The boss of a wealthy family is too clingy, and the beautiful secretary wants to quit

Li Hao stood in front of the villa door and wiped the sweat from his forehead nervously.

He took a deep breath, tidied his appearance, and then rang the doorbell.

Xia Mingxi investigated Li Hao privately. Both his former military unit and his current workplace had high praise for him and his outstanding work ability.

What made him even more satisfied was that Li Hao's lifestyle was impeccable. He was honest, hardworking and responsible, which were the qualities he valued most in his future son-in-law.

After a while, Xia Rui came to open the door personally.

As soon as she saw Li Hao, a bright smile immediately broke out on her face. She excitedly threw herself into his arms and called out sweetly, "Ah Hao~"

The security guards at the door pursed their lips upon seeing this. Their professionalism allowed them to remain expressionless, but the smile in their eyes was hard to conceal.

In the living room, Xia Mingxi and Jiang Jingfei were already sitting there.

After entering and greeting each other, the two looked at Li Hao from time to time, and the topic ranged from work to life, from interests and hobbies to future plans.

During the conversation, it can be seen that the two are very satisfied with Li Hao.

After dinner, Jiang Jingfei took the initiative to bring up the topic of marriage.

She looked at Li Hao with a smile and asked, "Ah Hao, you and Rui Rui have been dating for such a long time, do you have any plans for the future?"

Xia Rui sat aside and looked at Li Hao nervously.

Li Hao held Xia Rui's hand, then looked at Jiang Jingfei and Xia Mingxi, and said seriously: "Uncle Xia, Aunt Jiang, I do have some ideas about my and Rui'er's future. First of all, I want to express that I am dating Rui'er with the intention of getting married."

He paused for a moment and continued, "Before getting married, I want to get a pre-marriage notarization."

As soon as these words were spoken, the three people who were originally immersed in the warm atmosphere were suddenly stunned.

Xia Rui looked at Li Hao in surprise. He had never discussed this matter with her before.

Jiang Jingfei and Xia Mingxi looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.

Xia Rui gently pulled Li Hao's hand and whispered, "Ah Hao, there's no need..."

Li Hao shook his head. "Rui Er, I know you may feel that this is a little awkward, but I think it is a guarantee for our future marriage. After all, we all come from different family backgrounds, so it is better to clarify some things in advance."

Jiang Jingfei was silent for a while, then nodded slowly: "I agree with Li Hao's suggestion. Although it sounds a bit inhumane, I think it is indeed a responsible behavior."

Xia Mingxi also nodded in agreement.

Jiang Jingfei asked: "Rui Rui said you want to buy a house on your own?"

Li Hao nodded. "I have some savings, and my family can help a little. It's not much, but it's enough for the down payment of a small house."

Jiang Jingfei chuckled, "Ah Hao, I want to say something that may hurt your self-esteem. What kind of house can you afford with your little money? How big a house can you buy?"

"Mom..." Xia Rui was very dissatisfied with what her mother said.

"Don't talk." Jiang Jingfei glanced at her.

Li Hao pursed his lips and said, "I have wronged Ruirui." Then he raised his head and looked into Jiang Jingfei's eyes, "I will work hard and try to get her a bigger house."

Jiang Jingfei smiled, "My daughter has been spoiled since she was young. During the time she lived in Xia Ying's house, the small room couldn't even hold her clothes. She had to drag her suitcase home to change clothes every now and then. I'm surprised she could do this for you."

Li Hao held Xia Rui's hand tightly, feeling mixed emotions. He knew that he couldn't give Xia Rui a good quality of life and had wronged her...

Jiang Jingfei looked at Li Hao, "Ah Hao, I only have this one daughter. She can obviously live a good life, why should she pay for your self-esteem..."

"Mom, didn't you agree that we can be together?" Xia Rui was almost crying.

Jiang Jingfei sighed to her daughter and said helplessly, "Did I tell you to break up? Can you wait for me to finish what I'm saying?"

Xia Rui pursed her lips and held Li Hao's hand tightly, fearing that he would run away.

Jiang Jingfei said to Li Hao: "I don't want my daughter to live in a cramped little house. I have a house under my name, not far from your workplace, so I thought that after you get married, you can just move in."

Li Hao fell into a brief silence.

He reflected on his previous thoughts.

He was indeed selfish, disregarding Xia Rui's quality of life for the sake of his own dignity.

It might take him ten years, or even longer, to earn enough money to buy a big house...

He couldn't bear to let Xia Rui suffer with him for so long.

A man's dignity does not only lie in whether he owns his own house, but also in whether he can provide a warm home for his loved ones.

He raised his head and looked at Jiang Jingfei, "Auntie, you are right. I really can't just consider my own dignity and ignore Ruirui's quality of life."

He paused and nodded. "My current financial situation really cannot allow Ruirui to live the best life. I agree with your proposal and am willing to live in the house under your name. At the same time, I will work harder to ensure that Ruier does not suffer any grievances."

Xia Mingxi said: "Ahao, I understand you, but husband and wife are one, and they should support each other."

Xia Rui nodded repeatedly. In fact, she didn’t care where she lived, as long as Li Hao was by her side.

Jiang Jingfei said: "Also, keep your wedding simple."

Li Hao was afraid that they would worry about not being able to afford it, so he quickly said, "I have prepared a budget for the wedding."

Jiang Jingfei shook her head gently, a hint of sadness in her eyes, and said with a wry smile: "That's not the case. Too many things have happened in our family in the past two years."

My eldest brother died, my mother was in prison...

Even though what they did was extremely unscrupulous, they were still her mother and brother...

Xia Rui suggested with a smile, "Let's travel and get married!"

Li Hao looked at her, "But, won't you feel regretful if there is no wedding?"

Xia Rui shook her head and smiled even more brightly, "I don't care about the wedding! As long as you are by my side, I will be the happiest bride. Besides, I think traveling to get married is more fun and freer."

Xia Mingxi said: "I also think Ruirui's suggestion is good. After all, getting married is all about the two of us being happy."

Xia Rui pulled Li Hao's arm, shook it gently, and said coquettishly: "Okay, okay, let's use the money for the wedding to travel and take beautiful wedding photos~

Li Hao patted her head lovingly and said softly, "It's up to you. Since you've made up your mind, let's go on a trip and get married."

After discussing the marriage, Xia Rui walked Li Hao to the door.

She smiled foolishly and said, "Hey, Xia Ying found the card you left in the shoe cabinet. It turns out you really had something to say before you left."

"You're so impatient." Li Hao smiled helplessly, pinched her nose, and opened the passenger door. "Let's go for a drive."

"Okay."
