Lin Sheng was a little overwhelmed when he thought about what he was going to say to Liu Shaopu next.
I don’t know what he would think of me? Will...
Just when Lin Sheng was struggling and uneasy, someone suddenly patted her from behind. She was startled, and before she could react, she heard the familiar laughter.
"When did you become so timid?"
This Liu Shaopu is always short-tempered, but today she can't lose her temper.
Liu Shaopu noticed something was wrong with Lin Sheng, and he immediately asked: "Why are you acting weird today?"
"No way, I'm the same as before!" Lin Sheng defended hurriedly, trying hard to make himself look less nervous.
"It's obvious! Quack doctor, why did you ask me to come out?"
"I..." Lin Sheng had rehearsed it many times in his mind, but when the critical moment came, he stuttered.
"Is someone bullying you?" Liu Shaopu asked suddenly.
"No."
"What's the matter? What happened at home?"
When Lin Sheng mentioned home, she thought of her mother's body. The reason why she became like this was all because of herself. How could Lin Sheng not feel distressed.
"Lin Sheng? What happened?" Liu Shaopu was also a little anxious.
Lin Sheng calmed down, and for the sake of her mother, she finally plucked up the courage: "My mother's health is much worse than before. She has been hoping that I can find a good family, and I also know that my mother always thinks you are good, and she hopes that we can We can be together, so Liu Shaopu, can you marry me?"
After saying these words, Lin Sheng immediately lowered her head. She was very nervous now and did not dare to look at Liu Shaopu's reaction.
Liu Shaopu was also stunned. He never expected that Lin Sheng would say these words, and he was excited and funny at the same time.
However, he was in no hurry to answer.
Lin Sheng kept his head down and didn't dare to look at him, so he deliberately kept silent to see how long this girl could hold on.
Seeing that the other party still refused to answer, Lin Sheng felt even more embarrassed. What should she do? Could she be too direct?
In fact, Lin Sheng could never fully believe Liu Shaopu's feelings for her. Although her sister had said those words, and although Liu Shaopu did care about her, she was not confident in her heart and did not dare to be 100% sure.
But now seeing that he had no reaction, Lin Sheng felt even more regretful. If he had known better, he would not have spoken so straightforwardly.
But this Liu Shaopu was really too much. What did he think? It was just a matter of words whether he agreed or disagreed. Why did he have to make the atmosphere like this and let her do what she should do next.
Lin Sheng finally couldn't help it anymore. She looked up at Liu Shaopu and saw him looking at her with a smirk on his face.
"Are you finally willing to look at me?"
Lin Sheng's face suddenly turned red.
"Quack doctor, quack doctor, I didn't expect to see you twitching in my lifetime."
Liu Shaopu started to tease her again, but Lin Sheng was embarrassed to refute because she didn't expect that she would be so coy.
"Hey, why don't you speak? Speaking of quacks, you want me to marry you. Shouldn't you say more sincere words? Otherwise, how can you impress me? After all, there are so many girls in this Western City who dream of You want to marry me! So, quack doctor, just keep saying nice things."
"What do you want me to say?" Lin Sheng gritted his teeth.
"I want you to say something more beautiful so that you can impress me!"
"Liu Shaopu, I really can't figure out how good you are. Why do my mother and uncle like you so much?"
"Lin Sheng, have you ever thought about something?" Liu Shaopu asked in a serious tone.
"What?"
"If everyone thinks I'm good and only you think I'm bad, then there must be something wrong with you!"
"You!" Lin Sheng rolled her eyes at Liu Shaopu, "You are always like this. You never say a nice word to me. How can I feel good about you? I really don't understand. You are so polite to others, why do you always have to do it? Are you making me angry?"
Liu Shaopu laughed, his smile was bright and bright, "That's because you treat me differently, so of course I can't treat you the same as I treat others."
Lin Sheng was shocked on the spot after hearing this answer. Was this an indirect admission of his feelings for him?
"Hey, quack doctor, don't try to change the subject. You still want to continue to persuade me so that I agree to marry you!"
As expected, Liu Shaopu could not be serious for a few seconds, but for the sake of his mother, Lin Sheng had no choice but to swallow his anger.
"I am a doctor after all. It would be great to marry a doctor. You won't have to worry about your health in the future."
