"Ms. Li, we have prepared a corpse that looks exactly like you, as requested. We will deliver it to your wedding with Mr. He in ten days."
Hearing the staff member's reply over the phone, the tension that had gripped Li Yutang for days eased a little.
"Good. Thank you for taking care of this."
"You're welcome. It's our job. And please rest assured, no one will suspect anything about this corpse."
Reassured, Li Yutang let out a long breath of relief.
After confirming the details for the delivery one more time, she hung up and pushed open the door to the private room.
The room had been noisy, but the moment she walked in, everyone fell silent.
He Tingzhou, seated in the middle, hurried to his feet and took her hand. His eyes filled with worry as he signed to her.
"Tangtang, why were you in the restroom for so long? Are you feeling unwell? I'll take you home to rest right now."
He made as if to lead her away.
Seeing that his eyes were full of her, Li Yutang suppressed the ache in her heart and shook her head.
"I'm fine. You can all carry on."
Only after she had reassured him several times did He Tingzhou lead her back to her seat by the hand.
