Chapter 1921: True Love, A Silent Confession 2

~8 min read 1,435 words

As if telling a secret, she said to the two of them: "You two don't know yet, but actually, your parents have long regretted breaking you two up in the early years; they no longer oppose you being together now..."

"I originally wanted to see you get married and have children in my lifetime, but it seems that won't be possible now. Promise me, will you be together?"

Wang Yinghao was not being unreasonable, because the two of them were already in love.

But she was also being unreasonable, because what stood before the two of them now was not parental opposition, but a much more difficult, more insurmountable chasm!

"Grandma, we promise you."

Qi Shishi was the first to nod in agreement.

Zirui also nodded in agreement: "We will be together, and we will be happy and fulfilled for a lifetime, just as happy as you and Grandpa, and Mom and Dad."

Whether they could do it or not, they would promise first; they couldn't let Grandma leave without peace of mind in her final moments.

Wang Yinghao smiled and closed her eyes.

She let go of the hands she was holding!

"Grandma?"

"Grandma."

The two began to call out softly, but soon they were calling out loudly, only Grandma would never respond to them affectionately again.

Soon, everyone rushed in and burst into loud sobs.

Sheng Jiang sat on the chair, motionless, his expression not even changing; he looked at his wife with deep affection, maintaining the same posture throughout.

When everyone realized something was wrong, Sheng Hanyu placed his finger under his father's nose and discovered that his father had already stopped breathing.

——————————————————————————————

The funeral of the elderly couple, Sheng Jiang and his wife, caused a sensation throughout Jiangzhou.

It was not because they were the parents of the richest man, but because of the earth-shattering love story between them.

Not seeking to be born on the same day of the same month, but seeking to die on the same day of the same month.

From ancient times to the present, this has been people's most solemn yearning for friendship or love, and they achieved it.

This matter was uploaded to the internet by a hospital nurse, receiving a very high click rate and harvesting countless tears.

Besides family, relatives, friends, and business partners, many strangers spontaneously went to offer incense and flowers at the funeral of the elderly couple, Sheng Jiang and his wife.

After the funeral ended, everyone returned from the cemetery, and Qi Shishi said goodbye to everyone and took Qi Sheng back.

They should have left long ago, but because of the passing of Wang Yinghao and Sheng Jiang, they were delayed in Jiangzhou for a few more days!

"Thank you, Shishi." Shi Youxuan thanked her sincerely.

"You don't need to thank me; this is all what I should do. Compared to everything you have done for our family, what I have done for you is only a little bit, and it is far from enough."

These were her heartfelt words, without a shred of falsehood or polite formality.

Because Grandpa and Grandma passed away, Yuanyuan didn't even have a honeymoon after getting married, nor did she have the three-day return visit to her parents' home.

The Tian family were reasonable people, and her parents didn't mind, but Shi Youxuan still felt that her young daughter-in-law had been wronged.

Once the house calmed down, she prepared many gifts and had Zihan's family of four take the children to visit.

Although the three-day return visit date had long passed, the missed gifts still had to be made up!

The young couple took the children back for the visit, and Mother Tian pulled her daughter into the room for a private chat; she first asked her daughter how she was doing at her in-laws', and whether she could get along with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

This was also what Mother Tian was most worried about.

Although everything looked good before the marriage, in many families, things were one way before marriage, and the in-laws changed their faces after marriage.

The strength of their family and the Sheng Family was too vastly different, which was also the main reason why the Tian parents insisted on not wanting a dowry.

Although their family's economic conditions could not compare to the Sheng Family, they also loved their child just the same and would not let their child feel inferior at her in-laws'.

Yuanyuan smiled and said: "Mom, don't worry. The in-laws treat me quite well. Mother-in-law is a very sensible person. Father-in-law doesn't talk much, but he dotes on Qiqi and Wenwen like the apples of his eyes, yet he won't unconditionally spoil or indulge them. In terms of educating the children, it's still up to me, and they listen to me."

"Sister-in-law is even easier to get along with; she is very simple-minded and very kind..."

Mother Tian listened to what her daughter said and became happier and happier.

After worrying for several days, she could finally rest easy now.

"That's very good. You must not stir up trouble at your in-laws' just because everyone is easy to talk to. A family should get along well, and in all things, you should take a step back..."

"Don't worry, Mom. How could a daughter raised by you bully others?"

"Mother-in-law was afraid that we wouldn't get along, so she even bought houses for each of our families, which are currently being renovated and furnished. On the surface, she said that everyone was tired of living together and should go out and live for a few days, but in reality, she was just afraid that we wouldn't get along and wanted us to have a fallback at any time."

When Mother Tian saw that her daughter's mother-in-law had considered things so thoughtfully, she had even fewer things to worry about.

Zihan and his father-in-law were cooking in the kitchen, and before long, the son-in-law and father-in-law had prepared a large table of food, and the whole family sat around the table.

Qiqi and Wenwen hugged their grandmother and grandfather's necks and acted spoiled, saying they missed them very much.

They also said that at home, Grandpa and Grandma often praised their grandmother and grandfather for raising them not being easy, and for raising such a sensible mother.

The two elderly people were overjoyed; the few words from their grandson made Mother Tian completely relieved. It seemed her daughter was indeed not lying, and life in the Sheng Family was comfortable.

Adults can lie, but children cannot.

——————————————————————————————

Half a year later.

2:30 AM.

"Ring, ring..."

Sheng Hanyu's phone rang. Who would call at this hour?

He grabbed the phone in displeasure, and upon seeing it was Wang Yong's number, his sleepiness vanished instantly.

For Wang Yong to call him at this hour, something very urgent must have happened.

"A Yong, what happened?"

"Big, Big Brother, big news, earth-shattering big news!"

Wang Yong was now the Military Region Commander of L Country and a man who had seen the world; for him to be so excited that he was incoherent, it must be something extraordinary.

"Take your time and speak."

He draped his coat over his shoulders and sat up, preparing to go to another room to take the call so as not to disturb his wife.

But at this moment, his arm was tugged, and Shi Youxuan whispered, "No need to leave; no matter what happens, we will face it together."

He nodded slightly and did not leave.

Wang Yong did not know what his older brother and sister-in-law were thinking at this moment.

He was still very excited and chattered on incessantly: "Big Brother, you have no idea how much of an impact this matter has had on L Country. My god, after the news broke! Now all the common people in the country are discussing this matter; no one is sleeping at night at all, and the national electricity consumption has even risen quite a bit..."

"Are you finished yet? Get to the point, what exactly is the matter?"

Wang Yong was scolded, and only then did he chuckle: "Don't be so impatient. I was just laying the groundwork so you could feel my excitement."

Sheng Hanyu:...

But Sheng Hanyu was not the type to be long-winded, and his patience was limited. He said to the brother who was still continuing to lay the groundwork on the phone, "I'm hanging up. Go find someone else to lay your groundwork with; I don't have the patience to play along with you."
