Ji Zitong’s mother quickly packed Ji Zitong’s luggage up according to her needs. There were some clothes and items for daily use.

Chen Ling went on and on, but when she noticed that Ji Zitong was not replying at all, she looked over and saw that the girl was sleeping on the sofa with a magazine covering her face. She frowned. “Tongtong, are you listening to me?”

Ji Zitong pushed the magazine away and huffed impatiently, “Yes, yes, I know. You want me to treat Su Chen well and be gentler, right?”

“What’s with that attitude? I’m telling you that marrying someone is going to be a new experience for you. I don’t care what you were thinking about before. Forget all that and focus on your new life with Su Chen.”

Chen Ling had been waiting for the day Ji Zitong got married. Now, she just wished for her to live a happy life because she knew very well the kind of bland and aimless life she had gone through all these years. Dong Wentao might have been the cause of her torment!

“I know, I know. I’ll treat him well. Why are you already siding with him when he hasn’t even done anything for you?” Ji Zitong frowned in annoyance as she went over to her dressing table and added some stuff into the bag. “I chose him of my own will, so don’t worry about me as I’m ready to start life anew. You don’t have to mention the past anymore. I know what kind of life I want to lead. You can focus on your life with Father and stop worrying about me.”

“You’re our only daughter. Who else will we worry about if not you? By the way, Su Chen mentioned the wedding ceremony just now. I’ll talk to your father about it tonight. Although we’re not really a rich family, we’ve been saving up for your dowry. After all, they are a prestigious family and we can’t embarrass our family, so leave that to us,” Chen Ling said.

A wedding ceremony?

Ji Zitong frowned when she heard those words.

Su Chen never mentioned anything about it to her!

She was not really looking forward to a wedding because it did not really matter to her. She felt that there was no point going through a sacred ritual when the two of them were not in love, so they might as well just leave it out.

“We’ll talk about the wedding next time. It’s just a bunch of people feasting while everyone makes small talk all around. It’s not particularly meaningful,” Ji Zitong replied.

“What? Your father and I only have one daughter, and everyone’s been waiting for this! What’s wrong with your family feeling proud of your marriage? What are you talking about? Moreover, Su Chen is the Su family’s only son. With their social status, they’d definitely want it to happen!” Chen Ling seemed to be in disagreement with Ji Zitong’s views.

Ji Zitong snorted. “Mother, since when did your views become so traditional like Father’s? I’m the one who’ll decide on the wedding. I’m not interested in having it. Plus, things are getting busy at the flower store. I’ve fulfilled your wish and gotten married, so just leave me be for now.”

“What are you talking about? I…”

Thump—

Chen Ling sounded vexed. Just as she was about to say something else, someone knocked on the door, and they noticed Su Chen outside the door.

“Su Chen, are you done talking to Father?” said Chen Ling, forcing a smile.

Su Chen nodded. “We’ve been done for quite a while now. Have you finished packing?” He glanced over towards the dressing table where Ji Zitong stood up with a black backpack in her hands. She put several books in and zipped it up. “It’s almost done. Let’s head down.”

She walked over and was about to pick up her luggage, but Su Chen was a step ahead of her and grabbed it first.

It was already 4 p.m. when they stepped out of the Ji Residence. It was still drizzling and the sky was gray. Such weather could easily spoil one’s mood.

Ji Zitong’s parents followed them to Su Chen’s car. Since Assistant He left after delivering the gifts, Su Chen would be the one driving.

Ji Zitong’s parents watched as he put everything into his car. They seemed a little reluctant to part when they looked to Ji Zitong who had kept quiet all this while.

“Please take care of yourselves. Without your mother and I beside you, you have to take care of yourself too. Come back if you have the time. It’s quiet with just your mother and me in the house,” Ji Zitong’s father patted her shoulder as he said.

Ji Zitong nodded quietly

“Su Chen, I’m leaving Zitong in your hands. Please treat her well as she’s our only child. Don’t hurt her or I can’t promise that I’ll let you get away easily with this. Got it?” Ji Zitong’s father gave Su Chen a stern reminder.

Su Chen stood beside Ji Zitong and noticed she seemed a little lonely, so he held her hand and replied with a firm tone, “Don’t worry. I’ll be sure to take care of her.”

“Tongtong can be pretty stubborn. Anyway, I’ll leave her in your care, Su Chen.”

“It’s alright. I think she’s fine.” Su Chen put on a smile as he gave his wife a meaningful glance, but she glared back at him.

“It’s getting late now and the weather is turning cold. You guys should head back. Give us a call if you need anything. Come back when you have time.”

“Alright, you two should go back home as well. Take care of yourself during the rainy season!” Su Chen was concerned about the old couple.

“Okay! Goodbye!”

“Goodbye!”

Su Chen and Ji Zitong bowed to her parents before getting into the car.
