Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 70: A Small Gathering

“Sister-in-law!” Cheng Che leaned out from the second floor and waved at them.

Song Ning looked up. Since her hands were full, she could not wave to him. Instead, she shouted, “I brought food.”

Cheng Che immediately went in and ran downstairs like a whirlwind as he shouted, “Brother Chen, sister-in-law is here!”

When Cheng Che arrived on the first flow, he discovered Mu Chen had already taken the bags from Song Ning as Song Ning massaged her sore hands.

Jiahui pouted as she stood at the side with a resentful expression. “Hey, aren’t both of you too cruel to torture the eyes of single people like me?”

Cheng Che hurriedly stepped forward and took the bags from Jiahui’s hands as he said, “Please understand. They can’t help themselves. My brother wishes he could turn himself into a necklace around sister-in-law’s neck so he can be with her all the time.”

Jiahui shook her hands and nodded in agreement. “I agree. There’s no one in his eyes but Song Ning. He doesn’t even see me when I’m standing here!”

Cheng Che said with a smile, “Forgive him, you must forgive him!”

Jiahui glanced at the duo who was talking intimately. “I’ll forgive him only because Song Ning’s the only one in his eyes.”

After putting the bags on the table, Cheng Che reached out to shake Jiahui’s hands. “Hello, I’m Cheng Che, Mu Chen’s assistant. I’m his childhood friend as well.”

Jiahui looked at Cheng Che solemnly and shook his hand. “My name is An Jiahui. I’m Song Ning’s classmate and her fan. She’s my idol so I’ll always protect her!” She looked rather proud as though she was declaring sovereignty over Song Ning.

Cheng Che seemed slightly taken aback by Jiahui’s words. He glanced at Mu Chen and Song Ning before he said, “But my sister-in-law has my brother now. My brother will protect her.”

Jiahui crossed her arms. “He’s still in the trial period; I’m observing him closely! If he doesn’t treat Song Ning well, he’ll be out with three strikes. I won’t allow anyone to bully Song Ning. She’s the treasure of our class!”

Cheng Che gave Jiahui a thumbs up. “Awesome!”

Cheng Che suddenly realized Mu Chen seemed to have golden hands. Mu Chen randomly selected a girl by the roadside, but the girl had so many identities, each one more explosive than the other. Not only were her identities mind-blowing, but she was also very popular.

When Song Ning saw Cheng Che and Jiahui talking, she walked over to the table and opened up the bag that contained the food. “Both of you must be hungry, right? We brought a lot of food.”

Upon seeing this, Jiahui hurried over to help Song Ning.

Cheng Che leaned over and grabbed a sausage from the container before giving Song Ning a thumbs-up. “Sister-in-law, you’re really considerate and kind. My brother is inhumane. Originally, I wanted to order takeaway, but he insisted on waiting for you to bring food.”

Mu Chen threw a bun at Cheng Che. “You can’t stop talking even when you’re eating!”

Song Ning and Jiahui brought food and drinks out before placing them on the table before Song Ning said apologetically, “Let’s eat something simple for now. When we have the weekend off, I’ll cook for everyone.”

Cheng Che’s eyes widened in excitement as he said, ‘Really? Sister-in-law, I heard from Sister Yu that your cooking is especially delicious. She said that Grandma can’t live without eating the food you cook now.”

Song Ning replied with a smile, “Come over during the weekend and you can try it for yourself.”

“Alright! Brother Chen, you better not make me work overtime during the weekend. If you do that, I’ll complain to Grandma!” Cheng Che hurriedly said before Mu Chen could object.

“I want to go as well!” Jiahui chimed in. Seeing her idol about to be snatched away, she could not stay idle.

Song Ning glanced at Cheng Che briefly before she smiled at Jiahui and said, “Can you be more reserved? Wait for me to invite you first. At that time, you can decline or accept the invitation.”

Jiahui blinked her big eyes in confusion. “Why?”

Song Ning smiled but did not say anything.

Therefore, Jiahui turned around to look at Cheng Che with her big and round eyes and asked, “Why?”

Cheng Che’s mind went blank when he saw those big eyes. He was at loss for words.

Song Ning could not help but chuckle softly; she found it funny. She patted Jiahui’s head and said, “Because you’re a girl. Being reserved can make the boy who likes you work harder to pursue you…”

Jiahui did not take Song Ning’s words to heart. She said, “Let’s talk about this when someone actually likes me. Moreover, what if that person likes my unrestrained behavior? At that time, wouldn’t my being reserved cause me to miss out on him?”

Cheng Che hurriedly chimed in, “That’s right. You’re right!”

Song Ning laughed so hard that she leaned on Mu Chen’s body.

Mu Chen could not help but smile as well.

“Did I say something wrong? Ning Ning, what’s wrong with you?” Jiahui asked in confusion. A displeased expression appeared soon after on her face; she felt like the butt of the joke for some reason.

Song Ning hurriedly stopped laughing and tried to placate Jiahui. “Alright, alright, I won’t laugh anymore.” Then, she turned to Cheng Che and said, “Cheng Che, the road ahead of you is a long one…”

Cheng Che handed Song Ning a bottle of drink as he said, “It’s not a problem at all. Thank you, sister-in-law!”
