Chapter 54: Do You Really Want to Marry Me?
Shang Haowen was so close to them, they should have heard it.
"Well, what's wrong?" Shang Haowen glanced at her calmly, his eyes were not shocked, as if he was nothing.
"Then don't you really want to marry me?" Yun Xiaoli's starry eyes widened in shock.
How so? She hadn't even thought about it.
"Why not?" Shang Haowen raised his eyebrows slightly, and his face was calm.
If the people around him are Yun Xiaoli, marriage doesn't seem to be so exclusive.
"What?!" Yun Xiaoli was flustered, raised his eyes and glared at Shang Haowen and asked, "When you signed the contract with me, you didn't say that you really did this thing. β
Damn it! What should I do now? She felt as if she had fallen into a trap that Shang Haowen had prepared and could not escape......
"Do you want to go back? Do you remember what the contract was about? Shang Haowen turned his head to look at her, narrowing his deep eyes slightly, and there was an inexplicable hint of threat in his low tone.
If you want to regret it now, it's too late! He won't let go of the fish he gets his hands on......
"I didn't ...... I didn't want to regret it......" Yun Xiaoli snorted, Shang Haowen had already helped her complete most of the terms of the contract, and the rest was just to take back the Yun family and the winery.
And she's just playing her fiancΓ©e for a while.
Thinking about it like this, I can't help but feel a lot better, presumably Shang Haowen will not really marry her, after all, the contract was signed.
With the contract in hand, her heart settled down a little......
"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly." Shang Haowen looked at her meaningfully, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.
Yun Xiaoli wanted to say something, but Xiao Ruyi's voice came.
"Xiao Li, Haowen, it's time to eat."
Shang Haowen got up and took Yun Xiaoli's hand and walked to the restaurant.
The European-style retro dining room has a large long table in the middle and aquatic flowers in the middle, exuding a faint fragrance.
Delicate dishes are served by the servant, and when the copper lid on the plate is opened, the aroma of the food instantly evaporates into the air.
"Xiao Li, come and sit on my aunt's side." Xiao Ruyi saw Yun Xiaoli coming, and immediately beckoned to her cordially.
Yun Xiaoli sat beside Xiao Ruyi obediently, and a soft smile was put on her delicate little face again.
Xiao Ruyi used chopsticks to clip a piece of ancient pineapple meat to Yun Xiaoli, and said with a smile: "Haowen said that you like to eat Cantonese cuisine and Sichuan cuisine, I specially ordered you to make dishes of these two cuisines tonight, you can taste it and see if you like it." β
Yun Xiaoli has similar tastes to hers, and her favorite dishes are Sichuan and Cantonese cuisine.
After tasting it, Yun Xiaoli's sense of taste was instantly conquered: "It's delicious, aunt, you bothered." β
"Don't bother, Luo Ying and I both like these two cuisines, and we usually cook them." Xiao Ruyi explained with a smile, it seems that the women of their merchants are all the same taste.
Sure enough, it's not a family, and it doesn't enter a family.
"Luo Ying, who is?" When Yun Xiaoli heard this unfamiliar name for the first time, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.
The name sounds like a girl, and when Xiao Ruyi mentions her, her eyes are full of tenderness.
"Luo Ying is Haowen's sister, didn't he tell you?" She thought that Shang Haowen had already told Yun Xiaoli.
"No, isn't she home?" I didn't expect Shang Haowen to have a younger sister, I don't know what kind of person she is.
"Luo Ying is at the military academy of country M, but she has already graduated, and she should be back in the next few days." Speaking of Shang Luoying, Xiao Ruyi seemed a little helpless and relieved.
"That's right." Yun Xiaoli nodded obediently, no wonder he didn't see her in the villa.
However, I was a little curious about Shang Haowen's sister.
"When she comes back and asks Haowen to introduce you to each other, you will definitely be able to talk together." Since Yun Xiaoli is the daughter-in-law of their business, the relationship with the sister-in-law must get along well.
Besides, Yun Xiaoli's personality is so pleasing, Shang Luoying will definitely like her very much.
"Okay." Yun Xiaoli readily agreed, quite curious about Shang Haowen's sister, I don't know if it will be the same as him?
A dinner, the guests and hosts are happy, Xiao Ruyi has completely set Yun Xiaoli as the next daughter-in-law of the business, the more she looks at her, the more she likes it, and she is full of advantages.
No matter how you look at Yun Xiaoli, you feel that she is not the most compatible with Shang Haowen.
After the meal, the four of them sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Xiao Ruyi still pulled Yun Xiaoli to greet her, as if she had endless words.
"Mom, Dad, it's not too early, Xiao Li and I should go back." Shang Haowen glanced at the time, it was already past nine o'clock.
"I'm going back so soon." Xiao Ruyi looked at Yun Xiaoli's gaze reluctantly, how did time pass so quickly? She still has a lot to say to Yun Xiaoli.
"I'll often bring Xiao Li back to see you." Shang Haowen saw Xiao Ruyi's gaze and said helplessly.
If he didn't say this, Xiao Ruyi's tears might come out in the next second.
"No problem, then you can bring Xiao Li back at least once a week to see me and your father." When Xiao Ruyi heard this, she immediately smiled.
Shang Luoying is not here, and there is usually no one at home to talk to her, both father and son are stuffy, and finally have a daughter-in-law to accompany her, how can she let go of such a good opportunity?
