Words : 2159 Updated : Dec 3rd, 2024
It was indeed a family dinner of a blind date. Although some senior executives and engineers from Dongfang Heavy Industry were present, they were all arranged far away by Asher Gellar. He arranged a private room here, and it was only him and Leonel Gellar, and Lola Gellar. My mother Gracelynn, plus Edgar Austin and Lola Gellar, there are only five of them at a large round table, so it is not a waste. Edgar Austin met Leonel Gellar and Gracelynn for the first time. Leonel Gellar and Asher Gellar look very similar, and they are both in their fifties. Gracelynn looks relatively young. She looks to be in her early forties at most, and does not look old at all. She is very similar to Lola Gellar. Although she is a little older, she is definitely an older beauty. She is the type who needs a good face, a good figure, and a good temperament. "I didn't expect Miss Lola's mother to be so young. Miss Lola would probably look like this when she reaches her mother's age, right?" A strange thought came to Edgar Austin's mind. "Mom, Dad, Second Uncle, Edgar Austin is here."Lola Gellar said. In fact, without any introduction from Lola Gellar, from the moment Edgar Austin entered the elegant room, Leonel Gellar and Gracelynn's eyes fell on Edgar Austin, looking from his head to his feet, and then from his feet to his head. Just from the small detail of Lola Gellar holding Edgar Austin's hand, they guessed Edgar Austin's identity. Being stared at by Lola Gellar's parents like a criminal, Edgar Austin suddenly became nervous and froze there, not knowing what to do next. Lola Gellar touched Edgar Austin's waist with her elbow and urged in a low voice: "Why are you still dazed? Come on." Only then did Edgar Austin come back to his senses, and he hurriedly walked up, "Hello, uncle and aunt, hello, uncle. I'm sorry, I'm a little late. I kept you waiting for a long time." Leonel Gellar said: "Young people, the concept of time is very important." Gracelynn also said: "Yes, you were late for the first meeting." Edgar Austin wanted to explain, but couldn't. He was very embarrassed. He expected that this matter would not be easy and would be difficult, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult. Lola Gellar's parents set difficulties for him from the beginning. Lola Gellar helped: "Edgar was also late because he was busy buying gifts for you, so don't say anything." Edgar Austin then handed the gift over, "Uncle, aunt, it's so small, please accept it." Leonel Gellar took a look at the gift, but Gracelynn put it down on the table without even looking at it. The two couples seemed to have agreed early on not to give Edgar Austin a good look, and wanted to use this method to test Edgar Austin's temper. Edgar Austin sighed in his heart, "Hurry up and eat, and then leave this place. From now on, even if Miss Lola puts a knife on my neck, I will not accompany her in such a scene." At this time, Asher Gellar walked to the door of the private room and said as he walked: "You guys chat first, I will go to the kitchen to urge the food to be served. Really, the food is not being served at this time, the speed is too slow." Edgar Austin glanced at the door of the private room and thought, "Does a five-star hotel have this kind of problem? Don't lie to me. You guys told the kitchen early in the morning to delay the serving of food, right?" Leonel Gellar looked at Edgar Austin with friendly eyes. It was not difficult to see that he was very satisfied with Edgar Austin's sunny and handsome image. "Hmm, cough."Gracelynn coughed inexplicably, and then said, "Edgar Austin, when did you and my Lola meet?" Lola Gellar said: "We met in a bookstore half a year ago. I love reading, and he also loves reading." "Shut up, I didn't ask you."Gracelynn glared at Lola Gellar. Lola Gellar also closed her mouth. She seemed to be afraid of Gracelynn, and Gracelynn seemed to be the one in charge of their family. Edgar Austin said bravely: "Well, yes, we met half a year ago in a bookstore." "Which bookstore?" Edgar Austin thought for a moment, "Xinhua, Xinhua Bookstore." "It's been half a year. You've been together for half a year and you've hidden it from us."Gracelynn looked a little angry, "Edgar Austin, do you think we two elders don't exist, or do you just want to have fun with our Lola? If you do this, This is not the sign of a responsible man.” Edgar Austin's scalp had already started to feel numb. He said bravely, "I'm sorry, Auntie, I definitely didn't have that idea. I..." Gracelynn interrupted Edgar Austin, "How old are you this year?" "twenty five." "Where are the parents?" "My mother passed away a long time ago, and my father... is no longer here either. Only my sister and I are left at home. My sister has been admitted to Kyoto University and will go to school in a few days."Edgar Austin simply told all these situations. , lest Gracelynn continue to ask. 1 An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Gracelynn's mouth. She and Leonel Gellar looked at each other and exchanged glances. It is not difficult to see that she is very satisfied with Edgar Austin's age, appearance, temperament, and family members. 1 "Where's the second uncle? Why hasn't he come back yet? Why haven't you served dinner yet?"Lola Gellar urged, "I'm already hungry." "No rules."Gracelynn glared at Lola Gellar again. Lola Gellar then closed her mouth again. Gracelynn's eyes fell on Edgar Austin again, as if she wanted to see through his heart, "Edgar Austin, do you have a room?" Edgar Austin said with some embarrassment: "Yes, it was left by my parents, but it is very small, only seventy-five square meters." Gracelynn said: "It is indeed too small. If we, Lola, get married, how can such a small house accommodate you two and your sister? When you take care of children in the future, it will be even more crowded. You have to work hard to make money. , to buy a big house, at least 150 square meters." Edgar Austin, "..." "Where's the car? Have you bought a car now?" Edgar Austin shook his head, "No." "That won't work either. You have to buy at least a car worth about 500,000 yuan, preferably a seven-seater city SUV. From now on, our whole family can sit down when we go out." Edgar Austin, "I don't have the funds to buy a breeding car yet..." Before