Looking at Guo Xuehua's anxious eyes, Yang Pojun was stunned. He asked with a trembling voice, "Xuehua … you … don't hate me?"
Guo Xuehua smiled and shook her head. "It's impossible to say that I don't hate you at all. When you wanted to kill Yang Chen, I even wanted to poison you to death … But a day as husband and wife means a lifetime of love. We've been together for so many years, and now that I've calmed down, I can't help but think of you. "
"Xuehua … I …" Yang Pojun's eyes were a little red. "I'm sorry, but I … I still can't be with you."
"Why?"
"Men are weird. I don't hate Yang Cheng now, but … I think Yang Cheng is the same as me. He doesn't want me to be by his side." Yang Pojun smiled. "I plan to accompany my father more in the future and teach in the military school when I'm free. I won't be going back after I retire from the army. "
Guo Xuehua wanted to say something, but she thought about it carefully. This might not be a bad thing. She nodded and said, "Alright, I'll travel between Beijing and Zhonghai in the future. When I'm free, I'll bring Lanlan to visit you. After all, you're that kid's grandfather."
"Grandfather …" Yang Pojun sighed. "I'm really old."
Guo Xuehua giggled. "You look like you're suffering from dementia."
Yang Pojun smiled awkwardly.
The autumn wind blew. The two of them stood at opposite ends of the pavilion in silence.
After a long time, Guo Xuehua ran her fingers through her hair and smiled. "If there's nothing else, I'll head over first. I don't know what's going on outside."
Yang Pojun nodded. Seeing that Guo Xuehua was about to leave, he called out again, "Xuehua."
"Huh?" Guo Xuehua turned around.
"I … I want to apologize. I've always doubted you …"
"I know." Guo Xuehua understood and smiled. "Have you always suspected that I've always put Ning Guangyao first because I liked Ning Guangyao back then? Did you think that I married you because I couldn't be with Ning Guangyao? "
"You … How did you know …" Yang Pojun was shocked.
"Silly … You always go against Ning Guangyao in front of me. Do you think I can't tell?" Guo Xuehua said helplessly, "Don't think too much about it in the future. We're already in our fifties. We've been through so many ups and downs for so many years. Don't you know me?
I, Guo Xuehua, it's not like no one wanted me in the past. Why didn't I look for someone close to me? Why did I choose a stranger like you? Back then, the Yang Family was in a precarious situation. If it wasn't for you, would I have looked for your identity? "
Yang Pojun was embarrassed. But now that the knot in his heart was resolved, he smiled sincerely as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.
The change of events was just like the good and bad relationship between a husband and wife. No one could predict what would happen in the next second.
Early in the morning, the whole of Hua Xia, even the whole world, was ready to see the Yang Family make a fool of themselves. But in the afternoon, everyone immediately realized that things were not as bad as they thought.
After his retirement, Yang Gongming made a rare appearance on the live broadcast screen. He slowly and methodically told the truth of the past.
Yang Gongming narrated in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. It was impossible for people to look at him with disdain.
It was the first time for Hua Xia that a descendant of a founding father, such a wealthy family, gave such a speech in front of the whole country and the whole world.
Such a frank attitude made the majority of the people lean towards the side of support. Especially the concept that there was no distinction between nobility and inferiority, and that heroes should not be questioned about their origins, it made the public feel that the Yang Family was closer to the people's hearts.
Since they had won a good reputation, the so-called situation of being deserted by family and friends would naturally not happen as the ill-intentioned people had expected.
Even more wonderful things were yet to come.
That afternoon, the oil price of the whole of Hua Xia was lowered by seven percent. When such a thing happened at a time when the oil price had been high, the attention of the whole country was quickly drawn to it.
Later, the neighboring countries that were in conflict with each other all made a gesture of retreat. They issued a series of documents to admit defeat and withdrew their respective fleets!
This matter was much more meaningful to the people of Hua Xia than the fact that Yang Gongming was the son of someone else!
For a moment, everyone shifted their attention away from the Yang Family, and this hot topic gradually faded away.
