3711. Chapter 3711 Side Story: Discussing Marriage 4

"Afang, where are you?" I said weakly.

"I'm at work, where could I be?" Afang said.

"I'll go to your shop!" Afang's shop is one she opened herself, a small boutique with steady income, and she's doing pretty well.

Of course, A Du also has his own income!

Although their combined income isn't much, just ordinary, yet they look very happy.

"Sure, come over! I'll treat you to a drink—it's so hot today, why do you sound so listless?" Afang said with a smile.

"Okay, I'm heading to your shop right now!" After saying that, I took a taxi to Afang's shop, and Afang took me to a nearby place to get something to drink.

"What's wrong? You look worried with your furrowed brows—what's going on?" Afang asked, looking at me with concern.

"Ah... Shangguan Yun is trying to force me to get married, and as a result, the whole family has taken his side... and he's just gotten angry and ignored me." I said weakly.

"Getting married? That's a good thing." Afang didn't think much of it.

"But I just graduated! I don't want to get married so early, and we're still young—I was planning to find a job, then date, marry, have a baby—that's my life plan; how could it just be ruined like this?" I said dissatisfied.

"You... really! What's the difference whether you marry Shangguan Yun now or not?" Afang seemed to also agree that I should marry Shangguan Yun.

"Then why don't you and A Du get married?" I said disparagingly.

"We don't have great finances, and we still want to buy a house; we've grown up and should be responsible." Afang gave a wry smile.

"You mean, after you buy a house, you'll get married?" I asked Afang curiously.

Afang nodded: "Yeah, that's right—after we buy a house we'll get married."

"This is our goal—don't take your blessings for granted. Look, A Yun hasn't even graduated yet, but he's already got everything set up for you two; I guess he's been working hard in school with the goal of marrying right after graduation, then kept striving, and now that he's graduated, he has a career and a house—if you say you won't marry him, he's naturally unhappy." Afang's analysis was spot on.

But Shangguan Yun's doing this is too presumptuous, isn't it?

"But..." I still didn't want to get married so early.

Why should I accommodate him, but he can't accommodate me?

I'm definitely unhappy!

"Alright! Think about it properly!" Afang looked at me with an envious expression and asked.

"How are you two doing now? Are you all right? How's the house situation? When are you planning to buy?" I asked concernedly.

"Ah, our income is low, and besides, house prices are so high now—over ten thousand per square meter randomly—who can afford that?" Afang looked gloomy.

"If you want to buy but lack the down payment, you could ask Shangguan Yun for a loan—he'd probably lend it! He makes quite a bit." I said somewhat proudly.

At least, following Shangguan Yun, you wouldn't have to worry about the house—actually that's pretty good too.

"Mm, don't worry—if you run into trouble, I'll definitely ask you for help!" Afang said with a smile.
