He felt an indescribable sense of guilt.
Yun Shishi was surprised by the progress of his recovery.
Ever since he was sent to the Gong family, she had been using video calls to communicate.
In the video, she could tell that Yun Yecheng was recovering very quickly. However, she did not expect his looks to recover by fifty percent. At least, after the skin grafting, some of his organs had regained their functions.
Although one could not say that his appearance had been completely restored, still, after some adjustments, it had exceeded her expectations.
More surprisingly, he now could speak coherently. After a few surgeries to his vocal cords, he could speak clearly again.
Yun Shishi was pleasantly surprised. She hugged Gong Jie, too excited to speak.
Gong Jie smiled. "Sister, I promised you that I'd do my best. Since I've given my word, I naturally have to fulfill my promise!"
"Thank you, Xiao Jie!" She said from the bottom of her heart.
"Don't you think it's too formal to thank me?"
Gong Jie had returned to the country to help her prepare for her wedding of course.
Initially, Mu Yazhe had invited the media to cover the entire wedding event, but Yun Shishi had requested that it not be too ostentatious. However, because it involved guests attending the wedding, and most of them were people of status, especially someone like Xiao Jie, they could not be exposed to the cameras.
Furthermore, there were many politicians, important figures, as well as nobles from various countries. It would simply cause too much of a hassle if they were to be exposed to the media.
She wanted to keep a low profile.
Youyou, who was observing all these from the sideline, said, "You're destined to not be able to keep a low profile when you marry a perfect man like Daddy!"
Lu Jinyu and Jiang Shen were tickled and burst into laughter.
"Youyou, you've hit the nail right on the head!!"
Naturally, Mu Yazhe was pleased to hear his own son praising him; as a father, he was secretly proud!
Yun Shishi chided the boy, "Youyou, Mommy is being serious here! If there are more than a dozen media outlets filming this wedding, Mommy will be nervous!"
"Mommy, at least you've seen the world! You've been to Fashion Week before. When you were filming, there were so many sets of cameras pointing in your direction, but you never seemed nervous!"
"This is different!"
"How is that different?"
Yun Shishi reiterated, "A wedding is different from filming! If filming goes wrong, we can do a retake, but when we get married, we can't make any mistakes. It's not like we can do a retake! It takes place only once in a lifetime, so of course I'm nervous."
Gong Jie said, "Speaking of which, I'm very curious as to why I haven't been invited to be best man."
Youyou replied, "Because Daddy is afraid that uncle will cause a ruckus."
Then he added, "Best man is the most strenuous and unrewarding job. Uncle, I'm sure you can't take the hardship."
Little Yichen chimed in, "That's right. The best man is the groom's slave. Uncle, are you really willing?"
Little Yichen said, "It's not a big deal to mess things up. However if uncle regrets it halfway and can't bear for Mommy to marry Daddy, and if you were to run away taking Mommy with him, what would Daddy do?"
The two little guys bantered back and forth.
Yun Shishi giggled.
Gong Jie's face turned ashen. "If I couldn't bear it, would I have specially rushed back to the country? For Yueyao's sake, I wouldn't ruin the wedding."
He was not so pretentious.
He had silently accepted the fact that Mu Yazhe was his brother-in-law.
Yun Shishi added, "The main reason is that the best man can't be too handsome. Otherwise, if he steals the limelight from the groom, she'll be head over heels for him!"
