Yang Ruoxi was embarrassed and reluctant to accept the gold necklace. She had refused to accept the golden necklace. How could she suddenly accept the bracelet? The bracelet looked small, but it definitely wasnât cheap. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She sighed and leaned back on the bed. âWhy did you bring everything with you?â
Seeing that Yang Ruoxi didnât accept both his gifts, he turned around angrily with his back facing her. âYou just donât want to be with me! It doesnât matter how expensive it is. Itâs for you. Thatâs all that matters.â
Yang Ruoxi didnât know what to do. She placed her hands on his shoulder. He didnât turn to her.
âXixi, Iâm sure about this. I love you. I know the gold necklace doesnât look too good, but my grandmother wants you to have it because she has accepted you.
She likes you. I donât mind giving the world to you. You donât have to feel reluctant.â
Yang Ruoxi felt that he was furious at her. âJust turn around and give me a smile. â
âIâll wear it. See?â Yang Ruoxi put the gold necklace around her neck. âIf you decide that you donât want me in your life in the future, Iâll return it to you.â
âThatâs impossible.â Tiantian turned to face her. âHow could I want anyone else besides you?â
âDoes it look good?â she asked as she looked at the god necklace that hung from her neck. She lifted her phone and took a selfie. âHm⦠since your grandmother gave me gold⦠does that mean Iâm your bride now?â
Tiantian chuckled. âLet me take a picture and send it to my grandmother. Sheâll be happy that you accepted it. Otherwise, sheâll think I failed.â He recorded a
short video and sent it to his grandmother.
The old woman who was taking photos of the scenic place on her trip got a notification on her phone. She opened the video she had just received and smiled.
âCome and look! Tiantian sent a video!â said his grandmother and showed the video to Tiantianâs parents.
The four of them were happy.
âMy grandson is really something,â said Tiantianâs grandmother. âHe is not at all like you.â She glanced at Tiantianâs father. âYou took three years to win Pingpingâs heart.â
âOh, please. What about father? He had been in love with you for ten years but couldnât muster up the courage to talk to you! Iâm at least better than him.â
Tiantianâs grandfather smacked his son with a branch. âHey! Why are you dragging me into this? Itâs good that our family is getting faster and stronger with each generation. It would be worrisome otherwise.â
âThatâs right,â said Tiantianâs mother and laughed.
âXixi is so adorable. Look at her smile. I feel like her smile lights up the world,â said Grandma Liu.
They used to be hard on Tiantianâs father, but they had mellowed out with time.
Tiantianâs father used to be so shy that he rarely went out of the house to talk to people. It was one of the reasons that he had taken three whole years to win over Tiantianâs mother.
Tiantian was so naughty as a child, but his grandparents doted on him. Grandpa Liu would scold Tiantianâs father for spoiling his son, but he never shouted at Tiantian directly.
Tiantianâs father had once had a big fight with Grandpa Liu. He told him
outngnc mat not everyooay naa cne same mentality ana mat people neeaea to learn to change with the times. After that, Tiantianâs grandparents became more open.
âShould we visit Yang Ruoxiâs family? Tiantian is almost thirty. We need to get them married,â said Grandma Liu.
âOh, come on. We canât push them like that. The younger generation is not like the older generation. The typical mentality of the older generation,â said Tiantianâs father.
âNo⦠itâs a problem with parents who have just one child, especially when they have a son. They are always worried that the son wonât be able to find a wife,â said Xu Ping. She really wanted to get her son married too.
âMom, we have to be careful this time,â said Xu Ping as she turned to Grandma Liu. âThe children are in love. They studied together in a foreign country. We need to be very polite, alright?â Her sisters had introduced many potential partners to her son, but he had rejected them all.
âYes! Weâll be very careful. Finally, Tiantian has a girlfriend!â
Xu Ping had been worried when Tiantian had told her that he was dating someone in a foreign country. She had assumed it would be someone from abroad. However, when he told her that Yang Ruoxi was from Cine and was only there to study, she felt more at ease.
The four of them discussed and each sent a message on the family group chat. They praised Yang Ruoxi and Tiantian and asked when they would get to meet her family.
Yang Ruoxi was red in the face when Tiantian showed her the messages.
âGive me a few days to think about it. Iâll find Wanwan and talk to her about it too. I need to make it so that it wonât come as a shock to my father and my grandmother.â Yang Ruoxi needed to confide this to Lin Wan.
âAlright. Take all the time you need. Iâll wait for you.â Tiantian held her in his arms.
At the Lin familyâs old house, Lin Wan made an excuse to go to town and dragged Li Yanchen along with her to the seafood market.
She texted Yang Ruoxi when they were finally outside. âMr. Li and I are heading to the market. Let me know when you are done. We can head home together.â
At ten in the morning, Yang Ruoxi put on her clothes. âWhy donât you come with me to the car? We can take a walk. Itâs so stuffy here.â
She freshened up and headed to the car..
