Luo Xiaoxi rested her chin on her hands and looked at Su Yicheng . “You worry too much . How is it that I would get in trouble if I continued my career?”

“You’ve made too much trouble . ”
“…” Luo Xiaoxi didn’t know what to say .
Su Yicheng then asked seriously, “Xiaoxi, why are you so eager to be a model?”
Luo Xiaoxi sat upright; she said with a serious look on her face, “It’s true that I initially wanted to be attractive and draw your attention . Now, however, I do like this job because I enjoy walking on the catwalk . Uh, I don’t care if I’m famous or noticed by the public, that doesn’t matter to me! I just want to see if I can handle it . ”
Su Yicheng thought for a while and said, “I’ll agree with you if you promise one thing . ”
If he would agree with her, Luo Xiaoxi could think over anything . She got close to him and asked expectantly, “What?”
Su Yicheng smiled mysteriously and kissed her lips . “I’ll tell you in a few days . ”
Then he stood up, put on his coat, and was about to go to his company .
Luo Xiaoxi said with disdain, “Nonsense! I’m not curious about it at all . ”
What she said was not what she actually had in mind . After Su Yicheng left, she began thinking about his words repeatedly .
Su Yicheng had never been that mysterious . What did he want her to promise?
Su Yicheng arrived at his company 30 minutes later when the office hours had just started .
Xiao Chen followed him to report the schedule that day and said, “Boss Su, it’s the eighth anniversary of our company half a month later . What do you think about an anniversary celebration?”
Su Yicheng smiled . “It’s necessary, of course . ”
From what Xiao Chen knew of Su Yicheng, there was definitely a reason for his smile . Xiao Chen suggested, “Shall I contact a planning company?”
“No . ” Su Yicheng raised his hand before Xiao Chen and said, “I’ll plan out the anniversary celebration activities myself . ”
“Uh?” Xiao Chen felt surprised for the first time . “Boss Su, are you… that free?”

“It’s very important to me,” Su Yicheng said . “I would be worried if I asked others to do it . ”
In order to operate and expand the Cheng An Group, Su Yicheng had seen ups and downs in the past eight years . To him, the eighth anniversary would be a key milestone .
Xiao Chen nodded and said, “Then we’ll cooperate with you . Do you have anything special to say?”
Su Yicheng said, “Don’t tell Xiaoxi about it . ”
He did not want Luo Xiaoxi to know anything about the anniversary, because he wanted to give her a surprise .
Xiao Chen guessed what his boss was thinking about . He smiled and said, “No problem! We won’t let her know a thing . ”
No one, including Su Jianan, would know about the plan except Su Yicheng and Xiao Chen .
After all, Su Jianan couldn’t help with anything even if she knew of it .
After two peaceful days, Su Jianan started throwing up in the morning . She would have refrained from vomiting just to not have Lu Boyan worry, since he needed to work .
However, she looked the same as when she was in her worst condition . She was too sick to sit up or lie down, unable to say a word .
Lu Boyan sent for a doctor . The doctor said he could do nothing, because vomiting during pregnancy was not a disease . He just suggested an observation .
Seeing Su Jianan suffering from heavy vomiting, Lu Boyan got mad and drove the doctor and nurses out . Then he turned to Su Jianan, feeling sad and helpless .
Su Jianan held Lu Boyan’s hands and managed a weak smile . “I’ll be fine in a few days, just go to work . ”
“Yuechuan can handle it . ” Lu Boyan parted Su Jianan’s black hair that was resting on her cheek . “I’ll stay with you at home . ”
His company did nothing to her sickness . Su Jianan vomited until the afternoon and ate nothing . The doctor had to give her a nutrition infusion .
It was heartrending for him, but he couldn’t do anything to help .
It became dark . Su Jianan seemed to be tired and fell asleep, which the doctor thought could stop the vomiting; that way she would feel better after waking up .
After a call from Su Yicheng, Lu Boyan decided to go out . He asked Aunt Liu to look after Su Jianan and to call him once Su Jianan woke up .

Then Lu Boyan drove to the club .
Instead of a private room, Su Yicheng booked a table on the third floor, from which they could have a panoramic view of the open space on the second floor .
He noticed Lu Boyan’s pale face, laid down the glass and asked, “Did Jianan throw up again?”
Lu Boyan finished the wine in the glass in one long swallow . He frowned and said, “She didn’t fall asleep until I came out . ”
Su Yicheng knew well how Lu Boyan felt then, because he wished he could suffer from the pains in Su Jianan’s stead, when seeing her vomiting violently .
He patted Lu Boyan on the shoulder and said, “I need your help . ”
Su Yicheng could have talked about it on the phone if it wasn’t important .
Lu Boyan guessed that Su Yicheng wanted him to help with something unusual, for Su Yicheng called him out especially for it .
After Su Yicheng finished his words, Lu Boyan knew he had guessed it and asked with a smile, “Why are you in such a hurry? Xiaoxi has just returned . ”
“You married guy would never understand me . ” Su Yicheng shook the wine glass . “To me, waiting for one day is like waiting for a year . ”
Lu Boyan made a call and sent a phone number to Su Yicheng . “His assistant will contact you tomorrow . You can also contact him directly if there’s any problem . ”
“Thank you . ” Su Yicheng proposed a toast to show his thankfulness .
Lu Boyan looked at Su Yicheng and replied, “It’s exactly what I want to say, and I want to thank you again and again . ”
Su Yicheng thought it interesting . “For what?”
Lu Boyan said, “For your taking care of Jianan . And, without you, I wouldn’t have seen her again . ”
It was Su Yicheng who made it possible for him to be with Su Jianan . So, it was him who was compelled to say thanks .
“If it were not for her loving you so much, I wouldn’t have agreed on her marrying you that soon . ” Su Yicheng smiled and said, “My decision turned out to be right . ”
Originally, he thought he could give Su Jianan a chance as she would marry nobody if it wasn’t Lu Boyan . It could not be better if they fell in love with each other as days went by . If Lu Boyan just wanted to please Tang Yulan, and did not love Su Jianan at all, then Su Jianan would have recognized the fact and given up .

