After having lunch, Li cheng brought Tang meili to his family.
The Li family's residence,
"Brother! You're going to marry with Queen Tang?!" A loud woman's voice almost shook the whole mansion.
Li cheng closed his eyes and raised his brows after he opened them. He could feel his eardrums buzzing with echos. Did his mother craved for microphone and speaker when she was pregnant with her?
Even Tang meili closed her eyes and smiled helplessly. She didn't know Li cheng have a sister and she was also a type who like to taste her vocsl chords...
Li wanwan almost choked when her brother announced he will marry the Fallen Queen of fashion. She was a very fan of Tang meili and loved her designs. If she are to be her sister-in-law, won't it be amazing?!
"I've told you, I'll marry her".
Li Qiunyan, Li cheng's father and He mianmian, his mother, scanned tang meili.
If their memories served them right, this girl is the one who rejected their son right? The girl who also their son's client to sue her family, right? So she was indeed beautiful and have good manners...
Tang meili was sitting beside Li cheng and have a cup of tea in her hands, placed on her lap. She was quite quiet today which amused Li cheng .
"Let's hold an engagement first. I won't accept any case for the time being and I'm resting for half a year, so the engagement should be hold within those times," Li cheng glanced mildly at the exceptionally quiet tang meili and looked at his mother.
He mianmian nodded. "That's good. Little girl, don't be so tense. Just call me 'mother' like what cjeng called me. We're not objecting this relationship, don't worry," she smiled at tang meili.
To others, she was smiling casually but for Tang meili who yearned for a familial love was stunned hearing the gentleness and overflowing love in her tone. She clasped on the cup tightly and felt that she have made a right choice to accept Li cheng.
She smiled and nodded, "sure. Please take care of me".
Li cheng reached out and took the teacup away from her, frowning, "no need to be so formal. This is also your family," he then put the teacup to the table and hold her hand. He intertwined their fingers together and his next words gently knocked the last wall around her heart, "don't worry, this family won't leave you".
Tang meili looked blankly at their hands and feel indescribable feeling arose in her chest. Happiness and joy was bubbling inside of her. The feeling of being loved, protected and doted on..isn't this two wonderful?
Unknowingly, a drop of tear fall from her eyes, dropping on top of their clasped hands. Li cheng who felt the hot tear, smiled. He looked at his smiling parents and sister before patting her head, "you finally have a family you dreamt on, have man you can rely on and a complete family to share all of it".
Tang meili burst to tears instantly and shocked the whole family. She hid her face to his chest and thanked him continously.
When they felt that they are a bit distracting for the couple, li wanwan and her parents gave them space and told the servants to not disturb them. They then close the living room's door so that Tang meili won't feel embarassed when she's over.
Li cheng hold her shoulders, looking down on the crying woman. He looked at the closed door and leaned down, put his hand on the back of her head and pulled her to his chest. "Just cry. No need to hold back. I'm here and I will always be here," after he finished, the woman's wails become even more painful.
