Su Jie thought that maybe the fire had burned all the heat stored in her body, or maybe God was touched by Cheng Yuan's spirit of perseverance and finally allowed her to enjoy love like a normal person. The company had a holiday three days before the Spring Festival. Cheng Yuan begged Su Jie to go home with her to see her parents, but Su Jie firmly refused. More than a month ago, she went on a blind date. Now, she was going home with her boyfriend only a few days later. Not to mention what her family would think, how could those aunts who were eager to introduce her to a boyfriend feel?
Cheng Yuan was very disappointed. He was afraid that a long delay would bring trouble. However, what Su Jie said was not unreasonable. He had to respect her opinion, so he went back to his parents gloomily.
The prospective son-in-law, Xiao Linzi, couldn't miss this great opportunity to show off. He bought a lot of gifts and drove to visit his father-in-law.
Nowadays, Xiao Linzi looked mature and steady. He was humorous and listened to Su Miaomiao's every word. Coupled with the good family conditions, he quickly passed the test of his father-in-law, mother-in-law, grandparents, and distant relatives and neighbors. He was praised and established an important position in the Su family. The family was happy and harmonious. However, when Su Jie came home, it was not so harmonious.
"Su Jie, you'll be thirty after the Spring Festival, right? Look at your classmates, they've already given birth to a second child."
This was said by her aunt.
"Look at you, the Liu Xian you introduced last time is so good. Why did you refuse him?"
This was said by her aunt.
"Let me tell you, take advantage of the fact that the people who are over the Spring Festival are back, you should take a good look at them. My sister's husband's nephew is not bad. I'll arrange for you to meet him another day …"
This warm-hearted person was a neighbor across the street.
Looking at his silent but obviously unhappy parents, Su Jie didn't dare to refuse them directly. She could only smile stiffly. After two days, she was about to break down.
Xiao Linzi lived a comfortable life. Su Miaomiao had a lot of relatives. Relatives treated Su Miaomiao every day. Everyone showed great respect and enthusiasm for this rich son-in-law, which made Xiao Linzi feel a sense of existence that he hadn't felt for thirty years. He felt so good about himself that he showed off to his friends every day. In less than three days, Fu Lin, Du Yi, and other bad friends had enough of his showing off and blacklisted him. Xiao Linzi felt very depressed because he didn't have anyone to share his joy with. Originally, he wanted Cheng Yuan to share his joy. However, due to the complicated relationship between Cheng Yuan and Su Jie, Cheng Yuan's wound probably hadn't fully healed. Xiao Linzi didn't want to stimulate him, so he didn't mention this topic. However, Cheng Yuan kept asking for information about Su Jie. Xiao Linzi didn't understand what he wanted to do. However, he was unhappy for a day and wanted Cheng Yuan to be unhappy with him.
"Why do you keep asking about Su Jie? Do you like her and want to chase her? But I have to warn you in advance, they all like my style. " Xiao Linzi deliberately praised himself so that Cheng Yuan would retreat. He didn't want Cheng Yuan to overshadow him, and he didn't want to be like an elder and a junior.
"It seems that you're very popular there."
"Of course. You can't find another young man like me, who is handsome, considerate, loyal, and self-reliant. These days, they all take me as a role model and call on other children to learn from me …"
Xiao Linzi finally found someone to listen to his glorious deeds. He repeated the warm hospitality he received in the past few days without exaggerating. Cheng Yuan didn't show any impatience from beginning to end.
"I guess Su Miaomiao will have an uncle soon."
At the end, Xiao Linzi couldn't help sighing.
Cheng Yuan was shocked and thought, "Did Su Jie tell her parents about us?" He couldn't hide his joy and asked, "What happened? Did Su Jie say she's getting married?"
"She doesn't even have a boyfriend. Who is she going to marry?! It's because of this that all the relatives and friends in the family are so enthusiastic about introducing boyfriends to her. There's a blind date tomorrow. I think Su Jie might be impulsive and choose one of them to marry … Hey, hey, this person, why did you hang up the phone when we were just talking! "Xiao Linzi was depressed.
Early the next morning, an uninvited guest came to the Su family. At that time, Su Jie took Su Miaomiao and Xiao Linzi to visit their relatives. Cheng Yuan was wearing a custom-made suit. He was as handsome as the male lead in the popular TV series. Especially, he brought a house full of gifts. He was polite and respectful. As soon as he entered the house, he called them brother, sister-in-law, uncle, and aunt, which surprised and confused the whole family.
