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

Next, Su Yu told Han Guoguo to stand still. Han Guoguo didn't move, but said to Su Xue beside her, "Cry."

Su Xue smiled slightly, then said to Lu Jinnan beside her, "I love you."

Fearing he might make a mistake, Lu Jinnan focused intently, "I don't..."

Oh no, saying I don't love you is the right answer, but then Grandma might have to make him put on the acupressure mat. Actually, Su Xue didn't think much when she said it, it just came out of her mouth.

Su Xue: "It's okay, Xiao Nan. Just because you say you don't love me doesn't mean you don't love me anymore. Go ahead and tell me."

In the end, Lu Jinnan, being a manly man, didn't say it out loud. He would rather die than admit that when he saw Su Yu walk away, he didn't seem to be in that much pain. He was blindly confident that his soles were no thinner than Su Yu's, so he wasn't afraid. He stood up gracefully, took off his shoes, and the moment he stepped onto the acupressure mat, it felt like a landslide, an earthquake.

"Wild fruit, did you fucking buy imported ones? Why are they so hard? What kind of fetish do you have?" I like this sour and refreshing taste.

Damn it.

Lu Jinnan was cursing and swearing.

Han Guoguo gloated, swaying her hips and holding Su Yu's hand under the table. Didn't she just say she bought a knock-off? "Mine is a knock-off. If I had bought the real thing, you might have left with your life."

Tang Junyao and Lan Yunxi rested their chins on their hands, watching Lu Jinnan's pained expression. Lu Jinnan's facial expression was so exaggerated that it made the two of them frown as well.

"Oh my god, it hurts so much! It's both painful and itchy! This isn't a party, it's self-torture! Oh my god, I can't take it anymore, I'm going to break..."

Ji Hancheng found it annoying and picked at his ear. "If you had just shut your mouth, you could have finished a few seconds earlier."

Finally, Lu Jinnan walked across the acupressure mat with a lot of howling. He wasn't as dashing as he was at the beginning, and it was Su Xue, a pregnant woman, who helped him sit down on the table.

Su Xue felt both sorry for him and amused.

Lu Jinnan, unconvinced, looked down at Su Yu and asked, "Why didn't you react at all just now?"

Ji Hancheng kindly answered for Su Yu, complaining that Lu Jinnan's answer was useless, "Guoguo gave him antibodies and anesthesia."

Upon hearing this, everyone who had been holding back their laughter broke down instantly. Lu Jinnan's disheveled appearance just now was still vivid in their minds, replaying itself over and over again. Su Xue apologized with heartache, "Honey, I'm sorry. I just wanted to express my love."

Lu Jinnan waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, he just needed to relieve the pressure, and took off his shoes to rub the soles of his feet.

Han Guoguo felt that Ji Hancheng and Han Yue would definitely not be punished if they played around like this, so let's have something sweet instead. In the end, it will only be Su Yu who suffers, since her brother is so cunning and asks such tricky questions.

Su Yu might not be able to handle it.

Finally, they played a game of tearing paper strips. Starting with Ji Hancheng, they would bite a long strip of paper in their mouths and tear it with force. Tang Junyao would let Xixi tear the other half of the strip. This continued until Han Yue and Su Yu were tearing each other's strips. It was a little awkward because the strips were already a bit short. If their technique wasn't good, their mouths would touch.

With a piece of paper torn from the little girl's mouth in his mouth, Han Yue mumbled to Su Yu, "Hurry up."

Su Yu didn't hesitate. After observing for a moment, he quickly tore it off. Everyone watched this scene, which was a bit strange, but the atmosphere was cheerful.

The timeline for Han Guoguo was even shorter. Su Yu turned his head, and Han Guoguo tilted her head to glance at the paper. Han Yue covered Xi Xi's eyes, and Lan Yunxi, who was about to watch the commotion, asked, "Brother Yue, what are you doing?"

Han Yue couldn't help but remind him, "Use your teeth."

Lu Jinnan: "Damn, this is blatant cheating!"

"I didn't tell you not to bite; you're not toothless."

Finally, Han Guoguo followed her brother's advice, biting a corner of the paper and tearing it off. Her lips still touched it; it was soft, and her face instantly felt hot.

