"Even if you don’t do anything, living together will greatly affect Xiangxiang’s reputation once the news gets out, so you must pay attention to these details, understand?"
Cheng Jinyun sighed helplessly, "Auntie, it’s actually not necessary..."
"Are you listening?" Auntie glared at Cheng Jinyun, the pressure from an elder made Cheng Jinyun not dare to argue back, repeatedly promising his aunt that he would return after taking Lin Xiang ho.
As soon as Lin Xiang and Cheng Jinyun left, Auntie’s focus shifted to Cheng An.
"Ah Yun is a year younger than you, and his marriage to Xiangxiang is basically settled now, it’s just a matter of choosing a good day for the wedding."
"But you, you’re the older brother, yet you still haven’t found soone. Cheng An, are you even capable of this?"
Cheng An: How did things take an unexpected turn?
However, Lin Xiang guessed it right!
His mom is pushing for marriage, and even verbal attacks!
"Mom, you know, I’m completely focused on work right now, I really don’t have the ti or energy to find a partner. Anyway, you treat Ah Yun like your own son, why not push Ah Yun and Lin Xiang to have a child, then you’d be a grandma sooner?"
After saying this, Cheng An kept apologizing to Lin Xiang and Cheng Jinyun in his heart.
Better them than , once they’re married, having a kid will happen sooner or later!
Auntie hit Cheng An with a fist, "It’s not easy for Xiangxiang to get into Huaqing University, she’s just a freshman now, with a bright future ahead of her, and you’re already pushing her to have kids? What kind of person does this?"
"Your Cheng family bloodline isn’t so important that soone must inherit it, as long as Xiangxiang and Ah Yun are happy together, that’s enough. Let the child matter happen naturally, no rush."
"As for you, be careful that if you keep delaying, as you get older, no one will want to be with you."
"If no one wants to be with , then I won’t bother," Cheng An said, "I’ve never thought marriage is sothing one must do. Mom, even though I’m not young anymore, I really don’t want to talk about this right now."
Auntie sighed helplessly, "Whatever you say, even if you end up alone forever, it doesn’t matter, by the ti you’re old and need care, I’ll have been gone, so there’s nothing to worry about."
"Cough cough..." Uncle had just taken a sip of tea and now sprayed it all out, he disagreed, "It’s the New Year, don’t say such unlucky things."
"As for the children’s happiness, let them work it out themselves."
Once out of the military compound, the streets were almost empty. Cheng Jinyun braved his nerves and finally held Lin Xiang’s hand openly.
The warmth from his palm spread inch by inch to her heart, and Lin Xiang felt her cheeks burning red.
"What’s your thought on the wedding date?" Cheng Jinyun suddenly brought up, it left Lin Xiang stunned.
They just started dating, and already talking about marriage? Isn’t this a bit too fast?
Seeing Lin Xiang didn’t reply, Cheng Jinyun continued, "I’ve checked, Huaqing University doesn’t have rules against students getting married, plus we’re of age, we can register for marriage."
"Regarding the wedding, if you want one, I’ll give you a grand wedding, if not, we can just register, then invite friends and family to announce our relationship, and we can have the wedding after you graduate."
The wedding isn’t the priority, what’s important is getting the marriage certificate first.
Cheng Jinyun feared that while he’s on assignnts, soone might see Lin Xiang’s excellence and introduce her to soone else.
Though he knew Lin Xiang’s heart was with him, his possessiveness didn’t want that to happen.
With Jinyun’s plans laid out, Lin Xiang was unsure what to say.
"I don’t want to get married yet."
"Why?" asked Cheng Jinyun, "I’m not questioning you, I just hope you can give an answer. If it’s my fault, I can change it. If it’s a real-life issue, I can tackle it with you."
If you love soone, why can’t you get married?
Have they not known each other well enough?
Lin Xiang just let go, "Once married, both families will likely push for having kids. But I still feel like a kid myself. I an, my career goals are high, and I wouldn’t consider having kids for at least three years after graduating."
She hasn’t even thought about having kids.
But if she marries Cheng Jinyun, these real problems would have to be faced.
Suddenly, dating felt tedious.
Marriage is even more tedious.
Cheng Jinyun smiled helplessly, "If that’s the issue, you needn’t worry."
He squeezed Lin Xiang’s hand, "I respect all your decisions, including whether and when to have kids. As for Mom and Auntie’s side, leave it to , I’ll ensure you’re not bothered."
"Xiangxiang, I’ve told you long ago, I’ll strive to be your support and safe haven, not only guarding your career but also in every aspect of life."
"I’m not one for sweet words, but I hope you know, no matter what happens, I’ll be in front of you, I won’t let you face any difficult situations, understand?"
It wasn’t sweet talk, but the words were more comforting than sweet talk.
Coming from Cheng Jinyun, Lin Xiang eased her worries.
"Let’s wait till tomorrow, after Auntie ets my mom."
In conversation, they arrived at Lin Family’s door.
The door was closed, but through the courtyard wall, the lights of the main hall could be seen.
"Are you really not going in with ?"
"Of course, I’m going in."
He must tell Mrs. Lin about the proposal himself.
"What? Your uncle and aunt are coming to our house for a proposal tomorrow? Isn’t this a bit too fast?"
Cheng Jinyun said, "Mom, I only have a two-week holiday this ti, and a few days have slipped by, with not many left. That’s why Auntie wants to finalize things with Xiangxiang before I go on a mission again."
"It’s just a proposal, as for the wedding date, it’s up to you and Xiangxiang to decide together."
"I... I haven’t t your uncle and aunt, can I get along with them?"
The next day, Lin Family.
Auntie and Mrs. Lin hit it off imdiately.
Although their social status was sowhat different, upon seeing Auntie, Mrs. Lin was not as nervous as she imagined, and enjoyed talking with Auntie.
