CH 114

From the time An Yan opened his mind until he came here, he had always been just a hamster. He had never even considered who his parents were or where they were.

So it was hard for An Yan to understand why the human An Yan cared so much about this question or how the answer could make a difference to him.

But at least An Yan could sense through the human boy’s memories that he cared and was curious about this question deep down.

So An Yan nodded. “I want to know.”

An Mu was not surprised by this answer. She took a deep breath and spoke slowly, “Since Yan Yan wants to know, then I will…”

“Ding!” An Mu’s words were interrupted by the sudden ring of the doorbell outside.

An Mu froze for a moment, seemingly at a loss for words, while An Yan hurriedly got up and went to the door.

He hurriedly pulled the door open when he saw who was standing outside and said with a smile, “Grandpa Cheng, Auntie Lin, what brings you here? Please come in.”

An Mu finally came back to her senses and hurriedly gathered her emotions before getting up and walking over.

Although Cheng Yi was the last to walk in, he was the first to speak, “Auntie, this is my grandfather and this is my mother. Please forgive me if I’m rude for suddenly visiting you.”

An Mu was indeed surprised by the sudden visit of Cheng Yi’s grandfather and mother, but this did not affect her hospitality.

After welcoming them in, An Mu guided them to their seats in the living room, smiling and exchanging pleasantries.

An Yan wanted to prepare tea and snacks, but was stopped by Cheng Yi: “I’ll go, you stay here with auntie.”

“Oh.” An Yan was unsure, so he obediently sat down.

After a few pleasantries, An Mu finally started to run to the main topic, “I wonder why Old Marshal Cheng and sister Cheng Lin suddenly came to the door today. Is there something important? “

Although An Mu knew about the relationship between her son and Cheng Yi, she thought the two children were just friends and were not yet in a relationship.

Therefore, An Mu was indeed a little confused when two elders of the Cheng family suddenly visited. She knew that Cheng’s grandfather had once been a marshal in the military, so she was inevitably a little formal, even though it was the other party visiting her home.

A cordial and kind smile appeared on Cheng Lin’s face as she softly said, “We are actually here today because of that boy Cheng Yi, and Yan Yan’s matter.”

An Mu was stunned. She remembered that her son was completely unenlightened during his visit to the Cheng family last weekend.

But if the two kids had indeed confessed their love, it would have been at most a matter of establishing a romantic relationship. It shouldn’t be so serious that the two elders of the Cheng family, especially Old Marshal Cheng, would have come to the door personally, right?

Is it possible that…… 

A terrifying thought came to An Mu’s mind: could it be that something indescribable had happened between her silly son and Cheng Yi, and the elders of the Cheng family were alerted? And that’s why it has come to this?

In that case, had these two come to the door today to break up her silly son and Cheng Yi?

After all, a big family like the Cheng family must be very concerned about the right match when it comes to marriage matters. How could they possibly look at her silly son, who is from an ordinary family?

For a while, An Mu’s mind had at least ten thousand dog blood scenarios, and An Mu’s expression became increasingly serious. It seemed that this was a bad visit.

Cheng Lin had been secretly observing An Mu’s expression, and she saw that the originally mild expression had suddenly become serious. Her whole body tensed up, and she couldn’t help but stutter in her heart and scream that it was not good.

Before she came here, she suspected that An Yan’s mother might not like her eldest son, and now her suspicions were confirmed!

Cheng Lin sighed in her heart. For a while, she didn’t know whether to continue speaking. Although it was normal to be rejected, Ah Yi would definitely be very upset.

Although she usually mocked and teased her son with all kinds of words, Cheng Lin still loved him.

An mu was standing by, and she naturally noticed the change in Cheng Lin’s expression. Her fears must be true, otherwise Cheng Yi’s mother would not have found it so difficult to talk.

The two mothers filled their minds with the scenes they had envisioned, but sighed at the same time after a quick glance at each other.

“Ahem,” Grandpa Cheng started talking when he saw that Cheng Lin had paused and took over, “Actually, we are visiting today to discuss an engagement between Ah Yi and An Yan.”

Alas, the two children are really going to…… An Mu snapped out of her lamentations. Wait, what did she just hear?

Cheng Yi’s grandfather and mother made a special visit to get her son engaged to Cheng Yi?

Did she hear it right?

An Mu was a bit confused for a while. She was both surprised and wondering if she had heard something wrong.

