Lu Jingyang only woke up when the alarm clock rang. It was a very comfortable sleep.
Lu Jingyang got out of bed, tidied up, and changed his clothes. He then opened the door and went to Auntie Liu's house.
The door opened. It was Uncle Song.
"Jing Yang!" Uncle Song looked at Lu Jingyang outside the door happily. Then, he stepped aside and said with a smile,""Come in, come in. I heard from your Auntie Liu that you're back, but I didn't believe it. Come, change into this pair of slippers. Your Auntie Liu bought them for you today.”
"Uncle, I can do it myself."
Lu Jingyang was used to Uncle Song's enthusiasm. He took the slippers and placed them on the ground. After changing into his shoes, he walked inside.
"Jing Yang is here. Sit for a while. The food will be ready soon.”Liu Fang came out of the kitchen and greeted him before going back to work.
"Where's Tingting? Why don't I see her?"
Song Tingting was Uncle Song's daughter. She was a few years younger than Lu Jingyang and was in her second year of university. She lived in Chengdu City, which was not very far away. It took more than an hour by subway.
"Don't mention that girl. When she grows up, it's not up to us anymore. She insisted on staying in school and only came back on weekends. She'll probably be back tomorrow afternoon.”Uncle Song said as he led Jing Yang to the sofa in the living room.
Lu Jingyang didn't reply. He smiled and took a sip from the teacup that Uncle Song handed him.
"I heard from your Auntie Liu that you got into the police force?”
"Yes, the political review has passed, but the notice has not come yet.”Lu Jingyang nodded.
"Alright, being a police officer has a better future than working in a state-owned enterprise. Do your best. If you need any help from Uncle Song, just say it. Don't treat us as outsiders.”
"I know, Uncle Song. I didn't treat you as outsiders.”Lu Jingyang replied with a smile, his heart burning with warmth.
"By the way, have you had a girlfriend in Shanghai for the past two years?”The death interrogation of the older generation began.
" Uh..." Lu Jingyang was stunned, then he said,""No, in Shanghai, work is very busy. I have to work for a living every day. How can I have time to have a girlfriend?”
"Alright, Tingting will graduate from university in two years.”Uncle Song said faintly.
" Cough cough…" Lu Jingyang choked on Uncle Song's words. "Uncle Song, Tingting graduated from a famous university. How can she like me? Don't randomly choose a couple. She'll blame me when the time comes.”
Song Tingting was a beauty and a famous university student. She was Lu Jingyang's childhood sweetheart. However, he really treated Song Tingting as his younger sister. After all, they were too close.
"What do you mean? What kind of person was she looking for? I'll tell her when I come back tomorrow." Uncle Song raised his eyebrows and glared at him, displaying his authority as a patriarch.
"Uncle, I'm begging you. Don't be like this. Besides, Tingting is still young. If Tingting catches you a rich husband, you'll regret it to death.”
Lu Jingyang joked with a smile.
"What rich son-in-law?" At this moment, Auntie Liu came out of the kitchen with the dishes and asked.
"It's nothing." Uncle Song's aura instantly weakened. He stood up with a smile and went over to take the plate from his wife's hand. He walked towards the dining table and when he turned around, he even gave Lu Jingyang a look.
Lu Jingyang smiled and stood up to help.
The three of them set up the dishes and sat in the dining room. Uncle Song opened a bottle of red wine and poured it for them. He said,"Welcome back, Jing Yang. At the same time, congratulations to Jing Yang for getting into the police force.”
"Alright." Auntie Liu smiled and touched it.
"Thank you, Uncle Song. Thank you, Auntie Liu.”Lu Jingyang clinked glasses with the two elders and then drank up.
"Come, eat, eat. Jing Yang, eat more. Look, you've lost a lot of weight in Shanghai. It's good that you're back. When you get off work in the future, you can come over for dinner directly.”
"Eh, okay, there's a free meal to eat now.”Lu Jingyang agreed with a smile. He knew that Auntie Liu would be unhappy if he kept pushing the issue.
After eating for a while, Liu Fang suddenly remembered something and asked,""By the way, what rich husband were you talking about just now? What happened?"
" Cough, cough." Uncle Song choked and coughed a few times.
"Why are you coughing?" Auntie Liu glanced at Uncle Song without batting an eyelid, and the other party immediately covered his mouth.
"Nothing. Uncle Song asked me if I had a girlfriend, so we started talking about this.”Lu Jingyang picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Uncle Song's as he said with a smile.
"That's true. Jing Yang, you're already twenty-three this year. You'll be twenty-four after the new year. It's time for you to get a girlfriend.”
"It's still early, Auntie Liu. I want to wait until my career is stable.”Lu Jingyang had no choice but to bite the bullet and shirk the responsibility.
"Early what? Let me tell you, Jing Yang, your parents are no longer around, and you don't have any other relatives. Uncle Song and I are your elders. If you want to start a family, we will definitely help you.”Auntie Liu said seriously.
"What are you talking about? Jing Yang was right. Let's wait and see.”
Uncle Song saw that Lu Jingyang's eyes were a little sad. He knew that Lu Jingyang was thinking of his parents, so he looked at Liu Fang reproachfully and said.
"Jing Yang, I'm sorry. Auntie Liu didn't mean it that way.”Liu Fang also realized that she had said the wrong thing and made Lu Jingyang unhappy.
"It's okay, Auntie Liu." Lu Jingyang raised his head and smiled at Auntie Liu and Uncle Song.""It's been two years. Actually, I've recovered. It's just that sometimes I can't help myself.”
"You're all my elders. I know you're doing this for my own good. Don't worry, I'm fine.”
Liu Fang nodded and said,""Oh right, Tingting is not young anymore. Why don't you two try it out? Anyway, that little girl has been following behind you since she was young and is especially clingy to you. Speaking of which, you two are childhood sweethearts.”
"Um, Auntie Liu, about this?"
"Why? You don't like Tingting?" Auntie Liu glared at Lu Jingyang and asked.
"No, it really isn't." Lu Jingyang hurriedly looked at Auntie Liu seriously and said,""That's right. You have to ask Tingting about this, right? What if Tingting already had a boyfriend? Also, I've always treated Tingting as my younger sister. How am I going to get along with Tingting after this?”
"That's true." Liu Fang thought about it and felt that it made sense.
" Phew." Lu Jingyang was a little troubled by this " forced marriage." Judging from Auntie Liu's expression, it seemed like she had passed the test.
"When Tingting comes back tomorrow, I'll ask her if she has a partner. If she doesn't, the two of you can try to look around.”
Lu Jingyang, who was originally relieved, did not expect Auntie Liu to be so persistent. His heart, which had just been relieved, was once again on tenterhooks. In his heart, he silently mourned for Song Tingting, who was about to return.
At the same time, he made up his mind that he would not come over for dinner tomorrow night.
