In the end, Ye Xue got out of the car with a red face. She didnât even dare to look back as she walked into the alley.
This was because Jiang Yu had never acted like a hooligan to her before.
After hurriedly returning home, she saw Father Ye and Mrs Ye sitting at the table. âFather and mother, are you waiting for me?â
Mrs Ye stood up to welcome her when she heard the sound and asked with concern, âXiao Xue, youâre back. How are you? Do Xiao Jiangâs parents like you?â
âThey like me quite a lot. They even gave me a gift.â Ye Xue handed the exquisite gift box to Mrs Ye. âJiang Yu said that his mommy likes me very much. Thatâs why she gave me a gift.â
After saying that, she opened the box and showed Mrs Ye what was inside.
Mrs Ye looked down at the box. The box was not big. Inside was a red velvet cloth. On the velvet cloth was a jade bracelet. The surface was smooth and transparent, without a single flaw.
Mrs Ye was an ordinary citizen. She did not know anything about jade. She knew a little because she had watched a program about the jade appraisal.
âThis jade bracelet must be at least a million dollars.â Mrs Ye widened her eyes after she said that. A bracelet worth tens of thousands of dollars was very valuable to her, not to mention a million dollars.
Ye Xue did not open the box and did not know what was inside. When she heard Mrs Ye say that the jade bracelet was worth a million dollars, she suddenly felt that the box in her hand was a hundred times heavier.
âI didnât know that this was such an expensive jade bracelet. If I knew, I wouldnât have accepted it.â
Mr Ye put out the cigarette in his hand and asked, âWhat do Xiao Jiangâs parents do?â
Ye Xue replied, âHis father seems to be the chairman of the company, and his mother seems to be the chairman of the company too. They are from different companies.â
Even Ye Xue did not know exactly which company Jiang Yuâs parents were the chairman of. When she was in her third year of high school, she heard all these from those female classmates who liked Jiang Yu.
Other than knowing that Jiang Yuâs family was rich, she didnât know anything else.
âThat neighbour was right. A rich family, sigh!â Mrs Ye sighed.
Ye Xue didnât know what had happened. When she saw her daddy light another cigarette, her mommy sighed and couldnât help but be a little anxious. âWhatâs wrong, Mommy?â
Mrs Ye said, âItâs not easy to be the daughter-in-law of a rich family. There are many gossips.â
Ye Xue explained, âJiang Yuâs parents are quite nice. He said that he will get married in the new villa and wonât stay with his parents.â
Mr Ye took a puff of his cigarette and said, âMarriage is about matching the social status. This is an old saying, and it has its reasons.â
Ye Xue did not think about these problems. She knew that Jiang Yu and she were not from the same world too, so there was a big difference.
âI know dad, but I like Jiang Yu. Even if he has nothing, Iâm willing to marry him.â
âMom knows that youâre not after his money. Somehow weâre from a small family, in the future, Iâm afraid that youâll be wronged. There are many things that itâs hard to understand without experiencing it.â Mrs Ye didnât know how to say it either, they had never thought about getting involved with a wealthy family in their entire lives.
Ye Xue sat down at the table and watched her parents worry for her. Now that she thought about it, she was too different from Jiang Yu. After going to his house, she understood even more clearly that it could be said that there was a difference between heaven and earth in their status.
...
Jiang Yu wasnât in a hurry to leave. He sat in the car with his elbows on the steering wheel. The car window was opened and the cold wind blew in, making him feel a little more comfortable.
He was helpless when he saw Ye Xue get out of the car in a panic and run away. However, he could not help but smile. He was indeed too abrupt just now. It would be strange if he did not scare away a shy girl like Ye Xue.
He suddenly thought of cohabitation.
Cohabitation could deepen the relationship between two people and allow them to understand each other better.
He took out his phone and dialled Fu Tingyanâs phone. âI took Ye Xue back to see my parents today.â
âYouâre pretty fast. Congratulations, Brother.â Fu Tingyanâs voice was lazy as if he had just woken up.
âI want to move in with her. Do you think itâs too sudden for me to say this to Ye Xue?â
âAre you sure youâre asking for advice and not here to show off?â
âYouâre my brother, thatâs why Iâm here to ask you. I still think that moving in together will improve our relationship. Iâm afraid that sheâs afraid of getting married. What if she doesnât marry me then?â
â...â Fu Tingyan resisted the urge to roll his eyes. âI just think that youâre here to show off. Weâre brothers. I can only share hardships with you, not happiness. Donât try to trick me into getting a girlfriend.â
Jiang Yu: âBeing in a relationship will make you feel energetic. Youâll be in a good mood every day. You can give it a try.â
Fu Tingyan:â...â he deserved a beating!
âI want to live together with Ye Xue and enjoy the two of us in advance. In the future, when we have children, the quality of the two of us will reduce once we have children...â
â... Du Du du du...â
Before Jiang Yu could finish his sentence, he realized that Xiao Qi had hung up the phone. He sighed. Is it a must to choose Bo Ye?
Fu Tingyan didnât give him a face and directly hung up the phone. He was ready to sleep for a while more. He didnât sleep the whole night last night, and his eyes were a little swollen.
Qin Shu went to the company today. When she came out, she received a phone call.
âQin Yaâs recovery after surgery isnât good. In addition to her terminal cancer, she just passed away.â
Qin Shu hung up the phone. She didnât care about Qin Yaâs life or death, because it was no longer important.
On the way there, she received another phone call from Ye Xue.
From last year until now, she hadnât contacted Ye Xue because she was too busy.
As soon as she picked up, she heard Ye Xueâs sweet voice, âQin Shu, how have you been recent? Are you still busy?â
âIâve been busy. Iâve been looking for someone recently. Have you found a job in Jiangcheng?â
âI just had an interview and was accepted after the interview. I went to Jiang Yuâs house yesterday and his mother gave me a jade bracelet. Shall I return it? Itâs too expensive.â
âCongratulations on your new job. Youâve met his parents. The engagement is coming soon. His mother likes you so she gave you such an expensive gift. Thereâs another meaning. Sheâs very satisfied with you as her daughter-in-law.â. âIf you return it, isnât that showing youâre not satisfied with Jiang Yuâs family and donât want to marry Jiang Yu?â
Qin Shu was happy for Ye Xue. She liked Jiang Yu for eight years. It was not easy for her to get to this step.
Ye Xue hurriedly shook her head. âItâs not that I donât want to marry Jiang Yu. Then I wonât return it.â
âThatâs right. Have you set a date?â
âJiang Yu said that he would get engaged on May 1st and get married on October 1st. I think itâs too fast. He just sent me a message saying that he wants to move in together and live alone in advance.â
Ye Xueâs face turned red as she spoke.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI think itâs pretty good. How did you reply?â
âI havenât replied yet.â
Qin Shu understood Ye Xue quite well and knew that she was probably embarrassed. âIf you think that the progress is too fast, you can cohabit with him first. As for that matter, you can wait a little longer. Itâs best when the time comes.â
Although Ye Xue was still a girl, she understood the meaning of Qin Shuâs words. They could cohabit together and not be in a hurry to be on the same bed.
âItâs not that I donât want to, I just...â Ye Xue didnât know how to put it. She just felt too ashamed.
