Fall in love with your enemy

Chapter 123 Proposal

Take the last chapter and read it silently to send me home.

We were speechless all the way. I originally had many questions to ask him, but when I saw his face that was lost for some reason in the rearview mirror, I couldn't ask any more questions. I relaxed and leaned against the car window slumped.

I felt sleepy as soon as I got in the car. I squinted for a while. When I woke up, I read silently and put my coat on my body.

I opened my eyes and looked at him. He lowered his head again and took back his hand.

"I wanted to... if you're sleepy, I'll rest for a while and call you again." He retracted into the driver's seat.

I smiled faintly: "No, I just got up early this morning. It doesn't matter. I'm here. Since you're here, why don't we have lunch together before leaving." I said, unbuckled my seat belt and put on my clothes. Hand it back to silent reading.

Du Du shook his head silently, took the clothes and pondered for a while before finally looking up: "Forget it about eating, but my mother told me that I should come to Fu's house to say hello to the elders when I have free time. I wonder if it's convenient for Uncle Fu and the others today?"

"It's convenient, come with me." I got out of the car and asked Silent Reader to follow me.

It was to say hello, but rather to ask the kid Mo Du to come over and apologize, so that the old man wouldn't mind it so much.

Rather than letting silent reading face it alone another day, it would be better to have me by your side today, and no matter how angry Old Fu is, he won’t say anything. Fortunately, because of my health, they, no matter how busy they are these days, During meal time, he would come back to supervise my eating.

The garage is in the basement, and the wind is still quite strong. I just stretched out my hand to block it, and the jacket I was wearing was already on me.

"Be careful, you catch a cold." Mo Du said softly.

Be careful again. Not long after we met, he had already told me to be careful many times. It seemed like I should really take care of myself, so I nodded politely.

When I walked out of the garage, I saw Aunt Liu and the housekeepers coming out from a distance happily: "The eldest lady is back! Come on, the husband, the second master and the third master are all waiting for you inside."

I was a little confused. Although there were usually people waiting at the door to help me carry my things, today the battle was a bit too big.

Just as I was thinking about it, Aunt Liu had already arrived.

"Auntie, are there any guests at home today?" I asked, looking towards the silent reading side intentionally or unintentionally.

Only then did Aunt Liu notice the silent reading and pointed at him with some embarrassment: "Miss, this is..."

"Hello, my name is Lin Modu. My mother asked me to come and say hello to Uncle Fu." Before I could say anything, Modu introduced himself.

The aunt's face became even more embarrassed, "Ah... it may not be convenient today."

"Who's coming?" I asked.

After hearing what I said, Aunt Liu smiled broadly. The housekeeper behind her thought she was too busy, so she quickly pushed her away and answered: "I want to congratulate you, Miss. The Gao family came to propose marriage and are already in the living room. Sir, I am sure he wants to keep them for lunch today." Yes, miss, please go in quickly, I’m waiting for you! You don’t know, the betrothal gifts sent by the Gao family are piled up in the whole yard, and this is it..."

The butler was still talking, but I couldn't listen to a word anymore.

Propose marriage? got engaged? He just told me yesterday that he wanted to leave for a while. Which sentence is true and which sentence is false...

It's not that I don't want to see him, but I can't say why.

Or as Brother Zhao once said, I am not someone who can obey others.

After I got together with him, everything was decided by him and I obeyed, forgetting small things, but this was a marriage, and he never discussed it with me.

My mind went blank. I could no longer hear what the outside world said. I only knew that Gao Xinci wanted to marry me. It was so sudden. Although it could only be an engagement at this age, it was enough to make me depressed for a while.

"Miss? Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"Miss Fu?"

I didn't calm down until Silent Reading touched my shoulder. His eyes were full of worry.

I took a deep breath before replying: "I'm fine, it's just...it happened so suddenly, I was a little scared." After that, I turned to look at Aunt Liu and the housekeeper: "Who is here from the Gao family?"

Aunt Liu hadn't recovered from the scene just now. She was lightly beaten by the housekeeper before she quickly responded: "Oh, it's Chairman Gao and Mr. Gao. I'm not very familiar with the rest of them. I can't tell who they are. They should be more closely related." The nearest nephews all came to carry the betrothal gift, eh! When the first betrothal gift was brought in, everyone was shocked! It was a wild goose carved from wood, so exquisite! You will definitely like it when you see it. It is in the backyard now Leave it alone.”

"I've seen it."

The maple leaves in the courtyard were blown down and floated on the surface of the pond, supporting the dragonflies, but the water surface rippled.

I have seen that wood carving. In his last life, Gao Xinci also used it as a betrothal gift. He said that in ancient times there was a custom of sending betrothal geese to marry his wife, but now it is really difficult to give away wild geese, but wild geese are very infatuated birds. My son, he liked the meaning of this custom. He accidentally learned about wood carving and went to learn it himself. This pair of wild geese is the best work he has completed. He gave it to me, hoping that we will never be separated until we grow old together.

