Chapter 279: Will The Gold Be Cashed In?
In every era, there are people who are head over heels in love, and Si Xiaohui exemplified that for this time. She believed everything Song Yu said, as long as she could be with Song Yu, she was willing to endure sleeping on the streets.
She was certain that as long as she was willing to suffer alongside Song Yu, he would be able to provide for her and eventually, they would have a house and money. Life was bound to get better and better.
In short, she was firmly committed to staying with Song Yu, nobody should dare try to stop her.
Song Yu then made his stand: "Big brother, sister-in-law, you rest assured, I will definitely treat Xiaohui well in the future. I will love and cherish Xiaohui for the rest of my life, I will never let Xiaohui suffer. I will always be good to Xiaohui, even if the sea dries up and the rocks crumble, I will only love her. Even if it means I have to die for Xiaohui, or kneel and drink the water she uses to wash her feet, I’m willing. Big brother, sister-in-law, please bless Xiaohui and I to be together! I truly love Xiaohui."
Song Yu was not experienced in such scenarios. He wasn’t sure how to win Si Chen’s approval, but he thought expressing only his genuine feelings for Xiaohui wouldn’t be wrong, right?
Wasn’t Si Chen’s standard for a brother-in-law someone who loved Xiaohui?
He thought his sincere confession added brownie points. Si Xiaohui, moved by his words, felt tears welling up in her eyes. She believed she had found the right person and that she had fallen into a blessing.
Tong Yao was disgusted, she felt goosebumps all over her body. Such a crude and explicit confession was awkward to hear. She didn’t understand why Song Yu had the guts to say it, especially in front of her and Si Chen.
What could a man, who forsakes his dignity and has no integrity for love, ever achieve in the future?
Despite her patience, Tong Yao couldn’t help but make a cutting remark, "Merely a day together, you haven’t even managed to feed her a proper meal yet, and you say you can treat Xiaohui well?"
