Chapter 373 What Kind of Man
"We've been talking for about half a year, right?"
Jiang Lili's mother, Wang Meihua, typed on the keyboard and replied to an email, then asked.
Jiang Lili was nestled on the sofa. When he heard this question, his mood suddenly became tense. He pretended to be nonchalant and nodded: "Well... Actually, it's more than that. There is no need to add a small character in front of half a year."
"Oh..." Wang Meihua picked up the coffee, but saw that the cup had reached the bottom. Seeing this, Jiang Lili stood up quickly, ran to her mother with bare feet, picked up her cup and went to the coffee machine.
Wang Meihua saw that her daughter always disliked wearing shoes at home, and she sighed helplessly, "Can your boyfriend tolerate this habit?"
Jiang Lili thought of a time before when she stepped on the cold tiles for a long time, and the soles of her feet were dirty and cold. She had a bad intention and asked Yiyang to lie on the bed and said she wanted to give him a massage. After getting off the bed, she climbed onto the bed and sat aside. She lifted up her dirty feet and stepped on his back twice, which made him shiver with coldness.
Thinking of that scene, I was a little distracted and didn't notice that a strange smile appeared on my face.
Wang Huamei noticed Jiang Lili's expression, looked at her strangely, and said, "But to be honest... the conversation took quite a long time."
"Hmm... not bad."
"How long do you plan to talk for?"
"Uh... I haven't thought about this yet."
"Are you getting married or not?"
At this time, Wang Huamei had finished typing the last word of the email, and then began to check it from beginning to end, while asking casually.
Get married or not?
Jiang Lili was stunned by Wang Huamei's question. In her default situation, she did not have the option of not getting married.
Naturally, Wang Huamei had other ideas in mind.
This era is too impetuous, especially at her family's income level, and they take many things very lightly... Of course, it's not that she and her husband take this matter lightly, but there are too many examples around them. .
Not married...
Whether you are a man or a woman, when your income reaches a certain level, it has become a normal phenomenon to ride a donkey and find a horse. There is a theory that the physical attraction between opposite sexes only lasts for two months, and the emotional attraction for more than two months , either they can’t find the next partner, or both parties have noble sentiments, turning physical attraction into soul attraction.
I have been worried about this before... Although I have never shown it and do not want to put pressure on my daughter, as a parent, I still worry that my daughter will meet someone unkind, or that she has not been in love for a long time, and now she meets someone. Once you reach one, you will find after a while that falling in love is just that big of a deal, it loses its novelty, and your attitude towards relationships becomes the worse one you imagined.
It's not without reason, the fundamental reason is still... my daughter once said that her boyfriend is six years older than her.
He must be in his thirties then.
In terms of aesthetics, Li Li has been somewhat obsessed by her family since she was a child. Whether it is her father, several uncles, or even herself as a mother, they are all good-looking and have often received love letters since she was a child.
Daughters who grow up in such an environment will probably have no lower requirements for appearance.
So in her mind, she can actually roughly outline a simple outline of her boyfriend...
She is in her early thirties, looks quite handsome, and trust in Li Li's taste can also lead to more things. She has a casual personality, but she has standards for life. The other party must match her in terms of values and outlook on life, or have Almost the same vision, or even higher...
She has taken her daughter to meet many outstanding people since she was a child, and her vision...at this point, whether he matches or is higher than hers, that man's rank is not low.
Adding all these together, we can roughly piece together a basic appearance of that man.
She is in her early thirties, good-looking, has good taste, and her emotional intelligence should also be high. Her rank is probably matching or even higher than that of her daughter.
Then the question is, for such a man, it is absolutely impossible for his daughter to be his only emotional experience.
This matter cannot be scrutinized in detail, because the conclusion will always develop in the worst direction.
It is probably difficult for two people to have equal love styles. Wang Huamei prefers that the man be compatible with the daughter.
This kind of backward compatibility is conditional, that is, her daughter's attraction to her should be continuous... Although she is absolutely confident in her daughter's conditions in all aspects, she does not have much confidence in this matter. For that kind of conceived man, novelty is more important than liking.
