“It seems that Pei Xiuyuan did not care about that either. So, I have kept quiet about it.” He did not even care about it. She found it unnecessary to voice it out.
“Then, don’t think about it anymore.”
“Okay.”
Although Lu Man would want the kid if she found that she was indeed pregnant. But, she felt that it was not a good time for the baby to come now given how things were between her and Pei Xiuyuan. But, she would never think of getting rid of the baby. She just wished that she would not get pregnant.
So, she looked forward to her period every day. It was almost time. She waited impatiently and nervously.
Lu Man was not someone who put her heart on her sleeve. But, Pei Xiuyuan was an attentive man. He cared about her deeply. He could easily look right through her. Moreover, she seemed quite worried.
“Why? What’s wrong? Is it something related to your job?” Her sole worry would be her job now.
“No, my job is fine.” Although her workload in Pei Enterprise was so much heavier than her previous job, it was fine for her given that she loved challenges.
She did not dwell on her relationships with her colleagues either as long as they work together professionally. As time went by, they would realize her true abilities.
“Then, what are you worried about?”
“I’m not worried about anything!” Lu Man replied seriously.
Pei Xiuyuan’s eyes darkened. He did not say anything anymore.
He thought that they had become closer now. But, she was still pushing him out of her world.
Lu Man understood his facial expression by now after being with him for some days.
She knew that he was angry.
She went forward timidly and grabbed his elbow after some hesitation. “Are you angry with me?”
“No,” the man replied calmly and emotionlessly. But, he looked like he was indeed angry.
This man seemed a bit withdrawn.
Lu Man sighed and decided to be frank with him. “I do have some worries lately.”
Pei Xiuyuan waited patiently for her to continue.
“We didn’t have any protection on. I’m afraid that I might get pregnant.”
Pei Xiuyuan kept his silence. But, he seemed much angrier now.
Lu Man became very anxious.
Finally, he asked her. “Don’t you want my kids?”
This fact dawned on him and he was a little upset.
“No, I just feel that it’s not a good time for us to have kids just yet.” They were husband and wife. They would eventually have kids one day. She never thought of not having his kids.
Pei Xiuyuan was quiet again.
Lu Man looked at her. Suddenly, she felt that he was very far from her.
He was always gentle toward her just like a god-like being who warmed her. Suddenly, he had become cold and distant. She was slightly afraid of him when he acted like that.
“You’re right. It’s not the time yet.”
Suddenly, he smiled at her and his voice became gentle again. He went back to his old self, just like how he had always treated her. She could not help but wonder if it was only in her imagination when she saw his coldness just now. He appeared to be unapproachable and distant.
“Yes.”
“But, let’s keep the child if we do get pregnant.” Although it might not be the right time, he still wanted them.
“Okay.”
Lu Man replied without any hesitation. His smile deepened. He was soon warmed by her response.
Lu Man’s period came after a few days. She was instantly relieved.
She was happy about her period for the first time ever.
Pei Xiuyuan was neither happy nor disappointed. It was indeed not the right time for them to have kids. But, he was sad these past few days. It was because he needed to be like Liu Xiahui for the days to come. He could only look at her and hug her. He could not sleep with her.
It was excruciating!
Soon, it was July.
One day, Lu Man received a call from an unknown number.
“Lu Man, it’s almost the time for my wedding. Have you prepared your evening gown? If not, I’ll ask somebody to deliver one to you. Don’t you dare wear shabby clothes or refuse to come. I’ll ask somebody to send you here.” She had prepared an excellent present for Lu Man at her wedding. If Lu Man did not attend her wedding, all her efforts would be wasted.
Lu Man remembered now that their wedding was approaching when she heard Wang Yunxi’s voice, which was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.
It was not even one month yet. Why did she feel that Mu Yunhai and Wang Yunxi were people from many years ago? She had almost forgotten about them.
“Don’t worry. I’ll attend your wedding for sure!”
“Then, I’ll wait for you with Yunhai,” Wang Yunxi replied sweetly.
“Fine. Just wait for me!” She would totally wear a gorgeous dress by then and dazzle everybody there. She wanted Wang Yunxi to realize her own mistake by inviting her to their wedding. It would be Wang Yunxi’s worst mistake of all! Wang Yunxi would totally regret it!
When Lu Man reached home, she scanned through her wardrobe. Although all of her clothes were gorgeous, it did not match her expectations.
She decided to go shopping the next day with Qingqing. She wanted to go and buy a gorgeous dress and be the most beautiful woman at the wedding!
The next day, Lu Man left first because Pei Xiuyuan had to attend a meeting.
So, Lu Man and Hou Qingqing went shopping together.
“You must buy a gorgeous dress and dazzle everyone there! You must defeat her!” Hou Qingqing was even more anxious about it.
“Yes!”
They started out around six in the evening. They did not find the kind of dress they wanted even by the time the stores were closed.
They continued their hunt the next day but they came back empty-handed.
The third day was also in vain. They went to every mall in Haicheng but still they did not find what they wanted.
“What do we do now? Why don’t we fly to Hong Kong and take a look there?”
“It’s been only a month since I started working in Pei Enterprise. It’s not good if I apply for leave.” It seemed inappropriate if her job was affected because she wanted to take revenge on Wang Yunxi.
“You’re the boss’s wife. Why should you be afraid?”
“I’m not afraid. But, it’s inappropriate. Let’s just choose a dress from my wardrobe then.”
“We have run out of options.”
Liang Feiyue called them right at that moment, asking them if they had found what they wanted.
“No.”
“I have a friend and she’s a designer. She makes customized clothes. All of her evening gowns are quite dazzling. Why don’t we go and take a look?”
Both Lu Man and Hou Qingqing grumbled when they heard what Liang Feiyue had said.
“Why didn’t you mention it earlier that you know such a friend?”
“How would I have known when I only got to know her yesterday?” Liang Feiyue replied weakly.
“We’ve wronged you…”
Liang Feiyue replied weakly, “It’s the fact.”
The three of them went to the designer’s office the next day. Lu Man found the evening gown she wanted there. All of them agreed on that dress.
She did not bring the dress home because it would only be completed the next day. Finally, she had found what she wanted.
Now, she just needed to find herself an escort.
“Xiuyuan.” Lu Man sat beside Pei Xiuyuan and addressed him intimately when the dinner was over.
“Yes?”
“Are you free this Saturday?”

“Go to a wedding with me then!”
“Okay.”
He gave his promise so soon that Lu Man was in doubt.
“That… That’s my ex-fiancé’s wedding…” She had never shared her past with him since the day she had gotten together with him. He had never asked her either.
