Chapter 39
After resolving their conflict, the two moved in together again. However, this time, it was Xu Wang who moved in with her.
Of course, for Xu Wang, there was no difference. His house was not much different from Jiang Yi's house. As long as the two of them were together, it didn't matter.
Furthermore, the two agreed that they would not easily mention breaking up in the future, and that they would discuss and resolve any issues that arose.
At this point, Xu Wang suddenly felt a little guilty. He lay on the sofa, holding Jiang Yi in his arms and playing with her hair, and said, "I said before that when we encounter problems, we should discuss and solve them, but I failed to do so."
Hearing her self-reproachful words, Jiang Yi couldn't help but feel a little guilty and said, "Well... actually, I... I also have quite a few problems."
Jiang Yi looked at him, and Xu Wang looked at her. Then, slowly, slowly, the two of them began to laugh.
Xu Wang sighed softly and said, "The main thing is that we have very similar personalities. We are young, impulsive, and unwilling to admit defeat."
Jiang Yi thought to herself that she was still better. After all, if he hadn't taken the initiative to back down, she might have continued to be stubborn. However, the current situation was quite good. Xu Wang was willing to back down, and he offered her a way out, so she would naturally take it. After all, that was just her stubborn nature. She would be soft when others were soft, and she would be hard when others were hard on her.
After the argument, the two resumed their sweet and loving life.
After dating for another two years, the two began to discuss marriage.
The first thing to do when planning to get married is to meet the parents.
Upon hearing that she would be meeting the parents, Jiang Yi felt a little intimidated and asked, "What if your parents... don't like me?"
After all, the gap between them was so big. What if his family didn't approve of her? Although she was doing well in her career, the gap was still too large. Even though Jiang Yi was usually quite confident, she still felt a little inferior right now.
Therefore, she was extremely nervous when she went out, holding the clothes up and down to check her appearance, afraid that she would not look good.
Xu Wang waited for over an hour, and seeing that she still hadn't chosen an outfit, he glanced at his watch and realized it was getting late. With a faint smile, he said, "Alright, just wear whatever you like. My parents already know about us and haven't objected."
Jiang Yi looked at him with suspicion, not believing him at all, and said, "Really? But what if they're not happy with me later?"
Xu Wang had actually said the same thing to her several times in the past few days, but she hadn't listened. She kept repeating the same anxiety, which made him very helpless. So he shrugged and said, "What else can I do? It's my wife getting married, not theirs. Even if they don't like her, I still have to marry her. Otherwise, if my wife runs away, who will I ask for her back?"
Jiang Yi was delighted by his words, and her anxiety lessened a little. However, she still felt uneasy when choosing clothes. In the end, Xu Wang casually picked out a light blue shirt for her and said with a smile, "Wear this. My parents like it."
That one sentence had Jiang Yi completely under his thumb. She pursed her lips, glanced at him suspiciously, then changed into the clothes he suggested and went to his house with him.
On the way, he was still filled with unease, holding a mirror and looking at himself here and there, looking up and down, clearly worried that he would leave a bad impression on Xu Wang's parents.
As Xu Wang drove, he watched her uneasy expression with a faint smile on his lips, but said nothing more.
When they arrived at the Xu family home, it was already past ten o'clock. Xu Wang got out of the car, came over to open the car door for her, and then reached out and took her hand as they got out of the car.
This was the first time Jiang Yi had encountered such a situation, and she felt a little embarrassed. So she lowered her head and followed behind him like a timid wife. Because she wasn't watching where she was going, she kept stepping on Xu Wang's feet.
Xu Wang was quite exasperated after having his foot stepped on several times. He turned around, looked at her, sighed, and said, "Could you please watch where you're going?"
Jiang Yi looked somewhat bewildered: "Ah, I've been looking at the road the whole time."
Xu Wang: ...
He looked at the blush on the girl's face, chuckled, and said, "Are you shy?"
Jiang Yi pursed her lips, and after a long while, nodded gently and said, "Mm."
"Ha ha."
Xu Wang smiled and then led her inside.
When they entered the living room, Mr. and Mrs. Xu were already there. Both of them were dressed exceptionally neatly today, and when they saw Jiang Yi, they were as enthusiastic as if they were seeing their own daughter.
"Xiao Yi is here."
After graduating, Jiang Yi rarely came over, and it had been a while since she had seen Fu Zhaoya and Xu's father. Now that she was here as their future daughter-in-law, Jiang Yi felt a little embarrassed. She nodded slightly and said with a soft smile, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
Fu Zhaoya was immediately amused. She went over and pulled her down to sit, saying with a smile, "Why are you being so formal? We already knew you and Xu Wang were together. Even before you two were together, we were hoping you two would get together. What a wonderful girl you are, how could you let someone else's boy have you?"
Xu Wang leaned back on the sofa next to her, gave her a look, and said, "Right? I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Jiang Yi had genuinely thought Xu Wang was just talking nonsense, but she hadn't expected it to be true. Her expression showed a hint of surprise, and she lowered her head, saying, "I thought..."
"You think our family looks down on you? We're not that narrow-minded. We trust Xu Wang's judgment. Besides, we think you're a good girl. A girl we've raised ourselves, we naturally think she's the best from the bottom of our hearts."
Fu Zhaoya waved to her, calling Jiang Yi over. Seeing that Jiang Yi was still a little shy, Fu Zhaoya reached out and pulled her over. Then she opened the box on the table, put the jade bracelet on her wrist, and said with a satisfied expression, "Not bad, it suits you very well."
Jiang Yi pursed her lips, looked down at the jade bracelet with its green hue, which resembled a flower and was indeed very beautiful.
Jiang Yi's voice was a little low, and after a while, she said in a low voice, "Thank you, Aunt Fu."
Fu Zhaoya smiled and nodded, then quickly added, "However, I'll have to change my address soon."
Jiang Yi blinked, and then her face quickly turned red. Her snow-white cheeks gradually became rosy, like peaches, exuding cuteness and sweetness.
Xu Wang looked at her shy expression and winked at her playfully.
After sitting for a while, they prepared to eat. Since this was the first time Jiang Yi had publicly revealed their relationship, the meal was arranged to the highest standard, with all sorts of delicious dishes and meats served. During the meal, Fu Zhaoya said, "It's a pity your mother went back. Otherwise, it would have been so nice for everyone to sit together and enjoy this meal together."
Jiang Yi's mother went back to her hometown. Now that she's old, and Jiang Yi gives her enough money every month, she doesn't work much anymore.
Xu Wang knew his mother's love of lively conversation, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, there will be times when the two of you get together and talk badly about us."
Fu Zhaoya immediately glared at her son and said, "Can't I say good things about you? Why do I have to say bad things about you?"
Xu Wang said, "If we get married, when the two of you get together, won't you just keep saying bad things about your son and daughter-in-law?"
Fu Zhaoya really wanted to beat this unfilial son to death.
Afterwards, the two families had a meal together, and then it was time to prepare for the couple's wedding.