In fact, this is the case for most men, but the vast majority of ordinary men can't find the next one. If their ideas are similar to those of a good man, that man has lost his sense of freshness towards Li Li, and he will probably be able to do it very well. Find the next girl to throw yourself into your arms quickly.
Of course, all the above speculations are planning things in the worst direction.
What if the other person is a responsible person, devoted to feelings, and has extremely high moral cultivation?
Although she rarely interferes with emotional matters, after all, she is the only precious daughter, Li Li, who always pays close attention to her. Fortunately, since her daughter fell in love, some clues can be seen from her emotions... almost none. You can probably tell from seeing her when she's depressed that at least so far she is satisfied with this relationship.
Sometimes I also think about whether it is the right thing for the couple to not interfere at all with their daughter's choice of mate. This model is based on trust in the daughter and knowing her taste and cognitive abilities. But if she encounters A man of much higher rank than her... it's not impossible.
Jiang Lili hummed a little tune, poured herself a cup of coffee, took the two cups together, and sat across from her mother.
Wang Huamei had already finished checking the email, clicked send, and shut down the computer.
Jiang Lili picked up the coffee. This new coffee machine she bought at home can directly make latte. It was also the first time for her to use it. She took a sip. Uh... it was so bitter. It seemed that the milk was added too little. Next time, I would like to use it. Add milk to 80...
"Are you with him?"
Jiang Lili, who was sipping coffee, almost spit out the coffee after listening to her mother's words. She put the cup down in embarrassment and said shyly: "Mom... what are you talking about?"
Wang Huamei looked at her daughter, who was still like a teenage girl, with some helplessness, and said seriously: "It's really embarrassing to talk about this, but you have to say it... before you are sure that that person is your ultimate Before you return home, mom must seriously remind you of something... Well, you must take safety measures."
Jiang Lili's face turned red and she said, "Mom..."
Wang Huamei looked at her daughter's expression and suddenly realized something terrible...
"Could it be..."
Jiang Lili quickly looked up. She was thinking about lying to get through. Suddenly she thought of Yi Yang holding her hand and getting along with her, and his promises. For a moment, she felt that there was no need to lie. She lowered her head again and gently said He nodded and said "Yeah" quietly.
Wang Huamei blinked, picked up the coffee, and took a sip. There was no taste in her mouth, and she felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward. She put down the cup and laughed dryly: "Is that so..."
"daughter……"
Wang Huamei's attitude towards this matter was not that feudal, and she would not blame her daughter. After all, she understood this era. After thinking about it, she asked: "I haven't asked you before, and I don't have anything to do today. Our mother Girls, let’s have a good chat, can you tell us about your boyfriend?”
Jiang Lili nodded slightly.
She knew that her parents still misunderstood her, thinking that her boyfriend was six years older than her, but she didn't know that she was older than him. But she didn't know what kind of mentality it was because of, and she had never meant to take the initiative to explain.
In addition to the worries about secular concepts, the more important thing is probably that I hope to scare them well when I meet them.
Thinking about it, some of the information he occasionally revealed gradually built an image of Yi Yang in their minds. He was mature and handsome. No matter how they understood these terms, the answers they got were probably very different from the actual Yi Yang. , and then on the day of the meeting, all the previous impressions were overturned, and I was stunned. That scene... would be very interesting.
Of course, this matter is risky. After all, no matter whether they take the initiative to mention it or not, their parents will continue to try to accept that image in their hearts. And when the day of the real meeting, the image collapses, what will happen is really unknown. Easy to say.
But no matter...just think of this as the last time you will be willful in front of your parents.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lili suddenly felt sad. Thinking that if she really became Yi Yang's daughter-in-law, she would not be able to be free and willful in front of her parents, which also meant that her youth was really over. Thinking of this, she suddenly Feeling a little sad, I took my mother's hand and said, "Well, Mom, you can ask."
"How tall is he...?"
"One meter eighty six."
