Five years after my wife's death, she came back!

After that night, Shang Chenyan seemed to have discovered a new world.

He became exceptionally clingy, indulging in cuddling and teasing Shiying every night, a young man in his early twenties, in the prime of his physical strength.

The day after graduation, early in the morning, Shi Ying felt like she hadn't even fallen asleep when he dragged her out of bed again.

The two went to get their marriage certificate.

The names and photos of the two people were engraved on a small red book.

With the marriage certificate, he became even more unrestrained.

Only Shi Ying suffered unspeakable bitterness.

However, after more than half a month of his extreme lack of restraint, Shi Ying's period arrived.

Shang Chenyan was somewhat depressed.

For the first time, Shi Ying felt that her period had its advantages. Although her stomach was a little uncomfortable, she laughed so hard she almost fell over when she saw Shang Chenyan's helpless expression as he took off half of his clothes.

"Don't move, just lie still." The man pinched her cheek, got her a hot water bottle, then took off his watch, picked up her soiled clothes and blanket, and went to the bathroom.

Shi Ying lay on the sofa, took a sip of brown sugar water, and was about to put down the cup when she saw Shang Chenyan's phone light up.

It was his father calling.

The sound of running water coming from the bathroom drowned out the telephone ringing.

Shi Ying had met her father at the company. Uncle Shang treated her very well, and the rumor that he "left my son with five million" did not happen.

Shi Ying took her phone and ran to the bathroom.

Shang Chenyan washed the soiled areas of the clothes before putting them in the washing machine. Seeing her come in, he asked, "What happened?"

"Your dad's on the phone."

Shang Chenyan still had laundry detergent in his hand, and Shi Ying held it up to his ear.

It's unclear what the two said, but Shang Chenyan has never been particularly enthusiastic about his family, only giving a few simple "hmms".

"What's wrong?"

"Dad wants us to come home for dinner."

Shi Ying looked at him nervously: "Tonight? I...I'm not ready yet."

When they were dating, Shang Chenyan only took her to have a meal with his parents once. Cheng Suyun didn't seem to like her very much, but Shang Haisheng was quite kind. After they got their marriage certificate, they never met again.

Shi Ying is a bit protective of her own. Since Shang Chenyan is not close to his parents, she naturally doesn't have much enthusiasm for them either.

Shang Chenyan washed his hands before carrying her back to the sofa: "The new house will be renovated soon. We'll move in after the wedding next month, and we won't live with them anymore."

"My sister and brother-in-law are coming back to China tonight with wedding gifts. I've also asked my sister to help look after the wedding, so we're going over for a meal together. It won't be long."

Seeing his long explanation, Shi Ying smiled and said, "I understand. With you here, I don't have to worry about anything."

That evening, the two arrived at the old house.

Shi Ying wore a white satin dress today and styled her hair in a half-updo, looking simple and elegant.

At the dinner table, Shang Shijin pulled her aside and talked a lot. Shang Haisheng also asked about the couple's wedding, but didn't interfere too much.

Cheng Suyun didn't say much, and Shi Ying knew that she wanted to find a daughter from a prestigious family for her son, so she was definitely not satisfied with him.

She didn't speak, and Shi Ying didn't initiate a conversation either; she wasn't about to waste her time on him.

Shang Shijin was very talkative, and there was no dull moment during the meal. However, Shi Ying always felt that someone was looking at her. She followed her intuition and looked over, and saw Shang Shijin's husband, Yuan Song.

Meeting her gaze, Yuan Song smiled and nodded, raising his glass in a gesture of acknowledgment.

Shi Ying thought she was overthinking it and didn't pay much attention.

During her period, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach and back after sitting for a long time, so she instinctively leaned on Shang Chenyan's arm.

Shang Chenyan looked down at her and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Shi Ying hummed softly, then grabbed his hand and played with it, saying, "My back hurts."

"Then let's go back first." Shang Chenyan served her a bowl of red date and bird's nest porridge. "Have some hot porridge to calm down. I'll say a few words to my dad and then we'll leave."

"You should eat properly." Cheng Suyun frowned as she looked at the two of them being so intimate, oblivious to everyone else. "There should be etiquette at the dining table. After you marry into the family, you'll inevitably have to go out and socialize for Chen Yan. After your wedding, I'll invite an etiquette teacher to our home to teach you."

The atmosphere in the restaurant immediately turned cold.

Shang Haisheng gave Cheng Suyun a warning look, signaling her to say less.

Cheng Suyun felt uneasy. Such a big thing as getting married, they just got their marriage certificate without even asking for their opinions.

Moreover, Shi Ying looks gentle and mild-mannered, but she is indifferent to him, which is not how a daughter-in-law should act.

Shang Chenyan's face remained expressionless: "She doesn't need to learn these things."

Cheng Suyun grew angrier the more she thought about it: "No need? Look at the state she's in now!"

Shi Ying almost jumped up. What did she do?! She was like this!

At this moment, Shang Chenyan held her hand tightly. He looked at Cheng Suyun with a cold gaze: "She is fine now. Our marriage doesn't need your interference."

"Also, please respect my wife."

That was the first time he defied Cheng Suyun.

*

The weather was fine on the day of the wedding.

Shi Ying chose a lawn wedding.

They didn't invite too many people, just two close friends, and didn't let the media report on it. Shi Ying didn't like living under the gaze of others, and Shang Chenyan was very protective of her privacy.

Little 8, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared, setting off fireworks in her mind: 【Yingbao, you two must be together forever!】

Xiao8: [The corruption level of the mission target has been detected to have dropped to a safe range. The mission reward has been deposited into your real-world account. I won't be following you anymore, but if you need anything, just summon me.]

Shi Ying: [Thank you, Xiao 8.]

The moment the two exchanged rings, Little 8 happily spun around and disappeared.

The nagging that used to surround her disappeared, and Shi Ying felt a little melancholy. These four years felt like a dream.

She originally just wanted to play games and make some money on the side, but she never expected to meet the person she wanted to spend her life with here.

Sunlight shone on the man's handsome face, and at that moment, everyone around him seemed to fade into the background.

In her eyes, there was only Shang Chenyan's smiling face.

Shi Ying smiled too.

She stood on tiptoe and kissed him first.
