Chapter 812 - 780: Really Three (2)_2
Old Master Xiao, as a grandfather, was evidently very excited and joyful.
After the laughter, Old Master Xiao became emotional: "Ah, in my memory, you were just born. So tiny, so soft; I was even afraid to hold you. And now, in the blink of an eye, you’ve grown so big and are even about to get married and soon have children of your own. Your grandmother was worried about you until her last moments, but now, she can rest easy watching over you from heaven."
"Grandpa." Xiao Muli looked at his grandfather being so emotional and was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to say to comfort him.
"It’s alright, look at me, talking about these unnecessary things on such a joyous day. Alright, alright, your groomsmen will arrive soon, and when it’s time, we’ll set off to pick up the bride." In a blink, Xiao Muli was back to his usual cheerful self as if he hadn’t been the one who made those emotional remarks.
Xiao Muli’s groomsmen were also from the same compound. Although they were not as close as Yu Qihao’s relationship with him, they still got along well. As for Yu Qihao, Xiao Muli wouldn’t foolishly ask him to be a groomsman.
After the engagement party, Xiao Muli once mentioned Yu Qihao during a call with Situ Jin. He said that Yu Qihao had attended his engagement with Situ Xin. Since returning from that event, Yu Qihao seemed a bit down. Situ Jin saw this several times and wanted to comfort him but didn’t know how to start.
Regarding this, Xiao Muli felt sorry, but there was nothing else he could do. He wouldn’t give up Situ Xin for the sake of their brotherhood. He thought that perhaps, with time, Yu Qihao would let go of his feelings for Situ Xin.
However, this was just what Xiao Muli hoped for in his heart; he knew how unlikely that was.
Once the groomsmen and the wedding company’s staff arrived, they could set off to collect the bride. The Xiao Family and the Situ Family lived in the same large compound, quite close to each other; just a few steps away. But during the bride collection, a wedding car was necessary. For such a short distance, the car would simply have to leave the compound, circle around, and then head to the Situ Family.
At Situ Xin’s place, since today was officially the day Situ Xin was leaving her family home, the women of the house were accompanying her in her room. Old Madam Situ and Old Madam Loo were especially emotional, holding Situ Xin’s hands, their eyes red from unshed tears.
Luckily, because Situ Xin was marrying within the same compound, just a few steps away, her family members would definitely not agree if she were to marry someone far away, or they would instead have the groom move in with them.
