In the end, all he could do was to glare at her intensely, âItâs me who canât live without you. Without you, I would be alone for the rest of my life. If I donât marry you, Iâll be a lifelong bachelor, forever topping the list of die-hard bachelors. Is that what you want?â
Ye Xingguang was left speechless by his statement. She told herself not to grin, yet her lips still curled up uncontrollably into a smirk. She snorted twice to save her pride.
âThese are your words, not mine. Itâs not me who is desperate to marry you, but you who canât live without marrying me. Itâs you whoâs keen on getting engaged and marrying me, not me.â
Otherwise, it would make her feel very frustrated.
While Ye Junqing was keeping his hand steady on the steering wheel, his other hand clasped hers, their fingers intertwined, âYouâre right, itâs all me! Therefore, you are not allowed to say you donât want to be engaged with me. Understand?â
Ye Xingguang, who was unable to resist his sweet words, pursed her lips and said, âThen tell me, what aspects of me do your parents dislike? Canât I change? My parents are already talking about setting a date for engagement, and theyâre waiting for your parents to visit. What should I tell my parents now?â
Ye Junqing didnât utter a word, his face tense.
âSo, you donât know either?â Ye Xingguang asked, despondently.
If they didnât know the cause, how could they find a solution?
If Ye Junqing did know, he wouldnât be so aggravated. Moreover, âWhat do you need to change? Theyâre the ones being nitpicky, not you. They should be the ones to reflect upon their attitudes, not you. So donât feel burdened by a pair of snobbish, nasty in-laws!â
Ye Xingguang, ââ¦â
Ye Xingguang, âYou shouldnât talk about your parents like that. As a good husband, you should mediate mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problems, not exacerbate them. And keep in mind, they are your parents.â
Parents are, of course, oneâs birth parents, but Ye Junqing was clearly annoyed that they wanted to have an interfamily marriage without his consent.
Ye Xingguang took out her cell phone and said, âNever mind about you, Iâll ask my sister-in-law for a hint. I still hope to win over my future in-laws. I canât let you forget your parents just because you will have a wife.â
With those words, she called Yi Yujian, completely unaware that she swept away Ye Junqingâs bad mood with the two words she said.
Having a wife means forgetting his motherâ¦
Little fishtail, has she already accepted the fact that she is his wife in her heart?
Reminder note!
Damn it, Ye Junqingâs face turned into regret instantly, he had forgotten to record!
Yi Yujian responded over the phone, âDonât worry, your future in-laws like you. Previously, they even offered me some jewelry sets and engagement gifts from my motherâs business, which are being prepared as we speak. As for the specific reasons, I will ask them.â
âAlright.â
âRest assured, you are the only sister-in-law I acknowledge, and Shiting feels the same way. Whoever dares to cancel your engagement with him, we will be the first to refuse.â
Listening to her sister-in-lawâs words, Ye Xingguang felt warmth in her heart, but still felt uneasy considering the attitude of her future in-laws. Could there be something that they couldnât reveal?
At nine oâclock in the evening, Yi Yujian and Ye Shiting really went to talk to their parents about the situation. After Shitingâs successful presidential election, he only took three days off before he got involved in the President-electâs preparations, selecting new leadership teams and being incredibly busy. But upon hearing Yi Yujianâs words, no matter their evening arrangements, they arranged to talk with their parents about the situation. Even Ye Shiting was curious about the reasons why their parents were unwilling to visit the parents of his younger brotherâs significant other at the hospital?
