The President is Being Shameless Again-Chapter 356: : There’s Nothing More Important Than The Two Of Us Being

Together. We’re Indifferent Toward Other Disturbances.

The two walked hand in hand under the setting sun. The blazing multicolored rays from the sunset painted their bodies, making their originally black colored hair look coppery from the lighting.

She turned her head to look at Wei Zilin’s increasingly bright and glossy profile under the glowing lights. She could not help but think about the words he had posted on Weibo earlier.

This was a form of confession, right?

Although he had said it before on Valentine’s Day, after seeing it again, she still felt an inexpressible feeling of warmth.

Wei Zilin looked down and saw their elongated silhouettes on the ground. His was good-looking, tall, and long, as if it had been created through an art process. The field was illuminated by the setting sun and was somewhat reddish. The long shadow cast against the ground, making it seem as though someone had painted on it. The whole scene was cozy and comforting.

While staring at the shadow on the ground, Wei Zilin leaned toward Xu Moyan and took her hand. Then, he took his phone out and took a picture of the shadow of their holding hands.

The figure was stretched out, and it seemed like Wei Zilin was much taller than her.

Wei Zilin lowered his head as he posted on Weibo: “There are some things that people care about, but we don’t really worry about it at all. There’s nothing more important than the two of us being together. We’re indifferent toward everything else.”

Xu Moyan reposted it while swelling with pride and replied: “Your companionship is the best thing in the world.”

The two of them did not read through the envious comments and blessings they were getting from their fans. Instead, they just smiled at each other and went home.

Li Lanying was busy washing vegetables in the kitchen when Xu Moyan left to clean up. She quickly entered the kitchen to help out.

“There’s nothing here that needs your help, so go and accompany Zilin instead.” Li Lanying said.

“He’s chatting with dad, so let them get along with each other.” Xu Moyan said before hugging Li Lanying. “Moreover, I’m going back to B City tomorrow. Don’t you want to hang out with your daughter?”

Li Lanying laughed. For the first time since Xu Moyan had returned home, she showed an unwilling expression.

She wiped her wet hands on her apron and caressed Xu Moyan’s hair. “Of course I do. It’s rare for you to come home, so your dad and I are so happy. Now that you have a boyfriend, we don’t have much worry anymore. We’ll just wait for you to get married, then we can rest easy. Zilin is a good man and he can take care of you. When you’re all alone in B City, we’re constantly afraid that you’re struggling, or that you won’t let us know when you’re going through rough times.”

“It’s alright, mom. I’m getting better now. I’ve adapted to life in B City and made more money than before. I have ample money at hand now, so you no longer have to worry about me.” Xu Moyan hugged Li Lanying’s arm.

She always knew that her parents were uneasy with her being in B City all alone. It was just that she had never heard Li Lanying say it out loud. Now that she had heard it first-hand, the tip of her nose began to ache.

Li Lanying smoothened her hair and said, “I know your job’s quite tiring, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself. If you can no longer take it, just quit your job. Do what makes you feel comfortable – mom and dad can still support you.”

“Mom, what are you saying? No job will ever give you a hundred percent satisfaction. I’m really fine now, so don’t worry about me. If I’m no longer happy, I’ll definitely come and complain to you.” Xu Moyan rarely acted coquettishly around Li Lanying.

Li Lanying smiled and nodded. “Alright, then help me peel the potatoes. If you keep hugging me, I won’t be able to work. If this continues, I don’t know when we’ll be able to eat.”

“Mom, why don’t you go and rest. I’ll do the rest.” Xu Moyan said.

She was a great chef. However, she could only come back during long holidays due to work.

Li Lanying thought that she was already working hard in B City, so whenever she came home, her parents would never let her do anything. They would insist on her living like a parasite and would want her to just vegetate around the house.

Even if she slept until 12 o’clock, no one would bother her, and they would remind each other to whisper. If someone accidentally raised their voice, the other person would glare at them. “Be quiet, my baby girl is sleeping!”

Although the parents never said anything out loud, their actions were enough to show their love for her.

However, since she started working in B City, she could not spend a lot of time with them. She felt distressed by this, and her eyes started getting wet and reddish.

“There’s no need. You just rest after peeling the potatoes.” Li Lanying said, refusing to let Xu Moyan help out. “There is a lot of soot and oil in the kitchen. You’re still young, so you can’t let your skin be damaged by these oily fumes.”

“Mom.” Xu Moyan simply took the apron off of Li Lanying’s body. “Let me do it just this once. If you can’t bear it, then just sit here and talk to me. My culinary skills are quite good, but you constantly feel bad for me and never allow me to do anything. As a result, I’ve never prepared a single meal for you guys. I’m going back to B City tomorrow, so let me have this opportunity.”

