Once the date of Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling’s wedding was set, the news quickly spread.
The headline used by the media was: [The Dean of Lahaisen Hospital marries1 the Young Master of the Zhai family.]
By using these words, this meant that in the eyes of everyone else, Jian Yiling’s current status and position in society were higher than Zhai Yunsheng’s.
Typically, when celebrities married into rich and powerful families, they would be climbing up the social ladder.
However, when it came to Jian Yiling, the media unanimously believed that this marriage would lower her overall social standing.
Two years ago, when Jian Yiling initially got engaged to Zhai Yunsheng, the outside world had a completely different attitude.
Even though only two years had passed, everyone’s opinions had completely shifted in a different direction.
Soon after, the news that the Chief Designer of XDLwas going to personally design Jian Yiling’s wedding outfit also spread.
Then, Zhang Xuming also announced that he would hand over Xuming Medical Manufacturers to her at her wedding.
Even though there was still a while until Jian Yiling’s marriage, it became the most hotly discussed topic in several hours of the day.

After Mo Shiyun’s birthday party, Qin Chuan continued to be as busy as ever. On the other hand, Mo Shiyun continued to stay at home to be a virtuous girlfriend like she had been doing for the past year or so.
Even though Qin Yufan did not like Mo Shiyun, she could not find any bone to pick with her. As a result, Mo Shiyun could continue living in the Qin Residence.
That night, Qin Chuan came back later than ever. He was also incredibly drunk.
Qin Chuan was typically someone who was extremely disciplined. He would never drink excessively whenever he went out to socialize.
However, for some reason today, he got so drunk that his assistant had to send him back to the Qin Residence.
With the help of the family nanny, Mo Shiyun managed to get Qin Chuan upstairs to his own room.
Mo Shiyun briefly wiped down the sweat on Qin Chuan’s face with a warm towel before she took off his suit jacket and covered him with the blanket.
Just as Mo Shiyun was about to leave, Qin Chuan suddenly grabbed her with one hand.
“Don’t go.”
When Mo Shiyun heard this, she was initially startled. Then, an infinite joy surged to her heart.
Mo Shiyun rarely got the chance to touch Qin Chuan physically. The most she could do was to hold his arm in front of outsiders.
In private, their hands would rarely even touch.
However this time, he took the initiative to grab the hand.
Mo Shiyun did not want to pull her hand away. And thus, she just stood in front of the bed and looked at Qin Chuan.
These days, he was usually detached and cold. However, when he was drunk, he would be less cold and detached.
“I’m here. If you don’t want me to leave, I won’t leave you.”
“Yiling…” Qin Chuan called out. He recited the name that was not at all unfamiliar to Mo Shiyun.
Upon hearing Jian Yiling’s name, Mo Shiyun froze for a moment.
A flash of pain appeared on her face but she quickly perked up again.
“Qin Chuan, it doesn’t matter if you like her. I won’t be jealous of her anymore. I know that she’s an amazing human being. It’s totally normal for you to like her. I also don’t expect to replace her place in your heart. I just want to continue to be by your side like this.”
Mo Shiyun knew that Jian Yiling belonged to Zhai Yunsheng. She also knew that the two of them wouldn’t separate easily after how much they’ve gone through together.
And soon, the two of them were going to be married.
And so, even if Qin Chuan liked Jian Yiling, he could not be with her.
She didn’t have any unreasonable expectations.
In fact, as long as she could have a place by his side like right now, she would be happy.
Mo Shiyun squatted down and put her face close to the back of Qin Chuan’s hand. She felt the temperature of his hand and felt the touch of his skin.
