Chapter 94 - Chapter 94: Try Getting Along
Hearing this, the old couple looked at each other.
“Young man, what do you do?”
“i am a soldier,” Zuo Huo said.
The old couple frowned. Yu Yong was a soldier. It wasn’t easy for her daughter to jump out of the fire pit of Yu Yong’s family. If the person she married for the second time wasn’t as good as the first, she might as well take the child and live by herself.
Anyway, her daughter did not lack money. When she raised Baby Xuan in the future, she would still enjoy life with him!
Guessing that the old couple would compare him to Yu Yong, Zuo Huo paused and continued, “Uncle, I’ve already retired from the army. I’m currently working at the Tobacco Bureau.”
He had already retired from the army for more than a month, but perhaps because he had been too serious in the army in the past, those soldiers were still so nervous that they could not speak when they saw him.
“A job at the Tobacco Bureau? Then you should be able to earn a lot of money a month, right?” Gu Li asked with a frown.
“Yes, a month’s salary and bonus is indeed not a small sum. I still have a two-bedroom house and a car in the capital. My parents also live in the capital, but they rarely care about me and we usually don’t live together.”
Zuo Huo’s words made the old couple very satisfied. It was one thing for the Tobacco Bureau to work, but it was actually a household registration in the capital!
He had a house and a car, but he didn’t live with his parents. Such a reliable and capable man who didn’t have to worry about conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn’t be found! Gu Li began to wonder why Zuo Huo had taken a fancy to Song Yao.
“That… young man…”
“My name is Zuo Huo,” he said calmly.
“Zuo Huo, stop working and come in for tea! There’s no reason for you
to work!” Gu Li said and wanted to drag Zuo Huo in.
Zuo Huo could not refuse her kindness, but in the end, he was still dragged in by Gu Li.
“Quick, try my home-cooked food! Yao likes it very much!”
Zuo Huo picked up a piece with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth. He had to admit that his future mother-in-law’s culinary skills were really good. No wonder Song Yao liked to eat it.
Gu Li sat opposite Zuo Huo. “You know about our Yao, right? She was divorced once before and even had a child. If you don’t mind…”
“I don’t care about that. All I care about is Song Yao. Even if she doesn’t want to marry me, I’m willing to marry her.”
Zuo Huo’s words made Gu Li feel comfortable. She smiled and said, “If our Yao had a husband like you, I would be much more at ease! Otherwise, as her mother, I won’t feel good when I see her waking up early and going into the dark all day to earn money.”
After Gu Li finished speaking, she grabbed Zuo Huo’s hand and said, “I think you’re not bad! If the two of you…’
“Mom!” Song Yao came out of the house in her pajamas. “What are you two talking about?”
“It’s nothing!” Gu Li smiled and went up to him. She found Zuo Huo, her future son-in-law, pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked at him. Her Yao had suffered for so long. It was finally over!
Song Yao sat in front of Gu Li. “Mom, Captain Zuo and I are not what you think.”
“What do you mean?” Gu Li was completely stunned. Captain Zuo wasn’t Song Yao’s boyfriend? Then why had she said so much to him just now?
Song Yao said, “Captain Zuo is just here…’
“I’m here to help at home!” Zuo Huo interrupted Song Yao. “And just because it’s not now doesn’t mean it won’t be in the future!”
He cast a burning gaze at Song Yao. “Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?”
“You don’t have that kind of relationship with Yao now?” Gu Li was dumbfounded. She never expected that Zuo Huo would take the initiative to woo her daughter!
She immediately pulled Song Yao aside. “Did he woo you?”
Song Yao didn’t deny it.
Gu Li was even more excited. “Then why don’t you try being with him? If such a good man is snatched away by others in the future, you’ll regret it!”
“I think if he really gets together with me, he’ll regret it!” Song Yao sighed. “He’s so outstanding. Why would he like someone like me who’s divorced and still has a child?”
“I don’t think so! You’re beautiful and know how to earn money. Your personality is good. Yu Yong doesn’t like you because he doesn’t have good taste!”
After Gu Li finished speaking, she leaned close to Song Yao’s ear and said, “And I don’t think he’s the kind of person who will easily abandon a relationship. You can spend some time with him.”
In any case, it was normal for young people to fall in love and break up these days!
Song Yao looked at Zuo Huo in the living room and gritted her teeth.. Should she try spending some time with him?
