Soren held her hand more tightly, Elsa can feel the sweat in his hand. She looked up at him, his voice was a hint of excitement, "I don't know what Uncle Heather is going to say."
Heather took Susie's hand and smiled. "Susie and I went to get the certificate today. We got married legally."
"Uncle Heather!" Soren stood up and strode to Heather, who was a little shorter and thinner than him. He hugged Heather with a strong arm, and then turned around to hug his mother, "Mom!"
Her grandparents were also very excited, his grandma was wiping away her tears. "Good, good. This day I have been looking forward to for a long time. Now that Ren was married, Susie let me rest assured. We'll all be fine. "
When Soren returned to Elsa's side, his eyes were also slightly red. He said with a smile, "I and Elsa haven't prepared presents for you. Uncle Heather, I'm must drink with you tonight. Waiter, please give me a bottle of wine? "
The waiter came in quickly. "Sir, what kind of wine do you want?"
"We can take the red wine. Ren and Elsa will drive home later." Said Susie.
"No, we must drink white wine. It's such a happy thing. Mom, don't worry. I and Uncle Heather drink just a little. It's okay."
Soren picked up a small bottle of white wine and poured a glass of it for Heather. He said, "Uncle Heather, I should propose a toast to you as much as I can. I don't want to say anything else. I and Elsa hope that you and my mom will be better.."
Susie and Elsa drank juice, and Soren and Heather drank the white wine.
After a meal, the double happy event made everyone happy, especially the grandparents, their eyes were red and swollen.
Soren was in a good mood indeed. He drank too much. Ordinary the time was not early, the elders didn't allow him to drive back by himself. They were sent by the drive. Soren and Elsa can go home with grandparents. Heather asked his secretary to drive Soren's car back while he drove with Susie home.
When they arrived at home, Soren opened the door and Elsa was holding his arm and shoulders. He held her waist and explained, "I'm not drunk. It's just a little. I'm so happy today. "
He held her in his arms and placed his chin against her head. "I'm as happy as I was on my own wedding day."
Hearing that, Elsa's heart quivered slightly. On the wedding day, she had mixed emotions. But she hadn't expected that he was happy. There was a light smell of alcohol on him, which was not unpleasant but more manly in combination with his original masculinity. "Ren, sit down on the sofa. I'll make some tea for you," she said in a hot voice
"Don't go away." "Give me a hug," Soren said, holding her hand
He tightly held Elsa in his arms and made her almost out of breath. Soren said with a smile, "Uncle Heather has taken care of me and my mother for more than thirty years. Since I could remember, he was by my side and witnessed every step of my growth. I have already taken him as my father in my heart. Should I be happy that he is going to marry my mother? "
"Yes, it's worth it." Elsa answered. The deep affection that Heather showed to Susie, it' s a good thing to make people feel happy.
"Really? Are you happy, too, Elsa?" Soren asked in a low voice.
Elsa leaned against his chest. Hugged tightly by him, she could stand still even without using too much strength. This was a strong chest, a man she could trust. Her voice was a little heavy, "I'm happy, too."
"My mother brought me up without marriage. She had gone through a lot of difficulties and sufferings many troubles. I think she worth a true love." Soren said in a low voice again.
Elsa had understood the reason for the enmity between Soren and Fred Wang. Anyone wouldn't like such a father. She almost felt pity for his situation. She had a happy family. She couldn't imagine the indescribable missing of the father when he was not by her side. He must have suffered a lot in his childhood. Although he didn't need anything right now, Elsa's heart still ached a little. She wrapped her arms around his waist tightly, and responded to his weakness, whispering, "Ren."
"Elsa." He got close to her and whispered, "I like you call me that."
Perhaps he was a little drunk, so he looked a little bit impatient
Everything went on silently. When the ceremony was over, Elsa was drenched in sweat, as if she was just pulled out of water. Soren helped her calm down and gently called her name, "Elsa, Elsa, Elsa."
Again, she wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed back. It was then that she noticed that he was also sweating. They paid attention to saying with each other since they came back, and didn't open the air conditioner, so they were all sweating.
"Elsa." Soren said in a low voice.
Women were born to be troublesome with long hair. It took time to wash and deal with them. In the past, when Soren wasn't around, Elsa just washed her hair and read for a while. But now it was late and she wanted to have a good rest. This was a house she wasn't familiar with, so she asked, "Hello, Soren, is there have hair dryer?"
"The hair dryer?" Soren's short hair was dried quickly each time when he wiped his hair. He had no idea where he had put the hair dryer.
He got up and searched the closet and drawer. "I can't find it."
"It's okay. I'll dry it with a towel." She rubbed her hair with towel as her things hadn't been packed yet.
Her hair was very long. She usually didn't feel it like a ponytail, but when it was put down, it was black and long, which almost reached her waist. She had beautiful hair.
"Come here." Soren got another dry towel and took her with him, "let me do it for you."
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he took a towel and helped her split the hairs one by one. Then he began to dry her hair. He put his hand on her scalp again and again, which made her shiver. She felt that she would be spoiled by him if she continued to live like this.
Her hair was mostly dried and the two towel were wet. Her hair had been dry, but when she approached the scalp, she could still see the wet hair. That was the bad part of her long hair.
Elsa looked at the time. It was already twelve o'clock. Tomorrow morning, Soren had to drive to the military, she pulled her hair aside and said, "it's getting late. Let's go to sleep."
"Your hair is still wet. It will be trouble if you catch a cold?" Soren didn't agree with her advice, and he still rubbed her hair. But the hair were still not dry totally.
He stood up and took a book from the bookshelf. "Let's read a while before going to sleep."
"Aren't you sleepy?" Elsa was fine, but she didn't want to disturb his rest.
"I have always been fast asleep. And after many years of work, I have developed the habit of staying awake. If you have time, I can sleep for a while to recover my strength."
