Such a jerk, can’t Ying Xiaoya avoid him if she can’t afford to provoke him? Is it worth the trouble?
"If it were that simple. He’s shameless and deliberately creates the impression at the factory that he and I have a close relationship. After giving me a ride home, he learned my address and shamelessly showed up at my door with a big bag of tonics. My mom really likes him and is practically ready to package me up and send me out the door!" Ying Xiaoya said with a face full of frustration.
"Can’t you just tell your mom you don’t like him?" Cheng Su asked with a laugh, "She can’t force you to marry him, can she?"
"You haven’t met my mom, you don’t know what she’s thinking. She’s been looking down on me for a long time, constantly talking about which girl got married and which one had a baby, while I’m still an old maid who can’t get married." Ying Xiaoya said, pouting.
"But she can’t just force you upon meeting someone. I think that Zhang Yujun has quite the silver tongue, charming your mom beyond reason." Cheng Su said, narrowing her eyes.
She had seen through Zhang Yujun’s cunning heart at his self-introduction; it was quite deep, and Mother Ying was so eager for a son-in-law, wasn’t this a perfect match?
Ying Xiaoya laughed at her funny take, "I think you could set up a fortune-telling stall. Your guesses are spot-on."
Cheng Su pursed her lips and smiled, cleared her throat, and suggested, "There are a couple of options: first, you could quit your job. Second: tell your parents, let them see he’s not trustworthy. Third: in front of everyone, make it clear you have no feelings for him beyond a superior-subordinate relationship, though of course, that’s the last resort."
"I’ve just been assigned to start at the grassroots level, it hasn’t even been three months, it’s not so easy to just quit. Besides, our factory is having a five-year celebration, and I’ve just been given the task to choreograph a dance performance with a group of female workers!" Ying Xiaoya said listlessly.
