Chapter 182 The Two Remarry
When Chestnut Girl recounted her tortuous emotional journey to Su Yuning, Su Yuning couldn't help but frown, scolding her with a hint of disappointment: "Chestnut, don't you really realize that you yourself have some problems in this matter?"
Upon hearing this, Chestnut Girl was completely bewildered, as if lost in a fog. It took her a long time to come to her senses, and she stammered out, "I... what did I do wrong?"
Su Yuning, however, remained calm and explained methodically: "In previous years, you devoted all your attention to your family and valued it too much. As a result, you neglected your own growth and development. Moreover, you neither took good care of yourself nor dressed up carefully. In doing so, you created an opportunity for those other women to take advantage of you!"
Upon hearing this, Chestnut Girl's eyes were already brimming with tears, as pitiful as a pear blossom in the rain. She sobbed and asked, "Waaah... I know I was wrong now, so what should I do next? Am I supposed to continue to be just a normal friend with Gu Wanfeng?"
Seeing Chestnut Girl's heartbroken appearance, Su Yuning smiled with relief and asked softly, "Let me ask you first, deep down, is there still a place for Gu Wanfeng in your heart?"
Without even thinking, Chestnut Girl nodded without hesitation, "Of course! He's the only one I've ever loved. But after all these ups and downs, I really don't dare to have too many expectations for our relationship anymore..."
Su Yuning slowly reached out and gently placed her hand on Chestnut Girl's slightly thin shoulder, saying earnestly, "My dear, if you still harbor feelings of longing and attachment for him deep in your heart, then why not try making some changes? First, you can start with self-improvement. Read more beneficial books and continuously absorb knowledge; at the same time, actively learn a new skill and strive to become more and more excellent. As for your appearance, don't neglect it either. You can diligently study makeup techniques and use makeup to showcase your most beautiful side; and then stick to regular exercise to sculpt a perfect figure and regain your former charm."
Upon hearing this, a bright light suddenly shone in Chestnut Girl's previously dull eyes, like a dazzling star suddenly illuminating the dark night sky. She asked, full of anticipation yet slightly apprehensive, "But... after doing this, will he really be able to accept me again?"
Su Yuning smiled gently, as tender and beautiful as a flower blooming in spring, and softly comforted him, "Don't worry, you just need to focus on taking good care of yourself, and leave the rest to me. I will definitely seize the opportunity and make clever arrangements so that he has the chance to witness these wonderful changes in you."
Time flew by, and a few days later, Su Yuning meticulously prepared and successfully hosted a lively party, specially inviting Gu Wanfeng and Chestnut Girl to attend. Amidst the laughter and chatter, Chestnut Girl arrived gracefully like an elegant white swan. Her makeup was exquisite yet understated, perfectly highlighting the soft contours of her features; her figure was tall and upright, exuding a unique elegance with every movement; especially her beautiful eyes, like a clear lake, sparkling with confident and determined light.
When Gu Wanfeng's gaze inadvertently fell upon the doorway, he was instantly captivated by the chestnut-scented girl. His eyes widened, hardly believing that the person before him was the same somewhat ordinary chestnut-scented girl from before. The one standing before him now had undergone a complete transformation, radiating an astonishing charm and brilliance.
Gu Wanfeng gazed at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure before him, his heart pounding uncontrollably. He took a deep breath and finally mustered the courage to slowly walk towards the woman who had captured his heart. Each step felt as light as walking on cotton, yet heavy, carrying a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.
When he walked up to the chestnut girl, his throat moved, and he said in a slightly dry voice, "You...you've changed so much." Although his voice was not loud, it sounded exceptionally clear at that moment.
Upon hearing this, Chestnut Girl's heart skipped a beat, and her already uneasy heart pounded even more wildly. She lowered her head slightly and replied in a voice barely audible, "It's all...it's all for you." After saying this, two blushes instantly rose on her cheeks, and she was too shy to look Gu Wanfeng in the eye.
Gu Wanfeng was taken aback at first, then a bright smile spread across his face, a smile as warm as the spring sun. He gently raised the corners of his mouth and said softly, "Actually, I've always regretted neglecting you back then. Now you've come back into my heart." As soon as he finished speaking, Chestnut Girl could no longer contain her excitement, and tears welled up in her eyes.
