Ma Jun looked at Ma Biao with suspicion, clearly not believing his explanation.
But Ma Biao made a solemn promise, turning falsehoods into truth, and even urged Ma Jun to find someone to arrange his wedding, and even entrusted Ma Jun with the entire responsibility of setting the wedding date.
Ma Jun quietly looked at Ma Biao, his hands clasped in front of him as he stared at Ma Biao and asked, "Do you know what needs to be done and what procedures are involved in getting married? What are the steps involved?"
Ma Biao said, "I don't know. That's why I'm asking you to help me."
Ma Jun chuckled and said, "The first thing two people need to do before getting married is to introduce their parents. The first step for you to take when you marry him is to have both sets of parents meet, set a wedding date, and discuss the woman's requirements."
"Whose RV is it? The bride price and the bride's dowry—all of these things need to be made public. Do you think that getting married is really just about getting a certificate and saying you're husband and wife and that's it?"
"Since you're getting married, could you please set a time for both families to meet?"
After Ma Jun finished speaking, he gestured with his chin towards Ma Biao, "If there's nothing else, you can leave."
Ma Biao was a little annoyed. He scratched his head and stood there, "Does getting married have to be this complicated?"
He thought that he would just tell his sister about the wedding, and the bride and groom would just have to come to the wedding venue. He didn't expect there to be a second step.
Ma Biao hesitated to move, so Ma Jun looked up and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Ma Biao had no choice but to dawdle and walk away.
Since his sister said there were so many closed stores, then there must be that many closed stores. Therefore, Ma Biao decided to take care of them the next time Lin Jingyu contacted him.
Coffee shop.
Lin Jingyu sat there waiting. Su Ying walked in from outside and saw Lin Jingyu resting his chin on his hand, gently stirring his coffee with a spoon.
"Jingyu!" Su Ying stared expectantly at Lin Jingyu's face. "You went to see Ma Biao? What did that kid say? Did he agree?"
Lin Jingyu curled her lips into a smile and said, "Why wouldn't he agree? He found a woman like me who took the initiative to marry him. How could he refuse?"
Su Ying breathed a sigh of relief. Ma Biao had actually agreed! That was wonderful.
Shuying patted her chest and said, "It's good that he agreed. I was worried that he might not appreciate it and would drag his feet and refuse to agree."
As she spoke, Su Ying looked at Lin Jingyu with a gratified expression, "I knew my daughter was beautiful and capable. What man wouldn't be tempted by her? Only someone like Li Duo is so ungrateful that he actually wanted to break off the engagement with my daughter!"
Upon hearing Li Duo's name, Lin Jingyu's expression tightened.
She couldn't even think about Li Duo right now, because mentioning him would make her angry, furious, and resentful.
But what she should do now is to get benefits from the Lin family first; she can't worry about anything else.
Su Ying then asked, "Is it easy for you to bring it up with the Lin family?"
Lin Jingyu replied, "It's easy to say, what's so hard about it? It's normal for someone my age to want to get married. The sooner we settle down, the more at ease they'll feel."
Su Ying said, "Actually, you are still young. If possible, I would rather you not get married so early. But the current situation forces us to get married. Only by getting married can we maximize your benefits."
"You should bring up the marriage proposal with the Lin family as soon as possible! This is quite important. Also, you absolutely must not say it over the phone, but go home and have a serious talk with your parents face to face!"
Lin Jingyu nodded and said, "Mom, I'll remember. I'll definitely talk to her properly."
Ning Jing kept Su Ying's words firmly in mind, because she was convinced that Su Ying would never harm her. Her own mother had always cared for her since childhood, giving her all the best resources and things; how could Su Ying possibly harm her?
When Lin Jingyu returned home that day, he found that his parents were not home, and even Lin Han was not there. He was puzzled, "Where did my parents go?"
The servant mumbled, "Madam Shen and Mr. Lin went to the North City early this morning, saying that a relative's baby there is having a birthday party and they wanted to go and see."
Lin Jingyu was taken aback. Did they have relatives in Beicheng?
How could she not know that her parents had such important relatives in Beicheng?
It wasn't that Lin Jingyu was being paranoid, but how could people of Shen Jingyao's status and position, like Lin Yiyu, possibly bring gifts to celebrate a relative's child's birthday in person?
Moreover, in Lin Jingyu's memory, all of the Lin family's relatives were local. When did they start having more relatives in Beicheng?
After thinking it over, Lin Jingyu asked, "Is Tuantuan home?"
"The young master took a day off and went along with us."
Lin Jingyu was taken aback. "You mean Lin Tuantuan went along, so my sister-in-law went too?"
The servant nodded again and said, "Yes, they all went together."
Lin Jingyu suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Why wasn't Lin, a member of the Lin family, not notified when a distant relative's child had a birthday celebration?
Moreover, her daily work and residence are in the northern part of the city.
After checking his phone repeatedly, Lin Jingyu discovered that he had indeed never received any notifications from his parents.
What's going on? How come she wasn't notified of such an important guest?
At Wen Shu's home.
The little boy, Wen Rourou, wore a tall, fluffy hat on his head. His chubby face was flushed red, and he looked excited and happy.
Today is Wen Rou Rou's birthday. Many, many guests came to our house. Wen Rou Rou is the little star of our family. Everyone gave him gifts and wished him a happy birthday. Even his older brother Tuan Tuan came!
