"Qian'er!" Tao Tian didn't expect that just because he wanted to leave in silence, he would still alarm others.

"Why are you here?"

"I say, you're being too rude!" Lin Qian'er crossed her hands on her waist and said while gasping for breath, "You're going to leave but you didn't tell me!"

"Qian'er, actually, I … "I just …" Tao Tian wanted to explain, but he couldn't find a suitable excuse.

"Alright, stop explaining. Since you're already leaving, will I still blame you for anything? Here, I made you a green tea cake in the morning. Have some on the way." Lin Qian'er was still breathing heavily, with one hand she handed over a Tupperware box.

"Qian'Er, I'm just leaving for a while. I'll be back soon." Tao Tian pursed his lips and took the box.

"An An, hurry up and let your godmother take another look, your mommy is really something. If it wasn't for elder sister Qiong telling me about it at work today, I wouldn't even know about it." Although Lin Qian`er's tone was full of rebuke, her hands were tightly holding An Xi. She reluctantly kissed his chubby face.

"Godmother, my Mommy said we will be back soon. Don't miss An'an too much." An'an had a very obedient look on her face.

"Alright, alright, alright. I knew you were the most obedient. Go, follow your mommy." Lin Qian'er put down her safety, patted his little butt and said.

"Good bye mother, good bye elder sister Ning Tian!" Anthea waved her chubby little hands goodbye to the two women.

"Goodbye, An Xin! Take good care of Auntie, take good care of An An, and take good care of yourself!" Ye Ning Tian loudly said.

"That's right, An Xin. Listen to Miss Ye!" Lin Qian'er shouted.

Under the reluctant gazes of the crowd, Tao Tian carried An An and entered the security checkpoint together with Auntie Zhong. He boarded the plane …

As the plane slowly took off, all sorts of feelings welled up in Tao Tian's heart. She thought that she would never leave this land, but in the end, she had left in this manner. She thought that her brother would always be by her side.

The moment the plane flew into the sky, Tao Tian slowly closed his eyes, "Big brother, I'm right next to you. Did you feel me?" "I won't forget my promise. Remember, wait for me to come back …"

The moment his feet touched the ground of Yan City, Tao Tian felt that it wasn't real. He hadn't felt it for a long time, but the familiar smell that came from his face was mixed with a sense of unfamiliarity.

"An An, look, this is where Mommy, Uncle, and Grandma grew up." As the taxi passed by, it was brightly lit, showing off the temperament that a large city should have. Tao Tian pointed to a passing scenery as he spoke to An An.

"Mommy, there are a lot of lights here. The nights are the same as the day." Since An An had come from S City to such a bustling city, naturally, everything was fresh.

"Driver, why is it so lively here? I remember it only happens during major banquets." After spending the night in Paris, Tao Tian's heart skipped a few erratic beats. Seeing the crowd that was walking in and out, Tao Tian asked with a puzzled expression.

"Miss, you are not from outside. Tomorrow is the Lei Clan's Eldest Young Master, Ai Hui's wedding. It will be held here, and tonight, the banquet will be held." The taxi driver said with a laugh, "Well, many of my buddies are waiting there for customers."

"Tomorrow?" Tao Tian mumbled to himself. That's good too. He didn't have any room to catch his breath in one go.

No one recognized her and Auntie Zhong when they got out of the hotel. The city was changing with each passing day, moving at an alarming speed. It was easy to forget someone.

After everything was settled, Anthea fell into a deep sleep. She was still a child after all. Along the way, her curiosity towards new things had been reduced to exhaustion.

"Yao Yao, after you're done showering, you should also sleep," Auntie Zhong turned around and said to Tao Tian, "I'll go find a house tomorrow. Staying at a hotel is not a small expense." Auntie Zhong said.

"Yes, Aunt Hui, you should go to bed early as well." Tao Tian agreed, but his eyes were glued to the TV news report about Lei Zichen and Irene's wedding.

"Tomorrow morning at ten. Very good, Irene. I will definitely give you an unforgettable wedding." After carefully studying it for a while, she confirmed that she understood the functions of this device very well. Only then, did she take a bath and go to sleep. She had to give herself enough mental strength in order to have enough experience to deal with tomorrow's battle.

"Yao Yao, are you unable to sleep?" After extinguishing the light in the room, Auntie Zhong could still hear the sounds of Tao Tian constantly moving his body. She asked with concern.

"Yeah, I can't fall asleep in another place." Tao Tian said with a trace of weariness in his voice.

"Auntie knows, you are thinking about tomorrow. Child, take advantage of your youth and do whatever you want. Don't wait until you are old and regret it." Auntie Zhong said meaningfully.

"And you say that it's a different place, but this is your homeland." Auntie Zhong corrected with a smile.

"It's also mine. I didn't expect to be able to return after hiding for so many years." Auntie Zhong sighed with emotion, "You can't hide from me. Child, go to bed early. Tomorrow, you have a lot of important things to do." Auntie Zhong comforted him gently.

"Yes, Aunt Hui, you should go to bed early as well." Tao Tian obediently closed his eyes.

A dreamless night …

The next morning, Tao Yao woke up early. After washing her face and rinsing her mouth, she stood in front of the mirror and carefully examined herself. Her pale, bloodless face took out her complete set of cosmetics.

