Chapter 9: Would you consider marrying me? (1/2)



He Chi didn't respond.

Seeing the tension between mother and son, Jiang Yining said, "Teacher Lin, I know Teacher Zhang's daughter. She has a boyfriend."

Lin Shu was surprised, "Then why did Teacher Zhang say she was single?"

"Her boyfriend is from another province, and Teacher Zhang wants her to find a local boyfriend. She hasn't yet decided to tell her family."

Lin Shu understood, "Don't worry, I won't mention it to Teacher Zhang."

She sighed and looked at He Chi, "Then I don't have anyone suitable to introduce to you. When you get old and become single, don't blame me."

Teacher He comforted her, "Marriage cannot be forced, maybe your destiny will come soon."

Lin Shu gave him a reproachful look. "You're an old physics teacher, how can you say such nonsense like Teacher Zhang?"

He Chi saw that this hurdle for today was over. He checked the time and then looked at Jiang Yining. "I'll take you and He Xiaohui back."

Jiang Yining hesitated for only a second and said to Lin Shu, "Teacher Lin, I'll go back first. I'll come back another day."

Lin Shu nodded, "Okay." She reminded He Chi, "Drive slowly and be careful."

He Chi hummed.

He stood up and called out "He Xiaohui".

He Xiaohui slowly opened his eyes after hearing his voice, and followed He Chi calmly.

After hearing the door close, Lin Shu said to He Yuwen, "Look at your son, he just left and took my Yining with him. I finally got to talk to Yining."

After that, she added, "It would be better if He Chi took her home. It's so hot, so she doesn't have to go through the trouble of taking the bus."

Outside the door, Jiang Yining lowered her eyes. She and He Chi walked down the stairs one after another, while He Xiaohui walked beside her.

Jiang Yining was thinking about the fact that He Chi was also on a blind date, and she didn't notice that after going down the stairs, there was a long distance between her and He Chi, one on each side.

It was clearly an unintentional act, but in He Chi's opinion, Jiang Yining was deliberately keeping a distance from him.

Remembering that Jiang Yining had stopped smiling after seeing him, He Chi could no longer hold back his doubts. He stopped and called out in a low voice, "Jiang Yining."

Jiang Yining paused, turned her head and looked at He Chi blankly, only then realizing the distance between them.

She smiled at He Chi sheepishly and explained, "I was just thinking about something."

He Chi walked forward, lowered his eyes, and locked his gaze on Jiang Yining, "Why are you so afraid of me?"

Jiang Yining: “…”

"I don't."

The person in front of him pursed her red lips and lowered her eyelashes. He could not see the emotions in Jiang Yining's eyes and could not guess what she was thinking at the moment.

The outfit Jiang Yining is wearing today looks great. This style of clothing matches her gentle temperament.

Of course, the dress she wore when I saw her last time at the bar was also beautiful, but I could tell she was feeling unnatural at the time.

Jiang Yining didn't dare to look He Chi in the eye, so she just stared at the tip of her shoes. But He Chi was right in front of her, and she couldn't ignore him even if she wanted to.

He Chi's tall figure pressed down to block the hot sun for her.

In the afternoon, the outside was like an airtight steamer, and the stuffy air enveloped the two of them.

She didn't tell the truth, and He Chi couldn't do anything to Jiang Yining. "Let's go to the car first."

He Chi walked outside, Jiang Yining tugged at the edge of her skirt and followed him obediently.

It was still the black Land Rover that He Chi drove last time. He got in the car first and turned on the air conditioner.

Jiang Yining arrived right after her. She carried He Xiaohui to the back seat. Thinking of the question He Chi had asked her just now, she suddenly didn't want to sit in the passenger seat anymore.

She walked over slowly, took a deep breath, and then opened the car door.

As soon as he got in the car, He Chi looked at Jiang Yining.

Jiang Yining noticed He Chi's gaze and looked up to meet He Chi's deep black eyes.

The space was so small, and the unique scent of He Chi lingered in her nose, causing Jiang Yining's heart to beat faster.

The phone in her bag vibrated. Jiang Yining reached for the phone as if relieved. She said to He Chi, "I'll take a call first."

Hearing this, He Chi hummed, "You answer it." Then he asked, "Do you need me to go down?"
