Chapter 2068: Chapter 2069: Why Are You Dragging Me Into This

An Yilin glanced at Qi Linglong, who was outside eating and listening to Feng Feiyan and the others talking, before smiling and saying, ”Mom, why are you in a hurry? She won’t run away.”

An Jing said: ”I’m not in a hurry, just thinking that since you intend to marry her and she is willing to marry you, it would be good for you to get married earlier.”

An Yilin said: ”I do want to marry her, but I don’t want to get married now; maybe in a few years.”

An Jing didn’t say anything more to An Yilin.

Instead, An Yilin glanced at An Yiqi and laughed, ”Mom, rather than thinking about me and Linglong, why not think about Fifth brother and Linglong’s sister? Fifth brother is quite fiery with Linglong’s sister these days.”

”Really?!” An Jing looked at An Yiqi with surprise.

An Yiqi glared at An Yilin and said: ”Mom, I don’t want to get married either right now. Let me wait a few years too.”

An Jing immediately said: ”Waiting a few years is fine; I just want to know, are you really together with Jiaoqiao? How did you get together? I remember hearing you say before that Jiaoqiao couldn’t stand you at all.”

Faced with his mother’s gossipy inquiry, An Yiqi was amused and helpless, but still replied: ”We are together now. As for how we got together, it’s a long story.”

”Then make a long story short.”

An Yiqi paused and then tried to keep it short: ”Before, she indeed couldn’t stand me, thought I was too good-looking but not tall and strong, not like a man. She likes tall and strong people; whenever she sees someone tall and strong, she can’t help but look a few more times. She even told me her dream is to marry someone tall and strong like her dad or grandpa.”

”I didn’t mind who she wanted to marry or her saying I’m good-looking, but I couldn’t tolerate being told I’m not a man, so I challenged her to a contest. Her strength is great, like a big hammer, but with my wisdom, I defeated her.”

”She lost to me, and since I won openly, she naturally accepted it and stopped saying I’m not a man. Afterward, in battles between men and women, we often met and slowly developed feelings.”

”She’s straightforward and direct, says whatever she thinks. When she realized she liked me, she told me right away. Fortunately, I had some feelings for her too, and so we ended up together.”

After hearing An Yiqi’s words, An Jing joked: ”I said before that you had a crush on her and you said you didn’t.”

An Yiqi laughed: ”At first, I really didn’t, but after spending time together, I gradually started liking her.”

Not wanting his mother to ask more questions, An Yiqi quickly changed the subject: ”Mom, you don’t need to worry about Jiaoqiao and me. The day we want to get married, we’ll naturally tell you and Dad. But Seventh brother, you should be concerned about him. He has a crush on last year’s top female scholar, but she doesn’t pay him any mind, haha.”

An Yizhi immediately said with annoyance: ”Fifth brother, you’re too unkind. It’s Sixth brother who dragged you in, not me. Why are you dragging me into this?”

An Yiqi laughed: ”Brothers should share troubles together.”

An Yizhi glared hard at An Yiqi, then faced An Jing’s particularly curious gaze and sullenly said: ”Mo Ran is focused on revitalizing her family and has no time for romance with me. I shamelessly hang around her workplace every day, that’s it. Practically everyone in Imperial City who’s in office knows about this.”
