Nian Xiaomu’s hand froze as she was putting on her shoes and turned to look at the man behind her. “It’s late already. It’ll take at least half an hour to get there. Bengbeng has been out for a few days already, she must be tired. I know she likes to drink mocha, let’s stop on the way to get one for her. We’ll be there just in time!”

“…”

She had even remembered what kind of coffee Tan Bengbeng liked to drink but probably could not remember his likings at all.

Yu Yuehan started silently mouthing to himself, Tan Bengbeng is a woman, ten times in his heart. At last, he finally suppressed the urge to drag her back into the house and lock her up in the room, forbidding her from going out.

They had just started traveling when Nian Xiaomu happily took out her phone and started to key in the navigation route to buy the coffee.

At the same time, she muttered, “Don’t pull a long face, Bengbeng has done well. If not for her, the King of Hell would not have agreed to help concoct the medicine. If he can really treat grandfather, he’ll be the savior of the Mo Family. Shouldn’t you hurry and butter him up so that you’ll have one more backing in future? I remember my grandfather couldn’t bear to marry me off. What if he gets upset and forces me to divorce you…”

Nian Xiaomu suddenly started to tremble all over.

Shivering from the cold, she turned to look at the man beside her.

Yu Yuehan’s expression remained the same.

The veins on his hand, which he had on the steering wheel, started to pop out as he turned and muttered between clenched teeth,

“Nian Xiaomu, we’re not getting a divorce!”

“…”

She was just making a hypothetical statement, why did he have to threaten her so ferociously?

Nian Xiaomu reached out to pinch his face.

“A hunk like you is hard to come by, I wouldn’t be able to find another one. We’re not getting a divorce.”

“…”

Although Yu Yuehan was rather indignant that he had barely managed to secure his status in the family with his good looks, from a pragmatic point of view, he was glad he had at least managed to do so.

As long as she did not want to get a divorce from him, it was good enough.

When they were done buying the coffee and had arrived at the harbor, they suddenly received a call from Tan Bengbeng.

“The weather on the seas are changing drastically. Qi Yan just told me that our cruiser may not enter the harbor on time today. It may be delayed for half a day.”

“Are you guys alright?” Nian Xiaomu asked in concern.

Only after hearing Tan Bengbeng explain that they were only delayed by half a day and there had been no accident, did she rest assured and hang up the phone.

After the line was cut off, the weather in City N started turning gloomy as well.

Dark clouds enveloped the sky and very soon, rumbles of thunder sounded and heavy rain started pouring down.

The downpour was huge and within a few minutes, turned into torrential rain.

With the accompanying strong winds, the combination made one unable to even keep their eyes open.

Yu Yuehan removed the outer jacket of his suit and covered it over Nian Xiaomu, pulling her closer into his arms.

The two stood at a sheltered corner at the harbor and were trapped there for the moment.

The huge waves crashing on the seas created rain showers in mid-air, presenting a magnificent view for them.

“The car isn’t parked too far. When the rain eases off, we can run over.”

Yu Yuehan was afraid that she would get a cold and hugged onto her tightly as he muttered with his thin lips slightly apart.

Nian Xiaomu did not speak and merely rested in his arms, meekly nodding her head.

She suddenly thought of something and raised the cup of coffee in her hand.

“Do you want to watch the sea view over a cup of coffee?”

“…”

He had not forgotten that she had bought that cup of coffee especially for Tan Bengbeng, so he was definitely not drinking it!

“It’s fine if you’re not drinking it. I’ll drink it myself.” Nian Xiaomu cast him a glance and muttered as if she had read through the slight unhappiness in his heart. She purposely lifted the lid of the coffee cup and lowered her head to take a sip, licking her lips in enjoyment.
