Looking at Gu Mingjing's serious expression, Jian Shu couldn't help but wonder if his previous thoughts were too casual?
She just thought that they could just give it a try and if they were compatible, they would succeed, but she forgot that in this day and age, dating is all about getting married.
There is a big difference between dating now and dating in the future.
Isn't this too unfair to Gu Mingjing, who sincerely wants to marry her?
While Jianshu was seriously reflecting on herself, Gu Mingjing seemed calm, but in fact he was looking at Jianshu with trepidation, waiting for her answer.
He had never been so nervous in his life.
Does Shushu like him? Will she accept his proposal? What if Shushu rejects her? Will he continue to pursue her relentlessly? Will this cause Shushu trouble?
"Take your time to think about it. There's still plenty of time at noon, so there's no rush." Gu Mingjing said.
He was worried that his words were too sudden and would scare her, and he was also afraid that she would refuse him out of desperation.
But even if he is rejected, he must ask the reason clearly to see if he can still make corrections and whether there is any room for recovery. Even if he is given up, he must be made to give up completely.
Jianshu thought for a long time and decided to tell Gu Mingjing what she was thinking truthfully and then let him decide whether he could accept it.
"Comrade Gu Mingjing, I am sure that I have a good impression of you, but I am not sure how much I like you.
We just met today, less than an hour together, and haven't had any in-depth contact. I know nothing about each other's past, temperament, interests, hobbies, behavior, etc.
Marriage is a very formal matter. Whether the personalities, habits, and values of both parties are compatible will have an impact on the marriage. We cannot make a hasty decision, otherwise it would be very irresponsible for both parties."
When Gu Mingjing first heard Jianshu say that she had a good impression of him, he almost jumped up with joy, and the curve of his mouth became bigger and bigger.
But as Jianshu spoke, Gu Mingjing became serious and listened to what she said carefully.
After Jian Shu finished speaking, Gu Mingjing asked, "So what do you mean?"
He was very clear about his own thoughts. He liked Jianshu, wanted to marry her, wanted to see her every day, and wanted to spend his whole life with her. This was something he had thought about seriously and would not change for any reason.
But Gu Mingjing was also happy about Jian Shu's seriousness. Doesn't this mean that she really wants to be with him? Otherwise, why would she consider all this?
Jian Shu spoke out her thoughts, "Comrade Gu Mingjing, I'm willing to date you with the goal of getting married. But I hope we don't get married right away. Let's try being together for a while and then decide whether to get married or separate. Do you agree?"
When Gu Mingjing heard Jianshu say that she was willing to date him with the intention of getting married, he almost fainted from joy and his mind went blank.
After hearing the following words, he quickly reacted.
"I agree, but there must be a time limit for the time we spend together. How long is the time limit?" Gu Mingjing asked directly without any hesitation.
Gu Mingjing had no objection to Jianshu's suggestion of not getting married for the time being and trying to get along for a while.
Jianshu was willing to consider it, not reject it outright. He was already very satisfied. This was much better than the worst-case scenario he had initially imagined. Wasn't it just a matter of waiting? He could wait! As long as they could get married, what did this little wait matter?
As for the possibility of separation mentioned by Jianshu, he selectively ignored it.
He has confidence in himself and believes that the two of them are absolutely compatible in every aspect. Even if they were originally incompatible, he will make them compatible.
The final decision will definitely be to get married, there will be no other choice.
But there must be a time limit for this. If it is too long, when will he be able to get married?
Jianshu never expected that Gu Mingjing would agree directly. Didn’t he even consider it?
After a moment's pause, Jian Shu thought for a moment and said, "Two years."
Four or five years is unlikely. By then, Gu Mingjing will be thirty years old, and it is impossible to drag it out that long.
A year is too short. Gu Mingjing is in the army, and the two of them are separated from each other. How much time can they spend together?
Two years is the result of Jianshu's compromise.
"No, two years is too long." Gu Mingjing was dissatisfied.
After that, he pretended to be pitiful and said to Jian Shu, "Shu Shu, I'm 24 this year. In two years, I'll be 26. If I get married by then, people my age will have children. Can you bear to make us wait that long?"
If Sheng Zhiye and the others heard what he said, they would definitely complain, "You just realized you're 24? You're so anxious now? What were you doing before? Didn't you not care?"
Looking at Gu Mingjing pretending to be pitiful, Jian Shu said helplessly, "It's not even two years yet. How can you be so sure you'll get married by then? Isn't it also possible that we'll go our separate ways?"
Didn't he hear what she meant earlier?
"We will definitely get married. I will listen to you in everything from now on. This way, we will definitely have no conflicts." Gu Mingjing said directly.
Jianshu was so shocked by his words that she almost agreed to marry him.
He listens to her in everything? This sentence is better than all the sweet words.
What woman doesn't want to find a man who listens to her? And this man is not only obedient, but also has top-notch looks, abilities, family background, and character.
Isn't this the husband every woman dreams of? She wouldn't even dare to do this in her dreams. It would be completely unjust to reject him.
