“Yes, I’m marrying him,” Li Yuhuan said calmly. Since she had anticipated Song Ran’s reaction, she admitted the truth. There was no use hiding it when the news was going public soon.

Song Ran was so excited that she started to hit the bed, “Li Yuhuan, you pervert! He is like the cold-hot man!”

Li Yuhuan thought for a moment and said, “Ice? Fourth Brother is quite warm to me.”

Song Ran was speechless. ‘F*ck, f*ck, f*ck. This display of affection caught me off guard!’

Song Ran calmed herself down. “Lei Hanping is not bad. He has never had any scandals, even at his age. He is a good man.” She said in a somber tone.

Since graduating from university, Song Ran has been working in Xiang City. Her parents were government officials, and she had heard much about the military since she was young. The public saw Lei Hanping as someone who didn’t have flaws other than the fact that he was a little cold. But, if he could make her precious friend feel loved and protected, especially after that incident years ago, that man is doing right in her books.

…

Someone stopped Li Yuhuan as she was leaving the hospital.

It took her only a second before she realized that the stranger was someone she recognized. Lin Rou stood before her like a small, fragile flower growing between the pavement’s crack. Li Yuhuan raised her eyebrows at the younger girl, not at all surprised by her sudden appearance. Lei Hanping had warned that Lin Rou might come looking for her not too long ago, but she hadn’t expected her to confront her so soon.

The two of them chose a quiet restaurant to sit down in. Li Yuhuan ordered tea, while Lin Rou kept glaring at her face. If eyes were actual daggers, Li Yuhuan thinks that her face would resemble a deflated balloon from all that staring. After a few minutes of silence, the younger girl’s gaze gradually became disdainful, “Miss Li, do you think my Fourth Brother will marry you because he likes you?”

Li Yuhuan picked up her cup and took a sip of her tea. Her every movement exuded the elegance of a high-class family, “Why were you looking for me, Miss Lin?”

Since she lived in luxury with the Lei family for a few years, Lin Rou had become spoiled to the point of being arrogant. She couldn’t stand Li Yuhuan, a beautiful woman from a respectable and wealthy family. “My Fourth Brother was forced by his family to marry you. If you don’t want to live as a widow, I suggest you back off.”

‘Live as a widow?’ Li Yuhuan raised her eyebrows, “You know that you’re not in the position to say this to me, don’t you?” She calmly said.

“Why do you care what my position is!” When Lin Rou noticed that her tone came out a little harsher than Li Yuhuan’s, who hadn’t even raised her tone once, she tried to reign back her annoyance, “Let me tell you, if you have any sense of shame, you should leave my Fourth Brother!”

Li Yuhuan responded with an “Oh” and casually flipped up her phone from the table. The screen revealed that she was still on a call, which had been going on for more than ten minutes. She giggled as she asked the man on the other end of the phone, “Fourth Brother, do you think I should listen to Miss Lin? Or should I listen to you and hold the wedding as planned?”

“Of course, you’ll listen to me,” The restaurant’s door jingled, and she saw Lei Hanping strode in.

Lin Rou’s expression immediately changed. She hurriedly stood up, “F-Fourth Brother, I…”

“You can go back first. The chauffeur is waiting outside,” Lei Hanping said to the younger girl. He ignored Lin Rou’s reddened cheeks and glassy eyes as he proceeded to sit down beside Li Yuhuan.

Li Yuhuan watched as Lin Rou wiped away her tears and ran out of the restaurant.

Her eyebrows slightly raised at Lei Hanping’s calm and composed demeanor, as if he hadn’t made someone cry just a few seconds ago. She raised her hand to order tea for the man before asking him, “Aren’t you going to go after her?”

Lei Hanping had just finished training when he received a call from Li Yuhuan. He didn’t have the time to change out of his camouflage uniform before he rushed over. Consequently, he stood out like a sore thumb in the casual-style restaurant. He took a sip of tea. His adam’s apple bobbed up and down, “You’re my fiancée,”

“It’s just an act. There’s no need to be so realistic. I think Miss Lin likes you too much. That’s why she wants to chase away all the women around you. After all, she’s been relying on you for so many years, and there’s no other woman besides her around you,” Li Yuhuan analyzed the situation rationally. She considered herself an observant person; she could tell what was pure lust and what was a genuine attraction. She and Lei Hanping were purely in a sexual relationship. There was no need for them to interfere too much with each other’s private affairs.

Lei Hanping turned his head to look at her but did not reply.

After finishing their tea, Lei Hanping and Li Yuhuan returned to the hotel she was staying at. He went to the bathroom to shower while Li Yuhuan sat in front of her laptop and sorted out the scripts for the interview tomorrow.

Footsteps came from behind her, followed by the familiar scent of rose shower gel. “You can delete this question. I won’t answer even if your people ask,” Lei Hanping’s slender finger pointed to the question on Li Yuhuan’s screen. She glanced at the question and moved the mouse to delete it without another word. In an interview, she had always respected the other party’s wishes and would not force them to answer any question they did not want to answer.

“Why are you so obedient?” Lei Hanping commented off-handedly, seemingly in a good mood. He walked to the coffee table and lit a cigarette, “I’ll bring you to try on your wedding dress after the shoot tomorrow.”

“What time?” Li Yuhuan asked.

“What time will you finish?” Lei Hanping asked.
