In the evening, Xia Wan did not go to eat and drink, but instead, returned home early.

Seeing her grandma sitting upright in the living room, she subconsciously frowned, not wanting to be criticised by the elderly.

"Wait, come here." Grandma Xia called out to Xia Wan without anger, with a tone that did not allow for rejection.

Xia Wan had no choice but to turn around and return to the living room and casually sit on the sofa.

They thought that their grandmother would interrogate her about Xia Xue underreporting her, but Xia Wan was wrong.

"I heard from Little Lu that the company's crisis has been resolved? How did you do it? " Although Grandma Xia did not like girls, the person in front of her was her own granddaughter after all. She thought that the little girl would only be able to enjoy herself, but she never expected her to be of use to her.

Hearing that, Xia Wan frankly replied: "I married myself, and used the gift given by them in advance to make up for the company's losses."

After all, Grandma Xia was someone who had seen much of the world. Or rather, compared to Xia Wan's happiness, she was more concerned about the fate of the Xia Clan and the interests of the company.

"Yun Tian Group's CEO Ji Yun."

Grandma Xia thought for a moment, as if she was searching through memory for information regarding Ji Yun. After a long while, she finally nodded and said, "En, since we are getting married soon, then we better focus on it, and not stay home in the middle of the night."

Xia Wan curled her lips, and replied half-heartedly: "Got it."

Returning to his own bedroom, Xia Wan who was lying on his bed couldn't help but think of Ji Yun who had chatted with his grandmother about this future husband of hers.

Speaking of which, ever since her fiancé had signed a contract with her, he had never contacted her again. It was so cold that it was a bit creepy.

Logically speaking, the two were about to get married. Although they didn't have any feelings for each other, they should still get along more and get to know each other better.

Just as he was at a loss, Xia Wan's phone beeped.

Seeing Ji Yun's short message, Xia Wan's mood could not help but become a little down.

Her fiancé had decided the date and place of the wedding with only a single official text.

It was as if she were not a bride at all, just an invited guest, waiting for the wedding to begin to take place.

With his hands turned on, Xia Wan buried her head into the soft pillow, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, just as Xia Wan woke up, he received a second message from Ji Yun, telling her to choose her own wedding dress, dress and the like. He did not have time to accompany her.

Xia Wan could not help but mock herself, and thought to herself: She, as a bride, is really boring, as if the marriage is a separate matter, without any connections.

As the wedding ceremony is scheduled for the sixth day of next month, if you want to customize the dress, you need to select the style and cut it in advance. Xia Wan did not procrastinate. After casually packing up, she then drove to the "Jiayuan" wedding dress selection.

Looking at the many holy and beautiful wedding gowns, Xia Wan did not know which one to choose.

She saw that the other bride and groom had come in pairs to try on their dresses, and she, alone, had chosen a few at random.

Women liked their appearances, so much so that she wasn't even close to Ji Yun, so why should she care about Ji Yun's thoughts?

After exiting the "good fortune", Xia Wan felt a bit hungry, so she decided to choose a coffee shop nearby to have some afternoon tea.

Xia Wan walked towards a table that was close to the window and sat in a coffee shop that was of a rather high quality.

As soon as she sat down, her eyes turned obscure.

It turned out that through the window, her clear and beautiful eyes were staring straight at Xiao Muting who was walking out from the inn.

And beside Xiao Muting, there was a beautiful young girl. The two of them held each other's arms as if there was no one around.

Xia Wan's heart was stifled. The finger holding the coffee trembled, and almost spilled the thick liquid inside.

Withdrawing his gaze, Xia Wan however, was no longer able to remain calm.

It was really good, she was about to get married. Xiao Muting also had a girlfriend, they would not have the chance to reunite in this life.

Xia Wan's eyes gradually turned red, but when she lowered her eyes and became absent-minded, she did not realise that Xiao Muting was holding onto the girl, and was walking towards this coffee shop.

"Miss, please have a meal." The waiter was a young lad with a young and tender face, but when he realized that Xia Wan seemed to be crying, he did not know what to do, and frowned.

"Miss, what's wrong? Do you need help? " The young lad passed Xia Wan a napkin, his eyes revealing a look of pain.

This was Xia Wan's charm. Even if her personality was insolent and unrestrained, with her soft and graceful face that was covered with tears, the man would still be at a loss of what to do and would feel tender affection for her.

Waving his hands, Xia Wan immediately wiped the tears off her face, then smiled sweetly at the waiter: "It's fine, there's sand in my eyes."

, who was three tables away from him, noticed that Xia Wan was winking at the waiter in the shop, and his face immediately darkened.

"Mu Ting, what are you looking at?" The girl gently smiled, and followed Xiao Muting's gaze.

When she realized that Xiao Muting was actually spying on other girls, she immediately became unhappy and angrily pouted, "Hmph!"

The girl protested unhappily, and Xiao Muting finally retracted his gaze.

She smiled lovingly at the girl. Earlier, the girl pretended that her heart had quickly melted and had a sweet and timid expression.

"Don't be angry, I just saw an acquaintance."

