Chapter 107: Surprise Visit

Seeing that her cousin was staring at a spot with a dazed look on her face, Ma Yu Xi followed her line of gaze and saw a group of people walking on the street.

There were around four of them and each of them was unfamiliar faces to Ma Yu Xi.

"I almost forgot. Although not many knew about this carnival, there would be a few tourists and people from the nearby town to join the carnival as well," Ma Yu Xi commented.

Su Ruan frowned, but it doesn't seem as if she was listening to Ma Yu Xi's words. At this time, Su Ruan's gaze was focused on the couple at the front.

Although she had told herself that she had let go of her feelings, seeing both Yu Zhi Yi and Shen Yue together would still make her heart uncomfortable.

She had thought that she would not see them until their wedding. Unexpectedly, Yu Zhi Yi and Shen Yue decided to come to this small town.

Seeing that they had come closer, Su Ruan quickly turned around to avoid being seen. Unfortunately for her, Yu Zhi Yi had noticed her.

His eyes flashed and Yu Zhi Yi pulled his fiance over to the Ma's Orchard's booth.

"Su Ruan!"

Her steps halted upon hearing his voice calling out her name. Su Ruan hesitated for a brief second but in the end, she inhaled a deep breath and turned around with a fake surprised look on her face. "Yu Zhi Yi?"

At the side, Ma Yu Xi raised a brow when she realized that her cousin know this man. She thought of how Su Ruan has been staring at the man with a dazed look on her face just a few seconds ago.

Her sixth sense was telling her that there was a story behind their relationship.

"I knew that I would run into you here," Yu Zhi Yi said.

Hearing his words, Shen Yue, who was beside him narrowed her eyes. Her gaze shifted towards both Su Ruan and Yu Zhi Yi. It was clear that she was unhappy at this unexpected meeting, but Shen Yue did not want to create a scene and cause trouble.

"Miss Shen, hello," Su Ruan turned to the woman and greeted her politely. "What are you two doing here?"

Yu Zhi Yi glanced at Shen Yue and spoke, "It has been a while since we go on a trip together. I saw on you posted about this carnival on your social media and decided to come and take a look. Su Ruan, I didn't think that this town would be this pretty. So, this was why you wanted to stay in this town."

The smile on her face turned stiff. Su Ruan was not expecting that Yu Zhi Yi would come to this town after seeing her posts.

"Then, I hope that you will enjoy your stay here," Su Ruan smiled. "How long are you staying around."

"Unfortunately, we will have to leave for Capital City the next morning," Yu Zhi Yi said. He tightened his arms around Shen Yue's shoulder and continued, "It was not easy for me to bring Shen Yue out."

Hearing that the couple was not going to stay for too long, Su Ruan heaved a breath of relief.

"Su Ruan, you're very familiar with this town. Why don't you show us around this place? We can take this chance to catch up," Yu Zhi Yi suggested.

"Zhi Yi, don't make trouble." Shen Yue leaned her head on Yu Zhi Yui's arms. "Miss Su is busy looking after her booth. She won't have time to show us around the place." Then, she turned to Su Ruan and flashed a smile that did not reach her eyes. Her brow rose as if trying to provoke Su Ruan to say otherwise.

"Your fiance is right. Unfortunately, you come at a bad time." Su Ruan flashed an apologetic smile. "I have to look after this booth. There are a lot of things to be done. I don't think I will have the time to show you around the place."

"Not even for a few minutes?"

Su Ruan hesitated upon hearing his tone of voice. "I really can't. I'm sorry. It was a busy day for me and everyone else in the orchard. Next time, you should have told me you were coming. Then, I could arrange for something."

Yu Zhi Yi finally heaved a sigh. "You're right. I just thought that we haven't seen each other in a while and wanted to give you a surprise."

"Well, this is fine too. The two of you could walk around and enjoy this carnival together. If I come with you, I'm afraid that I will only be a light bulb," Su Ruan smiled. "I don't wish to be fed with dog food."

Yu Zhi Yi laughed upon hearing her words. "Alright. I get it." His eyes swept on the products on the counter "What are you selling? I'll buy some and bring them back to our friend in Capital City."

Su Ruan introduced their products ad convinced her friend to buy a few more. Seeing that there were a few guests coming to their booth, she quickly made an excuse to escape.

With Su Ruan busy looking after the booth, Yu Zhi Yi then left with his fiance.

A breath of relief escaped her when the couple was no longer within her eyesight.

"Sister Ruan, who are those people?" Ma Yu Xi asked.

"Yu Zhi Yi is my best friend and we have known each other for years. That woman, Miss Shen is his fiance," Su Ruan explained.

"Why do I feel as if there was something strange going on between the three of you?" Ma Yu Xi asked. "The way that woman was looking at you was a little strange. I don't know what it is, but I don't think she was being friendly with you." Her brow furrowed as Ma Yu Xi recalled the provocative look that Shen Yue had given to her cousin.

"There was a bit of misunderstanding." Su Ruan chuckled. "Miss Shen seemed to think that I have feelings towards her fiance."

Ma Yu Xi raised a brow. "Sister Ruan, you liked that guy?"

"Don't be ridiculous. Our relationship is not like that." Su Ruan rolled her eyes. "Alright. Let's stop gossiping and continue to work." She quickly found a way to change the subject.. "If your brother comes over and found the counter empty, he's going to nag for hours."
