Hong Baobao was actually a little nervous when she was about to speak.
After all, she knew perfectly well that although she was dating Jing Pei and her family knew about it, apart from Hong Yuan, none of her family members really liked Jing Pei.
To be precise, they didn't want her to be with Jing Pei.
However, even if her family doesn't like it, she won't give up easily. Once she's made up her mind about Jing Pei, unless he cheats on her or does something else she won't forgive, she will never separate from him.
After Hong Baobao finished saying what she had to say, the other family members looked at her, waiting to see what she was going to say next.
Hong Baobao cleared her throat and then said, "It's like this, I plan to marry Peipei next year."
Ever since Hong Baobao started calling Jing Pei "Peipei," she has habitually called Jing Pei "Peipei."
Even now, she still habitually calls Jing Pei "Peipei".
Hong Baobao really likes calling Jing Pei by that name because it's a name only she uses.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Jing Pei's family members don't really call her Pei Pei.
Even his grandfather didn't call Jingpei "Peipei," but often called him "Jingpei the brat."
Suddenly, Hong Baobao thought of her grandfather, and she felt a little dazed.
Actually, after she became a mother, the first person who was kind to her was her grandfather.
She hadn't seen her grandfather for a long time and missed him terribly.
Well, now is not the time to think about that. She should deal with the matter at hand first.
After Hong Baobao finished saying that she would be marrying Jing Pei next year, the others looked at her with surprise and disbelief.
Jing Pei, upon hearing what Hong Baobao had said, also looked at Hong Baobao with a surprised expression.
Jing Pei was also surprised that Hong Baobao would tell everyone so directly that they were getting married next year.
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
At first, everyone was probably too surprised, so they all looked at Hong Baobao and didn't look at Jing Pei.
However, this situation did not last long before Jing Pei attracted the attention of others.
Hong Yuan was already quite satisfied with Jing Pei, her prospective son-in-law, so she was happy when she heard Hong Baobao say that she would be marrying Jing Pei next year.
Although Hong Yuan was quite reluctant to part with her daughter, she thought that she couldn't be so selfish as to keep her daughter by her side for the rest of her life.
She could also see that Hong Baobao really liked Jing Pei. Since Baobao wanted to marry Jing Pei, then let them get married.
Wasn't this the daughter's own choice?
Since this is her daughter's own choice, all she, as her mother, can do is unconditionally support her.
Moreover, Hong Yuan originally liked Jing Pei quite a bit. She thought that Jing Pei and Hong Baobao looked very well-matched and pleasing to the eye.
After a long silence, no one spoke. Finally, Hong Yuan broke the silence first, saying, "Baby, since you've made up your mind, let's pick a day to meet with your in-laws and discuss your matter properly."
In Hong Yuan's eyes, the Jing family had already become in-laws.
Hearing his wife address the Jing family members, Shen Ke's face instantly turned even uglier.
Originally, Shen Ke's expression had already turned rather unpleasant after hearing Hong Baobao suddenly say that she was going to marry Jing Pei next year. Now, when he heard Hong Yuan refer to the Jing family as in-laws, his expression turned even more unpleasant.
Shen Ke dared not show any expression to Hong Yuan, so his eyes could only shoot towards Jing Pei like knives, his gaze wishing he could tear Jing Pei to pieces.
Jing Pei naturally noticed Shen Ke's gaze, but she didn't care. Instead, she acted like a good boy, trying her best to minimize her presence.
Unexpectedly, when Shen Ke saw Jing Pei acting like such a well-behaved child, his anger only intensified.
Shen Ke glared at Jing Pei, snorted coldly, and said, "I do not agree to this marriage."
After Shen Ke finished speaking, he immediately felt the anger that had been building up in his chest dissipate.
When Jing Pei heard Shen Ke say that he did not agree to his marriage with Hong Baobao, he was immediately shocked. Then, Jing Pei looked at Hong Baobao.
Hong Baobao, as if by telepathy, looked at Jing Pei. After their eyes met, she gave Jing Pei a look, telling him not to worry.
Jing Pei received Hong Baobao's gaze. He was initially a little worried, but now he was no longer worried at all.
Yes, he should believe in Hong Baobao.
Jing Pei then entrusted this matter to Hong Baobao, believing that she would be able to resolve it.
"Dad, why don't you agree to my marriage with Jingpei?" Hong Baobao asked, looking at Shen Ke.
When Shen Ke heard Hong Baobao's question, she really couldn't give a proper answer for a moment.
It has to be said that Hong Baobao's question really stumped Shen Ke.
