Chapter 712 Major Events in Life
"Mu Han, it's time to eat. Take off your scarf."
At the dinner table, Uncle Gu looked at Li Muhan, who was sitting opposite him and suddenly wearing a scarf, and said.
"Um... this... Dad, I'm a little cold."
"It's only July and the weather is hot. Why are you cold?" Aunt Jiang also looked at Li Muhan suspiciously.
So Li Muhan had to slowly take off his scarf.
Fortunately, Xia Yue did not use the power of moonlight this time, and his wounds have basically healed.
Only a small red mark remained on the neck.
"What's the red thing on your neck..." Uncle Gu was about to ask when Aunt Jiang started coughing immediately.
“Ahem!”
Uncle Gu scratched his head, not quite understanding what Aunt Jiang meant, so Aunt Jiang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Eat, eat. You're the only one who talks too much."
At the dinner table, Aunt Jiang kept picking up food for Xia Yue, and Xia Yue accepted all of it.
She was so happy while eating.
At the beginning, you may pay attention to your image.
Later I just let go completely.
But Aunt Jiang and Uncle Gu were both very happy to see it.
"Why are you so thin, kid? Look at your arms and legs. You must have not eaten well when you were little. Eat more. I will make you fat in the future."
"......" Xia Yue looked back at Li Muhan while eating. "If I get fat...will you dislike it?"
"He dares!" Uncle Gu said sternly.
"Mu Han, don't use the distorted aesthetic standards of modern people to judge Xia Yue! Girls should be fair and plump to be healthy! Don't you usually let her eat properly?"
Li Muhan was so scared that he almost choked after hearing this.
"How dare I, Dad, she eats a lot..."
"He doesn't let me eat at night..." Xia Yue muttered softly.
Aunt Jiang put down her chopsticks immediately.
"Mu Han, what's wrong with you... Can you not eat tonight? Look how hungry you made the little girl."
"No, the night I'm talking about is..."
"Still talking back." Uncle Gu snorted, then looked at Xia Yue: "If this brat doesn't let you eat again, tell us and your uncle and aunt will take care of it for you."
Xia Yue nodded suddenly, then turned slightly to look at Li Muhan, inadvertently revealing a little devilish expression.
What the hell.
Li Muhan took a breath of cold air.
When did she become so smart? Did she learn to bully others?
Besides, I never stopped her from eating at night. Her parents might understand that it was dinner, but every time she suddenly wanted to eat pork elbow in the middle of the night, at one or two o'clock in the morning, she asked me to buy it for her.
Who can let her eat this?
But Li Muhan also knew at this moment that refuting would only put himself in a more unfavorable situation.
So he smiled and nodded, then raised his hand to hold Xia Yue's head, leaned close to her face, lowered his voice and spoke through gritted teeth.
"Eat... I will definitely let you eat, you little devil, you'll see if I don't deal with you tonight."
"...It's still unclear who will take care of whom."
......
Just like that, after eating and drinking, Li Muhan stood up and said solemnly to the two elders sitting opposite him.
"Dad, Mom, I have something to tell you."
"What's going on?"
As if they sensed the firmness in Li Muhan's eyes and tone, the old couple sat up straight.
"I know this is a bit sudden, but... I hope you can support me."
Then Li Muhan grabbed the hand of Xia Yue, who was lying on the chair with her belly bulging and a satisfied look on her face.
"Dad, Mom, I... want to marry Xia Yue."
......
After dinner, Li Muhan and Xia Yue sat on the sofa in the living room, and in front of them were the two elders who had carried two chairs and sat over.
"Mu Han, this is a big deal. Marriage is different from dating. Have you thought it through?"
Mother Jiang said.
"Mom, I've thought it through. If there's someone I can be with until the end of my life, it must be Xia Yue, not anyone else."
Li Muhan looked at the two elders seriously and said, "You know what? I never thought I could have such a happy life. The happiest moment in my life was the day you took me home from the orphanage and told me that from today on, this is my home."
"From that day on, I realized that I wasn't some unwanted little monster. I also had parents. I'm grateful from the bottom of my heart for those happy times, and for you and my sister who gave me that time."
"So, I want to bring the girl I love back here, back to where it all began. I want to share everything I have with her, and the love she brings me, with you, Mom and Dad... I love Xia Yue, and I hope to make her a part of our family."
Jiang's mother's tears had already fallen.
When did this boy who was not good at speaking become so good at speaking?
Uncle Gu also nodded with satisfaction. The child has indeed grown up.
Even Xia Yue looked at Li Muhan with tears in her eyes.
Li Muhan leaned close to Xia Yue's ear and whispered, "Why are you crying? This is the line written by Cen Lin. I've recited it to you several times."
