Chapter 9：Madam Mo, I’m Resting Today

At eight o'clock in the morning the next day, Ye Banxia went to Jin Garden to get her family register.

She didn't know what kind of mentality she had, but she didn't tell Ye Hanyuan about what the family register would be used for. She randomly made an excuse and just said that she needed it for work. Those in Jin Garden were a family, but she and Hanyan were like outsiders who only had each other.

She returned to Clear Water Bay again and saw a black Bentley parked by the road from a distance.

Ye Banxia raised her hand and glanced at the watch on her wrist. It was 9:30, half an hour before the agreed time.

An inexplicable feeling flashed across her heart as Ye Banxia walked towards him quickly. She reached out and knocked on the closed window. The window rolled down slowly and revealed his handsome and flawless face.

"Didn't you say ten o'clock, why did you arrive so early?"

Mo Chenyan watched as she leaned slightly over the window, her long hair braided and falling over her left shoulder. She had a faint smile on her pale face, and it was finally not the aggrieved or frail look that she always had the previous times he had seen her. Her beautiful eyes were completely clear.

Suddenly he felt like he had abducted a female student to get married with.

His eyes darkened slightly. "I had nothing on today, so I came over."

"Oh okay, then you wait here while I'll go up and bring my stuff down."

"Ok."

Ye Banxia went upstairs and then back downstairs at the fastest speed possible. She changed into formal attire and did her hair. Although she hadn't wanted this marriage in the beginning, she had already made up her mind and wouldn't regret her past, and definitely wouldn't make herself become a ranting woman.

She opened the passenger seat's door. Mo Chenyan looked at her and an imperceptible stream of light fell over his deep eyes.

The car slowly drove out. Ye Banxia looked at the continuous stream outside the window and was inexplicably nervous.

In just a few days, she had experienced so many things. Now, she was even going to get married.

Mo Chenyan glanced at her lightly, and his eyes slightly congealed.

"Do you regret it?"

Ye Banxia froze for a moment, then turned her head. "Since it has been decided, I won't regret it." She smiled again after talking. "Moreover, there's nothing to regret."

At first, she had felt wronged because she didn't know him and their marriage had become a transaction. But now that she thought about it, it didn't matter who she married. She needed his money to save Hanyan and he seemed to need a Madam Mo, so they could satisfy each other's needs…

They arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau soon.

When they got out of the car, Ye Banxia followed the man and walked in slowly, inevitably a little nervous.

When it came to taking wedding photos, her anxiousness was even more obvious and she even felt like her palms were sweating.

Mo Chenyan glanced at her lightly. "What are you nervous about?"

Ye Banxia looked up awkwardly, pinching the corners of her clothes with her cramped hands. "It's my first time…"

The man paused for a moment. "… It's also my first time."

After talking, he smirked slightly. It wasn't a very obvious smile, but his thin lips formed a good-looking angle and his exquisite features became even more three-dimensional, adding a sort of softness to him.

Ye Banxia rarely saw him smile. At least in the past two days, she had only seen him smile once, and it was because he was acting in front of Li Hanchuan. Thus, she had always felt like this man probably lacked some facial nerves.

She was very distracted by him and even forgot what she had wanted to say.

Actually, she had wanted to say that this was the first time she had taken a picture with another man besides her grandpa…

…

When she took the little red book out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the sun was very strong, and Ye Banxia was unable to open her eyes.

She was married.

On May 18, on a sunny day, she got married.

She staggered over to the black Bentley and got in. The first thing Ye Banxia did was to open the red book.

In the photo, the bodies of the two people were very close because of the photographer's instructions. Mo Chenyan was so beautiful, noble and elegant, and she… well, she looked quite harmonious.

Ye Banxia stared at it for a while, during which Mo Chenyan turned around and glanced at her, but she was too focused and didn't notice it.

After a moment, she turned and looked at the man driving. "Mo… Chenyan, can I call you that?"

The man's eyelids twitched slightly and he looked slightly distracted. He clutched the steering wheel tighter, but Ye Banxia was sitting next to him, staring at his face, so she missed it.

"Didn't you already call me that?" he asked back.

"…"

Ye Banxia withdrew her gaze.

Suddenly, she felt like her husband was a little cold and it wouldn't be easy trying to have a good relationship with him.

"The wedding date will be set after your grandpa's funeral. I will let someone oversee it and then discuss it with you."

Mo Chenyan talked lightly, his deep, mellow voice running through her ears.

Ye Banxia froze for a moment, as if a warm current suddenly flowed across her heart, slowly spreading inside her.

In fact, she was quite worried about this matter. The funeral period lasted forty-nine days and she didn't know if he was willing to wait. She had wanted to find a chance to discuss it with him, but she hadn't expected him to mention it first.

Suddenly, she felt like her husband wasn't really that cold.

"Thank you…" Ye Banxia smiled. "Where are we going now?"

"To the hospital."

When the black Bentley stopped slowly at the hospital door, Ye Banxia opened the door of the car and was about to tell him "pay attention to safety" when the man spoke first. "I'll go park my car, you can go in first."

Ye Banxia froze. "Aren't you going back to work?"

Mo Chenyan glanced at her lightly. "Madam Mo, I'm resting today."

Ye Banxia's face instantly turned red.

…

She took the elevator directly to the ward where Hanyan was located. Ye Banxia opened the door and found that Ling Nian was already sitting beside the bed.

She looked at Ling Nian in shock. "Nian Nian? Didn't you go to work?"

Ling Nian retracted her gaze and snorted. "Hanyan is having her surgery today, how could I rest assured leaving you alone?"

In the morning, she had deliberately said that she was going to work so that Ye Banxia wouldn't nag at her. Ye Banxia usually didn't talk much, but when she nagged, she was like a mother-in-law.

Ye Banxia pursed her lips and walked in slowly, her beautiful watery eyes staring deeply at her. "Nian Nian, thank you."

"What?" Ling Nian glanced at her sideways. "Hanyan is also my friend, why should you thank me?"

Ye Banxia wasn't annoyed at all but smiled at her. "Yes, I know. Hanyan hasn't woken up yet, so I'll thank you for her first. When she wakes up, I'll tell her about it so she can thank you herself!"

Ling Nian's eyes were inexplicably wet. "Don't worry, Hanyan will wake up soon."

Later, no one spoke anymore. They remained silent beside the bed, and even the airflow was quiet and tinged with sadness.

About fifteen minutes later, Ling Nian suddenly broke the silence. "Oh yes, you came over at this timing, have you eaten?"

Before Ye Banxia had time to speak, the door of the ward was pushed open.
