Chapter 196: Chapter 196 When are you planning to have the wedding? Chapter 196: Chapter 196 When are you planning to have the wedding? Yuan Xi arrived back in City A at nine o’clock in the evening.
Both children were already sound asleep. Yuan Xi picked up the sleeping Lele, and slling the milky scent on the child, felt as if all her exhaustion had disappeared at that mont.
No matter the external disturbances, in the spring night with a gentle drizzle outside, the room, lit by a nightlight, felt extraordinarily cozy.
Upon returning to her room, Yuan Xi saw a frantic ssage from Mi Yi. It seed that Mi Yi had only just realized that Ten Million Dollars had been squandered.
Yuan Xi let her phone ring without answering it.
The ssages from Mi Yi grew increasingly unbearable after his defenses were broken, and Yuan Xi simply blocked his number.
No more ssages from Mi Yi continued.
With another trip to Jiang City tomorrow morning in mind, Yuan Xi couldn’t be bothered responding to Mi Yi’s ssages.
Jiang City, Chu Family.
It was quite late when Yang Ying learned that Yuan Xi had returned to City A today. She imdiately called Chu Lin to hurry back to the Chu Family from Jiangye.
Upon seeing Chu Lin entering, Yang Ying asked, “Did you make your sister angry yesterday?”
Chu Lin replied, “With her temper, it’s already good enough that she doesn’t co to anger .”
Yang Ying said, “We owe her too much, too much to ever make up for.”
Chu Lin said, “I really didn’t make her angry. She probably returned to City A because she missed her children. Did you really need to urgently call back?”
Yang Ying scolded Chu Lin, “You’re going to be a father soon. How can you be out so late, mingling with Gu Hanchen in Jiangye? It’s different for Gu Hanchen. He’s not married, has no girlfriend, and can fool around, but you’re about to get engaged and beco a dad. Can’t you start acting like a father?”
Chu Lin exclaid, “I don’t want to be this dad at all.”
He never wanted this child in the first place.
Cheng Yue had joined Chuneng Group before him, while he was still getting experience in a branch office, and she was already the deputy director of the administration departnt overseen by Yang Ying.
When he moved to the Chuneng headquarters, Yang Ying arranged for Cheng Yue to work by his side—officially to help him, but in reality, to monitor him.
The Jack of Chuneng Group wasn’t easy to inherit, and Yang Ying wouldn’t trust Chu Lin who had just joined the headquarters, keeping him under strict control.
Cheng Yue was the one Yang Ying assigned to keep an eye on him.
Over these three years, Cheng Yue could be said to have been Yang Ying’s good monitor…
Hearing Chu Lin’s words, Yang Ying stood up and fiercely slapped his face, “If it wasn’t for Cheng Yue letting you off the hook, you’d still be in jail now! And now you dare complain about the child?”
Chu Lin received a slap and furrowed his brows, very irritable.
After giving the slap, Yang Ying warned with a frown, “I barely got Cheng Yue to agree to keep the child. If anything happens to the child, I won’t spare you!”
Chu Lin bowed his head in response, “Mmm.”
After watching Yang Ying return to her room, Chu Lin then got in his car and headed back to Jiangye.
In Jiangye, Gu Hanchen received a call from Mi Yi, who inexplicably scolded him. After the call, Gu Hanchen felt quite amused.
As Chu Lin walked in, Gu Hanchen gave him a teasing look and comnted on the red handprint swelling on his face, “Tsk, tsk, you say you, almost engaged, yet still coming to Jiangye, how could you not get slapped?”
Chu Lin glared at Gu Hanchen and irritably drank his booze.
Gu Hanchen patted Chu Lin’s shoulder, “It’s really pitiful after getting married, seeing how tightly you’re controlled. I’ll make sure to drag it out another seven or eight years before getting married, not foolishly rushing into it like your sister.”
Chu Lin dourly drank another glass of liquor.

Yuan Xi traveled between City A and Jiang City Mi Chen Headquarters for three days. After the big eting of the first quarter on Friday, she returned to City A.
Perhaps facing setbacks twice in a row, Mi Yi did not cause further trouble with Mi Chen.
However, Yuan Xi didn’t dare let her guard down.
On Saturday, Yuan Xi enjoyed a rare good sleep, which was disrupted by a fierce kiss.
Opening her eyes, Yuan Xi looked at Shiyan in front of her, “Didn’t you say your flight was in the afternoon?”
Huo Shiyuan said, “The issue was resolved, so I ca back early.”
