Mo Jin’s voice was so loud that Shi Guang had to peel her phone away from her ear right away. She waited for the former to calm down slightly before replying gently, “Yes, I’m getting married to Lu Yanchen.”

Mo Jin cursed under her breath, “No! Absolutely not! I’m telling you that I’ll not agree to this marriage!”

Shi Guang knew that her cousin would be against this from the start, and thus, she stopped her grandma and aunt from telling Mo Jin about it with the excuse that she would do so personally.

She pursed her lips. “Grandma really likes him.”

Mo Jin’s voice was deep right now. “But, have you ever thought about it? How can you marry him...! Do I need to remind you about what happened in the past one by one? He... had clearly already broken up with you!”

Shi Guang lowered her gaze, “Sister, I really don’t have the mind to care about all that at this point. Right now, all I want is for my sister to wake up and for grandma to be well. I don’t know whether getting married is the right choice or not, but there are so many people who are getting divorced these days. Even if I were to just get a marriage certificate with him just to please grandma, I don’t think that it’d be really bad.”

Mo Jin was really speechless as though she did not know how she should reprimand Shi Guang anymore. After going silent for a short while, she made up her mind. “I’m going back next week.”

“Mo Jin...”

Knowing what Shi Guang was worried about, Mo Jin interrupted her, “Don’t worry, I’m already done with my lessons. The reason why I had thought about delaying my return was to wait for the interview results. But, whether or not I wait for it here or back home makes no difference.”

Mo Jin was not the only one returning—even Huo Zhan, who had just returned abroad for less than half a month, had returned home.

This time around, he was looking really different from the way he had returned so flamboyantly the previous time; he looked really haggard. He did not even head home, tugging his luggage with him to go look for Shi Guang in school the moment he landed.

Looking at Huo Zhan who was rushing at her with his face filled with a wide smile, Shi Guang was totally caught by surprise. “Why have you returned?”

That question had Huo Zhan retracting his smile as he licked his lips, widening his eyes. “There’s definitely something, isn’t it? And something important at that. Why? You’re afraid that I’m going to bother you?”

“That’s possible!” Shi Guang smiled out speechlessly. “I’m not worried about you, just that something may have happened to you... Fine, I’ll treat you to a meal as a welcome for your return! Will that do?”

Huo Zhan curled his lips, “That’s for sure, of course!”

“What do you want to eat? Chinese or western food? Hunan or Zhejiang cuisine?”

“I want to have your home cooked meal.”

Shi Guang’s petite face frowned. “You couldn’t have returned to enslave me, could you?”

“Oh, look at how nicely I’ve always treated you, carrying you high up in my palms, afraid that you might come to any harm. But, I really want to cover you up with a plastic bag and whack right now. What an ingrate! To think that you would be hesitant toward making me a meal...!”

That complaint was filled with grumbles, and Shi Guang was helpless against it.

“Fine, fine. I’ll do it...!” She took out her phone and was ready to make a call.

“What are you doing?”

“Calling Li Fangfei? Getting her to join us...?”

“No!” Huo Zhan cut her.

Shi Guang looked at him suspiciously. “Why? You guys couldn’t have...?”

Huo Zhan sweated. “What are you thinking of? I just don’t want too many people to know that I’ve returned home.”

Hmm? Is that so?

Shi Guang did not think more about it and returned to the apartment building with Huo Zhan. Ever since school reopened, she had moved back to stay in the school, and the apartment was left empty. Because Huo Zhan did not want his family to know that he had returned, it was only natural for him to stay in the apartment.

When Shi Guang and Huo Zhan entered, Lu Yanchen’s tall figure walked out of the lift at that moment.

As though it was by instinct, all three of them came to a stop.

Even though she had already agreed to get married to him, Shi Guang had not seen Lu Yanchen at all ever since that day of the preliminary heats...