"Excuse me, you are …"
The sister-in-law asked first.
"My name is Cheng Yuan. I'm Su Jie's boyfriend."
Cheng Yuan said this with a smile. It was as if a powerful bomb had been dropped in the house. The whole family was stunned at first and then looked at each other. The sister-in-law was the first to come back to her senses. She quickly asked Cheng Yuan to sit down. The sister-in-law quickly took out the Longjing tea from the Old Master's collection and made him a cup of tea. Old Master Su was surprised, angry, and happy. He was surprised that the girl had a boyfriend again. He was angry that she didn't tell her family about such an important thing. He was happy that this son-in-law who came to his door looked like a good man. He was even better than his grandson-in-law.
The family surrounded Cheng Yuan and began to ask him questions. The questions were nothing more than "how old are you this year", "what do you do", "where are your parents", "how many brothers and sisters do you have" … Cheng Yuan answered them one by one seriously.
After asking what they wanted to know, the whole family was more satisfied with this prospective son-in-law. At this time, the sister-in-law suddenly remembered and screamed, "Today, my cousin said she was going to introduce her nephew to Xiao Jie."
"Keep your voice down." The second brother glared at his wife, but they all heard it. Naturally, Cheng Yuan heard it too. For a moment, the atmosphere in the house was a little strange and awkward.
"I'll call them to come back now."
The sister-in-law dialed Su Miaomiao's number. "Mom, what's the matter? We'll be at my cousin's house soon …"
"Don't go. Come back quickly."
"Why?" Su Miaomiao was confused. She didn't understand why her mother's tone was so anxious.
"Your uncle is here."
Su Miaomiao hung up the phone and was a little confused. Xiao Linzi asked, "What's wrong? What happened at home?"
"My mom said," Su Miaomiao looked at him and then at Su Jie. "My uncle is here."
"Uncle?!" Xiao Linzi was also confused. "Which uncle?"
"Strictly speaking, I only have one uncle …"
Looking at Su Miaomiao's expression, Su Jie suddenly had a bad feeling.
The three of them turned back the way they came. Before they entered the house, they could feel the warm and joyful atmosphere. When they entered the house and saw Cheng Yuan sitting in the middle of the family talking and laughing, Su Jie was stunned. Xiao Linzi was confused.
"Cheng Yuan!?"
"Why are you here?"
Su Jie and Xiao Linzi asked almost at the same time. Cheng Yuan stood up and smiled at Su Jie. Su Jie didn't know what to feel, but she felt a little uncomfortable that he didn't even say anything about such an important thing. However, before she could get close to Cheng Yuan, the old man stood up and ordered with a straight face, "Come with me."
Su Jie gave Cheng Yuan a warning look and obediently followed her father to the study.
"Explain to me, what on earth is going on?"
Looking at his beloved daughter, Grandpa Su couldn't help but be angry when he thought of how he and the whole family had been worried about her marriage. She had such an outstanding boyfriend until today.
"Dad, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I haven't found a good time."
Looking at her father's angry face, Su Jie explained guiltily.
"Then when do you think a good time is, when your cousin introduces her nephew to you? Xiao Jie, don't you think your father hasn't lost enough face … "
Grandpa Su scolded her, and Su Jie couldn't even say a word to refute. Every time the old man scolded her, she scolded Cheng Yuan in her heart. About half an hour later, Su Miaomiao went to pull Su Jie out. She acted like a spoiled child and finally, the old man's anger was mostly gone.
When no one was paying attention, Cheng Yuan took Su Jie's hand and explained weakly, "I'm sorry, I didn't know it would affect you so much."
Su Jie snorted and asked, "Why did you come? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Do you know how nervous I was?"
Cheng Yuan took her hand and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. But you promised to marry me, why did you go on a blind date with another man behind my back?"
"Who told you that I went on a blind date with another man?" Su Jie felt that her character was being questioned, and she glared at him angrily.
"Your family said that your cousin wanted to introduce her nephew to you. Su Jie, did you go on a date with him if I didn't come today? "
Cheng Yuan's face was full of grievance and dissatisfaction. Su Jie looked at the family, who were busy welcoming their future son-in-law, and sighed helplessly, "They didn't tell me that they were going to go on a blind date. I thought they were just going to have a simple meal."
