Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was impossible for the Huo Family’s parents to be angry at He Yu. This was very obvious. They complied with the maximization of benefits and would never let go of an outstanding son-in-law candidate like He Yu.

Moreover, with Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s observation of Huo You, they felt that although this daughter looked good on the surface, as time passed, she would eventually expose her petty side. A girl of this quality would probably not be able to find a good family to get married into.

They felt that if they followed Huo You’s wishes and allowed her to break up with He Yu, how could they possibly get in-laws that could help the Huo Family?

If things were to reach that stage, Mr. and Mrs. Huo might as well chase Huo Tian away. At least Huo Tian had done pretty well and they heard that she and Si Huan were very inseparable.

Due to various considerations, Mr. and Mrs. Huo welcomed He Yu warmly. Although Huo You was the focus of their communication, she didn’t have the chance to interject.

At the end, when He Yu brought up that he was going to leave, he asked sincerely, “Uncle, Auntie, ever since I was injured recently in an accident, I felt that I had walked on the edge of life and death. This experience made me understand my feelings for Miss Huo. I realize that I can’t leave her at all now. If Uncle and Auntie Huo don’t mind that my legs are temporarily inconvenient, would you be willing to hand your beloved daughter to me?”

Huo You stood beside He Yu and her hand was held by him. She looked up, wanting to see rejection on her parents’ faces. However, she realized in despair that after a moment of surprise, her parents actually smiled happily.

According to the custom of the female’s parents, Mrs. Huo remained reserved and she didn’t agree directly. “I’m happy to see the relationship between you youngsters. It’s just that I think the progress seems to be a little faster. After all, Youyou hasn’t graduated from high school yet. You’re also still at the phase of being young and promising.”

He Yu said sincerely, “Uncle and Auntie Huo, after this incident, I’ve understood my feelings. Therefore, even though Youyou and I are still young, I want to shamelessly beg you to give her hand to me. In addition, to facilitate Youyou’s completion of her studies, I want to get engaged first during the upcoming school vacation. Uncle and Auntie Huo, I hope you can agree to my request.”

Mr. Huo fell silent for a moment and nodded. “He Yu, I admire your character and capabilities very much, so I agree to let the two of you get engaged first. I hope you won’t let my daughter down.”

He Yu was like a young boy who had fallen deeply in love and nodded happily. Mr. and Mrs. Huo were very satisfied with his performance. As long as he had feelings for his daughter, they wouldn’t need to be afraid that he wouldn’t give them a reasonable price.

After all, He Yu was now injured and in a wheelchair. They didn’t know if he would have any side effects in the future either. They should take this opportunity to ask for more things for their daughter’s sake…

For a moment, the Huo Family’s atmosphere was filled with warmth. Unlike the Huo Family’s hypocritical harmony, although the Ding Family which was situated in the urban village was not as luxurious as the Huo Family, the atmosphere was even more harmonious when compared to the Huo Family.

Ding Chen deliberately didn’t work overtime and returned home to have dinner with his niece. Other than the Ding Family, Bi Ying, Si Huan, and Zhao Feng, who Si Huan had brought over, were also present.

The few youngsters who were in their youth crowded the Ding Family’s small courtyard. They seemed to be talking about something and the courtyard was filled with cheerful voices and laughter.

Ding Rong was preparing dinner in the kitchen. The waves of fragrance tempted the young children, who had been hungry for a long time, to the point that they were looking forward to it…

Ding Chen was squatting by the roadside outside the tailor shop, smoking. He was still talking to the company’s employees on the phone non-stop. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he actually looked more like a big boss now.

A pitch-black car was parked by the street not far away. Ding Chen was a car lover. When he stood up, he took a few more glances at it. Although he could not see the brand of the car clearly, the design and texture of the car were clearly not ordinary.

Ding Chen wanted to get close and take a good look at the car.. He had just taken two steps when a girl with short purple hair ran out. “Uncle, it’s time for dinner…”
