Chapter 216: The Parents Meet
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
To be honest, ever since she decided to get married, Nan Ge had never thought about what she needed to do to get married.
Regarding the preparations for the wedding, she had always thought that it was very far away from her.
There was still a year and a half until her graduation. From what she knew, the wedding could be prepared in the last half of the year.
She did not expect Shen Yanqing to be so “anxious”.
Yu Yu called Nan Ge a few times, but she was on the phone.
After Nan Ge hung up the call with Shen Yanqing, she found out that Yu Yu was looking for her.
Without thinking too much, she clicked on the speaker and placed it by the bed.
She lay on the bed and continued to watch television with the doll in her arms. Yu Yu’s voice sounded at the same time. “Are you and Shen Yanqing getting married?”
“Huh?” Nan Ge raised her eyebrows and glanced at the upside-down phone beside her.
“How did you find out?”
She had yet to tell the people in Jiang City about her marriage.
Not to mention Yu, her parents did not even tell the other two uncles. Her brother was also very tight-lipped and did not mention this to Old Madam Nan.
Clearly, they had learned their lesson and did not want to make her unhappy again.
Yu Yu paused for a moment and said, “I heard it from Su Hui today.” He had been chatting with Su Hui tonight and did not expect to receive such explosive news.
Of course, Su Hui thought that he knew about it. After all, he was Nan Gels childhood friend and the two families had such a good relationship. Su Hui had just mentioned it casually, but she did not expect Yu Yu to not know about it.
Yu Yu quickly came to look for Nan Ge.
“What’s going on? Could it be a joke?”
Nan Ge nodded. “It’s true.”
“Then why didn’t you tell me?” It was such a big matter!!!
“The two families will only meet tomorrow. I want to tell you after everything is settled.”
Su Hui found out because Nan Ge had returned to the dormitory to get her things, so she naturally said it. Girls told each other everything. Yu Yu roared on the other end of the phone, still feeling unbalanced.
“I’m actually not the first to know!”
“Don’t worry, there are still many people who don’t know. You’re not the first, but you’re definitely not the last.”
“Hehe, you’re the best at comforting people.” Yu Yu was speechless.
“But why are you thinking about marriage now?”
Previously, at a gathering, everyone had asked Nan Ge while they were playing games if she had ever thought about when she expected herself to get married.
At that time, Nan Ge thought about it seriously for a few minutes before finally saying, “The later the better.”
Everyone was so curious mainly because everyone in the circle knew very well that any family’s daughter in Jiang City might become a tool for business through marriage. Only Nan Ge did not have to go through this.
She was definitely free.
Putting aside the fact that her parents would not do this, Nan Zhe would not agree if her parents had such intentions.
As the people in the circle said, even if Nan Zhe let Nan Ge die single and lonely, he would never allow her to be reduced to this.
It sounded like a joke, but Yu Yu and Yuan Chi, who knew Nan Zhe better, knew that this was indeed something Nan Zhe would do.
So what exactly made Nan Ge change her mind? Could it be…
Yu Yu gasped and asked softly, “Did President Shen force you to get married?” Nan Ge was speechless. He was really imaginative.
As expected, he had something in common with Su Hui. At that time, Su Hui had the same reaction.
“It’s purely because I want to get married. However, there’s indeed a story behind this. Let’s talk another day when we meet. It’s hard to explain over the phone. ”
The two families were going to eat together tomorrow. After eating, they had to discuss their marriage.
She did not have time to go out tomorrow. She had to go back to school the day after tomorrow.
Yu Yu also had classes, but he had few classes. “Then I’ll go to Huai City next week when I’m free. Let’s have a meal together.”
“Sure.” Nan Ge felt that it was fine.
Because she was nervous, Nan Ge fell asleep very late. The next day, it was already past nine in the morning when she woke up. The stylist and the others had been waiting downstairs for an hour. Nan Ge washed up before asking someone to go upstairs.
After dressing up, it was almost lunchtime.
Nan Zhe sat on the sofa in the living room and watched her change her clothes like she was on a fashion show. His eyes were already tired.
In the end, he casually gave a suggestion. “The first one looks good.” In fact, he could not even remember what she tried out first.
Nan Ge pretended to think about it and nodded seriously. “I think so too.”
‘ Nan Zhe spread his hands. “Please hurry up. They’ll be here soon. Why are you dilly-dallying?
The Shen family arrived half an hour later. When Nan Ge went out to welcome them, she saw six cars driving toward her in a row from afar.
Shen Yanqing’s father and Auntie Wang were not the only ones who came today.
There were also Shen Yanqing’s uncle, aunt, and younger cousin.
The rest of the cars were filled with gifts for her parents.
Previously, Nan Ge had heard Shen Yanqing mention that he had an uncle. The two families had a good relationship. His uncle was not based in Huai City, so they could only see each other once a year. It seemed that he had especially rushed over for Shen Yanqing’s marriage.
It was clear that this mattered a lot to the Shen family. Mr. and Mrs. Nan were also pleased.
In the early years, Mr. Nan and Mr. Shen had actually met.
Everyone was from this area, and their circle was only so big. It was not strange for them to meet.
However, it had been a long time.
Mr. Shen did not look like a businessman. He had the aura of a scholar and spoke well.
Mr. Nan was very talkative and admired people like Mr. Shen the most. In addition, Shen Yanqing’s uncle was around. It was said that he was the mayor of a certain city. The three of them chatted non-stop.
The atmosphere on the other side was not bad either.
Looking at the younger generation, his younger cousin was about the same age as Nan Ge and was extremely extroverted. After seeing Nan Ge, he called her sister-in-law first, causing Nan Zhe to roll his eyes.
Nan Ge was a little shy, but she did not correct him.
During the banquet, the Shen family asked the Nan family for their opinion.
Both sides felt that it was better to get engaged next year, so they chose March.
As for the wedding date… Mrs. Nan was more particular. She got a master to shortlist a few auspicious dates for them to choose from.
Coincidentally, Wang Chunyu had done the same thing. Before she came, she had also found someone to shortlist a few good dates.
rlWvo days had indeed coincided.
This meant that these two were definitely good days. The two families decided to choose one of the two.
“According to the solar calendar, one is July 19th, and the other is August 6th.”
“Will July be too late?” Nan Ge asked softly.
She would have just graduated in early July.
“August then. It’s not much different from July.” After Mrs. Nan finished speaking, she asked the Shen family, “What do you think?”
The Shen family naturally had no objections.
The wedding date was decided just like that.
Nan Ge calculated the time. It was already December. Wouldn’t they be getting engaged in three months?
At the thought of this, she felt a sense of urgency.
She suddenly understood why Shen Yanqing was working on the wedding dress now…
