Chapter 102: No rush to meet parents yet(1/2)
Chapter 103 No rush to meet parents yet
"In short, if you look at the situation of our family, I am confident that things will be better in the future, but it is true that life is not going smoothly at the moment."
After Li Muyang explained his situation, he did not try to hide it at all and made a sincere summary.
After hearing this, Lin Xiuli's expression didn't change much. She slowly tore up the remaining half of the pot helmet and soaked it in the mutton soup. She asked with a smile: "You know that your family's conditions are not good, how dare you
Are you in a hurry to ask someone to go on a blind date, aren't you afraid that people will look down on you?"
Li Muyang smiled and said: "To tell you the truth, I haven't dated anyone for a long time. If I hadn't met you last time, I might have been a bachelor for the rest of my life."
"Pfft, you're here again. I think you look quite honest. Why do you speak so glibly?"
Li Muyang shook his head.
"If you don't take every word I say as a joke, but believe that it comes from the most sincere meaning in my heart, will you still find it glib?"
Lin Xiuli was slightly startled and lowered her head to think.
He pursed his lips and smiled, "This is another glib statement."
Li Muyang did not flinch, "If it is true, then I can at least guarantee that if you marry into my family and have such a "glib tongue", I will only speak to you in my life.
"Who believes it..."
Lin Xiuli's face felt slightly hot.
She felt that it was a bit difficult to resist the man opposite her.
He is very talkative and always does things to make her happy. This is different from the blind date process she has seen before.
In the past, everyone would sit down, and soon they would look at each other favorably, and they would immediately get involved in the most primitive requirements for betrothal gifts and wedding leave.
You won’t be like them, talking for a long time and still not getting to the point.
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing her silence for a long time, Li Muyang asked softly.
"Ah...oh, nothing."
"Then why don't you say anything? What do you think of what I just said?"
"No idea."
Lin Xiuli subconsciously replied, but she felt a little regretful when she said it.
Compared with Li Muyang's frankness and straightforwardness, she seems a little less enthusiastic, mainly because she is really inexperienced and doesn't know how to deal with this situation.
According to what is said in novels and movies, when a man expresses affection for a woman, the woman cannot agree directly. Or at least, she cannot agree readily. Otherwise, the man will feel that the woman is easily available and he does not know how to cherish her.
Usually at this time, even if you don’t have any opinions in your heart, you still have to pretend to be still thinking, and you need to be more reserved.
I had to wait for the man to take the initiative many times before reluctantly agreeing.
In this way, men will cherish hard-won feelings more.
Therefore, she subconsciously adopted this "couple".
However, she did not expect that her move would be completely useless in front of Li Muyang.
When she was still reserved, Li Muyang heard her words and smiled directly: "Then you agree?"
"Ah... Agreed... Who agrees..."
"Just agree," Li Muyang took over. "The only thing left is to meet the parents. You can see when it is convenient. I will go see the elders and then finalize the date."
"Wait..."
Lin Xiuli shook her head repeatedly. What she wanted to say just now was, who agreed, but before she could say anything, Li Muyang cut her off.
He was good at cutting, and he cut right after the word "agree".
The second half of her rhetorical question was left unsaid.
"You said wait, because you are not in a hurry to see the two elders for the time being?"
"I..."
Lin Xiuli felt that her brain was a bit lacking, and her mouth suddenly became clumsy.
It seems that Li Muyang said a lot before she said anything.
If she doesn't agree, that's not the case.
But if I agree, I don’t seem to want to just accept it so easily.
She has been looking for a more suitable way of expression, but Li Muyang always says what he has to say, straight to the point.
There is absolutely no way to resist.
No.
If this continues, she will be completely defeated and will have no right to make suggestions.
"Well...Li Muyang, I have different ideas from you."
Li Muyang smiled slightly, "Okay, what do you think?"
"Hmm... what do you say?" Lin Xiuli used her chopsticks to gently stir the mutton soup in the bowl. The pieces of pot helmet and coriander green onion were stirred into a turbulent flow by the chopsticks, and they were gently rotating with the chopsticks.
"I think it is not a simple matter for two people to get along together, at least it cannot be solved by just meeting. We still need more contact and understanding.
For example, we must at least know each other's shortcomings and advantages, whether we can accept or tolerate the shortcomings, and whether we can continue to maintain the advantages.
I always feel that it must be difficult for two strangers to suddenly live in the same home. It doesn’t mean that we just became a family immediately after we moved from two homes to live under one roof.
I don’t know if you can understand my thoughts. If you don’t understand, I don’t blame you. I also think that this kind of thinking will seem a bit vain when told to others, but that’s what I think in my heart..."
After Lin Xiuli said a lot, she glanced at Li Muyang's eyes. She was worried that Li Muyang's eyes showed surprise, surprise, and even disdain. In that case, she would be at a loss.
Maybe he will give an explanation and adjust his thinking slightly, which means bowing to reality.
Or maybe, just throw down the mutton soup and turn around and leave.
After all, she was the first to say such shocking words, so you can’t blame others.
However, she saw no disdain or disgust in Li Muyang's eyes.
There are indeed some surprises.
But the surprise only faded away.
He said inexplicably: "It turns out they are indeed not different."
"Um, what did you say?"
"Oh, I think what you said is very reasonable and well said. Living a life for two people is indeed like what you said. It involves a lot of issues. Do you want to live a life together? It's not like you're just matching chickens. You can just find anyone."
Li Muyang nodded, "I understand what you mean. I'm not in a hurry. We still have enough time to get to know each other. After we get to know each other, you can decide whether you are willing to live with me."
"Can you really understand my thoughts?"
Lin Xiuli was surprised, very surprised.
Just ask if you retort.
Li Muyang thought that if they were on a blind date in his previous life, he would not understand it. At that time, he was just a poor boy who had never seen the world.
Now, he has seen a freer love model.
In comparison, Lin Xiuli's need for mutual understanding is just the most primitive state of free love.
Of course he can accept it.
What he was curious about was that when he was on a blind date with Lin Xiuli in his previous life, she was not like this, nor did she raise this awareness of free love.
Now two years ahead of the previous timeline, she is younger and her thoughts are completely different from those two years later.
Does this mean that her character has undergone a huge change within two years?
I don’t know what kind of setbacks she suffered that made her completely transform from a young woman who was biased towards literature and art into a good wife and loving mother.
This is a variable.
The meaning of what Li Muyang blurted out when he heard Lin Xiuli's thoughts just now was that he didn't expect that Lin Xiuli also had a side that he didn't understand.
So for all these years, has she not expressed her true thoughts for the sake of her family, husband and children?
And Li Muyang himself, because of the high pressure in life, has never seriously communicated with his wife about his inner affairs.
He didn't know that maybe behind his wife's virtuousness, she also suppressed many unspeakable things.
And these things might be the reasons for her early death.
A person will hide things in his heart all his life and be under tremendous pressure, and he will definitely become depressed and ill.
Getting sick is a normal thing.
"I accept it. Your ideas are consistent with mine in some aspects."
"Really?"
Lin Xiuli is unbelievable.