He took out the clothes he had prepared earlier, a long white dress, a thick shawl, and a pair of beige high heels. After everything had been prepared, Tao Yao kissed An An, who was still sleeping, and left.

The entire Yan City was shrouded in the morning fog, the water was hazy, and the wet moss was growing pure in the fog. At this moment, the world seemed so calm and tranquil. The cool wind lifted her long skirt, and the morning mist filled her mind with the damp smell of the story. Looking at the alleyway at the corner, a gust of autumn wind blew past, blocking out the time that passed under the eaves.

Time was a little cold. The distant past was soaked in the spring water. The autumn wind blew by, washing away the lead. It was bright and clear. I thought that after experiencing life, I had a taste of the world's fireworks, should bear the burden of the vicissitudes brought to us by the years. However, Fleeting Time was clearly unharmed, and he was completely unharmed. It was just that the city, which had promised an end to the world, was becoming thinner and thinner in the morning mist. The smell that assaulted us was the same as before, and the person we were waiting for was no longer by our side.

Tao Tian's steps seemed heavy, and within the familiarity of the road, it seemed exceptionally strange.

He finally understood that there were some paths that one could only walk on. Those who had once been invited to travel together in the rainy season would eventually leave at one of the crossings. On the red dust, walking alone, the green loli brushed the lapels of clothes, the green clouds wet promise. The mountain and the water can forget each other, and the day and the moon can have nothing to do with each other. At that time, there was only one person's happiness and happiness, and one person's happiness.

She did not know what her purpose was. Maybe she wanted to stop their wedding, but this woman was not worthy of Lei Zichen's love, so what about her? After today's journey, perhaps she had also lost the chance to live with Lei Zichen, so what? Her hatred had already filled her heart, and other than revenge, she could not think of any other reason for her to live in this world.

Tao Tian wandered alone outside the Paris gates for a long time. He held onto the bag in her hands tightly. Inside, there was also vital evidence of her, as well as a ring that could prove everything to Lei Zichen …

After an unknown period of time, 'bang, bang, bang', a deafening sound of gunfire rang out, and the Rolls-Royce that Lei Zichen and Irene rode slowly drove to the entrance of Paris that night.

Reporters who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward in an attempt to get the headlines.

Tao Tian coldly stared at the noisy crowd. The more people there were, the more interesting this show would be …

The two of them walked into Paris that night, escorted by a crowd of security guards. Tao Tian slowly walked into the banquet hall, not being noticed by anyone.

He suddenly felt that he was a little ridiculous. Today, he could only lurk at his ex-husband's wedding as a spectator, and he had once possessed such a grand wedding. The final outcome was more like a dream.

The banquet hall was decorated entirely in pink and gold, with a long red carpet that extended all the way down to the stage. There was a layer of pink rose petals, and the flashing lights all over the place made the atmosphere look very appropriate. Tao Tian couldn't help but feel enlightened, as the scenes from the past once again flooded his heart, and in the end, he didn't let go of the man who was about to become the groom.

"Alright, everyone be quiet for a moment. Thank you for attending Mr. Lei Zichen's and Miss Irene's wedding. Now, let me announce the official start of the wedding ceremony!" As the male host announced this, all the lights focused on the main door at the side of the banquet hall. As the door slowly opened, Lei Zichen, dressed in a well-cut and fitting Ji Fanchen suit, slowly pulled Irene to the front of the stage. Irene, wearing a pure white Verawang princess' wedding dress, lowered her head and smiled as she and Lei Zichen appeared together in front of everyone.

"Sure enough, they are a pair." The host behind the newbie said with a smile as he began to announce the wedding vows.

The host continued to blabber on. Tao Tian wouldn't listen to him and continued to look for the best position and movement method.

Under the light, Tao Yao could see Lei Zichen's face. The handsome face that used to haunt her had given her too much joy and sorrow. Now, they had met again on his wedding day. The distance between them was only one stage, but it seemed more like thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers. In the end, she had become someone who destroyed other people's wedding. No one could escape from the carving of time.

Lei Zichen's expression was a bit forced, unlike Irene's smiling face, which he could not bear to listen to. He lifted his head to look around, and all of a sudden, he saw Tao Tian's beautiful face, which was decorated with makeup. The exquisite makeup couldn't cover her pretty face, Lei Zichen could clearly recognize her, how was this possible? Could it be that he was seeing things!? He looked in that direction again, but Tao Tian was already nowhere to be seen. Everything was just a dream, and the person beside him was the one he had to marry and spend the rest of his life with. Lei Zichen laughed at himself in his heart.

"Fine, Miss Irene, are you willing to marry Mr. Lei Zichen, regardless of how poor or wealthy you are, to live the rest of your life without changing?" The host turned to look at the two.

"I do." Irene answered without hesitation. She had already waited far too long for this day, how could she not be willing?

"Then, Mr. Lei Zichen, are you willing to marry Miss Irene, regardless of how poor or wealthy she is?"

"I... "I do." Lei Zichen replied shamelessly.

"Does anyone object to their union?" According to the procedures, the host turned around to look at the guests and asked loudly.

"Of course, I have my objections …"
