Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 839: Comfort

Cheng Che smiled bitterly. “It’s nothing. I’m just a little overwhelmed now. Tell me, what’s going on exactly? Why are there so many things happening and so many people appearing out of nowhere?”

Jiahui leaned her head against Cheng Che’s shoulder before she said, “What does it matter? These things will happen sooner or later. It’s not something we can control. Don’t get bogged down by all these things. Just treat it like a project. When the dust settles, we’ll still be us. We have Grandma, Mu Chen, Song Ning, and Little Mu Lan. We’ll still be a happy family. You can acknowledge whoever you want, and you can also choose not to acknowledge them. In short, you can do whatever you want.”

Cheng Che did not say anything.

Jiahui patted his back and said, “Cheng Che, Grandma and Mu Chen said that you’re very calm when you’re dealing with work. You’ve even gained such a good reputation over the years. Why are you hesitant when it comes to this? Isn’t it because it involves emotions? Although I know nothing about running a business, I know that once your feelings are involved, it’ll definitely complicate even the simplest thing. For example, as doctors, we avoid treating family members. Why? Because we’ll let our emotions cloud our judgment, causing us to be irrational and unable to see or act objectively. As a result, we are like to make the wrong call. What do you think?”

Cheng Che turned his head and pulled Jiahui into his arms. He kissed her lightly on the top of her head and said, “You’re my angel.”

Jiahui knew that Cheng Che had listened to her words.

Cheng Che held her and leaned against the couch. He sighed softly and said, “My goal in life is actually very simple. I wanted to run my business, produce movies, and earn money. Later on, I met you, and I wanted to marry you and have two babies. We’ll be a family of four. We’ll have three meals a day together, and we’ll go through the four seasons together. Isn’t that wonderful? We both have our careers, and our children will grow up in a loving environment. Isn’t that happiness?”

Jiahui nodded slightly. “I like the days you described. You’ll have to help the children with their homework. Otherwise, if they don’t listen to me, I’ll definitely lose my temper.”

.....

Cheng Che smiled gently. That kind of ordinary day was what he yearned for the most.

Jiahui continued to say, “Let’s just stay by Grandma’s side for now. After all, she’s getting older. Song Ning and I are around so we can keep an eye on her as well. When we have a child, Little Mu Lan will have a companion. Isn’t it good as well?”

Cheng Che smiled. “Okay. Our children will be just like me and Brother Chen when we were young. Brother has always taken the blame for me. It’s especially good to have an older brother.”

Jiahui nodded as she lay in his arms. “It’s a deal then!” Then, she raised her head to look at Cheng Che solemnly.

A hint of sadness could be seen in Cheng Che’s eyes as he said, “Jiahui, Grandma, Brother Chen, and even sister-in-law have always treated me like family, and I also treat them like my family...”

Jiahui seemed to understand his thoughts. She said, “What do you mean by ‘treat you like family’? You’re a family, to begin with. Do you know what Grandma told me?”

Cheng Che looked at her curiously.

Jiahui covered her mouth and laughed before she said, “Grandma said that in the future, when she divides the family assets, she’ll give us a bigger share, and Mu Chen and Song Ning will get a smaller share. I asked her why can’t it be split equally, and she said humans are biased. She said elderly people love the youngest and that the eldest will have to rely on his or her own effort.”

Cheng Che’s eyes were slightly wet with tears.

Then, Jiahui said proudly, “That’s why we have to stay close to Grandma and compete with Mu Chen and Song Ning every day! The most important thing is that Grandma will be happy!”

Cheng Che nodded slightly and said in a slightly hoarse voice, “Okay. We’ll stay by Grandma’s side.”
