CHAPTER 07 - Shopping with my arrogant fiancé
Xingyue's POV
"Are you married, Xingyue?" he asked with his eyes frozen open. My lips turned down as I giggled sarcastically. "It should be my friend. He generally jokes around like this. Excuse me, Han Shuo."
Bowing to them, I raged outside. Gripping my clenched hand, I went to the ground floor as I saw him checking on the wristwatch. "What's your problem, Xi Song? For what reason are you following me all over?" Turning his head, he looked at other people who were gazing at us. Holding my arm, he pulled me somewhat close as he murmured close to my ear. "Keep your voice low. My mom sent me here to take you shopping." Stepping back, I flipped my hair, folding my arms. "I don't need to bother a man to go shopping. I can do it without anyone else."Squinting his eyes, he passed me a ridiculing grin. "Miss, I have no interest too. I'm doing it for my mom. If it's not too much trouble, cooperate. I need to return to the hospital as well."Feigning exacerbation, I murmured. "This is my last time. We should go." With a blank face, I moved to the exit door as he followed me.Author's POV
Driving for a while, they finally arrived at their destination, a boutique.
It was not an ordinary one, but the only one who had the best wedding dress collection in the city. Walking ahead, they were welcomed by one of the staff ladies. "Welcome to our boutique. We have the best and new collection of wedding outfits. Do you have any demands?"Rubbing her chin, she thought for a while. "I don't think about my gown much. Just something simple yet elegant. I prefer comfort." Nodding her head, she smiled. "I know what will fit you best. Please come with me, and sir, you can wait on the couch."Walking away, they went to the changing area as Xi Song simply took his phone out and scrolled his social media. Playing a video, he stared at the screen intensely."Good day to all. According to the newest report, the most famous entertainment company's CEO resigned from his place as his son joined the organization. From the first day, he gained a lot of attention with his personality at work and his looks. He is trending in the third position on Weibo. We are going to reveal more about this young, handsome CEO in today's party."Clenching his fist, he ran his hands in the hair. "So you also gave up on our dream, Han Shuo. I thought at least you will chase your dream, but..."Xingyue's POV
Checking myself in the mirror, I smiled. "It's so beautiful." A beautiful white cathedral, train Lace Wedding dress with beading appliques. Turning back, I glanced at the staff lady, who was amazed by my beauty. "You are looking like a princess, mam. Sir will fall harder for you."
Choking in the air, I gazed down at the floor. "D-do I have to show him too?" Frequently nodding, she giggled. "Of course, he deserves to see her beautiful bride." Pressing my lips, I held my heavy gown as I walked outside, searching for him. Spotting him, I walked to him as I noticed his eyes were closed and his hands attached to his forehead. Chewing my lips, I sat beside him as I stared at the blank wall opposite to me."What happened to our Dr. Song? Unhappy?" Lifting his head, he gazed at me as his eyes widened.Xi Song's POV
As I turned to her, her beauty amazed me. She was looking like a white fairy in that gown. Glistering my eyes, I stared at her charming face as eyes drowned me in a magical world where I could only feel us. Her beautiful smile and my sarcastic laughs started imitating in my mind. A smile formed on my face when she snapped her fingers near my sight, making me flinch. "Although I'm pretty, don't stare at me like that, Xi Song." Clearing my throat, I answered. "Is it your habit to misunderstand everything? I was looking at the dress. It looks well designed." Pronouncing a sigh, she looked away with her arms crossed. Chuckling all over, I made her turn back. "Okay, don't be mad at me. I admit the one who wore this gown is looking beautiful, so I couldn't stop myself."
Pressing her lips, she flipped her hair as I rolled my eyes. "Don't be so proud, Miss Li. I got compliments daily. You are lucky to have me as your husband."Narrowing her eyes, she gritted. "Huh! Fiancé, not HUSBAND. Don't forget we signed an agreement. Stop imagining as I'm literally marrying you. It's all a formality for me." We were arguing when her phone rang. Picking the call, she quickly calmed herself as she spoke. "Han Shuo, do you need me?" Wrinkles formed across my forehead as I muttered. "Han Shuo? Does that mean she knew him? Is he the boyfriend she told me about?"CHAPTER 08 - A TRUE HEROXingyue's POVAs I started talking to Han Shuo, I noticed a weird reaction on Xi Song's face. It was more likely a suspecting face. Han Shuo: Can you come over here? I need a lot of help from you.Xingyue: Okay, I'm coming.Hanging the call, I glared at him. "What was that?"Crossing his arms, he raised his brows. "May I know who Han Shuo is?" Rolling my eyes, I answered. "You don't need to know about him, Mr. temporary fiancé." Walking back to the dressing room, I changed my dress as I took my purse and said goodbye to him. "Where's the bill? I'll pay for it." Pronouncing a sigh, he smirked. "Don't worry. I paid already." Grinding my teeth, I flipped my hair as I argued. "I can pay for my dress by myself, Mr. Song." "I know, but I couldn't let you pay Miss Li," he argued back. "WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM?" He added. "The problem is you are Fiancée. If y
