Chapter 2286: Just Praising Han Zhuoling
“That definitely won’t happen.” s.h.i.+ Nancang laughed as he said, “Mom, your imagination is really wild. How can you even think of this? When Xiaoya called me, she was in a very good mood. She didn’t sound like she fell out of love at all.
“Anyway, even if they broke up, not like it’d be a big deal. Our Xiaoya doesn’t lack suitors. There are so many people who like her. In the past, when Xiaoya was single, there were always people who asked me about her. But I had to figure them out first.”
s.h.i.+ Nancang continued, “This and that and every aspect of them, especially those whose private lives are not disciplined enough, I already pa.s.sed them off.
“Afterward, when Xiaoya got together with Han Zhuoling, that man was way too cunning. He’d publicly announced it in a high-profile manner, letting everyone know that Xiaoya was already his woman. That’s why no one dares to ask me about Xiaoya now.”
s.h.i.+ Nancang took a sip of tea and said, “But some things, you have to try for yourself. Let’s say Xiaoya was dating someone else right now, I bet there’d still be many people who’d want to woo her. As the saying goes, as long as the hoe is employed well, there is no corner that can’t be dug. Those people, they are just scared of Han Zhuoling, so they don’t dare to ask.”
Du Yiqin laughed and praised, “Zhuoling is really impressive.”
“…” s.h.i.+ Nancang replied helplessly, “Mom, I’m saying all this to tell you that, actually, Xiaoya is really very popular. It’s not for you to praise Han Zhuoling.”
“I know Xiaoya is popular,” Du Yiqin said. “Our Xiaoya has always been popular, as far back as kindergarten.
“But why don’t those people dare to have designs on Xiaoya anymore? Isn’t it because Zhuoling is too awesome?” Du Yiqin praised. “So, I hope that Xiaoya can walk together with Zhuoling for a long, long time. Leaving Xiaoya with him makes me feel a.s.sured. With him around, no one can think of bullying Xiaoya.”
s.h.i.+ Nancang: “…”
Why was it that whenever she spoke, she’d end up praising Han Zhuoling again?
Du Yiqin was just praising Han Zhuoling to the skies now!
As the three of them chatted, the doorbell rang again.
This time, it was indeed Han Zhuoling who came back with s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
The auntie opened the door and waited for them at the entrance.
She’d also heard Du Yiqin and s.h.i.+ Guanzhong’s conversation just now, so she smiled as she said, “Madam, Young Missy and Mr. Han are here. The two of them look very loving. You don’t need to worry.”
Du Yiqin then really heaved a sigh of relief.
Not long after they spoke, Han Zhuoling and s.h.i.+ Xiaoya entered through the door.
While the two of them were changing their shoes, s.h.i.+ Guanzhong and his wife, as well as s.h.i.+ Nancang, had not noticed yet that s.h.i.+ Xiaoya had an extra ring on her finger.
And then the two sat down opposite them, and Han Zhuoling held s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s hand out of habit.
It just so happened that Han Zhuoling sat on s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s left side, so the hand he held was her left one, which had the ring on it.
s.h.i.+ Nancang’s eyes were the sharpest, and he was the first to notice it.
He immediately pointed to s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s hand and exclaimed, “What are you wearing on your hand!”
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya: “…”
What do you mean what?
Because of s.h.i.+ Nancang’s words, s.h.i.+ Guanzhong and Du Yiqin both looked over as well.
They instantly saw the ring on s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s finger.
“Oh my!” Du Yiqin exclaimed in surprise.
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya smiled sweetly and said, “I called Older Brother over today as well because I wanted to tell you all about this. Zhuoling proposed to me.”
Du Yiqin covered her mouth with her hand in agitation, tears welling up in her eyes.
It’s true that Han Zhuoling had already expressed his wish to marry s.h.i.+ Xiaoya since the first time he visited them.
And each time he came, he did not hide his intention and always wanted to bring it up.
But to be honest, no one took him seriously.
