Dai Donglin drove Chu Yu out for a drive, and the two returned after having dinner. Zhouzhou and Duoduo were already asleep. The two aunts couldn't help but sigh when they saw how loving the couple was. They said that life is hard for rich people, but Miss Zhou and Mr. Dai have always been so good to each other, and now they have a son and a daughter. They are truly winners in life.
After Mandarin is launched, there are certain requirements for research and development. Chu Yu hopes that Liu Mingchuan will put in more effort to help Mandarin develop new ingredients.
But Liu Mingchuan was busy with his love life and was rarely in the lab, so Chu Yu couldn't help but go to Shen Jun's factory to catch him.
Liu Mingchuan had a bad temper and didn't care at all. He was getting old and had earned enough money. He used to be very passionate about chemistry, but over the years, his passion had begun to fade. Liu Mingchuan didn't want to dedicate the rest of his life to chemistry anymore. He just wanted to be in love and spend more time with Shen Jun.
Liu Mingchuan had been wasting his life. When he was young, he was even locked up in jail because of Fu Yaning. He didn't want to have any more regrets in the rest of his life.
“Your mom is too busy. If I put all my energy into my work, we won’t see each other for several days.”
Chu Yu sighed helplessly, "Old Liu, the company needs you! If I had known you would be so reckless, I wouldn't have introduced my mother to you."
Liu Mingchuan snorted, clearly indicating his unwillingness to cooperate.
Fortunately, Chu Yu was no pushover. She knew how to manipulate Liu Mingchuan. Seeing that Liu Mingchuan was dragging his feet and hadn't managed to win over Shen Jun, she curled her lips and said:
"Don't you want to know what my mom thinks? I'll help you find out her thoughts, and you can go back to work and focus on your job, okay?"
Liu Mingchuan was taken aback. Shen Jun's feelings? They had always gotten along quite harmoniously, but Shen Jun had never made any further plans. Liu Mingchuan knew that Shen Jun didn't want to get married; she wasn't the kind of woman who needed a man to support her.
Shen Jun is rich and doesn't need a man to support her. Liu Mingchuan knows he can't be too hasty, so he can only stay put and wait.
Chu Yu's words moved Liu Mingchuan, and he agreed.
Chu Yu wouldn't betray Shen Jun, but she knew Shen Jun had a good impression of Liu Mingchuan, and she was happy to play peacemaker.
Chu Yu entered the room. Shen Jun was drying her hair. Seeing her come in, she smiled and said, "Where are Duo Duo and Zhou Zhou? Did you come alone?"
Shen Jun changed after she started dating. She had a charming, feminine quality. Women don't necessarily have to be in a relationship, but good love can nourish a woman.
Chu Yu laughed and said, "I came alone, so what? Aren't you welcome?"
Chu Yu feigned jealousy, and Shen Jun smiled and scolded, "How old are you to be jealous of a child? How could a mother not welcome you? No matter how good your grandchildren are, they can't compare to my daughter!"
Chu Yu was satisfied and hugged Chen Jun, saying:
"Mom, what's going on between you and Professor Liu? What do you think of Professor Liu?"
Shen Jun raised an eyebrow. "Did he send you?"
Chu Yu then told Shen Jun about negotiating with Liu Mingchuan, and Shen Jun laughed and said, "You just sold your mother off like that?"
"Of course not, I'm concerned about this important life event. As far as I know, this is your first time dating. Professor Liu is a nice guy, isn't he? Isn't he adorably awkward? And quite innocent too?"
Shen Jun couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Liu Mingchuan's awkwardness and clumsiness. Despite his age, Liu Mingchuan was still often jealous. He would act awkwardly if Shen Jun got close to other men.
Shen Jun had never experienced this kind of feeling before. Being needed and providing emotional value seemed like a good thing. Liu Mingchuan was well-off, highly educated, and lived a simple life. He got along well with Shen Jun.
Shen Jun does not object to living with him.
Shen Jun did not deny Chu Yu's words. Chu Yu couldn't help but laugh. She didn't come for Liu Mingchuan at all. She came for Shen Jun. She hoped that Shen Jun would be happy.
When you reach this age, if you meet the right person, you can be brave. After all, life is short, and every year you live is one less year to live.
Shen Jun blushed slightly. "He hasn't mentioned marriage to me yet, so I can't just bring it up myself, can I?"
Chu Yu was taken aback. Did Shen Jun mean she agreed? But since Liu Mingchuan hadn't brought it up, she couldn't be too proactive. People these days are so tactful; they all like to drag things out. Chu Yu was getting quite anxious.
Chu Yu exclaimed with delight, "I'll go tell Old Man Liu right away!"
Shen Jun was a little anxious, "Oh dear, how can you be so direct? What if they don't mean it that way..."
"How could he not be? He's so worried! Haven't you seen how he's been neglecting his work all day, just running over here to you?" Chu Yu said as she went out. Liu Mingchuan, standing outside the door, heard their conversation and was so excited that he spun around in circles, completely at a loss for what to do.
Shen Jun also saw him and felt a little awkward. Liu Mingchuan looked at Shen Jun, wanting to speak but feeling too excited, and couldn't bring himself to say many things in front of Chu Yu.
Chu Yu found Liu Mingchuan quite funny. "What are you still standing there for? Shouldn't you buy my mom a ring or some jewelry?"
Liu Mingchuan slapped his forehead, "I'll take your mother with me."
Chu Yu placed Shen Jun's hand in Liu Mingchuan's, feeling a strange pang of envy. Looking at Shen Jun's happy expression, she choked up and said, "Old man Liu, you mustn't bully my mother. You must make her happy."
Liu Mingchuan nodded solemnly, took Shen Jun's hand, and walked away.
Liu Mingchuan took Shen Jun to a chain jewelry store and bought a diamond ring and several pieces of gold jewelry. At their age, they wouldn't care about such things, but Liu Mingchuan insisted on buying them, being more cautious than someone getting married for the first time.
This was also the first time Shen Jun had worn a ring. In her previous life, when she married Chu Yu's father, he was penniless. People in the countryside don't have money and can't even afford to eat, let alone buy a diamond ring. In this life, when the original owner got married, she didn't live in a good era, so she couldn't afford to buy a ring.
