The next day, Xi Xiaye noticed that Mu Yuchen was already not around when she woke up. She did not even feel the slightest of his warmth under the sheets. He must have woken up pretty early.

After cleaning up and going downstairs, she realized it was nearly noon. She had actually slept until that late!

Xi Xiaye placed her hand on her forehead. As she sat down and ate her breakfast, Su Nan called. She quickly grabbed a few bites, then rushed out.

Su Nan's apartment was located in the east side of the city and Xi Xiaye had to make a big round to get to her. Su Nan and Ruan Heng had probably waited for her for quite some time under the cold rain when she finally arrived.

Ruan Heng was a handsome and gentle-looking man. He seemed like an honest man and he wore a pair of black-framed glasses. Judging by his appearance, he looked like a knowledgeable academic. He was actually a software engineer for a company.

"Been waiting for very long?" Xi Xiaye said apologetically when she saw Su Nan's ruddy face. "I wanted to take the quick way, but who would've thought I'd be stuck in a traffic jam?"

"Luckily, I wore quite a lot today or I'd have frozen to death. The weather was still fine several days ago, but now it just keeps on raining with such chilly weather. Man, I'm not in the mood!" Su Nan complained as she put her umbrella into the trunk, then she got into the car with Ruan Heng.

"Stop complaining. It's tough enough for Xiaye to come here all the way from the north. Here, wipe the water off." Ruan Heng looked at Su Nan helplessly before accepting the tissue Xi Xiaye passed.

Su Nan cleaned up her face with the tissue. She scanned around the car and noticed only Xi Xiaye was there, so she asked, "Hey, why is it just you? Isn't that husband of yours coming?"

"He's gone to City B and will only be back in the afternoon, but he'll join us for dinner," Xi Xiaye replied as she started the car.

"Right, Xiaye, Ruan Heng and I went to see my parents yesterday and we decided to go and get a marriage certificate in a few days' time. The wedding will be on the 15th this month. I thought you could be my bridesmaid, but then you suddenly got married earlier than me," Su Nan grumbled from the back.

"Congratulations, Su Nan and Ruan Heng!"

Xi Xiaye felt really ecstatic to receive the news and she congratulated them from the bottom of her heart. "It's about time your long-term relationship got some results. Are you planning to get your marriage certificate before the new year?"

"Mm-hmm. Ruan Heng was rushing to get the marriage certificate before the year-end when he heard that you got married. Anyway, our parents were pretty supportive too, so it's decided."

"Marriage is good, Nannan. I wanted to marry you earlier and my parents have been longing for a grandchild. What should I do if you run away abroad when you get angry again the next time?" Ruan Heng spoke up. He always got soft on Su Nan who was always the dominant one. Hopefully, he could marry her soon as he believed that she would behave herself once she got pregnant and became a mother.

"Then, try making me angry again. See if I'll fly to Africa to cool down!" Su Nan glared at him before turning to Xi Xiaye. "Xiaye, what about your wedding? When are you guys having it? If possible, let's try out wedding dresses and take wedding pictures together! Ruan Heng has a friend who owns a wedding boutique. They're really professional! We can take a package there together and make him give us a big discount!"

"We're not in a hurry. The year-end is getting busy, so we delayed our wedding. 15th this month? That's pretty close. There are quite a few pretty wedding dress boutiques in Imperial Sky Entertainment City. Let's go and take a look later."

"Mmm, I thought of that too. I heard that the trial business run has started and things are getting lively. I want to visit Imperial Sky Jewellery City later as well. We haven't bought a wedding ring. We'll see if there's anything gorgeous later!"

Su Nan was smiling gaily as she looked at Ruan Heng. "Ruan Heng, I'm telling you now. If the diamond is too small, I'm not marrying you. Get it?"

Ruan Heng dotingly held the fist Su Nan threw at him. He replied gently, "I got it, my princess! I'll make sure it's blinding. Is that fine with you?"

Xi Xiaye saw the smiles of Su Nan and Ruan Heng from the rear-view mirror and her heart softened as well.

Now, everything seemed fine, did it not?

She glanced over at the ring on her finger as Mu Yuchen's face flashed through her mind all of a sudden.

As she was thinking about him, just as if they had a connection, her phone suddenly rang. Xi Xiaye slowed her car down and took a look at her phone. Mu Yuchen was calling her.

She picked up the call and a deep voice soon answered from the other end. "Where are you now?"

"We're going to Imperial Sky Entertainment City. Are you back? If you are, just come over to Entertainment City."

Xi Xiaye took a look at the time. It was around 2 o'clock and he was probably already done with work.

"I'm still in City B and will be back around 5. Imperial Sky Hotel Room 808. Ah Mo has already gone over already and he'll call you later. I'll switch off my phone when I board the plane."

"Mmm, got it. Give me a call later and be careful on your way back. I'm driving. Talk to you soon."

Xi Xiaye hung up after Mu Yuchen gave her an affirmation.
