Lord Song kept nodding. He was very pleased with Kong Siyu...
Once Lord Song finished speaking with him, Madam Song took over:
"Young Master Kong, how did you and Yaoyao meet?"
"Madam, when I was being bullied, the Princess saved me."
"So you and Yaoyao..."
"I was the one who fell for the Princess."
"That's good, then."
As long as Yaoyao hadn't forced herself on him.
Madam Song continued asking:
"Young Master Kong, when do you intend to come and formally propose marriage?"
Song Yaoyao jumped in fright. This was only their first meeting, and her mother was already that eager to marry her off?
Song Yaoyao immediately stood up and said to Kong Siyu:
"Young Master Kong, let's leave it here for today. You should head home!"
Kong Siyu stood up, nodded, and said:
"All right."
Kong Siyu bowed to Lord Song and Madam Song and said:
"Marquis, Madam, I'll take my leave now."
Lord Song nodded and said:
"All right. Yaoyao, see Young Master Kong out."
"Yes."
After seeing Kong Siyu off, Song Yaoyao headed back.
Song Yaoyao: [What is my mother trying to do?
She's in such a hurry to ask about a marriage proposal, as though she's terrified no one will marry me.]
Guagua: [Well, you're already twenty, and your marriage still isn't settled.
They really are getting anxious.]
Song Yaoyao: [Even so, she can't ask him about proposing on their very first meeting! That was so awkward.]
Guagua: [Host, what are you going to do next?]
Song Yaoyao: [Obviously, I can't let Kong Siyu come over again. If my mother runs into him and asks when he'll come to propose, the truth will definitely come out.
*I only wanted Kong Siyu to help me deal with my parents. I never intended to actually get engaged
