Shi Youxuan looked troubled, her hands propping her cheeks as she sat across from Sheng Hanyu.
She asked him for advice on how she could avoid attending tomorrow's engagement party!
Initially, Sheng Hanyu didn't think it was a difficult matter; if she didn't want to go, then she just shouldn't. There was no need to fret so much.
But Shi Youxuan told him it wasn't possible. Whenever she refused, they would bring up her father, and while she could refuse anyone and anything, she couldn't refuse her father.
"Then let your father not be able to find you."
"Huh?"
Sheng Hanyu had said it casually, but it sparked an idea in Shi Youxuan, and she thought it was a good one.
True to her word, she picked up her cute son and was ready to leave: "Thanks a lot, goodbye."
"Come back."
Her arm was grabbed; she couldn't run away. Moreover, because she had run with too much force, the backward pull sent her tumbling back into Sheng Hanyu's arms.
