On the way back home, BaiLuoYin asked GuHai, "Does your dad know about us getting married?"

"I already told him." GuHai's expression immediately sank, "If he wanted to attend, he'll attend. If not, then forget about it. Regardless, he already said that he won't interfere with my business anymore. I don't have any expectations of him, just so long as he doesn't create any trouble on our wedding day, that's all that matters."

BaiLuoYin stayed silent for a while. Then he lightly said, "Shouldn't you visit him once before we get married? If you don't go, he'll think you don't care about him as a father."

"I've never cared about what he thinks." GuHai's expression is a bit solemn.

BaiLuoYin's eyes are gloomy, concealing his true emotions.

After a moment of cold silence, GuHai again says, "I used to care a lot about what he thinks, but right now, I'm just utterly disappointed. I've learned my lessons. I'm not going to take my warm face and put it next to his cold ass again."

"Actually, I just get the sense that he doesn't know how to express himself."

"Don't help him say kind words." GuHai's tone is very heavy, "After all these years, haven't you learned your lesson too? How did you treat him? And how did he treat you? Even if you didn't join the military, you are his stepson; he should at least show that he cared for you, even if it was just for a little bit, right? But look at his deplorable behavior, it's like the entire world owed it to him."

The more GuHai talked, the angrier he got. He violently slapped his hands on the steering wheel once.

Even though BaiLuoYin didn't want to say anything, there are some words that he felt must be said.

"Don't you want to have someone from your 'Gu' family at your own wedding?"

GuHai is silent.

"If you had wanted it to be this way, we could've gotten married nine years ago, doesn't matter if we don't have anyone's approval, doesn't matter if we don't get anyone's blessings. Just as long as we are happy, then it's fine. Do you think it is meaningful to do it this way? If this way makes you satisfied, then why do we need to get married? Aren't we happy just living like we do now?"

"What you said made sense." GuHai readily admitted that it was his original intention to have everyone's blessing. "But unfortunately, someone would not accept us, what could we do? Do we need to keep waiting for him?"

BaiLuoYin lowered his eyes and took out a cigarette, lighting it.

GuHai's emotions eventually calmed down. He turned to looked at BaiLuoYin and suddenly felt a bit pained.

"Is this making you sad?" He reached out a hand to tenderly touch BaiLuoYin's cheeks.

BaiLuoYin shook his head and quietly responded, "I'm fine."

"Okay, let's not talk about him anymore. The more we talk, the more depressing it is. Let's talk about something happy. Did check out our wedding venue yet? "

"No, I don't even know the location yet."

"Let's go check it out."
