Chapter 1972: Chapter 1971: Never Apart Again
Luo Haofeng accompanied Bai Xiaoxiao for the weekend.
On Monday morning, he flew back to City B.
After that, the two kept in touch through occasional phone calls, video chats, and messages.
It wasn’t until the afternoon of the twenty-eighth of the twelfth lunar month that he returned to G City, just as he said before he left. Accompanying him to G City was his father, Luo Rongbin.
Even though Luo Haofeng advised over the phone that Bai Xiaoxiao should rest at home and not go to the airport to meet them,
Bai Xiaoxiao still went to the airport.
After all, the person coming to G City was her future father-in-law, who was also there to see his granddaughter and have the first official meeting with her parents to discuss her marriage to Luo Haofeng.
Bai Xiaoxiao felt it would be inappropriate not to go to the airport to meet them.
She was accompanied by Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran.
Wen Ran came along to accompany Bai Xiaoxiao, and Mo Xiuchen was actually called by Luo Haofeng to help pick them up.
When Luo Haofeng and Father Luo came out of security, Mo Xiuchen and the others went up to greet them. After a polite greeting, Mo Xiuchen asked Qing Feng to carry their luggage and went ahead to pick up the car.
Luo Haofeng walked over and took Bai Xiaoxiao’s hand, warmly asking, “Didn’t I tell you to rest at home? Why did you still come?”
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “It’s not easy for Uncle to come to G City, how could I not come to meet him at the airport.”
Although Luo Haofeng didn’t insist on Bai Xiaoxiao coming, he was still moved that she came to the airport in person.
After all, there were past grievances between his parents and Bai Xiaoxiao’s parents, and she was always worried that having his father come to G City might not be good.
Originally, Luo Haofeng suggested having dinner at a hotel, but Mr. Bai and Mother Bai proposed to eat at home instead.
After all, there weren’t many of them, and it felt cozier at home, especially since it was almost the Spring Festival.
Mother Bai cooked personally, with Mr. Bai helping out, and they prepared a lavish dinner to entertain Luo Rongbin.
When Luo Rongbin arrived at the Bai Family’s house, Mr. Bai and Mother Bai were still busy in the kitchen, and Bai Xiaoxiao came downstairs holding Lingling to meet her grandfather.
Luo Rongbin, with a kind smile, took Lingling in his arms. After a few words of coaxing, Lingling also grinned at him.
Seeing Lingling’s pure smile, Luo Rongbin laughed more heartily.
Beside him, Luo Haofeng smilingly reached out to hold Lingling, saying, “Dad, you take a rest for a while, I’ll hold Lingling.”
However, Luo Rongbin dodged to the side, refusing Luo Haofeng’s offer, “What tiredness? Our Lingling is so cute, holding her is not tiring at all.”
Luo Haofeng blinked, observing his father’s expression, secretly thinking, another one to compete for Lingling.
At the dinner table, the elders on both sides talked very cheerfully.
Although initially, Qiao Xiuyun felt a bit awkward seeing Luo Rongbin, as they began discussing Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao’s marriage and their beloved Lingling, the old grievances faded away like clouds.
After dinner, Mr. Bai and Father Luo moved to the study to continue their chat.
The happiest person was undoubtedly Luo Haofeng. Although his marriage to Xiaoxiao was set for next year, in three months,
having a specific date made him feel secure.
“The wedding can be simple, no need for complications.”
In the evening, after sending Luo Rongbin to his place, Luo Haofeng returned to the Bai Family.
Bai Xiaoxiao, seeing Luo Haofeng’s radiant expression, knew he was happy because of the enjoyable dinner tonight.
And even more so because their wedding date was set.
“I want to give you a grand wedding, to make you the happiest bride.”
Bai Xiaoxiao looked up at his handsome face, “A grand wedding doesn’t equate to happiness. I just hope for a simple, peaceful happiness, as long as you are always by Lingling and my side, that’s happiness to me.”
Her voice was soft and gentle, but each word was a heartfelt desire, which stirred an indescribable emotion in Luo Haofeng’s heart.
With a tender voice, he said, “I will always stay with you and Lingling, never separating again.”
It turns out, it wasn’t just him who felt uneasy; Xiaoxiao had her uncertainties too.
Perhaps lovers who have been through many trials to be together always carry a subtle unease, but this unease makes them cherish their present companionship more.
For a moment, neither spoke; they just held each other quietly.
Feeling each other’s deep affection, treasuring the peaceful moment together.
Worried that holding Xiaoxiao too long might make her uncomfortable, Luo Haofeng gently released her, lowering his head…
With a tenderness and care as gentle as the spring breeze transforming into rain.
Treating her as the most precious treasure in the world, reluctant to be even the slightest bit coarse.
In the depth of love, everything happens naturally.
Afterward, Bai Xiaoxiao fell asleep tiredly.
Luo Haofeng, however, was wide awake.
Gazing at Bai Xiaoxiao’s sleeping face for a while, he got out of bed, left the bedroom, and went next door to the children’s room to check if their daughter Lingling was sleeping soundly.
Lingling slept sweetly, her small form and delicate features evoking an indescribable softness in Luo Haofeng’s heart, feeling like watching over them was having the whole world.
Returning to the bedroom, he got back in bed.
Bai Xiaoxiao had already turned over, facing inward, leaving him with a slim back view.
He pulled her into his arms.
A thread of tenderness appeared in his long eyes; while other women’s figures often fill out during and after pregnancy, his Xiaoxiao remained slender.
Even after completing her postpartum period, she hadn’t gained a single pound.
Looking at her so slim, he couldn’t help but feel his heart ache.
He knew Xiaoxiao never cared about those formalities.
What Xiaoxiao wanted was their true companionship, though they had been in love for years, the time they were truly together was so little, with too many days of separation and longing, so her demands were so low.
Thinking of this, Luo Haofeng felt a slight pain in his heart.
Holding the woman in his arms tighter, it seemed only by tightly embracing her, feeling the warmth of their bodies close together, could he truly feel the solidity of this happiness.
“Xiaoxiao, I love you.”
Luo Haofeng whispered softly in Bai Xiaoxiao’s ear. He knew she couldn’t hear it in her sleep, but he still wanted to say it.
“In this life and the next, we will always be together, never parting.”
This was not just a promise to Xiaoxiao, but a constant reminder to himself. In the future, Xiaoxiao and their daughter would be everything in his life; even the company’s development focus was shifted to G City by him.
From now on, he would no longer be separated from Xiaoxiao, nor let her live in fear.
