Chapter 539: Chapter 539: Thoughtful
"Don’t worry, I know you are Xiaoxiao’s good friend and sincerely looking out for her. I understand and appreciate your concern, but let me put it bluntly! My marriage with Bai Xiao is something no one can easily destroy, otherwise, I won’t be lenient, and that applies to everyone."
Furthermore, I know how to cherish my own wife. I will protect Bai Xiao, and no one else needs to worry about it. Here today, I can only assure you that I will guard Bai Xiao thoroughly. I would stake my life to protect her." An Zhiyuan didn’t want to intimidate Liu Hong, but he ended up expressing these words anyway.
Liu Hong was embarrassed, An Zhiyuan’s presence was so commanding that it left her unable to respond.
"Alright, An Zhiyuan, since you are straightforward, I won’t say much more. I wish you and Bai Xiao a hundred years of happiness and a swift blessing of children. I’m looking forward to your wedding celebration."
Liu Hong was generous by nature, not hiding or holding back, speaking her mind openly.
An Zhiyuan glanced at Bai Xiao, closed the door, and went out to receive guests.
Seeing the door closed, Liu Hong hurriedly rushed over and locked it.
"You naughty girl, you clearly saw An Zhiyuan at the door, why didn’t you warn me? You made me embarrass myself in front of him."
Bai Xiao was laughing so hard she couldn’t catch her breath.
"And you have the nerve to blame me? I pulled at you twice just now, but you kept talking nonstop. What do you call that? Talking badly about someone behind their back and then getting caught red-handed?"
Liu Hong was fuming as Bai Xiao obviously sided with An Zhiyuan.
"By the way, you haven’t told me where your wedding will be held? In Capital City?" Liu Hong was always curious.
"Capital City!"
She didn’t elaborate on their wedding, not wanting to stress everyone out.
Learning that Bai Xiao and An Zhiyuan were going to stay and work in Yun Province, Liu Hong was slightly disappointed. She had hoped that after this time, Bai Xiao would be transferred back to their provincial city, considering Yun Province was incredibly far from where they were—truly a journey of a thousand miles.
It would be difficult for her to reach Bai Xiao if she needed her.
"Xiao, can you truly not transfer back to the provincial city?"
"From the way you sound, you really can’t bear to part. You’re lucky you don’t have a man; if you did, he might think you were up to something by the way you talk about another person!" Bai Xiao teased her.
"Fine, now you dare to tease me. You’re just taking advantage because I’m not married yet, aren’t you?" Liu Hong was visibly upset. Bai Xiao had become so bold after getting married.
"I’m telling you, hurry up and find someone to marry. Trust me, it’s not just me saying this; your parents are definitely going to try everything they can to persuade you to settle down soon when they visit."
Liu Hong’s shoulders slumped. "You’re actually right. My parents are here, and the first thing they said to me was to go back next year, have a blind date, no matter what, and find someone to marry quickly. I’ve been nagged by them all morning."
She was very annoyed.
He Weng’s ears perked up.
"You’re at the age to get married; if you don’t, it’s no wonder your parents are worried."
"You know my situation. After what happened, my heart is also dead. How can a woman like me possibly find a good man? I might as well live a simpler life by myself. I have money if I want money, I have a career if I want a career. Why do I need a man? I’m not relying on anyone to support me. With my health, you know how difficult it will be for me to have children in the future. Marrying anyone would just bring them trouble."
