Chen Suwen and Zhou Qingyun were too lazy to care about Zhou Cunming's attempt to curry favor with the Li family. If he succeeded, all the better; if not, it wouldn't matter.
They were surprised that Song Che would come to their house, bringing some gifts with him.
"What did you say?"
"Uncle and Aunt, I want to date Comrade Zhou Ling with the intention of getting married. I hope you can give me your blessing."
Chen Suwen & Zhou Qingyun: "..."
Chen Suwen looked Song Che up and down, and really couldn't figure out why he would want to be with Zhou Ling when they weren't forcing him to "take responsibility".
It wasn't that she wanted to belittle her daughter, but rather that the two of them were mismatched in terms of demeanor.
Although in this life, her family changed from being from Guangdong Province to being from Shandong Province.
But Song Che hasn't changed. He's still from Yangcheng, and his family is exactly the same as in his previous life.
His family background is so good, and when he married Zhou Ling, the daughter of a worker, people said they were not a good match. Now that Zhou Ling is a country girl, they are even less compatible.
Why did he suddenly want to marry Zhou Ling?
Moreover, according to the situation in the previous life, Zhou Ling and Song Che got married because the original owner had schemed and made a fuss for a long time, forcing Song Che to marry Zhou Ling.
Didn't Song Che originally have a childhood sweetheart, Su Qingyu, with whom he was about to get married?
Although Su Qingyu later married another man from their compound, and the two lived a good life after marriage, weren't many people more optimistic about Song Che and Su Qingyu at that time?
Logically speaking, Su Qingyu should have liked Song Che as well.
It's unlikely that Song Che truly had no feelings for Su Qingyu at all.
Even without her "breaking up" the couple, would Song Che still not be able to be with Su Qingyu?
Zhou Qingyun looked at Song Che from head to toe and found some things he was not satisfied with.
Although Song Che, a soldier, was very respectable, Zhou Qingyun still disliked the guy who wanted to kidnap his daughter.
"If you want to date my Ah Ling, you need her consent, right?"
"This is the new China, where arranged marriages aren't as strictly followed. We parents can't force our daughters to date a young man, can we?"
Chen Suwen spoke in a grand and dignified manner, but in fact, her actions were not problematic.
Her children's marriages were all with their own consent; she did not force them.
As for her past life... that was done by the original owner, not by her.
Xu Huixue and Zhou Cunzhi's marriage was based on their own mutual attraction; she never forced her son to marry anyone.
Song Che also knew that it was wrong of him to go directly to Zhou Qingyun and Chen Suwen; when it comes to dating, one should talk to the people involved.
But he also knew very well that relationships and marriages without parental blessings could run into problems.
Chen Suwen turned to look at her daughter's room, then at Song Che, "Young man, tell me about your situation."
Although she knew about Song Che, she had only met him once in her life and had no chance to learn about his situation.
So he still needs to introduce himself.
"My name is Song Che, I am 20 years old, and I am serving in the army in southwestern Yunnan Province. I am now a company commander."
"My family is from Guangzhou in Guangdong Province. My parents were both soldiers, and my siblings were all in similar situations."
“My family is well-off, and my allowance is decent. If Comrade Zhou Ling dates me, or even marries me, she won’t suffer.”
Song Che didn't know why he cared so much about Zhou Ling.
When he rescued her from the river, he didn't even perform CPR or artificial respiration; Chen Suwen pushed him away as soon as he pulled her out.
In this situation, there is no need to worry about the rescued person using his reputation as a lesbian to blackmail him into marrying a wife.
Moreover, both Chen Suwen and Zhou Qingyun have formally stated that they are grateful to him for saving their daughter, but it is only gratitude, and they will not repay kindness with enmity by making him marry Zhou Ling.
But he couldn't help but be drawn to the pale face of the girl who had been rescued, and her face kept popping into his mind whenever he had a moment of free time these past few days.
After thinking it over, Song Che contacted his family and told them that he might have someone he liked.
His family initially thought he was referring to Su Qingyu, whom he had grown up with, but he stated that it wasn't her.
It's impossible for Song Che not to see that his good brother Lu Fang liked Su Qingyu, but Su Qingyu is indeed outstanding.
There have been many outstanding girls around him since childhood, but Su Qingyu is excessively outstanding, so it's normal for boys of the same age to follow her.
Because their family backgrounds were similar, and Lu Fang was unable to see his own heart, he often did things like bullying Su Qingyu because he liked her, which led to their relationship not being very close.
On the contrary, Song Che and Su Qingyu were closer, and everyone thought they were a perfect couple, a match made in heaven.
But now Song Che understands that he did have feelings for Su Qingyu, but those feelings weren't very deep.
People's hearts are always changing.
When you're young, you might have had a crush on someone, but as time goes by, that feeling might be gone.
That's probably how he felt about Su Qingyu.
On the contrary, Zhou Ling, a girl he had only met once, had recently caught his attention, and he later learned about her from others.
It turns out she didn't fall into the water on purpose; she encountered human traffickers and was knocked unconscious by them during a fierce resistance before falling into the water.
She is a brave girl, as well as a smart and beautiful one.
