Chapter 339: Chapter 332: Is this a confirmation?
“Mhm, what?” Qin Ziye immediately snuggled his arm more tightly around Tang Yuxin’s shoulder. The more he liked her scent, so calm and comforting, like a gentle stream that passed by you and left a naturally soothing atmosphere in its wake.
“Does the Sun family matter have anything to do with you?” Tang Yuxin bit into her baozi again, riskily testing him with her question.
“Why do you ask?” Qin Ziye smiled, but Tang Yuxin noticed that his eyes always seemed to hide a great deal, things she couldn’t fathom.
Maybe she never tried to fully understand. It was as if she was leaving him some space, some trust. But she warned him not to destroy her trust. To love often requires a long time and much effort, but to stop loving could occur in the blink of an eye, perhaps even in a minute or a second.
By the way, how could she think it was him? Well, it’s quite simple.
She didn’t know many people in Beijing. After all, she’s just a student, an ordinary student. Song Qingtong had mentioned that the Sun family wasn’t ordinary. Even if they weren’t filthy rich, they still held significant influence. People like them, who weren’t locals, didn’t have any foothold in this place. It’s often said that even a powerful dragon can’t stand up to a local snake.
Maybe their parents could step in and take their side, but in the end, those who were meant to be expelled would be expelled. And the only person Tang Yuxin could think of to help out was Qin Ziye.
She turned to look at the man beside her, her eyes possibly wanting to discern something, but in the end, she didn’t say anything or have any specific thoughts.
Qin Ziye loved Tang Yuxin’s intelligence the most, her emotional intelligence that is, though her IQ was impressive too.
A partner like her is great, as long as you truly love her.
Yes, Tang Yuxin was waiting for his answer. Was it yes or no?
“You want me to answer yes or no?” Qin Ziye asked her in a somewhat profound way.
Tang Yuxin bit into another baozi. “I want your answer to be yes, because you did it for me. But I also want your answer to be no, because then you might be more ordinary.”
The question of family background was actually quite tricky. The ancient saying ‘marry your equals’ is not invalid, not only because of family reasons but also the different levels of status between the two individuals, which can’t be balanced overnight.
“Don’t think too much,” Qin Ziye wrapped some of her hair around his finger. He probably liked her hair the most.
Tang Yuxin hasn’t heard the answer she wanted yet, but she thought that she already knew the answer. Indeed, Qin Ziye had done it.
“Are you going back to Qing’an?”
“Of course,” Qin Ziye responded, picking up some food with his chopsticks and putting it in his bowl. “I love the Blue River there. It’s the most beautiful river I’ve ever seen.”
“I love it too,” Tang Yuxin replied. She loved the Blue River as it was now but knew she wouldn’t appreciate how it would turn out in the future – an outcome that hardly anyone would cherish.
“Then let’s go to the Blue River together,” Qin Ziye proposed, his eyes covered by something indistinguishable, hiding the light behind his eyes, something that Tang Yuxin was never privy to.
That’s right, you will be a junior next year. And after your junior year, you will need to work. As your future husband, I need to meet your parents.
The chopsticks in Tang Yuxin’s hand tightened a little at his words.
He meant to formally meet her parents, and then their relationship would be set in stone.
And then, when the time was right, they could truly be together.
“What’s the matter, aren’t you pleased?”
Qin Ziye leaned closer to her face, marveling at the radiant skin of this girl, the best, most wondrous, and prettiest he had ever seen.
“No,” Tang Yuxin responded, raising her chin to meet his eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.
“Then wait for me,” Qin Ziye gently pinched Tang Yuxin’s face. “You’re such a slow grower.”
Tang Yuxin thought about her age, twenty. It did seem somewhat slow.
Having been married before, she naturally understood the implications of Qin Ziye’s words, but no matter what, they hadn’t reached the point of marrying yet.
She took out her phone card and rang up her home.
“Yeah, dad, I’m going to be home a little late this year. The dean still has a few surgeries, and I’m going to follow along to learn. Also...”
She had wanted to say she would be bringing someone home this year, but swallowed her words. She decided not to say anything further. Her father had always disapproved of Qin Ziye, and every mention of his name would spark her father’s temper. So she decided not to mention it. Once Qin Ziye arrives at their home, her father surely wouldn’t kick him out. But she was certain that her father, upon learning Qin Ziye was coming, would look as though his face had lengthened and dropped to the floor. His eyes would probably shoot daggers, though she wasn’t sure whether they would be aimed at her or Qin Ziye.
