Reincarnation: The Sweet Wife Is A Miracle Doctor-Chapter 438 - 439: Breaking Through Step by Step 5

Li Tingyan was pulled aside to the attic corridor by Shang Wan as soon as he came downstairs, who said righteously,

"Tingyan, where did you meet this girlfriend? How come you never mentioned it to me before?"

"Nini and I have known each other for more than half a year. We didn’t have time before, and I thought it was hard to explain over the phone, so I decided to bring her directly for you to understand better."

"So, are you serious with her?" Shang Wan still felt unreal, because she had heard Li Tingyan say he would never get married in this life.

How could he suddenly bring back a girlfriend and even talk about marriage?

"Mom, do you think that’s appropriate to say?" Li Tingyan frowned, "Marriage isn’t child’s play. Do you think I’d joke about such a thing?"

"But what about little Huan?" Shang Wan slapped her thigh, "She grew up with you in the Big Courtyard, has liked you since she was a child. She’s so devoted to you.

I’ve been friends with her mom Yunrou for decades, and we already planned for you two to get engaged. Now you’re doing this, what am I supposed to do?"

Li Tingyan said with a gloomy face, "Mom, this is my major marriage decision; how can you make decisions for me so casually? Besides, I’m not even familiar with Chu Huan, whether she likes me has nothing to do with me."

"What are you saying, I’m your mother!" Shang Wan said angrily, "Isn’t it always about parents’ orders and matchmakers’ words since ancient times, what do you mean by making decisions for you casually. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

After all, isn’t it your fault for being distant and rejecting women in the past, I was afraid you’d cut off your father’s lineage. Besides, little Huan is devoted to you, and she’s the daughter of our family friend, the Chu Family.

If you marry her, it would only be beneficial for you, don’t you understand your mother’s good intentions?"

"Mom, marriage is about feelings, weren’t you and dad together because of love?"

Li Tingyan looked at his mother, "I remember you told me when you wanted to marry dad, grandma and grandpa didn’t agree, but you insisted on marrying him.

You know marriage is based on whether there are feelings between two people, so why are you getting confused when it’s my turn? I’m your son, don’t you want me to be happy?"

Shang Wan was momentarily speechless.

"Besides, the reason I was distant and didn’t want to get married before was that I hadn’t met the girl who moved my heart."

Li Tingyan said seriously, "Mom, do you believe in destiny?"

I didn’t believe it before.

Until I met Nini, then I had the idea of starting a family and a career; she’s the only girl who has moved me in my life."

Shang Wan could see Li Tingyan’s determination and knew he truly liked that Nianyang.

Sighing, she said, "But I’ve already talked to your Aunt Chu, how am I supposed to explain now?

I’m afraid it might affect the relationship between our two families."

"Mom, it was just a verbal agreement between you and Aunt Chu, something you did on your own. You can just go explain it to her, Aunt Chu is reasonable and won’t get angry!"

Shang Wan patted Li Tingyan on the shoulder, "You brat, what do you mean by something I did on my own, wasn’t I thinking about your lifelong happiness? Now I’ve ended up being the bad guy inside and out..."

Li Tingyan said in a low voice, "Mom, Nini is truly amazing, I know it may be hard for you to accept at the moment, but you have to understand, she’s the woman your son wants to spend his life with. Even for my sake, please be kinder to her, or if she suffers any grievances, in the end, it’ll be your son who’s tormented!"
