Wei stared at the man in front of him with hostility. Although this man was good-looking, one could never judge a book by its cover. What if he was a bastard like Yu Yong?
However, the man was not angry. Instead, he approached him step by step.
That scared Wei. He stepped back with his pistol raised. “I’m warning you! Don’t get close! I’ll shoot you!”
Zuo Huo was amused by Wei’s childish words. He smiled and said, “If I remember correctly, you’re the childish Wei who likes to play with water guns that Yao mentioned?”
Wei was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect Yao to mention him in front of this man.
He admitted that he liked to play with water guns, but how was he childish? In a few years, he would grow into an indomitable man!
“So what if it’s me? I’m warning you! If you dare to treat Sister Yao badly, I’ll twist your head off with Brother Xiao! I mean what I say!”
Wei’s act of pretending to be an adult successfully made Zuo Huo laugh, but Song Feng was extremely nervous!
She stood up and pulled Wei over. “What are you talking about, kid? What did I tell you before we left? You forgot, didn’t you?
After saying that, she smiled apologetically at Zuo Huo and said, “Wei is insensible. Don’t mind him.”
“It’s okay.”
Zuo Huo smiled, then lowered his head and said to Wei, “But don’t worry, I, Zuo Huo, will never do anything to let Song Yao down in my life. I mean what I say!”
Zuo Huo’s attitude was firm. Not to mention Wei, even Song Feng was moved by Zuo Huo’s words.
She wiped her tears and said to Zuo Huo, “With your words, I believe that Yao won’t suffer any grievances in the future.”
Zuo Huo smiled. “I understand that you guys feel sorry for Yao.”
Song Feng said, “I watched Yao grow up. If you really plan to be with her, you must live a good life. Take care of her and respect her. Don’t mention the past when you’re arguing and make her sad. I know that not many men can accept a divorcee, but this isn’t Yao’s fault after all. If you can accept it, the two of you can live happily ever after. If you can’t, don’t force yourself.”
Song Feng said a lot of heartfelt words in one breath. Zuo Huo listened to him in his heart and said calmly to Song Feng, “Aunt, don’t worry. Since I decided to marry Yao, I must have thought about it carefully before making a decision. I promise that I will treat her well. As long as I’m still alive, I won’t let Yao suffer at all!”
Song Yao sat at the side and looked at the man in front of her with red eyes.
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Zuo Huo led Song Yao to the door to set off fireworks.
It was already two o’clock in the morning. According to their local customs, they had to stay for the new year.
Song Yao quietly leaned on Zuo Huo’s shoulder and fed him a mouthful of prawn crackers.
“Why don’t we hold the wedding earlier!” Song Yao said, “Because I want to marry you as soon as possible!”
Hearing this, Zuo Huo’s heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey. He hugged Song Yao and spun around excitedly. “Yao, is what you said true?”
Song Yao nodded. “I’ve always wanted to wait for the college entrance examination to end before doing our things, but now that I think about it, I don’t think I can wait that long!”
After Song Yao finished speaking, she took the initiative to climb onto Zuo Huo’s shoulder and whispered into his ear, “Zuo Huo, marry me.” “Are you serious?” Zuo Huo asked in surprise.
Song Yao blushed and nodded.
She was very shy about taking the initiative to propose.
Seeing Song Yao’s red face, Zuo Huo became even more excited. He hugged Song Yao tightly.
Under the brilliant fireworks, a pair of lovers were kissing.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Song Yao told Gu Li about changing the wedding date.
When Gu Li heard this, she grabbed Song Yao’s hand. “You should have done this long ago. There’s no time like the present. Why don’t we set it on the fifteenth of the first month!”
Wasn’t the fifteenth day of the first lunar month a little too fast?
Song Yao was still hesitating when Zuo Huo said, “Then let’s do it on the fifteenth of the first lunar month. I’ll let my family know too.”
“Hey! That’s the best!” Gu Li smiled and began to organize a wedding for Song Yao.
As the wedding had been brought forward a few days, Gu Li couldn’t wait to call her close neighbors on the first day of the Lunar New Year to inform them to come and attend the wedding.
He then called the big restaurant in the county and asked them to reserve a place on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month…
