Delayed confession

The warm yellow light shone on the man's profile, making it white and translucent.

When Gu Mochuan heard the voice, he immediately turned around and looked over.

An hour ago, the two said goodbye and were going back to their own homes, but now they found themselves looking at each other in surprise in someone else's home.

"Why are you here?" Xu Weixi closed the door casually and asked first.

"Shen Ruoxuan worked hard and said he wanted to study. I had nothing to do, so I followed him."

Xu Weixi nodded, with no expression on her face.

Looking at the girl's back, Gu Mochuan lowered his head at the test paper in his hand, and the argument just now at home echoed in his mind.

Gu Mochuan's home,

Mother Gu looked at her son who was humming a song and asked gently, "What good thing happened?"

Ever since they expressed their opposition to his relationship with that girl, I haven't seen my son smiling, so I asked this question.

"Mom, I want to go to their house and propose marriage during the New Year."

"Propose marriage? Sure, take a look at this first."

Mother Gu glanced at him and placed a stack of information in front of him.

Gu Mochuan was puzzled and turned over slowly.

Seeing her son's frown, she felt a little bit reluctant. After all, first love is beautiful.

"If you are ready to support their family, you can propose marriage, but we have this obligation. We have already bought you a house and a car, so it has nothing to do with us. But in the future, your uncle will take over the company..."

A left-behind child, his uncle is a gambler, his mother is weak, and his father cannot distinguish right from wrong.

Her life in the past was... so hard.

……

"Is there something wrong?" Xu Weixi looked blankly at the man who was about to knock on the door.

Gu Mochuan had been thinking about it all the way, but just now, he suddenly realized that there was nothing wrong with it, he could just raise her as long as she was happy.

It’s not like I can’t afford it.

"If there's anything you need help with at home, please let me know."

Xu Weixi raised her eyelashes slightly, thinking that her expression just now frightened him, and forced a smile.

"I'm fine. I just had a few words with my parents. Don't worry."

Who would quarrel on New Year's Eve? It seems that their family really has been oppressing her as written in the information.

"Oh, there's one more thing I forgot to mention. If you want us to talk for a year, it's best if you don't interfere in my family affairs. Of course, I won't interfere in yours either."

Xu Weixi was afraid that his deliberately irritating words today would give Li Sufen's family an opportunity to take advantage of him.

He didn't know the truth and was used by that group of people.

After hearing this, the man opened his mouth and chose to nod.

One year, why did she keep emphasizing one year?

It was clearly within reach, but he didn't dare to ask.

The window in Xu Weixi's room was half open, and through the door and window, the biting cold wind outside mercilessly hit the man beside the door, not knowing whether it was to wake him up or to block the wind.

She touched her rumbling stomach, unwrapped the package in her hand as she walked, and prepared to eat a few bites before going back to write her novel.

But before he could even put the bread into his mouth, someone snatched it away.

Her big eyes flickered as she looked at Gu Mochuan, and her questioning intention was obvious.

"Don't eat these junk foods. I'm going to make dumplings later."

The man's skilled expression made it seem as if the two of them were an old married couple.

Was what I just said in vain?

Didn't she express herself clearly?

Xu Weixi didn't care, nodded casually, and prepared to go back to the house.

"Wait a minute, I need someone to help me..." Gu Mochuan argued in a low voice, "Shen Ruoxuan needs to study."

What this means is, you can't just ignore a lazy person and use a child instead.

She was silent for a moment, and protested that it was not her who wanted to eat, but thinking of the special day today, she nodded obediently.

The flour slowly took shape as the water entered it. Seeing the magical changes in the dough in his hands, Xu Weixi's expression began to relax.

The two of them worked for more than three hours, and finally the three of them had their New Year's Eve dinner. They watched the TV show that ended with the dumplings that were always criticized by the public.

After slowly swallowing the dumpling in her mouth, she felt better and tilted her head to look at Gu Mochuan who had been stealing glances at her.

Shen Ruoxuan looked at the ambiguous atmosphere that was gradually rising, and tactfully took the bowl back to his room.

Alas, eating dog food at home, and eating more outside, the little boy wrote in his notebook with some sadness,

"I hope she'll like me."

At the end, he wrote a line of small words below, "I want to marry her."

……

Before the end of the first month of the lunar year, things had developed as Xu Weixi had expected.

After making inquiries from many sources, they blocked Gu Mochuan at the door of the cafe on the third day of the Lunar New Year with several boxes of gifts.

The man had come back to get a small coffee machine. He looked at the three people in front of him and nodded in confusion.

"Everyone, our store is closed today and will open on the 15th."

"Brother Gu, do you remember me? I'm Xu Weixi's sister. We've met before."

Wang Kexin deliberately posed and spoke gently.

Gu Mochuan didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but then he changed his mind and realized that only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you find a better solution.

He nodded slightly and invited the three people into the store.

As soon as Li Sufen entered the room and saw the interior decoration, she pursed her lips in jealousy.

This damn girl actually found this rich and good-looking young man without making any noise.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" After all, they were elders, so Gu Mochuan politely made tea for them.

"I heard that this store is yours?"

Before coming, they had asked around and found out that the store was his name.

"This is my personal privacy, it's not convenient to talk about it." The man leaned back slightly, leaned against the back of the chair, and sat there lazily.

"We're going to be a family soon, there's no need to worry about privacy." Li Sufen looked like a smug villain.

In this situation, if he refutes, this group of people will go back and accuse her of lying. If he acquiesces, and then brings up other things that they cannot do or do not agree to, they will go back and ridicule her.

This woman is really amazing.

Wang Kexin looked at him without saying anything, just calmly looking the three of them up and down. She couldn't help feeling a little scared inside and tugged at her mother's sleeve.

Li Sufen also noticed it, patted her hand soothingly, and said with a smile,

"Wei Xi said that you could arrange a job for her sister, so we came here."

If Xu Weixi had not discussed this with her beforehand, this might have actually worked. After all, it was not difficult for him to arrange a job.

The man was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "She told me that you need a high-paying job to transition, right?"

Originally they just hoped to have a decent job, but they didn't expect it to be high-paying. The father and his two sons were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling and nodded repeatedly to express their gratitude.

Half an hour later, the three of them left the cafe contentedly and waved goodbye to him happily. However, they didn't want to be seen by Xu Weixi who was passing by after get off work.

Gu Mochuan turned around and saw Xu Weixi behind him, who looked like she was waiting for him to explain. He was afraid that his plan would fail, so he went forward and hugged her.

"Why are you wearing so little? Aren't you cold?"
