Chapter 391 - 387 No Matter How Good the Promise Sounds
——————
Zhou Zhenghui was quite perceptive and held out the large cup of tea in front of his future mother-in-law. When he saw Little Zi’er easily taking it over and even helped her drink a few sips, and saw her breathing ease and her complexion return to normal, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her mother so angered by her, Xie Jingzi tearfully cried out, "Mom, if you really don’t like me being with him—"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhenghui seized the opportunity and said solemnly to Zhou Xiuhua:
"Mother, I apologize for upsetting you, it’s my fault. But I really am here sincerely to ask for your daughter’s hand in marriage. If you’re worried, I am ready to register and marry Little Zi’er immediately!"
Once Zhou Zhenghui heard Xie Jingzi’s guilty tone, he immediately spoke out again, his voice urgent and slightly louder, overpowering Xie Jingzi’s weak voice.
Right now, he could tell that his mother-in-law looked as if she could chew him up alive—and the little woman he had always wanted to take home was about to cast him aside from fright!
Scoff, don’t believe it? Didn’t you see her daring to throw his hand off in one swoop and dash to the opposite side!
As for the future mother-in-law...
Usually, this expression is mostly seen when a girl gets pregnant unexpectedly, and her mother would have this kind of expression. Quite coincidentally, he had seen this expression before, so now, he instinctively steered the conversation to a crucial point.
