I slept with the wrong person on my wedding night, and the boss spoiled me rotten!

Jiang Xuxu smiled slightly, turned around and left, "It's not that I particularly want to know."

During breakfast, Xu Jiahui intentionally brought up the matter of arranging the wedding, roughly meaning that she wanted them to hold their wedding together with Jiang Rusheng's.

To make it a double celebration.

Since they've already registered their marriage, Jiang Xuxu has no objection to having another wedding, which would be perfect for making Lu Chen give up completely.

His gaze fell on the silent Gu Jingshen, who seemed lost in thought, his eyes vacant.

"Gu Jingshen?" Jiang Xuxu gently nudged his arm.

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Rusheng interjected, "Brother-in-law, why don't you two hold your wedding together in the middle of the month?"

Gu Jingshen said that he still needed to go back and discuss this matter with his grandmother.

Xu Jiahui quickly smoothed things over, "That's right, our two families haven't even met yet!"

"There's no time like the present, let's do it today, it's not far anyway," Jiang Huai suggested.

Jiang Xuxu and Gu Jingshen exchanged a glance, and Jiang Xuxu, seeing his reluctance, quickly declined.

"Dad, Mom, we're not in a rush. You should make arrangements for Rusheng first. Besides, we haven't prepared anything yet, and time is too tight."

"No rush, no rush," Xu Jiahui waved her hands repeatedly, "Have you forgotten that your second aunt is a well-known matchmaker in the surrounding area? Leave this to her, she'll handle it in a couple of days..."

Jiang Huai coughed twice to remind her, and Xu Jiahui stopped talking in time.

He chuckled awkwardly, "Alright then, you young people can discuss it yourselves. Just let us know when you've set a time."

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Jiang Xuxu put down her chopsticks and bowl. "Are you full? Grandma is still waiting for us. Let's go."

After saying that, she pulled Gu Jingshen away from the dinner table.

The elders of both sides hadn't even met yet, but they were already urging them to hold a wedding. Anyone who didn't know better would think that the Jiang family was in a hurry to marry off their daughter.

After leaving the Jiang family, Jiang Xuxu remained silent the whole way, while Gu Jingshen sat in the driver's seat and focused on driving.

Why don't you ask me why I didn't agree to the wedding earlier?

After driving for a while, Gu Jingshen slowly spoke.

Jiang Xuxu didn't want to ask, nor did she want to know. "It's a fake marriage anyway, why bother with a wedding?"

"Is that what you think?" Gu Jingshen asked.

"Of course, now that I've dealt with my family, I'll find an excuse to leave in a couple of days, and then we'll go our separate ways. After a while, I can just find any excuse to leave."

Makes for show!

But Jiang Xuxu felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart.

Let alone a year, she's already feeling a bit reluctant to leave even though it hasn't been a month yet.

I really haven't seen enough. This time when I go back to Beicheng, I must meet more handsome men and not waste this precious time!

Thinking this way, her frustration was somewhat relieved.

Gu Jingshen didn't speak again, his face returning to its usual indifference.

Jiang Xuxu cautiously peered through the rearview mirror. She knew without a doubt that Gu Jingshen would never agree to have a wedding with her.

He wouldn't even tell her his own surname, which clearly shows he didn't consider her one of his own.

Jiang Xuxu looked down at her phone. It was a series of text messages from Lu Chen begging for reconciliation. Even after she blocked him, he would send them from other numbers.

I'm so annoyed.

One of the messages was from Lin Tingran inviting her for coffee: "Do you have time? I have something very important to tell you, about Lu Chen."

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Xuxu replied: I'm busy these two days, but I'll make an appointment with you when I have time.

After putting down her phone, she realized that this wasn't the way to her grandmother's house.

"Where are we going?" Jiang Xuxu asked, looking out the window.

Gu Jingshen said calmly, "I'm taking you to see someone."

"Who are you going to see? Didn't you say your only relative was your grandmother?"

