“Yes, I swear, this will be the only time!”

It was obvious that Tang Chuan’s request made Su Yu feel uneasy.

For the first time, Su Yu, Qin Chu, and Tang Chuan worked together; they were quite dedicated to Tang Chuan’s proposal to Qin Ning.

After dinner, Qin Ning and the others went to sit in the living room. Qin Chu and Tang Chuan were still out.

“Sis-in-Law, why isn’t my big brother home yet?”

“You’re really worried about Tang Chuan, aren’t you?”

“No no, the thing is, he brought all my stuff to his mansion… I don’t have anything with me… not even my face wash and pajamas. What should I do if he doesn’t pick me up tonight?”

“We have everything here.” Huo Mian smiled.

“But I prefer to use my own stuff.” Qin Ning gave Huo Mian a weird explanation.

“It’s okay, if he really doesn’t come back, I’ll have someone pick you stuff up,” Huo Mian said on purpose.

Seeing Huo Mian say this, Qin Ning swallowed her follow up questions.

The truth was, she didn’t know that Tang Chuan was going to propose to her; neither of them had talked about it in a while.

“Qin Ning, how long have you guys been together?” Lu Yan suddenly asked.

“Almost a year.”

“Do you have plans to get married?”

“Um… I’m not sure yet. We haven’t really talked about it.”

“What if he cheats on you after he gets married?” Lu Yan asked on purpose.

“He won’t, Tang Chuan would never cheat on me.”

“Don’t be so confident, some men seem like gentlemen on the outside, but they’re actually monsters on the inside.”

“Auntie Lu’s right, you shouldn’t trust him too much,” Little Bean interrupted.

“You guys are acting weird today… why are we talking about cheating?” Qin Ning was immediately on alert.

“Oh, there’s a popular TV show called ‘The First Half of My Life’. The protagonist had a happy family, but her husband cheated on her. The mistress was very calculating and forced the couple into divorce. That’s why we’re talking about it.”

“Tang Chuan isn’t like that. I don’t care what he did before he met me, but he’s been good after we got together.” Although Qin Ning often bullied Tang Chuan, at times like this, she would defend him without thinking.

“But what if he really cheats on you? Would you play dumb?” Lu Yan continued on purpose.

“I… I never thought about that. If he really cheats, I would probably divorce him and go back to the U.S…”

“Let’s change the subject,” Huo Mian interrupted.

At this time, Qin Chu called. Huo Mian turned up the volume on her phone.

“What’s going on, Honey?”

“Mian, where’s Ning-Ning?”

“At home with us.”

“Oh, I don’t want her to hear this, go somewhere private.”

“Oh, okay.”

Everyone could hear what Qin Chu said, let alone Qin Ning, who was sitting right next to Huo Mian.

“What’s going on? Why is everyone being so mysterious?” she muttered to herself; something seemed off.

She followed Huo Mian into one of the guest rooms.

Qin Chu said, “We were going to head home when we ran into this woman. She seemed to know Tang Chuan. It was really awkward. He told me to come home first and then left with the woman.”

“Where did they go? Who is she?” Huo Mian asked.

“A really pretty woman and they definitely know each other. I wonder if they dated before… don’t tell Ning. I have people following them, they went into Conrad Hotel.”

“What? Conrad Hotel?” Huo Mian said on purpose.

Of course, Qin Ning heard their entire conversion. She immediately picked up her phone and dialed Tang Chuan’s number.

“Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is unavailable right now, please-”

“Your phone is off? I know for a fact that it’s charged. Tang Chuan, you asshole.” Then, Qin Ning rushed out of the manor, got onto Huo Mian’s Audi R8, and drove off.

“Sis, I told you. She believed it, didn’t she?” Lu Yan smiled evilly.
