Mingyao had always thought that Huo Yan was just an author who wrote books, and did not know that his family background was so prominent.
When we were together, Huo Yan wasn't very particular about what he ate or wore. He wore a smart watch worth more than 2,000 yuan, and he didn't have any luxury goods.
The most important thing is that Huo Yan doesn't have the arrogance and superiority of the wealthy young men she has interacted with before.
The way he looks at everyone is very gentle, without any judgment, and occasionally has some innocent childishness, which is one of the reasons why Mingyao likes him.
Now that she learned about his family's company status and approximate assets from him, Mingyao was shocked.
She thought it was pure love, but now it seemed like she was coveting his family's property.
Mingyao waved her hands repeatedly: "The marriage I am talking about is not a marriage in the legal sense. There is no need to tell others. We just know it ourselves. There is no need to obtain a certificate..."
Huo Yan lowered his head pretending to be disappointed.
"Yao Yao, do you dislike that I don't have as many shares in the company as my eldest brother? I know that I'm not as capable as my eldest brother..."
Mingyao couldn't laugh or cry, "How dare I dislike you, Young Master Huo? Even if I work all my life, I can't compare to a fraction of your assets..."
Huo Yan sat on the sofa in the ward, gently held Mingyao's waist and let her sit on his lap.
Mingyao's body was stiff and she didn't dare to exert any force, so she put her feet on the ground to share some of her weight.
Huo Yan laughed angrily, "Baby, you are so light. Even if I am a cancer patient, I still have the strength to hold you. How about I carry you for a walk now..."
He tried to stand up with her in his arms, but Mingyao quickly refused and put her legs around his neck.
The two cuddled quietly for a while.
Huo Yan lowered his head and kissed the corner of Mingyao's lips.
"Yao Yao, please take me to meet your family..."
Mingyao thought for a while and nodded.
"Okay, let me tell my parents..."
The two of them had reached a consensus and no longer felt sad about his condition.
Cherish every minute and every second of the moment.
Even if the ending is destined to be separation.
Until then, you have to spend it with a smile.
Huo Yan lowered his eyes and looked quietly at the well-behaved Mingyao in his arms, gently combing her long hair with one hand.
For the first time, he felt grateful for his origin.
He usually doesn't care about money and has never used his privileges, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know the importance of money and power.
By concluding a legal relationship, he and Mingyao became a legal couple, so that even if he died, he would be able to leave her a fortune and ensure her peace for the rest of her life, so that she would not have to do things she didn't like and work too hard for worldly trivial matters. Running around.
He knew that Mingyao didn't think so much, she just simply wanted to be with him.
But he wanted to make more plans for her future while he was still healthy now.
And something more important to him...
Huo Yan's sharply knuckled hands gently rubbed Mingyao's waist. Mingyao felt itchy flesh and giggled. Huo Yan also smiled and kissed her forehead gently.
He wanted to leave some mark on his beloved girl before he died.
Call him selfish or domineering.
Even if she falls in love with someone else, remarries, and has children with someone else...
Nothing can be changed.
The fact that she was once his wife, Huo Yan.
The next day, Huo Yan and Mingyao took the high-speed train back to Mingyao's house.
Mingyao was worried about his health and stared at him all the way, as if he would faint at any time.
But for Huo Yan, the excitement of marrying Mingyao and the nervousness of meeting Mingyao's family can cover up any discomfort.
In fact, the time when he felt bad was not when he was sick, but when he was separated from her.
Today is the weekend.
Mingyao's parents felt uneasy after receiving the call from their daughter.
My daughter actually said that she would bring her boyfriend home today, and his boyfriend was her current pen pal.
According to their custom here.
Generally speaking, after meeting the parents, the next step is to discuss the wedding date and prepare for the wedding.
Although they knew that Mingyao and her pen pal had been in contact for a long time, they couldn't be liars.
But deciding to get married so quickly is worrying no matter how you think about it.
What's more, Mingyao had no relationship experience before and was not deeply involved in the world. They were worried that she would be deceived.
But when they opened the door and saw Huo Yan for the first time, they felt a little relieved.
At their age, they have already developed a certain eye for seeing people.
This young man's eyes are very clear, his behavior is generous and natural, not frivolous, and he is not a deep and treacherous person.
She has bright eyebrows and starry eyes, and a temperament as gentle as jade.
He is also quite tall, but he is a little thinner and his face is a little pale.
Mingyao's father is a state-owned enterprise engineer and her mother is a university teacher.
The two got married late and had a difficult time preparing for pregnancy. It was not easy for them to conceive a child.
They only have one daughter, Mingyao, who has held her like a jewel in their hands since she was a child. They only hope that she can live a good life.
"Uncle, I heard that you like drinking tea, so I brought you some Dahongpao."
"Auntie, I don't know what you like, but this is my opinion."
Mingyao's parents looked at each other as they looked at the expensive tea leaves sold by Lunke and the smooth and clear jade ornaments on the table.
It seemed that the young man had a good family background, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not that they love money, it's just that poor and humble couples are miserable. They don't want their daughter to be embarrassed by money when she gets married.
Marriage needs to be managed. If there is no money, there will be conflicts everywhere. No matter how deep the relationship is, it will be worn away by the trivial things in the world.
We had lunch at home. Mingyao’s mother, Wu Shuang, prepared a table of dishes. Although they were all home-cooked dishes, they were very rich.
After the meal, Mingyao went to the bathroom.
Huo Yan sat at the table, looked into the eyes of Mingyao's parents, paused, and spoke slowly.