"Wow, that's pretty high."
"hey-hey."
"Where did you study for your undergraduate degree?"
"Tunghai University."
"Graduated from Donghai University?" Wang Huamei was a little surprised and said, "That's a student from a famous school..."
"Hey...hehe." Jiang Lili could only pretend not to hear the word "graduation".
"what for?"
"finance."
After all, my brother said that the angel investment he made was not a lie.
For a long time, Jiang Lili didn't care about Yi Yang's material conditions, but it was impossible for Yi Yang not to care.
She knew the legacy Yi Yang's father had left for him, and also knew what he was doing in school. Although based on her mother's income level, what he was doing could only be described as "little trouble", but Occasionally, she heard him talk about his predictions about future trends. That kind of confident light, talking freely, and giving advice was really charming. It made her believe without reservation that he could really make a career in school. .
Of course, it doesn't matter even if it fails. If it doesn't work, just raise him for the rest of his life.
Failed men are also very handsome. The worst result is that he will inherit his mother's company and let her train him well. After her mother retires, she will let him be the president. She will fire anyone who dares to say bad things.
Alas, am I too love-minded?
Wang Huamei thought about it again, thinking about what kind of questions are valuable. What she wants to know is whether the man's character is good or not, but her daughter may not be able to give a reliable answer.
"How did you meet him?"
Jiang Lili thought for a while and said shyly: "It's probably the first time we struck up a conversation. On a rainy day, the two of us waited together for the rain to stop."
"Um."
"After chatting for a while, the rain started to lighten up a bit, so I wanted to leave in the rain. But he didn't want to, so I said he was being pretentious and took me away."
Wang Huamei was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "Huh? You took the initiative..."
Jiang Lili said proudly: "Yes, the whole relationship was led by me..."
Wang Huamei's expression became strange, and it was really difficult to understand this matter...
A man in his thirties is completely dominated by his daughter when it comes to love? This this……
Some of the previous outlines of the man were overturned.
What kind of image would it look like if it met such conditions?
A dull man who is particularly strong in a certain field, but doesn't know how to fall in love?
For example, a person engaged in scientific research, such as a certain painter? A musician? He attracted his daughter in the field that he was proficient in, and the daughter took the initiative to contact him. He was all-powerful in his field, just like her husband, dedicated and serious, full of masculine charm, but when it came to relationships, he really didn’t how come……
No, no, as I said just now, I'm in finance...
How many people in finance have that kind of image?
Wang Huamei was confused for a while.
"Then...what does he look like?"
"Tall, handsome, better-looking than a celebrity, gentle and introverted, but very powerful. You will like him."
Wang Huamei couldn't imagine such an image for a while, and couldn't help but ask: "Um...do you have a photo? Can you..."
Jiang Lili thought for a while and said, "Mom...do you want to see him?"
"Ah? This..." Wang Huamei was slightly startled. Of course she had met, but she didn't want to put any pressure on her daughter, so she never took the initiative to mention it.
"Do you want to, Mom?"
"May I?"
"Okay!" Jiang Lili smiled: "Mom... I know you may not believe it, but this boy is the boy I want to hold hands with for the rest of my life."
"He will surprise you and make you unbelievable. When you see him, you will be shocked. Thinking that Li Li has found such a boyfriend..."
"Actually, I'm already prepared to be scolded."
"But as long as you put aside those labels on him and get to know him seriously, you will find that he is really great! He will definitely bring me happiness."
After listening to Jiang Lili's words, Wang Huamei's expression became more and more strange, and she became a little uneasy...
"Unbelievable? Shocked? It sounds...it seems like it's not easy for me to accept...but you are very confident that you are a great person...I was confused and even more curious." Wang Huamei said this At that time, I felt happy and sad, worried about gains and losses, and couldn't help but say: "Then... when do you plan to let me see him?"
"He will return to Hanning City tomorrow. I'll ask him to wait for you downstairs in your company. The three of us will have dinner together."
Wang Huamei thought for a while and nodded: "Okay."
