As a man, Tingxiao Xie noticed something was wrong in Lin Qingxuan's eyes at a glance, and put his arm around Gu Xiqing's waist to silently declare his sovereignty.

"We're getting married, and you have to come."

Lin Qingxuan nodded, "As the brother who watched Xiqing grow up, I will come."

Now he can only attend the engagement party as a neighbor's brother, and in the future he can only attend her wedding in this capacity.

After Gu Xiqing finished the introduction, she pulled Xie Tingxiao into the dance floor and said, "Tingxiao, let's go dance!"

"Okay." Nicholas Tse held her hand tightly and danced with her on the dance floor. With the music and lights, and amid the laughter of the crowd, they became an enviable couple.

Lin Qingxuan sat alone in the corner, drinking one glass of wine after another.

He was shrouded in shadows, and one could not see the emotions on his face. One could only see the man hidden in the darkness, pouring glass after glass of wine into his mouth.

After the engagement party, he stayed in this country for a while and then hurried back home.

Gu Xiqing offered to see him off with Xie Nicholas Tse, but Lin Qingxuan refused.

After returning to China, he plunged into the Lin family's business.

Over the years, Lin Qingxuan has withstood Mr. Lin's test again and again. From the age of ten to now, at the age of twenty-five, he has perfectly completed the targets every time. Therefore, he successfully obtained control from Lin Maohua.

Tiansheng belongs to Lin Qingxuan, not the Lin family, so Tiansheng was regarded by Lin Qingxuan as a dowry from Gu Xiqing's parents' home and given to Gu Xiqing as a gift for her marriage.

"Senior! I can't accept this! I'm not so poor that I can't afford to eat. How can you just give Tiansheng to me? This is the kingdom you've worked hard to build since you were very young!"

In the restaurant, Gu Xiqing looked at the transfer contract and was so scared that she quickly refused it.

Lin Qingxuan handed her the pen and said, "You are getting married soon. Your uncle and aunt have prepared a dowry for you. As your brother, I must give you a good gift."

"Then you can't give me something so expensive!"

Tiansheng! Tiansheng Group, who doesn't know it? It was built by a talented young CEO! And he just gave it to her like that?

"You know my situation. The Lin family's business is a heavy burden, and I can't manage Tiansheng. Instead of letting Tiansheng decline day by day, why don't you take it over and manage it well for me?"

Gu Xiqing looked at the transfer contract and frowned in embarrassment. "You can find a professional agent to manage Tiansheng for you. I really can't accept this gift."

Even if they grew up together, there is no need to give him such an expensive gift. Does he have so much money that he has no place to spend it?

"You don't want it, so you don't recognize me as your brother? Are you so heartless?" Lin Qingxuan pretended to be angry and stared at her with a frown.

Gu Xiqing hurriedly shook her head, "No, no... Alas... I'll sign! Then I... I'll make it clear in advance that I'll just help you manage it. If you want to come back later, just ask."

"The Lin family's main group alone is enough to keep me busy." Lin Qingxuan smiled bitterly and watched her sign her name on the transfer contract. He asked Special Assistant Wu to take the contract to the legal department to go through the procedures.

Not long after, on a sunny day in midsummer, Gu Xiqing got married.

Lin Qingxuan attended the wedding as the best man. Along the way, he followed Tingxiao Xie through various levels set by them and successfully opened the door of her room. She was sitting on the bed in a festive dress. The moment the door opened, she showed a happy and surprised smile. There were cheers all around, and people's joy was endless.

Everything around him was dark, only she was colorful and bright.

There was a constant buzzing sound in his ears, and when someone pulled him, he realized that he was blocking the middle of the road.

Nicholas Tse picked her up, and a group of people followed them out happily until they got into the car.

The wedding was held on a piece of grass. Lin Qingxuan had previously discussed with Du Mingtang, Gu Xiqing and others that he would provide the wedding venue himself.

So this perfect wedding scene design in front of us was designed by him personally.

Sitting in the crowd, I heard the priest say to the pure and beautiful bride, "Ms. Gu, are you willing to marry this man? Do you want to be your husband? Do you want to be married to him? Do you want to love him, care for him, respect him, accept him, and be faithful to him forever, no matter sickness or health, no matter poverty or wealth, or any other reason? Do you want to ... married to him? Do you want to be married to him? Do you want to be married to him? Do you want to be married to him? Do you want to be married to him? Do you want to be married to him? Do you want to be married to him?

Then the bride's excited and happy reply was heard: "I am willing to marry Xie Nicholas Tse, no matter life, old age, sickness or death, no matter poverty or wealth, I will never leave you."

The sunlight was dazzling, and her sweet voice was particularly loud.

The priest then said to the groom, "Mr. Xie, do you wish this woman to be your wife and to be bound by a covenant with her? To love her, care for her, respect her, accept her, and be faithful to her forever, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, or for any other reason?"

The groom's loving gaze fell on the bride, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up. "I do. I am willing to marry Gu Xiqing. No matter life, old age, sickness or death, no matter poverty or wealth, I will love her, cherish her, never leave her, and protect her for the rest of my life."

I do...

Lin Qingxuan answered over and over again in his heart.

I do! I do!

Gu Xiqing! Xiqing... I do!

I am willing to marry you, for a long time, and be together forever!

I do...

The priest smiled kindly and looked at the crowd, "Are you all willing to witness their wedding vows?"

A surge of cheers rang out in my ears, "Yes! Yes!!"

