“What are you looking at?” Ben came out of the bathroom and asked casually when he saw Susan swipe her phone.

“Nothing,” Susan said as she casually put down her phone.

Ben arched a brow and said, “Today seems to be Timothy and Yana’s wedding day.”

“Yes.” Susan didn’t avoid the topic. “Yana even live–streamed the wedding, but… the public reaction seemed to have gone against her expectations.”

“Serves her right,” Ben said bluntly.

He glanced at Susan and said softly, “Speaking of which, our wedding was a little hasty.”

“I think it was okay.” Susan was in a daze.

Although Susan didn’t remember the wedding clearly, she got the impression that it was a grand occasion with an air of luxury.

“No, it was far from okay,” Ben retorted with a frown. “At that time, my grandpa only prepared it for a week, and I didn’t intervene. Next time, I will surely…”

Susan glanced at him and said in an icy voice, “Next time?”

Ben hurriedly explained, “I mean, let’s prepare for a better wedding ceremony!”

Susan felt amused at the sight of how nervous Ben was.

However, she was not interested in holding a wedding ceremony for a second time.

“A wedding is troublesome. Do you still remember that I was too fired to keep my feet at the wedding?” Susan said, “I’d rather enjoy some tranquil alone time with you than have a grand wedding ceremony.”

Ben’s eyes lit up as he agreed, “You’re right.”

He lifted the quilt and directly sat next to Susan on the bed.

Susan was startled. She asked warily, “What are you doing?”

Ben would sleep on the sofa alone instead of sleeping on the same bed with Susan.

“What is he trying to do now? Does he want to sleep on my bed with me?

It’s not that he can’t..

But isn’t it a little too fast?” Susan thought nervously.

“Hmm?” Ben looked at Susan in shock and explained, “What are you thinking about? Didn’t
