Chapter 1397 - 1239: Before the Wedding
Shi Nuan wanted to ask He Meisui and others for a favor, though it wasn’t a big one. She was racking her brains over the past couple of days, trying to figure out what gift to get Song Yansheng.
She hoped He Meisui and the others could give her some ideas.
Ou Xiaoning blinked and said, "This is easy. For a man like Mr. Song, it isn’t about the value of the gift but the thought behind it. As long as Nuannuan puts thought into it, Mr. Song will definitely like it!"
"That’s easy to say. But even if I put thought into it, I still have to decide what to prepare!"
He Meisui had never been in a relationship, while Ou Xiaoning, who had been dating Wang Sai for four years, clearly had more say in the matter.
Ou Xiaoning said, "Of course you should prepare something Mr. Song likes usually. Cater to his tastes. Like our Wang Sai, remember in sophomore year when he was obsessed with Sylvester Stallone? I even got a friend to get me a signed poster of Stallone, and he loved it!"
He Meisui said, "Mr. Song wouldn’t be so shallow as to chase stars! But you’re right, tailoring gifts to personal interests is key... Nuannuan, what are Mr. Song’s usual hobbies?"
Shi Nuan was taken aback. To talk about Song Yansheng’s hobbies, there were indeed quite a few.
He likes gardening, cooking, playing sports, reading the news, and his work ability is strong too...
But even knowing all this, it’s still hard to decide what gift to give Song Yansheng!
He Meisui and the others were also troubled. They thought that Shi Nuan hadn’t been with Song Yansheng for long, so her understanding of him must be limited.
This is their first birthday after becoming a couple. After Song Yansheng’s birthday, he’ll reach his thirties, which makes this birthday quite important.
Ou Xiaoning said, "Actually, at Mr. Song’s age, he has everything he needs, except maybe a wife and kid. How about, Nuannuan, you directly propose to Mr. Song and marry him!"
Shi Nuan was stunned for a moment.
He Meisui made a face at Ou Xiaoning: "Don’t talk nonsense, what proposal? How long has Nuannuan been with Mr. Song to talk about getting engaged? Besides, if there’s a proposal, it should be Mr. Song proposing to Nuannuan, not the other way around!"
Ou Xiaoning pouted and said, "Who says women can’t propose... there are plenty like that online!"
He Meisui couldn’t be bothered to argue with her and spoke to Shi Nuan, "Nuannuan, don’t mind Xiaoning about the proposal thing. Proposals should be made by men. Marriage is a big deal. I know Mr. Song treats you well, but you shouldn’t rush into deciding your future because of that, especially since you’re still so young..."
Shi Nuan didn’t know what to say as He Meisui and others were unaware that she and Song Yansheng were already married, making the proposal moot.
Ou Xiaoning said, "Meisui, you’re wrong. Even though Nuannuan’s only been with Mr. Song for a short time, they’ve known each other for a long while. Isn’t Mr. Song still Xiao Chuan’s..."
Before she could finish, He Meisui pinched her hard, making Ou Xiaoning yelp in pain.
"I told you not to say nonsense, but you still do!" She then turned to Shi Nuan, "Nuannuan, don’t mind her. You know Xiaoning often speaks without thinking..."
Shi Nuan pressed her lips together and said, "Meisui, I understand what you mean. Actually, it’s not Xiaoning’s fault. Being together with Song Yansheng is indeed... somewhat inappropriate. Song Yansheng is Xiao Chuan’s Second Uncle. Even though I didn’t interact much with him initially, whenever I saw him, I would have to call him Second Uncle. Getting to this point with him, I’ve gone through a lot of struggles..."
He Meisui quickly said, "Nuannuan, don’t think of it like that. Both Xiaoning and I wholeheartedly bless you and Song Yansheng. We’re happy you found the right person..."
Shi Nuan smiled, "I know. That’s why when Song Yansheng suggested inviting you over, I agreed. Even if we’ve only interacted for four years, you kind of know my personality and are aware that besides you guys actually...
I have very few friends. Many of Song Yansheng’s friends know about us, but on my side... very few people know. This makes me feel lonely...
Sitting here with you guys, discussing what to gift Song Yansheng, I feel very happy because at last, I’m not alone.
Of course, I understand if my relationship with him is made known, there will definitely be unfavorable opinions from outside. I also am aware of what I’ll face in the future... I’m prepared to face it, and I’m not afraid of what’s to come...
