457 Let’s have a child (8)
This morning, Chi Yi had just arrived at the office when she received an overseas call from her mother from Los Angeles.
“Mom! Why are you calling me at this time? Isn’t it early in the morning over at your side? Still not sleeping?” She put down her bag and answered the call.
“Yes, I just chatted with your dad’s friend in China. I didn’t have time to sleep yet!”
“What’s the matter?”
She felt that he must have something to tell her if he called her at this hour.
“A little awkward.”
Watch! He knew it.
“Your dad’s friend has a son, and he’s about to get married, Yueyue.”
“Mom!”
Chi Yi interrupted her mother’s words before she could finish listening. Frowning, she said, ” “What’s going on? You’re planning to set me up on a blind date?”
“I didn’t say it was a blind date. I just hope that you two can meet first. The two young people can sit together and talk. If you don’t feel anything, your dad won’t force you!”
“I don’t feel anything!”
Chi Yi rejected him without a second thought.
“Yiyi, did you get together with your uncle again?” Lin Yunyan asked her anxiously.
Chi Yi did not want to hide anything. something like that!
“You little girl, how can you be so foolish! Did you forget how he treated you five years ago? If there was a first time, there would be a second time! Did you know?”
Her mother’s words still caused a dull pain to flash through her heart.
Even though she had always tried her best to erase the pain from five years ago, she thought that she could do it without caring at all. However, when her mother mentioned these things again, she realized that she still cared a little.
“Mom, I don’t want to talk about what happened five years ago.”
“Alright, if you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t talk about it either. But, Yiyi, no matter how much you like a man, you should think about your own future, right? Let’s not talk about how your uncle treats you, but he’s having some trouble moving around now. It’s hard to say what will happen in the future. Have you thought about your own life in the future? Do you really intend to take care of him for the rest of your life?”
“Mom! Little uncle doesn’t need me to take care of him now, his legs are fine!” Chi Yi was really getting a little annoyed.
However, she knew that her parents were actually thinking about her happiness.
This was how society was. Love was ethereal, but when it came to marriage, it was all realistic.
alright, alright, alright. You won’t like it if I say more. I won’t say anymore, but your father has already arranged everything for you. If you don’t go today, your father won’t be able to put down his face.
“Mom, I’m not going.”
“Xiao si ‘er, don’t be willful! Even if you really don’t like her, as his daughter, you have to protect his face. If you don’t like her, then so be it. It’s not a loss to see her, right? If you don’t show up, how can your dad show his face in front of his friends? Do you want to see him apologize to his friends because of you?”
Chi Yi was truly unable to refute this.
“Alright, I’ll agree to go this time, but I’ll make it clear first. This is the only time, and there will be no next time! Don’t make any more decisions on my behalf, I’m really not interested! Will that do?”
“Alright, alright, alright! You’re our Empress Dowager, I’ll listen to everything you say, okay?”
