Chapter 1513: Chapter 1528: Someone Else’s Bride

"Do you really need to light our way? I’m not worried you’ll blind us; I’m more worried you’ll burst with pride. Besides, isn’t Brother Junyang here? I see some people waiting just as eagerly as hoping for the stars and moon."

An Ran had clearly seen the messages that afternoon, full of the stench of romance. She didn’t buy that Xiao Xiao was just casually asking when she would return to Imperial City.

"You’re kidding, right? Who’s eagerly waiting? I’ve already told him that I’ll go after New Year’s when the break officially starts, so I’ll be there just in time to be your bridesmaid."

Spending Christmas with Lin Junyang? The thought made Xiao Xiao shudder; with his kind of intelligence, how could he even celebrate a holiday like that?

Seeing her expression, An Ran knew Xiao Xiao had already made up her mind and said nothing further.

The main point was that due to Mu Xingfeng and their work nature, even if they both went to Imperial City for Christmas, they might not have time to meet up.

Lu Yi was staring at the book beside him, not moving his pen for ages.

An Ran and Xiao Xiao spoke softly, but as his desk mate, he still caught bits and pieces.

He knew it wouldn’t be long before she became someone else’s bride.

He’d known for a while that he no longer had the right to stand by her side, and wondered if she would return to Nan’an for school after the wedding.

With Young Master Mu’s capabilities, transferring her to Imperial Medical University would only take a word, and with family ties, she likely wouldn’t want to be separated from her husband.

If that were the case, things between them would never be the same again.

For the remainder of the class, Lu Yi just kept his eyes on the illustration on the book page, staring for half the class duration.

With his status as the eldest young master of the Lu Family, he had no right to attend Young Master Mu’s wedding, and as An Ran’s classmate, Mu Xingfeng was well aware of his feelings for An Ran; he couldn’t convince himself to attend the wedding either.

For the first time, Lu Yi felt so dissatisfied with his status as the eldest young master of the Lu Family. He was still too weak, too weak to even have the right to watch his beloved get married.

Today was Friday, and most local students from Nan’an returned home, with many choosing to relax over the weekend.

After that incident, Xiao Xue had been taking care of Dongfang Ming at his place, and Shen Qi had been invited out by Zhu Pengfei; left alone, An Ran, Xiao Xiao, and Feng Hui Ning decided to go out for a small hot pot.

The weather had turned cooler, making eating a small hot pot around this season one of the most enjoyable things.

Not far from campus, An Ran spotted a familiar silhouette.

"Sicheng?!"

An Sicheng was inquiring something from classmates and, hearing the call, turned around with a smile touching his eyes.

"Thanks to both of you, I found who I was looking for," An Sicheng thanked the two classmates and jogged over.

"Big sis!"

Although An Ran was adopted, to An Sicheng, she had always been like a real sister. He always called her "big sis" and An Sijia "second sis."

An Ran hadn’t expected An Sicheng to come looking for her at school, given that she had given him her phone number.

"Sicheng, what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be at school now?"

An Sicheng was attending a closed-off elite school that was very strict, allowing home visits only once a month. It wasn’t a holiday now, so An Ran was puzzled about how An Sicheng had ended up there.

"Big sis, I missed you, so I came to see you," An Sicheng was still smiling and turned his attention to Xiao Xiao, "Sister Xiao Xiao, I haven’t seen you for over a year; you’ve become so pretty."
