Don't meet me in your next life.

Sitting in the taxi, Xiang Yiyi trembled all over. The person she loved most, the person she had longed for day and night, had become someone else's fiancé, while he was just a passerby in the end.

Tears welled up in Xiang Yi's eyes. She tried to open her eyes wide and look up at the sky to stop the tears from falling.

Seeing her sullen expression in the rearview mirror, the driver turned on the car radio. The radio was playing the news, and coincidentally, it was about this "unparalleled romance" in Lucheng. The man was Lin Lubai, the heir to the Lin family business, and the woman was Su Qiaoqiao, the apple of the Su family's eye. Su Qiaoqiao was a skilled pianist and also had profound achievements in dance; she had studied abroad in her early years, making them a perfect match—a talented man and a beautiful woman.

"What a perfect match, it's just a pity we don't know if there's any love between them. This is a marriage between wealthy and powerful families," the driver remarked casually.

"Master, can you play some music?" The name Su Qiaoqiao stung Xiang Yiyi.

The cheerful music playing in the car calmed Xiang Yiyi down a bit.

Yes, it's so good to be well-matched. I was just an accident back then. Now I can only wish them well. She touched her belly and thought, "It's alright. I'll be just as happy with you by my side from now on."

Xiang Yi opened her phone and booked the earliest flight to Yunxi. She wanted to go there, where she could find her blue sky and white clouds.

Back at the hotel, I picked up my luggage and prepared to go to the airport when Su Mingli called.

"AY, I've looked all over the banquet hall, but I can't find you." Su Mingli realized AY was missing and quickly called her.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back to the hotel first. Just take the girl's measurements and give them to me. If I have time, I'll arrange the wedding; otherwise, I'll send you the design drawings," Xiang Yi said apologetically.

Making a wedding dress for the wife of the man she loves is something Xiang Yi isn't sure she can do; she doesn't seem that strong. Fortunately, the child in her womb can provide cover.

"I'll pick you up from the hotel now." "Okay, thank you for your trouble. Shall we have dinner together?" Su Mingli felt that no matter what, this woman was someone he could be friends with.

"Sorry, I'm a little tired today and want to rest for a while. Maybe next time." Xiang Yiyi refused Su Mingli's offer.

"Okay, let's meet up next time."

After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yi took a deep breath and composed herself.

As the plane took off, Xiang Yi looked out the window and whispered: Goodbye Lin Lubai, goodbye Lucheng!

I can't offer my blessings, but I can make sure we never see each other again.

In the banquet hall, Lin Lubai dealt with the guests who came to offer their congratulations with a blank expression. His right eye twitched for a long time, but he had no idea that something bad was about to happen.

If it weren't for the billions in stock price at stake, he wouldn't want to stay here for even a minute longer.

After a two-hour flight, Xiang Yi finally arrived in Yunxi. Her mood improved as soon as she got off the plane.

The sky over Yunxi is a deep, clear blue; it's like God's favorite place, pristine and untouched.

Yunxi is a small county town, lacking the hustle and bustle of a city, making it exceptionally peaceful. The villagers here are very simple and hospitable, and the taxi driver kindly introduced the place to her. Xiang Yiyi liked this feeling very much, and she thought that perhaps she could wait for her baby to be born here.

"Young lady, would you like to stay in a guesthouse or a hotel?" The taxi driver, knowing she was a tourist, spontaneously became her guide.

"Hotels offer better service and are more professional, while guesthouses are more affordable and have a more down-to-earth atmosphere," the driver enthusiastically explained to her.

"Then let's stay in a guesthouse. Can you recommend a few?"

"We have a lot of guesthouses around here, like Shanchuan Guesthouse and Youjia Guesthouse, which are both pretty good, as well as the newly opened Yiyi Guesthouse," the driver said enthusiastically.

"Wait, what did you just say, Yi Yi B&B?"

"Yes, Yi Yi B&B. This B&B has only been open for two or three months, but it is very popular with young people like you."

"Then take me to see Yi Yi's B&B." Perhaps this is fate, even their names are the same. He smiled at Yi Yi.

Lu Sichen sat on the balcony of the guesthouse, lost in thought. He had been busy all morning and was feeling a bit exhausted. He had renovated the garden and planted blue roses imported from overseas. By May of next year, his yard would be full of blue roses, but he wondered if she would be able to see them then.

On the balcony, he took good care of the row of succulents. The rooftop and entrance of the guesthouse were also full of succulents. These were her favorite flowers. He hoped that one day he could sit here with her and watch the blooming blue roses.

Lin Lubai is engaged, and the headlines in Lucheng are all about his engagement. But where is his Yi Yi? Will he ever see her again?

Lu Sichen closed his eyes slightly to take a nap. He hadn't slept well last night due to a headache, and he was exhausted all morning. The sunlight was a bit too bright, so Lu Sichen grabbed the clothes next to him and covered his head with them.

When the driver helped Xiang Yiyi carry her suitcase in, Lu Sichen was asleep. In his sleep, he heard Xiang Yiyi's voice: "Wow, it's so beautiful! There are so many succulents here. I love it here."

The clean courtyard, simple wooden decorations, and simple cartoon drawings on the walls reminded Xiang Yi of Lu Sichen, only without the lightheartedness of Lu Sichen's paintings.

Succulents are everywhere, along with her favorite swing, and a small pavilion filled with lotus flowers—it all seems designed just for her. Looking up, she sees a man resting on the second-floor balcony, his face covered; it's a truly heartwarming scene.

"Yi Yi B&B, this place is exactly my style! It seems we're destined to meet." Xiang Yi was overjoyed. She even thought that renting a place here for a short stay while waiting for her child to be born would be a good option.

"This is fine, I really like it here, thank you, driver." Xiang Yi was very grateful to the driver for bringing her to such a comfortable and beautiful guesthouse.

Upon arriving at the reception desk, I handed my ID to Yi Yi and checked in. The receptionist was a young girl of about 15 or 6 years old, who said her mother had just gone out for a while and asked me to watch her mother's room.

"Sister, would you like to stay on the second floor or the third floor?" the little girl asked timidly.

"The second floor, please." Considering her pregnancy, she asked Yi Yi for the second floor.

"Then you can live next to your brother. It's a one-bedroom apartment with a kitchen and a big balcony with a view of the yard." The little girl was very cute.

"Okay. Then give me that one." Xiang Yi smiled.

The little girl led Xiang Yiyi to the second floor. The corridor was long, but Xiang Yiyi's room was the third one around the corner of the stairs, which was very convenient.

After packing her luggage, Xiang Yi stood on the balcony looking at the view of the yard and liked it even more. She decided that she would welcome the birth of her child here.

After a long day, Xiang Yi was exhausted. She lay down on the soft bed and fell into a deep sleep.
