Chapter 431 The Auntie Who Sends Money Is Immortal (16)
Wu Siyan received a call from his mother, who asked hesitantly, "Ah Yan, are you with your girlfriend?"
Wu Siyan nodded: "Yes, Mom, do you have something to talk to me about?" Wu Siyan did not hide the fact that she was dating Zhou Shichu, but Zhou Shichu said that they were only dating and not getting married, and she didn't want to have any interaction with his family. She probably had some PTSD about family members. Wu Siyan understood her, so he didn't force her and respected her choice.
"You have been dating for such a long time, do you have any plans to get married? Should we meet your girlfriend's family?" asked Wu's mother. She really felt that her son was irresponsible for dating someone for such a long time without mentioning marriage.
Wu Siyan heard his mother say this and quickly said, "No need, Mom, Shichu and I have a good relationship, but we have no plans to get married. Marriage is just an unnecessary piece of paper for both of us. If we will always be together in the future, what does it matter if we get married or not? If we break up someday in the future, even if we have a marriage certificate, we will still have to get divorced, which will be more troublesome.
Moreover, Shi Chu had a bad relationship with her family and had lost contact with them a long time ago. Because when she was still a minor, her parents wanted to marry her to a rich old man in exchange for the gift for her brother to marry a wife, so she had a knot in her heart about marriage and family..."
Zhou Shichu had never concealed her relationship with the Zhou family, and even to be on the safe side, she told him all the past events one by one. When Wu Siyan heard this, he felt very distressed for the grievances Zhou Shichu had suffered in her childhood, so he was more accommodating to her. If she said she didn't want to get married, then she wouldn't, and he didn't want to let her have any embarrassment at all.
"This girl is pitiful, having to deal with parents like that. But... she never gets married, and I always feel that you are unwilling to take responsibility for her..." Mother Wu was a little conflicted. She thought it was her son who didn't want to marry his girlfriend, but she didn't expect it was her son's girlfriend who didn't want to get married.
"Mom, she is a very strong person mentally. She doesn't care about worldly views at all. I am lucky to meet her. Do you remember that I once said that I would never get married and have children in this life and wanted to focus all my energy on my ideals? At that time, you were always worried that I would end up alone and just hoped that someone could accompany me. Now this person has appeared. She understands my pursuit and doesn't mind being apart from me. Your previous wishes have been fulfilled, and you should feel happy." Wu Siyan explained to his mother in a soft voice.
Mother Wu didn't expect her son to say this, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that she was getting too greedy. Before, she only wanted her son to have a loving companion, and now that he has one, she wants her son to get married, and after getting married, he should have children... People are always like this, when they get a little, they want a little more, so they want more and more, and completely forget the goal they wanted to achieve in the beginning.
"Son, you are right. It was mom who misunderstood. Since you have reached an agreement, I will not force you. I just hope everything is well for you." Mother Wu said. She was a reasonable person. After Wu Siyan explained to her, she stopped urging her son to get married.
However, she knew about her son and his girlfriend, but others didn't. So when Wu Siyan finished his sweet time with Zhou Shichu and went home to accompany his parents, he met his father's old colleague and his daughter who happened to be visiting.
"This is Si Yan, right? Hey, he's a rare young talent, handsome, and I heard he's working in a research institute? Brother Wu, like father, like son!" Chen Chaoping, an old colleague of Wu's father, said with a smile on his face, and asked Wu Si Yan, "Do you remember me? I'm your father's old colleague. When I was a kid, I often came to your house to drink with your father."
"Remember, you are Uncle Chen." Wu Siyan said with a smile.
"Come here, this is my youngest daughter, Chen Qi, 24 years old, who just came back from studying abroad. I heard that you work as a researcher and I admire you very much. You two are young people and have common topics, so go and chat by yourselves. There is no need to talk about old things with us old guys..." Chen Chaoping smiled and pushed his daughter towards Wu Siyan.
Wu Siyan took a few steps back, keeping a sufficient social distance from Chen Qi, and then greeted her: "Miss Chen."
Chen Qi was a pretty girl with a delicate and slim figure and delicate makeup. When she saw Wu Siyan, she was a little shy and said shyly, "Brother Wu."
"Just call me by my name. Brother is the name my girlfriend calls me exclusively. If she knew other girls called me that, she would definitely be angry." Wu Siyan said very gently, but the meaning of his words was very clear, he had a girlfriend.
Sure enough, when Chen Qi heard what he said, her originally blushing face instantly changed color, her expression became a little stiff, and she said dryly: "So Brother Wu, Si Yan, you have a girlfriend?"
Wu Siyan nodded, and Chen Chaoping, who had been listening to the conversation, almost couldn't keep the smile on his face after knowing that Wu Siyan had a girlfriend. He turned around and asked, "Xiao Wu has a girlfriend? When did you start dating? Where is your girlfriend from? What does her family do... Hehe, Siyan won't blame your uncle for asking too many questions, right? I'm also worried about you. After all, you don't know how scheming girls are nowadays. They can do anything to climb up the social ladder. Your uncle is afraid that you will suffer."
When Wu Siyan heard his words, his handsome eyebrows frowned. He felt that Chen Chaoping's words were very harsh, as if he was implying that his girlfriend was a scheming girl. So he said to Chen Chaoping very seriously: "Uncle Chen, I naturally know what kind of person my girlfriend is, so you don't have to worry about her. Uncle should worry more about Miss Chen. She just came back from abroad and must need the care of her lover."
Wu Siyan didn't want to have a falling out with Chen Chaoping for his father's sake, but he also didn't want to continue to argue with him, so he said to Wu's father: "Dad, I still have some things to deal with. I have to go back to the study. I'm afraid I can't accompany Uncle Chen and Miss Chen."
Then he excused himself to the Chen family father and daughter. Father Wu saw that his son had no interest in Miss Chen, so he cooperated with his son: "Then you go and get busy. Work is more important."
After the Chen family father and daughter left, Wu's mother pulled Wu's father's ear and scolded him: "Are you stupid? Didn't I tell you that my son has a girlfriend? You asked your colleague to bring his daughter here. What do you think I don't know? Do you want to break up my son and his girlfriend?"
