It was not an employee who walked it. It was Sunny!
Sunny’s reaction at seeing Corinne was even grander than hers. “My god, Corinne, you look like a blimp!”
Corinne was speechless. ‘Guess he’s still the same thoughtless boy six months ago.’
Sunny walked up to her to take a closer look. “But you still look cute.”
Corinne raised an eyebrow. “Don’t you have class today?”
Sunny shrugged and said haughtily, “I did go to class, but it’s lunch break now. I heard Xante is going to pick you up
today, so I came to see you.”
Corinne placed her cup on the table. She then looked at him with narrowed eyes. “Does your family know about you
and Xante?”

my parents, but Xante wouldn’t let me. She said she’s not ready to meet the parents yet.”
Corinne looked at his immature face and instantly worried about leaving Xante with him. “What are you going to do
if your family doesn’t approve of you two being together?”
Sunny crossed his legs and thought about it. “I’ll keep persuading them until they accept her.”
“And what if after all the persuading they still don’t approve?”
“Well, that’s simple! I’ll just run away from home and move in with Xante. I don’t mind taking up her surname. It’s
not like she doesn’t have the money to take care of me.”
Corinne laughed out of the absurdity of it all. “Is that all the backbone you have? You’re already planning to marry
into her family when you guys aren’t even seriously dating yet? It’s obvious you’re trying to take advantage of her.”
Sunny did not agree with her. “What’s wrong with marrying into her family? As long as it’s true love, who cares
about all that? Besides, I only said I’d marry into her family and didn’t say I’d rely on her forever. I, of course, have
plans to make myself stronger so that I can protect and take care of her in the future.”
Corinne pinched the bridge of her nose. “Sunny, why don’t you focus on getting into a good university first? At your
current situation, I’m sure your brother would rather break both of your legs instead of letting you marry into
Xante’s family.”
Sunny crossed his arms. “Heh! Don’t think you can use my brother to scare me! I’m afraid of him when it comes to
most things, but not this! I won’t change my mind about Xante, even if you tattle on me to him. So what if he
breaks both of my legs? Xante will take care of me until they heal!”
Sunny might think he was being all macho by saying all those, but to Corinne, he only sounded very immature.
Frankly, he sounded a little bit silly, too.

“How sure are you that I’ll take care of you until your legs heal?” asked Xante, walking over. She had just finished
her call and happened to hear the end of their conversation.
Sunny immediately sat up properly and toned down his macho behavior when he saw Xante walking over. However,
he did not drop his arrogant attitude. “I know one hundred percent that you’ll come to save me because you can’t
bear to live without me.”
Normally, Xante would just ignore Sunny whenever he said something childish like that. However, her boss was
there, so she could not help but feel embarrassed.
She pinched the bridge of her nose and said, “There’s still the risk of your legs never healing even with all the best
medical care. That means you’ll become a cripple. Do you think I’ll care about you then?”
“Yes!” answered Sunny without hesitation.
Xante scoffed. “You think too highly of me. I’ll never sacrifice myself for someone else.”
Sunny frowned unhappily. “Xante, I know you don’t mean that and will take care of me if I really end up as a
cripple.”
