179 When are you going to get married?
When he received Wei Lai's call, Xue Yan was celebrating the New Year at his mother's house in Guangzhou.
Since taking Mu Mu back to himself, he rarely goes back to Guangzhou, and this year is also because the Chinese New Year is approaching, and his parents miss their grandchildren, so he flew back to Guangzhou with Mu Mu.
Xue Yan's relationship with his parents is actually not as warm as others. His parents are both professors, and they have been very demanding of him since he was a child, and if he doesn't like it, he will beat and scold him, until Xue Yan went abroad to study, and his communication with his parents only stopped at daily greetings.
Compared with Xue Yan, the children have a good relationship with their grandparents, probably because they grew up with their grandparents, and Mu Mu also loves to be coquettish with the two old people.
After lunch, Xue Yan sat on the sofa and watched TV, and did not communicate too much with his parents, but the second elder of the Xue family saw his silent appearance, glanced at each other and walked up.
Xue Zizhang raised his fist to his lips. He coughed lightly and said, "Ah Yan, how old are you this year?" ”
Xue Yan looked at the TV intently and said casually: "35." What's wrong? ”
Xue Zizhang and his wife Chen Fanghua glanced at each other, and said in a deep voice: "Ah Yan, Lin Su has been gone for so long, you should also consider finding another one, right?" ”
Xue Yan understood his parents' intentions, it turned out that before the Chinese New Year, he was told to come back, just for this kind of thing?
He turned his head, swept his gaze over his parents' faces, and finally said indifferently, "I have no idea of marrying another wife." ”
He used to be really obsessed with Song Qingge, but later he also recognized the facts. The person she loves will only be Zhan Qi, and she will never have his status in her heart. Since this is the case, he might as well be her "Big Brother Xue" obediently.
After Lin Su passed away, he also met all kinds of women, many of whom pursued him, and the most persistent was naturally Wei Lai, but for so many years, except for Song Qingge, he had never been interested in any woman.
Xue Zizhang was a little anxious, slapped the table and said, "You don't want to marry a wife, what about Mumu?" A child without a mother will not grow up healthily, don't you think about yourself and your children? ”
Xue Yan still had that expressionless look, "Isn't Mu Mu still healthy without his mother for so many years?" There's no need to force him to find a stepmother. ”
"You!" Xue Zizhang was furious and was about to scold him, but Xue Yan's mobile phone suddenly rang, it was Wei Lai's phone.
For Wei Lai, Xue Yan really knows her temperament too well, he can not answer the phone of anyone in this world, but he can't not answer Wei Lai. Otherwise, the woman would use her strength to tell her how serious the consequences of tricks and deaths were.
Ignore your parents. Xue Yan held his mobile phone and walked straight to the balcony and picked up the phone.
"Xue Yan?" Compared with the women who would shout as soon as they picked up the phone, Wei Lai seemed very cautious today, and his voice was still crying.
Xue Yan immediately realized that something was wrong, and frowned, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Where are you now? Can you go back to Banyan City? Wei Lai was about to cry, "You can help me." Please. ”
She rarely had such a vulnerable side, and Xue Yan's tone also became heavy, "Don't worry, you speak slowly." ”
Wei Lai sniffed and choked up: "My parents asked me to go on a blind date, and they also said that if I don't get married this time, they will directly find a relationship from the Civil Affairs Bureau to get me a marriage certificate, even if they tie me up, they will tie me to the wedding." I told them I had someone I liked, but they didn't believe me. Xue Yan, I beg you, you come back. Can you meet my parents and help me? ”
Although he sympathized with her, Xue Yan didn't know how to help her, and asked weakly, "Then what do you want me to do?" ”
Wei Lai seemed to see the light of day in an instant, and said eagerly: "No matter what, you just pretend to be my boyfriend and have dinner with my parents." ”
Xue Yan was skeptical, "This can help you?" ”
"Uh-huh!" Wei Lai responded.
Anyway, the two have been friends for so many years. If he really saw Wei Lai being forced to marry like this by his family, he still couldn't bear it, so he said: "Then you wait for me, I'll buy a ticket back to Rongcheng tonight." ”
"Okay, okay!" Wei Lai was overjoyed, "I'll wait for you." ”
Frankly speaking, Xue Yan actually didn't want to stay with his parents, and now he could find an excuse to leave, so why not do it.
When the Xue family saw him answer the phone and come back, they immediately asked, "Who is it?" Have you got a girlfriend? Going back? When to go? ”
This series of questions made Xue Yan frown. Impatiently said: "It's just a friend, I'm going to rush back to Rongcheng tonight, Mumu." It's time to pack your things! ”
"Oh......" Although Mu Mu didn't understand why he was about to leave suddenly, he was still obedient.
The Xue family wanted to say something, but Xue Yan didn't want to hear it. They had no choice but to swallow it.
For this son, they couldn't control it in the first place.

Xue Yan returned to Rongcheng that night, and according to the agreement with Wei Lai, he would go to the hotel at noon the next day to meet his parents.
When Xue Yan arrived at the hotel, Wei Lai was already waiting there, her face was very bad, her eyes were red, and there was a green shadow under her eyes that couldn't be covered by cosmetics, and it could be seen that she had a really bad time in the past few days.
Seeing him coming, Wei Lai immediately greeted him, and said in surprise and fear: "I thought you wouldn't come." ”
Xue Yan can be said to be her last hope, if even he refuses to help her, she will probably really be forced to marry.
Xue Yan just said lightly: "Let's go." ”
"Hmm." Wei Lai nodded heavily, stepped forward to hold his arm, Xue Yan's body stiffened, but quickly returned to normal.
After all, she is playing a boyfriend and girlfriend, if she doesn't act really, how can she hide it from her parents?
Wei Lai's family background is also very good, and he is sitting in an elegantly decorated box waiting for them at this time, and the two elders' faces are not good, and they still look angry.
The two walked in, and Wei Lai called out cautiously, "Dad, Mom, this is my boyfriend, Xue Yan." ”
The Wei family didn't say anything, just raised their chins to the side, "Sit down." ”
The process of eating was very simple, Wei Lai's mother asked Xue Yan some personal questions without a match, and Xue Yan answered politely, and it could be seen that Wei Lai's mother was not completely disinterested in him.
It wasn't until he was almost finished eating that Wei Lai's father put down his chopsticks and said solemnly: "When are you going to get married?" ”
