Wanâer was his wife, and Lu Hao was his close friend. They should become acquainted!
Lin Wan couldnât bring herself to chase Xiao Yichen away, so she decided not to. Her light makeup didnât take long to apply. After a brief moment, Lin Wan was ready.
They left the villa, with Xiao Yichen driving Lin Wan to Qinling villa.
Xiao Yichen had reserved the entire Qinling villa for the day. Luo Ziyan was the first to arrive and waited for over 20 minutes in the hall before he saw Lu Haoâs arrival.
After greeting Luo Ziyan, Lu Hao inquired, âHave Brother Zishen and Yichen not arrived yet?â
âUh-huh,â Luo Ziyan grunted in response, saying, âThe two of them are busy individuals and somewhat flashy. Theyâre bound to be fashionably late for the grand finale.â
Luo Ziyanâs tone was familiar to Lu Hao, who simply smiled and didnât say anything. He sat on the sofa next to Luo Ziyan and casually conversed while they waited.
After a while, Luo Zishen also made his entrance. Following their greetings, the three settled in the hall, awaiting Xiao Yichenâs arrival.
At 5.50 pm, Xiao Yichenâs car stopped at the main entrance of Qinling villa.
Xiao Yichen exited the car, and Lin Wan had already descended by the time he circled to the passenger side.
Xiao Yichen took Lin Wanâs hand and whispered, âLetâs go in.â
âOkay,â Lin Wan responded and entered the hall with Xiao Yichen.
Luo Ziyan was the first to spot Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan in the hall. He was taken aback and couldnât take his eyes off Lin Wan. She looked exceptionally beautiful.
âSheâs unbelievably beautiful,â Luo Ziyan marveled. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Luo Zishen and Lu Hao immediately realized from Luo Ziyanâs words that Xiao Yichen had brought his wife. They both turned in the direction of the entrance simultaneously.
Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan walked toward the three individuals in the hall. Lin Wan didnât immediately recognize the unfamiliar person in the group, but when her gaze met Luo Ziyanâs, she felt uneasy. She thought, âAm 1 applying the wrong makeup or choosing the wrong outfit?â
Xiao Yichen first glanced at Luo Zishen, then at Lu Hao. He heard a voice as he was about to turn to Luo Ziyan.
âLin Wan?â Lu Hao was flabbergasted but stood up in excitement. He fixed his gaze on Lin Wan and couldnât look away momentarily.
âIs it Lin Wan?â He found it hard to believe, but he still called her in amazement. âIs it her?â
Upon hearing the unfamiliar voice, Lin Wan looked at the person she didnât recognize. After several seconds, she still couldnât identify him.
When Xiao Yichen heard Lu Hao calling Lin Wan, he presumed that Luo Zishen and Luo Ziyan had informed Lu Hao of Wanâerâs name. Consequently, he didnât think much of it and continued to hold Lin Wanâs hand as they advanced.
But before they could reach the trio, Xiao Yichen noticed Lu Hao abruptly walking toward them, overcome with excitement.
Xiao Yichen was perplexed. He halted in his tracks.
Lin Wan was also puzzled. This person⦠seemed very agitated.
Lu Hao walked up to Lin Wan. Just as he stood still, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Wanâs arm. He asked excitedly, âWanwan, youâre Wanwan.â
Only then did Xiao Yichen realize that something was wrong with Lu Hao. When he looked at Lu Haoâs expression seriously, he realized that he was very nervous.
Lin Wan was equally bewildered. âWhat is going on with this person? Why is he calling me Wanwan?â
Upon observing the man in front of her attentively, Lin Wan studied his face. Her mind raced to recollect anyone who might fit the description.
Minutes passed, and finally, Lin Wanâs eyes widened in astonishment as she gazed at the man before her.. âAre you Lu Hao?â