I just didn’t expect that Dayan would be married so early. He had really planned to marry me for a long time. I really can’t describe how I feel. I can only feel suffocated.

Seeing that I was sad, Mo Du couldn't help but stretched out his hand to help me. He originally wanted to hold my hand, but his fingertips trembled, so he finally moved back and grabbed my wrist through his clothes.

"It's such an important thing, why don't I go back first and come back another day when Uncle Fu is free." Mo Du said in a low voice.

I hammered my heart hard, and it took me a while to catch my breath. First, I patted the back of Mo Du's hand: "No, just for today." Then I turned to the housekeeper and others: "Mo Du is my adoptive mother's child, so it should be me. My brother, the Gao family came to betroth me, and it’s appropriate for someone from my adoptive mother’s family to get me married.”

"But Miss..."

"Okay, stop talking. I have my own plan. I'll tell the kitchen to add a set of cutlery." I tried my best to smile, "Okay, I'm going to the living room."

After saying that, I took Mo Du's wrist and motioned for him to come in.

He looked uneasy, but in the end he didn't say anything.

It's really ridiculous. My fiancé in my previous life will be my brother in this life to witness my engagement.

Forget it, I am a very ridiculous person anyway.

I thought that if I could let Silu watch me get engaged, maybe I could really stop thinking about him.

The door opened, and under the leadership of the housekeeper, I went all the way to the living room with silent reading. The living room was full of people, many of whom I only knew by name, and I still don’t know which relatives they were. Every time Gao Xinci told me one by one.

There was no room to sit on the sofa, and moving chairs seemed too abrupt. It was probably my mother-in-law's order, so all the juniors were standing. Only she and the old man were sitting on the sofa, and the space became much larger in an instant.

Gao Xinci stood beside her and turned around immediately when he heard the sound outside the entrance.

"Shishi!" Gao Xinci called me with a slight smile, but was soon slapped lightly on the back of his hand by his mother-in-law with a stern face.

The mother-in-law sat upright and said softly: "Xin Ci, pay attention to your words and deeds."

"Since you want to marry our family Shi Shi, we will be a family from now on. No need to be so formal." The old man lowered his head, with a kind expression on his face. He pointed at me: "Xin Ci, Shi Shi, it's been a long time." When we’re gone, let’s go to the backyard and talk for a while.”

Gao Xinci's face was full of joy, but before he could say thank you, I interrupted him: "No, dad." I walked up behind the old man with a stiff smile, and put my hands on his shoulders: "Xin and I Ci... I saw him yesterday, and I said what I wanted to say."

"Really? Why didn't I hear you mention it?" Old Fu was surprised.

"There's nothing to say..." My voice gradually dropped. The old man was not very happy when he saw me like this, and now he even lost his face. He pinched my palm and glared at Gao Xinci.

"Shishi, are you quarreling again?" My mother-in-law looked worried and stretched out her hand to ask me to come over.

I looked up at Gao Xinci's expression, and sure enough, he also changed from surprise to disappointment, feeling sad.

My heartbeat seemed to have stopped for a moment, and I really wanted to turn back time.

I pinched my knuckles hard and my skin turned white. I made up my mind and stepped forward to hold my mother-in-law's hand: "No, aunt, I just think that he has been too busy recently and has no time to accompany me. I will think that he is Forget me."

"That's not the case!" Gao Xinci immediately raised his head, looking panicked. When he was about to say something else, he was interrupted again.

"Of course I know it's not the case." I considered the pros and cons, and dug my cold fingertips into his warm palm, "You can't even make a joke, it's just a description. If you don't want me to say it again, then hurry up and find more time. Stay with me for a while.”

"I will!" Gao Xinci squeezed my hand and said firmly.

"Congratulations to Miss Fu and Mr. Gao." Mo Du said politely.

Only then did everyone notice the existence of silent reading, or in other words, they had already noticed it, and only then did they have time to entertain.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are reading silently, right?" Old Fu changed his cold expression and became very angry when he saw silent reading.

Silently read and bowed: "Yes, Uncle Fu, my mother told me that you are kind to our family. She told me to come back to Linjiang to express my gratitude. I just happened to be sending Miss Fu back today. I heard there was a happy event, so I came in to join in the fun, I hope Uncle Fu won't blame me."

"How could it be? Shu Yuan is Shi Shi's adoptive mother. She brought Shi Shi to such an old age. It's not too late for us to thank you. You are Shi Shi's brother, so it's only right that you come. Please stay for lunch." Old Fu gestured to Shao Qin behind him. Immediately come forward and please read silently and sit on the empty small sofa on the right.

After reading my eyes silently, I motioned for him to sit down.

Although the juniors are all standing at this time, they are the juniors of the Gao family, and the Fu family is the head family. Silent reading is now counted as the Fu family, so naturally they can sit down, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that even the adopted son I sat down to read silently, which was not considered a silent reading. It was a bit disrespectful to the Gao family, but I couldn't argue with what the old man meant.

