Facing Qin Changyue's inquiry, Mu Wanying was flustered. Not only did she like Tan Xiu, but it was also not an exaggeration to say that she "loved" him. Yet, she wanted to confide her heart to Tan Xiu's grandmother. Her inner modesty made her embarrassed and blushed.
"I …"
Mu Wanying opened her mouth, but her words seemed to be stuck in her throat.
Qin Changyue's expression was very serious. Looking at Mu Wanying's appearance, she spoke in a sincere and heartfelt tone, "Wanying, it's true that a girl should be reserved. But if you delay your marriage because of this, then the gains will outweigh the losses. If you like our family's Xiu, then tell Grandma seriously. Grandma believes that he is not a heartless child. "
Mu Wanying recalled that Tan Xiu had so many confidantes and competitors. Suddenly, courage rose inside her heart as she gently nodded and said, "I like him."
Qin Changyue's serious expression melted as a smile climbed up on her obviously younger face. She pulled Mu Wanying's hand and said with satisfaction, "It's good that you like him. Grandma will give you justice. If that stinky brat dares to bully you, I won't spare him. "
Mu Wanying was somewhat moved inside, but she still said, "Thank you, Grandma. But I don't want to force Tan Xiu and me. He's still a freshman, and it's still too early. We'll get along slowly, and I'll fight for it with my own efforts. Grandma, don't give him pressure. "
Qin Changyue's eyes lit up. Mu Wanying's words made her have a whole new level of respect for this girl. She nodded and said with a smile, "Don't worry! Grandma won't give him pressure, but Grandma can't just stand by and watch. Grandma knows what to do. "
In the evening.
Tan Xiu returned to the Tang Family's Ancestral Residence. What he didn't expect was that almost all of his family's members in the Imperial Capital were present. Even his First Uncle, Tang Yunpeng, who happened to return to the Imperial Capital for a meeting, wore a smile as he sat on the sofa in the hall.
"You guys are …"
Tan Xiu looked at Mu Wanying, who had hurriedly stood up from the sofa in a panic, and then looked at the dozens of smiling relatives. The bad feeling in his heart grew stronger.
A smile blossomed on Qin Changyue's face. She waved her hand toward Tan Xiu and said, "Good grandson, come to grandma."
Tan Xiu walked over and asked, "Grandma, did something happen at home? Why are so many people here today? "
Qin Changyue said with a smile, "My good grandson, Grandma heard that you exposed that Wanying is your girlfriend in that club today?"
Me?
Although Tan Xiu had guessed that everyone was here because of Mu Wanying, he was not the one who exposed himself! It was clear that Mu Wanying was the one who called him that, which caused everyone to misunderstand. He wanted to explain, but he was afraid that Mu Wanying would feel awkward, so he said with a wry smile, "Grandma, there's no need to hold a meeting with great fanfare regarding the emotional issues of us juniors, right?"
Qin Changyue said, "Silly child, we as the elders must pay attention to the emotional issues of the juniors! What kind of wife you will marry in the future is related to the face of our Tang Family. Wanying is a very good child, very outstanding. Grandma likes her, and everyone is also satisfied with her. "
"I … I'll go to hell!"
Tan Xiu cursed inwardly.
Qin Changyue said, "Xiu, Grandma wouldn't have called everyone here if your relationship had not been exposed. But your relationship has been known by others. I believe it won't take long for the entire circle in the Imperial Capital to know that Wanying is your girlfriend. Even if you don't think for yourself, you have to think for Wanying, right? She's a girl's innocence, and it's in your hands. "
Tan Xiu forced a smile and said, "Grandma, isn't what you said too … too exaggerated? How is this related to her innocence? "
Qin Changyue said with all seriousness, "You can't say it like that, Xiu. Members of our family pay more attention to emotional issues. The Mu Family's little princess is your girlfriend. She will be labeled as a member of our Tang Family after this news is spread out. Everyone will regard her as a member of our Tang Family later. Tell me, if she doesn't marry you in the future, who will be willing to marry her? Is it possible that you have a new lover and let everyone think that Wanying has been abandoned by you? How will she have the face to meet people at that time? "
"I …"
Tan Xiu was dumbfounded. He had never thought about this issue before. But after hearing Qin Changyue's words, he suddenly realized that what his grandma said was right.
But …
But he and Mu Wanying were, after all, a fake couple! If they were to be forced to be together, even if nothing happened to him, Mu Wanying wouldn't be willing!
Tang Guosheng happily stood up. He waved his hand and said, "How can there be such an irresponsible man among the descendants of our Tang Family? Since Xiu and Wanying are a couple, they will definitely not be separated in the future. Besides, the children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Let them slowly develop first. If they feel that the time is ripe, this old man will personally go to the Mu Family to propose marriage and hold a wedding for them. Alright, dinner should be ready. Let's eat first. "
Propose marriage?
