The two playfully bickered all the way to the parking lot. Qin Muni drove her car while Xu Yisen’s car followed hers into the underground parking lot of Fanluo Residence.

Qin Muni parked her car first, then unbuckled her seatbelt and got out, walking to the front of Xu Yisen’s car and knocking on the window.

The window rolled down, revealing Xu Yisen’s warm smile, "Mr. Xu, what’s your intention in following me all the way?"

"I wanted to see you home."

"I’m already home, you can leave now."

"This is a parking lot, not your home."

"Is it really okay to just follow women like this?" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"If I’m following my wife, it shouldn’t be illegal."

Xu Yisen chuckled lightly, unbuckled his seatbelt, and opened the car door.

Qin Muni stepped back two paces from the car, and after Xu Yisen got out, she slightly tilted her head to look up at him, towering over her. "Go home first, it’s getting late."

Xu Yisen glanced at his watch, then casually hooked Qin Muni’s neck, "Let me take you home first."

Since they were already at the parking lot and he had gotten out of the car, Qin Muni didn’t refuse his request and followed his steps toward the elevator.

They chatted idly along the way, took the elevator to the fifteenth floor, and stopped only when they reached Qin Muni’s doorstep.

The door was adorned with a red ’happiness’ character, and festive couplets were pasted on the side, exuding an air of celebration.

"Get some rest early, I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow morning."

Xu Yisen still held Qin Muni’s hand with one hand, while the other gently tapped her petite nose.

"Mm."

Qin Muni let go of his hand, turned around, and entered the password on the lock.

The lock beeped twice. Before turning the doorknob, Qin Muni turned back to wave at Xu Yisen standing behind her, "Good night, Mr. Xu."

"Good night, Mrs. Xu."

After exchanging goodnight wishes with Xu Yisen, Qin Muni turned the doorknob and entered her home.

After she went inside, Xu Yisen left as well.

...

Before sleeping, Qin Muni set her alarm for six in the morning. However, at five-thirty, she was woken up by the sound of the doorbell.

Groggily, she reached for the tablet on the bedside table, turned on the monitor, and saw a group of people standing outside her front door, led by her senior, today’s wedding officiant, Yuan Chengmo.

Qin Muni put down the tablet, picked up her phone, and called Yuan Chengmo. As soon as the call connected, her voice hoarse, she said, "Senior, it’s still early, let me sleep for another half hour."

"It’s not early, hurry and open the door."

"It’s only five-thirty."

"It’s five thirty-three."

"I’m so tired."

"Wake up now, you can sleep when you’re in the bridal chamber with Xu Yisen tonight."

"Senior, is it really okay to say that in front of so many people?"

"So hurry up and open the door."

"I really can’t win against you, the password is 976589, just come in yourself."

Resigned, Qin Muni hung up the phone, reluctantly threw off the covers, and went to the bathroom to shower and freshen up.

When she came out of the bathroom, she saw Yuan Chengmo sitting comfortably in the room’s armchair, leafing through her and Xu Yisen’s wedding photo album.

"Aren’t you taking your role as the wedding officiant a bit too seriously? It’s so early."

Yuan Chengmo closed the album in his hand, placed it back on the table, and with the same disdainful tone, said to Qin Muni, "Aren’t you, as the bride, a bit too carefree? It’s already so late."
