Chapter 2045: The Secret Hidden Inside the Stone

Jiang Motian could not be bothered to communicate with Xie Wanyi any further.

She said in a stiff voice, "Fine, then you go be busy!"

Once she finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.

Only at this moment did Xie Wanyi realize something was wrong.

But it was already too late.

From his phone, only a "beep-beep" sound remained.

Xie Wanyi stared at his phone and muttered, "What is wrong with her?"

Assistant Xiaolin was standing right beside Xie Wanyi and had understood a thing or two.

Seeing Xie Wanyi completely bewildered, he reminded him, "Boss, is your fiancée testing your attitude toward marriage?"

Hearing Xiaolin's words, Xie Wanyi suddenly realized the truth.

Afterward, he made another assumption: "Does Tiantian want to get married?"

"Not necessarily; perhaps she just wants to know what plans you have for the future."

As for Xie Wanyi's plans...

He said, "If Tiantian wants to, I can propose right now!"

"Then what if your fiancée doesn't want to?"

"I can wait."

"So, you are handing the choice of marriage entirely over to your fiancée? This..."

Xie Wanyi heard the disapproval in Xiaolin's words and asked, "Is there a problem?"

"I just feel that you should be more proactive and let your fiancée see your attitude. Sometimes women don't care about how a problem is solved, but they care very much about the attitude during communication."

Because of this sentence, Xie Wanyi fell into deep thought.

His contemplation lasted for quite a while.

But when he raised his head, his eyes were clear and bright.

One look and it was obvious he had thought the problem through.

And for being able to think it through, Xiaolin deserved much of the credit.

Xie Wanyi handed Xiaolin a membership card and said, "Giving people advice is quite mentally taxing; go and nourish yourself."

This membership card was a super VIP card for a top-tier restaurant; one could spend freely and did not need to reserve a table.

It was something money couldn't even buy!

Xiaolin immediately beamed with joy and said, "Thank you, Boss! If you need to analyze anything else later, I'm at your beck and call!"

Xie Wanyi felt that in the future, if he encountered any problems, he could completely...

Forget it, better not boast just yet.

Lest he get slapped in the face!

Because of her sleepiness, Wei Yangyang now had to take a nap every day at noon.

It was fine at home; she could hide under her own quilt and sleep until the world went dark.

But at the company, it was a bit troublesome.

Fortunately, Li Xingyan had bought her a lounge chair.

When unfolded, it was a single bed; lying on it, one could enjoy five-star sleep.

Most importantly, this chair didn't take up any space at all.

Her colleagues saw it and were incredibly envious, all wanting to buy the same model.

But once they checked the price...

Sorry, never mind!

Everyone suddenly felt that hunting for a second-hand folding bed would be just the same.

Don't look at how Wei Yangyang loved to sleep; she was actually more efficient at work than before.

She would work busily at her desk with an expressionless face, completing work tasks one after another.

Sometimes, she could even help her colleagues.

Her colleagues therefore teased Wei Yangyang: "They say pregnancy makes a woman foolish for three years, so how did you become a career woman after getting pregnant?"

"What career woman? I'm clearly a sleeping beauty."

Wei Yangyang's self-deprecating remark made her colleagues laugh.

Another colleague said, "Getting enough sleep is also quite good; the baby will be smarter."

"There's such a saying?"

"Of course. By the way, you can also let the baby listen to music or visit art exhibitions to cultivate an appreciation for art early on."

Wei Yangyang took these words to heart.

As for listening to music, doing it at home was fine.

As for visiting art exhibitions...

There was no need to go to the Meishuguan and go through all that trouble; she could just go find Jiang Motian!

Wei Yangyang started running over to Jiang Motian's place whenever she was free.

She called it prenatal education for the baby.

It was just that every time, Wei Yangyang would look at the paintings for three minutes and doze off for an hour.

When Wei Yangyang sat up from the sofa with sleepy eyes yet again, Jiang Motian couldn't help but complain: "You've been sleeping the whole time, how are you cultivating anything?"

Wei Yangyang yawned and said, "I can't help it; it's too comfortable here, too easy to fall asleep."

The Art Studio was indeed quiet.

Sometimes, Jiang Motian would even play some music.

Peaceful, it was truly peaceful.

Just watching Wei Yangyang sleeping so soundly, Jiang Motian also wanted to put down her paintbrush, stare blankly, and empty her mind.

But unfortunately, Jiang Motian had a task.

She could only suppress the heart that wanted to indulge and continue waving her paintbrush.

Wei Yangyang stretched and began to wander around the room.

Suddenly, she stopped, pointed at a round, black stone, and asked, "What is that?"

"Oh, Wanyi gave it to me, said it was some kind of Meteor Stone."

Meteor Stone?

Wei Yangyang curiously picked it up to take a look.

This thing was quite heavy.

She tossed the stone in her palm, and then...

"Bang!" With a sound, the stone fell to the ground!

"Oh no, sorry, sorry, it's all my fault!"

The round stone rolled toward the corner.

Wei Yangyang crouched down and chased after it.

Seeing this, Jiang Motian hurriedly shouted, "That stone won't break, but you, slow down!"

Wei Yangyang did not listen to Jiang Motian, but instead quickened her pace and reached out to grab it!

She caught it!

Only...

Wei Yangyang's movements froze, and afterward, she said with a bitter face, turning back, "This stone really is broken!"

At this moment, Wei Yangyang held one half of the stone in her left hand and the other half in her right.

Jiang Motian walked over quickly, took the stone, and looked at it.

Then she muttered in confusion, "This thing could dent the floor, how could it break just like that?"

Hmm...

That's not right!

How could the crack of a broken stone be so neat?

This was clearly cut beforehand and then glued together!

So, was Xie Wanyi cheated by someone?

Jiang Motian looked suspicious.

Wei Yangyang, however, bent down again.

She picked up a slip of paper from the floor and asked, "Is this a note you dropped?"

"No, I don't have note paper like this."

Then... could it have fallen out of the stone!

Wei Yangyang urged Jiang Motian to open it quickly and see.

Jiang Motian unfolded the note.

And the handwriting on it was exactly Xie Wanyi's.

It read:

Tens of millions of years ago, the Meteor Stone chose Earth as its home from outer space.

Now, it has brought me to your side.

You are my eternal belonging.

Unwavering until death.

Wei Yangyang also saw the words on it.

She couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, "Xie Wanyi is so good with words!"

Jiang Motian folded the note back up and said, "Hidden so secretly, I wonder if he wanted me to see it or not."

"It must be a little surprise."

After saying that, Wei Yangyang stared at Jiang Motian and asked, "Are you touched?"

Jiang Motian shook her head very calmly.

This made Wei Yangyang find it unbelievable: "It even said unwavering until death!"

"But I only want him to be plain and simple, to live well, and not have those heart-stirring moments."

Wei Yangyang read something from Jiang Motian's calm expression.

The next second, she tentatively asked, "Do you two have a conflict?"

"No, stop guessing blindly."

"If you didn't, your eyes wouldn't look so complicated."
