"Eat more if you like it, Dad will peel it for you."
"Okay! Thank you, Dad! Dad, remember to peel some for Mom too, she likes to eat shrimp too."
"Okay! Dad got it! I'll peel it right away."
Xi Ran beamed with joy. Her daughter was so sensible and well-behaved; she always thought of her when she ate something delicious.
"Thank you, little one."
Chu Jiang paused in his shrimp-peeling motion and protested, "This isn't right, my dear wife. I peeled the shrimp for you. It's not right for you to thank Xuanxuan; shouldn't you be thanking me?"
Xi Ran smiled without saying anything, giving Chu Jiangyi a knowing look.
Thank u?
That's impossible.
You wouldn't remember to peel shrimp unless your own daughter reminded you.
Of course, thank you, daughter!
snort!
Chu Jiang was also a little confused. He realized belatedly that he needed to coax her and let Xiao Xuanxuan go and keep Xi Yan company.
Then he'll have time to coax his wife.
"Oh, right! Xi Yan! Xiao Xuanxuan will help you tonight."
Chu Jiangning quickly refused, "No, no, you can't. You should take care of your daughter yourselves. Don't even think about bullying my boyfriend. I have to go on a date with Xi Yan tonight to see a movie. I don't have time to take care of your child."
"Didn't you solemnly promise Mom and Dad last night that you would take good care of your daughter? You can't even handle one afternoon?"
“I don’t know who it was last night, but they said they would bring their daughter over to our home to get to know each other better. They’ve been here for less than a day and they want to leave their daughter behind and have some alone time with their daughter. They’re dreaming.”
"Why don't we go all the way and take the lovely little Xuanxuan home? Her parents can help take care of her; they'd be happy to. They haven't seen her for half a day and miss her terribly."
"No need, thank you for your kindness, I appreciate it..."
So the two of them happily went on their date after lunch.
...
After lunch, the couple cleaned up the mess, while Chu Xuan was already fast asleep beside them.
Chu Jiang quickly covered Xiao Xuanxuan with a thin blanket, afraid that she would get cold.
Xi Ran looked helpless.
"It's not cold now, so we don't need to cover ourselves with a blanket!"
"Let's change it. The child is too young to be cold; it's not good for him to catch a cold."
"Fine! Whatever makes you happy!"
Xi Ran shook her head. "There's a kind of coldness that Dad thinks you feel."
Just leave it covered; Xuanxuan will kick it off when it gets too hot.
What is your attitude towards two people dating?
She wouldn't object if the two of them could continue dating and then get married, but she would be in a difficult position if they broke up halfway through.
It's not a good thing for in-laws to become enemies.
She needs to come up with a solution.
Let them get married soon.
This is the best strategy!
If Xi Yan and Chu Jiangning break up, it will become extremely difficult for Xi Yan to even visit Chu Jiangning in the future.
My in-laws are extremely protective of their own.
Offending them is not a good thing for Xi Yan.
Chu Jiang thought about it seriously, "What attitude can I have? They're so sweet together, it's fine this way."
"But have you thought about it? What if they break up while they're dating?
Chu Jiang shrugged, looking indifferent. "So what if we broke up? It's not a big deal."
"But if the two break up, and remain estranged forever, it won't be good for the Chu and Xi families..."
Chu Jiang also realized, belatedly, that Xi Ran was absolutely right.
He and Xi Ran are the link between the Chu and Xi families. If Chu Jiangning and Xi Yan's negotiations break down, their families will be the ones who suffer.
If the two break up, it will definitely involve his and Xi Ran's families.
What to do? His and Xi Ran's little family is as stable as Mount Tai, and he can't let external factors affect his little family.
It would be best if the two of them got married soon to break this awkward situation.
It seems my younger sister's marriage can be put on the agenda.
Xi Yan is such a good boy. Since Chu Jiangning has the ability to win him over, she should definitely make the most of him.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"How about we get Chu Jiangning and Xi Yan married as soon as possible? What do you think?"
Xi Ran wholeheartedly agreed.
For the sake of harmony between the two families, it would be acceptable for Xi Yan and Chu Jiangning to get married sooner rather than later.
"It's decided then. Go home and have a good talk with your parents. They've always doted on you."
"Okay! We'll see what happens when we get home. Once Mom and Dad agree, we can start planning the wedding!"
Xi Ran nodded.
Chu Jiang also thought the method was feasible, so the two of them huddled together and whispered to each other.
