Chapter 101: Engagement March
And Yin Lingyan was also wearing a short, knee-length winter dress, its light blue color perfectly complementing her skin. A belt cinched her slender waist, and her black, lustrous hair was neatly spread across her back. She wore a pair of black leather high boots, a faint smile playing on her lips.
This kind of smile was called a professional smile.
Han Wuyu walked over with a smile, holding a windbreaker in his hand. Yin Lingyan felt that men who wore windbreakers were the most tasteful, so she was very satisfied with Han Wuyu’s attire.
After getting into the sports car, Yin Lingyan and Han Wuyu were both filled with nervous anticipation. After all, they were truly about to get engaged to the person they liked. A hazy feeling enveloped Yin Lingyan, making it impossible for her to snap back to reality.

On the highway, among the many vehicles speeding along, one car was particularly conspicuous. From afar, only the bright lights of the car could be seen streaking by. Inside the car, a man’s face was stern, his full lips lightly pursed.
His black casual clothes further accentuated the sense of unease he exuded. The man held a cigar in his hand but did not light it, merely toying with it.
The car continued to move. This face lacked distinctive features, yet it became increasingly captivating, drawing people in involuntarily.
“This is the vibe, this is the vibe……” However, amidst this oppressive atmosphere, the man’s mobile phone suddenly rang.
“Young Master Mu, the news from headquarters has been received. The Prophecy Gang has successfully seized the Heart of the King.” Because the call was on speakerphone, the voice sounded abrupt in the car.
Upon hearing the report, the man’s lips curved into a cold smile. “I see. Their speed is also admirable.”
Although he said this, no matter how one looked at it, that smile seemed strangely piercing.
The car stopped after he finished speaking. The driver was also a man dressed entirely in black, with a stiff expression and no words. Upon reaching their desired destination, the driver got out and escorted the man in black.
…………………………
“Mu Xingchen?” Yin Lingyan exclaimed in surprise, looking at the news on her mobile phone inside the car.
Han Wuyu glanced at it and saw that it was all about Mu Xingchen’s high-profile appearance. He knew that Mu Xingchen’s identity was quite secretive; he had only appeared once at the last Design Competition, and almost no one had seen him since.
His elusive nature had piqued the curiosity of many, but their covert investigations yielded no significant findings.
However, his high-profile appearance this time did spark some curiosity in Han Wuyu. But that little bit of curiosity eventually vanished like smoke, as they had already arrived home.
A cold wind blew gently, and Yin Lingyan felt a slight chill. Suddenly, a piece of clothing appeared on her shoulders. Yin Lingyan saw it was Han Wuyu, and then she shook her head, taking the windbreaker off.
“Hurry inside, there’s heating in there.” Han Wuyu understood Yin Lingyan’s intention and also picked up the windbreaker, putting it over her shoulders as he guided her inside.
Mother Han had already prepared for Han Wuyu’s return. The moment the doorbell rang, she suddenly realized how long it had been since she had seen her precious son.
“Sweetie~” As soon as the door opened, Mother Han’s overly affectionate greeting successfully made Han Wuyu and Yin Lingyan cringe, and it also successfully gave them goosebumps.
The heating inside was turned up high, and in almost an instant, Yin Lingyan no longer felt cold.
When Mother Han saw Yin Lingyan, she was taken aback for a moment, but then she happily pulled them both inside.
