Zuo Si paused for a moment. Her cheek flushed, and her smile tingled with the shyness of a young girl. When she turned to the microphone to speak again, her voice turned sweet, “Our wedding will be held on the ninth of next month.”

She reached out to Gu Yu, who was standing beside her and intertwined her fingers around his when she mentioned the word “our”. With their fingers intertwined tightly, and they raised it for the view of everyone in the hall.

Although the news about the marriage alliance between Gu Yu and Zuo Si had been going on for a while, it was never confirmed. This official announcement of their marriage came unexpectedly.

The news stunned everyone. The hall went silent for a few seconds, followed by an even bigger uproar from the floor. All the disinterested reporters were instantly revived. Reporters with cameras were shooting non stop at the couple on the stage, all trying to get the best shots they could. Various questions came from the reporters holding microphones.

“The announcement of the wedding is so sudden. Have you been making preparations all along?”

“What kind of wedding are you planning to hold?”

“Where will it be held? Will it be open to the public?”

Zuo Si remained silent, listening to all these questions.

She had no intention to answer them. Her assistant, Wu Qin, spoke on behalf. “Dear reporters, we will not be providing any answers to your questions for the time being. Today’s press conference ends here.”

Heavily built security guards came forward to stop the reporters from causing any havocs. Gu Yu and Zuo Si with no difficulty with their hand tightly intertwined all the time.

Xiao Chun’s eyes widened in shock at the marriage announcement. She stared at Xu Weilai. “Lil’ Weilai, did you know about this? Yu is really going to marry Zuo Si?”

Xu Weilai only gave her a rough account of what happened in the Zuo Residence when she picked her up the other day. She thought that Gu Yu still loved Xu Weilai when Xu Weilai told her how Gu Yu got injured trying to protect her. She did not expect that Gu Yu would marry Zuo Si. What about Xu Weilai? Did he do it out of guilt towards Xu Weilai, not love?

Xu Weilai lowered her eyes. “I just got to know, like you did.”

Zuo Si said nothing to her about this.

“Then…” Xiao Chun furrowed her brows. “Then, what are your plans?”

Xu Weilai shrugged. “What plans can I have? It’s not up to me to interfere with who Gu Yu wants to marry. We’re already divorced. It’s normal for us to marry whoever we want to.”

Xiao Chun studied Xu Weilai’s expression carefully, but found nothing from the serenity on Xu Weilai’s face. “Little Weilai, you’re right. I don’t need to worry about you if you’ve let go of the past relationship. I’m just worried that you have not, and had them all pent up in your heart because you don’t want me to be worried of you.”

Corners of Xu Weilai’s twisted, but she did not continue on the topic. “Alright, the press conference is over. You should go back to work. I want to see Grandpa Gu. Let me know what you want to eat earlier. I’ll make you dinner.”

Xu Weilai made it obvious that she did not want to talk about Gu Yu. Xiao Chun could only keep the words to herself, although she felt bad for Xu Weilai. She nodded. “Say hi to Grandpa Gu for me. Don’t cook tonight. I’ll pick you up after work. Let’s go eat something delicious.”

“Alright.”

Xu Weilai walked out of the Gu Corporation building and stood on the pavement, trying to hail a ride. A car stopped in front of her.

Zuo An’s gentle appearance appeared behind the window of the passenger seat as the window slowly wound down.