The girl could not help but savor it, as Xia Wan shone brilliantly, "Familiar? could it be you, Qian Nvyou? "

Xiao Muting's smile stiffened at the corner of his mouth, as memories that he had forcefully buried surfaced in his mind.

At that time, he was in the prime of his life, and Xia Wan was pure and charming.

Seeing Xiao Muting looking towards Xia Wan's direction again, the girl was unhappy.

"Xiao Muting, what do you mean? "You asked me out, but you kept staring at other girls!"

The girl's voice was loud, causing the people in the coffee shop to cast curious gazes at Xiao Muting and his.

Of course, Xia Wan was also one of the spectators.

He never thought that it would be such a coincidence that Xiao Muting and his girlfriend also came to the café for dinner. Xia Wan was a little dumbfounded.

Misunderstanding Xia Wan's gaze, the girl was immediately enraged. She did not care about Xiao Muting's pulling, and after shaking him off, she aggressively arrived in front of Xia Wan.

"Miss, are you interested in looking at other people's boyfriends?" The girl's tone was provocative and her expression was harsh. It was completely different from her calm appearance a moment ago.

Who would have thought that the little girl in front of him, who looked extremely weak, would actually be so annoying? Xia Wan lightly smiled, "I say, young lady, if I didn't hear wrongly, it was your boyfriend who sneaked a peek at me, right?"

The girl's face was flushed from embarrassment.

Perhaps because she didn't know how to curse, the girl could only squeeze out one word after another, "Bitch!"

The power of her words wasn't great, nor was it small, but Xia Wan clearly hadn't done anything at all, so she was being insulted in such a manner.

Xia Wan stood up and faced the girl. She was much taller than the girl, and was much better in terms of aura and aura. "Try again," she said.

Sensing the cold aura in Xia Wan's eyes, the girl became fearful. However, with so many spectators watching, she could not bring herself to lose.

"Slut!" I told you what to do! "

"Pah!"

Everyone in the coffee shop started to shout as they looked at Xia Wan with their mouths agape.

Seeing that the situation was bad, Xiao Muting immediately walked over to the girl's side and stared coldly at Xia Wan: "Xia Wan, do you not want your mother's villa anymore?"

Xia Wan's eyes stung, her heart filled with endless bitterness.

It had to be said that since Xiao Muting was her childhood sweetheart, he naturally understood her the best. And the corresponding disadvantage was that the other party was also able to effortlessly grab onto her weak spot.

Seeing Xiao Muting standing up for her, the girl who was originally still afraid, had regained her arrogance at this moment, and she looked at Xia Wan with a pleased expression in her eyes.

"Apologize to my girlfriend." It was as if Xiao Muting was deliberately trying to insult Xia Wan and step on her weakness, causing her to have no choice but to lower her head.

With a mournful sneer, Xia Wan looked at the girl with scarlet eyes, and said word by word: "Right, No, Rise!"

Xia Wan's expression and voice were sinister, causing the girl to immediately jump into Xiao Muting's embrace.

Realizing that Xiao Muting seemed to be really nervous about the other party, the palm protecting the girl's shoulder slowly withdrew. Xia Wan had a dejected look, and some obsession in her heart was slowly collapsing.

"At least you're sensible." As he faintly said those words, whether it was praise or ridicule, Xiao Muting turned to look at the girl beside him, his expression extremely gentle. "Good, let's go back and sit."

This familiar persuasion caused Xia Wan's face to turn pale white.

Once upon a time, when she was willful and reckless, Xiao Muting also had a face full of doting, and patiently said "good".

As if she lost all support in her legs, Xia Wan slumped onto the chair with empty eyes. Looking at the table full of fine tea, she was not hungry at all.

The farce ended, but the crowd's discussion had just begun …

"Eh? That handsome man, was he the CEO of the Shang Ting Group, Xiao Muting? "Wow, it's really better to see than to hear!"

"Yeah, there aren't many handsome men with such outstanding temperament. Also, the one beside him is the Ye Clan's little daughter, don't you know? I heard that the two of them have been dating recently! "

"Eh …. Don't you know the beauty that was gobbled up by Xiao Muting just now? That was the famous green tea in B City, the daughter of the Xia family! I heard that she often dabbles in nightclubs and bars, and her private life is especially messy! "

"Really? "What a pity. He clearly looks so pure, but who would have thought that there would be such a difference on the surface!"

Xia Wan didn't care what others thought of her normally, but the guesses and discussions of the onlookers constantly entered her ears.

But the person who was sitting not far away was her beloved Xiao Muting. That white lotus girl was her love rival.

How could she sit still after being criticized and criticized like this in front of her love rivals?

When she heard the crowd point at Xia Wan, the girl looked at Xiao Muting with disdain: "Mu Ting, is that woman really you, Qian Nvyou? No wonder you abandoned her, you are simply a tigress, and a tigress who doesn't know how to clean herself! "

The girl purposely raised her voice so that Xia Wan could hear her clearly.

How could someone as shrewd as Xiao Muting not understand a little girl's mind? The first thing he did was to observe Xia Wan's expression.

After discovering that Xia Wan had really tolerated it for the sake of that villa, Xiao Muting slightly furrowed his brows as a hint of unease flashed past his eyes.
