Chapter 449 (1/2)
My engagement is inevitable. Looking at myself in the mirror with a standard figure and a resolute smile on my face, I have a moment to shake my mind.
Is the person in the mirror himself? I try my best to meet him in my life and try my best to become better just to get engaged to a girl I don't know very well?
”Every day, almost out.” Mother knocked outside, ”don't delay the auspicious time, the guests are coming.”
I rubbed my face to make my smile more natural, and then opened the door.
Standing outside is my mother, see me, her expression has a kind of speechless things, like happy, but mixed with other.
She is much shorter than me now, looking up at me with a happy face and saying, ”I grow up every day.”
Then he came over and helped me with my clothes. He said, ”let's go. All the guests are here.”
I looked at my mother, and suddenly I felt a little uncomfortable. For so many years, I didn't see her seriously. Today, I found that my mother was really old.
”By the way, I invite Lin Leyi every day.” When I came to the door of the hall, my mother said as if nothing had happened.
I stopped and asked, ”why did you invite her?”
I don't want her to witness my engagement. I always feel that if she doesn't see this scene, I still have a chance. In the previous days and nights, I was most puzzled about whether to get engaged or not. After I finally made up my mind, I didn't want her to know, at least I didn't want her to see it as a witness.
”Why not? If she is not the kind of girl I imagined, she will sincerely bless you. Isn't that good? By the way, clarify her relationship with you, so as to avoid the Jia family's gossiping. Besides, coming to such a party and making her know a few friends will also help her in her future work. ” My mother looked at me with irrefutable eyes.
”Mom, how many times have you talked to her?” I suddenly cold face, for their excessive interference in my life, I really feel enough, ”I have agreed to engagement, you want to prove something meaningful?”
”Every day, something is always meaningful.” She looked at me, ”no matter how good Lin Leyi is, it's not suitable for you.”
I stopped and really didn't want to go one step further.
”Every day, when you come to this time, can you follow your mother once?” My mother immediately understood the meaning of standing where I was. She looked back at me very seriously and said, ”you're an adult. You can't be willful. Mom did talk to Lin Leyi behind your back. She made it clear that she didn't have that kind of feelings for you. I can see that he Liancheng is the one she really likes. It really doesn't hurt her to ask her to come this time. My mother just wants you to recognize that. ”
I listened to these words, the only soap bubble left in my heart cracked.
Take a deep breath, look at my mother, I turned into the hall.
I saw her figure in the distance, near a table in the corner.
The whole hall was full of joy and festive atmosphere. She also wore a slightly bright dress, her hair curled in her head, her face put on proper light makeup, and looked at the people with a smile, as if all this was just acting.
My mother also saw her and praised her: ”I have investigated her background. She grew up in a good environment, and her parents are also of high quality. However, her family is in a state of decline, and she has to go to this point, but she is really a strong and decent girl.”
I didn't speak. In my mother's eyes, these are her only advantages. And in my eyes, I see her advantages are not these.
She saw me from a distance, nodded with a smile, as a greeting.
I no longer dare to look at her directly. I look back at other people, and then I see Jia Yuhan coming out like a star holding the moon.
Jia Yuhan is a beautiful and dazzling girl, but her beauty makes people feel very fragile. Just look at her and you can know what she is thinking. Her arrogance and willfulness are written on her face, disdaining to hide.
As for Jia Yuhan, I didn't mean any harm. After all, I was the one designated by my parents, so I should be no worse.
Today, she is dressed in a formal dress with exquisite makeup, surrounded by a group of little sisters.
When she saw me, she gave me a brilliant smile. I'm afraid to see her smile. I'm engaged to her, but I don't want to.
I think I can feel this tangle of Jia Yuhan. When she first looked at me, the light in her eyes was very soft, but Rui's eyes became more and more rigid, not like a girl.
But, I have no ability to change this situation, maybe it is unfair to her and me.I really don't dare to think why, knowing that they have no feeling, they still want to play this engagement play like puppets, and maybe they will play it for decades in the future.
I dare not think about this problem. It's all fear.
My parents' friends, colleagues, old friends and classmates came. I stood beside my parents and listened to others praise my parents, saying that they had a promising young son. No one mentioned me again, just like the mouse who was afraid of light, afraid of seeing people, and afraid of associating with people.
I carry wine with them, inadvertently see Lin Leyi looking at me, her eyes are flat, there are a lot of comfort, like a sister looking at my brother. This kind of feeling makes me particularly uncomfortable.
