My Wife is My Life!
chapter-106

When Lu Lixing carried Ji Qingqing to their room, he accidentally scared Old Lu and Auntie Pei. They thought that something serious had happened to Ji Qingqing. But they soon let out a sigh of relief after they listened to Lu Lixing’s explanation.

Lu Lixing was called to his Old Lu’s study after he laid Ji Qingqing on the bed.

“Lixing, I called you here today because I want to discuss about the relationship between you and Qingqing”

“Please continue.”

The grandfather and the grandson sat down on the sofa.

The old man was holding the forty-nine Buddha beads that Ji Qingqing and Lu Lixing had gifted him. After a moment of contemplation, he said, “Ever since you woke up from the hospital after that incident, I haven’t found the time to talk to you. Since you are free today, I want to ask you what you think of Qingqing?”

“Grandpa, you…”

“I don’t want you to beat around the bush with me, just tell me how you honestly feel about Qingqing.”

Lu Lixing fell silent.

Old Lu looked at his silent expression and sighed, “When you returned from the hospital that day, I asked you in front of Qingqing if you were willing to marry her and take care of her for the rest of your life. You told me you were willing at that time.”

“Yes, I am willing.”

“Now that the two of you were able to properly interact with each other after a few days, can you tell me how you think of her?”

Lu Lixing thought about it and then replied, “She is clever and kind. She may be stubborn at times, but she is a lively, kind, and proper lady.”

“Do you dislike her?”

“I don’t hate her.”

Old Lu nodded, “Are you willing to accept her sincerely?”

Lu Lixing looked down on the floor, his long lashes blocked Old Lu from seeing the gentleness and tenderness in his eyes, “She is a very fine lady.”

Although she may be noisy, Lu Lixing had to admit that compared to the other women he had come in contact with before, she was the one he felt most comfortable around.

He was able to get along with her without any pressure, and he even felt happy and relaxed around her.

“I gave you some time to get to know her, and I believe that through these two days, Qingqing also has a general understanding of your personality. She is your wife, and she will be the person whom you will spend the rest of your life with. Even if you slightly dislike her, and do not want to accept her as your wife, then the two of you won’t have a blissful future. Instead, she will suffer in vain by staying with you. I will not force her to stay in the Lu Family so she can stay with you.”

“I am an experienced person,” Old Lu had a smile on his face, “it was the same with your grandmother. Although it was an arranged marriage without love, after a month of interacting with one another, she didn’t want to leave me anymore. Even so, she did dislike me slightly from the bottom of the heart, so we were unable to stay together.”

Lu Lixing knew that Old Lu was now old, so he was often nostalgic. He liked to tell stories that happened in his prime.

“But if you are truly willing to accept her, then you should prepare to propose to her.”

“Propose to her?”

“Of course! Don’t tell me you’re planning on letting Qingqing live in the Lu Family for the rest of her life without giving her an official title? You little rascal! What did your grandma and I teach you? Don’t you know how important a girl’s innocence is? Right now, she’s living with you without an official title or status, yet you still haven’t thought about getting married to her?”

“Grandpa, that’s not what I meant. I just feel like…it’s a little sudden.”

“This is not sudden. Things that needed to be done, should be done immediately. Although Qingqing is living with you right now, this fact has not been disclosed to outsiders yet. She also has parents and a family. If the two of you plan to get married, then it’s not a simple matter between the two of you, instead, it will be a matter concerning both families. Once you get married, her parents will become your parents too. It’s better the two of you marry earlier, this way, there will be less gossip about you the two of you.”