"So I came at the right time. Hurry up and tell your relatives that you're already taken. Don't let them come and attack you again."
"Don't worry, I don't need to tell them, they will all know today."
As expected, after lunch, relatives and friends came to visit in an endless stream. As the central figure of the event, Cheng Yuan was surrounded by all kinds of questions. He was a little overwhelmed, and he felt that he was not so nervous even when he went to the head office to give a report.
Su Jie, Su Miaomiao, and Xiao Linzi sat together and watched the bustling scene. Xiao Linzi suddenly snorted and said, "These questions are not technical at all. I answered them easily that day."
"Really?" Su Miaomiao turned to look at him and said, "That day, who was the one who told me that you were not so nervous even when you took the college entrance examination?"
Xiao Linzi's true colors were exposed, and he felt a little embarrassed. He coughed a few times and said, "Boring, I'll go over there and see if there's anything I can help with."
Su Jie and Su Miaomiao looked at each other and burst out laughing.
From that day on, Cheng Yuan was invited by all the families and was treated as a distinguished guest. Xiao Linzi was a little unhappy. Originally, he was the one who was surrounded by everyone, but the Su family probably thought that he was a cooked duck that could not fly away, so the whole family revolved around Cheng Yuan. That was not all. When he thought about how he and Cheng Yuan were the same age, but later on, he would be promoted to be his uncle. He was so depressed that he almost vomited blood. He hated himself for not being smart enough to try to matchmake them.
During the New Year, Cheng Yuan had proposed to Su Jie in front of everyone while everyone was present. Su Jie had wanted to be a bit bashful at first, but Elder Su had shot her a glance and scared her into agreeing immediately. Su Miaomiao and Xiao Linzi's wedding was set in June. Elder Su thought that as an aunt, she could not fall behind her niece, so he wanted Su Jie and Cheng Yuan to get married as soon as possible. Her brother and sister-in-law immediately took out the old almanac at home and calculated that there would be an auspicious day in April after the New Year. The weather was also warm, so it was a good time to get married. It was already February, so there were only two months left. Time was very tight. Cheng Yuan immediately called his parents and told them that he was at his future father-in-law's house to discuss the wedding. Cheng Yuan's parents were shocked. Although they had countless questions, they immediately set off. Three years ago, they thought that their son was going to get married, but later they found out that it was an empty joy. These years, the two of them missed their daughter-in-law and grandson very much, but they could not put too much pressure on their son, so they had been holding it in. They did not expect that their son would suddenly announce that he had a girlfriend and was going to get married.
The two of them arrived with sincere gifts. When they saw Su Jie, they were a little confused. They looked at each other and thought to themselves, "Isn't this the girl who stayed in the hospital when our son was in trouble but didn't even enter the ward?" Why did they suddenly come together? Su Jie looked at them and felt a little awkward, but there was no way to explain what had happened to her, so she did not say much. She only treated them politely and warmly.
The parents of both sides met formally and reached an agreement. An engagement banquet was set, and the wedding was set.
After the New Year, Su Jie also handed in her resignation. Whether she would start a business with Cheng Yuan in the future or find another way out, she could not choose to work and live so far away from her family. After the handover, she left the company and went home with Cheng Yuan, who came to pick her up. Then, they took wedding photos and prepared for the wedding.
In the blink of an eye, it was April, and the wedding was held as scheduled. The wedding was held in a seaside hotel. The beach was decorated with flowers, and everything was perfect except for a small interlude.
When the father held his daughter's hand and walked to the groom, an orange flame suddenly jumped out of the bride's veil. Because there were many candles set up at the scene, everyone thought that one of the candles had burst out and hit the bride's head. At the critical moment, Cheng Yuan gave the wedding planner a look and quickly pulled Su Jie into the blue sea. At the same time, they heard the planner say into the walkie-talkie, "Execute plan B." The sea immediately boiled, and after a while, a corridor of flowers and a floating stage appeared. The well-trained emcee was hoisted onto the floating stage and calmly and passionately presided over the wedding according to the predetermined plan.
Later, such accidents happened occasionally, but Cheng Yuan and Su Jie completely treated it as a supplement to their ordinary lives. However, people who had been to their house would be extremely curious about the ubiquitous faucet and the extraordinarily large swimming pool outside with a dining table and a bed.
But no matter how much they speculated and asked, the two of them would not tell them the real answer.
