Chapter 373 - 374: Three Days Later, Mo Bai and Lou Xi Hold Their Wedding
Two hours later, Lou Xi arrived in Nancheng. She was just about to head to the hospital, but she didn’t know which hospital Qin Mobai was in, so she immediately called him.
But the person who answered the phone wasn’t Qin Mobai; it was Su Lin.
"Which hospital is Young Master Qin in? I’m back in Nancheng!" Lou Xi’s tone was full of anxiety. Even on the plane just now, she hadn’t managed to rest, and hearing Lu Li talk about how Qin Mobai used to work himself to death scared her. She worried that Qin Mobai might work himself into an early grave!
"President Qin is at home, he hasn’t gone to the hospital."
"Why is he so disobedient? Even when he’s sick, he doesn’t go to the hospital!" Lou Xi knew that Qin Mobai was particularly stubborn; even when he was sick, he wouldn’t go to the hospital properly. Did she have to drag him there herself before he’d listen?
Unable to care about much else, Lou Xi told the driver to step on the gas, faster, faster!
The one-hour drive was cut down to just forty minutes.
The car hadn’t even come to a full stop before Lou Xi rushed out of it, disappearing in a blur, her shadow vanishing from sight.
Bai Lu was worried something might happen. If Lou Xi got too emotional later, she could help hold her back.
As she was about to leave, Lu Li held her back.
"Why are you pulling me?" Bai Lu asked.
"Let’s make a bet."
"Bet on what?"
"Bet that Mo Bai and Lou Xi will get married in three days."
"What a joke." Bai Lu didn’t believe it. Wasn’t Qin Mobai having a gastric hemorrhage? How could he hold a wedding in three days?
"If I win, during the wedding, I’ll be the groomsman and you’ll be the bridesmaid. It would be a perfect match."
"Fine, let’s bet. I’m not afraid!"
When she got upstairs, Bai Lu realized that Lu Li had set her up!
...
Lou Xi ran all the way back to the apartment, turning over in her mind thousands of words she wanted to say to chastise Qin Mobai. How he, such a grown man, still acted like a child who couldn’t take care of himself. Who was he trying to worry? If he kept being so temperamental, she’d threaten not to let him get any fun for a year...
All of them were words of worry and tension for Qin Mobai.
However, Lou Xi had no idea that when she got upstairs and opened the door, ready to speak, she would see a white wedding dress placed in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
The curtains in the living room were drawn, and a single beam of light shone on the wedding dress.
At that moment, Lou Xi felt as if the whole world had quieted; all she could see was the wedding dress, with its long train, intricate patterns, and exquisite embroidery.
Wasn’t... wasn’t Qin Mobai sick? Why... why was there a wedding dress at home?
Why was it so sudden?
Her gaze shifted, and Lou Xi saw Qin Mobai standing next to the wedding dress, dressed in a black suit.
He wore a black suit, the tailored outfit making him appear even more upright, with one hand in his suit pants pocket, adding a few more shades of rakishness to his look.
The impeccably dressed appearance, paired with Qin Mobai’s incomparable face, could only be described with two words—perfect.
"Do you like it?" Qin Mobai slightly raised his chin, his face full of the confidence and arrogance typical of him.
He knew Lou Xi would like it, but he still wanted to ask.
Because he just wanted to hear those three words from her mouth—
"I like it."
With tears welling in her eyes, Lou Xi felt all her previous worries evaporate, overshadowed by the surprise Qin Mobai had given her!
He spread his arms, waiting for Lou Xi to run over as fast as she could, run into his arms.
Then, Lou Xi truly ran towards Qin Mobai as fast as she could, finally throwing herself entirely into his embrace.
