This was the first time An An had asked this question.
Upon hearing the question, Wei Su felt an inexplicable tension.
He knew very well that this girl was far more important to his girlfriend than he was.
It is a valuable quality for a person to know their own limitations, especially since he knew better than anyone else that Jiang Tian did not have many connectors in this world.
An'an is practically her life.
The child's approval is of paramount importance to him.
He forced a smile and revealed a genuine one.
"If you're asking me this question, does that mean you actually want to acknowledge me, that in your eyes I'm not as disappointing as you think?"
An'an shook her head, her tone very sincere: "It's not that I approve of you, it's that Mom approves of you. I want to make Mom happy. As long as you can make Mom happy, I will approve of you. But marriage is very important, and I hope you can answer this question. If you don't like Mom and don't want Mom to be your wife, then I hope Mom can break up with you."
Jiang Tian was indeed moved to tears. She covered her mouth and looked at An An, clearly very gratified that her daughter was able to stand by her side and say so much.
However, Wei Su forced a helpless smile.
Clearly, Jiang Tian didn't believe he would marry her.
After all, there have been precedents before. He himself told her that he might not marry her, and he would not have any other involvement with her.
Their relationship was like duckweed floating on water, without any support; if he wanted to break it off, he could.
Jiang Tian's attitude towards him has indeed improved a lot, but this good thing stems from his kindness towards her; in fact, she doesn't trust him enough at all.
Wei Su understood everything, but he was helpless. He had said those words himself, and they had nothing to do with anyone or anything. He was just arrogantly believing that his feelings for Jiang Tian were just infatuation, and that this infatuation would not last long.
Therefore, he will not be with her.
If he doesn't say it himself, who would know that he had already changed his mind?
Wei Su looked at An An with almost grateful eyes. He was embarrassed to bring it up himself and knew that going back on his word would be a slap in his face. But he didn't expect that someone would offer him a way out in such a short time.
Seeing the different looks in the mother and daughter's eyes, Wei Su smiled and touched An An's hair: "Of course I will definitely marry her. You don't need to worry. As long as your mother doesn't hate me and is willing to marry me, then our marriage will definitely be established."
An An immediately smiled.
On the other hand, Jiang Tian's eyes revealed surprise.
Soon, as if struck by a sudden thought, the surprise in her eyes transformed back into a detached indifference.
She even gave a smile, a smile of doting affection.
She was looking at An'an.
Wei Su's expression almost gave way at that moment.
How could he not understand?
Jiang Tian had absolutely no trust in him.
She thought he was lying to An'an, so she chose to accept this well-intentioned lie.
“An’an, don’t think that your uncle is lying to you. Your uncle really wants to marry your mother. During the time I’ve spent with your mother, I’ve felt warmth for the first time. To me, your mother is more important than my older brother and sister-in-law, and even my nephew. She is the most important person in my heart now.”
"If I don't marry her, who else can I marry?"
For reasons unknown, Wei Su suddenly emphasized it again.
His emphasis added a touch of helplessness to the smile on Jiang Tian's face.
I still don't believe it.
Wei Su was scratching his head in exasperation.
The proverb "What goes around comes around" has come true all too well.
He doesn't have that many thoughts; he just wants to be good to her. Is that so difficult?
Wei Su looked at Jiang Tian with a bitter expression.
Jiang Tian returned his reassuring gaze, as if she understood him.
But what kind of understanding is that? She completely misunderstood!
Wei Su couldn't help but feel a little angry.
An'an looked up at him, puzzled, and asked, "Uncle, what are you angry about?"
This little girl is so perceptive.
Wei Su chuckled dryly: "I'm angry with myself. I could have told your mother how I felt and my opinion about marrying him, but I kept it to myself and waited for you to ask me before I spoke. I was like a block of wood. How could I not be angry with myself?"
"I understand you now, but don't be too angry. You've already made a promise, so just keep it later. But remember, people who don't keep their promises are bad kids and don't deserve any rewards."
An'an even gave him a special reminder.
"Don't worry, I will definitely keep my promise. I won't let your mother down, and I certainly won't let you down either."
Having received his promise, An'an was indeed even happier.
Jiang Tian's eyes showed increasing helplessness, as if to say, "You're being ridiculous."
Wei Su felt really bad.
He's just shooting himself in the foot.
That was exactly what he thought, but his future wife didn't believe a word of it.
When evening came, Jiang Tian coaxed An'an to sleep and then returned to the living room.
Wei Su was still watching TV, looking utterly bored.
The plot on TV was incredibly melodramatic, but Wei Su watched it intently, seemingly completely absorbed in it.
"It's getting late, why don't you head back first?"
Jiang Tian hesitated for a moment, but still said what she wanted to say most.
Sure enough, they're going to kick him out again.
Wei Su didn't leave; instead, he held the remote control and turned to look at her: "Is An'an asleep?"
"Yes, she's already asleep. She's quite tired today, having played all day, so I let her go to sleep early. I didn't even read her a few pages of the story."
"She's probably sleeping soundly and can't hear us talking."
Jiang Tian asked with a questioning look in her eyes, "What do you want to tell me?"
"I want to tell you that everything I said during the day was true. I really want to marry you. Don't worry, no one kidnapped me or tried to blackmail me. I just want to marry you from the bottom of my heart."
Jiang Tian's expression changed instantly!
Wei Su felt an indescribable embarrassment. He knew he had to apologize, or he would have no future.
"I looked down on you before, thinking that I could never be infatuated with a woman. Maybe I fell in love with you at first sight, but I thought that love at first sight would never last long. But as you can see from reality, I not only fell in love with you at first sight, but now, these feelings are getting deeper and deeper."
He was somewhat embarrassed, but what he said was his true feeling.
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, he saw that Jiang Tian was pale with fright.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Don't be afraid."
Jiang Tian shook her head and took a step back; she had been trying to compose herself.
