"After discussing with your father just now, I decided to let you and Jiang Zhuhe get engaged first. So I'm going to meet his parents this week, and you'd better make time on Saturday. ”

How did Li Ying come up with an engagement? Now that she has no revenge, she wants people to be engaged to her.

"Mom, I'm so young, it's not good to be engaged now! ”

She couldn't be more reluctant, and she didn't have much affection for men right now. The experience of the previous life made her very disgusted with men, although she met Xue Chi in this life. But deep down, she still refused.

"What's so strange about it, your dad and I got engaged when you were your age. Don't you think we're living happily ever after?"

Li Ying has made up her mind to let her get engaged to Jiang Zhuhe, but is Jiang Zhuhe willing?

"Did you ask Jiang Zhuhe's opinion?

"You young people, we parents know that you are embarrassed to speak, so we have already discussed it with his parents. Both families agreed. ”

It's just that the two families agreed, and they didn't ask their opinions. Now it's just a matter of informing them.

It seems that Jiang Zhuhe did not agree to this matter. I have to talk to Jiang Zhuhe about this matter today.

Hua Ziqi just said a few perfunctory words in the end, and then watched Li Ying close the door and leave. After pressing a string of familiar numbers and beeping twice, a clear male voice picked up the phone.

"Don't worry, I've come out of your house. ”

"That's the best. ”

I didn't expect him to dare to hide in her closet, and now she was seen by her mother. Fortunately, he just said those words, otherwise both of them would have suffered unnecessary trouble today.

hung up the phone, Hua Ziqi asked Jiang Zhuhe about the engagement on WeChat. Jiang Zhuhe told her that he was not going to get engaged to her this time. When the time comes, he will have his own way, so that she can stay in the laboratory with peace of mind and get the experimental data as soon as possible. Now he seems to be in dire need of the stats so much that she has them by next week.

Hua Ziqi shirked a few words, saying that he would wait at least half a month to get the data he wanted. Now that Xie Hongwen's matter has not been resolved, how can it be possible to let him get the data first.

The next day, she spent the day at home. The way she is now, it is inconvenient to go anywhere, so she can only read books at home. However, now that the date of Xie Hongwen's riot is getting closer and closer, she must hurry up to make arrangements so as not to cause unnecessary harm.

I'm sorry to stay at home for too long, and finally on this day on Friday, Hua Ziqi came to the laboratory in the West District again. Holding a bento in his hand, he put it in front of Xue Chi.

"This is to thank you for helping me out of the siege last time. ”

Xue Chi habitually raised his eyebrows, full of evil spirit, "That's really rare!"

As he spoke, he took the bento from her hand, and the small bento box was very small and cute in his big palm. The off-white outer box is tied with a brown strap on the top.

One serving of rice on the inside, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms and cabbage shrimp on the other, separated by lettuce leaves in the middle, looks very good.

"I didn't expect the pampered eldest lady of the Hua family to cook a good dish. ”

It just so happened that he hadn't eaten breakfast yet, and the food sent by Hua Ziqi also made his appetite move.

It was as if a mechanism had been touched, and the originally relaxed face was now clouded in an instant.

Someone once said this to her. But it's not Xue Chi's praising tone now, it's Xie Hongwen's parents who sarcastically mock her. At the beginning, in order to please Xie Yingfu and Gao Yaqi, she specially enrolled in the cooking class, and suffered a lot to achieve her current achievements. But in the end, it became a shortcoming that others ridiculed.

Looking at her fugue expression, Xue Chi also fell into deep thought. Just now there was a new message on her phone, and the screen lit up for a few seconds, enough for him to see the content on it.

"Who is Jiang Zhuhe?" Xue Chi asked in a deep voice.

"Jiang Zhu River ......"

How did he know about Jiang Zhuhe.

"He just messaged you. ”

Xue Chi's eyes glanced at her phone, and Hua Ziqi realized that she had two unread messages. When she opened it, she knew why Xue Chi was so angry now.

Jiang Zhuhe inside said that she should not agree to the engagement with him tomorrow.

The sensitive word "engagement" must have made Xue Chi fall in love.

Moreover, did Xue Chi really not know Jiang Zhuhe? If Xue Chi did not know Jiang Zhuhe, why did he let her come to Xue Chi's side to get the information on the experimental data? She did not believe that the two people really did not understand each other.

"You and Jiang Zhuhe are getting engaged. ”

It's a declarative sentence that doesn't make much waves. However, the oppressive air around her still made her feel that Xue Chi was angry.

"Yes. ”

Hua Ziqi nodded, "But I don't want to agree." ”

"When did you guys get together?"

"Do you want to check your account? She didn't want to tell him about it.

"You think I'm in love with you?"

He kept his voice in his voice and didn't look at her. His whole face was cloudy, and his displeasure could be seen at a glance.

"I didn't think so. ”

Hua Ziqi's face does not change.

"Don't worry, I won't stand in your way to happiness. Then he added, "Tomorrow you can go to your engagement without it." ”

Frowning, she didn't understand his brain circuit.

What does it mean that it will not block her path to happiness, is Jiang Zhuhe her best place to live? In this life, she does not want to rely on anyone. After experiencing the events of the previous life, she knew that no one in this world could be relied on except herself.

The time was spent in the silence of the two people, and the next morning, Hua Ziqi was originally going not to go to this engagement ceremony. But Li Ying had been watching her from behind her back since the morning, as if she was afraid that she would escape.

Last night, Jiang Zhuhe told her that she could not use it today, and he could solve the matter, so she waited and watched, and now she did not have the joy and happiness of being engaged.

Sure enough, before their departure, someone called Li Ying and said that today's engagement ceremony was canceled.

"Canceled, why canceled? Why do you dare to act so arbitrarily, thinking that we can play with it at will? What do you think of our family?" she hung up. pinched his waist with both hands, obviously he was not angry.

As soon as Li Ying didn't get angry, Hua Haoyu was of course also angry.

But then Jiang Zhuhe personally visited her house and greeted Li Ying and Hua Haoyu gently and politely.

Then he spoke again: "Uncle and aunt are really embarrassed today. We didn't do it on purpose today, but it happened suddenly. We're also caught off guard now. ”