Edgar Austin finished speaking, Lola Gellar secretly stepped on his instep. Edgar Austin then closed his mouth, feeling very embarrassed. The little actions of the two people could not escape Gracelynn's eyes, and her eyebrows suddenly frowned, "By the way, Edgar Austin, what is your education level?" Edgar Austin didn't think twice and replied casually: "High school." "High school?"Gracelynn's brows furrowed even further, "Why are you just a high school student?" Leonel Gellar also frowned. He was obviously not satisfied with Edgar Austin's academic qualifications. Gracelynn's tone and Leonel Gellar's eyes made Edgar Austin feel a little uncomfortable, but when he thought that he was cooperating with Lola Gellar in acting, he tolerated it and maintained the respect he deserved for his elders on his face, "Auntie, I too I want to go to college, but if I go to college, no one will take care of my sister. But I don’t regret it.” Gracelynn and Leonel Gellar looked at each other, and they seemed a little hesitant. The old couple were quite satisfied with Edgar Austin's other conditions, but they were not satisfied with his academic qualifications. "Our Lola is a doctoral student. There are huge cultural differences between you two. You can get along now, but getting married and living a life is a lifelong matter. Are you sure you can adapt to this cultural difference?"Gracelynn looked at Edgar Austin. His eyes no longer had the intimacy they had just now. Edgar Austin didn't know how to answer this question, because he had never thought about living with Lola Gellar. Gracelynn added: "And your children, from a genetic point of view, our Lola's genes are the best genes, and yours..." "Mom, what are you talking about?"Lola Gellar blushed and became unhappy. Edgar Austin came to help her, but she didn't expect that her mother would make things difficult for Edgar Austin. Just when Asher Gellar was very embarrassed, he walked in. He chuckled and said, "The food will be served soon." Leonel Gellar got up and pulled Asher Gellar to a corner of the private room to talk. Gracelynn also got up and walked over and pulled Lola Gellar to another corner to talk. The four Ning family members murmured, obviously discussing Edgar Austin. Edgar Austin sat there, looking very lonely. He is like a contestant on a talent show. After performing, he is waiting for several judges to rate him, advance, or be eliminated. 1 A wry smile appeared on the corner of Edgar Austin's mouth, "This world is really real. Fortunately, I am not really in love with Lola Gellar. If I become her mother's son-in-law, I will be driven crazy sooner or later." The four Ning family members continued to murmur. Here, Leonel Gellar said to Asher Gellar: "Asher, this can't happen. Edgar Austin is just a high school student, and he is very different from our Lola. Children born in the future will not have AA genes, but AB genes." Asher Gellar said: "Brother, are you confused? What does academic qualifications mean? I have a large number of college students, research labs, etc. Some of them are warehouse keepers and some are copywriters. They don't even have Edgar Austin's Not even a toe can compare to it. Do you know that Edgar Austin’s craftsmanship can’t be found in many people in the country?” "Isn't it just welding and lathe processing? It sounds so mysterious."Leonel Gellar obviously didn't agree with Asher Gellar's point of view. Asher Gellar sighed, "Hey, it's up to you. If Lola were my biological child, I would definitely support her and Edgar Austin being together with both hands." "I'm actually not very opposed to it, it's just that Lola doesn't agree with it, and there's nothing I can do about it,"Leonel Gellar said. Over there, Gracelynn whispered in Lola Gellar's ear: "Daughter, how far have you developed?" Lola Gellar's face blushed slightly, "Mom, why do you ask this?" "If mom asks you, just say it."Gracelynn said tentatively: "Have you guys gone to bed?" Lola Gellar's face turned even redder, "We haven't reached that point yet. We just hold hands and sometimes... kiss on the lips or something." "You really didn't go to bed?" "Really not!" "It's fine if I don't have one. I'll be relieved if I don't have a mother."Gracelynn breathed a sigh of relief. Lola Gellar glanced at Edgar Austin secretly. She didn't know why, but there was a hint of disappointment in her eyes at the moment. Gracelynn whispered into Lola Gellar's ear and said: "Daughter, actually, mom is not against your free love. If this Edgar Austin is very good, your dad and I will be happy to accept him. But, he is only a high school student. , how can a high school student be with a doctoral student?" "If you don't like it, forget it."Lola Gellar said. It’s fake anyway, so it’s okay to end this way. "Do you remember the little boy you played with when you were a child?" "Who is it?" "Your Ms Adalynn's son, Stephen Price, came back from the Stars and Stripes Country, where he got a doctorate in business management. As soon as he returned to China, he was hired by the Vientiane Group as the project manager of the wind energy power generation project, and he will also become this person in the future. Project leader.” "What does this have to do with me?" "Of course it does matter. That boy Stephen has liked you since he was a child. How can I, a mother, not tell it? I met him today and when he heard that you were coming, he said that he would also come to talk to your second uncle. Talk about the wind energy power generation project. I know that he actually wants to meet you." At this point, Gracelynn looked at the watch on her hand and said, "It should be here by now, right?" "Isn't this bad?"Lola Gellar suddenly regretted asking Edgar Austin to do this for her. She felt that it would hurt Edgar Austin. Gracelynn glared at Lola Gellar, "What's wrong? You and Wen Qiang have been playing together since childhood. You can be considered a pair of childhood sweethearts. If you get along well, haha, then it will be a match made in heaven. , please be nice to others later, remember?" Lola Gellar bit her lower lip. She didn't expect things to change like this. She wanted to leave here with Edgar Austin. At this moment, a young man in a suit and leather shoes appeared at the door of the private room.
