Chapter 691 Han Shangyan 77
Han Shangyan couldn't help but laugh when he saw the old man like this.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely treat Huanhuan well and treat her well all my life." Han Shangyan promised solemnly.
The old man patted his shoulder with relief, "Grandpa believes in you. Grandpa also likes Huanhuan, she is a good girl. If you dare to bully her, I will be the first one to not forgive you!"
Han Shangyan smiled and nodded, but in his heart he was thinking, how could he bear to bully her? He wanted to hold her in his palms and hold her in his mouth for fear that she would melt.
Three days later, Han Shangyan woke up early in the morning with dark circles under his eyes, as if his base had been robbed.
He hadn't slept well these past few days, as his mind was full of the proposal. He was worried that Chu Hua's parents would not agree, and then he was thinking about what gifts to prepare. He was even more nervous than when he played in the World Finals.
He rummaged through his boxes and found his most expensive suit. He looked at himself in the mirror again and again, but he always felt something was wrong.
Normally when I wear this to discuss business, I feel like a business elite, a big shot in the eye. But today, I look like a silly boy going to the market.
"Ah..." Han Shangyan sighed and scratched his messy hair. If he went to propose marriage in this image, would his future father-in-law and mother-in-law dislike him?
Just as he was struggling with his thoughts, his cell phone rang. It was his grandfather calling.
"Hello, Grandpa." Han Shangyan answered the phone.
"Han Shangyan, are you all ready? Let's go now!" The old man's powerful voice came from the other end of the phone, and it could be heard that he was more excited than Han Shangyan.
"Okay, I'll go down right away." Han Shangyan hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and encouraged himself: Han Shangyan, you can do it! Isn't it just a marriage proposal? You won so many competitions back then, how can such a small thing stump you?
He hurried out of the door, and as soon as he came downstairs he saw the old man in a Tang suit, standing beside the car in high spirits, holding a large gift box in his hand. The box was wrapped magnificently and it was obvious that it was very valuable.
"Grandpa, what are you doing..." Han Shangyan looked at the gift box, feeling a little amused.
"How can you go to propose marriage empty-handed? This is the best ginseng that I specially prepared!" The old man said with a smile, his eyes full of love for his future granddaughter-in-law.
Han Shangyan shook his head helplessly. This old man was really something. If you didn't know him, you would think he was showing off his wealth. However, he felt warm in his heart. His grandfather's attention to Chu Hua made him more determined to marry her.
When he arrived at Chu Huan's house, Han Shangyan became nervous again and his palms were full of sweat.
He rang the doorbell, but there was no response for a long time. He began to feel nervous: Could it be that Huanhuan's parents deliberately didn't open the door for them? Did they really not agree with this marriage?
The doorbell rang for the third time, and beads of sweat were about to drip down Han Shangyan's forehead. He even imagined the bloody plot in his mind where Chu Huan's parents were serious and refused to open the door, and Huan Huan was crying inside and wanted to see him.
Just when he was about to give up and prepare to call Chu Huan, the door opened with a click.
The person who appeared in front of Han Shangyan was not the future father-in-law and mother-in-law with stern faces as he had imagined, but Chu Hua who was dressed up.
She was wearing a light pink dress that made her skin look whiter than snow. Her long black hair fell softly on her shoulders and she had a shy smile on her face. She looked like a peach bud, delicate and beautiful.
Han Shangyan was stunned for a moment, and his nervousness miraculously disappeared, leaving only a heart full of amazement. He even forgot about proposing marriage, and stood stupidly at the door, like a person whose acupoints had been pressed.
Han Shangyan's grandfather poked him and whispered, "What are you doing standing there like an idiot, you little brat? Why don't you go in quickly?"
Han Shangyan suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and quickly came to his senses. A trace of unnaturalness flashed across his face, and he coughed lightly to cover up his gaffe.
"Hwanwan, you look so beautiful today."
Chu Hua's cheeks turned slightly red. She lowered her head shyly and whispered, "Thank you."
"Come in, don't stand at the door." The old man pushed Han Shangyan and walked in with a smile.
Han Shangyan carried bags of gifts and followed the old man closely, like a puppet.
Chu Hua's parents had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Han Shangyan and the old man come in, they quickly stood up to greet them.
"Uncle Han, welcome, welcome. Please take a seat." Chu Hua's father greeted him warmly.
Chu Hua's mother forced a smile, but her eyes seemed to be glued to Chu Hua and couldn't be moved away.
"Uncle Han, please take a seat." The tone sounded polite, but it revealed an indescribable coldness.
Han Shangyan keenly noticed this and felt a pang in his heart. It seemed that his mother-in-law was still worried about him.
The old man didn't notice the subtle atmosphere. He sat down happily and put the box of beautifully packaged ginseng on the coffee table.
"This is just a small token of my appreciation, not a token of respect."
Chu Hua's mother glanced at the box of ginseng and said with a fake smile, "Uncle Han is too polite. This gift is too valuable. We dare not accept it."
"It should, it should."
The old man cleared his throat, sat upright, and had the air of a superior.
"You two, we are here today to discuss Shang Yan and Huan Huan's marriage with you."
Chu Hua's mother's face froze and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes, but she still maintained superficial politeness.
"Uncle Han, this... isn't it a bit too hasty? The children are still young, I think..."
"No hurry, no hurry." The old man waved his hand and interrupted her.
"Han Shangyan is almost 30 years old, it's time for him to get married and start a family. Huanhuan is such a good girl, our whole family loves her very much, we will feel relieved if she settles down sooner."
Chu Hua's father didn't say anything. He just smiled and poured tea for the old man, looking like a good guy.
Han Shangyan sat aside, feeling like a commodity waiting to be sold, being judged by the elders, feeling a little uncomfortable. He secretly glanced at Chu Hua and found that she was lowering her head, twisting the corner of her clothes with her fingers, looking nervous and uneasy.
He gently touched her hand and gave her a reassuring look. Chu Hua raised her head and smiled at him, her nervousness seemed to ease a little.
Chu Hua's mother put down her teacup, cleared her throat, and put on a smile that seemed friendly but was actually distant.
"Uncle Han, we appreciate your kindness. But Huanhuan is not yet of legal marriage age. Should we wait a little longer before getting married?"
The old man laughed, as if he didn't hear the rejection in his words: "Well, it doesn't matter if we register two years later now! Let's get engaged first, and then get the marriage certificate when Huanhuan reaches the age, isn't it the same?"