"Yes..." He followed the cheers one after another, endured the heart-wrenching pain, and was willing to make her happy.

Nicholas Tse lives in a happy family, he cherishes his feelings and will be happy.

-

Suburban cemetery.

A new bunch of flowers appeared in the open space.

"You are married and living happily with the one you love."

Lin Qingxuan sat down beside him, lowered his eyes, and touched the ring on his ring finger with a faint expression. A sour smile appeared on his lips, and his voice was so low that he couldn't hear it clearly, "I'm sorry... forgive me for having missed happiness..."

A year later, Gu Xiqing gave birth to a lovely daughter and named her Xie Shengsheng. From then on, her circle of friends changed from sharing the daily life of two people to the daily life of three people.

At the full moon banquet, Lin Qingxuan sent a gift, and Special Assistant Wu sent a photo of their family of three. The happiness in the photo was visibly overflowing the screen.

Later, year after year, Xie Shengsheng unknowingly reached old age and was of marriageable age.

As Xie Shengsheng's elder, he attended the wedding, had dinner with Gu Xiqing and Xie Nicholas Tse, and drove back to S City alone.

It was snowing lightly that day, the vision became blurred, the car skidded, and an accident occurred on the cross-sea bridge.

The car fell into the deep sea and the cold sea water filled my arms.

He had chosen a cemetery for himself early on, a small cemetery in the suburbs that had always been vacant.

The keeper of the cemetery said that since he was young, he would come here and sit for a whole day every few days.

Gu Xiqing and Xie Tingxiao went to attend his funeral. For some reason, looking at the auditorium, she felt a strange sadness in her heart.

It was just a fleeting suffocation, but it almost strangled her to death.

"Are you okay?" Xie Tingxiao quickly supported her.

Gu Xiqing grabbed his arm to steady herself, looked back at the auditorium filled with white chrysanthemums, and shook her head slightly.

Xie Shengsheng cried until she was out of breath and threw herself into Gu Xiqing's arms, wailing loudly, "I should have asked Uncle Lin to stay with me that day. He is already old. It is so dangerous for him to go back to City S from City A alone at night. Wuwuwu...Uncle Lin..."

He did a lot of charity in his life, and many people came to his burial day.

The strange thing is that he has been saying for many years that he has a lover. Whenever he encounters a drinking party, he will go home early, saying, "It's getting late, I have to go home. If I go home late, my wife will worry."

However, on the day of his burial, his wife did not appear, and there was no news of his marriage.

Only a pair of rings were found among his belongings.

Gu Xiqing knew this pair of rings. She had seen Lin Qingxuan wearing the other one, and when she asked him about it, he said, "I made this when I was traveling with your sister-in-law. She always wanted to travel with me, but I was too busy before and didn't have time to accompany her. This time, I accompanied her to many places."

"When will you bring your sister-in-law here and introduce her to us?" she asked him.

He just smiled and looked out the window, "She's busy too. We're both very busy people. I'll bring her here when I have time."

He also learned from his close cousin Lin Qiaoran, "My eldest brother? I've never met my sister-in-law... But I did hear my eldest brother say that I have a sister-in-law, and he prepares gifts for her every year."

Lin Qingxuan's lover has existed since Gu Xiqing got married, but no one has ever seen what she looks like, not even the people in the Lin family.

"There's a lot of chaos going on in our Lin family. My eldest brother loves my sister-in-law very much, so he didn't let her come to the Lin family..." After thinking about it, Lin Qiaoran could only come up with this reason.

Although I haven't seen my sister-in-law for many years, her eldest brother has always mentioned that the annual gift is still there.

Maybe it was one of the people who came to the funeral.

Since the eldest brother doesn't want to be exposed, then just follow his wishes and don't ask too many questions.

"Sister Xiqing, thank you for coming to my eldest brother's funeral. My eldest sister-in-law might be there too, so we should not disturb her too much."

Gu Xiqing nodded absentmindedly.

The weather was overcast and rainy, with dark clouds hanging overhead, making people feel uncomfortable.

The Lin family has an ancestral cemetery, but he wants to be buried in this remote place. I heard from the gardener that he often came here when he was young. Is there anything new about this place?

Gu Xiqing didn't understand. She only saw the soil wet by rain covering the coffin, and vaguely saw a fluorescent butterfly flapping its wings and disappearing into the coffin.

It was so fast, so fleeting, that I thought it was just an illusion.

Xie Tingxiao hugged her and comforted her, "He must have gone to a good place."

"Ah."

"Uncle Lin will definitely go to a good place!" Xie Shengsheng sobbed beside her.

From childhood to adulthood, Uncle Lin loved her the most, and she really couldn't accept that Uncle Lin was gone like this.

-

Lin Qingxuan died in winter when his car tires slipped and he fell into the sea and died.

Xie Shengsheng would visit him every year on his death anniversary, and would bring her children to see him, "Uncle Lin, Mom transferred your Tiansheng Group to me, and I've managed it well."

"Uncle Lin, this snowflake is so beautiful!" Xie Shengsheng's child scraped off a layer of snowflakes from the tombstone, picked up a beautiful snowflake and put it close to the portrait in front of the tombstone. "Uncle Lin, look, you saw it too, right?"

It snowed heavily in S City this year, covering the entire city in white.

When Gu Xiqing looked at the snowy scene, vague words flashed through her mind, and her tone was filled with an indelible melancholy, "Ajie, do you think it will snow this winter? I haven't seen snow in a long time."