"...I don't know. Anyway, I just want to cry. What do you care?"
Uncle Gu looked at Xia Yue and said.
"But have you consulted Xia Yue's family? Marriage is not just a matter between the two of you, it's also a matter between two families."
Li Muhan and Xia Yue were both stunned.
Yeah, I don't think I've told Xia Grace and Elias about this yet...
"They won't object..." Xia Yue said in a low voice.
"Silly child, this won't do. You still have to talk to your parents first and get their consent."
Mother Jiang held Xia Yue's hand and said.
This really stumped the two of them.
Even Xia Grace is elusive, let alone Elias.
"It's like this, Dad, Mom, Xia Yue is not Chinese. You should be able to see that her parents are both abroad, so it's not very convenient."
Li Muhan quickly made amends.
"Is that so... Then a phone call would be fine. At least we should let our parents know about this important matter."
Helpless, Li Muhan and Xia Yue looked at each other and said, "How about... you contact your sister?"
Xia Yue looked very hesitant. She didn't want to have any interaction with Xia Luer, but she considered the future.
She nodded anyway, then took out her cell phone and called Xia Luer.
Wow, it turns out you even saved her phone number.
Li Muhan complained in his heart.
The call was connected soon.
"Isn't this my dear sister? What happened? Did someone beat you up? Or did you get dumped? Do you want me to comfort you?"
Xia Yue really wanted to hang up the phone or scold her.
But Li Muhan’s parents just looked at him like that.
She had to speak as softly as possible.
"...Charluer, I, I want to ask you for a favor."
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then the voice became a little cold.
[Are you really in trouble? Who bullied you?]
"No... I'm not in trouble, I just... I want to ask you for a favor, okay?"
[...Where are you?]
"kindness?"
[I don't know what happened to you. If you can't talk right now, it's okay. Just tell me where you are and I'll come right over.]
For some reason, Xia Yue suddenly felt... a little relieved. It turned out that Xia Luer was really worried about her?
"I'm really fine, Xia Luer. I'm in Li Muhan's hometown now. I'm with his parents."
【Huh? Then why are you looking for me? 】
"I...was planning to marry Li Muhan, so I wanted to tell my mother, but I couldn't contact her."
【......】
There was silence again on the other end of the phone, and after a while, Xia Luer's voice became relaxed again.
[Oh~ I was just saying~ Why would you call me? Oh~ You really need my help with something~ Then why don’t you just call me sister~]
Xia Yue suddenly clenched her cell phone, and a hint of anger appeared between her brows.
Naturally, the two elders couldn't hear what was said on the phone.
But Li Muhan heard it clearly.
He quickly held Xia Yue's hand: "The overall situation is more important, the overall situation is more important."
[Brother~ I heard your voice~ Why are you becoming my brother-in-law without telling me~]
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me whether you can help or not."
Xia Yue's voice was a little stunned.
[Call me sister]
Xia Yue's hands trembled. Finally, she bit her lip, lowered her head and said, "...Sister."
[Ah!!! Be good!! Speak louder! You're not in the mood!]
"Don't push your luck, Xia Luer." Li Muhan quickly added, "Please help..."
"Alright, for my brother's sake~ But, Shallia, aren't you wearing the ruby your mother gave you? Can't you just contact her yourself?"
ah?
Li Muhan and Xia Yue were both stunned.
Then they suddenly remembered that last time at the beach, Xia Grace did leave a ruby necklace for Xia Yue. This time when they came to meet Li Muhan's parents, Xia Yue specially found it and hung it around her neck.
It turns out this thing can be used to contact her!
[Hello? Hello? Why aren't you talking, Shallia? My dear sister~ Oh~ Call me sister again...]
Xia Yue stood up and hung up the phone. The two elders looked at her in confusion.
"......Um, sorry, actually...my mom is nearby right now. I, I'll go pick her up, okay?"
This scared the two elders.
"But, but Mu Han just said that you, your parents are..."
"Oh! I'm out of information! Actually, Xia Yue's mother is a historian! She loves to go to places with rich historical heritage!"
That's too far-fetched.
Li Muhan complained to himself in his heart.
But the two elders were honest people. After looking at each other, they smiled and said, "Since your mother is here, let's quickly invite her to our house. However, we have already finished our meal, so..."
"It's okay." Xia Yue bowed to the two elders.
"I, my mother said she has already eaten. I, I'm going out now to pick her up. Please wait."
With that, Xia Yue ran out of the house.
"......this."
Uncle Gu and Aunt Jiang were a little unable to keep up with the pace.
"Haha...you are really a decisive girl." Aunt Jiang could only smile awkwardly.
