When mentioning the last engagement banquet, Lan Xi’s eyes flickered, "Nothing happened, you must have heard wrong."
"Huahua told me, she wouldn’t lie to me," Mu Yan said confidently.
At the time, things were chaotic on her end, so she didn’t ask Lan Xi much.
But seeing Lan Xi’s state now, she feels Lan Xi might be experiencing some pre-wedding anxiety.
Lan Xi shifted her gaze, changing the topic, "Speaking of Huahua, I just remembered something, her situation with Jian Shaohan might really be over now."
"What?" Mu Yan was slightly confused, why does it sound like a lot has happened during this period?
Lan Xi chuckled mysteriously, "A handsome guy has been pursuing Huahua lately; he was her elementary school classmate. His family background isn’t any worse than the Jian Family’s; I’ve heard he’s had a crush on Huahua for many years."
"Does Huahua like him?" Mu Yan asked.
"Probably, I asked Huahua, she seemed quite shy," Lan Xi laughed, "But if it were me, I’d definitely choose him. Jian Shaohan’s temper is terrible, only Huahua could tolerate him until now."
Mu Yan glanced at her and said lightly, "It seems your Brother Lu Hao isn’t exactly flawless either."
Upon hearing this, Lan Xi glared at her, "Must you always rain on my parade? Your Brother Jiang is the most perfect, is that okay?"
"You’re the one avoiding the topic. Fine, if you don’t want to say, I won’t ask. Let’s go, shopping; whatever you want to buy today is on me, to celebrate your engagement."
"Okay." Lan Xi smiled, but her heart gradually felt bitter.
Only Mu Yan, who doesn’t pay attention to gossip, doesn’t know about that matter.
Now, with the season changing, there are lots of summer clothes. After shopping for a while, Mu Yan went to the men’s section and bought some for Jiang Jingheng.
Lan Xi teased, "Every time you go out, you never forget to buy things for Brother Jiang. Could it be a guilty conscience, so you buy gifts to appease him?"
"Why guilty? What’s his is mine." Mu Yan looked at her in surprise, then took the chosen clothes to the cashier.
Watching her back, Lan Xi felt a bit envious. Mu Yan can be this confident, not because she’s boasting, but because her man grants her such power. More accurately, he loves her deeply and is willing to share everything with her, and she can feel his love and indulgence.
The two bought clothes and left the store; Lan Xi suggested checking out bags, rumored to be limited editions.
After just two steps, Lan Xi suddenly grabbed Mu Yan, "I don’t want to buy bags anymore; let’s check out shoes instead."
Before Mu Yan could speak, she was turned around.
Mu Yan was somewhat puzzled, glanced at Lan Xi, and increasingly felt something was amiss with her. She instinctively looked back, recognizing a familiar face instantly understanding something.
Lan Xi said nothing, and she didn’t ask. She accompanied her to buy shoes instead.
Lan Xi wasn’t sincerely interested in shoes, randomly bought two pairs, and then dragged Mu Yan to another area to shop.
Throughout the journey, they were silent; Lan Xi looked deeply troubled, nearly catching up to the car in front at the traffic light.
Mu Yan noticed her emotional imbalance, hesitant to let Lan Xi drive, suggested, "Why don’t we find a nearby place to grab a drink?"
"No need, it was just an accident, I’m fine," Lan Xi smiled at her, "Don’t be scared."
Mu Yan said nothing, looking ahead.
Lan Xi turned her head to look forward, her expression serious. As the green light came on, she stepped on the accelerator, and "bang," crashed into the car in front.
