The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

When Xu Zhixiao got home, she told her mother what had happened that day.

"Mom, you're absolutely right!"

Trust your judgment in judging people.

"Mom, what should we do next?"

"Since Xiaolu has resigned, let him rest for a while." Xu's mother set the tone, seemingly trying to ease the tension, but actually revealing her true intentions: "It just so happens that you two also have time to prepare for pregnancy."

"Mom, I'm not ready to have a baby yet."

"You can't do it if you're not prepared." Aunt Xu shook her head.

He said, "People are anxious when they don't have a job, and what you're doing is giving Xiaolu a sense of security."

"That seems to make sense."

Xu Zhixiao was easily persuaded by her mother.

Everything was exactly as Mom expected.

First, demonstrate your strategist's abilities to gain your daughter's trust, then easily move on to the next step.

"Xiao Lu is knocking on the door, go open it quickly."

"Why is he here?"

"I invited him to dinner."

Xu Zhixiao leaned over and opened the door, her eyes meeting Lu Yuan's.

The happiest thing during a relationship is when your partner does something touching behind your back, making you feel sure you are surrounded by love.

But when you try to get to the bottom of what the other person is thinking, you happen to meet their eyes.

Their eyes darted around, but no one spoke.

A thousand words remain unspoken.

Only the realm of love lingers around.

If this were placed in a corner game, the heart value representing favorability would quickly soar to 100.

So Xu Zhixiao didn't ask a single question.

She said, "You've worked hard."

Many people feel that they are not good at being a husband or wife, but this is something that does not need to be learned in advance.

When you genuinely want to be that role, you'll naturally do it.

Xu Zhixiao almost subconsciously took Lu Yuan's coat and hung it on the coat rack in the entryway.

Then she gracefully straddled his arm.

What did you do today?

Looking for a best man.

"Who did you contact?"

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Lü, Ma Jiahao, Xu Zicheng."

"The groomsmen are a very diverse group."

Xu Zhixiao was curious about the groomsmen, but not that curious.

What she really wanted to ask was something else, but she was too embarrassed to say it...

So she kept asking all sorts of questions:

Did they deduct your pay if you resigned immediately?

"Did the boss give you a hard time?"

Lu Yuan tilted his head and glanced at her:

Are you asking if it's okay to record a wedding and share it online?

"Mmm." Xu Zhixiao smiled and said, "I even want to record and send it out right now."

Xu Zhixiao was overjoyed.

That's it!

Fall in love with someone who understands your language, so you don't have to spend your whole life translating your own soul.

But Lu Yuan shook his head.

He said, "Not for now."

"ah?"

"My matchmaking career isn't over yet."

"All right."

Xu Zhixiao didn't ask any further questions.

A girl who longs for love always hopes to receive more blessings from others.

But it's okay, this will work too.

"Stop talking, we'll be talking to each other for the rest of our lives."

Old Xu urged the young couple to come and eat quickly.

A warm yellow chandelier hangs directly above the dining table, where food steams gently, and the table is filled with a whole table of home-style dishes.

Old Xu sat in the main seat, chatting with Lu Yuan about their future work plans.

With a gentle smile, Xu's mother picked up her phone and recorded a video of the dishes on the table and her daughter and son-in-law.

I then shared it in the family group chat.

Then he flipped the phone screen over to show Lao Xu: "Look at the message his second aunt replied, it's quite literary."

"What are you saying?"

"New swallows are appearing in front of the hall."

"Isn't that a good way to put it?"

"What should I say in response?"

This problem stumped Xu's mother, who stood there holding her phone, deep in thought.

Xu Zhixiao was propping her head up beside him, preparing to make a bold decision.

He wanted Lu Yuan to serve her some food.

Old Xu's family has always used serving chopsticks since they were little. It's healthy, but they also always use serving chopsticks to pick up food.

Perhaps it was to help Lu Yuan integrate better.

Since their marriage was arranged, the use of serving chopsticks has been canceled, and now the process of serving food has also been canceled.

"I want to eat some pork ribs."

Xu Zhixiao subtly nudged Lu Yuan's arm.

She chose the furthest one.

Lu Yuan didn't think anything of it and stood up to put some ribs on her plate.

Normal people probably wouldn't think it's a big deal.

But Xu Zhixiao covered her mouth and chuckled.

Then she picked up a large shrimp and put it into Lu Yuan's bowl without saying anything.

Lu Yuan picked it up and peeled it for her.

"I'm so happy."

Xu Zhixiao leaned back in her chair and sighed sincerely.

She looked around at her home where she had lived since childhood, her parents, and her future husband, and silently closed her eyes to pray: "Year after year."

"Just reply with this!"

Xu's mother had a flash of inspiration, picked up her phone, took a group photo of the four of them, and sent it to the family group chat.

The caption below reads "Year after year".

Everyone simultaneously flashed a peace sign.

Old Xu didn't want to do it, but his mother forced him to do it.

Perhaps feeling embarrassed, Old Xu tried quickly to regain his composure as the head of the household:

"It's too late today, Xiaolu can stay at home."

The elderly couple's feelings are clear to everyone.

However, Lu Yuan had no intention of staying overnight, only saying, "I have things to do tonight."

"Alright then."

...

After dinner, Xu Zhixiao went downstairs to see Lu Yuan off.

The two were taking a walk in the neighborhood and also walking their dog.

"Snoopy feels like our own child, so tiny."

"How could I have given birth to such a stupid dog?"

Snoopy looked unhappy and howled at Lu Yuan.

Although he was brought back by Lu Yuan, he doesn't seem to like Lu Yuan very much.

So Lu Yuan got into a fight with Snoopy.

Xu Zhixiao watched from the side, observing the shadows cast under the streetlights.

"There are two shadows under the streetlight, one is mine, and the other is also mine."
