"In fact, your age is also good. Many people with your background don't get married in their 40s. Why are your parents so anxious?" Duan Manyu was a little confused.

"They are afraid that I am not interested in women and that I will not marry for life," he said.

Duan Manyu was stunned. "Er, are your parents afraid of your sexual orientation?"

"A little worried about that." he didn't hide anything.

"How can you worry about this? You didn't love clearly before..." her voice suddenly paused and didn't say any more.

Before falling in love with her, he loved Yao Shanshan, so she never doubted his sexual orientation.

But at this moment, she thought of the harm Yao Shanshan had brought to him before. Therefore, it is normal for his parents to have such concerns.

"Yes, because I loved Yao Shanshan before, my parents were afraid that I would never recover from this. They were afraid that Yao Shanshan would hurt me too deeply and make me lose the ability to love." Zhou Liye took the initiative to take Duan Manyu's words, "Man Yu, falling in love with Yao Shanshan is the most regretful thing in my life, but sometimes I think that if I didn't meet Yao Shanshan, maybe I won't have an intersection with you in my life. Maybe there are many things that have a reason and a result."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, gently stroked the bangs in front of her forehead and stared into her eyes. "If the pain was to let me meet you, then the pain is valuable to me. I enjoy it."

If he had not suffered those injuries, perhaps now he would linger among women, would not notice her, would not be interested in her, and would not understand what the happiness of falling in love with a person is.

Duan Manyu held Zhou Liye's face and put his forehead gently against his forehead. "Yao Shanshan is not lucky. She doesn't know what a good husband she missed. No matter how many injuries you suffered in the past, I will protect you in the future."

Zhou Liye's lips unconsciously raised a smile, "well, in the future, you will guard me."

It's so pleasant to be guarded by the people you love.

And he will also guard her and protect her and his family with his life. How lucky he is to fall in love with her in this life.

Duan Manyu was not surprised when she showed her parents the gift list given by the Zhou family. She saw her parents' surprise. You know, anything on it makes more money than their husband and wife in their whole life.

But after surprise, it is a kind of guilt.

"The Zhou family is really rich. It seems that their parents should like you very much. Xiaoyu, you should treat their parents well in the future." father Duan said.

"Well, I will." Duan man replied.

"I'll go out for a cigarette," said Duan Fu. He got up and went out of the house.

Duan's mother took Duan Manyu's hand and said, "Xiaoyu, your father... Is glad you are valued by your husband's family, but, just our family, I'm afraid..."

"Mom, I know everything," Duan man said. "If you think this gift list is too heavy, I'll discuss with Liye and keep everything simple."

"Don't worry, their Zhou family is a rich family. It's not a shame for them to be simple." Duan mother said, "take this gift list and put it next to you. As for our family, my parents will try their best to prepare some dowry for you, but... It's still a little shabby and I have to wrong you."
