Madam Jing gently nudged Madam Si's arm: "Are you eyeing my daughter? When Wan Ge was little, I would pinch her cheeks and say, 'Why didn't you raise a daughter?'"
"Ahem. It's better to see through things than to say them out loud." Madam Si looked completely innocent.
The two started playfully fighting again.
Wan Ge stood quietly to the side watching; the two of them really had a good relationship.
We should make at least one trip a year, the kind where we don't take our husbands and kids on the trip.
The two are in frequent contact, but the children don't see each other often.
However, before the meal was served, Madam Jing took her daughter to the garden.
Wan Ge immediately realized that Madam Jing had something to say to her, so she silently followed him.
When they reached a corner of the garden, Madam Jing suddenly spoke up, "What exactly is going on between you and Si Yu?"
"What? What happened?" Wan Ge looked completely innocent, as if she had no idea what she was talking about.
"Don't try to act with me. I know how many years I've known An Yu. The way she looks at you is obviously the way she looks at her daughter-in-law."
And doesn't she know what kind of personality her daughter has? She likes to study her own research topic all the time, and often stays in the lab and doesn't want to leave.
She left the remaining small data to other students, whereas in the past she would have handled all the equipment herself.
Once she's figured out and finished researching what she wanted to study, she can start preparing for new things. She doesn't believe a word of it.
Wan Ge knew very well that she couldn't hide it at all, and there was no need to hide it either.
Wan Ge readily admitted, "That's exactly what you think."
"But you? How come you suddenly like Si Yu?" Their families did have a marriage agreement before, but after Si Yu's misfortune, the marriage agreement was dissolved.
She knew her best friend's personality too well, and she didn't want to ruin the relationship, so after she brought it up, the two families gracefully called off the engagement.
After that, the two tacitly agreed never to mention the matter again, and otherwise continued as before.
But now that they've both gone to college, wow, the two kids who broke off their engagement are standing together again. What's going on?
Wan Ge looked at her mother and asked, "If I really want to be with Si Yu, will you support me?"
"Of course I support you. If you like him, I will naturally support you." Madam Jing actually liked Si Yu too. This child was good-looking and well-behaved since he was a child, and he was outstanding in every way. If he hadn't suffered misfortune, what an excellent child he would have been.
Even though he suffered misfortune, he is still very outstanding.
He was admitted to university through a special admission program, not by taking an entrance exam.
Although he can no longer walk, his learning ability remains unchanged; he is still an excellent Si Yu.
However… his leg disability is indeed something that needs to be considered.
He needed to consider his daughter's future, which is why he was so decisive in breaking off the engagement.
And his daughter might not necessarily like him; that was one of the considerations at the time.
But now that her daughter says she likes him, of course she supports her. She supports whatever her daughter likes. But has Wan Ge really thought this through?
Wan Ge looked at her mother very seriously and replied, "Then I can tell you with certainty that I like him."
"So you two are together now?" Madam Jing asked again, puzzled.
Wan Ge shook her head: "Not yet."
"Huh?" Jing asked, looking puzzled.
Wan Ge continued, "Don't worry about things between us. We'll be together when the time is right."
"Alright, I won't interfere in your young people's affairs."
"But I need to remind you that you need to think this through. This isn't just your business, understand?" Putting aside whether it will affect the relationship between the two families, it's not a big deal if it does for the sake of his daughter.
The main reason is that Si Yu is a pitiful child. It's rare for him to meet someone he likes, especially his own daughter. He doesn't want the two of them to get hurt in their relationship.
"Yes, I've already thought about these issues." Wan Ge nodded immediately.
…
When the two returned to the living room, Mrs. Si and the housekeeper were preparing dinner, while Si Yu sat in front of the French windows with a book in his hand.
The floor-to-ceiling windows offer a view of the garden, but it's hard to say whether the person is simply reading or looking out at the garden.
When Madam Si called for dinner, Wan Ge walked behind Si Yu and pushed his wheelchair.
Si Yu looked up at her, but only looked at her quietly.
…
After that, their conversation seemed to completely avoid mentioning what happened that day.
The final exams were fast approaching. When Wan Ge was carrying a pile of books out of the school gate, she was bumped into by a man walking in a hurry, and the books and exam papers were scattered all over the ground.
The boy quickly apologized a few times, then turned and left, his steps still very hurried, as if something urgent had happened.
Wan Ge didn't take it to heart, gracefully squatted down and picked up the books.
Just then, a pair of hands with distinct knuckles were also helping her pick them up.
"Thank you." As Wan Ge expressed her gratitude, she looked up and saw a familiar face.
With a faint smile, Feng Suinian replied, "You're welcome. How come you're carrying so many books by yourself? Do you need any help?"
"No need, thank you." The male lead wasn't exactly unpleasant, and he gave me the feeling that he knew me, which was really strange.
"Alright then." Feng Suinian scratched his head, seemingly sensing the awkward atmosphere. Just as he was about to make an excuse to leave, another voice came from behind him.
What are you doing?
When Wan Ge looked over, she saw Ye Yanmeng with an angry expression. If Wan Ge hadn't been involved, she would have thought she had done something she shouldn't have.
Wan Ge looked at the person in front of her, her face full of doubt: "Student Ye?"
Ye Yanmeng stepped forward and blocked Feng Suinian's path, looking at Wan Ge and then at her pile of books: "What is Jing doing?"
Wan Ge, as if unaware of his meaning, replied, "I'm getting my books and heading home. Is there a problem?"
Perhaps because Feng Suinian was present, Ye Yanmeng did not continue to make a scene: "It's nothing, I just saw that you had a lot of books and wanted to ask if you needed any help."
"No need, I'm leaving now, bye-bye." Wan Ge waved to her.
Then he walked to a car, put the books on the back seat, and drove away.
Knowing she had a lot of things to carry, Wan Ge drove over directly.
Feng Suinian naturally saw it as well, so he was no longer too worried.
