Xiao Jinglan felt a sense of irony in his heart.

A hint of sneer flashed across his lowered eyes.

When he raised his eyes, he looked calm and peaceful.

"Oh." She said in a faint voice and turned around without asking any more questions.

Ling Yisheng felt a little suspicious when he saw this, but he didn't think much about it. He walked closer and asked, "So? Is this your attitude?"

"What else?" Xiao Jinglan looked indifferent and raised his eyes to glance.

"Oh! Forget it!" Ling Yisheng sighed, feeling helpless and confused.

"We are about to start preparing for the engagement party. I want to hold it this weekend and go try on clothes in two days?" Ling Yisheng suddenly said something shocking.

Xiao Jinglan didn't react for a moment, "Engagement banquet?"

"Yes, didn't I mention it to your parents last time I met you? Let's get engaged first, so that our relationship will be one step closer to the outside world, and we can make it public next time!" Ling Yisheng slowly played with the strands of hair on her forehead, lifting a strand and tucking it behind her ear.

"Is it necessary?" Xiao Jinglan dodged his movements uncomfortably, thinking that this was a bit too fast as she had only been back for a week.

"Of course!" Ling Yisheng said in a firm tone, his eyes deep, "Who told you not to let me make it public? Then I can only hurry up and follow the process. Lanlan, don't doubt my infatuation with you. I want to tell others openly every day that you are my wife."

Xiao Jinglan met his deep gaze and noticed the obsession in his eyes. He silently curled the corners of his mouth in his heart, but his face remained calm and indifferent.

"…Then I'll talk to my parents first."

"No need, I've already talked to my uncle and aunt, and the date is almost set."

As he spoke, he came over and hugged her.

Xiao Jinglan's attention was still on the lipstick marks on his shirt. He dodged his hand without thinking and turned around to keep some distance.

"You have already decided on this, why are you still asking for my opinion? Just do it first and report it later!" Xiao Jinglan said in a bad tone.

Ling Yisheng's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, anger brewing on his face. When he heard her words, he thought she was arguing with him for not telling her about this in advance, and his anger dissipated instantly.

He knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his posture and said in a gentle tone, "Lanlan, how can you say that? Aren't I just asking you now? I can't just make the decision if you don't agree!"

He moved closer as if to please her and raised his hand to touch her again.

Xiao Jinglan was about to hide again, but Ling Yisheng quickly predicted the direction she would hide and bumped into her.

When he got the chance, he tightened his grip without hesitation.

Then, he lowered his head and leaned it half on her shoulder, acting as if he was acting coquettishly.

Xiao Jinglan felt itchy from being rubbed, thinking that this man was always using this trick, but she couldn't do anything about his beauty trap, "...Forget it, what date do you want, Saturday or Sunday?"

"The wedding banquet will be held on Sunday, and the wedding dress will be tried on on Thursday."

"it is good."

After Xiao Jinglan agreed, he said in a good temper, "Can you let me go now? I want to take a shower."

"Okay." Ling Yisheng responded, but he kept this posture and hugged her tighter.

After a while, when Xiao Jinglan was about to express her dissatisfaction, he let her go.

Xiao Jinglan took a deep breath and walked to the cloakroom to get his clothes.

Ling Yisheng watched her walk into the bathroom with a tender gaze.

Then he took out his cell phone and took a look.

A light stroke with your fingertips.

Looking at the photo of Xiao Jinglan and him three years ago in the background of his hand, his eyes flashed slightly.

As his thoughts raced, he entered the settings of his phone and changed the photo on the screen saver to a photo saved in his phone album.

The back view of a man and a woman walking hand in hand and side by side is full of harmony.

That was the photo Chu Zhao took secretly from behind him when he and Xiao Jinglan were shopping in the mall together last time.

Chu Zhao sent it to him afterwards.

Ling Yisheng looked at this photo of the back and wondered in his heart when he should change it to a better front-facing photo.

……

in the bathroom

Xiao Jinglan was half lying in the huge bathtub, wrapped in warm water, staring at the light above his head with empty eyes, his thoughts drifting.

After a moment, she closed her eyes and sank beneath the surface.

Let the warm water soak her face.

She was a little confused and didn't know how to deal with her relationship with Ling Yisheng.

Legally, they are married.

In the eyes of outsiders, they are boyfriend and girlfriend, an engaged couple about to get engaged.

In his eyes, he may have always regarded her as his girlfriend, and they have never broken up, and now they are an officially married couple.

But she was very conflicted and didn't know what to do.

She thought they had broken up three years ago and would never have any contact again, but she didn't expect that she would get married to him in a daze three years later.

She used to like him and wanted to live with him forever, but so many things happened along the way that she now doesn't know how she feels about him.

Everything she saw told her that he seemed to be hiding a lot of things from her.

But what she felt was his indulgence and warmth towards her.

It's just that his personality is gloomy and unstable, making it difficult to understand.

Sometimes he is gloomy and scary, overbearing and strong; sometimes he is meticulous and caring.

This reminded her of what happened three years ago, an experience that suffocated and depressed her.

She didn't know what he had become now, nor did she know if she could accept him now.

In real life, it seemed that everything was pushing her towards him, with no way out.

She needed time to clear her mind and think carefully.

……

Ling Yisheng waited for a long time but didn't see her come out. Worried that something happened to her, he was about to knock on the door.

Xiao Jinglan had just finished taking a bath, changed into pajamas and came to open the door.

For a moment, their eyes met.

"how?"

"You were in there for so long, I thought something happened!"

"It's okay, I accidentally soaked it for a little longer."

"Oh, it's okay."

Ling Yisheng took a few steps back to make way for her.

Xiao Jinglan was walking out when he suddenly turned around and asked seriously, "Are you in charge of Xiao Corporation now?"

"...Yes." Ling Yisheng was stunned for a few seconds and nodded in response.

But after a moment, he continued, "But Xiao Corporation is still under the name of the Xiao family. I am just the trustee."

"Thank you!" Xiao Jinglan said sincerely.

Ling Yisheng let out a sly laugh, breaking the serious atmosphere.

"If you really want to thank me, I think I should give you a thank you gift!"

"what would you like?"

"you."

Xiao Jinglan was stunned when he heard this, and moved his lips for a while before saying, "...Didn't I marry you?"

"I want you." Ling Yisheng stopped smiling, his expression became serious, and he said in all seriousness, "I want your body and mind. I want you to be with me forever and never leave."

Xiao Jinglan was silent for a moment, then pretended to be relaxed and replied, "Since we are married, of course we will always be together."

Hearing this, he stared at her for a long time, as if trying to detect her emotions.
