After knowing that Jiujiu might not like him, Li Chen was prepared to tie Jiujiu down with marriage.
Now that Jiujiu was unwilling to be tied down by him, it meant that Jiujiu's change of heart was not small.
Li Chen said to Jiujiu, "I promised you that I wouldn't rush you to have children. Don't you believe me?"
"I don't believe you," Jiujiu looked at Li Chen in surprise, as if she did not understand why he would ask her this.
"You're my boyfriend. How can I not believe you?
Also, we've been together for so many years. I can't believe anyone but you. "
"Since you believe me, why aren't you willing to marry me?" Jiujiu said to him with a sincere expression. Li Chen was still skeptical when he heard that Jiujiu believed him.
"I believe you, but I don't believe your mother." Jiujiu frowned slightly, and a small bump appeared between her brows. She said to Li Chen, "You're her son, so you know your mother's personality best.
Based on my conversation with your mother last time, I can tell that she's not a very easy person to get along with. Also, I don't believe that your mother's living environment will make her agree to my request.
Also, there are so many reports about the tension between mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law in society. I'm a little worried that when we get married, your mother will insist that I have children with you. If we don't agree, your mother will cry and throw a tantrum, instigating a divorce between us.
I'm married to you, and we're going to be together for the rest of our lives, but your mother has been with you for almost thirty years.
I believe that our relationship is stronger than gold, but your mother is your mother after all. You can't ignore your mother's years of relationship just because of our relationship, right? "
Jiujiu's words were logical, and Li Chen could not refute her.
Li Chen was silent for a moment, then he looked at Jiujiu and said, "So, according to you, we won't get married in the future?"
"We might have to get married eventually.
If we don't get married for a long time, not only will your mother be unhappy, but my parents will also be unhappy. "
Jiujiu said that the two of them would not get married for the time being, and then she said that they would definitely get married. Li Chen could not help but be confused. What did Jiujiu mean?
Did she want to get married or not?
"Then, when do you plan to get married?"
"We just graduated less than a year, and our careers are on the rise now. There will definitely be more room for appreciation in the future. So, I think we should discuss marriage after our careers have stabilized in two years. we'll discuss marriage. What do you think?"
Jiujiu's words sounded reasonable, but didn't that mean that she didn't want to get married?
Moreover, these words sounded very familiar. After thinking about it carefully, wasn't it the same excuse that he gave Gu Ya when she said that she wanted to get married, but he didn't want to get married?
She knew, she knew that her mother's words, Jiu.....
Her words meant that she did not want to get married to him now.
Li Chen did not feel anything when he said those words to Jiu Ya. But when he was the one being said those words, he felt very upset.
Li Chen knew that he had double standards, but humans were creatures with double standards. So, not only did he have double standards, but he also felt very upset that Jiujiu did not want to get married to him.
Even if a person didn't like another person, when he was about to lose this person, his heart would always be reluctant to do so.
Not to mention, Li Chen actually liked Jiujiu in his heart.
So, after understanding the meaning of Jiujiu's words and knowing that Jiujiu did not want to get married to him, Li Chen felt as if he had swallowed a piece of thousand-year-old ice.
Li Chen looked into Jiujiu's eyes.
He wanted to see traces of himself in Jiujiu's eyes.
But unfortunately, Jiujiu's eyes were clear, but there was no trace of his existence. Li Chen instantly understood that Jiujiu did not like him anymore.
Li Chen's lips moved. He wanted to ask Jiujiu when it happened.
When did she start to dislike him?
But, when the words reached his mouth, he could not say a word.
Because once he said those words, the two of them would really be finished.
Just like when he wanted to break up with Jiu Ya, he kept saying that he did not want to get married for the time being. He kept saying perfunctory words. In fact, he wanted to drag this matter out.
Either he would drag it out until he was really sick of it and broke up with Jiu Ya completely, or he would wait until Jiu Ya lost her patience and took the initiative to break up with him.
Now, it was obvious that Jiujiu had the same intention. She wanted to drag this matter out until he took the initiative to break up with her.
The more he understood what this meant, the more unbearable it was for him to be treated like this.
Li Chen took a deep breath. After a long time, he said softly, "Alright, I'll wait for you."
Now, he had no other choice but to wait.
Because he knew better than anyone that if he continued to push her, the two of them would not have any chance.
Jiujiu smiled at Li Chen and went upstairs to leave.
Looking at Jiujiu's back, Li Chen's mouth was filled with bitterness.
He finally understood what it meant to reap what you sow.
Now, he was reaping what he sowed.
The next day, when Jiujiu arrived at the company, she felt that the atmosphere in the company was much more solemn than usual. Even the most cheerful people had grave expressions on their faces.
It seemed that a big misfortune had happened to the company.
Since the company was backed by a well-known listed company, the company would not collapse due to poor management. So, Jiujiu felt that it was the same as before. There was an 80% chance that someone difficult to deal with had come to the company.
Otherwise, the people in the company would not have such expressions.
As expected.
Jiujiu had just sat down in her seat when the secretary, who was usually as proud as a white swan, walked up to Jiujiu with a rare smile on her face. She smiled and said, "Guya, the general manager wants you to go to his office."
Jiujiu smiled and replied, "Okay, I'll be right there."
After sorting out the things on hand, Jiujiu walked to the general manager's office with a professional smile on her face.
She pushed open the door.
The general manager, who usually smiled at everyone, had an even more flattering smile on his face today. Especially his small eyes, there were no gaps in his smile.
When he saw Jiujiu enter, the general manager immediately smiled and walked over to Jiujiu. He pointed at the man sitting at the head of the table and said, "Guya, this is our general manager, Chen Yanli."
After introducing Chen Yanli to Jiujiu, the general manager immediately said to Chen Yanli, "General Manager, this is the Guya I mentioned to you before."
Chen Yanli forced himself to look up and glance at Jiujiu. He nodded his chin as if he was doing charity and let out a single syllable from his nose.
