Chapter 3

1930 Words
Lisz was lying on the bed in pain, turning over and over. For Liszt, seven years was really a blink of an eye. Li Si was really comfortable abroad. His studies and career were carried out smoothly, and his life was unconstrained and free. He was really happy and didn't want to leave Sichuan. Actually, it wasn't that he didn't want to go home at all. There was a reason why he didn't want to come back, and the reason why he was able to leave home at the beginning was that he had conditions. He was extremely reluctant to accept that condition, but for the school he had been longing for, he had to reluctantly agree. Because he had to fulfill his promise when he got home, of course, he would not be stupid enough to walk into the trap. So he could only keep it going for one day. But it wasn't a good idea to keep delaying this for a long time. Li Mu's father couldn't stand his delay. A few days ago, he finally gave Li Si an ultimatum and said harsh words. Although Li Si was unwilling, he had to come back. However, Liszt was not the kind of chess piece that was at the mercy of others, so he had been thinking about countermeasures. Although he didn't have any chance of winning against his father, it was not Li Si's style to await his doom. After the velvet left, mother Li went upstairs and knocked on Liszt's painful bedroom door. After knocking three times, she left. This was the custom of their family. Three times, they said that they would go to the study room. It was time for a family meeting. ###Chapter4,Family Meeting Liszt entered the study. As soon as he sat down, his father said seriously to him, "Today, you have completed your studies and it's time to fulfill your promise to get married. The wedding will be on the 6th of next month. This month, you and velvet prepare, and see what you need to buy." "Wait!" Liszt shouted in pain. "Dad, is there any room for negotiation?" The Li couple said in unison without hesitation, "No." Liszt objected reluctantly. "Mom and Dad, you're too stupid. How old are you now? What kind of babies do you have?" "What are you talking about!" Father Li said angrily, "Don't forget what you promised before you went abroad. Men must keep their promise!" "Dad, don't be so excited!" Liszt comforted his father in pain. "I didn't say no! But it depends on what velvet means. After so many years, she should have a boyfriend!" Upon hearing this, Li's father's blue veins bulged. "What are you talking about? velvet likes you since you were a child. She has been waiting for you for so many years. You should know better than anyone else what she wants!" "Another damn i***t!" Liszt muttered in annoyance. "What's so good about me! It's all your fault! Why are you guys so single?" For the so-called baby bride, Li Si did not admit it since he was a child, because he had been longing to marry the most perfect woman in the world as a bride since childhood. Li Si's words were, "My future bride must be the most beautiful and best woman in the world, not like you!" Therefore, velvet was not his cup of tea. If he hadn't been in a hurry to go abroad seven years ago, he wouldn't have promised him in a perfunctory way at that time. But now, he couldn't take it off! Listening to his son's words, mother Li couldn't stand it and said, "You know, it's not just the so-called baby kissing!" Hearing this, the three of them all fell silent. As for the marriage between the Li and Ge families, it was just a joke between two women. The mother's surname of the velvet mother was Fang, and the Li and Fang families were not only neighbors, but also family friends. In fact, their relationship was not as simple as it seemed. Li Mu's father and his mother, Fang Tian, were childhood sweethearts. Li Mu's mother and Fang Tian were university classmates, and both Fang Tian and Li Mu's mother were each other's matchmakers. Thus, the relationship between the two families was naturally unusual. When they were in college, two women had joked. If the two families had children, the boy and the girl would be betrothed to each other. In fact, whether it was two women or two men, they didn't take it seriously. The wedding was held together, but since Mother Li had just gotten married, the news of the wedding had already arrived. Fang Tian had been anxious for quite a while. Fortunately, four years later, the Ge Family had finally received a thousand pieces of gold. When it was time for their 100-day birthday party, the two women brought up the old things again, so they stopped talking and laughing. However, what the doll said was naturally the joke of two women, and men did not take it seriously. When it came to real, there was only Gelu. If it had not happened, the baby's wedding would have gone away with the passage of time. However, that thing really happened. That thing made the two men admit the child's marriage. When he was six years old, Lisz was ten years old. The incident had changed the lives of the two children. That year, that month, that day, the Li family solemnly promised the Ge family that in the future, Li Si would definitely marry Gelu. Thinking back to the past, Li Si let out a deep sigh of relief. He knew that he owed a lot, but he couldn't use his marriage as compensation! He wanted to struggle! He wanted to resist! He didn't want to do this! Liszt was in pain, trying to break through this strange silent state. He defended himself, "But velvet is clearly fine