After the two of them spoke, Liu Nian told Liu Yansheng and Liu Xing about Gu Minhang and her intentions. Liu Yansheng completely agreed. Liu Xing was a little worried, but since Liu Yansheng agreed and Liu Nian also agreed, she couldn't say anything. She thought that when they met, she would see what kind of person the other party was. If it didn't work out, she would definitely oppose it strongly. She couldn't let her sister marry an unreliable man.
Gu Minhang also told his grandfather the news, and the old man had no complaints. He immediately instructed his old steward to prepare the betrothal gifts.
"The dowry for my future great-granddaughter-in-law must be the best, and the amount of the dowry cannot be too small." The old man couldn't stop smiling after receiving the call from his great-grandson.
Both sets of parents have arranged to have lunch together tomorrow at noon.
Gu Minhang stayed by Liu Nian's side all day. He didn't know why, but he felt uneasy if he couldn't see Liu Nian.
Of course, Liu Nian had no idea why he had been so clingy lately.
The system told her that it had implanted the cause of her illness into her body and was now slowly consuming her energy, little by little each day.
Because it was agreed beforehand, Liu Nian would not feel any physical discomfort.
The mission has two and a half years left. If she doesn't leave in this way, it will be really hard to wrap things up later.
System: "Master, according to the normal mission, you have already won over the male lead. However, the original mission was for you to stay in this world and accompany him until his death. But the main system detected that the male lead from another world cannot be delayed for too long, so we have to ask you to leave here ahead of time."
Liu Nian: "I wonder when I'll be able to perfectly resolve this series of tasks."
System: "It'll be quick, good luck, host!"
Liu Nian: "If we add any more oil, it will leak."
That evening, Liu Yansheng sent someone to pick up Liu Nian and bring her back to the Liu residence. Although Gu Minhang was reluctant to part with her, he thought that the two families would officially meet the next day, so he didn't say anything. Liu Nian returned to the Liu family, and he also went back to his grandfather's place.
The next day, Liu Nian was woken up early in the morning. Liu Yansheng seemed even happier than her. He got up early and had a lot of clothes delivered to her, some for him and some for Liu Nian and Liu Xing.
According to him, the parents of both sides should not dress too casually when they meet, and even Liuxing was dragged by the makeup artist to have her makeup done for two hours.
The passing years are no exception.
After finishing her makeup, it was almost time to leave. Liu Yansheng proudly canceled all of today's plans.
Sitting in the car, Liu Nian started to feel nervous. Although she had met Mr. Gu before, it was different for both sets of parents to meet so formally. She felt like an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws.
Seeing her like this, Meteor kept comforting her the whole way, and thankfully it had some effect.
Liu Yansheng was very pleased to see that his two daughters had such a good relationship, and he also regretted neglecting his younger daughter in the past.
His wife's departure was not his daughter's fault, but because of his wife's departure, he blamed all the fault on his youngest daughter.
Although he has provided her with plenty of food and clothing over the years, he has never given her a penny of pocket money. He is still grateful to his eldest daughter, because when he was an incompetent father, it was his eldest daughter who took care of his younger daughter at all times.
"Meteor, your sister is almost at the point of meeting your parents. When will you, as the older sister, have any news? You're not a teenager anymore, you're almost twenty-eight. You can't be single when your sister gets married!"
Meteor's face stiffened. She was extremely annoyed by Liu Yansheng's interference in her love life, but she couldn't show it.
“Father, this depends on fate. My sister’s career is just starting out, she doesn’t have time for romance!” Liu Nian saw that Liu Xing was reluctant to talk about this, but she couldn’t ignore it. “My sister’s personality is like yours, she’s very career-oriented. You can’t force her. When the time is right, she will naturally find a boy she likes.”
Meteor looked at Flowing Years with eyes full of gratitude, but also with a hint of heartache.
She didn't know if Liu Nian's partner was arranged by her father, nor did she know if Liu Nian was acting voluntarily. All she could think of now was that Liu Yansheng was forcing Liu Nian to be with someone she didn't like.
Liu Yansheng wanted to scold Liu Nian, but then she realized that what she said made sense, so she could only sigh helplessly.
"Alright, Dad won't interfere in any of your relationships. But no matter how important work is, you can't always take it too seriously."
"I understand, Father." Meteor breathed a sigh of relief and felt even more affection for his younger sister.
The relationship that Liu Yansheng had chosen for her last time naturally ended because Liu Xing was too busy during this period.
At the entrance of a hotel, the car was parked in front of the hotel gate. Before anyone could open the door for her, Liu Nian opened the door herself and got out of the car.
The location was booked by Gu Minhang; I don't know if he's arrived yet.
Following the waiter upstairs, Liu Nian arrived at a private room in the hotel restaurant, where she felt extremely nervous for a moment.
After taking a few deep breaths, under the teasing gazes of Liu Yansheng and Liu Xing, she finally signaled to the waiter to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, she saw Old Master Gu and Gu Minhang, who were already waiting inside.
She knew Gu Minhang must have arrived a long time ago.
While she was still too nervous to go in, Liu Yansheng went in first, and then Liu Xing patted her on the shoulder.
"Let's go, don't be nervous, your sister is here." Then she took Liu Nian's hand, and the two went inside together.
As soon as Liu Yansheng entered, he immediately greeted Old Master Gu warmly and respectfully.
Gu Minhang also stood up and greeted Liu Yansheng: "Uncle Liu."
