Fang Xi stood at the airport, blankly looking at the people coming and going around her. She had lived in this city for ten years. She had subconsciously treated this place as her home since her university days because her best friends and loved ones were all in this city.
Some people say that ‘home is where your family is.’ However, her family wasn’t here, and sadly, she had no home with them either. Therefore, she tacitly accepted this place as her home… It was merely her own tacit assumption.
She walked towards the exit with her suitcase towed behind her and silently gave herself a pep talk. ‘It’s no big deal. Everyone comes into this world alone and leaves alone. You only live once; there are no do-overs, take-backs, or second chances. So make the most ofit and live your life happily. Be happy, and look out for yourself—to h *Il with everyone else!’

Xi Cheng didn’t drop his speed until Lin Yu caught up and clutched his arm; he had no choice but to slow down. He looked at Lin Yu’s stiletto heels and frowned before asking, ‘Why do you go out in these types of shoes?”
Unable to defend her choice of footwear, Lin Yu forced a smile and changed the topic. “Why are you in such a hurry? There may be reporters at the exit. You know how they are. If they saw us leaving separately and took pictures, they might write nonsense, and then Mom would make a fuss when she sees the news.”
Xi Cheng’s frown deepened, but he slowed down further and allowed Lin Yu to hold his arm. Lin Yu felt smug but didn’t dare to show it; instead, she leaned against Xi Cheng and smiled gracefully. They were the very image of a happy couple.
“Xi Cheng, could you make time for our wedding photos?” Lin Yu requested.
“Didn’t we already have our photos taken?” Xi Cheng stated. There was a hint of impatience in his indifferent tone.
“Those were just a few photos for our engagement ceremony. They’re definitely not enough for a wedding,” Lin Yu laughingly explained and continued without waiting for Xi Cheng’s response.
“I’ve discussed it with my mom. We’ll take photos of both Chinese- and
Western-styled wedding attire. Mom and Dad also want to take photos with us; it’ll be a family photo. We’ll have to take photos every year when we have children in the future.” Lin Yu had a sweet expression as she pictured their future together.
Xi Cheng didn’t say anything. He could say nothing whenever Lin Yu brought up his parents. They were his kryptonite—useful against him at any time and place.
Lin Yu expectantly commented, “Xi Cheng, Mom said that we’re not young anymore, and it’s time we consider having children. Mom has already made an appointment with the doctor for our physical examination. Mom has also helped us find someone to read our fortune and pick out an auspicious date for conception. We only have to cooperate with her.”
Xi Cheng stopped in his tracks, and Lin Yu looked at him in confusion. He stared at her dolled-up but plain face and swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat was there to say? He had tried everything, from earnest persuasion to hysterical shouting and honest begging. Lin Yu was immune to it all and stubborn to a fault; she had set her sights on him and would have no other.
Furthermore, his parents were also determined to have her as their daughter-in-law. Even if the Lin family had caused a huge disaster, his parents wouldn’t hesitate to clean up the mess for them, thus making Lin Yu even more committed to him.
Xi Cheng bitterly smiled as he thought, ‘ What an ill-fated relationship this is, and I’m the sacrificial lamb between the Xi and Lin families.’
Just as Lin Yu had expected, there were many reporters at the exit brandishing cameras, cell phones, and video cameras. There were flashes of light as they furiously snapped photos.
Even though he was wearing sunglasses, Xi Cheng couldn’t help but turn his head away. Lin Yu, on the other hand, openly faced the cameras with a modest smile. She’d thought the reporters would come over to interview her, but unexpectedly, they all suddenly ran to one side.
Lin Yu heard them yell, “Hurry! Come on! Quick!” Her expression soured, but it would be impolite to pull them aside and ask what was going on, so she could only stand by and watch. She managed to catch a snippet of conversation from the crowd of reporters as they passed by: “I heard she’s Director Yun’s right-hand woman, and Mr. MO thinks very highly of her! Many major brands are vying to work with her.”
In the blink of an eye, all the reporters before Xi Cheng and Lin Yu had left. Xi Cheng heaved a sigh of relief while Lin Yu’s eyes followed their retreating figures and unhappily remarked, “Who’s their target? Is it a celebrity?”
However, her face immediately darkened when her gaze landed on the figure in the crowd. “Let’s go,” she bid Xi Cheng as she hastily pulled him away.
Xi Cheng didn’t want to stay in the first place; he wasn’t interested in watching the show, so he let Lin Yu pull him away without saying a word. But he didn’t understand what was wrong with this woman. Not long ago, she was complaining about him walking too fast and wasn’t considerate of the fact that she was wearing high heels. Now, she was striding off speedily on her stiletto heels. Fortunately, he was used to Lin Yu’s strange behaviors and didn’t care or mind..