"Sidu, you look so much like that kid from Xiaoxiao." Old Fu said with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Fu, for the compliment." Mo Du bowed sensibly.

Lao Fu was very interested in Silent Reading's answer, and then asked: "Why do you want to say thank you?"

"Because Uncle Fu said that my brother has a good appearance and an upright character. You said that I look like him. This is an indirect compliment in every aspect. You can give me such a good comment, so of course I want to thank you. "Read silently and answer questions fluently.

The old man finally laughed out loud. Although he couldn't say he disliked or liked the look in his eyes when he looked at Mo Du, he looked better than Gao Xinci from any angle.

But thinking back on my last life, Lao Fu didn't like reading silently. It seemed that he was just trying to show off his power to Gao Xin. I sighed.

Fortunately, I stopped reading silently and didn't say any more. I turned around and said good things about my mother-in-law again, and finally gave her blessings.

The two were harmonious and happy. He read silently and looked at me as if he wanted to please me. I expressed my gratitude to him.

Gao Xinci lowered his eyebrows and rubbed my palm with his fingertips. Unfortunately, I still didn't know how to face him. I gently retracted my hand and placed it on my flat belly, the corners of my eyes were sore.

"Are you still blaming me?" Gao Xinci whispered in my ear.

"No." I simply replied, reaching out to straighten the tie in front of him, "Don't think blindly, I'm just sick and have no energy. Don't leave today. You've been working and you can't do it well even if you're too tired. Take a day off.”

"it is good……"

I could hear that he was choked up, but I still couldn't think of a way to persuade myself.

"Let's eat." My second uncle, who had been silent all this time, spoke. I turned around and he smiled kindly at me, then turned to my mother-in-law: "It's getting late. We haven't gotten married yet. Director Gao should be more polite, as it is better not to leave the guests hungry."

These words had such humorous meanings that the mother-in-law couldn't help but smile: "Brother Fu, please don't make fun of me. Now our family is asking for Shishi to marry. Even if you are rude, we can understand it. Who is willing to give it to me?" The girl is going out."

"Yes, Shi Shi is the apple of my elder brother's eye. Of course, he is also the heartthrob of us uncles. We must be reluctant to part with him. But as long as Xin Ci treats Shi Shi well, we have nothing to say." The uncle said, for some reason, look at me There was a hint of worry in his eyes, but fortunately it passed quickly. The uncle pointed at Gao Xinci: "Boy, do you understand?"

"I will definitely treat Shi Shi well, and I will listen to whatever she says in the future." Gao Xinci intertwined our fingers and raised our hands levelly.

"So, the Fu family has agreed to give my family Xin Ci?" In addition to being polite, the mother-in-law finally had a hint of joy in her eyes.

But it was extinguished in less than three seconds.

The old man was silent and glanced at the eyes of his second uncle and his younger uncle. The second uncle signaled to his younger uncle. The younger uncle raised his eyebrows and said: "The Gao family proposed marriage too suddenly. Although our family has no objection to Xin Ci's child, it's just like this Please agree, it’s not appropriate no matter what, so let’s give it three days and we’ll think about it.”

"Do you still need to consider it?" The mother-in-law looked a little more worried, with a smile on her face.

The uncle wanted to laugh when he heard this: "Dong Gao has never been a mother to his daughter, so he probably doesn't know very well. Just imagine that the treasure you hold in your hands is to be given away to someone else's home. You will be reluctant to part with it. Said these three days are too short, otherwise..."

"Ming Yan is right! I was negligent and should consider it." My mother-in-law quickly interrupted my uncle's words. She was sweating profusely. I wanted to wipe it for her. She smiled apologetically: "It's always good like this. Daughter-in-law, I should have put more thought into it. I also hope that Brother Fu, Second Brother and Ming Yan will not blame me. I just want to give up on this child. Not to mention being a daughter’s mother, I am also neglectful towards my son and my son. When it comes to proposing marriage, It’s really lacking.”

"It doesn't matter. This is the first time in our family that a daughter is marrying. If the marriage really happens, we will be one family, and one family will not speak the same language." Old Fu said to ease the situation.

My mother-in-law smiled and bowed slightly, then walked up to me with a smile and took my hand from Gao Xinci.

"Shi Shi, don't blame Auntie for not telling you in advance. I hope I didn't scare you. The same goes for you, Xin Ci. If you treat Shi Shi better, are you still worried about Shi Shi blaming you?"

"Yes, Mom, I will be good to you from time to time." Gao Xin responded.

My mother-in-law is still looking at me, but she is usually a gentle mother-in-law, but today I look at her with something indescribably weird.

My mother-in-law held my hand suddenly tighter: "Xin Ci is my only child. You have always known that I have neglected to care for him for so many years. Fortunately, during this period, you took care of him a lot for my aunt. He It is also rare to ask me to do something, which is to marry you. No matter how difficult it is, once he asks, Auntie will definitely make it happen for him."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
