“A year of knowing each other is enough to get married. You’ve been together for half a year. A year will pass in the blink of an eye after both your parents meet.”

“I never said I don’t want to get married. I just think things are progressing a bit fast. If we meet the parents, the next step will definitely be discussing marriage. They might even impulsively decide to have a wedding during the Spring Festival. I’m not mentally prepared for that yet.” Yang Ruoxi lacked any confidence in marriages. She wasn’t like Lin Wan.

In simple terms, Lin Wan’s change of mind about marriage was an accidental result of her ending up in the Li family. Both of their parents had experienced failed marriages. After the divorce, they abandoned their children. Lin Wan and Yang Ruoxi always thought that marriage just complicated things and harmed children.

It wasn’t until Lin Wan met Li Yanchen that she discovered that marriage could be so blissful.

“In this world, there are many types of people. Some people don’t even want their own children, while others treat unrelated children as their own. I’ve realized that we shouldn’t let our parents’ misfortunes make us believe that marriage can’t bring happiness.” Lin Wan felt that she was the perfect example of that.

“Look at me and Mr. Li. Well, at the beginning, I thought my life was over. I found myself in a cold and heartless family. But the truth is, we can truly change the course of our marriage through our own efforts. I changed Mr. Li for the better. Although it sounds a bit self-congratulatory, it’s true.”

“I’m not trying to boast. Li Yanchen was influenced by me, at least to some extent. What I’m trying to say is that sometimes, even when you are dealt a bad card in life, you can turn it into something good. Believe in yourself, and you can also have a good marriage,” said Lin Wan.

Yang Ruoxi narrowed her eyes. From Lin Wan’s philosophical wordy sentences, she could understand something. “I guess that’s true. We can take it one step at a time. If it doesn’t work out, we can always get a divorce. If we don’t have children, it won’t affect anyone.”

Lin Wan really wanted to pound her chest and stomp her feet. Even after all that talking, Yang Ruoxi didn’t seem to have understood anything.

“Has he mentioned wanting to go to your house lately?” asked Lin Wan. Yang Ruoxi blushed as she recalled the kiss by the window last night. “He already went there last night.”

“What? Didn’t you go to the hotel this morning?”

“He arrived yesterday. He came to my house to visit me, but I didn’t let him in.

You know, with father and grandma… And the main door was visible to all, so I didn’t want the neighbors to see. I told him to come to the back window.”

“Couldn’t wait, huh?”

“Hate to admit it, but he just took a glance from the window and left,” Yang Ruoxi lied.

“Yeah, yeah, just a glance. I believe you… like hell, I do! Your window isn’t high, climbing in would take just a minute.”

“He really didn’t climb in. I was worried that if my dad happened to wake up and catch us, it would create a bad impression. But this doesn’t count as visiting my house. He wants to meet my grandma in the afternoon, and I’m.. hesitating. Can you give me some advice?”

“Just go. Papa Yang and Grandma already know about him. Just tell them about it. Just say he just arrived. Maybe Grandma will even suggest letting him stay with you.”

“Meeting the parents is just a simple step, right? If I change my mind, will there still be room for me to back out?” Yang Ruoxi was conflicted.

Lin Wan held her shoulder. “My goodness, can’t you be a bit more positive? Why are you always thinking about divorce and breaking up? Have some confidence in yourself. You should be thinking about growing old together.

Meeting the parents will also give Tiantian a sense of security. It’s clear that he wants marriage. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought his family heirloom with him and told his family all about you.”

“But…” Yang Ruoxi wanted to say something, but Lin Wan covered her mouth.

“Don’t overthink. Aren’t you tired of imagining all the possible bad things that could happen in the next few decades? Live in the present. The fact that you two love each other is enough.” Lin Wan suddenly felt grateful for her time-traveling ability.

It was fate’s arrangement. Otherwise, she might have been as uncertain as Yang Ruoxi.

In the hotel room, Tiantian woke up. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and called Yang Ruoxi.

Yang Ruoxi’s face changed when she saw the request for a video call. She smiled brightly. “Tiantian!”

Lin Wan knew that Tiantian was calling, so she didn’t continue with their conversation.

“My darling, I miss you. I can’t sleep. When I close my eyes, it’s like I wake up to your presence. Your warmth is still on these sheets.”

The video call was on speaker mode, and Lin Wan smirked.

Yang Ruoxi just wanted to turn off the speaker, but she accidentally hung up on him out of nervousness.

In the hotel room, Tiantian saw the screen go black and thought there was a network issue. He called her again.

This time, Yang Ruoxi picked up the call on handset mode. Her face was still red.

Tiantian didn’t know that there was someone else near Yang Ruoxi, so he talked at length about their time together this morning.

Yang Ruoxi wished she could disappear.

“I’ll go check on Yanchen. You two continue your sweet talk,” she said.

“No,” Yang Ruoxi said hurriedly.

“Is there someone next to you? Who are you talking to?” Tiantian asked.

“It’s Wanwan. Fortunately, Li Yanchen and Auntie Bao are not here. Now, Wanwan knows I went to see you early in the morning…”

“We’re all adults. I’m sure she’ll understand. I miss you. I need you in my arms again,” said Tiantian.

Yang Ruoxi rolled her eyes. “You’re not tired?”

“I’m tired, but that doesn’t stop me from thinking about it. When are you coming over? I’m hungry.”

“Aunt Bao is almost done cooking. After we eat, I’ll say that I want to go to the airport to pick you up. I’ll bring you something.” Yang Ruoxi glanced towards the kitchen.

“Great! Can I visit your grandmother this afternoon?”

“I’ll give her a call and tell her that you’ll be arriving soon. I’ll test the waters and see if she’ll let me bring you home.”

“Okay. Otherwise, just say I took a cab from the airport. If you say you’ll pick me up, the journey almost takes three hours. I won’t be able to go to your house until evening.”

“I’ll be with you at the hotel in the afternoon, won’t I? We’ll time it properly to go back. I’m not leaving you alone there.”

“Oh, right, you come and accompany me. Okay, that’s settled then. See you later. Love you.” Tiantian puckered his lips in the camera.

At the entrance of the courtyard, Li Yanchen sat on a small chair with his eyes closed. He was resting.

Lin Wan leaned on his back. “What are you thinking about? You’re so quiet.” He reached out and pulled Lin Wan onto his lap. “I’m thinking about you..”
