I insist

Chapter 381: Someone Else

Yan Yufan and Yu Huailin, who were locked outside the door, listened the whole time. Of course, they couldn't hear Song Miqiu speaking softly when she removed the human skin mask.

At this moment, Yu Huailin wanted to rush in, but he held back because he remembered that this was Aunt Yu's territory and it was her birthday banquet.

Aunt Yu looked at the time and slowly revealed her true feelings: she had long had the idea of ​​making Song Miqiu her daughter-in-law.

"You've already taken care of your child, started a family, and established a career, but you haven't thought about finding someone reliable for yourself."

Song Miqiu quickly smiled, thinking that Aunt Yu was introducing someone to her.

"Aunt Yu, I've only just received it. There's still a long time to go. We'll talk about it later."

Song Miqiu is living such a carefree life now, how could she possibly go back to taking care of her husband and home? One Tian Yumei is enough for her.

Aunt Yu saw that Song Miqiu was still making excuses and had no intention of giving up.

"It was bound to happen sooner or later anyway."

Song Miqiu remained silent this time, thinking to himself, "Why do people in both modern and ancient times always love to meddle in other people's marriages?"

Aunt Yu then asked, "What do you think of Yan Yufan?"

Hearing her ask this, Song Miqiu panicked. It turned out she wanted to introduce her son to her.

But Song Miqiu couldn't just refuse right away.

“Yan Yufan is too much older than me. Aunt Yu, you should find Yan Yufan a young, unmarried woman.”

Song Miqiu's words were already very clear.

Aunt Yu was determined to make Song Miqiu her daughter-in-law, which would fulfill the dying wish of Song Miqiu's mother.

"Song Miqiu, you are the only one in my heart who is the best daughter-in-law. No matter who else is better, I will not be interested in them."

This left Song Miqiu speechless.

The two people outside the door overheard this conversation, and Yan Yufan was surprised that his mother was just as happy as he was.

Yu Huailin couldn't hold back any longer. He had long known that Yan Yufan's invitation to Song Miqiu was not for good purposes, so he sent his mother to persuade Song Miqiu.

Yu Huailin was about to rush in before he could finish speaking, but Yan Yufan stopped him the next second.

"Where are you going?"

"You know perfectly well why I'm asking. I absolutely cannot let Song Miqiu marry you. Don't even think about it."

Hearing Yu Huailin say this, Yan Yufan was even more determined not to let him in.

After all, the two were of vastly different strengths. Yu Huailin easily pulled Yan Yufan aside and pushed open the door to enter.

Just as Aunt Yu was about to say something more, Yu Huailin, who pushed the door open, interrupted her.

What are you doing here?

Aunt Yu looked at Yu Huailin with a hint of anger.

Yu Huailin was not intimidated at all. He rushed in and pulled Song Miqiu, who was sitting on the bed, to his side.

At this moment, Yan Yufan, who had just realized what was happening, rushed in as well, and now everyone was together.

Looking at the expressions on the two faces, Aunt Yu turned to Yan Yufan and asked.

"Son, tell me what exactly happened?"

Yu Huailin answered before Yan Yufan could speak.

"Song Miqiu could never marry into your family."

Aunt Yu laughed; no one had ever dared to speak to her like that before.

"Young man, you have quite the big mouth. One should not be so arrogant."

Yu Huailin didn't have time to worry about that now.

“I know your standing in the underworld, but this is simply not going to work.”

Aunt Yu glanced at Song Miqiu and asked, "Miqiu, tell me, who exactly is this person and what is their relationship with you?"

Song Miqiu was caught in the middle between the two men, torn between them, and couldn't bear to hurt either of them.

"Aunt Yu, please calm down. He's just teasing you."

Song Miqiu could only speak in a gentle manner for now, while constantly tugging at Yu Huailin's sleeve to stop him.

Aunt Yu, being a woman of strong character, said, "Very well, since Mi Qiu says so, I'll bring up your marriage today. Whether it's a good match or not can be discussed later. It's not for outsiders to say."

Aunt Yu's words implied a rejection of Yu Huailin.

In his haste, Yu Huailin blurted out, "Song Miqiu and I have been engaged for a long time."

"What?" Yan Yufan's questioning voice could be heard.

These words were like a bombshell, and both Aunt Yu and Yao Yanyufan looked at Song Miqiu at the same time.

Aunt Yu was clearly angry. "Did Mi Qiu really do this?"

Song Miqiu answered Aunt Yu's question without the slightest hesitation.

"That was all a long time ago. I already have someone I like, so you don't need to worry about me, Aunt Yu."

No one expected Song Miqiu to give such an answer.

Yu Huailin looked at Song Miqiu in disbelief, wanting to hear an explanation.

Looking at Aunt Yu, Song Miqiu continued, "I know you mean well. You treat me like a daughter, and I treat you like a mother. Some things can't be forced."

Aunt Yu was heartbroken and had no choice but to give up.

Looking at Yan Yufan, she said, "It seems my son doesn't have that kind of luck."

But she quickly accepted it, saying, "Bring me over for a meal sometime, we can chat, you know?"

Song Miqiu smiled and nodded.

Yan Yufan wanted to say something more, but Aunt Yu stopped her in time.

"Alright, there's no need to say anything more. The banquet should be starting soon. I won't talk to you here anymore. You should come over here quickly."

When he left, he took Yan Yufan with him.

After the two left, only Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin remained in the room.

Song Miqiu thought the matter was over, so he also walked out.

Seeing Yu Huailin still standing there, he said to him, "Why aren't you leaving?"

Yu Huailin's face darkened. "You have someone you like? What am I then? You really don't want anyone to know we're together?"

Song Miqiu then realized why Yu Huailin had a dark expression, but she wasn't angry with him; she just thought he was quite cute now.

Still wanting to tease him, I deliberately said, "So that's why you're standing here mad at me?"

Song Miqiu simply wouldn't say.

Yu Huailin still had a long face, "Am I really nothing to you?"

Thinking back to when I first met Yu Huailin, his manly spirit... just seeing him today almost makes me cry.

Song Miqiu couldn't bear it and went over to him, taking his hand.

"You don't trust me that much? I only said what I wanted to say so that Aunt Yu would stop bothering me. Can't you even understand something as simple as this?"

Yu Huailin was still half-believing and half-doubting, only feeling that the harm he had just received was too great.

"really?"

Song Miqiu then stopped teasing him and cupped Yu Huailin's face in her hands, responding very seriously.

"Of course it's true. You silly goose, how can you be so cute? If I don't like you, who else would I like?"

Yu Huailin then stopped being angry.

Song Miqiu then slowly explained to him why she had said those things earlier.

“Aunt Yu is proud. If I told her that I was engaged to you, wouldn’t that be slapping her in the face right there and then?”

“Aunt Yu is the only elder I can rely on after my mother passed away. I said those things because I didn’t want to hurt her. Can you understand me?”
