Zhao Long scratched his head, but he was also a little worried for Wang Hu.

Can that blockhead really act well?

Wang Hu listened to Qian Yan and escorted her to her doorstep. The two looked at each other.

After waiting at the door for a while, Wang Hu scratched his head.

"Then...then I'll pick you up tomorrow morning, and we'll go...for a walk in the park?"

Qian Yan listened to Wang Hu's words, a slight smile playing on her lips, and nodded gently.

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Qian Yan waved to Wang Hu and was about to turn around and go inside when she heard Wang Dawei's voice coming from inside.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely treat Qian Yan well from now on!"

"..."

Qian Yan and Wang Hu turned around at the same time, and Wang Hu's face darkened.

Xia Lan underestimated Wang Dawei's shamelessness; he had actually already arrived at the Qian family's house long ago.

"Let's go in."

The two exchanged a glance, and Wang Hu nodded before quickly walking to Qian Yan's side.

Qian Yan affectionately took Wang Hu's arm, and Wang Hu stiffened. Qian Yan patted him on the shoulder.

"Relax, you're too stiff."

"……Um."

Wang Hu tried to relax, and Qian Yan, seeing that he was no longer so stiff, then pulled him into the house.

"Dad, Mom, I'm home! Look who I ran into today..."

Qian Yan shouted excitedly; her voice arrived before she did.

Qian Feng looked in the direction of the sound, and Qian's mother and Wang Dawei stood up excitedly.

"Xiao Yan, look who's here..."

"Comrade Qian Yan..."

When they saw Qian Yan intimately linking arms with Wang Hu as they entered the house, the smiles on Qian's mother and Wang Dawei's faces instantly froze.

Wang Dawei's face instantly darkened, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes, before he resumed his smile.

Wang Hu did not miss the true emotions that Wang Dawei revealed in an instant, and looked at Wang Hu with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Uncle Qian, Aunt Qian, it's been so long! How are you doing?"

Wang Hu smiled respectfully at the two of them.

"Oh! Isn't this Xiao Wang?"

Qian's mother glanced at her daughter's hand linked with Wang Hu's, then quickly stepped forward and pulled her daughter away.

"Let me introduce you, this is Wang Hu, he used to be my daughter..."

Just as Qian's mother was about to reveal Wang Hu's identity, fearing that Wang Dawei would mind, Qian Yan chuckled and pulled her hand away from her mother's.

She walked up to Wang Hu, took his hand, and smiled happily.

"Mom, Wang Hu and I have actually been eyeing each other for a long time. This time we met again, I don't want to miss him again."

"I've already agreed to date him."

Qian Yan spoke first, announcing it to Qian Feng and his mother.

"What?"

"Comrade Qian Yan, your parents have agreed to my marriage proposal, and you are now my fiancée, Wang Dawei's fiancée..."

Wang Dawei smiled and looked at Qian Yan, while Qian Yan glanced at Wang Dawei.

"No, Comrade Wang Dawei, what kind of marriage proposal are you making? We just met and walked around today. I didn't agree to date you, did I?"

Qian Yan frowned, "Besides, I've already said that we're not a good match, so what's going on here?"

"Comrade Qian Yan, I know you may not know me well, but I really want to marry you. You don't need to ask this Comrade Wang Hu to put on an act just to reject me."

Wang Dawei pointed out Qian Yan's idea. Qian Feng and Qian's mother glanced at Wang Hu and Qian Yan and thought it was indeed possible that what Wang Dawei said was true.

"Yan'er, stop fooling around. Let Xiao Wang keep you company. Dawei has been really good to you; he's already told me everything..."

Qian's mother stood next to Wang Dawei and waved to Wang Hu.

"Xiao Wang, you too, why are you playing along with Yan'er's nonsense? I know what that girl is thinking. Dawei is a good person..."

Qian Yan sensed something was wrong and was about to say something when Wang Hu grabbed her hand and stepped forward.

“Aunt Qian, I was afraid of being too forward with Xiao Yan before, because she was going through a difficult time, but the more I spent with her, the more I felt sorry for her…”

“I didn’t dare to tell her, but she has always been in my heart. I’m not just fooling around with her.”

"I was the one who spoke to her first. I missed out on her once, and I don't want to miss out a second time."

Wang Hu's sincere gaze startled Qian's mother. Qian Yan looked at Wang Hu with moist eyes, too moved to know what to do.

Looking at Wang Hu and Qian Yan, Qian's mother couldn't tell if they were real or not; they seemed quite genuine.

After all, the eyes don't lie, and the seriousness in Wang Hu's eyes confused her.

Could these two really be a couple?

"Auntie, they just encountered that, it can't be real."

Seeing that Qian's mother's attitude had changed, Wang Dawei quickly said...

"Comrade Wang Dawei, why don't you take your things and go back first today? We can discuss this later."

As Qian's mother listened to Wang Dawei's words, she smiled and pushed the things he had just brought over in front of him.

Regardless of whether the relationship between his daughter and Wang Hu is real or not, Wang Dawei's actions were indeed a bit too hasty.

It doesn't feel genuine.

Furthermore, Wang Hu had lived with them for a period of time and protected Qian Yan for them. It's quite possible that, as he said, he had fallen in love with Yan'er back then.

Between Wang Dawei and Wang Hu, Qian's mother still trusted Wang Hu more.

"No, Auntie, didn't you already agree?"

Wang Dawei was dumbfounded. They had already made an agreement, so why was he going back on his word now?

"We're marrying off our daughter, not selling her. What, you want a one-off deal?"

Before Qian's mother could speak, Qian Feng, who had been sitting silently on the sofa, spoke indifferently, put down his teacup, and looked up at Wang Dawei.

Wang Dawei felt the oppressive aura emanating from the person in charge, which made his legs tremble slightly, and he didn't even dare to meet Qian Feng's eyes.

"I……"

"Don't leave me behind, hurry up and go!"

Qian Yan rolled her eyes at Wang Dawei, not daring to even look her father in the eye. That's how cowardly she is.

Seeing Wang Dawei like this, Qian's mother's original positive impression of him shattered. He couldn't even stand up to Qian Feng, and he was even worse than Yang Qing before.

Yang Qing still dared to look at Qian Feng!

"Well... I'll be going now, I'll come visit again in a couple of days."

Wang Dawei pursed his lips, picked up his belongings, and quickly fled.

Qian Yan watched his retreating figure and let out a soft snort.

"I knew he was unreliable!"

"Stop talking about him! Come and sit down! Tell me, what's going on here?"

Qian Feng glared at Qian Yan, wondering what exactly was going on.

Qian Yan explained everything that had happened to Qian Yan and her mother, but when it came to Wang Hu, Qian Yan lowered her head in embarrassment.

"That Wang Dawei actually said those things? Really! Good thing I refused!"

"So what's going on between you and Xiao Wang?"

Seeing Qian Yan like this, Qian's mother and Qian Feng exchanged a glance.

"Xiao Wang, we thank you on Qian Yan's behalf. We can only guess that Xia Lan must have figured something out, which is why she sent you to save Yan'er..."
