As long as they werenât some outrageous needs, they could be fulfilled.
They respected Wei Wucaiâs decision.
In addition, there could not be anyone better than Yan Zhiqing, so why would she have any complaints?
Dong Muping wasnât petty. She wasnât unhappy because Wei Wucai was siding with Yan Zhiqing.
She had never contributed much when Wei Wucai was growing up.
So, she didnât have the right to intervene too much.
In addition, Wei Wucai hadnât done anything wrong.
It was rare for him to find someone he liked.
Moreover, if a man didnât even know to protect his woman, what use did he have?
In Dong Mupingâs opinion, as she was a woman as well, she should take the womanâs side.
Why would she make a little girlâs life difficult?
âHowever, arenât you scared that I would be mad and nitpick here because you keep on protecting her?â Dong Muping asked, attempting to scare Wei Wucai.
However, Wei Wucai wasnât nervous at all.
He casually said, âWhat is there to be scared about? You are not someone like that, so I am not worried at all.â
Wei Wucai smiled and said, âI am more worried that you might treat Zhiqing too well and Zhiqing would end up being closer to you than me.â
âIf the two most important women to me donât pay any attention to me, how sad would that be?â Wei Wucai said.
This successfully made Dong Muping laugh.
Wei Wucai then seized the opportunity and said, âMom, I was inconsiderate. I canât believe I didnât tell you beforehand. However, even if I had told you beforehand, I would still be telling you today. After all, we have only just gotten together. It really wouldnât be too far back in the past.â
âYou must have been courting Zhiqing for a long time.â Dong Muping said, âI thought it was weird that you didnât deny the scandal with Zhiqing online.â
âYou should have told the family that you like someone. Because of that, I kept worrying about you.â Dong Muping complained.
âI wasnât confident, and I was worried that my courtship might end in failure.â Wei Wucai said with a bitter smile. âSo, I didnât dare to tell you.â
âIf I told you that I like someone, you would be very happy. But if I didnât successfully court her, wouldnât you be happy for nothing?â Wei Wucai said.
âAnyway, no matter what, you have your excuses,â Dong Muping said in an annoyed tone.
âAnyway, I have a girlfriend now. In addition, I am definitely marrying Zhiqing.â Wei Wucai said.
When Yan Zhiqing heard this, she smacked him on the arm.
This was just the first day of their relationship.
It barely even counted as the first day.
The two were working on set and had never been on an actual date before.
Because they were always working on set and were together every day.
So, even though they had never officially been on a date, they were already very familiar with each other.
They knew each otherâs habits and personalities very well.
There wouldnât be a conflict of personalities even after all these.
However, they had just officially started dating, so how could they be talking about marriage?!
Who knew what might happen?
Could Wei Wucai really be that confident?
Of course, Yan Zhiqing was more embarrassed than him.
Who talked about marriage so quickly?
Dong Muping couldnât help but curve the corner of her mouth up as she said, âStop bluffing. You were previously worried that you wouldnât be able to court her. Even if you wanted to, would she be willing to marry you?â
Wei Wucai was speechless.
Wei Wucai was silent for a while before he turned and asked Yan Zhiqing, âAre you willing to marry me?â
Yan Zhiqing didnât know what to say.
In front of so many people!
That wasnât a question you should ask on the first day of the relationship.
It was so casual and insincere.
As such, Yan Zhiqing didnât respond.
She humphed and turned her head away, refusing to look at him.
Wei Wucai then said on the phone with Dong Muping in a serious tone, âYou are right. I still have a long way to go.â
Dong Muping was speechless as well.
She felt as though it was a miracle that Wei Wucai was able to get Yan Zhiqing to be his girlfriend.
As for marriage, she didnât even dare to rush it.
She simply prayed that Yan Zhiqing wouldnât break up with Wei Wucai.
It was such a waste for this son to have such a pretty face.
Since he was so useless!
âOkay. Okay. Now you know what I mean.â Dong Muping said, âIs Zhiqing next to you?â
ââ¦â Wei Wucai was silent for a moment before he said, âYes.â
âCan I say a few words to Zhiqing?â Dong Muping didnât want to talk to her son anymore.
She just wanted to talk to her future daughter-in-law.
The two had never met before, but Wei Wucai already felt as though he would soon fall into disfavor.
Wei Wucai moved the phone far away and whispered to Yan Zhiqing, âMy mom wants to say a few words to you.â
âSure.â Yan Zhiqing agreed in a very natural and poised manner.
However, she was nervous.
After all, this was her first time talking to her future mother-in-law.
Pfft!
What future mother-in-law!
Yan Zhiqing got brainwashed by Wei Wucai.
She had yet to marry Wei Wucai.
Why should she call her future mother-in-law?!
Yan Zhiqing concluded that it was because she was too nervous that she thought of that.
She actually recalled that nonsense.
She nervously took the phone from Wei Wucai and said carefully, âHello, Auntie. I am Zhiqing. I am sorry I did not tell you that we started dating.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs alright,â Dong Muping responded swiftly.
If Wei Wucai had heard this, he would have commented on the difference in treatment.
âIt really was so sudden,â Dong Muping said.
When Yan Zhiqing heard that Dong Muping was being so empathic, she felt even more embarrassed. âWe should have visited you immediately, but we couldnât leave the set because of work. Thatâs why we couldnât visit you right away.â
âIn the end, you even had to call us yourself. That was inappropriate of us.â
âThatâs nothing,â Dong Muping said in a carefree tone, âWe are family. You donât have to be this courteous. Just treat me like a family member and donât worry about anything.â
âYou donât usually treat your family with such courtesy, right?â Dong Muping asked.
Yan Zhiqing smiled and admitted in silence.
Dong Muping then said, âThen you donât have to be this courteous with me. I know you canât come back just yet. I can just call you, and itâs the same. Itâs nothing major. You donât have to worry about it.â
âYou can wait with Xiao Cai on set and talk about this after the filming ends,â Dong Muping said.
âYou two just so happened to be in the same crew, and it will be easier for him to take care of you.â Dong Muping smiled and said, âIf he makes you mad, tell me. Donât hide it for his sake.â
âAnd donât you worry! I will not take Wei Wucaiâs side,â Dong Muping added.
âThank you, Auntie.â Yan Zhiqing immediately said with a very sweet smile on her face.
âBy the way, how did you twoââ
Dong Muping didnât even get to finish her sentence when Wei Wucai snatched the phone out of Yan Zhiqingâs hand.
Wei Wucai had very good hearing, and he obviously heard what Dong Muping was trying to ask.
If Dong Muping continued chatting like this, the conversation would never end.