Cheng Lin saw An Mu’s reaction, and she vaguely sensed that something was wrong. She cautiously followed Grandpa Cheng’s words, “It’s indeed a bit early for Yan Yan to get engaged, but since the relationship between the two children is already stable and Ah Yi has decided on Yan Yan, it’s fine to get engaged. What does sister think? “

An Mu was immediately even more confused. It seemed that she had really heard correctly. But this… was too different from what she had imagined.

An Mu was having such a hard time accepting because she felt that the relationship between her son and Cheng Yi had only just begun, and was not at all ready to discuss engagement matters.

Secondly, the Cheng family had even sent two elders, one of whom was Cheng Yi’s grandfather, Old Marshal Cheng.

It’s not that An Mu looked down on herself, but there was a huge objective gap between the Cheng family and her own family. She really didn’t expect old Marshal Cheng to come to her to discuss an engagement between the two children.

Even if her silly son and Cheng Yi had been dating for a while longer and their families had agreed, An Mu would not have dared to think that Old Marshal Cheng himself would come to her door to propose an engagement.

After the initial surprise, An Mu couldn’t help but be moved. The Cheng family’ was showing how much they valued Yan Yan, themselves, and the relationship between the two children.

Thinking back on the wild thoughts that had just popped up, An Mu said, with a bit of a smile, “So it’s about this.”

Cheng Lin vaguely sensed something in An Mu’s behavior and hastened to persuade her, “I also know that it’s really abrupt to come to the door like this, but we really can’t do anything about it. Cheng Yi is grown up and he’s been moved for the first time. He’s decided on Yan Yan, and we can’t stop him. “ 

At this point, Cheng Lin looked at An Yan, who was sitting beside his mother, and said with a kind smile, “Yan Yan is indeed a good boy. It’s a blessing to Ah Yi that he likes him, and it is a blessing that Ah Yi has cultivated for several generations.”

Grandpa Cheng was particularly cooperative. “You’re talking about Ah Yi, but didn’t you also like Yan Yan so much from the first time you saw him that you almost refused to let him go home?”

Cheng Lin lowered her gaze and said with a bit of embarrassment, “Isn’t it because Yan Yan is too cute?”

Grandpa Cheng turned to look at An Mu and said, “To make you laugh, we rushed to settle this marriage because we were worried that this child, Ah Yi, was not likeable enough. We didn’t want such a good child like Yan Yan to be snatched away by another family’s child, so we wanted to take advantage of an engagement to keep Yan Yan. “

Cheng Lin: “……” I don’t think this part is in the plan we discussed.

An Mu: “……” This is so blunt that I don’t even know what expression to put on my face.

Cheng Yi, who came out of the kitchen with a fruit plate: “……” Grandpa, are you sure you’re helping me get engaged and not throwing damage?

The three people all had a blank look on their faces, but only An Yan righteously spoke up: “No! I like Senior Cheng Yi very much. I won’t be snatched away by anyone else!"

Cheng Lin: “……” How can this child be so simple?

An Mu: “……” Silly son, can you say less?

Cheng Yi put the fruit plate on the table. He was suddenly in a great mood and rubbed An Yan’s head, “Thank you, Yan Yan.”

Grandpa Cheng said cheerfully, “Seeing how well these two kids are getting along, I think this marriage is indeed just the right thing to do.”

An Yan nodded, “Senior Cheng Yi and I do have a very good relationship.”

Cheng Yi smiled, “Thank you, Yan Yan.”

An Mu: “……” Forget it, children and grandchildren are only blessed. Let them be.

The engagement was pretty much set in stone with An Yan’s addition, but the two sides didn’t rush to set a date.  After all, this was their first visit. It would seem that they didn’t value each other enough if everything was finalized at once.

The two sides chatted amiably for a few more minutes, then Grandpa Cheng took Cheng Lin and Cheng Yi and left.

After sending the guests away, An Mu couldn’t help but nudge An Yan on the forehead and say with anger, “How can you be so eager to send yourself out?”

An Yan covered his forehead and whispered with grievance , “But I really like Senior Cheng Yi, and he’s really nice to me. Isn’t it good to be together?”

An Mu couldn’t get angry at her silly son, so she could only glare at him and go back to her room.

Because of this interruption, both had temporarily forgotten what they had been discussing before they had a visitor.

An Mu returned to her room and was about to sit down when her light brain suddenly flickered twice. She turned it on and her face instantly turned cold.
