Chapter 972: Chapter 972 Incoming Call Chapter 972: Chapter 972 Incoming Call The phone in the house suddenly rang, pulling Shen Mianmian back from her thoughts. Seeing Yang Xiaoxi with food in her mouth and hands, Shen stood up.
“I’m going to answer the phone.”
This call was most likely for her, as Principal Yang always called around seven o’clock on Sunday evenings to talk to Xiaoxi; he didn’t call at other tis.
“Mianmian.”
Picking up the phone, Xiaocui’s voice ca through from the other end.
It had been about ten days since Xiaocui had last called. Hearing her voice, Shen Mianmian felt the warmth of family and found it exceptionally endearing.
“Xiaocui, have you eaten?”
“I have,” Xiaocui replied, barely containing her excitent, “Mianmian, there’s sothing I want to tell you.”
“What is it?” asked Shen Mianmian.
Xiaocui was a bit embarrassed and hesitated for a mont before whispering, “Mianmian, Dajun and I are dating now.”
At her words, Shen Mianmian burst into laughter, “That’s wonderful news! Dajun is a good man; I always thought you two were well-suited. By the way, do you have your mother’s approval to date Dajun?”
Although Madam Liu was reasonable, Dajun’s slight disability and Xiaocui’s current accomplishnts could make it understandable if Madam Liu didn’t approve.
“She agreed.” Xiaocui’s voice was filled with joy as she shared the recent events with Shen Mianmian, “After the New Year, there were people coming to propose marriage to . Because I work at the store and couldn’t go ho often, the matchmakers brought people to the store. Dajun saw them that day, and afterwards, he seed a bit off. Then a couple of days later, he waited for after work and confessed his feelings on the way ho.”
Recalling the day’s events made Xiaocui’s cheeks uncontrollably blush, “I was surprised at the ti. I’ve always had a good impression of Dajun, but I never expected that he liked too.”
Although Dajun was always nice to her, Xiaocui dared not think too much into it until he expressed his feelings.
Shen Mianmian laughed, “I noticed Dajun was interested in you before, but I didn’t want to pressure you and wasn’t sure if you felt the sa, so I didn’t tell you.”
“You noticed it too?” Xiaocui was surprised, “It’s good you didn’t tell , or I might have felt really uncomfortable. I heard before that Dajun’s family was arranging blind dates for him, and I felt weird about it at the ti. Later, when I heard that nothing ca of it, I was actually happy.”
Maybe she had fallen for Dajun by then!
Even though Dajun had issues with his leg, he was otherwise entirely fine and could provide a living. In the countryside, many won wanted to marry him to live a good life.
Shen Mianmian chuckled, “Dajun’s leg isn’t that big of a problem; it’s hardly noticeable when he walks. In a couple of years, save up so money and go to a big hospital to see if surgery can fully fix it.”
“That’s what I was thinking too,” said Xiaocui, feeling that Shen Mianmian had touched on her innermost thoughts, “Yesterday when I went ho, I was planning to talk about it with my mom myself. Dajun was worried she wouldn’t agree and might get angry with , so he ca with .”
Thinking back to that mont, Xiaocui still felt a rush of nervousness, “I was afraid my mom would disagree and say unpleasant things to Dajun, but to my surprise, she didn’t just not oppose; she was delighted. Later, she told in private that Dajun is a solid and reliable man, soone you can build a life with.”
