Lin Yu smiled and poured some tea for Shi Gao. “Did you ask me out for a meal as soon as you returned because you have good news to share?”
Shi Gao picked up the teacup and took a sip. She looked at the menu and raised her eyebrows, saying, “Aren’t you the one with good news to share?”
Lin Yu chuckled, “What good news would I have? My life’s a stagnant pool of water these days. You, on the other hand… Did you meet anyone you fancy during your travels abroad?”
Shi Gao pursed her lips and stated, “I heard that Gu Man failed to seduce Xi Cheng, revealing her true colors to your mother-in-law in the process. Not only did your mother-in-law kick her out, but she also brought forward your wedding date with Xi Cheng.”

“Everyone knows about it,” Shi Gao uttered, slightly jealous. “Congratulations, Lin Yu. So, how’s the wedding preparation going? Is there anything you need my help with?”
Lin Yu thought about it and answered, “Yes, I need you to choose the bridesmaid dress yourself. I’m worried you won’t like what I pick out.” “Of course, I’ll like what you pick out,” Shi Gao smilingly replied. “Your taste has always been the best.”
Lin Yu changed the topic. “What’s the situation on your side? The Shi family strictly guards their personal news and comings and goings, so it’s quite difficult for outsiders to know what’s going on in that family. I couldn’t find out exactly when Xiang Yang had left the Shi family’s place. The only one I managed to get a little more information on is Yun Nan, as she’s a public figure, after all.”
Shi Gao sipped her tea and impassively said, “That’s not surprising. Shi Ke has a sensitive job, so the Shi family will inevitably be on guard. Xiang Yang has already returned to the military barracks because Shi Ke has accepted a new mission. It must be important. Xiang Yang is protected and out of reach once more.”
Lin Yu frowned. “Would you want to live like that? That’s what you’re signing up for if you’re aiming for Shi Ke. I wouldn’t be able to stand it if it were me. How much energy can a man spare for his wife if he can’t even control his own freedom? Do you think it’s worth it?”
Shi Gao nodded and said firmly, “Of course. I love this man, and that includes everything he does. I’m willing to do anything for him.”
Lin Yu sighed, “I gotta hand it to you. So, what are you going to do now?” “I’ll wait!” Shi Gao quietly replied.
Lin Yu shrugged. “Alright, I’ll support you no matter what you do! I’m going to meet up with someone later. Wanna come with?”
“Who are you meeting?” Shi Gao inquired, not very interested.
Lin Yu smiled. “Yun Liu.”
Shi Gao raised her eyebrows. “How did you—what use is she?” Shi Gao was smarter than Gu Man, which was why Lin Yu liked her.
“A person who is despised by everyone will definitely be useful. She’s backed into a corner now that the Gu family dislikes her, and she offended Yun Nan and Shi Xiu. I’ll go and show my concern.” Lin Yu plainly stated her objective.
“She offended Yun Nan?” Shi Gao put down her teacup. “Alright, I’ll go with you.

“What do you think?” Han Yuan smugly asked as she proudly took back the betrothal gift list booklet that Kong Zhen had finished reading. “Come help me see if there’s anything else I need to add or take off the list!”
Kong Zhen had an admiring expression as she commented, “I don’t see what’s there to add or take off! I think it’s just perfect. I don’t think the weddings and gifts our three families have thrown for our daughters and daughters-in-law are as grand and perfect as the one you arranged! I can really see how much you value Lin Yu. People might think it’s your daughter you’re marrying off with the amount of attention and cash you spent on the betrothal gifts. Lin Yu is lucky to have a mother-in-law like you.”
Han Yuan was ecstatic to hear that. “I’ve watched that child grow up. Even though the Lin family has declined, it has nothing to do with her. She’s the girl I chose to be a part of our Xi family, so with or without her family’s support, she’s our family’s young madam. No one can disrespect her! It doesn’t matter if her family doesn’t back her because I’m her biggest backer!”
Kong Zhen sighed, “Seeing the close relationship between you two, I regret not picking a candidate to betroth Liang Han to when he was a kid like you did. That way, I would be preparing for a wedding now instead of having to worry about finding that jack*ss a wife!”
Right then, Lin Yu came in with Shi Gao and Yun Liu. Lin Yu hurriedly bowed and greeted Kong Zhen when she saw her before smiling and saying, “Auntie, what brings you here today?”
Kong Zhen chuckled, “I’m here because your mother-in-law wanted someone to show off to. I’ve been listening to her go on for the better part of the day and have been jealous for several rounds already. Luckily, you’ve returned to save me from this torture.” Then, Kong Zhen saw Yun Liu and smilingly asked, “Oh,
Miss Yun’s here too! Are you guys good friends?”
Yun Liu pursed her lips into a smile and nodded lightly. Lin Yu dragged her closer to Kong Zhen and said, “That’s right. Yun Liu and I are close as sisters. She’s a good and honest girl.. I would definitely recommend her to be our family’s daughter-in-law if Xi Cheng had a younger brother!”