Yuan Xi pushed him slightly, “I haven’t even brushed my teeth yet.”
Huo Shiyuan chuckled softly, “I don’t mind.”
Before Yuan Xi could say anything else, her lips were sealed by Huo Shiyuan…
Yuan Xi’s hands tightly clasped Huo Shiyuan’s, not having seen him for almost a week, she missed him so much…
After raining for nearly half a month, the weather finally cleared up on Saturday.
When Yuan Xi woke up again, it was already noon, and Huo Shiyuan was sleeping beside her.
Huo Shiyuan’s phone kept ringing, and seeing it was labelled ‘Dad’, Yuan Xi took it and answered.
“Dad.”
Huo Ting, hearing Yuan Xi’s voice, wasn’t surprised, “Are you two free tomorrow? If you are, let’s visit the cetery tomorrow.”
Yuan Xi said, “I’m free, but I’m not sure about Shiyan…”
Upon seeing Huo Shiyuan awaken, she asked him, “Dad’s asking if you’re free tomorrow. If so, shall we go to the cetery?”
Huo Shiyuan took the phone from Yuan Xi and said, “I’m free, let’s go to the cetery tomorrow.”
After Huo Shiyuan hung up the phone, he held Yuan Xi again in his arms, proving that a short separation indeed makes a reunion sweeter…
Yuan Xi, seeing that Huo Shiyuan was being playful again, said, “Stop it, I thought you were catching the afternoon flight and wouldn’t arrive until the evening, so I’ve promised Liang Suisui to go shopping with her this afternoon. I’m also planning to buy a dress for Chu Lin’s engagent party, as well as a gift.”
Huo Shiyuan sighed softly, “Shall I co with you?”
Yuan Xi laughed lightly, “If you co, you’ll just be a third wheel for and Suisui.”
Huo Shiyuan looked into Yuan Xi’s eyes and said, “Co back early, I’ll wait for you.”
Yuan Xi nodded and replied, “Don’t worry, with Lele and An An with , I won’t be out too late.”
Yuan Xi received a ssage from Liang Suisui and got up to do her makeup.
Huo Shiyuan noted that Yuan Xi seldom dressed up so delicately for him; it reminded him of their childhood days when they played alone, and whenever Chen Yuan or Liang Suisui ca to look for her, she would always run off to play with them.
Twenty years later, he was still the one being left behind.
Huo Shiyuan, sitting by Yuan Xi, said, “Doesn’t Suisui have a boyfriend yet?”
Yuan Xi, applying her eye makeup, replied, “Uncle Liang wants her to find soone who will marry into the family, but they haven’t found a suitable match. She got so annoyed that she escaped to City A.”
“But she did ntion she might have found soone she likes, didn’t go into details though, and I didn’t ask.”
After Yuan Xi finished her makeup, she bid farewell to the two children before heading to the shopping mall. The upscale shopping center was bustling with custors over the weekend.
Liang Suisui had already reserved a table at a French restaurant early on.
Arriving by Liang Suisui, Yuan Xi said, “Traffic was bad, sorry I’m late.”
Liang Suisui smiled and replied, “It’s alright, Shiyan’s back and you still ca to see , that’s really loyal of you.”
Yuan Xi smiled faintly, “How did you know he’s back?”
Liang Suisui said, “I saw it on Assistant Ye’s Monts; he posted a picture of City A airport and its location tag.”
Yuan Xi laughed, “When did you add Assistant Ye on Monts?”
Liang Suisui said, “The last ti Huo Shiyuan asked him to deodorize my car, I added him as a friend. Oh, by the way, your brother sent an invitation to his engagent party next week, are you going? If you go, I’ll go too.”
Yuan Xi asked, “You two are still in touch?”
Liang Suisui replied, “We might not be boyfriend and girlfriend, but we can still be friends… But if you’re uncomfortable with it, I’ll remove him and block him!”
Yuan Xi chuckled lightly, “Having an extra friend is always a good thing, no need to delete him for my sake. I’ll also attend the engagent party, that’s actually why I ca here today, to buy a dress for the occasion.”
Liang Suisui said, “I’m curious, your sister-in-law is pregnant, so why is it an engagent and not a wedding?”
Yuan Xi replied, “Perhaps they think a wedding would be too tiring with a child on the way, so they’re doing the engagent first, and will wait until after the baby arrives to have the wedding…”
Liang Suisui looked at Yuan Xi and said, “Speaking of which, you haven’t had a wedding ceremony either! Now that the children are already born, when do you plan to have it?”
