"Canât stand it!" Qianxun slammed the table and stood up, "That was really well-deserved! I think it wasnât hard enough! It should have been stronger!"
Heather squinted her eyes and chuckled, "You should let me handle it."
Li Sinian laughed, "No, donât dirty your hands, itâs distressing."
"Honey, did you hear that?" Qianxun shouted excitedly like she discovered a new continent.
"I heard it." Gu Liancheng replied, not surprised at all.
Qianxun might not realize that before he met her, he was quite similar to Li Sinian. Because she is his sunshine, he was changed.
Hearing and hearing it firsthand are two different things.
No one was more impressed by Li Sinianâs image than Qianxun.
She still remembers the first time she met Li Sinian; she was scared stiff by his aura.
But looking at Li Sinian standing before her now...
Sorry, are we sure itâs the same person and they didnât switch actors midway?
"Qianxun, how long are you planning to stay in the Maldives?"
"The weather here is so nice! We were originally planning to leave tomorrow, but itâs so enjoyable, the skyâs so blue, the waterâs so clear, the environmentâs great, so we decided to stay an extra two days."
"Ah Nian! We should go to the Maldives too!" Heather suddenly grabbed Li Sinianâs hand across the table.
He was taken aback, "Now?"
"Yeah, while Qianxun and the others are still there, letâs go find them and hang out."
Before Li Sinian could nod, Qianxun was already thrilled, "Great, great! Letâs have our honeymoon together!"
"Letâs go..." Heather blinked her eyes cutely, "Letâs go and consider it an early honeymoon. The more, the merrier."
"..." He wasnât saying not to go, itâs just that this was quite a sudden decision?
She even acted coy, so he couldnât refuse.
But Qianxun urged eagerly, "Come on, Mr. Li! The Maldives is super beautiful, guaranteed to heat up your relationship quickly!"
"Got it, Iâll book the tickets after dinner."
"Great!!" Knowing they were coming, Qianxun was overjoyed, "Weâll wait for you here! You must come!"
"For sure~" Heather signaled an OK with her hand.
After the video call, Heather kept nagging, "Book the tickets, book the tickets."
"..." Li Sinian looked at her helplessly, "Letâs eat first, Iâve already asked Yi Yang to handle the tickets."
"So fast?"
"Seeing how anxious you were, I already messaged him, letâs eat before it gets cold."
She acted like a child excited to go on a field trip.
But he knew why she was so eager these days to go to all the places she wanted with him, she was afraid...
Of running out of time.
Afraid there wouldnât be another chance in the future.
At that moment, he felt his own helplessness.
He was someone who always got everything he wanted, always found a way to get things and hold them tightly.
Except for her, she was out of his control.
...
Yi Yang took them to the airport.
"Miss Hai, wish you a great trip. Mr. Li, donât worry about things here."
Outside, they still called him Mr. Li, otherwise, people might find it strange if they heard them addressing him as chief or something.
"Alright."
Because it was first class, they passed through customs quickly.
But when it was Heatherâs turn, the staff checking if the documents matched the person paused when looking at the passport name and at Heather in a mask, and said, "Miss Hai? Please take off your mask."
