Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 601: 173: Shangguan Dehui’s honesty, extremely defensive!_1

Calm.

Ni Yang seemed too calm to him.

Shangguan Dehui even had the illusion that Ni Yang already knew what he was going to say.@@novelbin@@

Although the kid was only eighteen years old, she gave Shangguan Dehui an inexplicable sense of oppression, the kind of feeling a guilt-ridden student has when seeing their teacher, but he was supposed to be that teacher.

Shangguan Dehui picked up his cup and took a sip of tea, trying hard to calm himself down as he carefully chose his words in his mind.

Ni Yang didn’t rush either, gently stirring the coffee in her cup, not saying anything before Shangguan Dehui spoke.

Although the atmosphere was quiet, it was not awkward.

It wasn’t until all the dishes were served that Shangguan Dehui finally spoke, “Yangyang.”

“Yes, go ahead.” Ni Yang put down the silver spoon in her hand and looked up at Shangguan Dehui.

Looking directly into the other person’s eyes when speaking shows basic respect.

Since Shangguan Dehui had something important to tell her, she naturally had to show the respect a junior should have.

“Yangyang, your mom and I actually met more than twenty years ago when I was a young laborer at a logging farm…” Shangguan Dehui calmly told Ni Yang about his past with Ni Cuihua, of course, omitting the part where they ‘fooled around’.

“Later, I went to many places looking for her. Maybe it was fate that we didn’t end up together. After a fleeting glimpse, I never saw her again.”

Gradually, Shangguan Dehui was no longer nervous.

Throughout the process, Ni Yang didn’t show any particular emotions. She was always calm and quiet, like a listener.

No wonder Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui got along so well yesterday.

So it turns out that they knew each other years ago.

Fate really is strange.

Shangguan Dehui continued:

“My name is Shangguan Dehui. I am 43 years old and currently teaching at Qinghua University. My mother still lives, I have two children, a set of twins, a boy and a girl. My wife died in childbirth years ago. I am now single and I would like to pursue your mother, Ni Cuihua!”

That’s right.

He wanted to pursue Ni Cuihua.

He didn’t want to leave any regrets from the youthful years that had passed more than twenty years ago.

Ni Yang was taken aback.

Even though she was prepared, she didn’t expect Shangguan Dehui to be so direct.

Love is between two people, as children, they have no right to interfere with their parents’ love.

The reason Shangguan Dehui told her all this was to seek the approval of this daughter, which shows that Shangguan Dehui respects Ni Cuihua and values this relationship very much.

The most important thing in love is respect.

This also proves that Shangguan Dehui is not a selfish man.

If he was selfish, he wouldn’t have told her all this.

Ni Yang gave a slight smile, “Uncle Shangguan, the most important thing in a relationship is mutual consent. I’m not my mom, I can’t speak for her, let alone make decisions for her. So, I think you’re going to have to talk to her about this.”

Ni Yang was speaking from the heart.

She won’t interfere with Ni Cuihua’s emotional life. As long as the other person’s character is good and has no ulterior motives, even if Ni Cuihua falls in love with a beggar, Ni Yang won’t object.

Moreover, Ni Yang had a very good impression of Shangguan Dehui.

Her intuition told her that Shangguan Dehui could give Ni Cuihua happiness, so she didn’t oppose Shangguan Dehui’s pursuit of Ni Cuihua.

For a moment, Shangguan Dehui began to question his own hearing and vision.

Isn’t Ni Yang angry?

He wants to pursue Ni Cuihua, and Ni Yang isn’t angry at all?

He had seen many single-parent families, where the children would oppose when one parent wanted to find a new partner, including the time with Lin Fang, when Chang Yue even showed a little resistance.

He originally thought that Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi were already quite sensible children. However, it turned out that Ni Yang was even more sensible than them.

Shangguan Dehui was even prepared for Ni Yang’s opposition and had thought of what to say to persuade her.

“So, Yangyang, you’re not against me pursuing your mother, are you?”

“No, I’m not.” Ni Yang continued: “She’s had a hard enough life in the former half, I hope the latter half could be a little sweeter for her. But, there is one thing I want to say first…”

As she reached this point, Ni Yang hesitated for a moment.

“Go ahead, Yangyang.”

Ni Yang said: “My mother is a person with a simple personality. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been cheated so horribly in the first half of her life. Uncle Shangguan, if you can win her heart, please make sure to treat her well. If not, I can do anything!”

This sentence carried a hint of warning.
