The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback

Chapter 543 - 544: Love Me

Yu Siqiao’s face remained impassive as he asked in a deep voice, "Why the sudden interest in doing this?"

"It’s not sudden," Mo Shu said naturally. "This is my own wedding after all; isn’t it normal for me to be involved in the planning?"

Hearing this answer, Yu Siqiao couldn’t quite describe the feeling in his heart. "Is that the only reason?"

"What else?" Mo Shu didn’t pick up on the faint loss in his words. "It’s just that I’m afraid your mom won’t agree."

These elders, they all seemed to prefer that she did nothing at all and just stayed home to nurture the fetus and have children.

"Indeed, she won’t agree."

In fact, Mrs. Xing Mengzheng’s idea was to delay the wedding a bit.

After all, Mo Shu’s health wasn’t great, and even with a month of rest, it was uncertain to what extent she could recover.

It was Yu Siqiao who had just spoken to Mo Shu and then called Mrs. Xing Mengzheng to keep the wedding date as is—keeping the ceremony as simple as possible. All Mo Shu needed to do was to be free to get married and go through the motions when the time came.

Yu Siqiao didn’t share these thoughts; he just looked at Mo Shu and asked her, "Do you have a specific wedding scene you want?"

A specific scene I desire...

Mo Shu thought for a moment and said, "As a child, I always dreamed of being an elf princess, with little flower fairies flying around my head, getting married in a lush green forest, with dwarves playing the wedding march, and then my Prince Charming coming to confess his love to me deeply..."

As she spoke, even Mo Shu laughed, "The wedding I dreamed of as a child was very fantastical but also quite absurd. Back then, I imagined marriage as a kind of love that defies the world, a love where we would elope, abandoning everything including our lives. It seemed so romantic at the time."

Yu Siqiao’s eyes grew deeper. "It is romantic," he paused before adding, "just naive."

Mo Shu chuckled, "I did say it was a childhood thought. As I grew up, I realized love isn’t always so passionate."

"Then, what is love like?"

"I think, the best kind of love is where we understand each other, respect each other, appreciate each other, grow together, and love each other. That would be very good."

When Mo Shu said this, her eyes shimmered with starlight, sparkling and bright, stunning and moving.

Yu Siqiao saw the longing and aspiration in her eyes.

With a smile in her eyes, Mo Shu asked back, "What about you?"

Yu Siqiao was silent for a moment before he said, "Love me."

Love him.

That was enough.

Mo Shu blinked at these brief words, "Is it that simple?"

Yu Siqiao looked at her intently, "Is it simple?"

"Of course, it’s simple. Of course, love is only love when both sides love each other. If even one side doesn’t love the other, then it’s not love."

"What is it then?"

"It’s unrequited love."

Suddenly, Yu Siqiao felt a bitter taste and let out a wry laugh, "Yes, unrequited love."

Mo Shu felt that he was a bit strange, but she didn’t dwell on it, turning her attention to the documents in front of him, "How much longer do you need to be busy?"

"A long time; you go back first."

"Are you facing some kind of trouble?"

"No."

"Is that so? I thought you seemed unhappy, like you’ve hit a snag with work," Mo Shu looked at him with lowered eyes, "then why are you unhappy?"

Mo Shu reached out and touched his frown, "Your eyebrows are all scrunched up."

Her tone, as if coaxing a child, was as intimate as it had always been.

Yet, the difference was stark and clear.

A sense of irritation inexplicably welled up in Yu Siqiao, and he grabbed her wrist, "Enough."

Mo Shu was startled.

Yu Siqiao pushed her hand away and, unable to meet her gaze, said, "Go back. I... am a bit busy."
