The simple sentence was a thunderbolt that sent Zhao Zicheng reeling with shock. His mind became completely blank for a moment. "W-what did you just say?"
H-he's… her fiancé?! But didn't she return? When did—
Zhao Zicheng turned his head back, only to see the woman—who had been so cold and distant toward him just now—smiling unconsciously at the sight of the newcomer. Her eyes were even sparkling with joy.
His heart immediately turned cold.
"Rong Xiu." Chu Liuyue—who hadn't expected his early arrival—walked over to him. "Why are you here so early?"
Rong Xiu raised his brows slightly and lifted the corners of her lips. "I naturally have to come early since I'm paying my respects to my father-in-law. Besides, I would've missed a good show had I come any later."
Chu Liuyue shot him a glare in return. Trust him to make fun of me when I've clearly rejected Zhao Zicheng.