Han Yue released Lan Yunxi's eyes, and Lan Yunxi, like a curious child, asked, "Did you kiss?"

"no."

Lan Yunxi was a little disappointed because Yue Ge wouldn't let her see it.

It's much easier for women to tear each other apart. Su Xue thought she was very capable, so she sped up and tore it off in one go. However, because she was too fast, she only managed to tear off a corner.

Lu Jinnan knew he had lost again as soon as he saw the corner of his wife's mouth. He wisely stood up and went to the acupressure mat.

Accept the punishment... accept the ravages of fate.

The same wailing sounded again, and even the bodyguard standing to the side could feel Lu Jinnan's pain.

To be fair, starting with Lu Jinnan, Ji Hancheng also lost in the end.

Because Lu Jinnan and Su Xue cheated, they tore off two-thirds of the pieces in the first round, and by the time they got to Ji Hancheng, they couldn't even keep a corner of the pieces.

Ji Hancheng calmly took off his shoes, stood on them, and without Lu Jinnan's screams, calmly walked the whole way, put his shoes back on, and sat down again as if nothing had happened.

Lu Jinnan began to question his existence, feeling utterly insulted. "How many pairs of socks are you wearing?"

Ji Hancheng's ignoring him was actually quite painful.

Han Yue said, "I'll give you a dozen socks and you'll still complain. Don't expect too much from my free foot massage service."

After playing the game for about an hour, everyone started chatting, talking about what would happen after the baby was born, the future, the baby's name, Xixi's wedding...

And so, Tang Junyao and Su Xue went to and from get off work every day, and Ji Hancheng picked them up and dropped them off day after day. More than a month passed quickly.

Lan Yunxi's summer vacation is about to end.

"Xixi, is there anything else you want? Don't worry, we're not in a rush. You can leave whenever you want."

Having lived under the same roof for over a month, the Han couple had grown accustomed to the liveliness their future daughter-in-law brought to the Han family.

In the morning, Han Guoguo was reluctant to go to work, but in the end she left with a heavy heart.

Han Guoguo is used to watching dramas and variety shows with Xixi under the covers every night.

"Uncle, Auntie, I'll come again next time I have a holiday. I can also come when my sister gives birth. You can visit Blue City when you have time."

Lan Yunxi invited him with a smile, saying that after interning for more than a month, she had seen many things she had never seen before and her thinking had matured a lot.

Han Yue carried his suitcase down the stairs and put it on the ground. "You guys go to work, I'll take Xixi to the airport."

"Yes, Auntie, Uncle, you go to work. Yue-ge will take me."

Han Yue knew the girl didn't want to trouble her parents, so he said again, "You can go now, I'll take Xiao Xi there."

"Okay, tell the driver to drive slowly later. Xixi, let us know you're home safely."

Han's father gave instructions.

"Okay, Uncle, Auntie, goodbye."

Han's mother: "Goodbye."

Actually, there were still more than 10 days before school started. Lan Yunxi had already lived in the capital for so long and wanted to spend more time with her parents. After a summer vacation, her mindset had changed. If she really married into the family in the future, she wouldn't be able to spend as much time as she wanted with her parents. In fact, she would spend more time with Han Yue and less time with her parents.

At the airport, Black Tiger followed behind. Han Yue and Lan Yunxi walked forward hand in hand, pushing their suitcases. They had brought one suitcase when they came, but they brought three when they returned. One of the suitcases contained jewelry designed by HY Jewelry Company, which Han Yue's mother had prepared as a gift for Lan Yunxi and Shen Muyun.

There was also a box full of specialties from the capital, which Han's father and his family bought all of them so that the Lan family could taste which ones they liked and buy those in the future. They took care of every little detail.

The other was the suitcase that Lan Yunxi brought herself, which was full of clothes and cosmetics that Han's mother had bought for her.

This time, Lan Yunxi didn't cry when she left. Instead, she smiled and comforted Han Yue, "Brother Yue, I'm leaving. Remember to miss me."

Han Yue's eyes were dark. He had gotten used to holding the little girl while she slept every day. He raised his hand to stroke her face. "You really don't want me to take you home?"