The one who made this series of plans behind the scenes was, of course, Yang Cheng.
It was actually relatively easy for those countries to issue some documents to admit defeat and withdraw their fleets. After all, there was enough deterrence, and those countries had essentially not suffered any losses.
On the contrary, the drop in oil price had made Yang Cheng spend a lot of money.
The whole country consumed billions of liters of oil every day. To maintain the low oil price for a while, it was impossible to do without spending tens of billions!
This money seemed a little excessive, but in Yang Cheng's view, it was nothing more than buying influence.
As soon as Yang Gongming finished the press conference, the national oil price dropped by seven percent. Even if everyone thought that it was nothing, it was inevitable that they would be involved!
This drop continued for a few days. For the Yang Family, this was tantamount to sticking a layer of gold paper on them.
The people did not care who gave birth to you or whose family you belonged to. As long as there was something tangible, it was a good thing.
Therefore, when Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and asked Ron to allocate the funds, he was quite determined.
However, when he spent the money, he hugged Lin Ruoxi and wailed that he was going bankrupt, and no one knew about it.
As for Yang Cheng's idea of writing his memoirs and making a movie, Yang Cheng assigned it to the people of Yan Jin Entertainment Company. He still hoped to make some money by making a movie.
While this matter was being forgotten, the wedding between the Li Family and the Tang Family, as well as Li Dun and Tang Xin, went ahead as scheduled.
Even though the Tang Family was not as powerful as before, they were still much stronger than the average second-rate family. Needless to say, the Li Family's status was almost unshakable.
Therefore, even though Tang Xin was the daughter of the Tang Family's branch family, it was enough to attract many people's attention.
On the day of the wedding, the Li Family's usual style was simple and elegant, but not extravagant.
Only those who were considered influential in Yan Jin were invited to the banquet. Most of the others were relatives of the Li Family. Ordinary second-rate families and ministers didn't have the chance to attend.
In the wedding hall of the State Guesthouse in Yan Jin, Tang Xin's father held the hand of Tang Xin, who was wearing a white wedding gown, and walked gently to Li Dun in a white suit.
Even though there weren't many people, the applause was very enthusiastic. After all, they had to show respect to the Li Family.
However, Tang Xin wasn't holding a fresh flower in her hand. Instead, she was holding a colorful ice cream cone. The guests were completely confused by this.
Only Yang Chen and a few others who were in the know felt that it was fresh and interesting, and also deeply touched.
Although Li Dun was wearing a white suit and was tall and strong, he still wore a black eye mask, which made him look out of place, but also special.
The moment the bride and groom looked at each other from afar, there was a mixture of emotions that only the two of them could clearly understand.
Along the way, everything that had happened in the past was like a dream or a smoke.
Before Lin Ruoxi came, she had asked Yang Cheng about the two of them. Even just listening to it, she felt that it wasn't easy. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but feel touched.
Not far away, Cai Ning, who came with her father, Cai Yuncheng, looked at Tang Xin with envy.
From a woman's point of view, even though Tang Xin had taken a detour, her ending was the one that all women yearned for the most.
She wanted to find a man who loved her more than she loved him, a man who could love her enough to forgive everything.
In comparison, even though she had bravely found her true love, she couldn't be like Tang Xin and have a wedding like this.
On the other hand, Tang Wan, who was attending the wedding with Tangtang and the other members of the Tang Family, was very open-minded.
At her age, Tang Wan didn't feel any regrets about getting to know Yang Cheng. After all, she didn't have much hope in the past.
Seeing that her beloved cousin, Tang Xin, was finally able to find happiness again, her face was filled with joy.
Before attending the wedding, Yang Cheng was conflicted about whether he should give Li Dun a suitable gift. But no matter how he thought about it, the Li Family couldn't possibly be poor, so buying a few rare treasures wouldn't make much sense.
In the end, it was Lin Ruoxi who reminded him that Yang Cheng prepared a gift, but the gift had to be given in private. This made Yang Cheng a little impatient in his seat …
