to say they should go together, but Xie Huaian had already run inside.

After waiting for about five minutes, Jiang He really couldn't rest easy, so she went in.

As a result, before she had even taken two steps, she heard a sound.

Immediately following that, music began to play.

Jiang He thought to herself that she couldn't have walked into the wrong place, could she? This couldn't be someone else's proposal venue, right? After all, the decorations inside were so exquisite.

She wanted to leave, but in the next second, she saw Xie Huaian, who had changed his clothes, walking toward her.

He walked toward her holding a bouquet of white roses.

"He He, I'm sorry for being so hasty today. This is the proposal venue I've been thinking about for a long time. You said before that you like the sea, the blue sky, and white clouds. This is the place closest to the blue sky, white clouds, and the ocean, so I wanted to leave the most beautiful memories with you here. He He, will you marry me?"

At this moment, Jiang Li, Fu Xiangqi, Jiang Yan, Mo Jinnan, Father and Mother Jiang, and Father and Mother Xie all appeared from both sides.

Seeing this, how could Jiang He not understand? It turned out she was the only one who didn't know.

But at the same time, she was glad she had put on some makeup in the car.

Jiang He looked at the man kneeling on one knee before her; he had remembered her casual words until now.

Accepting the flowers, she looked at him and said, "Huaian, I like it here very much, and I also hope to leave memories belonging to the two of us here. So, I do!"

Hearing this, Xie Huaian was extremely excited and hurriedly took out the ring to put it on Jiang He.

Then he stood up and hugged his beloved.

With eyes full of joy, he looked at the person before him and kissed those mouth-watering lips.

Jiang He also placed her hands on Xie Huaian's waist and responded.

Jiang Li and everyone else were also very happy to see this... When Jiang Li gave birth, everyone was extremely nervous because of a major hemorrhage.

They only completely relaxed once she woke up.

Seeing this scene, Jiang He and Xie Huaian were thinking about something.

Xie Huaian seemed to see Jiang He's nervousness and hugged her. "He He, don't worry anymore. Didn't the doctor say that Big Sister is already fine?"

"Yeah, Big Sister really suffered this time."

Xie Huaian was thinking about whether he should get a vasectomy, but it would be better to communicate with He He about this matter first.

About a year later,

Jiang He and Xie Huaian held their wedding.

It was held at the largest hotel in the Shanghai.

Jiang He got up at three in the morning to do her makeup.

Jiang Li and Jiang Yan had been accompanying her.

Jiang He was drowsy and was being pulled along to have her makeup done.

Jiang Nan had gotten up early, changed his clothes, and was communicating with the people here.

After all, there was still the bridal pickup segment later, where the younger brother would carry the bride out on his back.

After finishing the first morning gown look, they started taking photos.

There were also two bridesmaids, who were Jiang He's good friends.

After the photos, it was time for the Xiuhe suit makeup and styling.

Then there was another round of photography.

Jiang Yan and the others also followed along and took many photos.

There was also a photographer who kept filming.

Soon, it was eight o'clock.

The groom, Xie Huaian, arrived, followed by two best men.

The bridesmaids blocked the door for about five or six minutes.

They had already collected over a hundred red envelopes in their hands.

When the wedding was over and the bridesmaids opened the red envelopes, they were shocked to find they were all hundred-yuan bills, and there were even ten-thousand-yuan checks inside.

The bridal pickup games were played for a while, and then it was time to serve tea to the bride's parents and change the way they addressed them.

At the hotel room, they also served tea to the groom's parents and changed the way they addressed them.

Then it was time to change into the main wedding dress.

Because the theme was the hotel's style, the wedding dress chosen was an off-the-shoulder gown with a large train, covered in tiny diamonds that sparkled brilliantly under the lights.

At the host's call, the groom made his entrance, followed by the bride.

The groom welcomed his bride and declared their vows.

Then they entered the hall of marriage, drank the nuptial cup, and exchanged rings.

They poured wine into the arranged glasses, and the wedding officially came to a perfect conclusion.

After that was the toasting.

The two spent a very harmonious wedding night.

When Jiang He woke up the next afternoon, she didn't see her husband.

When she finally saw Xie Huaian, her eyes were equally full of resentment... A year later,

Jiang He became pregnant. Upon hearing the news, Xie Huaian immediately abandoned his work and came to Ankang Hospital.

He saw his wife sitting on the sofa in the dean's office, looking very happy.

"Wife, I'm sorry."

Jiang He was confused. "What's wrong? Do you not like children?"

She remembered that every time he saw her sister's children, Zhiheng and Yaoyao, he was very happy!

"Wife, it was too scary when your big sister gave birth, so I'm also afraid..."

Jiang He finally knew what her husband was worried about. "Hubby, don't worry, I'll take care of everything. Do you not believe me?"

"I believe my wife."

"Mhm, that's good. Do you think the child in my belly is a boy or a girl?"

"A girl who looks just like my wife would be best."

"You forgot, Yaoyao from my sister's family looks like her father!"

"It seems you're right. Let's have a son then!"

"We can't tell yet, but hubby, you can start thinking of names now!"

"Okay, I'll look for some when I get back."

Xie Huaian crouched on the ground, his ear pressed against Jiang He's belly. "Son, you have to be good and not trouble your mother! Do you hear me!"

Sitting on the sofa, Jiang He looked at the head near her belly and couldn't help but laugh.

"They're still small, they can't hear you."

But Xie Huaian didn't care and kept talking.

"Wife, what do you think about the name Xie Jinyou if it's a boy? For a girl, I'll think about it carefully when we get back."

Jiang Yan heard this and said, "Okay."

The sunlight shone on the two of them, feeling warm.
