Yun Nan roughly read through the report and placed it on the table before she moved behind Fang Xi and rubbed her shoulders. “Alright, Fang Xi, my President Fang! You’ll be a bride soon, so let’s not bother with these messy issues! Why don’t we see if anything’s missing in your wedding proceedings?”
Fang Xi grabbed her hand and huffily stated, “I’m being serious here! Don’t change the subject!”
Yun Nan walked round to the front, squatted beside Fang Xi’s legs, and looked up at her. “Your marriage with Ye Kun is the most serious and important thing to me! Everything else comes after that! Fang Xi, you’re nervous, aren’t you?”
Fang Xi quieted down at that, and the no-nonsense front she’d been trying to put up crumbled. “Yun Nan, do you think Ye Kun and I will be happy?” Fang Xi’s words exposed her vulnerabilities and the worries tormenting her.
Yun Nan got up and gently hugged Fang Xi. She softly but firmly told her friend, “Yes, I do! You and Ye Kun will definitely be happy. You two will have a happy life and grow old together!”
The two girls quietly hugged each other. Fang Xi had her arms around Yun Nan’s waist as she said in a choked voice, “I can’t believe that such happiness would belong to me. The nicer Ye Kun and his family treat me, the more terrified I am. I’m too afraid of losing them. If I’m destined to lose them one day, then I’d rather I didn’t have them from the very beginning.”
Yun Nan released Fang Xi and pulled a chair over to sit beside her. She brushed Fang Xi’s hair behind her ear and smiled tenderly. “Fang Xi, you just have pre-wedding jitters. You’re so worried about losing Ye Kun because you love him too much.”
Yun Nan chuckled, “The two of you are truly a match made in heaven. Shi Nian told me yesterday that Ye Kun had dragged him out for drinks because he’s been having insomnia lately and has trouble sleeping every night. He’s worried that the happiness will all turn out to be just a dream, and it’ll be gone when he wakes up. Shi Nian said he’d never seen Ye Kun like that, and he teased him badly for it.”
Fang Xi laughed. “Really?”
Yun Nan nodded and remarked, “You guys look forward to your future together so much that you’re hesitant because you’re apprehensive about things going wrong. That’s all it is. The two of you have experienced so many hardships and even been through a near-death experience. What more verification do you need? If what you two have isn’t true love, I don’t know what is.”
She continued, “I know how you feel, Fang Xi. When you’re used to suffering, it’s hard to believe and accept when the April showers bring May flowers. Trust me, Fang Xi. You two deserve the best and most beautiful things in life!”
Fang Xi’s nervous heart finally settled somewhat after she received Yun Nan’s comfort. “Yes, you’re right. Auntie Lu Ying is so nice to me that I don’t even know how to repay her.”
Yun Nan smiled. “Auntie Lu Ying doesn’t need your repayment. She just wants you and Ye Kun to be happy. As a mother, she’ll be happy as long as you two are happy, and that’s all the repayment she needs.”
Fang Xi smiled embarrassedly and nodded before she patted Yun Nan’s hand. “Thank you, Yun Nan. I’m in a much better mood now. You’re indeed my lucky star!”
Shi Xiu and Lan Long had an enjoyable time together, and Shi Xiu rushed back to the company to work after setting up a time for their next meeting. Lan Long stood by the street and smiled as he looked at Shi Xiu’s retreating figure and Yun Innovations’ small and quaint courtyard in the distance. However, his smile didn’t reach his eyes.
‘ What a beautiful courtyard with many talents,’ he thought. ‘It’s hard to believe that there’s a big collection of beautiful and interesting girls in such a small place.’
Lan Long’s chauffeur stopped the car beside him and got out of the car before opening the door for him and bowing to welcome him into the vehicle.
“Young Master, where to?” the driver asked.
Lan Long stretched and—after a moment’s thought—answered, “Let’s go to the hospital.”
“Yes, sir,” the driver replied, smoothly turning the steering wheel. Lan Long closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat, reminiscing about the girls, who each had their own merits.
His phone vibrated. Lan Long picked up the call and lazily drawled, “Speak!”
“Boss, Lin Yu wants to see you. Also, Gu Man has convinced Xi Cheng to help her secure ‘ Vision ofEternity.”‘
Hearing that, Lan Long instructed, “Mm, hold Lin Yu off for a little longer. She’s not yet driven into a corner, so there’s no hurry. Tell Gu Man to try a little harder; ‘Vision ofEternity is hers if she manages to help us keep it—Shi Gao’s authority will be hers in the future.”
‘Yes, boss.”
After he hung up, Lan Long turned his phone over repeatedly in his hands. He then reached out and rubbed his forehead, muttering to himself, “What a useless bunch of idiots. I have to do things myself!”
The chauffeur cautiously glanced at his young master through the rearview mirror. Lan Long asked him, “Isn’t that right, Xiao Ran?”
Called out, the driver hurriedly replied, “Yes, Young Master! Young Master is smart and wise!”
Lan Long smiled..
