Chapter 65: Speaking Frankly

"I think you've figured it out too." Lu Yujing didn't intend to beat around the bush.

"I do like Yi Yi. I want to date her with the intention of getting married, and I'm ready to spend my life with her."

"I don't know what concerns you and your family have, but please believe me, since I have chosen Yi Yi, I will always stand by her side and will not allow anyone to bully her."

"If you have any concerns about my family, there is absolutely no need to do so, because my grandparents, parents, and grandparents are all very open-minded people."

"They never required their future granddaughters-in-law or daughters-in-law to be ladies from wealthy families or daughters-in-law from wealthy families..."

"Political Commissar, my Yi Yi already has a girlfriend." Jian Yiwei mustered up the courage to interrupt Lu Yujing.

Never asking doesn’t mean there is no request.

He knew a little about the Lu family's situation.

This included the incident where Old Lady Lu chased Lu Yujing with a pile of photos of ladies from wealthy families and rich girls to pick on him.

As the only male grandson of the Lu family's generation, Mr. and Mrs. Lu had high hopes for him.

His future is also destined to be extraordinary.

How can such extraordinary people live an ordinary life with their Yi Yi?!

"Jian Yiwei!" Lu Yujing spoke in a deep voice.

"Here!" Jian Yiwei stood up and stood at attention.

"Do you dare to swear on the epaulettes on your shoulders for what you just said?" Lu Yujing's voice was serious and his expression was cold.

Jian Yiwei turned his head to look at the epaulettes on his shoulders, then lowered his head and said nothing.

"Jian Yiwei, I know you really love Yi Yi. I asked you to come here just to have a good chat with you. If you have any concerns, or if your family has any concerns, you can tell me. We can work together to find a solution instead of just avoiding it."

"You've been with me for so long, you should know my personality. I'm not a frivolous person. I like Yi Yi, and I'm serious about it. I really want to spend my life with Yi Yi."

"Jian Yiwei, when the suspect goes to court, the judge will state the crimes he has committed. You can't sentence me to death without saying anything, right?!" Lu Yujing let out a bitter smile.

Other girls and young ladies all hope to marry into a wealthy family, but for them, this is not the case.

"Political Commissar, our Jian family is just an ordinary working class. We...the gap between our two families is too big, it's not suitable." Jian Yiwei lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"Just because of this?" Lu Yujing said helplessly.

"Isn't Mrs. Lu already looking for a wife for you?" Jian Yiwei gritted his teeth and said what was on his mind.

He originally didn't want to say it, but he had to have a reason.

That's the reason.

While his family was looking for a daughter of a rich family or a lady from a noble family, he was talking about how he wanted to spend his life with his Yi Yi.

They are ordinary people, but they also know etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame.

You don't have to climb this high branch.

"I have to explain this. My old lady gave me a stack of photos to choose from, but I never looked at any of them." Lu Yujing said hurriedly.

"You didn't tell Yi Yi about this, did you?"

Jian Yiwei shook his head.

I thought: [It’s too late!]

"Don't tell her about this." Lu Yujing pushed the teacup in front of Jian Yiwei.

The girl didn't think much of him to begin with. After knowing this, how could she still have a good impression of him?!

"Is this an order?" Jian Yiwei asked.

"No, please." Lu Yujing denied it immediately, speaking in a rare humble tone.

"Political Commissar, it's actually useless for you to tell me these things. The most important thing is to see what my Yi Yi thinks." Jian Yiwei expressed his attitude directly.

Relationships must be voluntary on the part of both parties, and the decision of one party alone does not count.

And from what he observed, his Yi Yi didn't seem to have much interest in the man in front of him.

Lu Yujing: “…”

How could he not know this?!

"I didn't ask you to come here today to help me do anything..."

Jian Yiwei pursed his lips and said nothing.

Lu Yujing still keenly caught the suspicion that flashed across his eyes.

If it were any other day, if anyone dared to question him like this, he would have told him why the flowers were so red.

But now...

There was nothing he could do except endure it.

He didn't even dare to look at him.

Lu Yujing took a deep breath. "Yiyi is still young and doesn't have a clear understanding of the future. I hope you won't instill too much of your personal ideas into her."

[Especially the unfriendly remarks towards him.] These words rolled around in Lu Yujing's throat for a few times, but he finally swallowed them back down with his tea.

"My Yi Yi is indeed still young..." Jian Yiwei muttered softly.

Lu Yujing's fist suddenly hardened.

Why didn't this bastard mention that the little girl was still young when he was looking for someone to touch her?!

But it's too small for him! ?

"I can wait."

"Yi Yi can't cook." Jian Yiwei said again.

"I will learn."

Before Jian Yiwei could say anything else, Lu Yujing quickly added, "If all else fails, we still have Auntie and Yunlai's cook."

At the end, he did not forget to declare, "My aunt's cooking is as good as Yunlai's chef."

"Ring, ring, ring..."

At this moment, the phone on the coffee table rang.

Lu Yujing picked it up quickly.

Before he could speak, Mrs. Lu's excited voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Jingjing, I heard from your mother that you have a partner?"

Perhaps because they were so close, Jian Yiwei heard every word that Mrs. Lu said.

"Not yet, but I will try my best..." Lu Yujing admitted readily.

"Not yet?" Mrs. Lu on the other end of the phone sounded obviously disappointed.

"I will try my best." Lu Yujing said again.

"How old is that girl? Where is she from? What do her parents do? How many brothers and sisters does she have?" Old Mrs. Lu asked questions one after another.

"She is seventeen years old and lives in South City. Her father is a worker and she has an older sister, but her sister was brought here by her stepmother." Lu Yujing had no intention of hiding anything.

His little girl needs no other embellishment.

"Only seventeen?" Lu Yujing said a lot, but Old Lady Lu only paid attention to this.

Seventeen...

She would have to wait another three years, no, four years before she could hold her great-grandson.

When Mrs. Lu thought about having to wait another 1,460 days, she felt terrible.

"Jingjing, seventeen, isn't that a little too young? You are already twenty-three. By the time she is twenty, you will be twenty-six..." Old Mrs. Lu spoke tentatively.

"Grandma, she is the only one in my life." Lu Yujing said in a firm tone.

"What do you mean by 'her'? Did the girl agree to you? Lu Yujing, I'm telling you, if you dare to do anything wrong, I'll skin you alive." Old Master Lu's furious voice came from the other end of the line.

Judging from what he said, he must have been hiding nearby and eavesdropping for a long time.

"Lu Zhan, what nonsense are you talking about!?" Then came the sound of old lady Lu jumping up and down.

"Spoiling a child is like killing him!"

"Have you ever spoiled my Jingjing? You sent a child so young to the army..."

Finally, it was the voice of Mr. Lu admitting his mistake and apologizing.
