An unknown light flashed in Zhan Yifan's eyes. The hand supporting his chin paused slightly, and a hint of displeasure clearly flashed across his face. Mint put down his hand and rested it on the table, but kept looking at Zhan Yifan, indicating that

She is waiting for an answer.

Zhan Yifan narrowed his eyes, hiding all the sternness in his eyes. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea before looking up at Mint, tapping his fingers on the table and saying: "You know how we were fingered

For marriage?"

After a while, he didn't answer her question.

Mint didn't speak, and Zhan Yifan didn't seem to want to listen to her answer, but continued brightly: "I came to Yunhai City with my mother when I was five years old. In fact, I don't know much about what happened at that time. What happened?

Is it cloudy or sunny, or day or night? But I remember there was a very classic pavilion, next to it was a pond, the pond was full of lotus flowers, and the word "lotus" in your name

Exactly the same lotus. I can’t remember what your mother looked like, but in my memory she was a gentle and spring-warm person who was very kind to me. Your mother was pregnant with you at that time, holding her head straight.

The belly is about... six months old. My mother and your mother were chatting and looking at the lotus flowers by the pond. They didn't know what they were talking about, but they were very happy anyway. Then my mother suddenly pulled me and pointed at your mother's belly.

Belly says

'Yifan, the baby in your aunt's belly is your future wife, you must remember it'! I was so young at that time and didn't know what a daughter-in-law was. But my mother often nagged and reminded me in my ear.

, so that I gradually understood this word when I was in elementary school. I went from resistance to hate, from hate to rebellion, from rebellion to now acceptance and calmness. I want you to understand that my mother’s expectations for you are two

Eighteen years, and I, Zhan Yifan, have been dominated by my mother and have been waiting for you for twenty-eight years. Even if you don’t want the wedding to happen so soon, you should understand her painstaking efforts! She never planned to let me

Even if I marry another woman, I will never let any woman get close to me! So no matter what she did or said, it was all out of expectation for you, and there was absolutely no intention of...disrespecting you!"

Zhan Yifan rarely spoke so many words. Mint looked at him blankly, listening to his words, and then watching his mouth move and open, and suddenly felt very guilty.

His mother had been looking forward to her for twenty years, and he had been dominated by his mother and looked forward to her for twenty-eight years.

Mint felt that maybe she was too selfish and only thought about herself. This guilt was undoubtedly aroused by Zhan Yifan's words. If she was not sure whether to marry Zhan Yifan before, then now she

I really feel that... I really should marry the man in front of me. Where in the world is there anyone who looks forward to me more than their family?

"I'm sorry." Mint lowered her head, and she suddenly understood the meaning of what Zhan Yifan said before, 'Marrying me is your destiny!'

At that time, Mint only thought that he was too arrogant and arrogant, but now she suddenly understood. He had also struggled, and he had struggled to get rid of this engagement for twenty-eight years that she had no idea about, although it was really a bit confusing.

It's ridiculous, but Mint doesn't know that because of him, someone has been struggling for twenty-eight years, but in the end he just compromised. Isn't this also his fate?

Mint suddenly felt that Zhan Yifan was even more pitiful than herself. She had only recently learned about the existence of this engagement, and she was panicking and even struggling. If the person was not him, she would not know how to face it calmly.

"If you don't want to do it now... I can actually make it clear to your mother. It's just an engagement..." Mint felt that she was still too selfish. Maybe she should let the man in front of her be free.

"There is nothing more despairing than the feeling of being suddenly disappointed after looking forward to it for twenty-eight years." Zhan Yifan glanced at Mint, "So our marriage is the most logical outcome."

Mint paused and thought of the noble lady she met yesterday. She was really passionate about her. Although they had only spent a little time together, she could tell that she was truly passionate about her. And she...

He really couldn't bear to let her down, so Zhan Yifan married him entirely out of a desire

Helpless filial piety? Mint felt a little depressed when she thought of this, but then she thought that her motivation for marrying Zhan Yifan still had most of her parents' factors. Mint's crisis, Mint did take it into consideration,

Although its own factors also exist, it cannot be said to be completely clean.

Mint was relieved quickly and just buried his head without looking at Zhan Yifan.

Until the porridge was served, the thick preserved egg and lean meat porridge was placed in front of her. Large chunks of preserved eggs and shredded lean meat were floating on the surface. Mint was indeed a little hungry. Suddenly, a piece of chicken fell on her

In the bowl, Mint raised his head, and the man opposite was picking up the chicken with chopsticks.

Mint was stunned: "Don't you eat chicken..."

"Well, I won't eat it." Zhan Yifan answered while choosing.

Mint pursed her lips. Among all the meats, her favorite was chicken, but because she liked preserved eggs, she ordered lean meat with preserved eggs. So Mint pushed her bowl towards Zhan Yifan and waited.

He almost gave her all the chicken choices before she pushed the bowl back and asked curiously: "Then why do you still order mushroom and chicken porridge?"

"Because I like mushrooms and I can tolerate the smell of chicken, but I can't eat chicken." Zhan Yifan answered honestly.

Mint is ashamed, what kind of answer is this?

Neither of them mentioned the matter of getting married anymore. They just kept their heads down while eating, each eating his or her own food. Neither of them was used to talking while eating.

While eating, all the dishes were served. Mint was indeed hungry, and he finished all the porridge in his bowl in a short while. After wiping his mouth, his stomach was bloated and he didn't want to move. Mint felt very hot, and before eating, she

I just put Zhan Yifan's coat in the car, so even though it was hot, I had nothing to take off. I could only lie on my back and wait for the temperature to slowly drop.

After Zhan Yifan finished eating, he pointed the phone outside and went out to make a call, while Mint lay there to rest.

"Mint?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the side. Mint sat up and looked up. His heart skipped a beat. It turned out to be Rong Zihua's mother?

"Auntie!" Mint stood up immediately. When Rong Zihua's mother was sure that it was indeed Mint, she walked over with a smile: "It's really you! Look at you, why have you changed your appearance?"

Yung Tze-hua's mother is a very gentle person, and Yung Tze-hua's character and temperament seem to be inherited from her. Mint accidentally met Yung Tze-hua's mother several times, so she is relatively familiar with her.

"I'm on annual leave. Auntie, will you come here to eat porridge today?"

"Yes, auntie, I came here with some friends to eat porridge. Mint, auntie heard that Zihua said that he... proposed to your sister? I have seen that child Bo Yan, who looks gentle and innocent on the outside.

, but... Auntie is very disappointed with Zihua." Mrs. Rong patted the back of Mint's hand, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Mint's expression was shocked. What did Mrs. Rong's words... mean?
