Chapter 492: Sheng Rang Extra 2, Jiang Tang Extra, Textile Appears (Second Update)
At the table next door sat members of the Lu family.
Lu Sheng was getting married, and the one who had the hardest time was Lu Jingsong. He had been unable to sleep or eat properly for three days. Marrying off his daughter made him experience the piercing pain in the chest that all fathers with a daughter-complex share—fear of marrying off a daughter.
He was dressed in olive green military uniform, his head buried, his shoulders trembling.
Yao Bixi passed him a tissue, "Stop crying now, the wedding is about to start. You still need to lead Shengsheng in the procession. What would it look like, crying and sobbing like this?"
He had always been iron-willed in the army. How could he possibly cry? It was impossible! Never would he cry! He lifted his head, "I’m not crying."
"Then what’s that on your face? Water?"
"..." His wife really was his own flesh and blood.
Lu Jingsong wiped his face. No matter how iron-willed he was, he was still a father. The flower he had carefully raised for over twenty years was about to be taken away, pot and all. How could he feel nothing? There were some things he could only say to his wife, "Yesterday night I dreamed that Shengsheng had just learned to speak, lying in her crib calling me daddy."
As he spoke, the iron-willed Army Commander’s eyes filled with tears once more, "In the blink of an eye, she’s grown up so much, about to be married off to someone else’s family..." By the end of his speech, the iron-willed Army Commander was sobbing uncontrollably.
Beside him, Lu Xinglan was much calmer. He wasn’t weepy and whiny. He just occasionally gave Zhou Qingrang a look sharp enough to cut.
This was the fourth time Yao Bixi had seen her husband cry. The first time was when she accepted his proposal, the second was during the birth of Lu Xinglan, the third was during the birth of Lu Sheng.
This was the fourth time, but it was the first in front of such a large crowd.
