Chapter 915: Is the situation so open?
"That's not true. You're just overthinking it." I smiled brightly at her and said, "Tell me your plan."
Xiao Yan touched her chin, looking thoughtful. "There are three ways!"
I immediately felt admiration for her. I couldn't think of a single way to deal with my own mother, but she had come up with three methods in just a short while.
"Sister, tell me." I took the apple core she had just eaten and handed her a big white peach.
She accepted the juicy peach with satisfaction. "The first option is to confront her head-on. I'll go back with you and explain the facts to her. If that doesn't work, we'll cry, make a scene, or even commit suicide..."
I can't listen to it anymore. It's such a waste of my big peach.
"Stop, stop, stop! Your psychology teacher will be ashamed of you! Tell me the next solution!"
She took another bite of the peach. "The second way is, tell me where you hide your household registration book. When we get back, you cover for me and I'll steal it for you."
I held my forehead, speechless. "Has your situation become so open since you left the police force?"
Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow. "I'm not a police officer anymore, but I still have my skills. Back when I was an undercover agent, I could easily break into houses, pick locks, and steal things."
I took a deep breath. "Can we apply what you've learned, using your brain?"
Xiao Yan seemed to be thinking about it. "It's not impossible, but I have to use Mr. Xiao's help. Maybe I have to use your father too."
"This is easy. You can use my dad as you like, and I'll talk to Lao Xiao." I felt like I finally had a reliable idea.
After Xiaoyan explained this and that to me, I felt like I had an epiphany!
This is the simplest way, let my mother take the initiative to persuade me to get the certificate!
That night, Xiao Shiqiu returned exhausted.
This time, I looked at the person clearly before I pounced on him. My enthusiasm made Xiao Shiqiu very happy, "Baby, let's go take a shower first..."
"Wait, I have something important to tell you." In the face of beauty, I still have self-control.
Sure enough, when he saw how serious I was, he stopped what he was doing, picked me up and sat me on the sofa. After adjusting to a comfortable position, he said cautiously, "Tell me, what's the matter? Are you planning to postpone getting the marriage certificate?"
Seeing the anxious light in his eyes, my original intention to tease him instantly faded.
I began to repent that I was a little heartless. Xiao Shiqiu never wanted to make me feel uncomfortable, so why would I want to tease him with such a thing?
I shook my head hurriedly, "No, no, just listen to me first."
So, I told him again what I had told Xiaoyan during the day, and then told him the two bad ideas Xiaoyan had come up with earlier.
He laughed out loud when he heard this, "Xiao Yan is really close to you, she used all her best skills to help you.
Let me guess, the third option has to be implemented by me, right?"
My eyes widened in surprise. "You planted a bug on me?"
Xiao Shiqiu tapped my forehead and said, "What are you thinking about? This is easy to guess. Given your family's situation, the simplest way is for me to talk to your dad, your dad will talk to your mom, and then your mom will persuade you to get the marriage certificate with me.
It’s a bit convoluted, but it works.”
I listened with my mouth open for a long time. Is there anything this guy can't do?
"You, you are so capable, why don't you become a police officer?"
He pinched my nose and said with a bit of amusement, "If I became a policeman, how could I buy you a big villa and a big plane? Would I rely on corruption and bribery?"
Well, although the value of a career cannot be measured by money, I do think his current job is more valuable. At least it supports tens of thousands of employees.
Xiao Shiqiu was a man of action, so he picked up the phone and called my dad.
"Dad~ It's me, Shiqiu." Xiao Shiqiu called out "Dad" very smoothly.
My dad was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds, he suddenly seemed to react and said in surprise, "Hey, Shiqiu, why did you think of calling Dad?"
Well, my dad got into the role pretty quickly.
"Dad, I want to tell you something. I plan to go get the certificate with Mengmeng this week. What do you think?" Xiao Shiqiu said calmly, but he glanced at me and blinked at me twice.
My dad's voice got even louder over there. "Great! You two are not young anymore, it's time to get the marriage certificate. You can take your time planning the wedding, but it's only right that you get the certificate first."
I was a little annoyed. How could it be that we were both not young anymore?? It made me sound like a thirty-something old maid who couldn't get married.
"But Mengmeng is not very happy now. She wants to delay it a little longer..." Xiao Shiqiu's tone suddenly dropped, as if he was really distressed.
Before he could finish, my dad started to speak righteously, "Mengmeng is such an ignorant child. We have spoiled her. She never thinks of others when she does things.
Shiqiu, I'm telling you, don't worry, I'll take care of this matter. I guarantee you'll get the certificate this week."
My dad's attitude made me even more frustrated. It was as if I was the backlog of stock in his warehouse. Now that someone finally wanted me, he couldn't wait to clear me out.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Shiqiu smiled meaningfully, "Okay, don't worry about your mom, just wait for your mom to call. Remember, if you adjust your posture a little more, it will look more like the real thing."
Sure enough, an hour later, my mother called.
Looking at the 'Mom' displayed on the screen, I could hardly suppress the smile.
He took a deep breath and pressed the hands-free button in a lazy tone: "Mom, what's the matter? Why are you calling so late?"
"Mengmeng, I heard from your dad that Shiqiu wants to get married with you, but you're not happy about it."
"Well, I just graduated and I'm still young. Why should I be in such a hurry?" I answered casually on purpose.
"Why do you only think about yourself, kid? Don't you think about how old Shiqiu is?" My mother really started to persuade me. Xiao Shiqiu looked a little unnatural. Mentioning his age seemed to poke a hole in his lungs again.
Unable to bear listening any longer, his eyes wandered and he simply stood up and went to the balcony.
I forced myself to hold back my laughter and continued to act pretentiously, "He's not that old, why can't he just wait?"
"Alas, how can he not age? If he delays for another two years, he will be over 40, and his fertility will decline by then.
Your father is right. You should get the certificate as soon as possible and get pregnant as soon as possible. As for your studio, if you can do it, then do it. If you can't, then just let it be.
No matter what I say, you won't starve. Let me tell you, women who give birth early recover faster. Look at me, I maintain a good figure because I gave birth to you early..."
My father has exceeded his expectations. Not only did he successfully urge us to get married, he also urge us to have children.
Xiao Shiqiu, who was eavesdropping on the balcony, couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
He and my dad are two old foxes!
My mother and I looked quite smart, but in fact, we were always being coaxed by them in various ways.
