Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On this end, this couple was very relaxed.

On another end, the woman’s mother, who was in the back seat of another car, was panicking a lot.

Her phone had not stopped ringing ever since she got in the car.

It was either her neighbors or friends whom she had not contacted in a long time calling her.

The worst part were the relatives on her husband’s side. From third aunt and sixth grandaunt to those who were barely related to her, all of them were calling her.

Fine. It was not too bad that those people she barely knew called her.

The scariest part was that those supposedly old CEOs, reporters, et cetera calling her.

“Ah... mhm... Yes, yes, yes. I’m really busy today, so I’ll be hanging up now. Hur hur... Thank you. Bye.”

She quickly switched off her phone after ending that last call.

“Auntie, were you frightened?”

The lad driving the car was none other than Ji Ziming’s childhood friend, Liao Gaofei.

“A little. Why are there so many people calling today?”

She shook her head and muttered to herself, Although my daughter’s lover is Xiao Ji, she has never shown off about it to anyone.

Why does it seem that the whole world knows that my daughter is marrying him?

Those callers all gave us their best wishes, so I couldn’t even hang up right away, or else it would be impolite.

Unfortunately, after that, all of them came up with requests that I couldn’t fulfill.

“Sigh! Auntie, you may not know this, but with this bride-fetching troop, those two’s engagement is already known across China! The whole country now knows about their engagement today! Some people are even following us around to do a live stream!”

Seeing her confusion, he explained everything to her happily.

“Huh?! What? Everyone in China knows that my daughter is getting engaged to Xiao Ji today?! Gasp! Are you sure about that?”

She was flabbergasted. She could not fathom how the whole world would care to know about this mere engagement between her daughter and that man.

“Auntie, you should know who your soon-to-be son-in-law’s identity! Although he is not an idol, with his looks, capabilities, and background, even the hottest idol out there is just a pile of soil before him!” remarked this young man.

“Perhaps, even those people outside the country know that he is getting engaged today!”

“O-Outside the country?!”

Her frail and old heart seemed to have suffered a huge shock today.

It appears that... my precious daughter is about to marry a man even more influential than an idol!

...

New York City, America.

Compared to the sweltering noon in China, on the other end of the Pacific Ocean, it was a gloomy night.

The sky was overcast and the air was cold, which was perfect for funerals.

Even the myriad of lights of this nocturnal city could not totally get rid of this darkness. Looking at this depressing nightscape, a certain man felt as if he were about to attend a close relative’s funeral.

The man wore a dark gray long robe and held a transparent goblet. The dark-red wine in it seemed like still blood, making this man’s emotionless face appear to be frostier and more somber.

He looked at the bright night lights outside the window, yet his heart remained desolate and empty.

He seemed to have lost something, as if someone had dug out a piece of his heart.

“Zhengrong, what are you doing? Why are you just spacing out on the balcony after showering?”

As the man was dazedly looking at the scenery outside, Tang Xiaoyu stepped out of the room in a black, sexy lace sleepwear.

The man lightly peered at her before retracting his gaze and placing it back on to the bright nightscape.

“Zhengrong?”

The woman’s heart beat uneasily at his lack of reaction.

She quickly strode to the tall man by the window.

“What’s so nice about the view outside that you’re not looking at me at all?”

She uneasily wound her arms around the man’s arm and rested her head against it.

“I’m a little tired today, so I don’t feel like talking.”

The man pulled his arm back from hers and said this in a low voice filled with fatigue.

“...”

A hurt look flashed past her face when he did this, and she stared blankly at the man she had loved for years.

“What’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?”

She tightly grabbed the man’s hand as if she had suffered a huge blow.

She looked pitiful and lonely.

Alas, this could not get her man’s attention.

“No.”

He remained stoic and cold, projecting a strong alienation for her.

“T-Then, what’s wrong with you today?”

She blinked and tried to make herself look happier.

Seeing that she was intent on getting to the end of the matter, the man’s dark eyes flashed with frustration and impatience.

“...”

Both stopped talking at once.

She seemed to be in a fit of pique as she stopped talking at the man’s continued silence.

She only looked at him silently.

After a long time, his mouth finally moved. He seemed to have sighed.

“Isn’t it your best friend’s engagement today? It should’ve started by now.”

Her eyes lit up at the mention of her best friend.

As if she had emerged victorious, she smiled triumphantly. “Yes! Ge Ge and her boyfriend are making their way to the engagement venue in a high-profile manner! It’s everywhere online! She’s now an internet sensation!”
