Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

11 o'clock noon.

The sun in Blue City was bright and scorching, its heat mirroring Han Yue's fiery mood.

He parked his car at the entrance of the manor, not intending to go in, but instead made a phone call to Lan Yunxi from inside the car, leaning his head back on the seat and looking up at the bright red moon hanging in the azure sky.

The call was quickly answered, and Lan Yunxi's cheerful voice could be heard through the phone, "Brother Yue, you're awake."

Hearing her voice brought him inexplicable pleasure, and Han Yue smiled slightly. "Where do you want to go today?"

Lan Yunxi was a little listless because Tong Xuxu had gone home for the holidays and they couldn't go to the capital. With limited time, she said with a hint of helplessness, "I'm at home reading and drawing. There's nowhere else to go."

In reality, she didn't have many people to play with. She could say that she didn't have many good friends. Lan Yunxi thought that if the people she played with had different values, they wouldn't have many topics to talk about, and playing together would be tiring. It was better not to waste time.

This is what "not being on the same wavelength" means, right? It means you can never be on the same wavelength.

Han Yue naturally sensed the disappointment and listlessness in the girl's words. "Come out."

"Huh? What?"

Lan Yunxi asked, puzzled, on the other end of the phone.

Han Yue chuckled. "I'll have the driver bring you out from your doorstep. I'll take you out to have some fun."

The young girl was clearly not in a hurry to react, and the phone remained silent for a while. After a moment, Lan Yunxi, who had come to her senses, exclaimed in surprise, her voice several decibels higher, "Brother Yue, are you outside? Have you come to Lan City? When did you arrive?"

The barrage of questions was like a barrage of bullets, but Han Yue didn't find it annoying at all. Instead, he felt a ticklish sensation in his heart, like a feather brushing against him. "Come out and I'll tell you."

"Oh, right away. Don't hang up. I'll put it on speakerphone. I'm all dressed and ready to go. Just wait for me."

They kept talking nonstop and didn't want to hang up.

Han Yue complied with her decision not to hang up the phone, saying, "Okay."

Lan Yunxi rushed to the bathroom and started preparing her makeup. Looking at herself in the mirror, she thought her outfit was perfect for a date, but seeing a drawer full of lipsticks, she was at a loss for what to choose. She muttered to herself, "What color should I wear? Peach pink, cherry pink, nude orange, apricot, or carrot?"

Looking at so many lipsticks, the indecisiveness began.

Sometimes having too much isn't a good thing, as it makes choosing difficult.

Han Yue gave an answer to avoid the girl getting confused: actually, he didn't know what color it was either, "nude orange."

"Okay, I like this color too, so I'll wear this. Where am I going today? Should I wear flats or sneakers? I'm wearing a skirt today."

"Wear sportswear, and I'll take you rock climbing and shooting."

Han Yue suggested that since the girl always liked cool things, this kind of thing should be considered cool to her, and sure enough, he could feel her happiness over the phone.

"Wait a few more minutes, I'm going to change into my workout clothes now." You could feel Lan Yunxi's urgency in her tone.

"Hmm," he said, not in a hurry, the rest of the time was hers.

About 15 minutes later, the gate to the manor opened, and a Bugatti slowly drove out and stopped next to his car.

A man got out of the car wearing a sleeveless black and white striped top, white high-waisted shorts, a beige decorative belt around his waist, and loose curly hair. He wore the bracelet he had given him, which glittered on his wrist.

A beige baseball cap covered his head, shielding him from the warm sun, and a pair of white sneakers completed his youthful and energetic look.

Han Yue sighed inwardly, thinking that Lu Jinnan's assessment of him as an old ox eating young grass was not an exaggeration.

She quickly opened the car door and got out. Lan Yunxi rushed into his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, and looked up at him happily.

The bodyguards around him wisely turned away again, adhering to the principle of not looking at what they shouldn't look at, and the Bugatti's driver immediately turned around and headed back to the estate.

Lan Yunxi's face was full of joy and barely suppressed surprise. "Why are you here?"

"Didn't I promise to come see you?"

"I'm so surprised, haha." She tiptoed and kissed Han Yue on the lips, then kissed him again. How could a man who was already longing for her resist such teasing?

He reached out and cupped the back of her head, his freshly applied lipstick instantly smudging his lips, the fragrance filling their mouths. Their teeth were pried open, their tongues telling each other how much they longed for each other, and time itself telling them how much they longed for each other.

After the kiss ended, Lan Yunxi leaned weakly against Han Yue's chest, panting. "Did you miss me?"

"Hmm." Lan Yunxi had already learned to interpret automatically; "hmm" meant "I want to."

After much discussion, the two devised a plan: first rock climbing, then shooting, and tomorrow they would visit the haunted house and ride jet skis.

Imperial Capital Hospital.

Today, Su Xue didn't ask Lu Jinnan to deliver the pregnant woman's meal. She had been away from the organization for too long and needed to reconnect. To allow Han Guoguo to rest, Su Xue apologized and ordered takeout for everyone.

Han Guoguo was in a good mood because she could go on a trip tomorrow, and her brother would be paying for it. She could buy whatever she wanted. She sat in Su Xue's office with her phone in hand, waiting for the takeout to arrive.

