Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!
Chapter 209: Secretly Laughing at Me?
Liu Meilan had been in love once, and that was with Yang Jianan.
But the time was too long, I just remember that I wanted to see Yang Jianan every day.
It was just that love affair that pushed her into the abyss.
She was abused again afterwards and became very wary of men.
Even if Fu Chen confessed to Liu Meilan now, she could not accept it without reservation.
"If I feel we are not suitable after we are together, please don't hate me after we break up."
Fu Chen was startled, and nodded solemnly, "Comrade Liu Meilan, I want to reiterate to you. If I pursue you, you have the right to accept, and of course you also have the right to refuse."
"From the beginning to the end, what I want is mutual affection, not one-sided wishful thinking. If we are together, it can make us both feel happy and feel that we can support each other for the rest of our lives, then this is a good love. If not, it is a cage, and I will not entangle you."
Fu Chen's words came out of his mouth. He had confidence in himself and in Liu Meilan.
Liu Meilan was stunned by what she said. Wasn't Fu Chen a taciturn person?
Who did you learn all these things from?
Just at this moment, muffled laughter was heard from not far away.
Tang Xiaoyu hid at the entrance of the alley. Actually, she didn't want to eavesdrop, but when Fu Chen confessed his love, she was nearby.
I just can’t bear it anymore!
Liu Meilan and Fu Chen turned their eyes and walked to the entrance of the alley, then saw Tang Xiaoyu.
"Xiao Yu, why...why are you here?" Liu Meilan's face turned red instantly.
Fu Chen was also a little embarrassed, but still remained calm.
Tang Xiaoyu blinked, "Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it's my birthday too. When my mother gave birth to me, she was an advanced-age mother and almost died. Ever since I was old enough to understand, I would give my mother a gift on my birthday to thank her for bringing me into this beautiful world."
Liu Meilan was stunned. Xiaoyu was so warm.
"Then why were you hiding there and eavesdropping on our conversation? Eavesdropping is fine, but why are you laughing?"
Fu Chen's eyes were also quite unfriendly.
Is his confession so ridiculous?
Tang Xiaoyu tried to hold back her laughter, but she couldn't help it no matter how hard she tried. "Hahaha, Meilan, Fu Chen, I didn't mean to laugh at you. It's really... really your confession is too... too official. I feel like I'm joining the party, so solemn and serious."
"Ah?" Liu Meilan and Fu Chen were both stunned and looked at each other, confused.
How do others express their feelings?
Liu Meilan walked up to Tang Xiaoyu and pinched her face. "Stop laughing, okay? We are serious."
"I know you are serious, but...but don't you think your love has too many rules and regulations? Don't you feel constrained?" Tang Xiaoyu asked back.
Liu Meilan blinked her eyes, "What does it feel like to be in a relationship without any constraints?"
Tang Xiaoyu pointed to his chest and said, "Of course, after you like someone in your heart and make sure that the other person is kind and touching, then you start to follow your feelings. This is love!"
"If you follow the rules of the circle and suppress and endure like that, don't you feel embarrassed? In that case, where will the sweet feeling come from?"
When Liu Meilan heard this, she suddenly realized that Tang Xiaoyu was right.
Tang Xiaoyu did the same thing. She once liked Yun Hong because she was attracted to him. After knowing Yun Hong's purpose, she was sure that he had bad intentions, so she gave up decisively.
Since Fu Chen had no ill will towards her and liked her, and she also had a good impression of Fu Chen, having so many concerns was indeed a constraint.
Fu Chen also understood and smiled, "Tang Xiaoyu, you are right. But now I have to date Meilan, you light bulb, please leave quickly."
Liu Meilan also smiled, and the reserved atmosphere just now disappeared instantly, "Yes, we are going on a date now."
Tang Xiaoyu was stunned, "Meilan, I am your good friend!"
"Well, yes, you are my good friend, but you make fun of me." Liu Meilan pouted and looked a little angry, but it was fake.
Tang Xiaoyu wrinkled his nose, "Okay, I won't bother you. Anyway, I'm done with my work. By the way, don't forget the exam tonight. If you don't take it, you will fail even if your grades are good."
Liu Meilan nodded, "Yeah, I got it. See you tonight."
Tang Xiaoyu also reached out and pinched Liu Meilan's face, "Okay, I won't be a light bulb anymore! I wish you a smooth and happy date."
"I will." Fu Chen chuckled, and he took the opportunity to hold Liu Meilan's hand, "Let's go to the jewelry store."
