270 Shes just looking out for you (2/2)

Liu Wei chuckled;

I'm afraid that she'll turn me down if I propose to her, so I just want to live in the moment and not think about it.

My grandparents are coming back in a few months' time, if I can get them to accept Liling, then I will go on with the wedding but for now, it's not quite possible. She doesn't want me going against my family because of her. ''

Liu Wei explained, twirling his glass; when he finished speaking, he pushed his head backwards and took it all in one gulp.

Jin Yue was quiet for a moment, ''She's just looking out for you. ''

''Yeah, I know, but I told her I have enough money to last us a lifetime but she says family comes first. ''

Jin Yue understood Liling from her point of view. Liu Wei was the only son and only child; it was going to be selfish to make him leave his family because of her.

''To think the woman he wants me to marry tried to hurt her. ''

Liu Wei said, scoffing.

”'Wait, I didn't hear that part clearly, come again?''

Jin Yue was beyond shocked.

''I can't even remember her name, but she caused those lights to fall; I let her go because Liling did not get scratched. If she had harmed even a hair on her body, she wouldn't even be alive to tell the tale.

I wonder what she was thinking, that if she killed Liling, I would marry her?  Some people are just hilarious! If I can't get my grandparent's approval for me to marry Liling, and Liling refuses to marry me, then I'll wed no-one else.  ''

''This is serious. And he still wants you to marry her?''

''Obviously, he's just quiet for the moment because, you know, what she did was very grievous. ''

''Wow, I'm shocked beyond words. But have you tried getting her pregnant? I don't think your father would want your child outside the family. ''

Liu Wei eyes shook. He was quiet for a while.

''Now you've mentioned it, I can't remember the last time we used protection, but since she had not missed her periods, she's not pregnant. And yes, I've thought about that, but you know Liling's career is just beginning; having a baby now would be quite unfair to her. ''

Jin Yue sighed;

''Yeah ''

Silence ensued as Jin Yue's mind thought back to his own child he had caused to die. If only he could turn back the hands of time.

As though Liu Wei sensed what Jin Yue was thinking, he quickly changed the topic.

'' I'm going to America to sort out some issues for about two weeks, and I'm still wondering how I'll tell Liling about it. ''

''What? ''

Jin Yue burst out laughing. ''You sure know you are going no-where right? ''

Liu Wei sighed.

''You're such a bad energy, I'm looking for advice and you are here making the matter worse! ''
