Chapter 43

"Is that so? Then go and meet up with her already, she's probably waiting for so long."

Xiaohui nodded and left without saying a word. Meixiu sighs in relief and looks around, but didn't see Qi.

She sighs and picks out her phone, about to call the said girl when Qi suddenly appears out of nowhere.

"Good thing you're here, I was about to call you."

"Sorry, I got distracted. Let's go now?"

Meixiu nodded and follows her.

-

A few passed by, and Xiaohui was doing great in the company. Grandpa Zheng keeps on being impressed with her as she works harder than before.

With this action, Qiang and Mingxia were both upset. They have also been trying to grab Grandpa Zheng's attention but he only focuses on Xiaohui.

Today is also Meixiu and Xiaohui's wedding anniversary. Meixiu is nervous as Xiaohui might suspect that she is rich and can rent the whole Sky Garden just for her.

She's suddenly thinking of changing the location as she didn't want her wife to know everything.

"What's bothering you?"

Meixiu snapped out of her thoughts and saw Xiaohui in front of her with a smile.

"Let's go now?"

Xiaohui asks? Meixiu smiles at her and nodded, looking at Xiaohui's dress.

"You look beautiful as always, baby."

"What are you saying? Stop it already."

"You two take care ok?"

Grandma Peng suddenly interrupted. The young couple look at her and they both nodded their heads.

"Xiaohui, why do you still want to celebrate your wedding anniversary with this bastard? You two will eventually divorce each other."

Xiaowen quickly said. Xiaohui sighs and shakes her head.

"Ma, like what I told you. I won't do it. I don't have plans on doing it nor do I see someone worthy of me."

"Can't you see Tingfeng? He's been with you for a decade and would want to court you but then this bastard suddenly ruined it."

Tingfeng has always been beside Xiaohui since they met each other back in high school. The guy was starstruck when he saw Xiaohui's beauty.

He fell in love and would want to court the girl but she refuses, telling him she doesn't have any time for love.

So he decided to wait, and while waiting, Meixiu suddenly appears and ruin everything.

"Ma stop it already, we'll get going now."

Xiaohui quickly dismisses her mother and pusses Meixiu out of the house.

"Baby, do you want to go to the restaurant already?"

The sun was about to set and Meixiu wanted Xiaohui to let her see the beauty that they are about to witness at the top of the Sky Garden.

"Where else will you take me? Let's just go."

Meixiu nodded and grab the helmet to push it on Xiaohui's head. She carefully places it on top not to mess with Xiaohui's hair.

Meixiu then hops in on the scooter at Xiaohui sat at the back. The girl held her shoulder as they both drove off.

-

"Grandpa, I'm at the hotel already. I can see the Sky Garden but they seem like they made it frosted."

"What are you saying? Are you telling me that booking a hotel there is not worth it?"

"Yes Grandpa, I can't see much."

"Then what are you still doing!? Go and try to walk inside the Sky Garden!"

After speaking, Grandpa Zheng hangs up the call. Mingxia looks at the phone before she sighs and went out of the hotel.

As she went out, she saw a lot of people outside the hotel still looking up to see the scene that is about to unfold.

She groans and decided to walk toward the back of the hotel. As she manage to get through a lot of people, she got confused upon seeing two familiar people.

"Xiaohui? Meixiu? What are they doing here?"

Mingxia was about to follow the two when a hand suddenly stops her.

"What the-"

Her voice was muffled as a cloth was placed on her nose. She tries to not inhale it but in the end, she still did.

Her eyes started to blacken as the stranger grabs her and walks away from the scene.

"Meixiu, what are we doing here?"

Xiaohui whispers in Meixiu's ear as soon as they enter the Emerald Hotel. The smaller girl was weirded out as she saw staff lining up to bow down to them.

In the end, a man was standing with a bouquet in hand.

"Let's go."

Meixiu held Xiaohui's hand and they both walked toward the man.

"Happy 5th wedding anniversary, Ms. And Mrs. Song!"

All the staff greeted me. The man smiles and gives the bouquet to Xiaohui.

"This way to the Sky Garden, please."

The man said. Xiaohui looks at Meixiu in surprise at what the man just said.

"Sky Garden? How did you mana-"

"Baby, I know. Uh, a friend helped me get through all the things I needed and here I am now."

"Who's that friend? And can you even repay them? Look, what if we get in trouble with this?"

Xiaohui asks her calmly. Meixiu could only smile at her awkwardly and rubs her nape.

"I assure you we won't get in trouble. Let's just go and follow the man?"

Meixiu said. Xiaohui huffs before walking away first.

-

"Xiaohui, baby, take a bite of the food."

"No, we'll probably get in trouble eating these expensive dishes."

Meixiu puts her utensils down as the mellow music continues to play in the background. She stands up and approaches Xiaohui.

"We won't get in trouble, I promise you that."

She held Xiaohui's hands. The smaller girl looks away as she felt shy about their interaction.

"Shall we dance?"

The music quickly changes. Xiaohui looks up and met Meixiu's eyes, looking at her with adoration.

"But, you said you don't dance."

"Well..."

Meixiu stands up straight, removing her hands from Xiaohui's, and scratches her nape.

"... I do know how to dance but I'm not too confident to show you."

Xiaohui raises her eyebrows.

"Then why are you suddenly asking me to dance?"

"I wanna make this night special for you."

Meixiu said. Xiaohui puts down the utensils and stands up, holding Meixiu's hand.

The people around the hotel look at the scene unfolding. They could see the silhouette of the couple standing and slowly moving.

"I feel jealous! Look at the husband!"

"The is so lucky!"

"I wish I was up there witnessing the scene unfold! I'm curious who that man is!"

Meixiu puts Xiaohui's hand on her shoulder as she held her wife on her waist.

"Xiaohui, this is my gift for you. Do you like the venue?"

Meixiu smiles at the smaller one. Xiaohui looks around the place, as they continue to move with the music.

"You don't understand how much I appreciate it."

Xiaohui said, looking up at Meixiu with a big smile on her face. The taller girl smiles widely at her wife and snaps her fingers.

Xiaohui was confused. Until a staff entered the venue with a trolley.

The staff go to their side and left the trolley, bowing down to give respect to the couple.

Meixiu stops dancing confusing Xiaohui.

"What's in the trolley?"

Meixiu smiles as she grabs the cloth that is keeping her gift for Xiaohui to be hidden.

"I have a gift for you."

As Meixiu finishes speaking, she removes the cloth revealing the Diamond Tear Necklace.

Xiaohui looks at the necklace in shock and then at Meixiu.

"Are you that viral person who bought 10 million in cash!?"

Xiaohui asks her. Meixiu smiles nervously before she shakes her head.

"I found the same replica of the necklace and bought this for a hundred yuan."

"Are you lying? Why can't you tell me the truth?"

"I'm not lying, I'm telling the truth."

Meixiu said and held Xiaohui's hands.

"I won't ever lie to you, and if I did, it's for a good reason."

I'm sorry Xiaohui but I need to.

Xiaohui looks at Meixiu closely. She doesn't know if Meixiu is lying or not because she has been going out every night.