Liu Meilan was startled, then smiled, "Okay!"
Tang Xiaoyu is right. Since you have a good impression of the other person and he is a good person, why not relax and follow your feeling?
Tang Xiaoyu watched Liu Meilan and Fu Chen leave and smiled.
I wish my good friends happiness and joy!
But she was also feeling emotional in her heart that Fu Chen finally confessed his feelings, otherwise she would have been anxious too!
As for Liu Meilan, she is a tortoise.
Having been hurt in love before, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.
If there is any disturbance outside, it will retract its head into its turtle shell.
This kind of mentality is not good for Liu Meilan.
But now Liu Meilan is different from before. There are so many people around her who care and love her. Love is not a life-saving straw, nor is it the only one, so she has the confidence to follow her own feelings instead of standing back.
If Liu Meilan married into the Fu family, she could become a sister-in-law!
We are family and can help each other.
When they arrived at the jewelry store, Liu Meilan took out a few very large pearls, which were beige in color and had a warm glow.
"Master Huo, can I design a brooch using such large pearls?" Liu Meilan asked.
Seeing this, Fu Chen felt embarrassed, "Meilan..."
"Master Huo, how much is a pearl like this?" Liu Meilan pointed at the pearls she brought.
Master Huo replied: "This one is worth fifty dollars. Of course, if it's sold in one of those big jewelry stores, it might be double that, or even more expensive."
Hearing this, Liu Meilan said to Fu Chen: "I heard it. Pearls themselves are not that expensive. It's just that the outside world has given them too much added value. If you feel bad, please treat me to lunch at noon."
Fu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I was going to treat you to lunch at noon."
Liu Meilan smiled slyly, "Then you can treat me to two meals and reserve a meal for next time."
Fu Chen also felt that Liu Meilan would not accept the money if he gave her money now, "Okay!"
He decided to buy a gift for Liu Meilan later.
Leave one pearl, and Master Huo has the other materials, and finally make it into a gold pearl brooch.
Fu Chen paid the money and came to pick it up three days later.
After coming out of the jewelry workshop, they went for a walk in the small park.
There are many camellias in full bloom, which is very beautiful.
Liu Meilan smiled and asked, "Where did the camellia come from?"
Fu Chen replied: "Chen An picked these flowers for me. I thought they looked pretty, so I brought them here."
"I knew you wouldn't just pick flowers randomly." Liu Meilan smiled, "But they look nice, I like them very much."
Fu Chen quickly said: "Then I will pick them myself in the future."
Liu Meilan stopped him, "No, the flowers are beautiful on the tree, don't pick them for me. They won't last for a few days if you pick them, but they can still remain beautiful for a long time on the tree."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Fu Chen chuckled.
The two talked about work and study, and time passed quickly.
Before I knew it, it was already 12:30 in the afternoon. I was hungry, so I went to eat.
Fu Chen took Liu Meilan to Xingwang Restaurant for dinner, chatting and laughing.
Chief of Staff Liu had something to do today, so after Professor Xie visited Liu Fumin, he invited some good friends to dinner.
Coincidentally, it was also at Xingwang Restaurant.
Professor Xie did not see it, but Qian Cuicui, a doctor at the hospital, said, "Qingya, take a look, is that your daughter?"
Professor Xie was startled and turned to look over. "That girl is having dinner with her friends!"
From the expressions and actions of Liu Meilan and Fu Chen, it can be seen that the sense of distance has been reduced and they seem very close.
Qian Cuicui smiled and said, "That young man is so handsome. From the way he walks, you can tell he is a soldier. Is he one of your Lao Liu's men?"
Professor Xie nodded and said without hiding anything, "Yes, I work on our island."
"Qingya, don't you want to go and take a look? Aren't you worried?" Others were also curious.
Professor Xie smiled and said, "The child is an adult now, and the other boy is not bad either. As an elder, we should not interfere too much."
After hearing this, everyone understood.
It seems that Professor Xie has no objection to his daughter's relationship with this gay man.
The gay man who can catch the eye of Professor Xie must be no ordinary person.
At this time, Yuan Wenfang, who worked in the art troupe, blinked and said, "I recognized him. Isn't this Captain Fu Chen, who is under our Lao Zhao?"
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Yuan Wenfang, "Who is this young man?"
Yuan Wenfang smiled and said, "Of course he is a young talent with a bright future. Otherwise, our Professor Xie, who always has high standards, would not be so calm and confident to continue chatting with us!"
Professor Xie smiled and said, "It was thanks to Fu Chen that we were able to find Meilan. I had a good impression of this young man and met him several times later. He is very steady."
