Chapter 1791: Chapter 1791: The Soon-To-Be Brothers-in-Law Competing to Impress

The person on the other end of the phone hesitantly promised, "Don’t worry, Auntie has already talked to them. We’ll arrange a meeting for you after the New Year, so don’t rush it."

Liuyan felt unwilling, but at the moment, she had no grounds to stop anyone. It was clear that Luo Chen had forgotten about her.

However, thinking about how she and her cousin used to bully Luo Chen, she felt guilty, afraid that Luo Chen held a grudge and disliked her because of it.

But recalling what her aunt had said earlier, Luo Chen had graduated from university and was pursuing further studies, and his company with classmates was flourishing. She decided not to dwell on past matters, attributing them to childhood ignorance.

She turned around and continued shopping with her good friend, Lan Yue, anyway. With Auntie’s help, she had nothing to fear.

Little did she know, her aunt only wanted to borrow money from her family smoothly and used Luo Chen to paint a big picture for her. For Luo Chen, mentioning her aunt was a losing proposition.

Meanwhile, Luo Chen got into the car with Yanyan, whose expression wasn’t too good.

He then began to speak, "Yanyan, I actually know that person. I just remembered it now. What I’m telling you is true. She’s my aunt’s niece, Liuyan. When I stayed at my uncle’s house as a child, she, along with my cousins, bullied me and Luo Xin a lot."

Yanyan, upon hearing that girl bullied him as a child, felt even more angry, "If I see her next time, I’ll definitely help you deal with her."

Luo Chen reached out to hold Yanyan’s hand and spoke seriously, "Yanyan, although I don’t know what happened here, I promise, whether before or after this, I will have nothing to do with her."

Yanyan understood that some matters were only one-sided wishes. She nodded, "I hope you stick to your words. I have zero tolerance for emotional issues. If I find out you have strayed, I’ll take my heart back without hesitation."

Luo Chen reached out to tap her forehead, "I was brought out of my uncle’s house not long before we met. Although we weren’t often together afterwards, we still understood each other.

You know most of my matters, and later when I went to university and you were in high school, we saw each other less. You still don’t know what kind of person I am, stabbing me in the heart without mercy!"

Yanyan had a serious expression, "I just want to find a partner who is as devoted as my dad. Although he doesn’t sweet talk often and always puts official matters first, his heart and eyes are full of my mom.

Sometimes he might have to let my mom face danger for work, but we understand his choice. Someone has to make sacrifices in this society, someone has to be righteous.

No matter what people say about him, we can’t control that. But my mom has never blamed my dad, and she’s willing to do what she can for society.

In my eyes, they have achieved each other. Though it might not be a grand love affair, it’s enviable because they only have each other in their eyes, consistent and steadfast."

Luo Chen understood why Yanyan was saying this. She truly admired her parents’ relationship, and it’s also a warning to him, letting him understand she’s different from others and won’t lose herself for so-called love.

Yanyan’s character seemed carefree from the outside, but he knew that if she was set on something, it would be impossible to change her mind.

He lightly coughed, "Yanyan, the future is long. I don’t know if I can become the kind of partner you envision, but I will try, not to become what you want, but because love makes me want to become that."

Yanyan was moved by Luo Chen’s words, her eyes filled with tears, yet she smiled brightly, "Okay, I’ll be watching."

The two of them exchanged a smile, quietly waiting for the spring breeze and blossoms.

Meanwhile, Yueyue was also complaining to Qi Junrui for buying such expensive things without consulting her.

Qi Junrui smiled and comforted the upset Yueyue, "They are boys, if we give them something too ordinary, they won’t be interested. It’s better not to give anything at all. Besides, this is the first year, I have to show some gesture to build a connection.

This time it’s my fault. In the future, I’ll discuss with you before making any moves. Please don’t be mad at me, okay?"