"I see." Shang Haowen reluctantly agreed, if he didn't agree, Xiao Ruyi might not let them go at all......
"You and my dad should rest early, and Xiao Li and I will go back first." Saying that, Shang Haowen was going to take Yun Xiaoli back.
"Hey...... Wait, I almost forgot the gift for Xiao Li. Xiao Ruyi's eyes flashed a trace of annoyance, and she chatted with Yun Xiaoli so happily that she even forgot to get down to business: "You wait for me a little." β
After the words fell, she immediately got up and went upstairs, but within two minutes, Xiao Ruyi brought a black velvet gift box and a red envelope.
Xiao Ruyi sat elegantly beside Yun Xiaoli, put the red envelope into her hand, and said softly: "Xiaoli, this is a gift from your uncle and aunt. β
"Auntie, I ......" Yun Xiaoli wanted to refuse, but Xiao Ruyi interrupted her: "This is the merchant's heirloom bracelet, which is specially passed on to the merchant's daughter-in-law, and it will be yours in the future......"
In the black gift box, a pair of delicately shaped, lifelike golden bracelets lie quietly, and the delicate lines are carved with dragons and phoenixes.
"Auntie, I can't take it, it's a family heirloom......"
Yun Xiaoli wanted to refuse, a deep guilt surged in her heart, she was not Xiao Ruyi's real daughter-in-law, I am afraid it will make her sad in the future......
Xiao Ruyi solemnly put the gift box in Yun Xiaoli's hand, and announced seriously and domineeringly: "You are the quasi-daughter-in-law recognized by my Xiao Ruyi, who will you give the heirloom to?" Take it! β
Yun Xiaoli accepted this pair of bracelets, so that she could feel more at ease, and no one could snatch away the daughter-in-law she Xiao Ruyi had booked.
"Thank you, auntie." Yun Xiaoli couldn't refuse, so he could only reluctantly accept the two valuable meeting gifts, his heart became heavy, and he was guilty and flustered at the bottom of his heart.
Xiao Ruyi didn't seem to be joking, and seemed to really identify her.
But she and Shang Haowen are only in a contractual relationship, what if they are dismantled in the future?
"Aunt knows that you are a good child, you and Haowen are fine, and you have time to come back to see us." Xiao Ruyi smiled happily, and her gentle eyes looked at Yun Xiaoli softly.
When Yun Xiaoli and Shang Haowen get married, it's better for them to live together.
This makes it possible to see each other every day, which is the perfect excuse for her to miss ......
"Okay, then Haowen and I will go back first, and you and your uncle will rest early." A smile appeared on Yun Xiaoli's face.
"Okay." Xiao Ruyi and Shang Ruijie personally sent the two of them to the door, and watched the Rolls-Royce gradually move away before turning around and returning to the villa.
"Husband, what do you think of Xiao Li?" Xiao Ruyi took Shang Ruijie's arm and asked coquettishly.
Although Shang Ruijie was very quiet today, she could feel that he was still satisfied with Yun Xiaoli.
"A very good girl, don't you like her very much?" Shang Ruijie's first impression of Yun Xiaoli was very good, not to mention that she made Xiao Ruyi so happy today, and her impression in his heart was indeed even better.
"Of course, Xiao Li's beautiful and well-behaved daughter-in-law is not easy to find, and you don't know how picky Haowen's stinky boy is." Although Xiao Ruyi complained in her mouth, the joy between her eyebrows was not hidden at all.
"Xiao Li is a poor girl, if she marries our business in the future, she will definitely treat her well." Of course, his heart is still waiting, and he will not put Shang Haowen's lifelong happiness into it because of sympathy or Xiao Ruyi's liking.
"You're right, she will be my daughter in the future, and whoever bullies her will not be able to get along with me." Xiao Ruyi overbearingly declared sovereignty, who is so bold and daring to move her daughter-in-law Xiao Ruyi?
"I think Haowen's stinky boy is really different to Xiao Li." Shang Haowen looked at Yun Xiaoli's gaze with rare concentration, it was the first time he saw Shang Haowen, looking at a girl so tenderly.
"Of course, otherwise Haowen wouldn't have brought her home." Xiao Ruyi nodded with a smile, and then couldn't wait to say: "Husband, do you think I want to urge Haowen to marry Xiao Li home quickly?" How about next month? β
Otherwise, according to Shang Haowen's character, when will she be able to hold her eldest grandson?
"Haowen's daughter-in-law has brought you back, can your grandson be far away? You don't care. Shang Ruijie couldn't help but laugh and persuade.
He deeply understands Xiao Ruyi's character, and if she is really asked to join in the fun, it may have the opposite effect.
"You have a point, okay then." Xiao Ruyi thought about it for a while, what Shang Ruijie said was right, anyway, the daughter-in-law has it, and the grandson will come sooner or later.
However, she still has to find an opportunity to tell Shang Haowen to settle down with Yun Xiaoli quickly, otherwise what if her daughter-in-law runs away?
A Rolls-Royce drives on the road.
Inside the car.
Yun Xiaoli looked at the velvet gift box in his hand, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions.
She never thought that Shang Haowen's mother would be so enthusiastic, making her feel the long-lost family affection.
So receiving this pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets really made her feel very guilty, and she deserved it......
She and Shang Haowen are not really a couple after all, after meeting Xiao Ruyi, she feels that the relationship between her and Shang Haowen should end as soon as possible.