"Come on, stop talking about kids. Let's talk about something we're interested in. Last time you said you wanted to buy a house, so I've picked one for you. It's a holiday, so if you're free, I'll take you there tomorrow."
Once you hear something that concerns your own personal interests, gossip is no longer interesting.
Qian Cuicui complimented, "When I was able to buy a house, it was less than 1000 yuan per square meter. Qingya even told me that I had money at that time, but I always felt that I already had a house to live in, so why should I spend money to buy a house?"
"But now I think I was really stupid! The child was small at that time, but he will grow up! Will he have to squeeze into the same room with us?"
"Besides, the house I bought for less than 1000 yuan per square meter has risen to more than 6000 yuan per square meter this year! It has increased several times, which is equivalent to 10 yuan at that time, and now it has become 60!"
Yuan Wenfang also nodded repeatedly in agreement, "Yes, our commodity prices have also risen, but not as fast as the housing prices!"
"Besides, how much money can you spend on vegetables and meat? But the house is so big, the total price is so high, and it has increased so many times. Qingya, you really made a fortune when you bought the house!"
Another chubby woman, Liang Hongyu, who worked in logistics, looked at Xie Qingya with envy.
"At the beginning, we all knew that Qingya bought a house, and we said that Qingya had so much money that she had no place to spend it! Now it seems that we were short-sighted."
"Now some of my children are studying outside, and some are working in Shenzhen. They all need houses. I will go to the city tomorrow, and I will go with you. If we find a good one, we will buy it."
Everyone agreed, "Many units have laid off workers now, not to mention housing allocation, which is even more far-reaching!"
Professor Xie smiled and said, "After chatting with some people, I think housing prices will continue to rise, but I don't know how much they will rise! If they don't rise too much, don't blame me!"
Yuan Wenfang said quickly: "It's good that the house price has increased. Even if the price didn't increase, wouldn't people still live in it? My son is in a relationship, and the girl asked for a house."
So they agreed to buy a house together.
After dinner, Fu Chen had to return to the army in the afternoon. After sending Liu Meilan home, he returned in a happy mood.
Liu Meilan couldn't describe how she felt, she just felt very happy.
However, she still has a lot of homework, some of which must be turned in and is considered part of her regular grade.
Professor Xie went home, and Aunt Yang and Uncle Yang from next door came over together.
"Is Brother Liu here?" asked Uncle Yang.
"He's not here. He went out to play chess with someone. You can tell me if you have anything to say." Professor Xie smiled and said, "Come, it's windy outside, sit inside."
"Thank you!" Uncle Yang said with a smile, taking the tea poured by Professor Xie, "Professor Xie, I heard Brother Liu said he wanted to buy a house, and I want to sell my yard."
Hearing this, Professor Xie smiled and said, "I heard from my father-in-law that he does want to buy a house. This yard looks a bit big now, but if we grow some flowers and plants, it won't be enough. In addition, we have a large family, so it's a bit crowded here and there is not enough space. But you live well here, why do you want to sell the house?"
Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang looked at each other with bitterness on their faces. "We are too old to fish anymore. Our son is working in another place and he probably won't come back in this lifetime."
"My daughter-in-law is pregnant and needs someone to take care of her, so we had to sell our house and reunite with my son. I came here and never thought that after living here for so many years, I would have to leave."
Professor Xie was surprised, "Aren't Uncle Yang and Aunt Yang locals?"
"Half of it," Grandpa Yang replied. "I fled here to settle down. Although the environment is bad, it's still peaceful. As long as I work hard, I can eat fish and shrimp, so I won't starve to death."
Professor Xie thought for a moment, then said, "Since you are determined to sell it, how much do you want to offer?"
Uncle Yang thought for a moment, then said, "Our yard is a little smaller than this one. We'll offer 30,000 yuan. Do you think it's okay?"
Professor Xie smiled, "Thirty thousand yuan isn't expensive, but it's not a small amount. You guys go back first and discuss it with my father-in-law and my wife in the evening. We can hand over the money and the house when we have time. What do you think?"
Uncle Yang nodded when he heard this. "Okay, the house is indeed not a trivial matter, you do need to discuss it. However, my daughter-in-law is pregnant and is about to give birth, so we can't wait too long."
"Okay, I understand. I will give you an answer tomorrow." Professor Xie agreed. In fact, she could have agreed to it on the spot, but the human heart is unpredictable.
If you agree too easily, the other party may even think the offer is too low!
