CHAPTER 97: CHAPTER 97: MOM, FROM TODAY ONWARDS, I HAVE A HOME TOO.

The young girl in the shop enthusiastically came over to greet them: "Sir, are you buying flowers for your girlfriend?"

Lu Jinghan smiled politely: "Just get me three bunches of white chrysanthemums." He paused and added, "This is my wife, not my girlfriend."

The young girl looked apologetically at Han Xi: "I’m sorry, madam, really my apologies."

Now it was Han Xi’s turn to feel a bit embarrassed. What was this man being so serious about? With her hand held tightly by Lu Jinghan, she gave him a little pinch. Han Xi then smiled and said, "It’s okay."

Lu Jinghan quietly let go of Han Xi’s hand, and with his other hand held her, letting his arm rest on her slender waist.

Han Xi’s face turned slightly red as she looked up at him, leaning a bit into Lu Jinghan’s embrace.

Very quickly, the young girl had the flowers wrapped up. She came over holding the flowers: "Sir, your flowers are ready."

Lu Jinghan took the flowers, paid the bill, and then left with Han Xi.

After about an hour’s journey, the black Maybach car stopped in front of a cemetery in An City.

Coincidentally, Han Xi’s mother and Lu Jinghan’s parents were buried in the same cemetery. The two of them got out of the car and first went to Han Xi’s mother’s grave.

Han Xi bent down to place the flowers in front of the tombstone and looked at the photo of her mother, her eyes inevitably turning red: "Mom, I got married today."

Lu Jinghan bowed deeply to the tombstone, his deep eyes gazing at the photo: "Mom, this is our first meeting. I’m Lu Jinghan. From now on, I’ll take good care of Han Xi, never let her suffer, and certainly never bully her."

This was his promise to Han Xi’s mother as a man, and also to give Han Xi’s mother peace of mind.

Looking at the man beside her, Han Xi suddenly felt a sense of coming home. Her tears were already flowing like a flood, her voice choking with emotion: "Mom, from today on, I have a home too. Jing Han loves and cherishes me very much. You can be at ease now."

Lu Jinghan pulled Han Xi into his arms, raising his hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eye. Just now, Han Xi’s words of "from today on, I have a home too" made Lu Jinghan’s heart suddenly ache.

Thinking of how this girl used to live alone, Lu Jinghan just wanted to cherish her even more.

After paying respects to Han Xi’s mother, the two went to Lu Jinghan’s parents’ graves.

Placing two bunches of flowers in front of the tombstone, Lu Jinghan smiled lightly: "I’ve brought your daughter-in-law to see you, aren’t you satisfied?"

"Hello, mom and dad. I’m Han Xi."

Looking at the two people in the photos, Han Xi inexplicably felt very close, guessing that the two elders should like her.

Lu Jinghan squatted half on the ground, raised his hand to wipe the dust off the photo, his voice not as relaxed as before, seemingly tinged with sadness: "If only you were still here..."

Han Xi looked at the man squatting on the ground and suddenly realized that he too has his moments of vulnerability.

This made Han Xi irresistibly want to take good care of him, to accompany him in place of his parents.

When they came out of the cemetery, Lu Jinghan said that he had informed Old Master Lu about their marriage earlier that morning, and Old Master Lu insisted they must return to the old house for dinner that evening.

Han Xi agreed, feeling that getting married and going home to meet the elders was the right thing to do.

By the time the two drove back to the city, it was already noon. They hadn’t had breakfast because they were busy with certain activities in the morning, so Han Xi was already very hungry now.