CHAPTER 09 - CASE OF POISONXi Song's POVTaking out my gloves, I washed my hands as I came out. "What's the report of the patient?" Reading the file, Ling Xiao answered. "He is safe for now, but the poison in his body is in excessive amounts. I'm afraid we can't save him--" Cutting his words off, I shouted. "DON'T EVER SAY THIS AGAIN. We have to save him at any rate." Shifting my gaze, I glanced at a lady sitting on the nearby bench. Taking out my mask, I walked to her. "What are you doing here, Xingyue?"Lifting her chin, she stood up immediately. "How is the patient? Is he okay?" Taking a pause, I gulped. "The risk is too high. The toxin is poisonous, and it's found excessive in his body. It seems like a murder case." She knitted her brows as someone ran to us, shouting her name. "XINGYUE, IS EVERYTHING ALRIGHT?" Gazing at Xia Na, I shifted my eyes to her. She was looking pale. "How is he?" Sha

Humming, he replied. "Yeah, there is a way behind the hospital. But what happened?" Holding her hand, he directed her as Xia Na pushed her. "Xingyue, just go with him. Don't worry about anything, okay?" Glancing sideways, she nodded her head in agreement as they ran away. Taking his car, Ling Xiao waited for them near the gate. Waving at him, Xi Song approached him. "Thank you, Ling Xiao. Can you handle the matter?" Smiling at him, he stroked on his arm. "Of course, I'm the master after all. Don't be concerned, sister-in-law needs you more this time." Peeking at her, he bowed. "Hello, sister-in-law. I'm Ling Xiao. One of the best surgeons here--" Cutting his words off, he sided him. "Okay! Do your introduction some other time. Xi
CHAPTER 11 - FIND THE CULPRITAuthor's POVThe rising sun cast a rosy hue across the morning sky. Golden fingers of sunlight lit up the scene. Lifting her head, she glanced at the clock as it showed seven of the morning. Doing her daily pieces of stuff, she moved downstairs as she smelled something delicious. "Hmm!! It looks like Dr. Song woke up early." Chuckling at her comment, he placed the dishes on the table as he replied. "I'm a doctor. I woke earlier than others and stayed up at night too. Come and eat. I'll drop you at your office." Playing with her fingers, she brushed her hair back as she messaged Han Shuo. "Han Shuo, you don't need to come here. My cousin will drop me."Placing her phone on the table, she sat opposite him."Xi Song, I know it's tough for you to let a stranger stay at your place. So thank you for letting me in." Taking a bite of bread, he chuckled. "You're talking lik
CHAPTER 12 - PAGES OF PASTXi Song's POV"I promise her mom will protect her. I can't back off from it." Taking the file from his hands, I unopened it and started reading her details when something caught my eyes as I narrowed my eyes. Taking the phone, I dialed a number, not knowing if it still worked or not???: Hello?Gasping, I stammered.Me: You still use this number, Han Shuo.Clearing his throat, he answered.Han Shuo: It's my choice. What's the reason behind calling me?Me: I want to meet you. It's related to Xingyue's case.Han Shuo: Okay.

CHAPTER 13 - Signal of love?Xingyue's POVWalking as fast as I could, I arrived at an alley where I saw no other way to escape. Shivering, I turned back as I heard a man laughing like a maniac.He covered his face with a black mask as his hands were holding a knife. Gulping hard, I stepped back as he moved closer to me. "Is he coming to kill me?" I assumed.Stepping back again, my back clasped with the wall as I sweated.Horrified, I shut my eyes when he was about to stab me with the knife.Squinting, I felt a touch as I peeked with my half-opened eyes.Glancing back, I saw Han Shuo murmuring in pain. "HAN SHUO!!"Holding him in my arms, I looked into his eyes as he was about to close his eyes. "Keep your eyes open, Han Shuo." Tears formed in my eyes when the man again moved to me. But out of nowhere, someone appeared as he kicked him, pushing him out of the way. Lifting my chin, I gazed at the ma
CHAPTER 14 - Past or present?Xingyue's POVWalking out of the kitchen, I went near the dining table as I glanced at my phone. My eyes widened as I choked in the air. "Li Yubing?"Squinting my eyes, I cleared my voice as I picked the call.Me: Hello, Yubing. Long time no call or text.Yubing: I'm sorry, Xing. I didn't take care of you well. I failed to be an ideal boyfriend. But I promise once I come back, all my attention will be on you.Gazing down, I pressed my lips, assuming. "I don't know, Yubing. Will I be waiting for you or not?"Taking a deep gasp, I replied to him.Me: Focus on your business. We'll talk once you come back, okay?Yubing: Deal, Xing. I love you.As he said those words, it frowned on my spot as I wiggled.Me: Hmm! I'm hanging now, bye.Hanging the call, I exhaled noisily through my pursed lips when he asked. "What's wrong? Is there something
CHAPTER 15 - Visiting his familyAuthor's POVThe next day shone brighter than yesterday. Taking a leave from the hospital, Xi Song went to meet his mom along with Xingyue. "What do you think? Why do they want to meet us?" Keeping his intense look on the face, he replied. "I don't know. She didn't tell me anything."Nodding her head, they walked inside the place, which seemed exceptionally royal. With her mouth partially opened, she turned her gaze around. "Wow! What a place? I felt like I'm in a castle." Sneering at her, he stepped ahead when his mom noticed them. Waving her hand in the air, she shouted. "XI SONG, XINGYUE!! My babies are back."Wincing on a sudden voice rise, she glanced at Xi Song as he directed her. "She's my mom." Placing a hand on her mouth, she quickly planted her lovely smile while bowing to her. "Good morning, Aunt."Pulling her into a hug, she replied. "Call me mom, dearie. Y
