Chapter 312: Like a Proposal
"No need for that. You're too enthusiastic. She's timid. I'm worried you'll scare her away."
Hearing the man's refusal, Jiang You became even more excited.
"If I remember correctly, there shouldn't be anyone I know who is timid."
"Except for An Mi who is introverted, everyone else is quite open." She turned her head to look at An Mi, but she didn't doubt anything.
“…”
An Mi felt that she couldn't let her go on.
"Sister Jiang You, my stomach hurts a little, let's go quickly."
She didn't even want the necklace anymore, she pulled Jiang You and wanted to walk out.
"Wait a minute, I'll pay, it's quick."
Jiang You did not let the gossip affect her determination to pamper her sister.
It took her less than a minute to finish it.
"Here, take it, your New Year's gift."
She took the gift bag from the salesgirl and handed it to An Mi.
An Mi also took it obediently and said thank you.
Jiang You looked at Wan Muqi and said, "Brother Muqi, let's go first. Let's get together after the New Year and I'll ask again."
An Mi also said: "Lawyer Wan, Teacher Qin, goodbye."
After the two of them left, Qin Mi finally spoke: "Are you still in the mood to go pick out gifts with me?"
Seeing him like this, Qin Mi felt that his soul was about to be taken away by An Mi, and he probably didn't have the heart to accompany her for a walk.
Qin Mi then said, "Muqi, honestly, the age gap between you and An Mi is too big. Do you think you two can continue to be together? The topics you two talk about are probably irrelevant, right?"
She had no other intention, she was just telling the truth.
Wan Muqi said indifferently and seriously, "Qin Mi, this is not something you should worry about."
Qin Mi was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Indeed, I am meddling in your business. But don't worry, I'm not the type to cling to you. Since you have someone you like, I no longer like you. You don't have to worry about me making things difficult for An Mi at school. I wouldn't bother to do such a thing. After all, you're not the only man in this world."
Wan Muqi had indeed worried that Qin Mi would hurt An Mi before, but judging by what she said today, he was the one who was judging others by his own standards.
Seeing him staring at her without saying anything, Qin Mi continued, "Don't worry, I'm telling the truth. Before I came back, I really admired you, and even now, I still like you."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw him frown.
"But, it's just a liking. I don't even know if it's the kind of liking between men and women. But one thing I'm sure of is that I might like your profession more, because I think lawyers are pretty cool."
"Lawyer Wan, you are indeed outstanding and one of the ideal partners that thousands of girls dream of. But you are only one of them. After all, you are not the only lawyer. Am I right?"
Wan Muqi's brows relaxed. Qin Mi's values were indeed very positive.
He said, "Qin Mi, I'm too narrow-minded. I apologize."
Qin Mi smiled disapprovingly, "Since being lovers doesn't work out, then being just ordinary friends should be fine, right?"
Wan Muqi rarely gave her a cold face. "Okay, if you have any legal disputes in the future, you can always come to me. It's free. I won't charge you any money."
Qin Mi: "That's not necessary. You'd better stop cursing me."
"However, I think it might take more than just a little time for you to pursue An Mi."
Although Qin Mi hadn't known An Mi for long, she could just feel it. Maybe that was a woman's sixth sense.
Wan Muqi: "..."
Why do one or two people say this?
Although he himself almost thought so.
"Come on, if you need my help, just let me know." Qin Mi said.
“…”
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.
This year, the Jiang family is more lively than any previous year.
Su He brought An Chengyuan, An Ruian and An Mi to the Jiang family to celebrate New Year's Eve together.
Neither family has so many rules, and the old lady also agrees very much.
In fact, An Rui and An Mi have rarely had such a lively and festive New Year's Eve.
In fact, when I was living in Anjia, the New Year’s Day was the quietest. There was no New Year’s atmosphere and I didn’t laugh.
And Dad hardly ever comes back.
Even when he was forced to come back by his grandmother, he still had a cold face and found an excuse to leave after eating.
So this year, for An Rui and An Mi, it was the most real New Year.
Old Mrs. Jiang and Father An sat on chairs in the courtyard, watching the children in the yard preparing barbecue tools, everyone was talking and laughing.
For people like them whose half bodies are buried in the earth, this picture is the most precious and happiest moment.
It was Jiang You who suggested the barbecue. She felt that the New Year's Eves in the past were too casual and boring.
So, she came up with this.
It just so happened that there were many young people in the family this year, and except for Jiang Yan, no one else had any objections.
Of course, his opinion didn't matter to them.
He doesn't have the final say at home.
"Sister-in-law, have you and my brother arranged the schedule for having a second child?" Jiang You asked Su He while skewering meat.
She was very concerned about when her little niece would be born into their Jiang family.
Now that she has a little nephew, she also wants a cute little niece.
Su He: "...It's Chinese New Year, how can we not talk about this topic?"
Jiang You: "These are the topics we should talk about during the Chinese New Year."
"Right, Anmi."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and looked at An Mi who was conscientiously skewering meat.
These tasks could have been done by the servants at home, but Jiang You insisted that only by doing it yourself could you feel the joy.
An Mi was thinking about something just now, so she didn't hear their previous conversation.
"Huh? What?"
"Do you want to be a sister-in-law again?" Jiang You asked.
An Mi blinked and looked at Su He, "Sister, are you pregnant?"
Su He was embarrassed: "That's not true, don't listen to Jiang You's nonsense."
An Mi blinked again: "Oh."
Jiang You continued to ask, "Sister-in-law, please don't avoid my questions. I really want to have another niece. Don't worry, I'll take care of her after she's born. It won't affect your career at all."
Su He: "If you want it so badly, why don't you just give birth to one yourself?"
"I heard from your brother that you told Gu Beiyan that you wanted to have two children with him. So, when can I drink at your wedding? When can I become your aunt?"
Jiang You: "...Why are you dragging me into this?"
