Chapter 456: Chapter 456: A Surprising Will Appears
In her hand, she also had a matching magic wand made of diamonds.
The crystal shoes on her feet, although made of broken diamonds, were extremely rare, as few people would embed diamonds on shoes, let alone such a large number of broken ones.
He Xing remembered how stunning Fu Han looked on that day, like a fairy descending to earth. As she walked step by step down the stage holding her grandfather’s hand, He Xing clearly heard his own heart pounding loudly, like beating drums.
Yet, the happiest moment of He Xing’s life was not then, but about an hour after that moment.
Elder He publicly expressed his fondness for Fu Han on stage, saying that in his heart, Fu Han was his own granddaughter. He beckoned Fu Han to the stage, asking her tenderly, "Xiaohan, do you like the birthday dinner Grandpa prepared for you?"
The bright lights shone on Fu Han, and her face, bathed in light without a single flaw, glowed transparently like a sprite.
Fu Han’s lively eyes scanned the crowd, and when she saw He Xing, she smiled; He Xing couldn’t recall if he had smiled back, but even now, he only remembered how mesmerizing Fu Han looked at that moment.
Then Fu Han’s youthful voice chimed in, "Grandpa, can all my wishes come true?"
Elder He’s smile deepened, his confidence as a seasoned businessman evident, as he replied in a deep yet slow voice, "As long as it’s within my power, I will surely grant it."
He Xing, watching from below the stage, saw it clearly. Fu Han’s eyes shone like black pearls when she heard this, and she excitedly looked at Elder He, "Grandpa, I want to marry He Xing. Can you agree to this?"
Elder He was somewhat surprised. His gaze shifted between Fu Han and He Xing. Based on He Xing’s understanding of Elder He, the surprise wasn’t about the request Fu Han had made, but that it was Fu Han who had made it.
His surprise lasted less than two seconds, then a smile filled Elder He’s face, "Of course, I can." Then, holding the microphone, Elder He announced to the audience, word by word, "I declare, from today onwards, Fu Han is not only my granddaughter but also my future granddaughter-in-law."
Thunderous applause erupted. He Xing didn’t smile but simply watched Fu Han on the stage from afar. Fu Han was also looking at him; she wasn’t smiling. Her face turned bright red, a mix of excitement and shyness.
A smile, like tree roots spreading silently through the soil, began to creep across He Xing’s face. His heartbeat accelerated, almost leaping out of his throat.
At that time, He Xing had recently joined He Group. Many people said he was a pampered young master, born with a silver spoon in his mouth but lacking capability.
He Xing bristled with irritation internally. Blessed with the most radiant youthful looks, he forced himself to appear mature and would never let his smile show. He was saddled with the nickname of the stern-faced young master. At his worst, he had forgotten what expression represented a smile, and even now, He Xing rarely smiled.
He remembered the day of Fu Han’s eighteenth birthday. Xia Guoxiong had brought along Xia Ning, who wasn’t yet of age, dressed up like a doll.
But when He Xing and Fu Han’s engagement was confirmed, Xia Ning, crazed, tried to rush the stage. Xia Guoxiong’s fear of Elder He still lingered, so he dared not let Xia Ning disrupt the wedding Elder He had arranged. Thus, he firmly held Xia Ning back.
Even so, He Xing frowned, and when he turned his head, he met Fu Han’s eyes. The brightness in her eyes had visibly dimmed, as if she had suffered an immense blow.
At the time, He Xing didn’t understand why, but now, time had passed, and it suddenly dawned on him. Perhaps Fu Han had thought that he didn’t agree to their arranged marriage, and she must have suspected Xia Ning was the reason.
He Xing slapped his forehead, lamenting his own obtuseness in matters of the heart. If he could have understood Fu Han’s feelings earlier, if he had paid more attention, could the situation have been different?
No wonder that night, after the birthday party was over and He Xing presented the carefully prepared crystal globe to Fu Han, she was not as happy as he had expected.
He Xing caressed the cold crystal globe, flicked the switch on its base, and the two little figures inside started to dance. In the air, glitter substituted for snowflakes, creating an incredibly beautiful scene.
He remembered what Fu Han said that day, "He Xing, I know you might not be happy, but in this life, I will marry no one but you, and you can marry no one but me."
After declaring this with a fierce stance and her hands on her waist, Fu Han immediately blushed, took the birthday gift from He Xing, and ran off without looking back.
He Xing didn’t expect that the little girl who always hovered around him could say such things. He was both surprised and delighted, and in the moment, he said nothing, letting Fu Han leave.
The next day, everything went back to normal. Fu Han obediently went to school, and He Xing continued to work at He Group in an orderly fashion. As if they had an unspoken agreement, neither of them mentioned the incident again.
It was only He Xing who, whenever girls confessed to him, would tell them he was already engaged, and that he would be married in two years.
Indeed, on the day Elder He arranged the engagement between He Xing and Fu Han, He Xing didn’t sleep all night. He had already planned his future with Fu Han, deciding that they would get married once Fu Han reached the legal age in two years, and then they would have children, ideally one boy and one girl. He even thought of the children’s names.
With these thoughts, He Xing moved the crystal globe away. He wasn’t mistaken—there was indeed a piece of paper underneath the globe, a very ordinary piece of paper that looked like it was torn off hastily.
He Xing’s upbringing told him not to touch others’ belongings without permission, but that ordinary piece of paper seemed to exert a magical force, compelling He Xing’s hand to uncontrollably pick it up.
After unfolding the paper, familiar delicate handwriting appeared before him. He only glanced at it and was stunned. This... this was actually a letter of last will written by Fu Han.
Moreover, this letter was addressed to He Xing, but he could swear this was the first time he saw it. He had no idea of its existence before now.
His heart began to race uncontrollably, and before looking through the content of the letter, he glanced at the date it was written. It was a letter from a year ago, during the time Fu Han was traveling in Antarctica. Back then, he had entrusted Bai Wei with the task of keeping an eye on Fu Han. Bai Wei hadn’t noticed anything unusual about Fu Han’s behavior.
