Because I simply love you

Chapter 475: Happily ever after

Jinhai asked, "When are you going to tell Uncle and Aunt Xiang?"

Huian said, "When we return to Beijing. Shin suggested talking to Uncle and Aunt Liang first. But I am really nervous"

He smiled. "Don't be. I know they like you. They will be really happy for you two. And Uncle and Aunt Xiang too."

"Thank you"

"Brooooooooo take Nian away from me! He is tearing apart my hair!" Jing cried from a distance, "I will go bald at this rate!"

Jinhai and Huian chuckled.

"Let me go and save him."

"En."

Jianyu and Serena were sitting on a swing with Zixin as they watched all the fun going on.

Jianyu held her hand and kissed the back of it. "I am so happy."

Serena grinned. "You cannot be happier than me. Ten months ago, this day was just a part of my dreams. I had lost all my hope of it ever becoming true"

Jianyu cut her off by gently placing his lips on hers. "That is the past. Let it be just there. Our present and future" he lovingly looked at Zixin and kissed his forehead, "is here with us."

Her eyes turned slightly sore. "En."

Zixin giggled and touched their parent's chins.

They chuckled and kissed his two cheeks together while tightly intertwining their hands.

Huian once again returned from the washroom. She was tired of puking and morning sickness. Even at the breakfast table, she could hardly eat anything.

Shin quickly arranged for a light meal that would go easy on her. Last night, he did his whole research on pregnancy and all effects on a woman's body trimester wise. He knew this might happen, so he asked the chef to prepare some fish soup for her.

Finally, Huian didn't find that nauseating and quickly gobbled it down. Shin was beside her the whole time, carefully watching and observing her. Her complexion looked better than before.

He sighed in relief.

"Are you feeling okay now?" His face was marred in concern.

Huian chuckled and pinched his cheek. "I am fine, Shin. You don't have to worry so much."

"I cannot help it."

On the other side, Liang Xiao Dan excitedly pinched his arm. "Zou Zou! Did you see that? Just look at them! Doesn't the air feel so different between them? I am sure something is going on!"

Liang Zou was also just as excited. "Ah, did our son finally find a girlfriend? Was Huian the one he wanted to introduce to us?"

"Of course, she must be the one! They are giving this lovey-dovey and bubbly feeling. I can even see flowers blooming! Ah, I am dying to talk to them right now!"

"Patience Xiao Dan. Once we go back, we will thoroughly interrogate Shin until he spills out everything," he seriously nodded. "That rascal. How dare he hide such a huge thing from us till now? He should have said so before!"

She pouted. "Ah, I cannot wait."

Xiang Qingge got the same feeling as the Liang couple when she saw Huian and Shin together.

She asked, "Wei. Do you think something is"

Xiang Wei slowly nodded. "I feel so too. But QinggeShin is Nana's brother. Do you think it would be okay?"

"I understand. But everything is fine now. I was concerned about the same thing, but as long as they are happy, what else do we want? Shin is a good man. I can see that they like each other. That's what matters."

"What if the Liang family objects?"

"I am sure they won't. Not only Nana, but her whole family is really good and kind-hearted. I didn't see them uncomfortable because of Huian during this whole time. Everybody has let go of the past, Wei."

Xiang Wei sighed and nodded. "You are right. And this time, our daughter will be finally happy. I hated to see her alone. I knew it was killing her, but I couldn't do anything. If Shin could give her that happiness, then I don't want anything else."

Her gaze rimmed in tears, and she gently smiled. "En. Huian has finally found her own happiness."

At the end of the day, as the sun set in the horizon, Jinhai and Nana were walking on the beach, strolling the wheeler with them and with their hands intertwined. Jian and Nian were giggling and enjoying their time.

The beautiful sun cast a golden glow on the water. The sky had turned orange-red and cold wind kissed their cheeks that fluttered their hair with it. The soft sand beneath their feet made them feel as if they were walking on a bed of cotton.

They went near the shore, and the cold waves washed on their feet. Nana splashed some water with her legs, laughing in bliss and joy. Jinhai chuckled and joined her. They played in the water like little kids for a long time. Another small wave washed towards them, and Nana bent to pick something up.

"I found a sea shell! Will be there be in a pearl in it?" she curiously asked, examining it in her palm.

Jinhai laughed. "These shells do not have pearls in them."

She pouted. "Ah"

"I can give you one-"

"No, please," she immediately stopped him, "Don't spend money on buying me a pearl. You have already bought the whole island. Jinhai. You spend too much on me," she helplessly sighed.

"So stingy."

"Shut up."

Jinhai pinched her cheek. "I am earning for my lovely wife. Who would I spend it on if not for you? Don't worry. We have lots and lots of money. A pearl wouldn't make us poor."

""

Nana took some water in her hands and splashed it on him.

"Hahaha, you are all wet, Jinhai."

"And so do you," he threw some of it on her too.

Jian and Nian grumbled in complaint.

Nana laughed. "We will all play together again in the sea when you two are a little more grown up. Now, you will only catch a cold."

"Baaaaaaaaa." They still seemed dissatisfied.

Tired from playing to their heart's content, Jinhai and Nana held hands and started taking a long walk along the shore. As they walked, Nana looked behind her. "Look, Jinhai. Our footprints."

Jinhai warmly gazed towards the sand. Her small footprints beside his large ones melted his heart. "En. They look cute."

He gently pulled her face and kissed his forehead.

Nana said, "But they will be washed away with the next wave."

Jinhai smiled. "The footprints will not be there, but we will always be together just like this, holding hands and walking beside each other until the end. Do you see, Nana? We made these prints together as we walked, and the sea will wash them away with it together, too. Just like how we promised our love for each other."

Nana's eyes watered a little.

"The waves will take away our footprints, but for the rest of my life, I will never let you go away from me."

Nana smiled and asked, even though she knew the answer, "Why?"

Jinhai gently kissed her lips. "Because I simply love you."
