Old man Chang pretty much recognize the humble looking man behind Ivy.
He had been feeling so guilty all his life for what he have done in the past.
He somewhat felt responsible for the fallout between his daughter and TP's father.
If he wasn't so stubborn before and had just let his daughter marry the man that she love they wouldn't have suffered and would've still be a happy family.
He stood up and bowed in front of the humble man. All the guests watch as the drama unfold right before their eyes
They were surprise to see the proud old general kowtowing infront of an unknown man.
General Li who was mingling with his friends was also dumbfounded to see his rival publicly throwing his pride away infront of everyone.
The humble man hurriedly went and helped the old man to get up off the floor.
"Father, you don't have to do this. It's alright."
He gently said. Ivy also went to Grandpa Chang's side and helped.
"Father, I have something to tell you. You see.... We already got married."
Ivy revealed and excitedly showed her ring finger to her father.
She have a platinum wedding band with gold streak on it.
It represents how they went their separate ways and had finally reconciled.
The wedding ring looks so simple yet delicate and beautiful.
When Ivy went out to look for TP's father she was not really planning to have any romantic relationship with him.
After all it's been quite a long time since she last heard news about him.
She was expecting for him to already moved on and have his family of his own.
She started looking for him back at the old neighborhood where they stayed.
Luckily for her, some of her old neighbors had kept in contact with TP's father so she easily tracked him.
She found out that TP's father Leo Xin had long resigned as a manager of the publishing company where they first met.
He had became a kintsugi artist and was living in solitude in the mountains.
He had never had any romantic relationship of some sort to anyone other than her.
Upon arriving at the humble atelier of Leo, she walked in on him busily making a kintsugi art.
She quietly watched him as her heart skipped a beat when she saw how determined and serious Leo looked while he carefully mold the gold into the broken pots.
It's exactly how she felt the first time that they bumped into each other.
Leo had an amazing aura when he was immersed into doing something.
And it's the reason why Ivy fell in love with him.
His determined attitude was Ivy's weakness.
"Finally."
The old man exclaimed and heartily laughed. He had forgotten all about the guests and just merrily hugged both his daughter and his son in law.
He never thought the day would come where his only daughter would be a married woman.
The guilty feeling that he had slows fades. Lots of unexpected things have happened that day.
Indeed it was the best birthday celebration that he had in years.
