As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the living room was dimly lit, and there was a person sitting in the corner of the sofa, it was Cheng Mo.

He looked up at me casually and said, "I'm back so late, I won't make a phone call in advance, Mom is waiting for you to be late, and you have just gone upstairs." ”

"Well, I didn't expect it to be so late." I whispered, looked down the stairs and said, "Is Mom asleep?" ”

"If you had thought so, the call would have come back early." After he finished speaking, he stood up, "My family has a habit of waiting for you, remember to inform me if it's too late in the future, eldest miss." ”

I saw that he was about to go upstairs, and I was a little anxious, so I deliberately touched my hair with my hand in front of him, so that the flash of the diamond ring shook in front of him.

Living up to my expectations, Cheng Mo saw the ring, and asked with a twist of his eyebrows: "Who gave it?" ”

"Who else do you think?" I sat down across from him, pushed him back onto the couch and said, "Look, isn't it pretty?" ”

Cheng Mo's face was ugly: "Hua Yuanshu? ”

"Hmm." I nodded and blinked, "Don't you think Hua Yuanshu is a good candidate?" Even in the current ladies circle of the imperial capital, Hua Yuanshu's reputation is not bad, and the ranking to be married is not low, the only fly in the ointment is that he has been married and has children. ”

"It just so happens that you don't care about this, and it can even be said that you approached him for this." Cheng Mo was stunned.

"Yes, exactly, so do you think I'm one step closer to success?" I say.

Cheng Mo didn't speak, his face became darker and darker, and finally lowered his voice and came to my ear and said, "Lin Jingyan, you should think about how to explain to your parents first, as a girl from the Cheng family, you agreed to other people's marriage proposals, and you didn't even mention a word to your parents, isn't it a bit too much?" ”

I heard the anger in his words, and paused before saying, "Because no one knows for sure when he will propose, and since he is ready, and I am mentally ready, why not agree?" ”

"Okay, you can explain it yourself." Cheng Mo patted the armrests of the sofa with both hands, stood up directly, and went upstairs directly with a resolute posture, leaving me alone in the living room.

I sat under the floor lamp for a while, calmed down, and then slowly walked upstairs.

In fact, before I entered the door just now, I was mentally prepared, no matter what they said, I would never let go of the marriage proposal, even if it was a break with the family.

If it really breaks up, I'm relieved. There is no need to continue to play Cheng Zi in front of the Cheng family, and the guilt in his heart may be less.

I sat until twelve o'clock in the morning, the whole room was quiet, I straightened out my thoughts, and quietly went back to my room. I didn't say anything all night, and I slept until dawn. I know I need a good night's sleep and there's a war at breakfast tomorrow morning.

At half past six in the morning, before the alarm clock went off, I opened my eyes, turned off the alarm clock and started to get up and wash. I picked out a light blue professional outfit for myself, a set of broken diamonds into heart-shaped jewelry, and then put on a delicate makeup, with a smile on my face, and when I saw that it was seven o'clock in the morning, I took a deep breath and went downstairs.

I appeared in the living room dressed neatly, attracting the eyes of all three people in the living room.

"Skipping breakfast?" Guan Yunzhu asked me.

As soon as I heard the tone, it was too normal, not at all like the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings, so I walked over with my bag and said, "Mom, didn't my brother tell you?" ”

Guan Yunzhu's face was foggy, and Cheng Mo looked at me and gritted my teeth.

"Is this pretty?" I raised my hand to Guan Yunzhu so that she could see the ring on my hand.

Guan Yunzhu's face changed and looked at Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo glared at me, immediately sat up straight and said, "She said when she came back last night, Hua Yuanshu proposed to her, and she agreed, I thought about telling you this morning, seeing that the breakfast was so rich, I forgot." ”

"Hua Yuanshu?" Guan Yunzhu looked at me and asked, "Are you sure you won't regret your promise to him?" ”

"Mom, he's been chasing me lately." I say.

Guan Yunzhu sighed, closed her eyes and suppressed her anger, stood up and pulled me to the sofa and said, "Ah Zi, women can't accept a person they don't know and don't like because of a short emotional window period, and what is moved is not called love, it is called gratitude." What kind of feelings you have for Hua Yuanshu, you should know it yourself. ”

Her words made a lot of sense, but I couldn't accept them. Because, if he is not sincere, I must be a hypocrite. It's a play where both sides hide and deceive each other.

"Mom, I made an appointment with him to have morning tea this morning, can I come back in the evening." I looked at my watch and said a little anxiously.