Jiang Xuxu regretted her words as soon as they left her mouth; Gu Jingshen rarely spoke the truth.

Didn't I just meet his aunt's family yesterday?

She said "Oh," and looked down at her phone again.

Chuanhe fired her, and she'll have to find a new job after she goes back.

In the past two days, Jiang Xuxu has submitted several resumes, but they have all disappeared without a trace. Some haven't even been read, and others have been read but no one has replied.

It seems her reputation in this industry is ruined, and she needs to find another way out.

She then opened her phone's photo album and looked at her design sketches. Besides architecture, there were also jewelry, clothing, and vehicles...

Jiang Xuxu has dabbled in all of them.

Although it's just a hobby, her meticulous work style demands that she do everything almost perfectly.

I also spent money to study at a professional institution.

Even if she doesn't pursue a career in technology, I believe she will soon be able to make a name for herself in the design industry!

With that in mind, Jiang Xuxu made another resume and sent it to several well-known design companies in Beicheng.

After doing all this, Gu Jingshen's car also stopped.

"Get off the bus."

He opened the car door, leaned against the car, and looked worried.

Looking around, the area is sparsely populated, with no tourist attractions, only a few abandoned graves.

"Why did you bring me here?"

Gu Jingshen walked ahead, with Jiang Xuxu following closely behind. They passed through the grass and over the hills, eventually arriving at a spacious mountaintop.

"You brought me all this way, not just so you could see all the mountains from above, right?"

Indeed, from here you can overlook the mountains and see the tall buildings in the distance.

Gu Jingshen looked solemn, turned around and squatted under a tree. He parted the grass and a tombstone was revealed.

Jiang Xuxu took two steps back in fright. "What, what's this grave here?"

There was no name on it, only the date of birth and the date of death were recorded.

Born on October 22, 1977... isn't that today?

She passed away on November 15, 2005, the very day Jiang Rusheng held his wedding.

Jiang Xuxu did some quick calculations and figured that if the person inside was still alive, they would be 53 years old this year.

She suddenly realized.

Could the person buried inside be...?

At this moment, Gu Jingshen quietly knelt down to the side, lit a few candles, and then laid out a strawberry cake.

"Mom, happy birthday 🎂..." His voice choked with emotion.

Jiang Xuxu's eyes instantly reddened, and she knelt down with a thud, "I'm sorry, I didn't know next month was..."

It is the anniversary of my aunt's death.

"It's not your fault, it's my fault for not telling you."

Jiang Xuxu shielded him from the wind from behind and quietly watched him finish doing all this before she kowtowed three times deeply.

"Happy birthday, Auntie. From now on, I'll be with him, so you can rest easy over there," she said softly.

Gu Jingshen stood in the wind, facing the mountains, and spoke of his past, but he was unwilling to mention his father.

Jiang Xuxu gave him a hug from behind and comforted him, saying, "Auntie is a nurse, the pride of the people. She has never left you, but has transformed into an angel to protect you and the people of this land."

Gu Jingshen smiled slightly; Jiang Xuxu's voice was as pleasant as his mother's.

When she was five years old, she received her mother's last phone call.

On the phone, she said, "Jingshen, don't be afraid. Mom is going to a very far place. When you miss Mom, just look up at the sky. Mom will be there to protect you like an angel."

From then on, the mother's image remained in that city ravaged by the virus.

What's buried here are just her old clothes.

She once said that she wanted to stand at the highest point, overlooking the peace of all living beings, and wishing that there would be no more diseases in the world.

My mother dedicated her life to the medical profession, and she never left the operating table until the end of her life.

The bodies were cremated on the spot and buried in the cemetery for martyrs who sacrificed their lives in the rescue.

Gu Jingshen took out the medical book from his pocket; it was given to him by his aunt when he left the Gu family.

He said it was a medical book written by his mother, the culmination of half her life's work, and told him to keep it safe.

Jiang Xuxu craned her neck, looking suspicious, and said, "I've seen this book before."
