The engagement and the wedding shouldn’t be delayed.

Lu Xifu couldn't answer. He found it hard. Not because the question weighed him down, but because he didn't know what to answer. 

Yun Meiyi read his complicated expression well. Smiling, she shrugged her shoulders. "It's fine. I knew the answer already and that's why asking you felt foolish. After all, why ask when we both know the truth well? Our marriage has been for convenience where we came together to help each other." 

She said and a sad smile passed her eyes but she concealed it well. "There is nothing to worry about. We humans tend to keep forgetting things. But our memory is not that weak. I won't forget and think otherwise again." 

She said and then tried to pull her hand back. This time it easily slipped out from his grip. But just when she thought that he had let go of her, he catched her slipping fingers back before tugging her back, closer to him.
