“Cheng Jie, when do you plan to come to our house to propose?”
As soon as Lin Yueming finished speaking, the shrimp meatball that Yan Chengjie had just put in his mouth suddenly fell out. Even the lobster meat that Lin Yaru was about to swallow almost got stuck in her throat, turning her face red.
“What... what? Sorry, Uncle Lin, could you please repeat that... I didn’t catch it just now.” Yan Chengjie hurriedly picked up the fallen shrimp meatball, forcing a smile on his handsome face.
“Our Xiaoru is not young anymore. I think... I need to find a good day soon to hold a grand engagement Banquet for you two and take the opportunity to announce your wedding date. Your parents are no longer around, so it’s entirely up to me and your Aunt Lin.”
Lin Yueming was overjoyed, happily planning in his mind, completely unaware of the shocked and pale faces of Yan Chengjie and Lin Yaru.
“Dad, I haven’t known Yan Chengjie for long; this is too fast!” Lin Yaru exclaimed, pressing her hand against her chest. After finally swallowing the lobster meat that had been stuck in her throat, she quickly voiced her objection.
Oh God! Who can save her! How did things turn out like this?
She just wanted to bring a boyfriend home for her dad and Mom to see so that she could live peacefully from then on. What was happening? How could this cliché scenario of fake becoming real happen to her?!
“Yes! Uncle Lin, I think my career has just started; I still need a few more years…” It was clear that Yan Chengjie was also flustered; his handsome face showed signs of distress.
“Xiaoru, you’re already twenty-six. Do you want to wait until you’re forty before thinking about getting married?” Lin Yueming turned around and scolded his daughter sternly before turning back to Yan Chengjie, smiling calmly as he said:
“Cheng Jie, with your global branches and the scale of your international business operations, if you still say your career has just begun, then I’m afraid more than half of the companies in our country are just playing house.”
"This..." But his task was only for tonight! How could he agree to such an absurd request?!
"Alright, since you two lovebirds have no objections, I think we should hold a small engagement party next Saturday to announce the good news." Heh, it seems he has more work to do. The authority of the Lin family has made a decisive call, determining their lifelong matters.
Lin Yaru anxiously glanced at Yan Chengjie, who was busy with the food, and felt a deep obligation to help him escape from this chaotic situation.
"Dad! We're not in a hurry..."
"You may not be in a hurry, but us old folks are quite anxious." Lin Yueming shot an annoyed glance at his clueless daughter. Such a good catch, and she didn't even know how to seize the opportunity! He was still helping her!
"Xiaoru, I think we should go along with your father's wishes. We are very satisfied with Cheng Jie; you must cherish such a good husband candidate." Lin Mother chimed in, supporting her husband’s thoughts.
"Mom, you don't understand the situation..."
"Silly girl, how could Mom not understand? I know that making such significant decisions can make girls feel nervous and uneasy. However, every girl must experience this at least once in her life!"
