Mu Xiaocheng had a bit of a cold, but she kept insisting on eating skewers and spicy food.

Meng Xunqian had no choice but to let her have a good meal.

Then Meng Xunqian forced him to take the medicine, and he seemed to come back to life.

When they returned home, Zhou Ningyi and Meng Yun happened to be there, and Mu Xiaocheng told them about her upcoming marriage to Ji Huaishen.

Meng Yun didn't react much. He knew his niece's personality well and could tell that Ji Huaishen had come to propose marriage sincerely.

Zhou Ningyi, however, said anxiously, "That Ji Huaishen, what... what does he want? Does he really just want to marry you?"

Mu Xiaocheng nodded; she decided not to tell Ji Huaishen about her business dealings.

If she tells her aunt and uncle, they will definitely stop her.

"Xiao Cheng, haven't you and Ji Huaishen never met before? How come you two..."

"Alright, I know what I'm doing." Mu Xiaocheng interrupted Zhou Ningyi, a smile spreading across her face, and then she pretended to yawn and said, "I'm sleepy, you guys should get some rest too."

After saying that, he went upstairs as if nothing had happened.

Zhou Ningyi sighed deeply: "The child has grown up and will be getting married in the blink of an eye."

Her voice suddenly choked, and her eyes filled with a misty haze.

"Oh dear, Xiao Cheng isn't even married yet, why are you feeling sentimental here? Come on, let's go back to your room and sleep."

Meng Yun grabbed Zhou Ningyi and forcibly took her back to her room.

Meng Xunqian stood there, and inadvertently noticed the family photo displayed in the living room.

The little girl in the photo has now grown into a beautiful young woman.

It's time to have your own life.

Someone else will protect her and keep her safe.

So, can he quit now?

Ji Huaishen.

He needs to meet the legendary Mr. Ji.

Hopefully, it's just as Chengcheng said.

It was just a transaction.

Mu Xiaocheng is a typical night owl; as soon as she got back to her room, she took out her phone and started browsing Weibo.

Because Shen Yiming helped promote her new comic yesterday, her fans have been urging her to update it today.

Her comics were serialized on a certain website platform, much like online novels. Thanks to the promotion by Shen Yingdi, her popularity skyrocketed.

Comics are different from writing because they take a lot of time to produce, so they are usually updated weekly.

Mu Xiaocheng replied to a few fans urging her to update, and then prepared to browse some Weibo jokes.

At this moment, I received another WeChat message from Ji Huaishen.

Aurora (Ji Huaishen): Is your cold feeling any better?

Huh?

He actually remembered that she had a cold?

Why are you so concerned about her?

They're not actually that close... right?

This concern made her very uncomfortable.

Mu Xiaocheng bit her finger, stared at her phone screen, and quickly sent a few words.

Little Orange (Mu Xiaocheng): Much better, thank you.

Aurora: That's good. My parents want to meet you.

Um? ? ?

!!

Is this the prelude to meeting the in-laws?

So fast!

No wonder I asked her if her cold was better!

Mu Xiaocheng suddenly became very nervous and replied timidly.

Little Orange: Can we wait a few days? Because I might not be fully recovered from my cold yet, and it would be a huge mistake if I infected my uncle and aunt. hhh (awkward expression)

Ji Huaishen seemed to know she was going to decline, and replied calmly, "They're only staying in Yundu for one day. Don't worry, I'm here."

Mu Xiaocheng stared at her phone screen.

Oh, she's afraid?

How could that be!

Only staying in Yundu for one day? Then there shouldn't be enough time to do anything to her.

Little Orange: Okay, then.

Ji Huaishen's smile deepened as he read her reply.

He looked at the photo frame on the bedside table. In the photo, Mu Xiaocheng was smiling sweetly.

He parted his thin lips slightly and said in a low, tender voice, "Goodnight, my little sweet orange."
