Childish Flower

It was night when Mu Jin woke up, and the dense night covered the sky like a curtain with only a few bright stars hanging on it, and the surroundings were so quiet that the sound of the wind could be heard.

He opened his tired eyes. His body seemed to be run over by something, so irritatingly sore. There was no sticky feeling in the back. The sheets and quilts were replaced with new ones, and the clothes were neatly folded on the sofa. There is no mess like before.

Three soft knocks on the door broke the silence. Mrs Mu, holding a bowl of steaming fragrant white porridge, gently opened the door and walked in.

Seeing that her son was awake, she put the warm porridge on the side table and sat on the edge of the bed, a little uneasy flashing in her loving eyes.

“Mom…cough cough…” Seeing her mother’s delay in speaking, Mu Jin wanted to break the silence, but he was frightened by his hoarse voice and coughed out of breath.

Mrs Mu immediately got up and poured a cup of warm water for her son, helped him sit up, and put a soft pillow behind him.

Seeing her son ease his anxiety, she asked uneasily, “Xiao Jin, tell your mother honestly, do you…do you like Gao Tianchen?”

Mu Jin didn’t answer her, but stared at the cup in his hand, looking at the light water patterns that spread out in circles, bowed his head and said nothing, the answer was clear.

After all, he was her own son. Mrs Mu had already felt the flesh that fell from her body, should have liked Gao Tianchen.

He awkwardly wanted to hide this affection for a lifetime, but he still couldn’t escape the eyes of his closest relatives.

“Gao Tianchen said he wants to marry you.” Mu Jin trembled slightly after hearing the news, tightly holding the cup in his hand, a pair of lifeless eyes flashed with joy.

As if he thought of something, his eyes dimmed, and he said a little helplessly: “But… he doesn’t like me.”

Madam Mu caressed his white cheeks. How could he not expect it, but reality always forced people to have no way. The Mu family wants to tie up that excellent and well-known alpha to Mu Jin, who is only five points similar to Mu Ze.

“It’s okay, everything will be fine.” Madam Mu could do nothing but comfort, after all, she had planned this result.

She is selfish, but Mu Jin likes Gao Tianchen. This arrangement can be regarded as fulfilling his son’s wish.

If there is no such circumstance, her son may not be able to get his response to his love in his entire life.

She let Mu Jin rest well. The wedding will be held in two weeks. She also said that as long as he treats Gao Tianchen sincerely, the other party will be moved by him.

Mrs Mu’s words of comfort were kept in his heart, and he continued to support his life afterwards. Even if he suffered from the indifference and ignorance of the other party, he believed that there would be a day when the clouds and mists will clear and flowers will get the light.

The wedding was held as scheduled in this blossoming city. Both parties were considered prominent families. They chose the largest and most luxurious church in this city to hold the marriage.

The pure white church is heavily deposited with stone and brick, and the crystal chandelier above the head is bright and elegant. The entire venue is dazzling, the painted windows and marble tiles brought colour and life to the church. White rose, a symbol of loyalty, is decorated wherever they can be.

Both of them are in white suits with fine workmanship, but they don’t give out the same aura. Although Mu Jin is not particularly short, his body is slightly thin, and his soft facial features show a youthful purity. On the other hand, Gao Tianchen’s specially tailored suit reflects his slender figure, showing maturity and skill. The fine strands of hair on the forehead were combed meticulously, revealing the exquisite features of heroism and the outline of firmness.

He heard the priest say: “Gao Tianchen, are you willing to partner with Mu Jin, love him, respect him, protect him, in sickness and health, whether rich or poor and always be loyal to him until you leave the world?”

Mu Jin’s eyes were tender and expectant. He(GT) hesitated. He had no plan or courage to give the ideal love to the person in front of him. His vows had long since disappeared in memories with Mu Ze’s departure.

Even if he knew it was a necessary procedure for the wedding, he still couldn’t speak.

The atmosphere was silent, looking at the other party, because of his(GT) hesitation, his ears were dyed with a faint embarrassing red, and the light brown hair was looming, his eyes were dark, he lowered his head and looked away.

The brilliant sunlight cast by the stained glass dazzled his eyes, and the other person’s face gradually blurred in his sight. It seemed that he was the person he was thinking about day and night, the person living in his heart, and he was waiting for his answer.

His lips opened, and he uttered his vows softly.

“Yes, I do.”
