No ti to waste, Chen Xuan drove over to the flower shop.
From afar, he saw Yang Kaize helping Chen Yi arrange the flower shelf, with Chen Yi assisting nearby.
The two were chatting and laughing, appearing to get along quite well.
"Hey there, busy at work?" Chen Xuan walked into the flower shop with a smile.
"Brother, why are you here?" Chen Yi smiled and walked up to him.
Chen Xuan affectionately ruffled his sister's hair, "Ca to see you, aren't I welco? I can leave now if you want."
"Oh brother, you're teasing again." Chen Yi pouted and playfully glared at him.
Chen Xuan chuckled, then looked at Yang Kaize.
"Hello, Brother Chen." Yang Kaize greeted him with a smile.
"Mm."
Chen Xuan walked up to Yang Kaize, "The entrance exams are coming up, how's your preparation going?"
"With Teacher Su's guidance, I'm feeling pretty confident now," Yang Kaize said firmly.
"That's great." Chen Xuan smiled slightly, "You two carry on, I'll go upstairs to find Linlang."
He waved his hand and turned to go upstairs.
The two of them didn't think too much about it and continued tidying up the flower shelf.
Upstairs, Su Linlang was organizing her teaching plans.
Seeing him co up, she imdiately stopped what she was doing and stood up with a smile, "You're here."
"Linlang, it seems that lately, Yang Kaize and Chen Yi are getting along very well," Chen Xuan said with a smile.
Su Linlang nodded with a smile, "Indeed, the two are practically inseparable."
"Have you noticed that Chen Yi is more cheerful than before? She always has a smile on her face."
Hmm.
Chen Xuan nodded slightly; he noticed that too, his sister truly seed happier.
Only with a good mood would you smile so naturally.
"I think it's about ti for them to take things a step further."
"What do you think about helping them with wedding plans?"
Chen Xuan looked at Su Linlang, seeking her opinion.
Su Linlang nodded with a smile, "I have no objections, and I would love to see them together."
"It's just Yang Kaize... he's like a block of wood, so bad at expressing his feelings."
"I've secretly observed several tis. Chen Yi likes him too and has hinted at it a few tis, but it's like he doesn't get it."
Chen Xuan just smiled, "It's not that he doesn't understand, nor is he dull; he probably has his own concerns."
"Let's go out for a al later, and I'll find an opportunity to chat with Yang Kaize alone."
"Sure, sounds good," Su Linlang nodded.
In the evening, Chen Xuan specifically organized a dinner, and the four of them went to a hotel for a al.
While eating, Chen Xuan didn't bring up the subject but just had casual chats.
After the al, Chen Xuan gave Su Linlang a look.
Understanding his hint, Su Linlang turned to Chen Yi, "Co with to the restroom."
"Okay." Without thinking too much, Chen Yi got up and followed Su Linlang.
In the small private room, only Chen Xuan and Yang Kaize were left.
"Xiao Yang, how have you been getting along with my sister?" Chen Xuan asked with a smile.
"Pretty well," Yang Kaize replied with a smile.
"What's so good about it?" Chen Xuan continued with a smile, "How about making her your wife? Do you think it's suitable?"
Yang Kaize blushed instantly, "Brother Chen, you're giving too much credit. How could it be unsuitable?"
"Being with Chen Yi would be like reaching above my station!"
Chen Xuan waved his hand with a smile, "Don't say that, there's no such thing as reaching above. As long as you two are in love, that's the best outco."
"Since that's the case, shouldn't you do sothing about it? When do you plan to propose to my sister?"
Ah?
Yang Kaize's eyes widened in surprise, not expecting Chen Xuan to say that suddenly.
He awkwardly chuckled, "Brother Chen, I... I haven't thought about that yet, can I wait a bit?"
Chen Xuan pretended to be angry, "What do you an by that? Just want to toy with my sister's feelings without giving her commitnt, is that it?"
"No, no!" Yang Kaize waved his hands, "I'm honored that you trust enough to let be with your sister, and I'm truly grateful."
"I've set my heart on Chen Yi and will certainly commit to her. It's just... I'm busy with entrance exams, and I don't have the ability to support myself yet. How can I give Chen Yi happiness?"
"Brother Chen, here's what I'm thinking. After I've achieved success, I'll marry Chen Yi and offer her a stable life. It's a responsibility I must bear as a man, or rather, as a husband."
Ha ha ha...
Chen Xuan laughed heartily, "I knew you were thinking this way, cautious to the point of inaction."
"Xiao Yang, a man can't be without pride, but don't put too much importance on it either. Especially when it cos to matters of love, putting too much weight on pride can beco a restraint."
"As long as you both love each other, why care about anything else?"
Yang Kaize sighed softly, "Brother Chen, what you say is true, but the problem is... how can I propose to Chen Yi now?"
"And how can I afford to hold a wedding and give her a ho? My parents are just ordinary rural people without much savings. We could barely scrape together a modest wedding, far from luxurious."
"And buying a house? It's out of the question! I don't want to be a leech living off my parents! I want to wait until I earn money to lessen the burden on them before talking about this matter."
After speaking, Yang Kaize looked at Chen Xuan, speaking with sincerity.
