After saying this, Pei Yang didn’t wait for Wang Cuilan to say anything, and directly turned around and ran towards the kitchen.
Can’t afford to mess with her, but can’t he just avoid her?
Watching Pei Yang’s hurried departing back, Wang Cuilan gave a light snort.
Hide?
Is this something that can be avoided?
Hasn’t this kid ever heard the saying, "You can dodge the first day of the lunar year, but not the fifteenth"?
Letting him go on like this is definitely not an option. She doesn’t demand that he find a girlfriend now, but he has to at least make a statement.
When Jiang Ran and Pei Huai came over, they noticed the atmosphere was slightly off.
Jiang Ran felt a bit strange, wasn’t everything fine before?
Why did the atmosphere suddenly become so delicate?
But seeing that it was time to eat, even if she wanted to ask, Jiang Ran held back and didn’t inquire.
Until after the meal.
Before Jiang Ran could ask, Wang Cuilan spoke first.
"Pei Yang, you have to give mom a statement on this matter."
Pei Yang looked at Wang Cuilan with a wry smile, "Mom, you say I’m not that old, so why are you rushing me so hard?"
"Although you’re not that old, if you keep dragging your feet like this, sooner or later, you’ll be old. By then, if you regret it, it’ll be too late."
Pei Yang, "..."
That’s not true at all...
Before Pei Yang could say anything more, Wang Cuilan waved her hand.
"You don’t need to tell me all those principles, I’ve lived so many years, don’t I understand better than you?"
The words Pei Yang was about to say were stuck in his throat.
No choice, Pei Yang could only look at Jiang Ran and Pei Huai for help.
"Don’t look at your brother and sister-in-law; their words don’t help either."
Pei Yang, "..."
Pei Yang let out a deep sigh, knowing there’s no way to avoid it this time.
Letting go of his brother was one thing.
But even his sister-in-law’s words didn’t work.
What else could he hope for?
After thinking for a moment, Pei Yang tentatively started to speak.
"Otherwise, mom, how about this, within five years, I promise to bring you a daughter-in-law."
Hearing this, Wang Cuilan almost laughed in anger.
"Five years? Why don’t you say ten years?"
Pei Yang immediately laughed, "Mom, if you think ten years would be okay, then that’s fine too."
"Dream on."
"It really is a nice dream, so I never dared to think about it before. Didn’t you bring it up, so I followed up on it?"
"Don’t say these useless things to me. Five years is definitely out, one year."
"One year is not possible."
"Then four years."
"No."
"Three years."
"I’m afraid that’s not possible either."
"Then two years." Wang Cuilan decided, "Just two years. If you still think it’s not possible, then I’ll go out and find someone to introduce to you; no need to wait even two years."
Now that things had reached this point, Pei Yang knew there was no room for bargaining.
Although he felt two years wasn’t really doable, actually getting this result was beyond his expectations.
So, Pei Yang didn’t continue to challenge Wang Cuilan’s patience and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, agreeing.
"Mom, don’t worry. Within two years, I promise to bring you a daughter-in-law."
Wang Cuilan just gave a faint smile in response.
But it was a skin-deep smile.
Seeing Wang Cuilan like this, Pei Yang wisely chose to keep his mouth shut!