Liu Shaopu curled his lips and said, "Stop trying to flatter yourself. With your little medical skills, how dare you say this? I'm worried that one day you'll poison me to death! Go ahead and speak truthfully."
"Then we have shared life and death together, and I think..."
"What do you think?"
"I think you also like me, so marrying me will fulfill your wish and you won't suffer at all!" Lin Sheng took a lot of effort to say this.
Alas, I will probably be laughed at by Liu Shaopu again.
Sure enough, his guess was correct. Liu Shaopu looked at him with a look of shame on his face, "Do you think I like you?"
"Well, isn't it?" Lin Sheng asked uncertainly.
In fact, she didn't have much confidence, after all, Liu Shaopu never said anything to herself.
Just when Lin Sheng was uneasy, Liu Shaopu knocked her on the head again, "Why did you hit me again!" Lin Sheng shouted.
"It doesn't hurt at all. Stop pretending to be weak, okay?"
"Isn't that right? You can just answer me directly. Why do you have to do it?"
"That's because I was wondering why your brain suddenly opened up!"
"What do you mean?" Lin Sheng asked confused.
"You're stupid, you're really not smart at all! I mean why did you suddenly become smart and find out that I like you? I thought you would never notice it for the rest of your life!"
"My sister told me!" Lin Sheng whispered.
It turns out that everything is true!
"It seems that I have to find a chance to thank Miss Lin. If it weren't for her, I probably would never hear you say these words in my life!"
"Then what's your answer?" Lin Sheng summoned up the courage to ask again.
Liu Shaopu stared at Lin Sheng, "Are you thinking of marrying me just to make your aunt happy?"
Lin Sheng nodded.
"If it weren't for this reason you wouldn't have married me at all, right?"
Lin Sheng still nodded.
"You are very honest, aren't you afraid that I will reject you for this?" Liu Shaopu said helplessly.
"But I don't want to lie to you!"
"Forget it, forget it, who gave me something wrong with my brain? I don't like so many gentle and lovely girls, but I insist on falling in love with you who is fierce and unlovable. Okay, okay, I promise you that's it!"
"um. Thank you!"
Lin Sheng couldn't be said to be happy or unhappy, but he just felt that he could finally let go of the big stone in his heart.
"Quack doctor, don't go back on your word, otherwise I will lose face!"
"Don't worry, I will never regret it!"
"Well, although I know you don't like me now, it doesn't matter. I will take good care of you and your aunt, and we will always live happily! I say this very, very seriously, you Don’t say I’m not serious anymore!”
"Okay, okay, I get it!"
Lin Sheng looked at Liu Shaopu and thought he was very ridiculous, but he was more moved.
At this time, Liu Shaopu suddenly held Lin Sheng's hand, and Lin Sheng asked doubtfully: "Where are you taking me?"
"Don't worry, I won't sell you. Since it's not worth much, it's better to let you stay with me to avoid harming others."
Lin Sheng was angry, so she kicked Liu Shaopu, "You have to make me angry, right?"
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore! I'm afraid you'll regret it later, so I have to propose marriage to my aunt as soon as possible. If you dare to go back on your word then, my aunt won't let you go!"
"What a fool!" Lin Sheng laughed.

Xie Guang, his wife and Xie Yunyi were all at home. They were very surprised when they saw Liu Shaopu coming and holding Sheng'er's hand.
But when they heard Liu Shaopu say that he wanted to marry Sheng'er, their surprise turned into excitement. Of course, the happiest person here was Mrs. Xie, who almost burst out laughing.
"Uncle, aunt, please believe me, I will be very, very good to Sheng'er."
"Well, we believe in you. It's our Sheng'er's blessing to marry you!" Mrs. Xie was the first to say with a smile.
"I am lucky to marry Sheng'er. She is the simplest and most innocent girl I have ever seen!" Liu Shaopu said sincerely.
"It's great that you can be together. By the way, Mr. Liu, do you have any plans for the wedding day?" Mrs. Xie asked again.
"Not yet. I will go home soon to discuss the wedding date and gift money with my father. I think it is better to get married as soon as possible! Also, uncle and aunt, we will be a family from now on. Don't call me Mr. Liu anymore. It seems so unfamiliar. Yeah, just call me Shaopu."
"OK!"
