A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

got engaged.

As those two words fell.

The atmosphere at the dinner table exploded.

Li Xixue had just scooped a mouthful of porridge into her mouth, but before she could swallow it, it got stuck in her throat.

Then I choked a little.

Cough cough cough...

Lu Yang also choked a bit.

immediately.

The two said in unison.

"got engaged?"

Upon hearing this, Song Qiulan nodded with a smile: "That's right, your father and I have discussed it. Now that your relationship is stable, we should settle things as soon as possible so that your father and I can feel at ease. Besides, you and Xiaoyang are already living together, and your relationship is quite stable."

"Besides, Xiaoyang is a good and upright person. We don't object to you two being together."

Li Xixue's lips moved, as if she wanted to refute.

But when the words came out, he just couldn't find a suitable reason.

The point is, her opinion doesn't matter, because her own mother simply won't listen to her.

Li Xixue could only give Lu Yang a look, urging him to quickly find a way to refuse.

Receiving a glance, Lu Yang coughed lightly, "Auntie, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Although the two are married, it is done without anyone knowing.

Engagement is different.

It's like announcing to the world that they're getting married soon.

They are completely different things.

"Not suitable?"

Song Qiulan immediately frowned:

"Why is it unsuitable? Or are you saying you don't like our Xiaoxue?"

Upon hearing this...

Li Xixue was unhappy about it at the time.

What do you mean I'm being disliked?

Am I that cheap?

Lu Yang scratched his head, paused, and said, "Uh, not really..."

"That's right."

Song Qiulan spoke very quickly, as if afraid the other party would change their mind.

"Auntie, what I mean is..."

"Alright, alright."

Song Qiulan waved her hand, effectively shutting him down:

"As long as you don't mind Xiaoxue, your uncle and I will take care of the rest."

"Then you two can just focus on preparing for your engagement."

Li Xixue's forehead twitched.

"Mom, could you please ask for my opinion?"

Her tone was very humble.

To be honest, she has no standing in this family anymore.

The status of a biological daughter is even lower than that of a stranger who has just moved in.

What opinions do you have?

Song Qiulan turned her head away, not intending to pay any attention to her daughter's opinion.

After all, her position within the family is what it is.

Li Guoqing put down his bowl of porridge and slowly began to speak:

"Alright, this isn't urgent. We'll talk about it after we pick up Xiaochen."

After breakfast.

Song Qiulan and Li Guoqing began packing their luggage.

"Xiaoyang," Song Qiulan said, coming out with her suitcase in her hand, "your uncle and I have to leave for the airport this afternoon. Xiaoxue is busy with work, so you have to take good care of her."

Lu Yang helped her by saying, "Don't worry, Auntie."

"Oh, and there's more."

Song Qiulan approached and lowered her voice to say to him:

"You two need to speed things up; your auntie is waiting to hold her grandson."

"mom!"

Li Xixue stomped her foot.

She felt very embarrassed by the constant discussion of such awkward topics.

Children and such...

Ok.

tell you later.

Song Qiulan smiled even more happily:

"I'm just concerned about you. When I was your age, you were already old enough to run errands. Besides, your dad and I have discussed it, and we'll hold the engagement banquet within three months at the earliest."

Three months.

Li Xixue's eyes widened.

This is like forcing a duck onto a shelf.

Too fast, isn't it?

Li Guoqing dragged his suitcase out and interrupted the others: "Alright, let's go, or we'll be late."

Then, he glanced at his daughter, then at Lu Yang: "Xiao Yang, take good care of her."

Lu Yang nodded solemnly.

Compared to the mother-in-law's approval, the father-in-law's approval is much more valuable.

After seeing the couple off.

The living room suddenly fell silent.

Li Xixue collapsed onto the sofa, her body going limp.

To be honest, taking care of your parents is more tiring than doing anything else.

"Your parents... really know how to create drama."

Lu Yang broke the silence.

Li Xixue turned to look at him, rolling her eyes: "Did you already know she would say that?"

"How would I know?"

Lu Yang walked over and sat down on the sofa next to her. "Who can fathom your mother's thought process?"

"So you agree?"

"When did I agree?"

Lu Yang shrugged and retorted, "Besides, given your mother's personality, what good would my objections do?"

Li Xixue thought about it carefully.

That's definitely true.

Her mother has a temper; once she's made up her mind, nothing can change it.

……

It was exactly 10:00 AM.

The pink Panamera was parked in a designated parking space.

Lu Yang and Li Xixue walked into the company side by side.

The sound of her high heels clicking echoed.

The black suit fits very well, and the shirt collar is unbuttoned, revealing a small section of skin below the collarbone. It's not much, but it's enough. The skirt sways slightly with the movement of the legs when walking.

But what's even more surprising is the boy who's with her.

A man in his early twenties...

College Students.

The elevator doors opened, and the two stepped inside.

Li Xixue pressed the floor button, turned around and leaned against the elevator wall. Her gaze lingered on Lu Yang's face for a moment before she said, "Today's meeting is very important. There are some details about Wang Jianyuan's project that need to be adjusted."

"What details?"

You'll know when you get there.

Soon, the elevator doors opened, and the two stepped out.

As they walked down the corridor, the employees' eyes swept over the two men. Some stood there with documents in their hands, their eyes glazed over, while others lowered their heads as soon as they saw them approaching.

"Hello, Mr. Li!"

Li Xixue simply nodded slightly in response.

At that moment, the CEO's aura instantly shone through.

Chen Yan stood at the office door and was slightly surprised to see the two of them coming over, but with her professionalism, she quickly composed herself.

You should know that she has been Mr. Li's secretary for at least five or six years.

How could anyone not see that?

The relationship between the two is definitely not simple!

"President Li, the conference room is ready, and everyone has arrived."

Chen Yan's gaze lingered on Lu Yang for a moment, "Mr. Lu..."

He came with me.

Li Xixue said coldly.

Chen Yan quickly realized what was going on, "Okay, I'll go tell the meeting room that the meeting will start in ten minutes."

"Um."

She handed the meeting documents to Li Xixue, then turned and left.

Li Xixue led Lu Yang into the office and closed the door behind her.

Li Xixue sat in her office chair, opened the meeting documents, and did a quick tidying up.

She only glanced at the ten pages of meeting minutes before finishing them.

Although Lu Yang couldn't see what she was looking at, he could tell that her brows were slightly furrowed.

"Is there a problem with Wang Jianyuan's project?" Lu Yang asked.

Li Xixue did not answer immediately.

She turned another page and then closed the file.

"It's not a problem, it's an opportunity."

She turned to look at Lu Yang, her red lips slightly parted: "Wang Jianyuan wants to expand the investment scale from 30 million to 100 million."
