"My daughter is right, Li Boren. Our daughter is pretty, well-educated and has a good job. Why would Xu Minghao look down on her? Xu Minghao is just a regiment leader. My daughter is more than worthy of him, but he is trying to marry above his station." A woman with a slightly mean look walked out of the kitchen and sneered.
"Chunyan, don't interfere in this matter." Seeing his wife like this, Li Boren knew that she was thinking of that man, and immediately said with a dark face.
"Why can't I interfere? This is my daughter's marriage. As a mother, can't I interfere?" Wang Chunyan was furious when she heard her husband say this.
"Whether you are doing this for your daughter's marriage or for yourself, you know it clearly in your heart." Li Boren's eyes were extremely aggressive, as if he wanted to see through the other person's mind.
"I don't know what you are talking about. I am talking about my daughter's marriage now." Wang Chunyan didn't dare to look at Brigade Commander Li. Her eyes flickered and she lowered her head slightly.
"I hope so. I'll go back to the army first. I won't be back for dinner tonight. I will take care of our daughter's marriage." Li Boren looked away and sighed when he saw his wife's guilty look.
Seeing Li Boren leave, Li Yueting walked over and begged Wang Chunyan, "Mom, I don't want to go on a blind date with anyone else. I just like Xu Minghao. Mom, you know my personality. Once I decide on someone, I won't look back."
"Mom, what do I know? Don't worry, I will help you get whatever you want!" Wang Chunyan caressed Li Yueting's head lovingly and coaxed her softly.
"Thank you, Mom. I knew you were the best to me." Li Yueting smiled happily when she heard that Wang Chunyan helped her.
Wang Chunyan looked at Li Yueting's face, which was 80% similar to hers, and it was as if she saw her younger self. She also fell in love with Xu Minghao's father Xu Haohui at first sight, but Xu Haohui did not like her. After all, she was the mainstay of the art troupe back then, but he rejected her for a rural girl.
Now Xu Minghao also rejected her daughter for a rural girl. It was such a great humiliation that she would never be able to forgive him for the rest of her life!
Thinking of this, a plan came to my mind.
She found a soldier and ordered, "Tell Captain Xu to come over for dinner tonight and tell him that Brigadier General Li wants to discuss something with him."
"Yes, Madam Brigadier," the soldier replied loudly.
In the evening, at Brigade Commander Li’s house.
Xu Minghao felt something was wrong as soon as he entered the door, because he did not see Brigade Commander Li, but only Wang Chunyan and Li Yueting.
"Minghao, you are here. Please come in. I cooked a lot of dishes today. Please sit down and taste my aunt's cooking." Wang Chunyan greeted him warmly.
"Aunt Wang, I won't be eating. I've already eaten. Where's Commander Li?" Xu Minghao frowned as he looked at the table full of delicious food. Commander Li said he wanted to discuss something with him, but he wasn't there? This made him even more confused.
"My father will be back soon. Brother Xu, please sit down and have a glass of wine first." Li Yueting said as she brought a glass of wine to Xu Minghao.
"I won't drink. Since Brigade Commander Li is not here, I guess it's not a pressing matter. I'll go back to the army first. I will look for Brigade Commander Li in person tomorrow." Xu Minghao glanced at the wine in the glass and said seriously.
"Brother Xu, do you still blame me? I am really sorry if I have caused you trouble these days. You saved me twice, and I just wanted to repay you for saving my life. I have no other intention." Li Yueting said softly with tears in her eyes.
Li Yueting dressed up specially today, wearing a white blouse that revealed a pair of white calves. Her hair was combed neatly, her eyebrows were curved, and her red lips were tender. She looked like a little beauty, but at this moment her eyes were filled with tears, which made people feel pity for her.
But Xu Minghao didn't even glance at Li Yueting, which made Li Yueting very angry. However, when she thought about the plan later, her face unconsciously turned red.
"Yes, Minghao, we invited you to dinner today just to repay you for saving my daughter. We have no other intentions. I have also heard about what happened between you and my daughter. My daughter was ignorant and didn't know you had a fiancée. I have already taught her a lesson, and she sincerely regretted it. Do you think you can forgive her?" Wang Chunyan explained with a smile.
"It's okay, just explain it clearly. I don't take it to heart." Xu Minghao felt relieved when he heard the other party say this. He was really afraid that the other party would keep pestering him.
"Then, you and my daughter can drink this glass of wine, and all the previous unpleasantness will be wiped out." Wang Chunyan enthusiastically picked up the wine on the table and handed it to Xu Minghao.
As a soldier, Xu Minghao was still vigilant. He was asked to drink since he entered the door. Moreover, Brigade Commander Li was not at home. He was the only man in the house. If something happened, he would not be able to explain it even if he had ten thousand mouths.
In addition, due to his professional habits, Xu Minghao generally does not drink alcohol. Drinking can easily cause mistakes. If he wants to drink, he drinks with his brothers. He is really not used to drinking with women.
So Xu Minghao frowned and postponed: "Aunt Wang, I'm sorry, I have to train tonight, and drinking can easily cause delays. I'll leave first."
"No! You must drink this wine, otherwise you have not forgiven my daughter, and you don't take us, Old Li, seriously." Wang Chunyan was a little annoyed when she saw that Xu Minghao was not moved. She was not a good-tempered person, and she looked very ugly after being rejected again and again.
"Wow, there are so many delicious foods and wines. You, Xu Minghao, didn't even call me before you left. Brigade Commander Li also asked me to come for dinner, but you wanted to eat all by yourself. You are so mean." A familiar voice sounded from behind, with a hint of ridicule.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was Shen Ming and Li Boren. Unlike Shen Ming's playful smile, Li Boren had a gloomy face.
When Wang Chunyan saw her husband, her hands couldn't help but tremble and she almost spilled the wine in the glass.
The atmosphere that followed was very strange. Xu Minghao had a blank expression on his face, Li Boren had a dark face, Wang Chunyan was absent-minded, Li Yueting lowered her head, and only Shen Ming ate his food heartlessly, his stomach was so full that he looked like he was about to get bloated.
"By the way, although Lao Li's wife is not very kind, her cooking skills are still good." Shen Ming said while picking his teeth with a toothpick.
"Why are you here?" Xu Minghao raised his eyelids and asked.
"I heard that Brigade Commander Li invited you to dinner tonight, and I was a little angry. We're both subordinates, so I can't just take care of you! I went to find Brigade Commander Li, but as soon as he heard about it, he dragged me back without stopping, afraid that you would eat alone, hehe!"
"Thanks anyway." Xu Minghao knew that the other party was not telling the truth, so he did not expose it.
In fact, even if they hadn't come today, he could have escaped by himself.
"Oh, I don't understand. Aren't you just more handsome? I'm not bad looking either. Why doesn't anyone like me? Oh! It's really unfair!" Shen Ming touched his handsome face and said with a melancholy look.
