Thinking of this, Su Wanwan turned around and wanted to go back to the room, take out her bag that had been put away in the cabinet, and take out the money from it. Unexpectedly, Xu Yan seemed to see through her thoughts and reached out and gently held her shoulders.

"I'm going to go back and get something. Just give me the room key and wait for me here." Su Wanwan explained.

"No need, I have money with me." Xu Yan explained with a smile.

For some reason, after getting up this morning, Xu Yan gave her a different feeling from before. In the past, Xu Yan always had a blank expression on his face, and even if he had an expression, it was just a slight movement of his skin, and it was almost visibly forced.

But this guy seemed to be smiling all the time this morning?

Su Wanwan didn't see clearly, and just when she was about to look up to take a closer look, a strange panic stopped her action, causing her to stand there for a moment, as if thinking about Xu Yan's words.

"It was me who suggested taking them to buy New Year's goods. It should cost a lot of money. How could I use your money? What's more, the new factory buildings were all paid for by you, not from the factory's funds. I haven't had the chance to thank you properly yet."

If the money for building the new factory building was taken from the public part of their factory, I'm afraid the operating balance of their factory would already be negative, and it would be a lot negative.

"What are you talking about?" It would have been better if Su Wanwan hadn't said this. After she said this, Xu Yan's expression was indeed not as good as before, and there was even a hint of blame in his expression.

Su Wanwan saw such a big change in his face in an instant that she almost exclaimed in surprise.

"what?"

"We are already...engaged now. As your fiancé, isn't this what I should do?"

When Su Wanwan heard the word "engagement" from Xu Yan, she subconsciously wanted to deny this relationship. After all, when the Xu and Su families discussed the engagement in the beginning, it was just an excuse to deceive her father Su Yang and the whole village.

Otherwise, why would she and Xu Yan inexplicably hold a banquet in the county and invite everyone in the village to come here to have a meal and drink? What's the point of that?

But now, Su Wanwan thought about it again. It seemed that she and Xu Yan had already announced their engaged relationship to the entire Su family and the entire village. Except for her father Su Yang, everyone else in the Su family knew this truth, but it seemed that they also... meant it?

She and Xu Yan were clearly engaged in a fake relationship, but now it seems like it’s the real deal…

Su Wanwan's little head recalled carefully, from the successful negotiation to the completion of the factory building, and the whole process of welcoming the villagers to the county, it seemed...

So, she is now engaged to Xu Yan...?

Su Wanwan, who had learned this, was not as surprised as she had imagined. Instead, she raised her head honestly and met Xu Yan's affectionate gaze: "Then I don't have the money to pay you back."

A chuckle responded to Su Wanwan's childish words, and before Su Wanwan could say anything else, Xu Yan had already taken her hand.

The two walked all the way to the lobby on the first floor, and sure enough, they saw that the entire Su family was waiting for them on the sofa.

Su Wanwan immediately felt guilty, but also helpless. Although she did agree with her father, mother and others to get up early and go out early before they went back to their rooms last night, it shouldn't be as early as five or six o'clock, right?

It's not even daybreak yet, what are they doing up so early?

Although she thought so in her heart, Su Wanwan still looked ashamed on the surface. She trotted forward and hugged her mother Zhao Ying's arm.

"Mom, I was a bit sleepy last night and didn't get up until this hour. You won't blame me, right?"

One could tell from Su Wanwan's voice that she was acting like a spoiled child without having to listen carefully. Her mother, Zhao Ying, naturally did not blame her. Instead, she gently touched the top of her head with her other hand, saying lovingly, "It's okay. Your father and I just wandered outside the guesthouse for a while and we just came back."

When Su Wanwan heard that her mother Zhao Ying got up so early and even went out for a walk, she quickly asked: "How do you feel?" Zhao Ying's sudden symptoms last night made everyone present panic. Fortunately, the symptoms gradually improved and no major incident occurred.

"Don't worry, it's okay. I was just a little angry yesterday, but I'm fine now." When Zhao Ying said this, Su Wanwan glanced at Jiang Panhua, who was sitting on the armrest at the end of the sofa, with an unfriendly look.

The little ones were already dressed neatly, wearing hats and gloves obediently. Xiao Qinggui even pulled her scarf over her nose, revealing only her two big eyes. When she saw that her grandmother was unhappy, she stretched out her little hand, tugged at the corner of Zhao Ying's clothes, and said in a baby voice, "Grandma, don't be angry, let's go out and buy some candy, okay!"

Zhao Ying has always loved her precious grandchildren. When Qinggui said this, she immediately smiled and everyone stood up from the sofa.

The waiter of the guesthouse had already opened the door for them in advance. Just as Su Wanwan and Zhao Ying were walking out hand in hand, she suddenly turned back and found that Jiang Panhua was still sitting on the armrest of the sofa and had not gotten up.

Except for Jiang Panhua, everyone else walked out in an orderly manner.

So much so that she was the only one on the armrest of the sofa, which looked a bit weird.

"Third sister-in-law, why don't you go with them?" Su Wanwan waited for Zhao Ying to be supported by her eldest brother Su Gao out of the guesthouse. When they were some distance apart, she asked in a low voice to avoid Zhao Ying hearing and adding to the trouble.

Jiang Panhua, who was sitting on the armrest, rolled her eyes and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter whether I go or not, just go with your family."

"Then what do you think everyone will think when they leave and find out you're not here?" Su Wanwan remained calm.

They will return to the village in the afternoon, so it is better to try not to cause any trouble before then.

"What else can you think? If I don't go with them, they will be secretly happy. What's more, if I don't go with you, won't it save you money? Why not?"

What Jiang Panhua said was true. If Jiang Panhua was not in the group, Su Wanwan would at least be happier. But they were a group after all and came to the county town together. If Jiang Panhua did not go with them, his father and mother would definitely feel bad.

"Oh, I see. You want to wait until we leave the guesthouse and then go out for a stroll like you did yesterday? Trying to have a chance encounter in the county town or something?"

As if seeing through Jiang Panhua's thoughts, Su Wanwan pointed out the possible thoughts in her mind without hesitation.

Sure enough, when Su Wanwan said that, Jiang Panhua immediately opened her eyes wide, "Don't destroy someone's innocence."

"If you want to prove that you won't do what I said, it's very simple. Just go with us to buy New Year's goods. Anyway, you go with everyone else, and we can buy you whatever you want. You can buy what you want without being suspected or criticized. Why not do it?"
