The sleeping Xiaye felt like she was engulfed in terrifying darkness. Sruggling and suffocating, she felt cold and pain all over her body, especially the anguish buried deep within her chest.

She curled up and huge droplets of sweat appeared all over her forehead.

However, she could feel someone wiping her sweat off from time to time. Her hand was even gripping onto that person’s big, cool hand, and she could feel a slight human warmth from the palm…

She struggled and finally opened her eyes. Through her blurry vision, she saw the orange wash of the sunset.

“You’re awake?” His deep voice was filled with concern.

Xi Xiaye’s head was still feeling heavy with pain as she looked around after realizing that it was Mu Yuchen beside her. “Where am I?”

Her voice sounded dry and frail.

“This is Hospital T. You’ve been injured. How’re you feeling?”

Mu Yuchen helped her sit up and handed her a gla.s.s of water.

Xi Xiaye suddenly found herself drained of strength as well as a sharp pain piercing her left shoulder. Everything that happened earlier instantly played back in her mind and her whole body froze and her face went extremely pale.

She thought she would never be sad again, but when those memories kept replaying in her mind, her chest tightened.

She had lost almost everything. How could they still ask her to sign the contract? How could they still sacrifice her to marry someone?

She ran her fingers through her dark hair as she curled up her body and buried her head into her knees, wrapping both her arms around them as if she was trying to ball herself up in the safety of herself. She remained frozen that way.

Mu Yuchen just looked at her without saying anything.

After a while, Xi Xiaye suddenly remembered something. She looked up at him and said, “Didn’t you say we were getting married?”

Mu Yuchen was stunned for a moment. His deep eyes studied the girl with the pale face who still braced herself with a strong-willed gaze. Her expression was not as lost as before and she had her usual calmness.

“Have some water first.” Mu Yuchen handed her the gla.s.s of water in his hand again.

Xi Xiaye looked at him with her dark eyes as she took the gla.s.s and then laughed, “Are you regretting it?”

As she just finished her sentence, there was a knock on the door before Mu Yuchen could reply. A middle-aged man in a formal suit walked in with something in his hand. Behind him was a middle-aged lady who was probably his a.s.sistant.

“Master Mu!”

The middle-aged man noticed the two of them and walked over to bow respectfully and greet him. He stole an extra glances at Xi Xiaye on the bed, appearing slightly surprised and impressed.

Mu Yuchen nodded and looked at him indifferently. Then, he replied the greeting in his usual calm voice.

The middle-aged man nodded and quickly pulled a doc.u.ment out of his briefcase. “I immediately came over with the stuff after I got your call.”

He then handed the doc.u.ment to Mu Yuchen.

Mu Yuchen took it with his long fingers swiftly. He scanned through it and nodded before taking a pen from the middle-aged man. After signing it, he handed the doc.u.ment to Xi Xiaye. “Take a look at it. If there’s no problem, then sign it and we’ll be married.”

Xi Xiaye was stunned as she stared at him quietly. After a while, she took the doc.u.ment and saw it was a marriage contract. He eyes were drawn to his powerful signature at the bottom.

She hesitated for a moment when she lifted her hand. Raising her head and looking at him with unease, she was unsure how to proceed.

Mu Yuchen smiled with a mesmerizing express before chuckling. “Sign it, Mrs. Mu. I, Mu Yuchen, am a good guy. You won’t suffer any loss by marrying him.”

His laughter was filled with warmth and it made Xi Xiaye giggle. However, her movement accidentally pulled at her wound and she frowned.

“Be careful.”

Mu Yuchen leaned over to hold her.

Xi Xiaye sat up and looked at him in the eyes with a smile. Without any hesitation, she swiftly signed her name beside his and handed the doc.u.ment back to him.

Mu Yuchen took it back and studied both their signatures before handing it to the middle-aged man. “Would you be able to send us the marriage certificate by tomorrow morning?”

The middle-aged man nodded. “No problem. Leave it to me, Master Mu! Oh, right, we might need a picture of you both. I got Xiao Zheng to come over to take one!”

Mu Yuchen frowned. Then, he glanced at Xi Xiaye and she nodded. “Just take one. That’ll do.”

“Alright, it’ll be quick, Master Mu, Mrs. Mu!” The middle-aged man smiled and then spoke to his a.s.sistant, “Be quick, Xiao Zheng.”

“Okay!”

After a moment’s preparation, they took a photo for Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye as quickly as possible. The whole process took less than five minutes.

“Don’t worry, Master Mu. I’ll make sure to deliver the marriage certificate to you by tomorrow morning. We won’t bother you both anymore. Congratulations!”

The middle-aged man then left the room silently with his a.s.sistant.
