Chapter 287 The Grand Finale
Chapter 287 The Grand Finale
Song Qiao walked to Yun Miao's side, helped her up and said, "Mom, we saw Dad in Yunnan. He said he wanted to see you, so we came back together."
Song Qiao didn't mention Lu Mingxuan's injury; this was something the two of them had agreed upon.
Upon hearing this, Yun Miao turned her back to Xie Changgui and said, "Let him go. I don't want to see him."
Lu Mingxuan walked to her side and put his arm around her shoulder: "Mom, Dad has explained everything to me about what happened back then. He had no choice but to leave you."
"What could he possibly have to do? He just looked down on me because I was uneducated and grew up in the mountains."
Xie Changgui slowly walked to Yun Miao's side, holding the flowers, tears streaming down his face: "Yun Miao, I wronged you back then. Can you give me a chance to explain?"
"No need! You should just leave."
Yun Miao kept her back to Xie Changgui. Seeing this, Song Qiao said, "Mom, let bygones be bygones. After all, you and Dad were husband and wife. Give him a chance to apologize!"
Since Song Qiao had said so, Yun Miao remained silent for a moment before saying, "Come in!"
Xie Changgui, holding the bouquet of flowers, followed Yun Miao into the courtyard.
Before he could even admire the luxurious villa, an old man walked out of the door.
"You must be Mr. Lu?"
Xie Changgui walked over and bowed deeply: "Thank you for raising Mingxuan and educating him to be so outstanding!"
"You are... Xie Dan?"
Lu Wenguang, leaning on his walking stick, stared at Xie Changgui and asked.
"I am Xie Changgui, sir. I... thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? You've been gone for thirty years. How dare you bother Xiao Miao? Go away, you're not welcome here!"
Seeing this, Song Qiao quickly went to Lu Wenguang's side: "Grandpa, don't get excited. Now that they're here, let's go inside and talk."
Lu Wenguang glared angrily at Xie Changgui, snorted, and went into the room.
"Come in!"
Yun Miao said this. She had just seen her master's angry expression and wanted him to finish speaking so that they could leave Jade Mountain as soon as possible.
Xie Changgui looked at Yun Miao's transformation as if in a dream. The mountain girl from back then was now an elegant and dignified middle-aged woman, as if she had become a completely different person.
Looking at her, Xie Changgui felt a surge of emotion: "Yunmiao, these flowers are for you."
Xie Changgui handed over the flowers in his hand.
"I don't want it. Flowers are for people you like. I'm not someone you like, so there's no need to send them."
Xie Changgui still held it up and said, "That's not how it is. These words represent my apology to you over the years, and at the same time, they are my blessing. I wish you a future as beautiful as a flower."
"I don't need you to live as well as flowers."
Xie Changgui also saw that she was doing just as well without him.
Lu Mingxuan whispered a reminder: "Mom! My dad has come all this way, you have to give him a chance."
Yun Miao looked up at Lu Mingxuan, her eyes showing disappointment for the first time: "Who told you to bring him here?"
"Mom! Can you let Dad explain why he left you back then before you make a decision?"
Lu Mingxuan took the flowers from Yun Miao's hands and helped her into the room.
In the living room, Xie Changgui sat on the nanmu sofa opposite Lu Wenguang and recounted the incident from thirty years ago. Yun Miao listened quietly, and the resentment in her heart slowly dissipated as he recounted his experience.
After all, they had been husband and wife, so she finally gave him a chance to apologize and accepted the bouquet of flowers.
“Kid, I heard from my granddaughter-in-law that you are now the local official in Kangli Town, and you’re doing a good job. Remember that. I can forgive you, but that doesn’t mean Xiao Miao can forgive you.”
Upon hearing that Lu Wenguang had forgiven Xie Changgui, he immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Lu, rest assured, Mingxuan will always be your grandson. You raised him with great care and hardship, and I will respect his wish to stay in Yushan to take care of you."
Upon hearing this, Song Qiao stood up and said, "Mom, you and Dad have a good talk. I'll go cook."
Xie Changgui looked at Yun Miao and said, "Could you show me around this mountain?"
Miao Yun glanced at him, then silently walked out of the living room.
Upon seeing this, Lu Mingxuan followed Song Qiao into the kitchen, saying, "I'll make dinner for you!"
Just as the two were about to start cooking, Lu Wenguang's voice came from the living room to the kitchen: "Mingxuan, Qiaoqiao, come here!"
The two returned to the living room, and Lu Wenguang, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at them and asked, "Your dad and mom Wei are divorced. Did he tell you?"
Lu Mingxuan suddenly remembered receiving a call from Lu Xinjun on the way, saying, "My dad didn't tell me. He called me an hour ago and said we should come back together. I think I should come back soon."
"Alright! You two go and get ready. Your mom will probably have to chat with Xie Dan for a while longer."
"Okay, Grandpa, we'll go get ready."
Xie Dan followed Miao Yun to the outside of the villa and looked at another villa next to it: "There's another family across the way. Are your two families the only ones living on this mountain?"
"No! It's just me and my master. Both villas were bought by my master. He said he would give one to me."
Xie Dan couldn't help but smile: "Yun Miao, the way you are now compared to the past is absolutely true, like a phoenix rising from the ashes!"
Yunmiao defaults.
"Over the years, my master has nurtured me, transforming me from an illiterate village girl into someone who can now prescribe medicine for myself!"
Xie Dan looked at Yun Miao with admiration: "I've heard that there's a reclusive divine doctor and a divine nun in Jiangcheng. Could it be you and your master?"
"Yes! Master is a divine physician, and I only have this title because I benefit from his influence!"
"Yunmiao, I wish you all the best in becoming an extraordinary woman."
Yunmiao had completely let go of the past and smiled, "Stay here for a couple of days, and I'll take you for a walk in the mountains!"
"Okay!"
Just as Xie Dan was answering, his phone rang. He took it out and answered the call: "Honey, I found Yun Miao. I'll video call you two!"
Yunmiao didn't expect Xie Dan to do this. She took the phone from her hand, wanting to see what his current wife looked like.
In the picture frame, a middle-aged woman of medium build and dignified composure appears: "Sister Yun, it's great to finally meet you. I heard about you two from Lao Xie, and I've been wanting to meet you for a while now. Why don't you come to Yunnan?"
Yun Miao smiled and said confidently, "When I have time, I can't leave here. Don't worry, I'll let him go back after he stays here for two days. After all, Mayor Xie is very busy!"
"Thank you, Sister Yun!"
As the two ended their call and were walking towards the villa, Lu Xinjun arrived in his car, got out, and took out a bouquet of flowers.
Seeing the two walk over, he said, "Xiao Miao, this must be Xie Dan, right? I just received a call from Mingxuan, and I already know the truth."
Xie Dan quickly extended her hand: "My name is Xie Dan. You must be Lu Xinjun?"
"I am! I am Mingxuan's father and Xiaomiao's brother. Here, Xiaomiao, these are flowers I bought for you."
Yunmiao took the flowers from Lu Xinjun and said, "Brother Xinjun, Mingxuan and Qiaoqiao are at home, let's go back!"
Lu Xinjun nodded, looking up at the red lanterns at the gate: "This year, we'll buy all the food we need and celebrate the New Year in Yushan!"
"Okay! There are still lanterns in the yard that haven't been hung up yet. You can hang them up later."
"I'll help too!"
Two years later, Song Qiao gave birth to a lovely baby boy, named Lu Fengchen. Later, Tong Yao was admitted to Imperial University, and Jiang Xiaoran disappeared without a trace.
Sometimes when Song Qiao thinks of this daughter, it feels like she's in a dream.
