Because I simply love you-Chapter 484: Shin and Huian (3)

Chapter 484: Shin and Huian (3)

Xiang Qingge asked while serving tea. “So, how is everything in the hospital, Shin?”

Shin nodded. “It’s good, Aunt. All my patients are recovering under my treatment. Some have shown great progress, and there are two major surgeries planned, but I am confident that they will succeed. What else does a doctor want?”

Xiang Wei and Xiang Qingge nodded in appreciation. “That’s a fine way of thinking. Wei and I are also truly grateful to you for helping Huian recover. If not for you, then she wouldn’t have been standing before us like this,” her eyes teared a bit.

Huian smiled.

“It was my job, Aunt Xiang, and I couldn’t have done it without Huian’s help. The patient’s mental fortitude is just as important to recover, not just the treatment.”

Xiang Wei smiled. “En. So, tell us. What brought you two here?”

Shin silently took a deep breath. “Uncle, Aunt. I have come here to ask Huian’s hand in marriage.”

Huian slightly blushed and lowered her gaze.

The Xiang couple widened their eyes in shock.

Marriage?

They thought that Shin would introduce himself as Huian’s boyfriend and their relationship.

They looked at each other, visibly surprised.

When did things go as far as dating to marriage?

Shin continued with a determined gaze, looking straight at them. “I know that it might have come as a shock to you. But please know that I am fully serious and aware of what I am speaking. I love Huian with all my heart and would like to marry her and make her my wife. We came here to ask for your blessings.”

Huian nervously said, “Mom, Dad. I love Shin too, and I am also serious about marrying him. We really love each other and, and…”

Xiang Wei asked, “And?”

His intuition said that there was more to this.

Shin pressed his hand on hers.

“Uncle, Aunt. Huian is pregnant.”

“What!?” They both exclaimed at once. If asking about marriage took them by shock, then learning about her pregnancy made them stunned to a whole another level.

Xiang Qingge tremblingly spoke, “P-pregnant? Huian…is it true?”

Huian cleared her throat and nodded.

The elder Xiang couple had to take a few long minutes to digest everything.

“How…I mean when did it all…”

Xiang Wei said, “We knew that you two liked each other but didn’t know that things had already gone this far…” he coughed.

Now, it was Huian and Shin’s turn to get shocked. “Huh? You knew about us?”

“I mean, not about Huian’s pregnancy but on the island during the wedding anniversary celebration, we kind of figured it out that something was going on between you two.”

Xiang Qingge nodded. “And when you two came just now, I saw you from the window, and we figured that you two were definitely here together to talk about your relationship.”

Xiang Wei said, “We thought it was about dating, but then you suddenly asked her hand in marriage, and now I understand why.”

Suddenly, Shin and Huian didn’t know where to bury themselves.

They already knew about us!

But wait, even Uncle and Aunt Liang knew about us.

There was silence for a moment.

Xiang Wei seriously looked at them and said, “Qingge and I are happy about your relationship. Trust me. We are. If you two like each other, then there isn’t anything else that we want. But, are you two sure you aren’t marrying for the sake of the child?”

“Yes,” His wife agreed, “We don’t want you two to force yourselves in marriage because of the baby and let you make hasty decisions due to her pregnancy.”

Shin immediately shook his head. “Of course not, Aunt. Please trust me. We have discussed and thought about this carefully. I know that we haven’t really just dated and spent time together and it might seem like everything is going too fast, but I assure you that there will be no problem. No matter what, Huian will always be my priority, and I will keep her and our child happy. I will never let Huian down.”

Huian’s gaze turned a little blurry as her eyes stung in tears.

Shin’s resolute words struck not only shook Huian’s heart, but they won her parent’s hearts as well.

Xiang Wei and Xiang Qingge wanted nothing else than the assurance of Huian’s happy future.

They shared a glance and understood.

He chuckled. “Well then, we trust you two. I can see it clearly now that you are serious and ready about this. So, you have our blessings.”

Shin and Huian bloomed in joy. “Thank you so much!”

Xiang Qingge quickly hugged her daughter. “You…why didn’t you tell us before that you were pregnant? We are so happy! Wei, we are going to be grandparents!”

Now that it sunk in, Xiang Wei finally let out his excitement. “Yes, Qingge! Grandparents! Gosh, I have so many things to buy. We should start decorating our grandchild’s room!”

Shin chuckled.

“And then there are wedding preparations to do! Wei, we would be so busy!”

Then it struck him. “Wait. Do your parents know about you two?”

Shin nodded. “Yes, Uncle. Actually, we came here after just meeting Mom and Dad.”

“So what did they say? They are happy, right? I mean by Huian…” Xiang Qingge felt a little worried.

Huian laughed as tears streamed down her cheeks. “Mom, you wouldn’t believe that Aunt Liang beat Shin up with a broomstick because he didn’t propose to me before. She said we could have had three weddings on the island. Uncle Liang completely ignored him and even poured me tea.”

Shin’s mouth twitched in embarrassment. “You didn’t have to mention all that…”

“Why not? It was fun seeing you running away from her like a scaredy-cat.”

The elder Xiang couple burst out into laughter. It was now that they truly felt lighter and happier knowing that the Liangs were happy about their relationship too.

Shin looked at them with a wronged expression. “Aunt, did you see? Huian has already started to bully me…”

Xiang Qingge giggled and flicked Huian’s forehead. “Don’t you bully my son-in-law.”

Xiang Wei said, “Shin is a fine man. Don’t give him a hard time.”

Shin victoriously grinned.

Hah! I got my in-law’s full support!

Huian gasped. “Mom, Dad! How could you abandon me and side with him?”

The sweet banter and laughter livened up the Xiang villa even more.

Xiang Wei said, “Let me talk to Liang Zou and fix a meeting. We can have dinner together. After all, there are so many wedding preparations to start!”
