Su Mianmian took a deep breath. She thought that since it had come to this, she could only talk things out.
She stood with her chest folded, looking at Shen Yuan with a firm gaze, "Why are you looking for me? You're not really here to relax, are you?"
There was a hint of playfulness in her tone, trying to break the slightly awkward atmosphere.
Shen Yuandao looked at her, and a sense of nervousness surged in his heart.
He knew that what he was about to say might change their relationship, but he still mustered up the courage, "Mian... Mianmian, I... I didn't run away on purpose." His voice trembled a little.
Su Mianmian raised her eyebrows, a playful smile playing on her lips, "Oh? So you did it on purpose?"
She deliberately led the topic in another direction, trying to make Shen Yuandao more nervous.
"No... no!" Shen Yuandao hurriedly waved his hands to deny it, fearing that Su Mianmian would misunderstand him.
His fingers were clenched tightly together, and beads of sweat had already seeped out of his palms.
"Mianmian, I...I like you."
Shen Yuandao finally mustered up the courage to say this.
Although his voice was a little trembling, it was full of determination and sincerity.
He paused, as if waiting for Su Mianmian's reaction.
Su Mianmian's heart seemed to be surrounded by a warm current, and she was extremely excited at the moment.
This is such a pleasant surprise.
She took a deep breath and prepared to give her answer.
"Me too..." However, she was interrupted by Shen Yuandao before she could finish her words.
"Don't talk yet, just listen to me."
Shen Yuandao looked into her eyes with a serious expression, "I ran this afternoon because I felt that what I said to you at that time was a bit abrupt and not serious enough."
"Confessing my feelings to you is very important to me. I like you, so I don't want you to feel that I look down on you."
"I'm 18 years old. My grandparents are still alive, and I have parents and an older brother. My family is kind and there's no mother-in-law or daughter-in-law relationship. As for sisters-in-law, I don't have one yet, but if that day comes, I will stand by you unconditionally."
"I know you're still young, but it's okay. I can wait. I want to take a place with you. When you come of age, I can legitimately become your other half and spend the rest of your life with you."
Having said that, Shen Yuandao stretched out his hand.
"So, Comrade Su Mianmian, are you willing to date me? With the goal of getting married?"
Su Mianmian looked at his serious expression and determined eyes, her heart filled with emotion and warmth.
She was moved by him, perhaps she was attracted by his appearance from the first time she saw him.
She smiled and nodded, then held his hand back, "I like you too, and I'm willing to be with you, Comrade Shen Yuandao."
Her voice was soft and sweet, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, creating ripples.
After hearing her reply, Shen Yuandao was stunned for a moment.
His eyes widened as if he couldn't believe his ears.
He looked at her, and that familiar face seemed even more charming at this moment.
He breathed a long sigh of relief, "Thank you, Mianmian."
His voice trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with joy.
He was a little incoherent and didn't know what to say to express his feelings at the moment.
He just held her hand tightly and said, "Can I hug you?"
Su Mianmian nodded shyly, lowering her eyes slightly to avoid Shen Yuandao's burning gaze.
Shen Yuandao was about to hug the person he loved in his arms when he was interrupted by a roar in the distance.
"Let me go!"
The two were startled by the sudden sound and immediately separated.
Su Mianmian's heartbeat instantly accelerated. She looked nervously towards the source of the sound, only to see her father running towards her in a hurry, pulling the two little ones.
For a moment, her face turned even redder.
"dad."
"Uncle Su."
Su Xinzhang glanced at the two young men, snorted, pointed at Shen Yuandao with sharp eyes and said, "Come with me."
Seeing this, Su Mianmian couldn't help but feel a little worried.
What if Dad takes his anger out on Shen Yuandao?
Su Xinzhang looked at his daughter who was now disloyal and felt helpless.
He glared at Su Mianmian and said through gritted teeth, "Don't worry, your dad doesn't eat people."
Although he said so, the look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yuandao revealed some severity and warning.
Su Mianmian smiled awkwardly at her father's words.
Su Mianmian sighed softly as she watched the two people walking away.
Shen Zhiqing, I can’t help you anymore.
Su Mianmian glanced at the two little guys standing at her feet and squatted down.
"An An, A Yan, who brought you here? When did you arrive?"
Su Yanshu came up to Su Mianmian and said, "Dad said my sister was kidnapped, so he brought us here. We've been here for a long, long time."
He Youan thought for a moment and said, "Sister Mianmian, we came here because my cousin said that his family is kind."
When Su Mianmian thought about her father hearing what they had just said, she instantly wanted to die.
The other side
Su Xinzhang walked in front, his steps steady and powerful, but his heart was surging.
When he thought of the scene he had just seen, a nameless fire surged in his heart.
This brat actually dared to kidnap his precious daughter right under his nose. He is so bold!
"My family is kind and there is no mother-in-law-in-law relationship. Oh, and comrade Su Mianmian, are you willing to date me? With the purpose of getting married." Su Xinzhang deliberately slowed down his pace and said what Shen Yuandao had just said in a sarcastic tone.
When Shen Yuandao heard these words, his cheeks stiffened and he felt inexplicably ashamed, especially when they came from the mouth of his future father-in-law, which made his face somewhat hot.
As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Yuandao with his peripheral vision, only to see that the brat's cheeks were stiff, his expression awkward and unnatural. Su Xinzhang was secretly proud of himself, letting you secretly kidnap my daughter.
He understood that Su Xinzhang was testing him. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then answered solemnly:
"Uncle, what I just said to Mianmian is the truth. If one day I do something to let Mianmian down, I will personally kneel before you and Aunt Wen and apologize. If that doesn't satisfy me, you can break my legs."
After saying that, he raised his hand and made a swearing gesture, which made Su Xinzhang's eyelids twitch.
When Su Xinzhang heard what he said, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He didn't expect Shen Yuandao to say such serious words, which made him feel a little bit amused and helpless.
"Humph, I break your legs? My little girl will cry to death then? I won't listen to your stupid idea."
When Shen Yuandao heard this, he became even more anxious.
He quickly explained: "Uncle, what I said is true. I will not let Mianmian suffer any injustice."
Su Xinzhang looked at Shen Yuandao's anxious look and felt a little amused.
He didn't expect that this brat, who was usually very smart, would be so stupid at this time.
