Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 384: Chapter 384: Fate Has Not Yet Arrived

After dining at Ying Xiaoya’s place, they all sat in the living room drinking tea and eating fruit. With Ning Ge and Xiao Ya, two lively souls, creating a cheerful atmosphere, Cheng Su found it slightly regrettable. If these two could come together, that would indeed be rather nice.

As the time seemed right, Qi Taiguo suggested that it was time to leave, and Ying Xiaoya naturally volunteered enthusiastically to see them out.

Once Qi Taiguo and Ning Ge were out of the way, Ying Xiaoya couldn’t wait to grill Cheng Su, ”Spill it, spill it, what did my mom whisper to you for so long in the kitchen today? Come on, report the military intelligence quickly.”

Cheng Su chuckled, pinched her little face, and said, ”Talking about military intelligence, are you planning to go to war with your mom?”

”Just tell me!” Ying Xiaoya pouted.

”What else could she say? Don’t you know what your mom cares about the most right now?” Cheng Su glanced at her.

Ying Xiaoya clicked her tongue, sounding somewhat dispirited, ”This is so embarrassing, she’s grabbed you as a matchmaker again, hasn’t she?”

Cheng Su nodded and looked back to see Qi Taiguo and Ning Ge talking in the distance. She then lowered her voice and said, ”Your mom, ah, has set her sights on Ning Ge.”

”No way!” Ying Xiaoya glanced back, pointing first at him and then at herself, ”Me and him? Impossible!”

”What’s impossible about that? You’re both single, get along well, and you’ve even done mischiefs together in the past!” Cheng Su said with raised eyebrows.

Ying Xiaoya protested, ”Definitely impossible. He’s like a brother to me. I’ve told you before, I’m not willing to be an old mother, waiting for him to grow up!”

”So what kind of guy are you looking for? An old man? Stable enough for you!” teased Cheng Su.

”That’s annoying!” Ying Xiaoya pouted and slapped her playfully, then fantasized aloud, ”Me? I just want someone who’s good to me, who indulges me in every way, who spoils and loves me, treating me like a child.”

Cheng Su rolled her eyes and muttered, ”Isn’t that just an old man? The way you are, you’re going to need an older guy. A May-December relationship would surely spoil you to the core.”

”Enough, I’m protesting here!” Ying Xiaoya said with a feigned huff, shrugging her nose in mock anger.

”Alright, I’ll stop teasing. No matter what you’re looking for, just communicate well with your mom, don’t make her worry. You’re a grown woman; it’s time to find someone!” Cheng Su advised.

”Got it, you’re as naggy as my mom. Can’t let you two get together anymore, plotting behind my back!”

Cheng Su gave her an annoyed glance and said, ”All right, go back inside. There are still lights here; it’s not safe late at night. Go on, we’ll wait until you’re in the building before leaving.”

Ying Xiaoya agreed, greeted Qi Taiguo and the others, and then went back on her own.

Qi Taiguo asked, ”What were you talking about?”

”What else could it be? Just the usual girlish worries.” Ning Ge interjected with a leg shake, while he took out a cigarette, offered one to Qi Taiguo, and lit one for himself.

Cheng Su teased him on purpose, ”You guessed wrong. Aunt Ying, ah, is thinking of taking you as her son-in-law!”

Ning Ge had just taken a drag when he heard this, and he started coughing violently, ”What, what did you say?”

”Actually, Xiao Ya isn’t bad, and you two make a good pair. Why not just consider dating each other?” Cheng Su probed him.

Ning Ge glared, exclaimed loudly, ”Have you ever seen a brother dating his own sister? She’s my sister!” Saying that, he walked off without paying her any more attention.

Cheng Su shook her head. Qi Taiguo wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said, ”Fate hasn’t arrived yet, don’t worry about it!”

”It’s a pity. They really are quite a good match!”
