He hummed in agreement. “I only understood today. He used to love my brother almost to the point of spoiling him. After my brother’s accident, he changed completely and has been critical of everything I do. I thought he considered me inferior…”
“He’s afraid of losing you again.”
“Yes.”
The plane flew steadily in the sky. I nestled into the wide leather seat, surrounded by his scent, and closed my eyes.
“Kiddo, are you tired?”
“What do you think?” I didn’t open my eyes. After last night’s events, how could I not be tired?
Ye Zhengchen stood up, and I quickly sat up straight. “Do you need something? I’ll help you.”
“I’m going to the bathroom. If you insist on helping, I don’t mind.”
Perhaps too exhausted, I soon fell asleep. In a hazy state, I felt a blanket being carefully placed over me and a warm pillow supporting my head.
I dreamed that I married Ye Zhengchen. Many people attended my wedding, including Brother Feng, Sister-in-law Feng, and Lingling. I even saw Yin Zhongtian in the distance, wearing a familiar white shirt from his youth.
I called to him until he finally turned around. “If you ever need help with anything, you can always come to me.” But he turned and left, still unable to forgive me.
“Kiddo…”
I heard Ye Zhengchen calling me, running back to the hall in my wedding dress. To the melodious wedding march, I linked arms with Ye Zhengchen and walked up the red carpet.
Yang Lan left, and I held the VIP card, asking Ye Zhengchen, “Is this mall about to go out of business?”
“This mall belongs to their family and carries world-class brands like LV and Dior.”
These brands at half price make one imagine how expensive the gift was. “Isn’t this a bit too precious? Should I return it?”
Someone confidently replied, “No need. We’re all friends, why be so formal?”
I looked at the shiny card in my hand. “Do you have many friends like this?”
“Not bad!”
Later, I discovered that his friends were extraordinary.
In the afternoon, another handsome guy arrived, looking more unrestrained than Ye Zhengchen. Before he entered, Ye Zhengchen grabbed an apple and threw it. “You actually know how to come back?”
