Chapter 254 Episode 18
She had already reached out, ready to grab it, when Wen Changyu's smile vanished. "She's not my girlfriend!"
Xu Shanshan immediately looked at Wen Changyu with resentment.
She has already admitted it herself, and this Wen Changyu has even taken advantage of Qiao?
Just as she was about to question Wen Changyu, Wen Changyu turned around with his things in hand and said, "Comrade Xu, you should go back now. Don't come looking for me again. We're not a good match."
"I didn't ask clearly at the time, so I asked the old battalion commander to arrange a blind date with you. But after thinking about it carefully, we are not suitable for each other."
“Our family backgrounds are very different, which leads to a large gap in our upbringing. This will cause friction in all aspects of our lives, which is not conducive to our marriage.”
"Of course, it's also my fault. I asked someone to tell you at the beginning, but then I backed out at the last minute and didn't explain it to you clearly. I'm very sorry."
Wen Changyu gracefully took all the responsibility upon himself.
"Wen Changyu, what do you mean?" Xu Shanshan was embarrassed and annoyed.
Wen Changyu turned his face away, refusing to look at her.
Wen Yujiao looked at the two men and understood somewhat. They weren't a couple, but rather blind dates, and they hadn't even gotten together yet, but they'd been chased here.
There's no need to take that thing back; we should just chase people away.
“It means he has a girlfriend, introduced by his family,” Wen Yujiao told Xu Shanshan, hands on her hips.
Xu Shanshan ignored Wen Yujiao and stared only at Wen Changyu.
Wen Yujiao: Well, they're not taking me seriously at all.
So Wen Yujiao raised her foot and blocked Wen Changyu's side, forcing Xu Shanshan to look at her directly.
Xu Shanshan glared angrily at Wen Yujiao and asked Wen Changyu, "Are you sure you're going to choose her and not me?"
Wen Changyu originally didn't plan to talk to Xu Shanshan about his relationship with Wen Yujiao, partly because their relationship wasn't settled yet, and partly because it wouldn't be good for Wen Yujiao's reputation.
Secondly, he doesn't need to explain anything to Xu Shanshan now.
But when Xu Shanshan said this, Wen Changyu's anger flared up again. He turned around and grabbed Wen Yujiao's hand, telling Xu Shanshan, "Yes, choose her. She doesn't mind that I'm uncultured, that I'm covered in sweat from training, or that I don't like coffee or have never heard of foreign poetry."
Wen Yujiao "..."
Goodness, there's definitely something going on between these two!
Who has so many stories about blind dates that don't work out?
She had a gut feeling that Wen Changyu wasn't telling the truth, so she didn't want to shield him from criticism.
Wen Yujiao pulled her hand back slightly, considering herself quite strong. Some men couldn't even match her, but…
The person next to me was quite strong, and...
In this short time, Wen Changyu's palms were already covered in sweat.
Wen Yujiao looked up at him and her eyes met Wen Changyu's. His calm eyes were now filled with pleading.
Wen Yujiao thought about it and still didn't pull it back.
Instead, she echoed Wen Changyu's words: "Yes, we'll be a harmonious couple from now on."
"I don't mind him!"
Xu Shanshan glanced at Wen Yujiao, who had two small braids, and sneered at Wen Changyu, "You'll regret this."
Wen Yujiao: "??"
You look down on her?
She raised the hand that Wen Changyu was holding. "He won't regret it!"
After asking her question, Wen Yujiao turned to Wen Changyu and asked, "Do you regret it?"
Wen Changyu shook his head!
Xu Shanshan glanced at the two of them again, then turned and left, still proud.
As soon as Xu Shanshan left, Wen Changyu immediately let go of Wen Yujiao's hand, as if he had been electrocuted.
Wen Yujiao was displeased. "What's wrong? Is my hand electrified?"
Wen Changyu quickly shook his head, "No...no, it's...I just offended you, I'm...I'm sorry!"
"After you've offended me, do you apologize?" Wen Yujiao asked, leaning forward.
Wen Changyu “…I…”
"Tell me, what exactly happened between you and that pretty woman just now?" Wen Yujiao stood up straight and asked.
Wen Changyu: "...I, I went to visit my former battalion commander and ran into Comrade Xu at his factory. I...I thought he was good-looking, so I thought I'd ask my former battalion commander to help me find a match and go on a blind date with him."
"Then what?"
"Then, before the blind date, the old battalion commander carefully introduced Comrade Xu's family situation to me. I... I finally felt that we might not be on the same page, so I ran away at the last minute."
"Is this all?"
"Um!"
Although Wen Changyu nodded, Wen Yujiao felt that this was definitely not the whole story.
But it was obvious that Wen Changyu didn't intend to say anything more, so Wen Yujiao waved her hand and said, "I've brought what I promised to bring you. I have to go now."
"Wait a minute," Wen Changyu called out to her.
"What's wrong?"
Wen Changyu scratched his head; perhaps it was the heat, his face was starting to turn red, and sweat was beading on his nose. "You...I..."
"What?" Wen Yujiao asked curiously.
“I’ll have my mother go to your house to propose marriage later,” Wen Changyu said, holding his breath.
He's a traditional man; since he took advantage of the girl, he should take responsibility.
"…" Wen Yujiao blushed, "Wasn't that too fast?"
"We...we haven't developed any feelings for each other either!"
She hesitated for a moment before pressing, "You went to propose marriage because you're interested in me too, right?"
Before Wen Changyu could speak, Wen Yujiao continued, "Feelings can be cultivated slowly, but the prerequisite is that both people have to be interested in each other, don't you think?"
“…Hmm, hmm,” Wen Changyu’s forehead was also covered in a few drops of sweat.
“Well…okay then,” Wen Yujiao thought, “marriage first, love later is the latest trend.”
——
A few days later, on an auspicious day, He Yuzhi personally went to the Wen family to propose marriage.
Since Wei Zhen and his wife were already satisfied with Wen Changyu, they were naturally happy to finalize the matter.
Xu Shanshan did not leave Beijing and continued to stay at the guesthouse next to the military base. Later, Wen Changyu saw her with a young deputy battalion commander.
I asked around and found out that she had become the deputy battalion commander's girlfriend.
Wen Changyu didn't ask any more questions, but still subconsciously avoided her.
After summer, the Wen and Wen families sat down together to discuss the marriage of Wen Changyu and Wen Yujiao, and planned to hold the wedding at the end of the year.
Because after another year, both Wen Changyu and Wen Yujiao will be quite old.
The two families knew each other well and got along very well. He Yuzhi also liked Wen Yujiao very much. The girl was generous, straightforward, and easy to get along with.
So the wedding date was set very happily.
After Wen Changyu and Wen Yujiao set their wedding date, Xu Shanshan had a conflict with the deputy battalion commander.
The two started arguing at the entrance of the military base. Xu Shanshan questioned the deputy battalion commander, "What do you mean by this?"
"You come from a capitalist family, how can I marry you?"
"What...does my marriage have to do with you?"
"How can it not be related? You're the descendant of a capitalist, your father's still in a labor camp, and you think I'd marry you?"
"I'm so young, do you think I'm throwing away my bright future?"
Xu Shanshan: "...Future? You're really something. Will your future be ruined because of me?"
"What do you think?" the other person asked coldly.
"That's because you're incompetent. If you were capable..."
The other party simply brushed her aside, saying, "Go find whoever you think is capable enough to marry a capitalist's descendant."