Lan Yunxi wrapped her arms around his neck, and Hei Hu turned around. "Brother Yue, you can't go back on your word. Didn't we agree last night that I'd go back by myself? I have Hei Hu with me, don't I?"

After several hours of back and forth, Lan Yunxi felt that there would be many more separations in the future, and she had to learn to be as strong as Han's mother. In the future, she would be accompanying her Yue-ge and sharing his burdens, so she couldn't be so weak.

Han Yue gently stroked Lan Yunxi's hair and hugged her tightly. Over the summer, his little girl seemed to have grown up. She wasn't as clingy as before, and she had become bolder. This made Han Yue feel inexplicably uneasy. He was used to his little girl clinging to him. "Okay, Xiao Xi, I love you."

Lan Yunxi's muffled voice rang out in his arms, every word etched into Han Yue's heart, "Brother Yue, I love you too, so much, I'm waiting for you to come and marry me."

Han Yue: "Okay." Anytime.

As the plane took off, he looked up at the sky again, and saw his little girl slowly growing up.

Two hours later.

As soon as Lan Yunxi stepped into the Lan family manor, she took out her phone and sent a message to Han Yue: Brother Yue, I'm home.

Han Yue: Okay.

Lan Yunxi sent another message to Han's mother: Auntie, I'm home.

Han's mother: Okay, come visit anytime. If you want to come to the capital, I'll have Xiaoyue pick you up.

Lan Yunxi sent a happy emoji and replied: Okay, Auntie.

Black Tiger placed the suitcase in the living room and respectfully said to Lan Yunxi, "Miss, I'll be going out now."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"It's my duty." With that, he quickly left the living room.

Lan Yunxi didn't tell Tang Junyao that she was coming back today, afraid that her sister would come to see her off. Recently, Tang Junyao hadn't been sleeping well at night because of her pregnancy, and she didn't want her sister to worry.

I opened Fairy Fortress and sent a message: Sisters, I've arrived in Blue City! Welcome to visit!

Tang Junyao: Why did you go back?

Su Xue: Yeah, why didn't they tell us in advance? We were planning to go to the botanical garden this weekend.

Knowing the inside story, Han Guoguo pretended not to see it and didn't reply, because it was Xixi who told her not to say anything.

Lan Yunxi replied easily: It's okay. I'll definitely be traveling between Lancheng and the capital from now on. My sister and brother-in-law are very busy, so Yue-ge can take me.

My brother-in-law has to take care of my sister every day and also go to work. He works very hard. I feel bad asking them to drive me. Having worked before, Lan Yunxi already knows how hard it is. There is no easy way in the adult world.

Her comfortable life now is the result of her father, brother, and mother's hard work, and she needs to learn to be more sensible.

The girl had already gone back and arrived in Lancheng. What could Tang Junyao say? Even if she was reluctant, it was no use. She had planned to buy some things for Xixi to take with her when she went back, but the girl left without saying a word.

Tang Junyao: Don't tell my aunt about my swollen feet.

Lan Yunxi: I understand.

After sending the message, she looked up and saw Lan Yunchen standing at the bottom of the stairs, dressed in his pajamas. "Brother, what are you doing home today?"

Are you still wearing your pajamas? Didn't you go to work?

Lan Yunchen glanced at the three suitcases in the living room. "Why didn't you say you were coming back? Didn't Han Yue bring you back?"

"It's not that he doesn't want to take me, it's that I don't want him to. I'm already 23 after the New Year, I can't keep expecting him to take me home. He's very busy now that he's just taken over a company."

Lan Yunchen stood next to Lan Yunxi, preparing to help her carry her suitcase upstairs. "I heard from Han Yue that you've been interning for over a month."

Lan Yunxi quickly stopped her, "Brother, I can handle this weight myself." Sister Lu could carry three suitcases without any problem, so she could definitely manage one.

Lan Yunchen felt that his younger sister had changed a lot since she came back this time. Something seemed to have changed, and she seemed to have matured a lot. However, at the manor, Lan Yunchen did not need his younger sister to be so sensible, nor did he need her to do so many things.

As long as you are healthy and happy, that's all that matters.

Just then, Lan Yunchen received a text message on his phone. While he was getting his phone, Lan Yunxi had already carried her suitcase up the stairs.
