“Is that so?” Xu Ling was embarrassed, but he couldn’t help but feel a little sweet.
Leng Xu looked at the flowers in full bloom in the garden and sighed in his heart.”As for me, I’m really old now.”
“You don’t look old at all,” Xu Ling said with a smile as he walked.
“You don’t think I’m old?” Leng Xu smiled mischievously.
Xu Ling nodded, his heart filled with emotions. compared to your peers, you’re not old at all. Besides, you’ve always paid attention to exercising. You don’t even have a beer belly. Look at old han, old Wang, and the others. They all have beer bellies. The older they get, the more unkempt they become. They’re not as particular about their appearance as you are when you’re single.
“What are you looking at? why are you standing here and smiling like an idiot?”
Tong Lu hid in a dark corner and peeked at him. She did not know when, but a voice suddenly rang in her ears, and she shuddered in fear. She turned her head and saw that the tall, mighty-looking man beside her was her husband. She heaved a sigh of relief and held Leng Yejin’s arm. She was so happy that she could not stop grinning. I’m looking at dusk of love. Look over there. Your mom and your uncle are talking about love.
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Who’s talking nonsense? I’m really the matchmaker.”
Leng Yejin did not believe him at all. He pricked up his ears and listened quietly. He wanted to hear what fourth uncle and his mother were talking about.
After listening to a few words, his expression changed. He seemed to be shocked and in disbelief. He was thinking more about whether his fourth uncle would sacrifice himself for the Leng family’s face. He could also think of it!
Leng Yejin strode toward them with his long legs. He was a little furious.
Leng Yejin! Tong Lu called out to him, but he did not stop her. She quickly followed him and tried to hold him back.
In the distance, Xu Ling was equally shocked. He could not believe what his ears had just heard.
“Leng Xu, we’re already so old. Don’t make fun of me with this kind of thing.”
Leng Xu was a little embarrassed. It was indeed a bit of a hassle to suddenly say that he wanted to get engaged to her today. However, he said seriously, ” “I’m already at this age, would I still joke about this kind of thing with you? I’m saving the day, and I really want to find an old partner. If you think it’s abrupt, just pretend I never said what I said today. I know it’s a little hard on you.”
Xu Ling was in a daze for a moment. She was obviously overwhelmed by the unexpected favor. How was this a grievance? in this life, the thing she wanted the most was to marry him. Unfortunately, they were never meant to be together. Now that she heard that Long Yan’s engagement party couldn’t be held and that he wanted to change it to his and her engagement party, she really couldn’t react in time.
Xu Ling looked up. His eyes were slightly wet. He exchanged a glance with Leng Xu. His emotions were in turmoil, and he did not know how to describe them.
The two of them were both over fifty years old and were mature and rational. Leng Xu was indeed not the kind of person who would joke about such things with her.
“Fourth uncle!”
Xu Ling was still pondering when an angry voice suddenly sounded. She turned around and saw her son walking over.
Leng Yejin stood in front of the two of them. fourth uncle, you’re too ridiculous. Even if you had to save the Leng family’s face today, you shouldn’t have used my mother. Let me clean up today’s matter. You can just pretend that you didn’t say anything today.
Tong Lu caught up to him and pulled Leng Yejin back. Ye Jin, what are you doing? come with me. I have something to tell you.
The sudden intrusion of two juniors made the two elders a little uncomfortable. Xu Ling felt that his old face couldn’t take it at all. He didn’t know whether to stand or leave, but his eyes were fixed on Leng Xu longingly. He couldn’t move them away for a moment. He wanted to know if he was serious or not.
Leng Yejin wrapped his arm around Tong Lu’s waist to stop her from throwing a tantrum. He said to Leng Xu with a stern face, ” “Fourth uncle, you’ve gone too far!”
