Hearing his aunt say this, he was completely stunned and refused to believe it.
Seeing this, Zhou Shuhua explained.
"So that's how it is. But for some reason, the marriage partner changed in a daze. She came by train about a week ago. That night, after we had all gone to sleep, Shen Huaichuan suddenly came and knocked on the door, asking your uncle to submit the marriage application. That's when we found out about it."
The train from a week ago?
Wasn't that the time he met her?
At that time, he originally intended to go up and talk to her.
He had a strong urge to ask her directly if she would marry him.
Even though they were almost there, they just couldn't take that one step...

It was raining heavily outside, so she thought of making some hot food. She stirred some dough and made some tomato and dumpling soup.
In addition, steamed spare ribs with black bean sauce and enoki mushrooms with garlic sauce were also prepared in the pot.
I was worried that the food would get cold when I returned from Shen Huaichuan, so I kept it warm over a low flame.
But no matter how long they waited, Shen Huaichuan didn't return, and the rain outside grew heavier and heavier.