It never occurred to him that Lu Boyan had already seen something in Su Jianan .
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed on her marrying Lu Boyan that soon . Instead, he would have only agreed on it if Lu Boyan pursued her with great passion and caused a sensation in City A .
Lu Boyan checked the time, realized that he had been out for more than an hour . With Su Jianan in mind, he decided to leave, while catching a sight of Han Ruoxi .
She sat at a well-concealed table alone, looking kind of unhappy; she kept smoking as if only the cigarette between her fingers could ease her pain .
Lu Boyan suddenly realized something . With a cold glance, he asked, “What else did Jianan say when she told you about Han Ruoxi and Kang Ruicheng’s cooperation?”
Su Yicheng thought for a while and said, “Nothing . But she said she didn’t understand why Han Ruoxi would cooperate with Kang Ruicheng . ”
Han Ruoxi was intelligent . She should know that it would ruin her career if she cooperated with Kang Ruicheng .
It was surprising that she did do that . Lu Boyan and Su Jianan had the same idea—Han Ruoxi was in Kang Ruicheng’s control .
Thinking of the dirty deals Kang Ruicheng made, as well as seeing Han Ruoxi’s manners at that moment, Lu Boyan had a basic understanding of how Kang Ruicheng was controlling her .
“I’m going downstairs . ”
Lu Boyan stood up and went to the second floor, then walked straight toward Han Ruoxi .
Han Ruoxi did not expect Lu Boyan to be there, or to go to her . She quickly brought herself to her best condition and smiled . “What a coincidence!”
Lu Boyan cast his eyes over the cigarette . She was temporarily at a loss, and put out the cigarette . “My role in the last film was a smoker . After that, I sometimes smoke when feeling unhappy,” she said and pointed to the seat across from her . “Why don’t you sit down?”
Lu Boyan pulled out the chair, sat down, and said without hesitation, “I got Jianan back . ”
Han Ruoxi went blank and then recalled the news spread in the media circle a few days ago—Lu Boyan and Su Jianan had reconciled .
She thought it was fake news for there were no reports about it . However, Lu Boyan himself told her about it, so it was true…
“We didn’t divorce at all . ” Lu Boyan added, and calmly had an eye on Han Ruoxi to see how she would react to the big news .
Han Ruoxi just froze for a second . She forced a smile and said, “Really? At that time, you seemed to be enemies, and I thought you had really… gotten divorced . ”
She, the Best Actress, perfectly hid all the confusions and hatreds surging within her heart with a forced wry smile .
“She never stopped arguing with me, but we weren’t officially divorced . Now I hope you can clarify the gossiping about you and me . Or else I’ll give a press conference myself . ”
The second half of Lu Boyan’s words implied a warning .
With that, he got up to leave, while Han Ruoxi abruptly responded with a sneer . “How would I clarify? Could I say that you can still recognize if it’s Su Jianan or another woman, even if you’re drunk?”
Han Ruoxi recalled the night of the annual Lu Enterprises’ meeting .
At first, Lu Boyan thought she was Su Jianan . But before kissing her lips, he sobered up, stopped touching her all of a sudden, then heartlessly pushed her away and said with a cold shout, “Get out!”
She was ready to risk everything since she was in his room, because she did not believe that a man would only love one woman .
However, she dared not to move for Lu Boyan stared at her coldly . Half an hour later, she had to leave because Shen Yuechuan would go to meet him .
Knowing that there were reporters outside the apartment, she went to the ground floor and left .
She decided to cause misunderstandings since she could not win Lu Boyan’s heart . What she wanted to see was a broken-hearted Su Jianan .
Then came the coincidences . She encountered Lu Boyan who was inspecting in the mall, and met Su Jianan by accident after going downstairs .
She witnessed Lu Boyan’s unrest when Su Jianan nearly fell down, as well as Su Jianan’s pleading eyes .
Then she realized that Lu Boyan and Su Jianan still loved and trusted each other, even if they said they had divorced .
She also realized that nobody or nothing could separate them .
Sure enough, she was right .
