"For your father, your wife is not just someone you like, but someone who is worthy of the title 'wife'."
As Xu Xinchen spoke, the smile on her face disappeared, replaced by a serious expression: "Judging from your father's current requirements, I am far from being a match for you. I think this is a problem with my abilities, so I hope that through my own efforts, I can make your father accept me."
Hearing Xu Xinchen's heartfelt words, Chen Ningsheng's dissatisfaction gradually subsided, replaced by a look of heartache: "Xinchen, you don't need to think like that. No matter who objects, in my eyes you are the best one. You don't need to force yourself so hard."
Xu Xinchen smiled and nodded: "Of course I know. I'm the best in your eyes. Dare to try not to treat me as the best?"
“However…” Xu Xinchen changed the subject: “I not only want to be the best in your heart, but I also want to be the one most worthy of you in your father’s eyes. A marriage without the blessing of elders will not be happy, and I hope your father can accept me.”
Chen Ningsheng pursed his lips: "Who said we wouldn't be happy without his blessing? I'll be just as happy without his blessing."
Xu Xinchen smiled helplessly: "Ning Sheng, don't deceive yourself. You don't want our father to not even be willing to attend our wedding, do you?"
Xu Xinchen mentioned this, and Chen Ningsheng fell silent. Regardless, if they got married...
If her father is not present, it will raise serious questions about Xinchen's identity.
It would also make Xinchen a target of ridicule from others, which he absolutely could not allow. How could Xinchen, whom he cherished, be ridiculed by others?
Seeing Chen Ningsheng fall silent, Xu Xinchen realized that he was beginning to waver, so she quickly pressed her advantage and said, "You also hope that I can be recognized by your father and marry you openly, right? So please agree to my request and let me go out to work. I promise you that I will protect myself and these things will not happen again."
Chen Ningsheng hesitated for a long time, but in the end he couldn't resist Xu Xinchen's watery eyes and could only nod helplessly: "Then you must promise me that you won't eat with any weird men anymore, and even if you leave me aside and I'm working somewhere else, you have to remember that you are my woman, understand?"
When Xu Xinchen saw Chen Ningsheng nod in agreement, she happily squinted her eyes. But when she heard Chen Ningsheng's jealous request, she immediately burst into laughter and snuggled into his arms.
Chen Ningsheng looked at Xu Xinchen's unfathomable expression, his eyes narrowed dangerously, and he quietly reached out and placed his hand on Xu Xinchen's waist: "What? Do you find my request funny?"
As he said this, Chen Ningsheng's fingers twitched slightly, as if to say that if Xu Xinchen dared to nod in agreement, he would immediately show her how formidable he was.
Seeing Chen Ningsheng's dangerous gaze, Xu Xinchen immediately snapped out of her daze and, suppressing a laugh, said to Chen Ningsheng, "No, no, how could that be? Don't misunderstand me, I didn't have such thoughts." As she spoke, Xu Xinchen quickly got up and hid to the side, afraid that she might be "punished" by Chen Ningsheng if she was not careful.
Chen Ningsheng snorted coldly, pulled Xu Xinchen, who had run away, back to his side, and hugged her tightly.
He stopped her from moving: "You're laughing so happily, how dare you tell me you don't have any?"
Xu Xinchen couldn't help but laugh again: "Really, no, I just feel so happy that you care about me so much." As she spoke, Xu Xinchen took the initiative to move closer to Chen Ningsheng's face and gently kissed Chen Ningsheng's cheek.
Chen Ningsheng was taken aback. He reached out and covered his cheek where Xu Xinchen had kissed him. A smile appeared in his eyes, but he still pretended to be arrogant and said, "Who knows if you're telling the truth or not? Maybe you just said a few nice words to coax me."
Xu Xinchen quickly extended her finger, making a swearing gesture: "I swear, if what I said was just to coax you, then, then..." Xu Xinchen hesitated for a long time, unable to think of how she should swear.
Taking advantage of Xu Xinchen's inattention, Chen Ningsheng kissed Xu Xinchen's cheek: "Then I'll let you stay by my side for the rest of your life. Of course, even if what you said is true, you still have to stay by my side for the rest of your life."
Xu Xinchen listened to Chen Ningsheng's request and nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, then I'll swear like this."
After laughing and joking around for a while, Chen Ningsheng finally let go of Xu Xinchen, allowing her to do what she wanted. The first thing Xu Xinchen did upon gaining her freedom was to find her long-unused notebook, take a pen from beside it, and write down her strengths and resume.
She had already made up her mind that she would make a name for herself and impress Chen Ningsheng's father, and she absolutely could not rely on Chen Ningsheng in any way.
Otherwise, no matter how hard she tries, she will inevitably be marked by Chen Ningsheng and helped up by him, which is not what she wants to see. And Chen Ningsheng's father will definitely not acknowledge the results obtained in this way.
After working for a long time, editing and revising the information on her resume, and writing several pages, Xu Xinchen finally finished preparing her resume. After closing the notebook, Xu Xinchen planned to take a shower and get some sleep before thinking about job hunting.
After all, she hadn't properly groomed herself for so many days, and she couldn't stand her current appearance. She needed to tidy herself up properly tonight so she could have the confidence to go to the company for a job interview.
After waiting outside for a long time, Chen Ningsheng finally saw Xu Xinchen leave the study. He immediately grabbed his things and tiptoed into Xu Xinchen's room.
When Xu Xinchen came out after taking a shower, Chen Ningsheng had already taken over the bed. Xu Xinchen paused while drying her hair and looked at Chen Ningsheng with a look that said, "I'm so weak, do you still want to torment me?"
Chen Ningsheng blushed and said firmly, "I don't have such dirty thoughts. I just want to hold you while I sleep."
Xu Xinchen raised an eyebrow in disbelief: "Are you serious? I don't find it very believable."
Chen Ningsheng immediately patted his chest and said to Xu Xinchen, "If I were to lay a finger on you, I'd be a beast, okay?"
