Perhaps, from the moment the accident took place, all of this had been destined .
. . .
"The bride and groom, please put on a wide smile . Marriage comes only once in a lifetime . "
In the Civil Administration office, the photographer from the photo studio was unaware of the situation and felt anxious when he saw the expressions on Yan Rusheng and Xuxu . He especially wanted to say that 'You look like you're here to attend a memorial service rather than a marriage registration' .
Exactly . The bride's eyes were red and swollen, and she was clearly overwrought . Obviously, she had bawled her eyes out .
As for the groom, he looked as if he'd just come out of an ice house . His expression was frozen still as if he was suffering from facial paralysis .
Furthermore, both of them were so distant from each other .
Marriage comes only once in a lifetime . . .
When Yan Rusheng heard this statement, he subconsciously raised his hand and placed it on Xuxu's shoulders .
His large and thick palm was warm to the touch, and her body stiffened awkwardly .
There were no changes to their expressions, and they remained distant . The photographer shook his head in disbelief . "Sigh . Let me remind you again . This is a wedding shoot . When I press the shutter, this image will be printed on your wedding certificate, and it will be there forever . "
He decided not to waste his breath anymore to persuade the couple to smile or to stand closer . So he aimed and press the shutter .
The camera flash flickered after which he signaled to Xuxu and Yan Rusheng with an 'OK' sign .
Before he could even retract his hand, a satisfied smile could be seen from the corners of his mouth . "This is more like it . You both look so good together, and you're even lovelier when you smile . "
The photographer lowered his head to look at the photo he'd taken of Xuxu and Yan Rusheng, all while sounding like a broken record .

Yan Rusheng and Xuxu were puzzled by the photographer's words .
Yan Rusheng only felt that he was such a nag and an eyesore .
It wasn't until they both received their marriage certificates that they fully understood the meaning .
It turned out that both of them happened to smile at the same moment .
This was because . . . this image would be printed on their marriage certificate forever .
Now bearing a different status, Xuxu showed up at Wang Daqin's funeral which was being held over three days . As the granddaughter-in-law, she knelt at the funeral hall together with Yan Rusheng for three days and three nights .
During these three days, she stared fixedly at Wang Daqin's portrait . It was as if she was replaying an old movie . Memories of grandmother—dating back to the day Xuxu was brought to the Yan's family—came flooding back to her mind .
Tears streamed down continuously .
Tears streamed down continuously .
Just before Wang Daqin's body was cremated, Xuxu could bear it no longer and collapsed .
She must have slept for a long time . The moment she opened her eyes, she felt as if the world was spinning . This uncomfortable feeling took a while to subside .
Where was she?
Staring at the room which looked familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar, Xuxu's head cleared up immediately . She sat up with a grunt and shook her head which was still spinning . Her gaze swept through the entire room once more .
Why was she lying on Yan Rusheng's bed?
"Grandmother?"
At the thought of Grandmother, she lifted the blanket and got down the bed, her feet bare . With a heavy head and a weakened body, she was in a state of disequilibrium and nearly took a tumble . She staggered a few steps before stabilizing herself .
At once, she opened the door and ran out, still barefooted .

"Grandmother . " She ran on and on towards the staircase . In the brightly lit hall, many people were seated on the sofa, and all were dressed in black .
Xuxu's heart sank to the floor . She held onto the staircase handrail to support herself and then sat on the stairs, motionless .
This is a dream . This is not a dream .
She tilted her neck and leaned her head against the metal railing . Her eyes were rapidly filled to the brim with tears once more .
Was Grandmother really gone?
"Xuxu . "
Mu Li's gentle and soothing voice could be heard coming from below .
