Xuxu patted her chest and admonished Jiang Zhuoheng before she answered his question . "Yan Rusheng called, he sounded unhinged . "
"Oh," Jiang Zhuoheng replied lightly and put his hands tenderly around her shoulders . "I'll send you home, it's getting late . "
Hearing that, Wen Xuxu glanced at the time on her phone . It was almost 10 p . m . , indeed it was getting late .
On their way back, the windows were rolled down . Xuxu's hand supported her cheek and she peered outside . The nightscape of the bustling city flitted past her eyes .
The gentle breeze brushed against her face . The residual noise from the bar had finally vanished in her head and her mind had calmed down .
Jiang Zhuoheng was focusing on driving and they didn't talk at all in the car .
The car entered the neighborhood and stopped right outside her apartment . She unfastened her seatbelt and asked him, "Do you want to go upstairs for a while?"
Jiang Zhuoheng shook his head . "Nope, it's too late . "
It was indeed getting late so Xuxu didn't insist . "Then drive carefully on the road, good night . "
She got down and closed the car door . Standing next to the car, she bade him goodbye with a smile .
"Rest early . " Jiang Zhuoheng lowered his head and looked at her with a deep gaze .
"Mm . " Xuxu nodded . She turned around to walk towards the apartment and fumbled for her keys at the same time .
"Xuxu, I'll wait for you . "
Suddenly, she heard Jiang Zhuoheng's voice call out .
It sounded like he had mustered all his courage to profess his love .
Xuxu was stunned and she slowly raised her head . Then she gradually turned to look back .
The sound of the engine started with a 'vroom' and the white Audi vanished out of her sight as quick as lightning .
She stood rooted to the ground . She regained herself only after the car had turned back and drove past her once more .
The cellphone in her bag rang out; it was a text notification .
Xuxu took out her cellphone and glanced at the screen . The text was from Jiang Zhuoheng .
She tapped on the text . If you agree, wear the Bestlove I gave you to your birthday party . If you still haven't decided, I'll continue to wait .
Wen Xuxu was embarrassed .
If he hadn't added that last sentence, it didn't sound so bad . He would continue to wait . . .
Ah Heng, I'm feeling pressured . . .
She clutched her phone and looked up at the starry sky, a melancholic gleam in her eyes .
Grandfather, do you really want me to get married?
Xuxu reached home, and as usual, after she had changed into her slippers, she went straight into the bathroom . After she'd finished showering, she put on her bathrobe and walked to her bedroom .
She sat at her dressing table to dry her hair . The loud hum from the hairdryer disrupted her mood and thoughts .
She decided to switch it off and placed the hairdryer on the dressing table . Pulling open the dressing table drawer, she retrieved a dark red wooden box placed inside .
The box was sealed with a tiny golden lock . She got up and went to the bedside cabinet to search for a bunch of keys . She found the smallest key and used it to open the wooden box .
Inside the box, there was a golden-yellow plastic ring . It was covered with bits of black mold .
Xuxu put down the box and took out the ring . After she put it on her little finger, she raised her hand in front of the mirror . There was a bitter smile at the corners of her mouth .
The bride and groom may now exchange the wedding rings . . .
You may now kiss the bride . . .
I'm not kissing her, she's so fierce .
Third Yan, you have to stick to the rules of the game . You're the groom and Xuxu is the bride .
Alright, it's just a kiss .
Kiss!
The black box of her memories had been opened . Xuxu stared blankly at her reflection in the mirror . She raised her other hand and touched her cheek gently .
Xuxu patted her chest and admonished Jiang Zhuoheng before she answered his question . Yan Rusheng called, he sounded unhinged .
