Sitting next to Nan Muyun was Nan Xunchuan’s mother, Zhang Ruiqin. Looking at their expressions, Wen Xi could tell they were not happy to see her, especially Nan Muyun, who paled as soon as she’d seen Wen Xi. 

Before Wen Xi could figure out why they had come, Wei Kexin took her arm and led her to stand in front of them.

“Now that Xixi’s back, Muyun, tell her what you have to say.”

Under the stare of Zhang Ruiqin, Nan Muyun reluctantly bowed to Wen Xi.

“I set you up… and had you sent to Weihai. I’m sorry.”

Her clenched hands, however, showed what she was really feeling.

Wen Xi was quite surprised. She knew that it had to have been some admirer of Nan Xunchuan that did it, but she didn’t expect that it would be Nan Muyun.

Considering Nan Muyun’s spiteful temperament, it would’ve also been impossible for her to apologize to her in person, unless somebody had shown the Nan family evidence of her crimes.

Who had done this for her?

Wen Xi raised her head, and stared at Muyun, her eyes filled with complex emotions. 

“Have I ever done anything to you that was worth the effort you put into kidnapping me?”

“Because you want to marry my…”

“Muyun!” Zhang Ruiqin shouted, and she cut herself off.

Even though she didn’t finish her sentence, Wen Xi had already gathered enough information to prove her speculations right. The rumor was true – Nan Muyun was in love with Nan Xunchuan.

After she had gotten married in her previous life, Zhang Ruiqin said it was only gossip, and soon after Nan Muyun left to study abroad, so she never paid much attention to the rumor.

“Because… Because I know you’re a medical student and want to test your skills.” Muyun corrected herself.

Wei Kexin didn’t give Wen Xi a chance to respond to her apology.

“Since that’s the case, we should just let it go. We’re all going to become one family soon anyway.” She said right after Muyun had finished speaking.

Zhang Ruiqin nodded with a smile, “Yeah, I feel the same. Muyun is still young and naive, please forgive her this time.”

“If you don’t mind, I would like to talk to Miss Nan alone.” Wen Xi said.

The three women were taken aback, Wei Kexin especially.

“My dear, what do you have to hide from your mother-in-law and I? I think you can say it in front of all of us.”

Instead of answering her, Wen Xi bowed her head politely and walked towards the balcony on the first floor.

Nan Muyun, aggravated, followed her.

When they got to the balcony, Nan Muyun lashed out.

“I apologized because my mother forced me to. Don’t expect me to actually be sorry to you!”

Wen Xi looked at her calmly.

“Are you in love with Nan Xunchuan?”

The question sent a shiver up Nan Muyun’s spine.

“You… you… What do you want?!” She stammered.

“I’m just reminding you that I’m about to become your sister-in-law. Whatever thoughts you may or may not be thinking, there are some thoughts should be hidden forever, especially from now on. As soon as we marry, you should keep a distance with your brother.” Wen Xi said calmly. “Oh, it would be great if you stopped making personal calls to him as well. If you need something, tell me, and I’ll let him know. ”

“You devil!” Nan Muyun’s face twisted in anger.

Wen Xi was still calm.

“Also, must I remind you that you were adopted? Know where you stand. After we’re married, you must be respectful to me, and I won’t stand for any misdemeanors. Understood?”

“What! Who do you think you are!” Nan Muyun raged.

“I’m soon to be your sister-in-law, whom you are about to respect and look up to, of course. Unless Nan Xunchuan has an affair with another woman, this marriage will go ahead as scheduled, and I will officially be your sister-in-law.” Wen Xi smiled.

Nan Muyun’s face turned dark, and an angry flame burned in her eyes.

“Take some time to reflect on yourself.”

Knowing she had gotten what she needed out of Muyun, she turned to head back inside.

Nan Muyun was hot-headed. Now that Wen Xi had aggravated her, she put it in her mind that she would try her best to stop Nan Xunchuan’s marriage to Wen Xi.

Wen Xi was hoping for the same thing.
