Chapter 1562: Chapter 1562: I Want to Get Engaged
"What, you don’t believe me? I’m so good-looking, smart, and capable. Is it that strange?" Yiyi sharply sensed he was laughing and immediately got flustered.
Ling Kong quickly laughed and soothed her: "I believe you, of course I do."
"Hmph."
"So, have you taken a liking to anyone?"
"There are a few that are pretty good-looking, smart, and from suitable families."
"Really? Do you like them?" Ling Kong’s face turned icy, his eyes flashing coldly and slightly narrowing.
Did he miss something?
"Not really, my standards are very high. Ordinary people, I, Jun Yiyi, wouldn’t take a liking to."
Ling Kong’s expression finally improved and he chuckled: "For an excellent girl like Yiyi, naturally, ordinary people aren’t worthy!"
Anyway, only he is worthy, everyone else can just go off to grow mushrooms.
"What about you?" Yiyi casually asked, though her heart was a bit nervous, her ears perked up.
"Me? I’m not as in demand as Yiyi. No girls like me at all."
Ling Kong put on a pitiful face as if nobody wanted him.
"..." Yiyi gritted her teeth in anger. Keep bragging, even the gossip magazines reported that he was the dream guy for so many girls.
Hmph, and she knew every time he attended a party, he was the one the socialites competed to dance with, with plenty declaring their love for him openly. He’s definitely saying this on purpose, see how smug he is, truly annoying.
"So you don’t like anyone? You haven’t dated anyone?"
She couldn’t help but probe.
"No, work is too busy; there’s no time for it. Besides, ordinary girls aren’t worthy of me either." Ling Kong smiled deeply.
Hmph, so smug. Yiyi rolled her eyes: "Hasn’t Aunt Mu urged you?"
"Of course she has, but I said I want to earn good wedding money first. After all, raising a wife isn’t easy; I have to work hard. Otherwise, how will I make sure my wife is well-fed and happy? But since I’m already twenty-four, I’m thinking about getting engaged soon. Even Xiao Xier is married and has kids now; I, as her brother, can’t fall too far behind."
Yiyi’s heart suddenly throbbed with a bit of pain, her expression a little somber. She didn’t want to care, but she couldn’t help asking.
"So, Brother Ling Kong, you’ve set your sights on someone? Who’s going to be my sister-in-law?"
Judging by his tone, it seemed he already had someone he liked; otherwise, why would he be thinking about getting engaged?
Engagement isn’t a simple thing; it means he intends to marry that girl soon.
Brother Ling Kong was actually going to get married; she hadn’t even thought about it. Meeting him again, the first thing she hears is his engagement news.
Who is that girl?
"I can’t tell you yet, but you’ll meet her at the party tomorrow night." Ling Kong laughed mysteriously.
Yiyi felt a pang of sadness, a smothering feeling in her chest, deeply uncomfortable. That girl was also coming to her birthday party, hmph, it’s her show, not a place for them to flaunt their love.
"Did you call just to tell me this?"
"Of course not, I want to ask for your help."
"Help? No time!" Yiyi was infuriated, hmph, what a joke, he actually wants her help, help him set up, so he can take the opportunity to express love to that girl at her birthday party?
Pfft, Jun Yiyi is not that kind-hearted.
"Yiyi, do you remember what I told you when we were kids?"
"I don’t remember, I don’t remember." She played dumb, she didn’t want to hear it, just didn’t want to help.
Ling Kong laughed: "If you don’t remember, I’ll tell you again."