Hold a wedding?
Cold sweat flowed out of Tan Xiu's body. He looked at Mu Wanying's blushing face and bowing her head without saying anything. He felt very embarrassed inside if he didn't care about Mu Wanying's face. He really wanted to loudly tell everyone that they were a fake couple!
Dinner.
The meal was very sumptuous, but Tan Xiu didn't have any taste. On the contrary, Mu Wanying, who had become a distinguished guest of the family, ate a lot under everyone's care and care. Even Tang Ying, who was also at the dinner table, felt sour inside. She raised her head from time to time and rolled her eyes at Tan Xiu.
"It's none of my business. It's all your fault."
Tan Xiu occasionally glared back and suppressed his temper to finish dinner. Seeing that his grandmother still wanted to chat with Mu Wanying, he hurriedly excused that Mu Wanying still had something to do tonight and hurriedly left the Tang Family's ancestral residence with her.
"Phew …"
The moment they stepped out of the ancestral residence, Tan Xiu heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry!"
Mu Wanying lowered her head and said softly with a complicated expression.
Tan Xiu looked at her and secretly sighed inwardly. He simply couldn't bring himself to blame Mu Wanying. Moreover, it was not Mu Wanying's fault today. It was all Tang Ying's fault.
"Forget it. It's fine."
Tan Xiu waved his hand. After getting on the car, he drove and said, "It's late now. I'll send you back."
"Alright!"
Mu Wanying gently nodded.
Oriental Rose Garden, an upscale residential area in the Imperial Capital.
Following Mu Wanying's instructions, Tan Xiu parked the car in the underground garage. He didn't rush to talk, but opened the window, took out a cigarette and lit it up. After taking two deep puffs, he then said, "Wanying, my situation is very complicated. I was hurt because of a relationship issue, and I've never thought about starting a new relationship before the wound completely healed. It's a freak combination of factors that led to the current situation between us. I apologize if it affects your reputation. "
Mu Wanying was shocked. Although she had guessed that Tan Xiu had a relationship issue before, she didn't expect that he was really hurt. She couldn't figure out which blind woman had the heart to hurt such an outstanding man.
"Tan Xiu, I should be the one apologizing. If it weren't for me, today wouldn't have … "
Tan Xiu waved his hand to interrupt Mu Wanying and said, "It doesn't matter. We're fake lovers, after all, so it's understandable for you to call me that. Since they misunderstood me, then let them misunderstand me. In any case, I won't consider any relationship issue in the next few years. If you don't want to fall in love for the time being, then let's go back to normal. Don't let other people's misunderstandings affect our relationship. "
Mu Wanying was a bit disappointed, but she forced a smile and said, "All right."
Tan Xiu didn't notice Mu Wanying's expression and said, "Today's matter will definitely be spread to your family. If they ask about it, explain if you want to, and call me if you don't. I know that the news of our relationship will definitely affect your reputation in the future. Let's wait for a few years. If you still haven't found the man you like after a few years, then we'll make do and get married first. "
Mu Wanying stared blankly at Tan Xiu. After a long silence, she firmly said, "If you haven't married by then, I'll definitely marry you."
"What?"
Tan Xiu was stunned.
"I don't know who hurt you so deeply, but I'm willing to use my love for you to heal the wound in your heart," said Mu Wanying softly. "I believe I can do it."
"You …"
Tan Xiu was dumbfounded and tongue-tied.
Mu Wanying forced a smile and said, "I can't help it. I think I've fallen in love with you. Although I want to be reserved, I really want you to spill your heart first. But I'm afraid … I'm afraid I'll never be able to wait. You're too outstanding, and there are too many outstanding girls around you. As a matter of fact, I've already explained to Grandma today that we're just a fake couple. But she … "
Tan Xiu fell into silence.
Had it not been for Xue Qingcheng and his 10,000 years of experience in the Immortal World, he might have been attracted to Mu Wanying and fell deeply in love with her. But now, his heart was hurt, and he didn't dare and didn't want to throw his feelings too early. He might not have seriously thought about the relationship issue before, but now, he had to think about it.
But!
Just as he began to think about it, he felt a bit depressed. Not to mention Han Qingwu, who was Xue Qingcheng in his previous life, Ouyang Lulu, who desperately chased after him, and Kang Xia, who gave her body to him. He was somewhat at a loss. Now that Mu Wanying was added, Tan Xiu's heart was in a mess.
"Go back and rest early."
As the second cigarette burned out, Tan Xiu turned to look at Mu Wanying.
Mu Wanying hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you want to go up and sit? I live here alone! "
"No, I won't go up." Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "I want to go back to Star City tonight. There are some things in the Magnificent Tang Corporation that I need to deal with."
"Alright. Be careful on the road."
Mu Wanying's eyes turned dark and she nodded without a word.
