Chapter 1032: 1017, Jue and Zhan’s Couple Extra (16) Chapter 1032: 1017, Jue and Zhan’s Couple Extra (16) The light aquamarine hem of her dress lifted gently as she ran, blooming like a lotus in the air.

Many people looked over curiously, and Lu Hui also noticed her daughter’s action. When she saw the person at the door, she smiled knowingly.

Being young is truly great!

Bai Jue watched the light aquamarine figure approaching him, a roguishly charming smile on his sexy lips, instantly captivating the hearts of many ladies present.

Running too hastily, and in high heels at that, Zhan Mingyan failed to notice and plunged forward. Just when she thought she was going to embarrass herself, a large hand caught her, pulling her over effortlessly.

That faintly discernible callus on his palm, she knew all too well.

“Even if you miss me, there’s no need to offer such a grand gesture as soon as we meet,” Bai Jue said with a teasing tone from above her head.

Zhan Mingyan steadied herself and, unusually opting not to argue with him, said, “I thought you wouldn’t make it back today.”

“What if I hadn’t made it back? What if someone decided to ignore me?” Bai Jue lightly brushed her nose, his tender action filled with immense doting, stirring the hearts of many heiresses standing nearby.

Zhan Mingyan huffed, unable to hide the smile in her eyes.

“However, you’ve become quite bold these past few days, running up to me in front of so many people. Are you planning to announce our relationship to everyone?” Bai Jue couldn’t resist teasing his wife.

Upon his reminder, Zhan Mingyan suddenly recalled the “foolishness” she had just committed.

Feeling the curious glances of the crowd, her cheeks burnt with a slight embarrassment.

In front of everyone, Bai Jue took her hand firmly, his deep voice incredibly reassuring, “Alright, there’s no need to be embarrassed. After all, you’re destined to be mine.”

“Let go of me, people are watching,” Zhan Mingyan whispered.

“Grandfather Zhan is waiting, I still need to wish him happy birthday.” Bai Jue held her hand without letting go, leading her towards the elder Mr. Zhan.

“Grandfather Zhan, happy birthday!”

Grandfather Zhan patted his shoulder and showed a kind smile, “Yanyan has been distracted all evening, worrying that you wouldn’t make it back in time.”

Zhan Mingyan glared, “Grandfather!”

Bai Jue squeezed her hand tighter, his smile deepening, “Grandfather Zhan, the gift I have for you has already been sent to your house. Please check it when you return.”

Grandfather Zhan stroked his beard and uttered his approval.

“Zhan elder, who is this?” a friend familiar with elder Mr. Zhan inquired from the side.

Grandfather Zhan chuckled heartily, “This is my granddaughter Yanyan’s boyfriend, Bai Jue.”

Bai Jue nodded slightly and after conversing with Grandfather Zhan for a few moments, he took Zhan Mingyan and walked away.

In no time, everyone attending the birthday banquet knew that the Miss of the Zhan Family had a boyfriend, shattering the hopes of those Aristocratic Families who desired an alliance with the Zhans.

In a corner, Lou Xin watched Bai Jue and his companion walk out to the terrace, a dark glint of resentment flashing in the depths of her eyes.

Zhan Mingyan, let’s see how long you can gloat.

On the terrace outside, Zhan Mingyan leaned against the railing, turning to look at the person beside her, her lips curving up, “Is everything settled in M Country?”

“Mhm,” Bai Jue nodded lightly.

“What about the gift?” Zhan Mingyan held out her hand, expecting the promised present.

Bai Jue pretended to have forgotten and apologized with a smile, “I forgot to bring it back from M Country.”

Hearing this, Zhan Mingyan gracefully withdrew her hand, showing a tinge of disappointment.

“After the birthday celebration ends, come with me to a place,” Bai Jue said warmly, feigning ignorance of her disappointment.

Zhan Mingyan hummed in acknowledgment, “Where to?”

Bai Jue smiled mysteriously, “It’s a secret!”

As the celebration concluded, Zhan Ze and Lu Hui went back with Grandfather Zhan, while Zhan Mingyan was whisked away by Bai Jue.

Under the rich ink of the night sky, the bustling streets gradually became deserted.

After a busy day due to the celebration, Zhan Mingyan soon fell asleep in the car, drowsy.

Seeing this, Bai Jue pulled the car over to the side of the road, then grabbed a blanket from the back seat, gently covering her with it, and stole a kiss on her rosy lips.

The white sports car cruised at a uniform speed on the spacious road. Bai Jue thought this might be the slowest he had ever driven a sports car in his life.

All because he didn’t want the person beside him to feel even the slightest jolt.

The morning sun had just risen, and the waves tumbled, stirring up countless ripples of broken gold.

When Zhan Mingyan woke up, the salty scent of the sea lingered at the tip of her nose.

She shifted her body and rolled down the car window, streams of golden light pouring in, making it hard for her to keep her eyes open.

She raised her hand to shield her head, squinting sleepily towards the outside.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh––”

The sea lapped against the rocks, creating layers of waves.

How long had she slept?

Where had Bai Jue gone?

She rummaged for her phone, checked the time, and saw that it was only around six o’clock.

She had actually slept in the car all night.

With a slight movement, her neck felt a bit sore and numb.

She pushed open the car door and got out, rubbing her sore neck, “Bai Jue!”

Where had that guy gone off to.

“Bai Jue!”

She yelled out loud, with only the sound of the waves in reply.

Zhan Mingyan frowned and took out her phone to call Bai Jue.

The next second, the sound of a phone vibrating came from inside the car.

Her gaze flickered towards the inside; Bai Jue’s phone had been left in the car.

“Where did he run off to,” she muttered.

Oh well, might as well make the best of it.

Thinking this, Zhan Mingyan put the phone back in the car, then took off her shoes, gathered up her skirt, and stepped barefoot onto the fine, soft sand.

The azure sea and the magnificent sunrise, everything was just perfectly beautiful.

The cool sea water elicited a comfortable sigh from her.

In the distance, Bai Jue was approaching with breakfast he had bought, glimpsing her silhouette; a hint of mischief flashed through his eyes as he deliberately lightened his footsteps and walked closer.

Zhan Mingyan, immersed in the waters, had no clue that someone had already come up behind her.

“Hey!”

Bai Jue called out loudly, startling Zhan Mingyan so much that she shuddered, losing her balance and falling to the side.

“Ah!”

With a swift extension of his strong arm, Bai Jue easily pulled her back.

Zhan Mingyan collided with his firm chest, feeling like her nose was about to break.

Hiss.

“What’s wrong, did you hit yourself somewhere?” Bai Jue said, seeing her furrowed brows and inwardly cursing his luck.

Shoot, he had taken the joke too far.

“Bai Jue, are you asking for a beating this early in the morning?” Zhan Mingyan, recognizing it was him, rubbed her reddening nose, glaring at him in anger.

“Scaring people can scare someone to death, don’t you know that?”

Such a grown man, still playing such childish tricks, how childish can you be.

Bai Jue apologized with a smile, “I bought you breakfast, come and have some.”

Seeing it was for breakfast, Zhan Mingyan reluctantly forgave him.

“Why did you bring me here, and why didn’t you wake me up when I fell asleep?” Zhan Mingyan asked while sipping her milk.

“You were sleeping soundly so I didn’t wake you, it’s not like there was anything urgent,” Bai Jue replied. “Before I went to M Country, didn’t we watch the sunset together? Now we can add the sunrise to the list.”
