Chapter 162 - 162 Marriage Proposal At The Same Time As The Birthday Celebration
Ai Zhaojiang expressed that he didn’t really care.
Mother Luo felt that she had a good conversation with Ai Zhaojiang and felt that today was a good day. She said excitedly, “It’s just nice that we met today. As the head of the family, we can also settle the children’s matters and get them engaged. It’s also a good start to things so that everyone can be at ease, right?”
Ai Zhaojiang really couldn’t feel at ease!
He did not want to be polite at all. He was afraid that the politeness on the surface would be taken as tonic by Mother Luo.
Why did all of them want to snatch his granddaughter from him? Ai Zhaojiang felt that his granddaughter was too obedient and cute. It was also a sweet burden.
Mother Luo didn’t notice Ai Zhaojiang’s resistance. She took two steps forward and said with a smile, “Don’t you think so?”
Ai Zhaojiang was really scared of her. Why did he have to know the answer?
When he faced Luo Feng, he could still glare at him. While he was unforgiving on the surface, he already treated Luo Feng as his grandson-in-law after all.
At least he had an elder’s position here. Moreover, it was his child. It was fine to say a few words.
However, when the other party was Father and Mother Luo, Ai Zhaojiang only felt aggrieved. It seemed that other than smiling bitterly, he had no other way to deal with it.
Moreover, they had come all the way from their hometown and had been thinking about his granddaughter. Ai Zhaojiang had also heard from Ai Tingya that she had been taken care of by Mother Luo and treated her even better than Luo Feng.
Ai Tingya would sigh from time to time. If Mother Luo hadn’t taken good care of her during the most stressful period in the Third High School, allowing her to have nothing to worry about anything other than studying, she might not have been able to get into the university she was in now.
In other words, Mother Luo played a huge role in Ai Tingya’s reunion with Ai Zhaojiang in this city.
Therefore, other than being aggrieved, he was still aggrieved!
“In-law, let me tell you. Don’t worry and hand Tingya over to our family. I’ve always treated her as my biological daughter.” The more Mother Luo spoke, the more engrossed she became. She felt as if the marriage would be completed soon.
She simply walked up to Ai Zhaojiang and said, “In the past, I was thinking of getting them engaged first. After all, I wouldn’t be willing to let another family take a fancy to such a good girl. However, when I thought about how Tingya was still young, I was afraid of scaring her. I asked Director Du, but she said to listen to Tingya’s opinion. The engagement can be discussed easily with you, her grandpa. Hahaha.”
Ai Zhaojiang was really scared to death.
“Ahem! Actually, I don’t think there’s a need to be in such a hurry. I just met Tingya and want to spend more time with her. Besides, they’re still studying. There’s no hurry…”
Ai Zhaojiang felt that if he didn’t say anything, his granddaughter would be taken away!
Mother Luo persevered and said, “We’re just getting them engaged. It won’t affect Tingya from staying by your side until they graduate… Don’t you think so?”
Mother Luo felt that there was a need to work hard on today’s matter. Didn’t her son complain that she didn’t bring him a gift? Could there be a bigger gift than this if the marriage was settled?
Of course not!
Ai Zhaojiang clearly didn’t want to continue the conversation.
No matter what Mother Luo said, he would not back down.
He just couldn’t bear to!
Mother Luo’s saliva almost dried up from talking.
Ai Zhaojiang was unmoved. He was like an iron plate that couldn’t hear nor see. He would pretend that this wasn’t discussed at all!
Seeing that Ai Zhaojiang was abnormally decisive, Mother Luo turned to look at Luo Feng. Suddenly, she had a plan. She pulled Luo Feng over and pushed him forward. “Professor Ai, what do you think of my son?”
She was like a newly hired salesman, enthusiastic and proactive.
“Uh… he’s not bad…” Ai Zhaojiang was confused. Was she trying to make him relent by praising her son?
“That’s good!” Mother Luo was waiting for Ai Zhaojiang to say this. “When Tingya enters our family, Luo Feng will also be your eldest grandson. You’ll have a good grandson all of a sudden. You just have to enjoy life!”
“… I’ve been lonely for most of my life. I’m already very satisfied to have a granddaughter,” Ai Zhaojiang said.
After saying this, Luo Feng felt that his mother’s gaze had changed. It had become especially disdainful and expected better from someone.
Mother Luo sighed. She really didn’t expect that her silly son would be undesirable one day. She had sent him to the door for free, but he didn’t want it. She didn’t know if he usually performed well.
How would he be able to marry Tingya like this?!
Luo Feng was really innocent. He was such a talented person, but why were the two of them looking at him with disdain?
He felt the need to make a big move. “Actually, I think Tingya’s opinion is more important. Professor Ai… doesn’t he respect his granddaughter too?”
Hearing this, Ai Zhaojiang’s eyelids twitched twice. He had a bad feeling.
Luo Feng rubbed his chin and thought very seriously. “Mom, if I propose to Tingya in public when we celebrate her birthday, she should agree, right?”
Mother Luo’s eyes lit up and she gave him a thumbs up. This method was very good!
Ai Zhaojiang covered his chest. He felt that Luo Feng was trying to anger him to death! Compared to Mother Luo’s enthusiastic attacks, Luo Feng was too ruthless!
The more Luo Feng thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. “propose, get engaged,register the marriage immediately when we are of age! From soup to nuts, it can save us a lot of trouble.”
Mother Luo slapped her thigh. “As expected of my good son. He’s creative! There are still a few days left. We can hurry up and prepare!”
Ai Zhaojiang’s face darkened when he heard the mother and son conspiring loudly.
He understood one thing very well. Ai Tingya really liked Luo Feng. If she was at the right age, she would want to enter the marriage hall immediately.
The happy and harmonious life of the grandfather and granddaughter seemed to have gained an extra seat. Luo Feng would definitely squeeze into the middle! Then, it would be no different from now!
Luo Feng looked at Ai Zhaojiang’s on the brink of tears expression and felt that the old man was a little easy to fool. He would not take Ai Tingya away immediately.
“Professor Ai, we’re just getting engaged. There are still a few years before we get married. Don’t worry.”
Ai Zhaojiang glanced at Luo Feng and didn’t feel comforted.
He had completely lost interest in talking. He said goodbye to Father and Mother Luo and went back into the house in a daze.
Upon seeing his lonely back view, Mother Luo said, “It seems like he really dotes on Tingya. He can’t bear to let go no matter what. Come to think of it, they have only met. He’s just an old man. I don’t know how he managed to survive in the past.”
At this point, she looked at Luo Feng and said, “You have to be filial to Professor Ai in the future.”
