"But you've been married, like, for ages..." An Xiaxia was confused.
These were simply too many coincidences in one day!
Su Xiaomo cleared her throat and took He Jiayu's arm."Honey, do you love me?"
The skin behind He Jiayu's ears turned pink. Embarrassed as he was, he still gave her a little nod.
"See? He loves me and I love him. We're such a sweet couple, so every day is like a honeymoon to us." Su Xiaomo gave An Xiaxia a bright smile, then sat down next to her."What about you guys? Where are you going?"
An Xiaxia didn't give that question a second thought. She told Su Xiaomo everything, including their whole itinerary.
Su Xiaomo and Fang Shanshan exchanged looks, then gestured with an "OK" at each other.
Sheng Yize saw what was going on and put a hand to his forehead in resignation. An Xiaxia was as naive as she always was, not realizing that they were about to have a lot of third wheels on this trip.
After they boarded a connecting flight, An Xiaxia finally realized that something wasn't right.
Why were Su Xiaomo's and Fang Shanshan's routes identical to hers...
"Where are you all going?" she asked in confusion.
"Country W. They have that famous water city over there and of course we're checking it out."
An Xiaxia bit her lip."That's where we're going, too."
Su Xiaomo said, "What a coincidence! Let's go together, then!"
Coincidence?
I don't think so!
An Xiaxia asked awkwardly, "Don't tell me that... you're going to follow us."
With their plans exposed, Su Xiaomo and Fang Shanshan cleared their throats. Su Xiaomo then said, "Well, we all wanted to go traveling, but were too lazy to plan the trip ourselves. We thought we could just go where you two go. Look, it's a group date. Isn't that romantic?"
Pffft... Just admit that you were lazy! Stop finding lofty-sounding excuses for yourselves!
Come to think of it, the more the merrier, so this might turn out to be a great experience.
An Xiaxia persuaded herself after a few minutes, but Sheng Yize looked sulky.
Four hours later.
It was deep into the night when the six of them arrived at Country W.
After checking into their hotel, they were all exhausted from the long flight. All three couples then went back to their room to rest.
Early the next morning in the hotel restaurant, Sheng Yize gave two copies of the itinerary to Su Xiaomo and Fang Shanshan.
"Here is the itinerary. Feel free to walk around the city. We don't have to stick together, " Sheng Yize said indifferently.
Fang Shanshan and Su Xiaomo wouldn't have it."Traveling is only fun when there are enough people! Go ask Xiaxia, if you want!"
Sheng Yize took a sip of water from his glass and said casually, "Well, she's still in bed. She's not ready to get up yet."
"She can't get up? Is she sick?" Fang Shanshan looked concerned."I'll go see her!"
Su Xiaomo, the married woman, cleared her throat and kept her silence.
Chi Yuanfeng stopped Fang Shanshan."Ahem... Don't worry. Xiaxia isn't sick. Look, would Brother Yize be sitting here calmly if Xiaxia wasn't feeling well?"
"You have a point."
Sheng Yize darted a look at He Jiayu and Chi Yuanfeng, which said: your woman, your job.
He Jiayu and Chi Yuanfeng then exchanged looks and went to cajole their respective wives.
Once that was done, Sheng Yize nodded in satisfaction and headed back to his room.
Hmph.
This wasn't some graduation trip. Why did they need so many people around?
Of course he wanted them to be left all by themselves - only then could he do "indescribable" things whenever he wanted.
When Tsundere Sheng marched into the room, An Xiaxia was no longer in bed.
Sheng Yize's usually impassive face was panic-stricken now.
"Xiaxia..."
He called her name repeatedly, but no one answered.
An Xiaxia was gone.
Damn it! Who took her?
