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

"Auntie, I will definitely keep this ring safe for you!"

Li Xixue's expression was very serious.

To be honest, she had never been this serious in her life.

Seeing the other person's serious expression, Zhou Huifang felt a warmth in her heart, and then smiled and patted Li Xixue's hand: "Silly child, what do you mean by 'keeping it safe'? Auntie was just joking with you. Once this is given to you, it's yours. You can wear it whenever you want, and if you don't want to wear it, you can take it off and put it anywhere."

Li Xixue shook her head and didn't take it off.

She wore it like that, with an extra ring on the ring finger of her left hand.

Lu Yang watched from the side.

To be honest, the scene was a bit beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that he would have completed his mission if he could clarify the relationship today.

Unexpectedly, his mother upgraded him directly.

They even brought out family heirlooms.

"Mom, aren't you in a bit too much of a hurry...?"

Lu Yang whispered.

"What do you mean by being in a hurry?"

Zhou Huifang rolled her eyes at him:

"At your age, your grandmother would have already given birth to your father."

Lu Yang shut up.

Li Xixue kept her head down, her fingers unconsciously twirling the ring.

She received two things today.

A cookbook, a ring.

The recipes were meant to be used to take care of Lu Yang.

The ring was a sign that she was accepted into the family.

The combined weight of these two items is heavier than all the contracts she has signed over the years.

"Alright, it's getting late."

Lu Jianguo finally spoke: "You two should go back early too, and remember to be careful on the road."

Zhou Huifang gave a series of instructions.

They told me to drive slowly on the road, to remember to eat dinner, and to come again next time.

Li Xixue agreed to all of them.

As I walked out the door.

Zhou Huifang suddenly called out from behind, "Xiaoxue!"

Li Xixue turned around.

Zhou Huifang stood at the door, smiling happily.

"Next time you come, don't bring anything, just come in person, and Auntie will continue to cook delicious food for you!"

Li Xixue nodded and gently hummed in agreement, "Okay, I'll definitely come again!"

Then the two went downstairs.

Silent all the way.

Until we were about to go down to the residential building.

Li Xixue slowly spoke, "Your mother... is such a kind person."

Lu Yang chuckled: "You're my mother's daughter-in-law, how could you not be good?"

On the contrary, his own son seemed somewhat superfluous.

Li Xixue lowered her head, unconsciously touching the ring on her ring finger. Her expression was not clear, but her whole demeanor was completely different from when she arrived.

I was tense when I arrived.

It's relaxed now.

Lu Yang suddenly spoke up: "The ring... if you don't want to wear it, then you can keep it."

He said it casually.

Upon hearing this, Li Xixue hid the hand with the ring behind her back and took a half step back, as if afraid he would snatch it.

"Who said I don't want to wear it anymore?"

Lu Yang was taken aback: "No, you really want to wear it?"

"Otherwise what?"

"I thought you were just going through the motions."

"I told you! I'll keep it safe!"

Li Xixue stared at him, her tone full of vigilance: "Besides, your mother gave it to me just now, and I agreed to it."

Lu Yang smiled wryly: "Okay, I was just afraid you'd think this thing is old-fashioned..."

"I don't mind."

Li Xixue answered quickly.

And this was also her favorite gift ever received in her life.

Lu Yang looked at her and his lips twitched slightly.

To be honest, this woman usually doesn't flinch no matter what she faces, but now she's protecting a mere old ring like it's nothing.

"But any piece of jewelry you usually wear is more expensive than that."

Li Xixue thought for a moment and said, "I don't like any of those."

"All right……"

Lu Yang didn't ask any further questions.

When we got downstairs...

Li Xixue suddenly spoke again.

"The cookbook your mom gave me..."

"Um?"

"I will study hard when I get back."

Lu Yang turned his head.

Li Xixue didn't look at him when she said this; her gaze was fixed on the steps of the stairs, and her tone was very flat.

But Lu Yang knew that the fact that she could say those words meant that she had taken the matter to heart.

"OK."

Lu Yang responded, then added, "Although I'd love to eat my wife's cooking soon, there's no rush to learn to cook. I can take my time, and I'm not picky."

"Who, who said it was made for you?"

Li Xixue snorted and retorted defiantly.

Lu Yang chuckled but didn't reply.

The two walked to the entrance of the building.

As soon as I pushed open the unit door, an elderly woman with white hair carrying a vegetable basket walked towards me.

When she saw Lu Yang, the old woman was stunned for a moment, and then she showed a kind smile.

"Hey, Xiao Yang!"

"Grandma Wang."

Lu Yang greeted him with a smile.

The old lady was my old neighbor next door.

And she is Wang Hao's grandmother.

I remember when Lu Yang was a child, he and Wang Hao used to run and jump around in this building.

And whenever he was hungry, the old lady would take out a few White Rabbit milk candies from the cupboard and give them to him to eat.

Grandma Wang's hair was gray, and she was carrying bags in her hands.

Upon seeing this, Lu Yang walked over and took everything from her hands.

"Grandma Wang, why did you buy so much? Why didn't you just let Haozi buy it?"

"Haozi? It seems he's been going to work lately!"

Grandma Wang smiled and waved her hand: "He's very busy now, and I rarely see him come back anymore."

"And I heard he went to work for a big company!"

"He also said that you introduced him to someone."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang touched his nose: "No... he got in on his own merit."

Grandma Wang saw it at a glance and laughed:

"Don't you know what kind of person Haozi is? You always helped him when he was a kid. The reason he got a job at such a big company this time is probably because of you."

Lu Yang picked up the two bags from Grandma Wang's hands; they were quite heavy. He quickly changed the subject.

"Are you carrying all this upstairs by yourself?"

"It's alright, it's alright, I can still walk."

have to.

The old lady's temper is still as stubborn as ever.

Lu Yang didn't say anything more and simply picked up the bag to see her upstairs.

Just then.

Grandma Wang's gaze fell on Li Xixue.

The old lady squinted her eyes, then turned to look at Lu Yang, and then at Li Xixue.

"Xiao Yang, who is this girl...?"

Lu Yang said directly, "This is my girlfriend."

Grandma Wang's eyes lit up immediately.

"Yo!"

The old lady looked Li Xixue up and down, then her face broke into a wide smile.

"That girl is really pretty!"

Li Xixue was flattered by such a straightforward compliment, and her lips twitched slightly. She politely replied, "Hello, Grandma."

"good!"

Grandma Wang was beaming from ear to ear, and she took Li Xixue's hand: "Girl, what's your name?"

"Li Xixue," Li Xixue said.

"Okay, okay."

Grandma Wang smiled and patted the back of her hand:

"Little girl, Grandma doesn't have much to say, I just hope that you and Xiaoyang can live a good life together in the future."
