To spend Halloween abroad with his first love, Pei Shu had his uncle take his place at our wedding.
“Weiwei, if you love me, can’t you just put up with this? People had stand-in weddings in ancient times, too! You should be grateful I didn’t get a rooster to marry you!”
“It’s just a wedding ceremony! Ah Xue would miss Halloween!”
That night, he packed his things and flew to London.
He took snowy wedding photos with his first love.
I did as he said, married his uncle Pei Jin, packed up that very night, and moved into our new home.
Later, Pei Shu returned to the country and came to fetch me with his first love.
I laughed, wicked and unrestrained.
“I’m your aunt-in-law, not your mother. What’s the point of taking me home to wait on me?”
