However, Miguel took the initiative to talk to her, "Are you going to graduate recently?"
"Of course" Rena said while chewing the apple.
Miguel smiled and didn't mind Rena's rudeness. "What are you going to do after graduation?"
"Are you still thinking about Leena?" Rena raised her eyebrows.
Miguel replied, "I am just caring about her."
Rena rolled her eyes.
Maybe Spencer might have heard it, so he cut in while playing the game, "You can work in our company after graduation!"
Rena immediately said, "What do you expect from a pig but a grunt!"
Yanni also joined them and said, "Brother in law, why does she always scold you? You are so pitiful!"
Spencer whispered to him. However, Yanni didn't save his face and said, "It turns out that beating is a kiss and cursing is love is like this?"
Rena lost her temper at once and shouted, "Spencer, if you keep talking nonsense, you are doomed!"
Seeing that they were fighting fiercely, Miguel couldn't help laughing. Seeing that Rena and Spencer were so lively, he thought of himself and Leena. At first, he and Leena were the first to know each other. Through the two of them, Rena and Spencer finally knew each other. But now, they had been together. Although they hadn't become boyfriend and girlfriend yet, they were obviously very intimate. But he was more and more distant from Leena.
Miguel looked down at his palm and smiled helplessly.
As soon as Leena and her mother finished cooking, the dinner was ready. The crowd gathered around a table to celebrate happily. They also forgot the embarrassment between Leena and Miguel.
It seemed that Mrs. Yang had something on her mind. She suddenly said, "Ask Mr. Carlson to have dinner with us someday. We didn't invite him before because it's not convenient. We have no place to cook at that time. Now we have found a place to live, and he did invite a famous doctor to help us. Even if we have nothing to repay, we should invite him to have a meal."
Hearing that, the lively atmosphere suddenly became cold. Everyone's smile froze, especially Leena's. She didn't know what to say for a moment.
Leena looked at Rena subconsciously, and Rena and Spencer looked at each other again. At last, Rena laughed and said, "Aunt, Leena has thanked Mr. Carlson before, there is no need to bother him. He is indeed very busy."
Lowering his head and shaking the spoon in his hand, Miguel didn't say anything. He just listened to the excuse of Leena and Rena.
Leena also said, "Yes, mother. I have thanked him in private."
"Well, can you let me thank him in person?"
Leena and Rena looked at each other and felt that Mrs. Yang was suspicious. Did she know something? Why didn't she let go of that matter? But in this situation, it was not convenient for Leena to ask Carlson over, especially when their marriage was not stable. If her mother knew that Leena had married such a man, she would definitely be worried.
When both of them didn't know what to say, Miguel gave a hand to her. He smiled and said, "Aunt, Mr. Carlson is really busy. If there is a chance, he will come to see you. You don't have to keep asking. After all, Leena can't decide Mr. Carlson's schedule, right?"
Leena nodded immediately, "Yes, mother. Mr. Carlson is really busy. I'll ask him out when he's free. You'll have a chance to meet him."
Mrs. Yang nodded and had to give up.
Taking a look at Miguel, she was a little grateful to him. Miguel smiled gently.
However, Mrs. Yang suddenly said, "You are not a child anymore. I don't know when you can find a good husband."
Hearing that, Leena's heart jolted again. Later, she even became careful when eating. Would her mother find her another blind date or something? That would be really troublesome. What's more, Carlson always wanted her to have a baby. Although she tried to use birth control, there was always an accident. If she was really pregnant, how could she explain it to her mother? Leena began to consider if she should tell her mother that she was married. Would it be disrespectful?
She was uneasy during the meal, because her mother always sighed, either over her or her brother Peterson. Mrs. Yang always sighed, "Your brother said he would come back to see me, but he hasn't come back yet. Alas, I don't know what he is doing."