now..." He didn't have much confidence in his words. Li Mu's father shouted in a stern manner, "What did you say? Be loud!" When he heard his father's harsh tone, Li Si's heart ached. He retorted, "Mom and Dad, be honest, I don't like velvet at all. I've always thought of her as my younger sister since I was young. Do you think it's appropriate for me to marry my younger sister?" Li Mu's father realized that his attitude made his son set up a protective wall, and his tone immediately softened. "There's nothing inappropriate or inappropriate. She is not your biological sister. Besides, four years ago, your father and mother lost their velvet accidentally, and they took the velvet to our house as soon as possible. It has always been your and your mother's wish." "Gentleman's father and mother passed away?" Lisz said in great pain, his face full of disbelief. Seeing that he was so angry, Li Mu's father said, "You bastard, you forgot everything after seven years outside. You didn't answer my letters or call me. Do you know anything? If it weren't for my advice, you would have been called back a long time ago!" Liszt asked in pain. "What happened? Wasn't the body of the funk parents always very good?" Mother Li shook her head and sighed. "The weather is unpredictable. The flannel family went out to play, and had a car accident. If they hadn't held the flannel tightly, I'm afraid they would have died there." "How could it be..." Lisz was stunned and didn't know how to react. Mother Li fell into her memories. "They saved velvet with their lives. Before dying, Fang Tian grabbed our hands and told us to take good care of the velvet." Thinking of the scene at that time, Li Mu's mother cried sadly. Li Mu's father scolded Li Si with anger. "You bastard, you have been outside for so many years. What happened at home, you don't care at all! Do you know how much you cried when the velvet lost her parents? Do you know how long she stayed in the hospital? When she needed you most, you didn't know where she was playing. Now you are finally back, but talk nonsense like this. Do you think you can treat her like a velvet?" "I don't know, I really don't know..." Liszt murmured in pain, "I really don't know anything..." Li Mu's father sighed and said earnestly, "Now velvet has no more relatives. We are her only concern in the world. You can't let her down!" Mother Li said sadly, "That child has always been stubborn since he was a child. If you don't marry her, she will definitely not accept our help. At that time, she will be alone. How can we face her parents!" Liszt felt guilty in his heart. In the past seven years when he was abroad, he really didn't care about what he said. He frowned. When he thought about how he faced the death of his parents and curled up in the hospital alone, his heart ached. How did the girl, who had been loved by thousands of people since childhood, lead a life without anyone's care and love? She must have lived a hard life in the past few years! However, he knew nothing about it. It should not be like this. He murmured, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Father Li sighed. "It's velvet that won't let us talk about it. She said that the matter has already happened, and it's no use telling you. I'd better not tell you this, or you'll worry about it and delay your studies. Because velvet always takes your interests as the priority and cares about everything for you. Such a good woman, if it weren't for you, she wouldn't be your turn to mess with you!" Liszt was silent for a while, then he compromised. "I know, I can marry her. However, I can't get used to it in a short time. Next month's marriage is too hasty, let's change it to an engagement." Seeing his son compromise, Li Mu's father said in a sonorous tone, "That's it." ###Chapter5,Promise Lisz went back to his bedroom in pain and lay on the bed powerlessly. He stared at the ceiling in a daze, and his mind was in a mess. He remembered the day he went abroad seven years ago. That day, the weather was good and the sky was clear, just like his mood. As soon as he went out, he saw velvet waiting for him at his door. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to tell the time when he went out and warn the family not to talk with him, but he still stood there. She had to use her knees to know that the girl was definitely standing there until dawn. Although the velvet looked pitiful, he still didn't want to talk to her. Although he had made up his mind not to talk to her, she stared at him tearfully and tugged at his arm pitifully. "Are you sure you want to go, Brother?" "Of course. This is without question." He easily broke free from her restraint. Now, he would never be bound by her again. Persephone resisted the tears coming out of her eyes. She knew that she loved her brother so much that she could be admitted to a foreign famous university. However, she really didn't want to be separated from him. He was going abroad for four years! So far, so far! So long, so long! The velvet asked with her bright eyes full of expectation, "Will Brother Xing come back during the holidays?" "We'll talk about it later!" He replied perfunctorily. "You must come back! I will wait for you here!" The velvet voice was full of expectation. "Alright, I'm leaving!" Lisz couldn't bear the pain and waved his hand to bid farewell. "Wait!" The velvet grabbed Lisz in pain and ripped off one of the buttons on Lisz's chest.
