Chapter 677: Chapter 677 She Still Wants to Cry _1
He didn’t know how to say no.
But he also didn’t want his father to leave with regrets.
The close-shave his father had today scared him stiff. If he let his father go with regrets, he would feel guilty forever.
As for him… anyone could be his bride, except for Qiao Ning.
Maybe it was indeed time to sever any unacceptable thoughts while there was still time to save the situation!
“Brother Chai, shall we get engaged first?” Lin Xinxin suddenly pulled his hand and said expectantly.
...
Her intention was clear, to appease Father Chai with an engagement first.
But indeed, they should be getting married…
Having been together for so long now, he owed her an answer. Plus, his father had always been eager for him to marry Lin Xinxin, so he should agree.
Then under their expectant gazes, Chai Xiyang gave a slight nod and said in a deep voice, “Fine, let’s get engaged first.”
As soon as he said that, he suddenly saw Qiao Ning at the door!
Upon returning to the Chai Family home, Qiao Ning learned of Father Chai’s accident and quickly rushed over.
Only to hear what Chai Xiyang just said…
Qiao Ning stood there, frozen in shock!
Chai Xiyang saw her and was also stunned!
He knew that Qiao Ning had heard what he had said, and for some reason, Chai Xiyang’s mind went blank.
Seeing his reaction, a hint of resentment flickered in Lin Xinxin’s eyes, but she quickly put on a smile and said joyfully to Qiao Ning, “Qiao Ning, you’re here too. Uncle Chai is okay now. And did you hear? Your brother Chai and I are getting engaged…”
“Oh…” Qiao Ning nodded slightly and walked in, saying indifferently, “Congratulations to you both.”
Father Chai was also very happy and said with a smile to Qiao Ning, “Qiao Ning, your brother is getting married, but your uncle also wants to see you get married. When my health improves, I’ll introduce you to some good candidates…”
“Uncle, are you okay?” All Qiao Ning cared about was asking.
Father Chai sighed, “Almost died, but I’m fine now…”
“Uncle, as long as you’re okay!” Qiao Ning’s nose soured, and she suddenly felt like crying.
Father Chai smiled and comforted her, “Silly girl, don’t cry. Your uncle is fine…”
“Okay!” Qiao Ning nodded, but she still wanted to cry.
She didn’t know why, but she just felt like crying. But she held back her tears.
After waking up, Father Chai talked for a while and then got sleepy.
Qiao Ning was also thinking about leaving.
She coolly said to Chai Xiyang, “If anything happens to Uncle, please let me know. Thanks!”
After saying this, she turned around and left, not wanting to linger.
Chai Xiyang watched her retreating figure silently, then lowered his eyes to hide the sorrow in them.
Suddenly, he was hugged from behind by Lin Xinxin, and heard her gentle voice, “Brother Chai, I’m so happy that we’re finally getting married. You’re happy too, right?”
No, he inexplicably wasn’t.
There wasn’t a shred of happiness!
But, he should be happy!

Chai Xiyang turned around, and in Lin Xinxin’s hopeful eyes, he suddenly smiled and nodded, “Yes, I’m also happy…”
Naturally, his response brought an even brighter smile to Lin Xinxin’s face!
**************
After leaving the hospital, Qiao Ning immediately rushed back to the set.
But on the way back, she couldn’t help but cry.
In fact, she had nearly given up on Chai Xiyang, but for some reason, hearing him say in-person that he was getting engaged to Lin Xinxin, her heart still felt inexplicably bitter.
