The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

After one of the most awkward meals, Ji Xiehan suggested going out for a movie. 

Alas, Li Lanni wasn't in the mood, so he could only drive her home. It was already good enough that she had agreed to have lunch with him. He shouldn't ask for a yard when given an inch.

They were about to arrive at Li Lanni's home when she received a new message. It was one of those anonymous messages yet again. 

Only that this time, the content was different. 

[Sunday, 5 pm. Blossom Park. Let's meet.] 

Three short sentences. 

Li Lanni subconsciously glanced at Ji Xiehan. He was driving. 

Her previous suspicions about Ji Xiehan being the stalker were erased. He was driving right now, so he couldn't possibly have sent that message. 

She knew that one could always schedule a text message to be sent at whatever time they wanted, but then again, he didn't have a reason to act sneaky with her. 

Whatever it was, the main point was that the stalker had decided to reveal himself. It didn't matter who she thought it was anymore. 

What mattered was, could she really meet up with that person? 

Thinking about it, that stalker had only ever warned her of things that could go wrong or sent her messages that she could consider not threatening. 

It was only the fact that he was a stalker that made her afraid. 

Did this mean that he meant no harm? 

But that wasn't right. It was stupid to meet someone you only met online. In her case, it would be even more ridiculous. She had never spoken to that person. Communication had always been one-sided. 

Li Lanni raised an eyebrow and thought about the venue that the person had chosen. A public park.

No one would choose such an open spot to commit a crime, right? 

"What are you thinking about?" Ji Xiehan's voice interrupted her thoughts. 

Li Lanni snapped back and realized that the car had stopped. She looked ahead and smiled. "Oh, we're home." 

Ji Xiehan silently got out of the car and, like any gentleman would, circled the car and opened the passenger door for her. 

Li Lanni looked at him, stunned. She wanted to say that it was not necessary, but in the end, she let him help her out. It wouldn't hurt anyway. 

Unbeknown to them, Li Yuming was watching them from the first floor. She had just come to take a look when she heard the car engine sound, but was greeted with such a dazzling scene.

"Where are you going?" Li Lanni asked when she saw Ji Xiehan was following her. 

"I'll only be at ease if I deliver you to Aunty Li." 

Li Lanni remained silent. Man, that's a lame excuse. Why don't you just admit that you want my mom to praise you? 

Li Yuming rushed downstairs to receive them, a huge smile on her face. "You guys are back so fast? You should have used this opportunity to explore the city, go to the movies or the theme park, and have some fun!" 

Li Lanni: "..." 

Are you really my mom? 

She shrugged her shoulders and left to her room, leaving both of them with ' I am drained' as an excuse.

Li Yunming sighed; she really had spoiled her daughter. She apologized to Ji Xiehan and invited him in for a drink. Ji Yiehan turned it down politely and spoke with Li Yuming for a while before he left.

Upstairs, Li Lanni's mind was preoccupied entirely by that message. She was stuck, whether to go or not to go. She wondered whether she should tell her mother about it.

After thinking about it, Li Lanni didn't tell Li Yuming about the stalker. 

____

Soon it was Sunday; still, she hadn't decided what to do. Li Lanni spent most of the morning thinking about it.

In the end, she chose to wear comfortable clothes in case she had to fight. She tied her hair up and placed a pin close to her ear. It had  sharp pointed end.

It wasn't sharp enough to prick her scalp but she could use it as a weapon in dire situations.

She decided to let her mother know where she was going for precautionary measures.

"Mom, I'm going to meet someone at Blossom Park. I will be back within two hours at most." 

"Okay, take care." Li Yuming said. 

Li Lanni was more at ease. If two hours passed and she wasn't back, Li Yuming would know that something was wrong. 

...

At the same time, in a high-end hospital in the Northern District. 

In a VIP ward. 

The door was pushed open, and a skinny figure clad in clothes that were out of place in summer walked in. The door was then tightly locked.

The youth walked up to the figure on the bed. The man had been lying in the same position for months; no one knew when he would wake up. 

"Yang Su, long time no see." The youth suddenly said, looking at the man on the bed. "Do you remember me?" 

A pause followed, and the rhythmic beep could be heard clearly. 

"Oh, you don't? But I remember you. You are one of the people who conspired to hurt the person I care most about." 

V let out an eerie chuckle before running a finger over the oxygen mask. "Has no one told you? No one gets away with hurting Lanni. If you hurt even a strand of her hair, I will have your life." 

The hand suddenly stopped, and the youth rattled relentlessly. "Honestly, I've wanted to do this for a long time. I know you will not feel any pain. Compared to the pain Lanni felt, this is too light of a punishment. But I still want to do it. You're not useful anyway. You're just a waste of space. It's time you get out of the book." 

Taking a deep breath, V let out yet another eerie chuckle. "Goodbye, Yang Su. I'll send Ji Feifei to accompany you soon." 

As soon as the statement was out, V directly pulled the oxygen mask off. A few seconds later, he put it back on, mocking, "No one realized you just died. That's right. I messed with the system before coming here. How does that feel?" 

As though what had just happened was not murder, V simply left the hospital.