But in the next second, Chestnut Girl suddenly burst into laughter through her tears, blooming like a beautiful flower before Gu Wanfeng's eyes. The two gazed at each other silently, their eyes fixed on one another, everything around them seemingly insignificant. Time seemed to stand still, only their genuine affection filling the air.
Just then, Su Yuning and Ye Beichen, standing to the side, were deeply moved by the beautiful scene. They smiled at each other and then began to cheer in perfect unison. Su Yuning clapped her hands excitedly and shouted, "Together! Together! Together!" Ye Beichen echoed her, and the atmosphere became incredibly lively.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Gu Wanfeng slowly pulled a delicate ring from his pocket. He carefully held it in his palm, then, in front of everyone, knelt on one knee, gazing lovingly at Chestnut, and gently asked, "Shall we get back together? Chestnut, I love you!"
Looking at Gu Wanfeng kneeling before her, Chestnut Girl was overwhelmed with emotion, tears streaming down her face like a burst dam. She nodded frantically, choking back sobs as she replied, "Yes, yes, I promise you!" With that, Gu Wanfeng gracefully slipped the ring onto Chestnut Girl's slender finger. At that moment, the whole world seemed to shrink to just the two of them; a radiant glow of happiness enveloped them, illuminating their future path. The onlookers erupted in enthusiastic applause, offering their blessings for their reunion.
A week later, Gu Wanfeng and Chestnut Girl held their remarriage ceremony. Relatives and friends came to congratulate them. Mr. and Mrs. Gu were overjoyed, as their son and daughter-in-law being together again was a great joy for the whole family. The children in the family also jumped for joy, knowing that with their parents reconciled, they would receive even more care and love.
In the days after their marriage, Chestnut didn't slack off just because she had regained her position as the young mistress of the Gu family. Every day, she would get up early to read and learn new knowledge, and she would even drag Gu Wanfeng along to exercise. Looking at the energetic Chestnut, Gu Wanfeng's heart was filled with love.
One morning, sunlight filtered through the dappled leaves, casting dappled patterns on the long-forgotten courtyard of Chestnut Girl's house. Chestnut Girl happened to pass by and saw that the courtyard was overgrown with weeds, a scene of utter desolation. However, in that instant, a wonderful idea suddenly sprouted in her mind—to transform this abandoned courtyard into a small, vibrant, and lively garden!
The idea struck her immediately. Chestnut Girl excitedly ran to the market and carefully selected all sorts of flower seeds and tender green vegetable seedlings. Back home, she didn't hesitate to roll up her sleeves and personally step onto the land to begin her hard work.
At first, Gu Wanfeng disagreed with Chestnut Girl's decision to work so hard, feeling sorry that her delicate hands would become rough from farm work. But when he saw Chestnut Girl's focused and joyful expression, he was moved and finally decided to put aside his concerns and join in the courtyard renovation project.
As the days passed, with their combined efforts, the courtyard gradually took on a completely new look. Several months later, one day, as the first rays of dawn shone upon the earth, people were pleasantly surprised to find that the once desolate courtyard had been transformed into a vibrant, colorful world: delicate flowers vied for attention, displaying their magnificent petals; lush vegetables were neatly arranged, swaying gently in the breeze like little green sprites.
Chestnut Girl happily picked the fresh and delicious fruits and vegetables, then went into the kitchen to showcase her superb culinary skills, preparing a sumptuous and delicious meal for her family. As evening fell, the family gathered happily around the table, savoring the lovingly prepared food. Mr. and Mrs. Gu ate with gusto, praising the dishes repeatedly, saying they were a perfect blend of color, aroma, and flavor—truly the taste of happiness!
As night fell, countless stars twinkled across the vast night sky. Gu Wanfeng and Chestnut Girl walked hand in hand to the center of the courtyard, quietly gazing up at the brilliant starry sky. Gu Wanfeng gently embraced Chestnut Girl, saying tenderly, "Thanks to you, my dear, you've taught me to cherish every beautiful moment in life." Chestnut Girl raised her head slightly, her beautiful eyes as bright as stars. She smiled sweetly and softly replied, "Every day we've spent together is so precious. I believe countless more beautiful things await us in the future." With that, the two embraced tightly, lost in the tranquil and warm night.
