Chapter 331 - Afraid that She’ll Refuse (2)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
Ch.331 Afraid that Sheâll Refuse (2)
Grandpa Shen was not in good health. He stood up on crutches and said to Mother Su very solemnly: âDear In-law, Iâm really sorry for before. These two children didnât notify you when they got married. At that time, it was because I was really sick and I was afraid that I couldnât make it through, so I forced Xiuqi to get married. At that time, they two got married in a hurry and didnât have anything ready, not even a wedding banquet. Xiu Qi kept saying that after Iâm all well, heâll arrange for the wedding banquet, that is why itâs been delayed for so long. I am very sorry. Now that they get along well with each other, with a child on the way and also your arrival, I decided to come today. Actually, I wanted to ask if there was anything that you wanted to request for, we will compensate you with whatever that you guys deserve, weâll not be as rude as before.â
Mother Su must have had some objections before, but now that Sun Qin had apologized to her, and Grandpa Shen came to apologize. Even if she did have some sort of an opinion on them, it was all gone, and she said: âIn fact, there is nothing that we need, as long as they get along well. Grandpa, youâre being too polite.â
Although Mother Su didnât hold on to the matter anymore, Grandpa Shen still felt that something should be done. He quickly asked his assistant to take out a box that he had prepared and handed it to Mother Su. He said sincerely, âThis is what I should have given you guys, you must accept it.â
Although she didnât know what was in the box, but just by looking at the box, she knew that it was something very valuable. Mother Su wanted to refuse, âThisâ¦â¦â
Shen Xiuqi hurriedly said: âMom, just accept it. Itâs what we should have given you. We didnât pass it to you before, but now we can make up for it. I hope that you wonât turn a cold shoulder.
Su Yaya also pulled on Mother Suâs hand and said, âJust take it, or grandpa and the others will feel uneasy.â
Everyone asked Mama Su to just accept the gift, and so she did.
The whole family then sat down and chatted away happily.
Grandpa Shen suddenly looked at Shen Xiuqi and asked, âWhen are you going to have the wedding? Now that I am in good health, I can help you out.â
Shen Xiuqi, who was named, looked at Su Yaya and said with a serious expression: âIâm open to holding it anytime, it depends on what Yaya thinks of it.â
Su Yaya was under everyoneâs stare, she felt that Shen Xiuqi had threw the question to her, she refused to take the question and said: âAlthough I am pregnant now and you are the father of the baby, but you also promised me that weâll get married after youâve passed the assessment, and you havenât proposed to me. That last proposal doesnât count!â
When Grandpa Shen heard that this was because his grandson hadnât satisfied his grand daughter-in-law yet, he hurriedly scolded Shen Xiu with a stern face: âYou rascal, all you have in mind is for her to marry you, how dare you not propose, how shameful!â
Shen Xiuqi, who was scolded as being a rascal, felt wronged. He didnât dare to refute, so he could only reply honestly: âArenât I already preparing for it? Iâll do it soon, okay?â
Sun Qin then said, âYou canât possibly do it in a place like this, you should at least be ready, itâll show your sincerity!â
Grandpa Shen agreed with Sun Qin and said: âYes, your mother is right, donât you dare be careless about this, and just deal with it so sloppily, whatever happened in the past stays in the past, but not this time, you should think things through yourself! â
Shen Xiuqi looked at his family who was lecturing him and he somehow felt like he was the son-in-law here, he wasnât there to get married, he was being evaluated on whether he would make a good son-in-law instead!
But even so, he still nodded, to show that he had kept their words in mind, that he would plan an amazing and grand proposal, Yaya will for sure be satisfied.
Su Yaya was covering her mouth next to him as she laughed, she had never met Grandpa Shen before, she didnât know that Grandpa Shen was such a good person! Seeing Shen Xiuqi being scolded, why did she feel good about it? Hahahaha.
When they got home after dinner, Mother Su pulled Su Ya Ya to the side and asked, âHow do you honestly feel?â
Su Yaya tilted her head and thought for a while before saying, âItâs not about what I think. Shen Xiuqi didnât do a good job before, he should be tested. Didnât you think the same way before? Weâll talk about it after he proposes.â
âBut your belly is going to get bigger.â Mother Su was a little worried.
Su Yaya smiled and said, âItâs not like we have to have our wedding right now. Itâll be the same after giving birth. You guys said that Shen Xiuqi made me suffer a lot in the past, so we should get back our fair share now right?â
When Mama Su heard her say this, she didnât know what to say, and sighed: âForget it, you decide.â
Su Yaya comforted Mother Su, âDonât worry, I know what Iâm doing.â
Mother Su knew that Su Yaya had her ways, her words wouldnât change anything, so she nodded and just let her be.
After a while, Su Yaya returned to the room, and saw Shen Xiuqi just standing there, so she raised her eyebrows and asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
Shen Xiuqi looked at her and said: âYaya, is there something that you donât like about me, just tell me and Iâll correct it.â
Su Yayaâs eyes widened, âWhatâs the matter? Why are you asking me this?â
Shen Xiuqi said solemnly: âIâm scared that Iâm not doing a good job, so I want to do better and satisfy you.â
Heâs afraid that sheâll refuse his proposal.
Ha ha ha ha!
Su Yaya suddenly thought of the crux of the problem, and gracefully turned around before sitting in the chair next to him. She remembered the classic lines in âThe Lion Roarsâ, and pointed at him: âThen listen carefully, Iâll recite it once, just repeat after me.â
âFrom now on, you are only allowed to love me, spoil me, to be honest with me, to keep all your promises, and to be sincere in everything that you say to meâ¦â¦â
