Ch.341 A Father’s Regret (1)

The entire family was happy about Shen Xiuqi’s successful marriage proposal, especially Grandpa Shen. He was so happy that he gave Shen Xiuqi a call and praised him for his good work, for finally doing something decent.

Shen Xiuqi, who was now engaged, felt a sense of eagerness and excitement that no one else could compare to. He hired a professional wedding planner to start planning the wedding. He wanted to speed things up and hold the wedding ceremony before Su Yaya’s belly got any bigger.

The wedding planner that Shen Xiuqi had gotten was the best wedding planner in the capital. He was also the one who planned for his cousin Shen Xiuwen‘s wedding with Song Yan. Their wedding was very successful.

When he met with the wedding planner, Shen Xiuqi shared his thoughts in detail. He bought an island two years ago, and he wanted to hold the wedding ceremony and invite all their guests there, where a grand island wedding would be held.

The wedding planner made several plans according to Shen Xiuqi’s ideas, such as how to decorate the wedding venue, the rundown of the ceremony, and what to prepare. Everything was planned out. There were a few proposals done and Shen Xiuqi would be the one to decide on one of them.

Shen Xiuqi brought the proposals that were handed in by the wedding planner home and asked Su Yaya to pick one. Su Yaya read each proposal carefully and listed down some of her requests. Finally, she chose one named Dreamlike floriography, a girlish themed wedding.

After deciding on the wedding plan, Shen Xiuqi passed the proposal back to the wedding planner so they could start on the preparation work. The two of them were also intensively preparing for the wedding, taking wedding photos and choosing wedding dresses. The wedding dresses were customized by an international luxury brand, and Shen Xiuqi specifically requested for them to get the dress done quickly, so that it would be ready in time for the ceremony.

On this day, Su Yaya was brought along to the hospital by her second aunt, Zhang Guifang, to visit Father Shen.

Ever since he was admitted, Father Shen had been in the hospital for several days. Su Yaya went to visit him that day and noticed that he wasn’t as energetic as he was compared to her last visit. He also got thinner, it was probably because of the treatments he had to go through in the hospital, it must hurt pretty bad and it made him feel awful.

Su Yaya sat on the side of the bed and spoke with Father Shen for a while. Father Shen didn’t look too good. Most of the time it was Su Yaya who spoke and Father Shen just listened to her. Later that day, Father Shen wanted to rest, so Su Yaya got up and left.

“Dad, have a good rest. I’ll leave first and come visit on another day.” Su Yaya said as she was about to leave.

“Stay safe on the road.” Father Su smiled and nodded slightly to her, he then watched Su Yaya leave before slowly retracting his gaze and turning his head to look out the window.

Su Yaya walked out of the ward, covered her chest with her hand, her heart felt heavy. She could tell that Father Shen wasn’t doing too well. This made her feel sad, she felt sad for Shen Xiuqi.

When she got home, Su Yaya happened to bump into Shen Xiuqi who just got off work.

Shen Xiuqi stepped forward to hold her hand, stroked her face, and asked, “Where have you been?”

Su Yaya hesitated and replied: “I went to the hospital with our second aunt.”

Shen Xiuqi let out an “um”, the corners of his lips moved, but in the end still swallowed his words, and said, “Let’s go in.”

Su Yaya noticed how torn apart Shen Xiuqi was from his gaze, and silently followed Shen Xiuqi back home.
