The three people in the living room all turned their gazes toward the two main characters as they came down.

Chu Jiang also pulled Xi Ran's hand and sat down beside her.

"Dad! Mom! We've decided, we'll get our marriage certificate tomorrow."

Yu Xuehui looked at Chu Jiangyi and Xi Ran with some worry. Ever since Sun Qing caused that incident, Yu Xuehui was still a little apprehensive.

After all, the Chen family serves as a cautionary tale.

They had no problem getting their marriage certificate, but they hesitated about holding a wedding, since now wasn't a good time.

She didn't want such a lovely girl like Xi Ran to get hurt again, and it was also for the sake of the Chu Group.

At this critical juncture, the Chu Group cannot afford to make any mistakes.

Yu Xuehui understands better than anyone how damaging rumors can be to a person.

She has learned a lot.

So she and her husband discussed it and decided that holding the wedding after graduation was the wisest choice. It would only be a little over two years, not a long time, and it would pass in the blink of an eye.

It's better for everyone if we wait until the storm has passed and those rumors can no longer harm Xi Ran and the Chu Group before making it public.

The worst thing is that Xi Ran, that silly girl, is stubborn and gets stuck on one point, thinking that the Chu family doesn't value her.

Now is not a good time. She is not sure if Sun Qing's family will cause any trouble to avenge Sun Qing. There are too many uncertainties involved. She does not want to gamble, nor does she dare to gamble.

She would not give up either her son's lifelong happiness or the career she and Wentao had built up over half their lives.

It's just a postponement of the wedding, nothing serious. It's not like we're not having it at all, it's just postponed for a little over two years.

Once the rumors and gossip subside, nothing will be difficult, and it will be the best arrangement for everyone.

Chu Wentao, sitting to the side, was also very nervous. However, as the head of the family, both his son's marriage and the Chu Group were very important to him.

There are many things I can't ask the girl directly, for fear of hurting her feelings.

After all, they were young and impetuous, with a strong sense of self-esteem.

My son is a stubborn person; once he sets his mind on someone, he won't easily let go.

The couple was very satisfied with Xi Ran. Although her family background wasn't great, her character was quite good.

Now is really not a good time to hold a wedding. Chen Jingsong's experience has made him think more deeply about the matter. Two years is the perfect time to hold a wedding.

Xi Ran had been observing Uncle Chu and Aunt Yu's expressions, and knew what they were worried about. So, before Chu Jiang could speak, she spoke first.

"We've agreed to get our marriage certificate first, and then have the wedding after graduation."

The couple were overjoyed upon hearing Xi Ran's words.

Yu Xuehui smiled so broadly that her eyes disappeared from her grin.

He stepped forward and took Xi Ran's hand to comfort her, "Girl! I know Jiang Yi must have said something to you that made you hesitant. Thank you!"

"To tell you the truth, Auntie, the Chu Group is currently working on its IPO. This is a crucial time for the Chu Group. I know I've wronged you, but... those things Sun Qing revealed about your family a while ago..."

Xi Ran suddenly realized, so that's how it is. She had thought that Uncle Chu and Aunt Yu were dissatisfied with her, but she had been overthinking it. She didn't expect there to be this reason behind it.

Indeed, the scandals exposed by Sun Qing are scandals, and it is certainly not a good thing for the heir of the Chu Group to marry a woman with so many scandals.

"Auntie! I understand! Actually, it doesn't matter whether there's a wedding or not, as long as I can be by Chu Jiangyi's side, that's enough."

"Good boy! Thank you. You are a good boy who considers the big picture. My son has great taste. He found me such a thoughtful daughter-in-law. Although his taste was not so good at first, and he was blind to fall for someone like Sun Qing, his taste has improved rapidly since then."

"What's so great about someone like Sun Qing? She's blind as a bat, what a waste of her good eyes."

Chu Jiang was also furious. "Mom! Didn't we agree that this scandal shouldn't be brought up again? Can't we just let this go? Don't I have any dignity? I don't know why I liked someone like Sun Qing back then. Now my taste has completely returned to normal. Can you please stop bringing up my shortcomings every other day? At least give me some face. Xi Ran is still here."

Yu Xuehui belatedly patted her mouth, "Ranran! Don't blame your aunt, I didn't mean to bring up Sun Qing to annoy you... it's just... it's just..."

Yu Xuehui glanced at her daughter, who was sitting quietly playing on her phone, and pointed at Chu Jiangning.

"I brought that up to teach Chu Jiangning a lesson, to teach her to be more discerning in the future, yes, yes, that's it."

Yu Xuehui praised herself in her heart for being so clever.

Chu Jiangyi's lips twitched. "Mom! Do you know what you're saying?"

"Ha ha……"

Yu Xuehui scratched her head. "Actually, I don't know what I'm saying... Just pretend you didn't hear me."

Chu Jiangning was chatting with Xi Yan, who was far away in Beijing, when she was suddenly called out by her mother and slowly raised her head.

"Mom! What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly, I was chatting with Xi Yan..."

Yu Xuehui frowned. "When did you become so familiar with Xi Yan? I didn't know that."

"We wouldn't say we're that close. We just chat occasionally, like ordinary friends..."

Yu Xuehui nodded. Her daughter was still young; it was probably just her being petty.

There are so many good girls in Beijing. Even if Xi Yan wanted to find a girlfriend, he'd definitely have the advantage of proximity and would start with his classmates. How could that be...?

She's being petty...

If the two of them really had a problem, Chu Jiangning wouldn't have answered so frankly.

What does a child know? She's really seeing threats everywhere.