There was a strange atmosphere in the room. The last time she came home, there was no such uncomfortableness between them.

Li Lanying nodded silently as she tried hard to conceal her moist eyes.

Afterward, Xu Moyan gave it a thought and reckoned that Wei Zilin’s sudden appearance in their lives made Li Lanying feel that her daughter was getting married soon. This was why she felt the sorrow of a parting heart.

In the past, when Xu Moyan was single, Li Lanying would busy herself looking for a match for her. However, she did not feel the sorrow at the time.

Now that it was nearly time for her to get married, she started to resent the whole scenario and felt reluctant. This was especially so because Wei Zilin had such a prestigious family background.

Li Lanying had never been in contact with a wealthy person of Wei Zilin’s status in her life. There were parents of students in the school that had a business of their own, but compared them to the Wei Family business, it was nothing. Therefore, Li Lanying actually had no idea how to face the situation.

She did not know how Xu Moyan would handle being the daughter-in-law of a rich and powerful family. Would she be restricted by many rules and customs? And how would she interact with her husband’s family?

All these things made Li Lanying feel reluctant to marry off her daughter. When her daughter was single, she could be pampered and raised at home. Now that she was getting married, she needed to bear and raise children for her husband to start her own family. It would be unavoidable for her to drift apart from her own maiden family as the focus of her life would shift toward her new family.

The in-law’s family would not be better than her flesh and blood. They would never take care of her daughter as selflessly as she did. If there was ever a confrontation between them, she could only be patient as she could no longer speak so unequivocally as she would at home. Perhaps due to Wei Zilin’s background, but she would need not worry about worldly matters. However, in return, she needed to bear with much more pressure and responsibilities.

These were always the difficulties faced by married daughters.

Li Lanying felt distressed when she thought about it. It would be nice if she could take care of her daughter and just pamper her for life.

Meanwhile, Xu Moyan turned her back to Li Lanying to prepare for dinner, not knowing that Li Lanying was secretly tearing up. Nevertheless, her emotions were still transmitted, making Xu Moyan’s nose slightly congested.

After they finished preparing dinner, Li Lanying and Xu Moyan brought the food out together.

Although they were both enduring it, one could still see the shakiness in their eyes. Wei Zilin guessed the reason as he thought about them heading back to B City tomorrow.

When the two returned from the cinema, Wei Zilin had deliberately bought two more bottles of Maotai in the mall.

He opened a bottle before pouring a glass for Xu Qingrui. Li Lanying could not drink these spicier types of white liquors, so Wei Zilin poured a glass of red wine for her instead.

Watching the jewel-like liquid in the wine glass, Wei Zilin said, “I’ll leave with Moyan around noon tomorrow.”

Li Lanying was glad to know that they would stay for another morning, but replied, “Will it be too late? You still have to pack up, rest, and go to work the day after tomorrow.”

“It doesn’t matter. There’s nothing to pack, and it’ll feel as though we’re having a vacation day.” Wei Zilin said with a smile before slowly putting on a more solemn expression. “Uncle, aunty, other than coming to meet you this time, I’d like to ask for your permission to let Moyan marry me.”

Even Xu Moyan jumped at this. This was totally different from the original script!

Why did you suddenly jump into talks of marriage? Where was the proposal?!

Li Lanying was also startled as she opened her mouth in bewilderment. She could not utter a single word for a long time. Meanwhile, Xu Qingrui was only having his first sip of alcohol when his jaw dropped.

“This… Isn’t this a bit too fast?” Xu Qingrui said with a hoarse voice. “How long have you two been dating?”

“That’s right.” Li Lanying nodded. She wished for Xu Moyan’s happiness and was also aware of the fact that it would be tough to find a man like Wei Zilin that treated his daughter so well. However, she also felt like it was all happening a little too fast.

“I know this is fast, but since the beginning of my relationship with Moyan, I already decided to marry her. Because it takes a long time to prepare for a wedding, I wanted to ask for uncle and aunty’s blessings beforehand. I started dating Moyan with the expectation to marry her, and that’s why I’m certain that our relationship will eventually develop to marriage. I have never considered anyone else.”

Upon hearing his words, Li Lanying felt comforted as she nodded. “Yes, that’s good. I have no opinion on the marriage between the two of you. What about you, Old Xu?”

Xu Qingrui groaned and drank the alcohol in the glass. “You’re very good toward Moyan. I also have no objections. I just hope that you’ll constantly be this way. I see the way you spoil her, so I just hope that you’ll not start disliking her after spoiling her like this. Especially because no matter how capricious she becomes in the future, it’ll all be because of you. When you get impatient later, just think about these words.”
