Chapter 187: Marry You Earlier
Xu Wanwan’s voice was very soft, but it was very clear. “Besides, I think girls should work hard and have their own careers.”
“I also want to work hard so that I have the right to stand by Li Jingran’s side. Just as you said, if the Li Corporation is really in trouble in the future, I can also take care of things for Jingran.”
Mother Li was inexplicably speechless.
Those words were just her excuse to force Xu Wanwan away.
In fact, the Li Corporation had already developed like the sun at noon. How could they face such a difficult situation?
Even if they really encountered a difficult situation, there were so many elites in the Li Corporation, so there was no need for Xu Wanwan to stand out.
Just as Mother Li showed a dissatisfied look and was about to retort, she heard Li Jingran’s calm voice beside her—
“Wanwan is right. I don’t have any objections.”
“We don’t agree!” Father and Mother Li said in unison.
“Even if Xiao Xu wants to pursue his own career, marriage and pursuing a career are not in conflict.”
“Back then, when I was with your father, I was also in charge of the family business. What would it look like if a young man nowadays could manage his marriage and career?”
The situation became awkward for a while. Both sides had their own opinions and refused to back down.
“In my opinion, why don’t both of you take a step back?” Master Nanshan suddenly cleared his throat and said seriously, “Little Xu, you should get married to Jingran as soon as possible. This way, you can use your relationship.”
“As for the matter of giving birth, we can discuss it after you graduate. As parents, don’t be so anxious.”
Father and Mother Li were still unhappy, but their expressions were a little better.
After all, it was good to get married as soon as possible. They were already married, so why would they be worried about not having a grandson?
Mother Li glanced at Xu Wanwan meaningfully and said in a friendly manner, “Little Xu, I think your Master is right. Why don’t you settle the marriage with Jingran as soon as possible?”
Xu Wanwan was stunned for a moment and did not know how to react.
To be honest, she had no intention of getting married that early.
In the past, she had thought of waiting until after graduation before mentioning marriage, but now…
“Little Xu, just listen to your Master.”
Master Nanshan glanced at his disciple and said earnestly, “Jingran is a pretty good kid. You should get together with him soon. If he dares to bully you in the future, as your Master, I can also speak up for you.”
Xu Wanwan looked at the man beside her hesitantly, and the hand under her body silently tugged at his sleeve, as if asking what to do.
Li Jingran raised his eyebrows slightly, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “Then listen to Master.”
Xu Wanwan’s eyes widened with a hint of disbelief.
Didn’t he say that he would listen to her just now?
Why would he listen to Master now?
Of course, Li Jingran saw the doubt in the girl’s eyes. He chuckled and said in a low voice, “Who said that I don’t want to get married early?”
If it weren’t for the fact that he was afraid of delaying her studies, he would have wanted to marry her as soon as possible.
Xu Wanwan swallowed her saliva and became absent-minded for a moment.
She didn’t expect that she would get married before she even celebrated her nineteenth birthday?
Such a sudden thing had never crossed her mind.
However, everyone present became happy and were discussing the wedding together.
Father Li directly got someone to take the almanac and looked at it carefully. “Next Sunday is a good day. Let’s set the wedding date on that day.”
“Isn’t it a little too early?” Xu Wanwan was really unable to accept it and asked softly.
“Early for what? If it weren’t for the lack of good days in the next few days, we would have been eager to set the wedding date in two days.” Mother Li smiled and said, “There’s still a long way to go before next week. You guys have plenty of time to prepare.”
Xu Wanwan bit her lip and secretly counted the days with her fingers.
Today was Tuesday, and it was less than ten days away from next Sunday.
Mother Li chuckled and said, “Oh right, our Li family’s wedding must be lively. Remember to call over all your classmates and teachers from school.”
“We also have quite a few old friends who’d want to be invited by us. When the time comes, it will definitely be very lively.”
“Alright, you guys go back and get ready. Come over in a few days and we’ll discuss the wedding in detail.” Father Li waved his hand and said in a good mood.
Xu Wanwan felt as if she was completely arranged. She did not have the chance to interrupt the whole time, and by the time she reacted, she was already being pulled up by Li Jingran.
She said with a stiff expression, “Uncle, Aunt, Master, goodbye...”
After leaving the Li residence, Xu Wanwan took a deep breath and unhappily shook off the man’s hand.
Li Jingran looked down at her. “What’s wrong?”
“You’re still asking me what’s wrong?” Xu Wanwan argued with him angrily. “Didn’t we agree to wait for me to graduate before getting married? Isn’t it a little too early to get married now?”
Li Jingran’s tone was indifferent. “I can’t wait.”
Xu Wanwan was so angry that she took a deep breath, but there was nothing she could do.
Li Jingran’s parents’ attitude was already very obvious, and her Master was also speaking up for her. How could she beat so many of them by herself? She had no choice but to accept them.
While she was angry, there was a warm force around her waist.
Li Jingran had naturally wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned over to her ear, his voice low. “I love you.”
The man’s voice was brimming with his hormones. This sudden confession made Xu Wanwan feel like surrendering.
She had never heard him say that before…
With just that one sentence, Xu Wanwan had forgotten why she was angry and even forgot how to argue with him.
Her neck was radiating heat that burned all the way to her cheeks.
“I love you and want to marry you as soon as possible. Is that wrong?” Li Jingran spoke again, but there was a hint of grievance in his voice.
Xu Wanwan instantly surrendered. “No problem. Let’s get married as soon as possible.”
As long as they didn’t have children so early. They were living together now anyway. If they got married as soon as possible, they could be together openly.
A few days later, the entire Li family was preparing for the upcoming wedding banquet. The servants were busy setting up and cleaning.
The Butler made invitations and created invitation lists. He did not miss any details and attached great importance to them.
The only person who couldn’t get used to it was Xu Wanwan. Although she had lived in the Li family home for a long time, she was about to become Li Jingran’s wife. This identity change seemed to be a little big…
However, Lin Jianan seemed to be more excited than her. Every time, she would pull her to discuss marriage.
Xu Wanwan was designing her work upstairs when the ding dong sound came from her phone.
She did not need to look to know that it was a message from Lin Jianan.
After she finished drawing the last detail at hand, Xu Wanwan picked up her phone and took a look. She saw a few photos of the wedding dress pop up in the dialog box.
Lin Jianan: “Wanwan, look at the wedding dress I picked for you. Which one do you think looks better?”
