Bai You looked at Yu Yan who was concentrating on driving, and unspeakable sadness filled her chest.
Why does such a beautiful person like her live such a miserable life?
As if she felt Bai You's gaze, Yu Yan glanced at her sideways. The pain in her eyes was not fake at all.
Yu Yan felt warm in her heart. It turned out that there was someone who cared about her feelings. She and Bai You had only known each other for half a year. It was good enough that she could feel sorry for her.
Yu Yan looked at Bai You, curled his lips, and said, "Don't show that expression. I'm not that miserable. In fact, I am lucky. In such an environment, marriage is necessary. My father has allowed me to be unrestrained for so many years, which is already a blessing. I am already satisfied enough."
Besides, the person she married was the one she had liked for three years. No matter how you look at it, she actually made a profit.
The only pity is that she is not in his heart.
But that's normal. In this world, there is no such thing as fairness and justice. It's good enough if there is any. She can't be too greedy. She wants not only the person but also the heart.
Yu Yan thought of a lot of reasons to comfort herself, but the sadness that surged in her heart still overwhelmed her.
Bai You also saw through her disguise, but she didn't expose it.
Everyone has their own camouflaged armor, which is their own protective layer.
Bai You didn't say anything else and remained silent.
Just like Yu Yan said, she had no choice in this marriage. Si Youli had no choice either.
All they can do is go with the flow and follow the arrangements.
Fate has arranged everyone's life, so all we have to do is follow it.
As for whether the future is bright or dark, no one knows.
"Has the date been set?"
What happened to Ning An was so unexpected that it caught everyone off guard.
All her thoughts were focused on the person who wanted to assassinate her. At that time, she had only one thought in mind, to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
Pay for Ning An’s life!
This thought was so strong that she ignored Yu Yan. By the time she saw the news, the Yu and Si families had already decided on this matter.
She just asked, but didn't know how to ask.
Actually, this was the first time she and Yu Yan met and contacted each other since Ning An's funeral.
There are some things that need to be asked.
Yu Yan nodded. "It's booked. It's on the eighth day of next month. It's a date specially chosen by both sides' parents. They say it's a very auspicious date, perfect for the occasion."
Bai You frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "Not engaged?"
"Unsure. The news has already been released in a high-profile manner. All we have to do is hold the wedding."
Bai You didn't say anything else. She always felt that this marriage was too hasty.
Even if a wealthy family like this arranges a marriage, there will be an engagement ceremony to officially announce it.
How could they hold a wedding without getting engaged?
It’s not that the show wasn’t grand enough, it was just too hasty.
It's like... I can't wait.
Bai You always felt something was very strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange about it.
Yu Yan turned her head and saw Bai You's dark brows. She smiled and asked, "Do you think it's too hasty?"
"I'm not being hasty, I just think we're a little too hasty. Even if it's an arranged marriage, there has to be an engagement. After the engagement, it'll take a month or two before we can prepare for the wedding. After all, wedding dresses, banquets, venues, guests, and invitations are all huge projects."
"But you only had one month from the time you decided on this to the time you held the wedding. It was too rushed and it felt a bit strange."
Bai You still expressed her concerns. She and Yu Yan had known each other for half a year, and she had always hoped that she would live a better life, instead of being in such a state of confusion and uncertainty, even about a wedding.
Yu Yan looked at Bai You, lost in thought for a moment, and then sighed, "Xiao Xi, you are so thoughtful."
Bai You was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Yu Yan to say that.
She smiled and said, "It's not that I'm being overly sensitive, I just feel that this is a major event in life after all, and I can't be so careless. It's better to think more about it. At least I can be responsible for myself."
Yu Yan sighed, seeming a little melancholy. "I'm really curious about what kind of person you will marry in the future. I wonder who will be so lucky to marry you."
Bai You hadn't expected Yu Yan to say this.
Who will she marry in the future?
After Bai You finished chewing on these words, Lu Yunxiao's figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
It only lasted for a moment, and Bai You soon came to his senses, shook his head, and dispelled the strange feeling in his mind.
Why would I think of him for no reason? That's crazy.
Bai You felt a little uncomfortable. She coughed, looked out the window, and said, "We were talking about your business, why are you dragging me into this again?"
If it weren't for the tips of her ears gradually turning red, it would be almost impossible to tell the impact of what had just happened on her.
Yu Yan was driving and chatting with Bai You at the same time, so it was naturally impossible for him to notice the subtle change in Bai You.
Yu Yan pursed her lips and said, "It's not that there was no engagement process, it was just cancelled."
“Wha…what?!?”
Cancelled?
Bai You really didn't expect this reply.
How can such a big thing be cancelled just like that?
Yu Yan nodded. "Yeah, it's cancelled. My dad went to the Si family and told them in person that they couldn't make it in time. An engagement is just an extra process. It doesn't matter whether it happens or not. Why waste that time? He's really impatient."