"Uncle and aunt, maybe Mingyao didn't tell you clearly about my situation..."
It can be seen from the friendly attitude of Mingyao's parents towards him that Mingyao deliberately concealed his illness, but Huo Yan did not want to deceive others, especially Mingyao's family.
Huo Yan slowly told the true condition of his body.
Wu Shuang was shocked.
The eyes that originally looked at Huo Yan with satisfaction turned cold instantly.
No matter what you are looking for, other conditions are secondary, and good health comes first.
Why did he marry someone else when he was seriously ill?
Is it possible to let your daughter become a widow as soon as she gets married?
Mingyao returned to the living room and suddenly felt that the atmosphere was stiff and stagnant.
It was obviously fine just now.
Looking at Huo Yan, who was silent, and her mother, who was glaring at her angrily, she suddenly understood.
Huo Yan must have told him about his condition.
This fool.
She walked over and stood next to Huo Yan.
She loves her family and Huo Yan very much, and doesn't want any conflict between them.
Shi Hongjing didn't speak for a long time, his eyes silently looking at the young man and woman opposite.
He knew his daughter well. On the surface, they appear to be gentle and sensible, but in reality they tend to be stubborn and stubborn.
"Come to the study with me." Shi Hongjing motioned to Huo Yan.
Mingyao was a little nervous. Although her father loved her, he was usually very strict. Huo Yan squeezed Mingyao's hand gently, telling her not to worry, and followed Shi Hongjing into the study.
There are many photos of Mingyao as a child on the bookshelves in the study. There are certificates of awards on the wall, as well as trophies and medals that Mingyao has won from competitions he has participated in since he was a child.
Huo Yan's eyes were immediately attracted, and his eyes became soft and lingering.
If he could be braver and meet Mingyao earlier, they would have more time...
Shi Hongjing looked at Huo Yan with a scrutinizing gaze and spoke suddenly.
"When Yaoyao was in middle school, she transferred to another school because of my work. She couldn't adapt to the new environment and was ostracized by her classmates. She was introverted and sensitive. Over time, she suffered from depression. She had to suspend school and stay at home. Except for eating, she locked herself in her room every day. Reading inside..."
"Later I accidentally read your article and plucked up the courage to send you a letter. The day she received your reply, she was really happy. After that, she slowly came out of the negative emotions. I know, you He was a very special and important person to her.”
"Yao Yao is a simple-minded girl, especially when it comes to relationships. To put it nicely, she is desperate for love, but to put it worse, she is love-minded. As a father and a man, I hope you will not live up to such a sincere and warm heart. emotion!"
Shi Hongjing looked serious and said in a deep voice.
He never knew that Mingyao had suffered from depression, and she never mentioned it in her letters...
Huo Yan lowered his eyes, and a picture seemed to appear in his mind...
The young girl stayed alone in the small room, with the curtains drawn during the day. The room was dark, no one talked to her, and she didn't want to talk to others. She digested all her emotions silently... .
"I understand uncle's concerns. I can only promise you that Mingyao's name will be added to the Huo family's family trust fund list in the future. All my assets and insurance beneficiaries will be Mingyao. Even if I die, they will be It can guarantee her wealth and peace."
"Money is just a number to me. Mingyao's love is the thing I cherish most."
Huo Yan spoke calmly, and his eyes were as clear and tranquil as the sea.
Shi Hongjing was surprised by how calm and calm he was when he mentioned death.
He had seen his father die up close.
Even though he was over 70 years old, when he was about to die, his eyes were full of nostalgia and regret for the world, as well as fear and fear of death.
A young man in his twenties, in his prime, actually had such an open-minded view of death.
He couldn't help but think highly of Huo Yan's character.
Outside the house, Wu Shuang looked at his silent and stubborn daughter, and angrily raised his hand and hit her twice on the back.
"You damn girl, why are you so disobedient? Can mother still hurt you? Ah?"
"Mom...but, I..."
Mingyao choked up a little, bit her lip tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.
"I like him..."
Wu Shuang has been rational, independent, strong and capable since childhood.
I don’t know how I could have raised such an infatuated daughter.
But the mother and daughter were connected. Seeing her daughter sad, her nose began to feel sore and her eyes became hot.
Mingyao stepped forward and hugged her, snuggling into her arms, "Mom, I'm sorry..."
She knows that her parents are her greatest support. Because of her parents who love her, she dares to make choices regardless of the consequences.
"You...sigh...I'm afraid you will regret it in the future..."
Mingyao shook his head gently.
She understands her mother's concerns, but she is also willing to bear the consequences of her choices.
After the conversation, Mingyao sent Huo Yan to stay at the hotel.
Shi Hongjing and Wu Shuang looked at each other,
Wu Shuang frowned and said, "...What do you think?"
"What do I think... Of course I respect my daughter's thoughts." Shi Hongjing pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose.
Wu Shuang clenched his fists and raised his eyebrows: "Okay, you want me to be the villain who beats the mandarin ducks, right?"
She struck Shi Hongjing hard twice, and Shi Hongjing quickly dodged.
"If I regret it later, I won't open the door for her if she comes back crying!"
Wu Shuang gritted her teeth and put down her harsh words, returned to the bedroom, and slammed the door.
Shi Hongjing smiled and sighed, shaking his head slightly.
I know that she has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, but in her heart she loves her daughter more than anyone else.
It's just that parents can make life plans and guidance for their children, but they cannot forcefully interfere with her behavior.
Everyone has their own path to walk...
