Two hands clasped tightly together, Xin Xiaozhen felt an overwhelming happiness. If she could, she would only hope for her mother to leave quickly, giving her and Chenxi a moment of peace. But that wasn't possible—there was still a mess that needed her to clean up.
She gave Yu Chenxi a comforting look, then turned to face Madam Xin. With courage, she said, "Mom, I know what today is. I'm just talking with Chenxi for a moment. I will attend the wedding."
But Madam Xin didn't believe her. "Don't lie to me. How could I not know what you're scheming in your heart? Let me tell you this—I don't care how that fool managed to survive, but if you want to leave with that fool today, it's absolutely impossible!"
Xin Xiaozhen didn't intend to leave with Yu Chenxi.
She hadn't forgotten Yu Jingrong's words—there could be no fleeing. The marriage agreement between the two families had to be settled. For the sake of her future with Chenxi, she had to endure it no matter what.
