Annie had assumed that Bai Xiaoruo and Xuan Mingyu had only known each other for a few months and hadn't been dating for long. Even with Xuan Mingyu's denial just now, Annie still believed that they must be friends. But she never expected that they were actually married!

Oh my god!

When exactly did this happen? They managed to hide it so well... No, not just well, it's unbelievable that Xiao Ruo suddenly became the president's wife of their company?!

This is absolutely terrifying! She's so young, how can she get married?

Annie still felt something was off.

"Isn't this joke a bit too much? Xiao Ru is only 18 years old, you two... can't get a marriage certificate, right?"

"Nothing is impossible if I want to."

Xuan Mingyu picked up Bai Xiaoruo from the hospital bed and turned to walk out of the ward.

Anne and her boyfriend were left looking stunned.

"Honey, did you hear what my boss just said? I didn't hear wrong, did I? They...really got married?"

"You heard me right, it's true, I also find it hard to believe that your friend looks so young... and then look at the two of us... wouldn't you say this is late marriage?"

Annie rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "So you think I'm too old? Go find a younger girl then! I wouldn't mind!"

"No, no, I wouldn't dare."

***

Xuan Mingyu stood at the hospital entrance with Bai Xiaoruo in his arms. When the car he had just called arrived, he put her in the car, but Bai Xiaoruo changed her previous dependence on him and moved to sit by the car door, keeping her distance from him.

Her gaze was fixed on the scenery outside the car window, her feelings a complex mix.

It was late at night, and the temperature was a bit lower than during the day. Although she was wearing a kimono that covered her up very well, he was still worried that she might catch a cold. Xuan Mingyu took off his coat and was about to put it on Bai Xiaoruo when she threw it back at him.

"There's no one else here, you don't need to act anymore."