I don't refute Guan Yunzhu's words, and I don't comment on her words, I just said that I was in a hurry, and I was in a hurry to go to Huayuanshu. Guan Yunzhu is a smart person, and he immediately heard the meaning of my words, and smiled a little far-fetched and said: "Ah Zi, since you are in such a hurry, go first, come back early in the evening, this matter is not a trivial matter, and the whole family needs to have a good chat." ”

"Well, I know. It's just a promise to propose, not a marriage license, don't be in a hurry. I said goodbye to everyone and pushed open the door with my bag.

Outside, I breathed in the fresh air, relaxed, stretched and walked to my parking space. In front of Guan Yunzhu just now, I was very calm on the surface, but in fact, I was nervous in my heart, I didn't want to fall out with her, and I didn't want her to be anxious about my feelings, but I couldn't help but do it, so I was tormented every second in front of her.

In fact, parents are the same, no matter how good the other party is, they always feel dissatisfied. After all, from their standpoint, the other party is the enemy who snatched their precious daughter or son.

As soon as I turned the corner, I saw Hua Yuanshu's car parked there, and he rolled down the window and waved to me. I was stunned and walked over quickly.

"Why are you here?" I asked.

"Isn't it supposed to pick up my fiancée from work?" He jumped out of the car door as he spoke, pulled the door open for me, and asked, "You must have missed breakfast when you came out so early, what do you want to eat?" ”

With that, he closed the car door, walked to the driver's seat himself, and helped me fasten my seatbelt.

Huayuan Tree, who has established a relationship with me, is so warm that it makes people's hearts move. His actions, coupled with his carefulness and attentiveness, as well as such an identity and appearance, really have a bit of an impeccable feeling.

"Whatever." I said, "Just eat a little bit in the morning, and then eat a good meal." ”

"Then go for morning tea, I know a hotel that does a good job of morning tea." Hua Yuanshu looked at the time, "It's not far from our company, so it's completely in time." ”

"Okay." I said with a smile.

Since you have spoken casually to others, you have to listen to other people's arrangements.

Hua Yuanshu chose indeed a hotel not far from the company, it is estimated that because of the high price, so there are few people in the restaurant, the environment is very good, and all the snacks and snacks are exquisite like works of art.

Hua Yuanshu sat across from me with a gentlemanly demeanor, thoughtfully sandwiched into my small dinner plate, everything is my favorite food, and he would say softly when he came over: "A little more, this is your favorite." ”

I was quickly fed by him, put down my chopsticks and said to him, "I really can't eat anymore." ”

He smiled, reached over the table, pinched my face and said, "You are too thin, eat more, don't be afraid of being fat, women should have more meat." ”

"It's not a fat thing, I'm really full." I put his hand away and said helplessly.

He stopped, poured me another cup of tea, hesitated for a moment and said, "Ah Zi, there is something I may not have told you in advance, but now I hope it's not too late." ”

When I looked at his tangled and hesitant look, I felt a little uncertain, and I didn't know what he was going to say.

He looked at me and said, "Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal." My mother won't have any opinions on me and you, and now that I'm a full adult, I can ignore her opinions. But ......," he said with a smile, "but my daughter and son are a little bit less talkative. ”

Hearing him mention Xiaoru and Yueyue in front of me for the first time, my ears swooped up, for fear of missing every word.

"You know, I have two children. Of course, they are very easy to get along with and have a gentle personality, but the child is always a little grumpy. I want to find an opportunity for you to get along with them first, so as not to intervene too suddenly in family life in the future, and there will be any conflicts. Hua Yuanshu considered the words and looked at my face and said.

I let myself laugh easily: "I thought something important, it turned out to be about children." I also paused, saw Hua Yuanshu's expectant eyes, and continued, "I knew about this matter for a long time, but I have been hesitating to accept you, just for this matter." But if you don't mention it, I can't talk about it myself, and it seems like I care how much I mind you have children. ”

"You don't mind?" He asked.

"I don't mind if it's fake." I looked at him and said, "But because it's your child and your biological mother has died, I don't mind, I'll try to be good to them in the future." I don't want to say anything about it, but one thing, if you don't agree, we can have no children in the future. ”

When Hua Yuanshu heard my words, his eyes lit up: "Can you really accept not having your own children?" ”

"It's okay now, but it may change in the future." I didn't say anything to death, otherwise it would have been too fake.

Hua Yuanshu was obviously very satisfied with my answer, and even took my hand excitedly: "Then it's better to go to the kindergarten to pick them up from school this afternoon, and then have a light meal at home in the evening." Okay? ”

I thought of Guan Yunzhu asking me to go home earlier, but I couldn't refuse the opportunity to get close to the two children, and after thinking about it for more than ten seconds, I nodded to Hua Yuanshu, thinking that I would notify Guan Yunzhu in advance and ask her not to wait for me.
