Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 629: Should I Give Up?

These past two years, they’ve been trying every possible way to set me up on blind dates... I’ve suspected more than once that they might be in a hurry to marry me off...

Taking a bite of a grape, her eyes darted around, and she found a more tactful reason, "Mom, I don’t want to get married right now... I want to wait until someone I love appears before I get married!"

"Besides, I already like someone, isn’t it too demanding to force this on me..." The last part was said a bit softly, and Shen Xiaya didn’t catch all of it, but she vaguely heard her saying she likes someone!

A flash of shrewdness appeared in her eyes as she turned to look at her daughter... Mentioning that sentence just now, her face visibly blushed for a moment, so she asked, "You have someone you like? Whose child is it? When will you bring them over for me to meet?"

Lan Shan’s face showed awkwardness for a second, wanting to bite off her own tongue... Why did she have to say that!! Thinking of brushing off the topic, she randomly found an excuse, "Mom, I’m a bit tired today, so I won’t chat with you now, I’m going upstairs to sleep."

After speaking, just as she picked up her bag and was about to make a quick exit, her mother’s voice came from behind, "Come back."

Her steps paused, accepting her fate, she gritted her teeth with a look of resolute determination, turned around stiffly, and gave an awkward smile, "Mom, I’m really sleepy..." After speaking, she even put on a show of yawning, hoping her mother would believe her...

Shen Xiaya curled her lips, knowing all too well that her daughter was trying to avoid the issue, and didn’t give her a chance to escape. Glancing at the seat beside her, she slowly said, "Come over and sit down first!"

Lan Shan’s face looked worse than weeping, she really wanted to slap herself, wondering why she had to mention it; now she was caught!

Standing there in turmoil for a while, feeling her mother’s gaze growing increasingly sharp, she steeled her resolve, gritted her teeth, and made her way back to the sofa, plopping herself down.

"Explain! What’s going on?" As a mother, she should be glad her daughter likes someone, but given her daughter’s straightforward nature, she was worried she might get hurt...

Lan Shan pondered for a while and finally spoke, "There is someone I like, but... it’s a bit impossible between us!"

"Why?"

After a long silence, she let out a light sigh, thinking of what Tiangong Shaoyu had said to Xinluo in the hospital room, her heart ached sharply...

He had said, "He doesn’t want to like anyone else anymore," a statement that undoubtedly struck Lan Shan hard. Originally, she had planned to confess after hearing Xinluo’s words, but now... she just couldn’t muster the courage!

Confessing would be easy, but she feared that after she confessed, he would reject her, and then... even being friends with Gong Shaoyu would be impossible!

Seeing she was lost in thought, Shen Xiaya did not urge her but silently sat beside her, waiting.

After several minutes, Lan Shan snapped back, deflated like a punctured ball, sighing softly before opening her mouth, "He has someone he likes, mom, do you think I should give up?"

Hearing this, Shen Xiaya’s beautiful brows furrowed a bit, this indeed was a rather tricky issue. After some thought, she asked, "So, does the person he likes also like him?"

"No." Lan Shan gently shook her head, explaining, "The person he likes already has someone they love..."
