A prenatal betrothal? Infant matrimony?"
Jason looked at Phoebe, who was crossing her long legs. Was this woman his real fiancee?
She looked good and had a good figure.
However, marrying a person whom he had only met twice?
Jason really didn't intend to do that.
"Dad, it's the 21st century now! Why do you still want a prenatal betrothal? Besides, Brother Qin hasn't graduated from college. Isn't it too early?" Phoebe said casually, shaking her snow-white calf.
"Shut up!" Marvin scolded. "What do you know? The Wen family was loyal to everyone, including to government, haven't we went back our words? What nonsense are you talking about in front of your Uncle Shen and your aunt? Apologize now!"
"But what I said is true. Brother Qin is two years older than me, but he is still in school. I don't think we need to worry about it now. Anyway, we will settle down in Nandu in the future and have plenty of opportunities to develop relationships. Why do we need to be in such a hurry, right, Brother Qin?"
Seeing that Phoebe was like pushing the fire pit to him, Jason just opened his mouth, and he glanced at Uncle Dong, who was standing at the door and trying sending signal to him.
"Let's do everything according to the elders' arrangements. I have no objection." Jason grinned and said.
Phoebe raised her head and looked at Jason. Her beautiful eyes were full of anger and a murderous look like a tigress. She glared at Jason for a while, making him feel weak...
"Well, Jason is more sensible." Marvin nodded with satisfaction, then turned his head to David and said, "Old Shen, this kind of thing should not be delayed. I think it's better for us to decide the date today so that the two children can finish it early. As for me, because of my identity, it's not suitable to get them a high- profile wedding. I'd better let them get married on trips and go to some fun places abroad. What do you think?"
Before David could say anything, Mary had already nodded excitedly. "Good, we are getting old. If the two children get married earlier, they can give us a big fat boy sooner. Then I and Mr. Shen can enjoy a good life and don't have to worry about the younger generation."
"Well, you're right, Jason. Which country do you want to go on a honeymoon? I'll inform the consulate in advance, so that you won't encounter a lot of trouble if you go there and don't know each other well." Marvin asked with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. Listen to Phoebe. I don't have any objections," Jason said with a smile.
"Look! Look!"
Seeing that his daughter had put on her headphones, Marvin was so angry that he slammed the table.
"Phoebe, what's your attitude? Are you going to humiliate me in front of Uncle Shen and Aunt Chan? I think you've been spoiled all the time. Look at your manner! You don't know how to respect the older at all!"
Phoebe also took off a headset, stood up, and said, "It's your business to repay your kindness, but I don't want to get married, and I don't want to get married to a little boy. If you force me to get married, then I'll go back to Australia to go back to school. You can try."
After that, she strode away.
A little boy?
Uh... Jason touched his beard that had been scratched in the morning and felt that the characteristics of a man were still very obvious.
"Old Song, go with her!" David said in a hurry.
"Yes, Master." Uncle Dong promised. He looked at Jason worriedly, then turned around and walked out with Phoebe.
"I've spoilt her. Don't mind her, Old Shen," Marvin said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter. It's normal for a girl to have a little temper. She has just returned to China and suddenly said that she would get married. She can't accept it emotionally. It's also human nature." David laughed.
Marvin nodded and sighed, "In fact, Phoebe has always known about this. Today, I took her here to meet you. I thought she was mentally prepared, but I didn't expect her reaction to be so big. A grown girl can't be kept at home. I can't guess what she is thinking."
"Uncle Wen, I think that Sister Phoebe's thoughts may be a little different from what you think now," Jason said.
"Oh? You are all young people, so you should be able to understand each other's thoughts." Marvin smiled and encouraged Jason to continue with his eyes.
"Well... this, including my current thoughts, may not be the same as yours." Jason braced himself and said.
"Hmm?" The smile on Marvin's face gradually disappeared.
"Sister Phoebe and I can't get married," Jason said with difficulty, as if he had used up all his strength.