With nothing to do, I started scrolling through my WeChat Moments. While scrolling, I came across Lan Yunxi's post. The photo showed Lan Yunxi rock climbing, holding onto the rope and standing at the highest point, making a success gesture and smiling happily.

It goes without saying that the photo was taken by my brother.

It seems my brother's trip to Blue City was quite eventful; no wonder he abandoned her. "Sigh..."

While waiting for her takeout, Tang Junyao looked at her medical records. She looked up at her suspiciously and asked, "What are you doing? Why are you sighing like that?"

Su Xue misspoke, "You've broken up with your boyfriend."

Han Guoguo propped her head up with her hand and said, "Big sister, I haven't even been in a relationship yet, where am I supposed to go and get dumped? I don't even know where my boyfriend is."

"Your sigh is a bit too long. Tell me, what is it that makes this beautiful woman so sad?" These were the words of Tang Junyao.

Drama queen Han Guoguo is online: "My lord, I have been ruthlessly abandoned by Han Duidui. Don't ask me why I'm sad."

Su Xue: "............."

"Can you two use modern language? Stop with the weird words, you're out of your minds." Su Xue was too embarrassed to watch their acting.

Modern people's explanations aren't so pleasant. Han Guoguo began to explain the reason for her sigh, "It's because Han Duidui clearly promised to take me to Blue City tomorrow, but last night he sneaked away. When I woke up, he was already in the big bed at the Blue City Hotel. You can see it from Xixi's WeChat Moments."

"However, Han Duidui also felt that what he did was not right, so he bought me a plane ticket to country A and let me go on a trip, covering all my food and accommodation."

When she said this, Han Guoguo proudly raised her chin, clearly enjoying her brother's direct and blunt approach.

Tang Junyao mentally processed Han Guoguo's words, which meant that Han Yue had gone to Lancheng to find Xixi.

It's been almost a month since the two last met, and it's true that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl need to reunite.

Su Xue, who pulled up a chair and sat down to the side, was not concerned about Han Yue going to Blue City, but about Han Guoguo needing to go to Country A tomorrow. She immediately sent a message to her brother Su Yu: Brother, where are you going to travel tomorrow?

Su Yu: I'm not going.

Su Xue tempted: Do you want to go? I see you've been quite tired lately. How about I treat you to a few days of travel?

Su Yu sensed a conspiracy: To be honest.

Su Xue: That's the truth. I think you're too tired and need to rest. When I became a rich woman, I didn't treat you to anything. How about I treat you to a few days' trip to Country A? I heard the beaches there are beautiful and there are many fun places. It's really beautiful. I'm pregnant and can't go. How about you go in my place?

These words were useless against Su Yu, who didn't believe them at all: "I suggest you organize another one."

Now it was Su Xue's turn to sigh. Why was she so hard to fool? She honestly typed again: "The truth is, Guoguo is going to country A tomorrow. I just saw that you're traveling alone, and Guoguo is traveling alone too. Traveling together doesn't mean anything. It'll be more fun with more people. Besides, it's not safe for a girl to travel alone, right, brother?"

Su Yu understood what his sister meant by playing matchmaker: mind your own business.

Seeing that her brother was unmoved by her words, Su Xue sighed again, "Sigh."

Han Guoguo turned to look at her: "What's wrong with you now?"

Tang Junyao: "Those who know better will think you two are sighing, but those who don't will think you're young and short-tempered."

As soon as she finished speaking, the takeout arrived. Han Guoguo once again took on the work of a mother, not daring to let the two pregnant women do any work. She arranged each dish properly. Su Xue liked to eat sour food, while Yao Yao was not a picky eater.

During the meal.

Su Xue was still unwilling to give up. She hid her thoughts well and said to Han Guoguo, who was eating seriously next to her, "Guoguo, can you send me your plane ticket later?"

Han Guoguo took a bite of her food, looked up at Su Xue, and asked warily, "What are you doing?"

Su Xue put on a great performance, "Showing off on WeChat Moments, wouldn't it be embarrassing if I didn't post a travelogue on WeChat Moments during the May Day holiday?"

Han Guoguo swallowed the food in her mouth. "This is acceptable? You can even travel like this?"

Tang Junyao, Su Xue's best friend and confidante for so many years, had long seen through Su Xue's acting skills and had a premonition of something. "If she wants to, she can travel all over the world during the May Day holiday. Don't doubt it. Let's eat."

"Okay, you guys are pretty pitiful right now, unable to go anywhere for fun. I'll go scout out some places for you first and write down all the fun things to do. You can go after you give birth or three months later, that way it'll save you trouble."

Han Guoguo made all the arrangements perfectly, completely unaware of Su Xue's ulterior motives.

Tang Junyao quickly ate a bowl and a half of rice, then picked up her phone and sent a message to Su Xue: You don't want to be a matchmaker, do you?

Su Xue didn't reply to the message, but winked at Tang Junyao, the meaning of which was already clear.

Guoguo's personality is quite suitable for Su Yu's quiet nature; they complement each other. If they really get together in the future, it might even add some fun to their lives. Guoguo can create a lot of joy, which is not bad.

It would be best if it could work out.

Tang Junyao thought so too, and hoped that Su Yu could be happy. He was already 30, and Aunt Su should be getting worried. Su Xue was almost two children.
