With her loved ones cheering for her, Wu Meiying could not stop herself from smiling as she walked to the center of the stage.
“Your friends are quite enthusiastic,” Zhou Lihua said. Even her voice was beautiful and lilting.
Wu Meiying smiled brightly. “Yes, they are. But you’re mistaken about our relationship.”
“Oh?”
“Jian is the man I am going to marry in the future, and Hou Jingshu is going to become my sister when she marries him too,” Wu Meiying said proudly.
“So you are both engaged to Wu Jian? I suppose it is natural to be engaged at this age, but aren’t you a little young to be thinking about marriage?”
“Not at all. Marrying Jian has been my dream for as long as I can remember.”
Even if she didn’t understand why her feelings for him were so powerful, it did not change how she felt. Wu Jian had been with her for as long as she could remember. He was her light in the darkness, her bastion and haven. She only felt comfortable and save when in his presence.
