Chapter 502: Let’s make a baby
By the time evening came, Luna was so tired that she wanted nothing but to kick her heels off and slump onto a random chair to take a nap. Noticing her discomfort, Xingyu stood up to leave the hall and when he returned, a pair of flat sandals appeared beside her feet.
She impatiently took off her high heels and slid her feet into the sandals. "Thank you."
"If you want to thank me, don’t make yourself suffer silently." He scolded her. She had been wearing high heels for the last four hours and if he wasn’t paying attention, she would have hid her discomfort.
"I didn’t want to trouble you over trivial matters. Besides, it’s our wedding day." She explained, making his eyebrows knit closer.
"It’s exactly because it’s our wedding day that you should be having more fun than anyone else—not suffering just to give the guests a show.
"I’m sorry." She said softly, her fair fingers caressing the back of his hand. "Can you not frown at me like that? The guests will think there is trouble in paradise."
He chuckled at her words and a soft smile remained on his lips.
As they spoke, his mother made her way to them.
"My dear, how are you doing?" Xinghe asked, and her question was obviously directed at Luna. Her own son had been totally forgotten.
"I’m fine, mother." She smiled.
The word melted Xinghe’s heart, so much that her eyes stung. "What did you call me? Can you say that again?"
