Erwa thought to himself that he had waited for so long, Yu Xiang should have made up her mind by now.
If I were already her boyfriend, I would soon be able to openly protect her.
Like that person just now, if you meet him again, he can confidently say that he is Yu Xiang's boyfriend.
These days, Yu Xiang is still going through a lot of inner turmoil.
The people she was introduced to for blind dates complained, and there were also troublesome people coming to her door. She longed for someone to rely on.
Erwa's behavior just now made her more reassured.
Seeing Erwa staring at her waiting for an answer, she bit her lip and said, "Aren't you afraid your family will object if you date me?"
This has always been a worry in her heart.
Erwa laughed. "Why do you think I came back early? It was because my brother reminded me. My parents don't interfere with my dating life; they respect my choices."
Yu Xiang was somewhat surprised, but still worried, she said, "Then they don't know my situation, do they?"
If I had known her situation, I might not have been so open-minded.
"Your situation?" Erwa frowned and thought for a moment. "My family knows you run your own shop, does that count as them knowing your situation?"
Yu Xiang clenched her fists. "Do they know that I'm the only one left in my family? And that I'm older than you."
"I don't think I mentioned that." Erwa scratched his head.
Sure enough, Yu Xiang looked a little dejected.
"Dating is between the two of us, why are you so concerned about these things?" Erwa asked, puzzled.
Yu Xiang could only nod. Well, she'd already come this far, so she might as well be a little braver. "If your family knows my situation and still agrees to us dating, then I'll say yes."
She didn't want to miss out on such a good opportunity as Erwa, so she decided to give herself another chance.
If Erwa's family doesn't agree, then she'll give up and let it go, assuming they're not meant to be.
To her surprise, Erwa looked delighted after she finished speaking. "Really? If my family all agrees, you'd be willing to date me?"
"Um."
“Let’s go make a call, I’ll ask right now,” Erwa said impatiently.
Oh, so in such a hurry?
Fortunately, there were no customers in the shop, so she closed the door and the two of them made a phone call to a nearby convenience store.
At this moment, Zhao Qinglan was home alone. Her three children had already started school, and her husband had gone to work. She made some tea and took a nap in the rocking chair.
The phone rang, and she slowly got up and walked over.
As soon as the call connected, Erwa's eager voice came through. "It's me, Erwa."
"Erwa, what's wrong?" Zhao Qinglan asked, puzzled.
"Mom, I have something to ask you."
"Okay, go ahead and say it."
"Mom, I want to date Yu Xiang. Do you remember Yu Xiang?"
"Nonsense, you ran away before the New Year was even over for someone else, how could Mom not remember?" Zhao Qinglan said in an unfriendly tone.
Yu Xiang, who was standing next to Erwa, blushed bright red when she heard the answer from the microphone.
"Mom, it's like this, I want to date Yu Xiang. She's the only one left in her family, and she's a few years older than me. Do you and Dad agree to us being together?"
Erwa explained directly as Yu Xiang had requested.
At this moment, Yu Xiang was extremely nervous.
"Why are you locking up the few people left in her family when you're dating her? So what if she's a few years older? 'A woman three years older is like a gold brick.'" Zhao Qinglan thought her son disliked Yu Xiang because of this, and she was very dissatisfied.
Yu Xiang was pleasantly surprised to hear Zhao Qinglan's answer.
"So, Mom, you agree, right?"
"Nonsense, as long as the girl is nice and you're willing, Mom won't stop you."
"See? I told you my family supports me." Erwa beamed with joy.
What? Yu Xiang is also there? Zhao Qinglan immediately recalled whether she had said anything she shouldn't have. Erwa, that blockhead.
Yu Xiang was so embarrassed that she pinched Erwa.
Knowing that Yu Xiang was also there, Zhao Qinglan said seriously, "Since you're serious about dating Yu Xiang, you should treat her well. If I find out you've wronged her, you'd better watch out for your legs."
"I understand, Mom. Don't worry."
Erwa cheered as soon as he hung up the phone.
"Yu Xiang, did you hear that? My mom agrees, we can start dating."
Yu Xiang smiled and nodded, but quickly added, "Auntie agreed, but what about Uncle?"
"Don't worry, my mom is the head of the family, what she says goes, so you don't need to care about my dad's opinion."
Okay, she figured out her uncle's position in the family.
Although Yu Xiang had never met Zhao Qinglan, she already had a strong liking for her.
Since Erwa's family agreed, she wouldn't be foolish enough to push Erwa away.
Erwa was so happy that he didn't know how to celebrate.
After thinking it over, he said directly, "Let's go on a date."
So, Yu Xiang, who is just as hardworking as a model worker, closed her shop today for the first time and went on a date with her new boyfriend, Erwa.
Don't let Erwa's past lack of understanding fool you; now that it's a real date, he's got all the tricks up his sleeve.
He first went to see a movie with Yu Xiang, then went shopping together, and then found a restaurant to eat at.
It was getting late when he finally took Yu Xiang home.
Before parting, he suddenly hugged Yu Xiang. "Go back and get some sleep. I'll come see you again tomorrow."
Yu Xiang nodded shyly.
When she entered the house, Erwa was still standing there with a silly grin.
Seeing the lights on in Yu Xiang's house, Erwa left in a cheerful mood.
From this day forward, Li Yanxun is a man with a girlfriend!
If it weren't so late, he would have loved to call his older brother, sister, and parents to inform them all.
