Looking at Cheng Ran's sad expression when talking about her, Jiujiu couldn't help but reach out and pat Cheng Ran's arm that was tense because of anger.
Jiujiu looked at Cheng Ran's face that was distorted because of pain and said softly, "Brother, it's not as painful for me to marry Li Shujun as you think."
Jiujiu leaned on Cheng Ran and whispered, "I'm a girl of the Cheng family. Even if I don't marry Li Shujun, I will always marry someone else. Among the childes who are well-matched with us, Li Shujun is the best. And those who are not well-matched with us will say that they marry me for love. Do you believe it?"
Although the Cheng family was not second to none in the capital, it was among the best. From childhood to adulthood, there were many people who wanted to marry Jiujiu to reach the sky in one step. If she really married them, it would be better to marry Li Shujun in the first place.
Cheng Ran also knew this truth, but he still felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Cheng Ran asked Jiujiu, "Are you happy?"
He didn't want to know the truth, nor did he want to know that the best husband for Jiujiu was Li Shujun. He just wanted to know whether his sister was happy or not as an elder brother.
"Brother, don't you know whether I'm happy or not?" Jiujiu glanced at Cheng Ran, "When you wake up, you either go out for a trip or go out to buy goods. How can you not be happy? But brother, I've been married for several months. When are you going to marry Sister Xia 'an?"
Jiujiu frowned, "Sister Xia 'an is so good. Don't wait until she is taken away by someone else."
Hearing Jiujiu mention his girlfriend, Cheng Ran's face was slightly red, but soon he pinched Jiujiu's cheek, "Every day, you only know how to tease me. It's still early for me and Xia 'an, so we're not in a hurry."
"You're 30 years old, is it still early?" Jiujiu frowned, "I'm 25 years old this year and I'm already married. Sister Xia 'an is 26 years old. She didn't say anything, but you really think she's not in a hurry?"
Jiujiu sat up straight and looked into Cheng Ran's eyes, asking, "Brother, are you still thinking about that Xiao Qinghe?"
When Cheng Ran was young, he had a crush on a girl. Jiujiu knew that. At this moment, he was still unwilling to marry Gu after being with Gu Xia 'an for so many years...... Thinking of what Li Shujun said said, Jiujiu suspected that Cheng Ran and Xiao Qinghe and Xiao Qinghe had been together for a long time.
Hearing Jiujiu say Xiao Qinghe's name, even the calm Cheng Ran choked on her saliva.
......
. "Cheng Ran choked for a while before coming back to her senses. Her cheeks flushed shyly because of the continuous coughing. She looked at Jiujiu with bright eyes and questioned," Who told you this name? "
Jiujiu glared at Cheng Ran, "Why do you care where I know this name? Just tell me, do you really not want to marry Sister Xia 'an because of this woman?"
Cheng Ran shook her head, "No, I liked Xiao Qinghe when I was in school. I've been with Gu Xia 'an for so many years. If I couldn't forget her, I would have broken up with her long ago. I just feel a little scared."
"Scared of what?" Jiujiu raised her eyebrows in surprise. She was a little surprised that Cheng Ran said she was scared.
If she was scared, she would have been scared long ago. They had been together for so long. Why did she only start to be scared after such a long time?
Cheng Ran knew that if she didn't make it clear to Jiujiu, Jiujiu would definitely keep asking, so she didn't hide it anymore. She directly told her all the things in her heart.
"I've been with Gu Xia 'an for so long. I definitely like her, but our relationship is always lukewarm. I like her, but I don't have a special feeling. I'm a little scared. After we get married, our life will also be lukewarm like now. I'm a little scared just thinking about it."
Cheng Ran's worry made Jiujiu stunned. She didn't expect that Cheng Ran didn't want to get married because of this. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Have you told Sister Xia 'an your thoughts?"
Cheng Ran shook her head, "No, she's been with me for so long. I definitely have to be responsible. I just want to think about it again. After I figure it out, I'll propose to her."
Although Cheng Ran and Li Shujun were both noble young masters in the traditional sense, they didn't have the temperament of a young master at all.
Once they were together, they would treat each other wholeheartedly. Even if Cheng Ran obviously didn't like her, he would still choose to get married because of his responsibility.
Jiujiu liked Cheng Ran's sense of responsibility very much. However, his way of doing things was tantamount to not liking Gu Xia 'an very much. This way of doing things was the embodiment of his own responsibility, but for Gu Xia' an, it was tantamount to an expression of irresponsibility.
Gu Xia 'an liked Cheng Ran. Otherwise, she wouldn't have waited until now when she was a little girl. Needless to say, she was very willing to enter the hall of marriage with Cheng Ran. However, if Cheng Ran married her because of his responsibility rather than because he liked her, she would probably not be very willing.
Thinking of what Li Shujun said about Gu Xia 'an breaking up with Cheng Ran, Jiujiu thought that Gu Xia' an probably noticed Cheng Ran's feelings. After thinking about it again and again, she chose to break up with Cheng Ran.
After all, even if Cheng Ran married her out of responsibility, his heart wasn't with her. What was the point?
Gu Xia 'an was a smart girl. She knew how to choose.
Not to mention that Xiao Qinghe was a disgusting woman. Even if Xiao Qinghe was extremely good, Jiujiu wasn't willing to let Cheng Ran give up on such a good girl like Gu Xia 'an. Jiujiu was prepared to think of other ways to matchmake the two of them.
Since she knew what she needed to know today, Jiujiu didn't continue to ask. She told Cheng Ran about the interesting things they encountered when they were playing outside for a while before they went to sleep separately.
The next day, Jiujiu asked the driver to send her directly to the entrance of Li Shuwan's school.
Li Shuwan was studying at the Capital University. She was in her third year this year.
Although her family was very well-off, Li Shuwan didn't have the squeamishness of a young lady from a wealthy family. She lived in a six-person room in the school. There was no air-conditioning in the summer, but she didn't complain at all. Instead, she found ways to comfort her family.
Jiujiu liked the Li Shuwan in her memory very much. Last night, before going to bed, she chatted with Li Shuwan on WeChat. She knew that Li Shuwan didn't have classes in the afternoon, so she came to the school to look for Li Shuwan.
Li Shuwan first picked up Jiujiu at the school entrance. The two of them held hands and strolled around the school as they chatted.
The temperature of the early spring was just right. The warm wind blew on their bodies, making them feel indescribably comfortable.
Jiujiu narrowed her eyes. Looking at Li Shuwan's energetic appearance, she smiled and said, "The season has changed recently. I want to buy some clothes. You know that my friends are all abroad recently. Xiao Wan, can you accompany me to buy clothes?"
Although Jiujiu liked to shop, she wasn't a naive girl who would buy whatever she saw. She had a high sense of beauty. It was fine even if she was alone. However, when it came to shopping, two people were better than one.