"Then I'll go home and discuss it with my father now!"
"Okay, okay, Sheng'er, you go and see Mr. Liu off, oh, no, you go and see off Shaopu!"
"Um!"
My aunt is always talking, which shows that she has the final say on most things in this family.
Although my aunt always complained, my mother and I had been bothering her for so many years, and she never chased them away.
Seeing her so happy now is a kind of repayment.
"What are you thinking about?" Liu Shaopu asked suddenly.
Lin Sheng came to her senses. She did not tell Liu Shaopu about her little thoughts. Instead, she joked: "My family has no money and can't afford any dowry. Do you think it's a loss?"
"It's true what you said. It seems that I did suffer a loss!" Liu Shaopu also joked.
"Are you starting to regret it?"
"That's not true, but you can't be so fierce in the future. You have to be considerate to me and make it up to me. After all, I am the only one in the world who is willing to suffer!" Liu Shaopu put his arm around Lin Sheng's shoulders and saw her glaring. He smiled again and said: "I'm kidding you, quack doctor, you are a priceless treasure in my eyes. Don't worry, I will take good care of you and your aunt in the future!"
"Well, I believe you, but can you please stop making me angry in the future?"
"I'm not angry with you, I just want to make you happy and get your attention! Tell the truth, don't you think it's easy to get along with me?"
"I suspect you are praising yourself in a roundabout way!"
"Sure enough, he has become smarter, and you can see it."
Although Lin Sheng didn't say it, she did feel very relaxed getting along with Liu Shaopu.
"By the way, can you please stop calling me a quack doctor?"
"That's not possible. This is a nickname that belongs exclusively to you. It's so vivid!"
Lin Sheng couldn't help but hit Liu Shaopu again, "Okay, you are not a child. You don't need anyone to send you away. I'm going back first!"
"OK!"
Lin Sheng was walking when he suddenly heard Liu Shaopu shouting from behind: "Quack, I'm really happy today!"
She didn't stop, but she laughed unconsciously.
The days ahead should not be boring!
She should also try to welcome a new life.

My uncle, aunt, and mother were still sitting in the hall. When my aunt saw me, she hurried over to greet me, "Sheng'er, you said you had to be so stubborn in the past. It would be better if you promised me earlier! But it's not too late now. Anyway, in the future You should let Mr. Liu take care of our family more often!"
"Madam, don't say this!" Xie Guang interrupted her. He looked at Sheng'er and said emotionally: "Uncle is really happy for you. Sheng'er, this will always be your natal family. You have to remember that we will always be family."
"Thank you uncle!"
Lin Sheng noticed that his uncle seemed to have something on his mind, so he quickly asked: "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Xie Guang hesitated for a long time before saying: "We are a small family, and we have limited resources. But I am the prefect, so I am worried that the wedding gift I have prepared is not enough, I am afraid that others will laugh at you, and I am even more afraid that you will be wronged because of it. "
Lin Sheng was very moved. She knew that her uncle was sincerely thinking about her.
Since marrying Liu Shaopu can make everyone happy, why did she have to be so stubborn in the first place?
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about this. Liu Shaopu said that the dowry is not important. He also said that he will be good to me and will honor you."
"Well, that's good, that's good!" Xie Guang sighed. He glanced at Sister Yunyi and hurriedly ordered: "Sheng'er, your mother is tired, take her back to rest first."
"good."
After Lin Sheng helped her mother back to the room, she asked, "Mom, why were you silent just now?"
"Sheng'er, tell me the truth. Did you agree to marry Mr. Liu for my sake?"
"No, don't think so."
Xie Yunyi held her daughter's hand tightly, "I know you still can't forget the past. Although mother likes Mr. Liu very much, you can't delay your life because of me! Now mother has figured it out, you don't have to worry about me, be happy What you like is the most important!”
Lin Sheng's eyes were a little moist, and she hugged her mother tightly, "It's time for me to move on. Liu Shaopu is really good to me. He stayed with me during the plague. Mom, I was really moved by him. Not just for you, really, I believe he will be very, very good to us."
"Is it true?" Xie Yunyi was still a little skeptical.
"of course it's true!"
"If that's the case, I'm really happy for you!"
"Well, mother, the days to come will be long and we will always be happy. Liu Shaopu and I will take good care of you!"
"good!"
