"They still can't accept a guy I meet online," she thought anxiously.

When Zheng Xiaoguang was about to explain, Bluegreen-Clad stood up and said, "Uncle, I knew that you and aunt would feel displeased upon knowing this, but I still chose to tell you the truth, because I want to be honest with you. I don't want to lie to you and lose your trust."

"Is he trying to address this issue head-on?" wondered Zheng Xiaoguang.

Zheng Xiaoguang's father refused to back down. "Mr. Lu is an honest man, so I think I should be honest with you too. I have to tell you that my family won't accept you."

Although his daughter's relations.h.i.+p with Su Han had ended a few years ago, he still felt hurt and refused to believe any guy that his daughter met in online games.

Zheng Xiaoguang closed her eyes and decided to talk this issue through with her family. After all it was she that picked the wrong guy. She had to face this problem sooner or later

She walked up to Bluegreen-Clad and took his hand. "Dad, mom, I know that you don't want me to start a relations.h.i.+p with a guy I meet online since you're afraid that I'll get swindled and hurt. You always blame Su Han for this, so do I. When I broke up with him, I hated him. I hated him for hurting me and you."

As her parents remained silent, she continued, "But think about it. I should take part of the blame. You warned me, but I still chose to believe him and even got obsessed with him. During the past year, I dared not love any guy since I was afraid of getting hurt again. I doubted my own judgement."

What she said was the truth. Her mother could not help but feel sad upon hearing that.

Zheng Xiaoguang smiled and added, "Just as mom said, I should not dread the fire after being burnt once. I followed her advice and went on blind dates, but I failed to find any guy I like. You told me that a girl my age should not be so picky, so I tried again to contact those guys. However, I failed again."

Her mother looked at her with pitiful eyes and did not know what she was trying to do.

Zheng Xiaoguang's eye rims became red as she said, "I really don't know if this is my problem. Maybe I just don't look attractive enough on this blind dating market. You probably don't know. I've been feeling inferior all this time."

Su Han's betrayal together with her parents' urging and those failed blind dates made her feel inferior. She pretended to be calm just to cover up her fears.

Upon hearing her words, her father was surprised and tightly knitted his eyebrows. In the past, he had believed that Zheng Xiaoguang never took those blind dates seriously and thus kept urging her. He had never expected to make her feel this way.

He wanted to say something but got stuck for words. He came to realize that he had been urging her to find a husband and never had a heart-to-heart talk with her all this year.

Zheng Xiaoguang's mother stood up and wanted to comfort her.

Zheng Xiaoguang shook her head and said, "I'm alright now, mom. I've gotten over him. It's really lucky for me to meet Mingxuan."

At this moment, she could feel that Bluegreen-Clad was tightly holding her hand. She tightly held his hand too. She turned to look at him with a smile and said, "If it was not for him, I would follow your advice and marry a guy who treats me well. But I met him. He treats me sincerely and helps me get over my past. He makes me want to strive for my love again. Given all this, I choose him..."

Sometimes she would still doubt her own judgment, but she was willing to trust Bluegreen-Clad.

Bluegreen-Clad smiled back at Zheng Xiaoguang and said, "Xiaoguang told me everything about Su Han, so I understand why you dislike me. I can guarantee that I'll never let Xiaoguang down."

"I really want to trust you, young man, but marriage involves more than just you two. It's not a simple thing," said Zheng Xiaoguang's mother.

"My family allows me to choose my own wife," Bluegreen-Clad replied seriously. "Auntie, I know that you may not want to believe me, not just because of Su Han. There are really too many scammers on the Internet. I've brought here all the doc.u.ments to prove myself."

With these words, he took out all the doc.u.ments he had prepared and put them on the table.

They were his ID card, his property owners.h.i.+p certificate and even his company's business license.

Zheng Xiaoguang was stunned. Bluegreen-Clad had told her that he had prepared everything, but she had never expected him to be so well-prepared.

Zheng Xiaoguang's mother was stunned too. She could tell at a glance that these doc.u.ments were real as she had a property owners.h.i.+p certificate too.

Bluegreen-Clad said, "I don't know whether this is enough to prove my sincerity to you, but they're my most important things. I brought them here just want to prove that I sincerely want to marry Xiaoguang."

"Do you have any plans for your future?" Zheng Xiaoguang's father sounded much nicer than a moment ago, although he did not give a definite answer.

Bluegreen-Clad solemnly replied, "Of course I have plans. I come here in the hope of getting your consent. I want to bring Xiaoguang back home to meet my parents. If you don't trust me, I'll leave all these doc.u.ments here. In my heart, she's more important than these things."

Upon hearing that, Zheng Xiaoguang's father coughed embarra.s.sedly.

Zheng Xiaoguang's mother hurriedly said, "That's fine. Sit down. Don't stand up all the time."

Upon hearing that, Bluegreen-Clad, Zheng Xiaoguang and her father finally stopped their confrontation and sat down.

"I hope that you can understand, young man. We have just one daughter. We can't help but worry about her." Zheng Xiaoguang's mother sighed. "That thing hurt Xiaoguang and us. That was why we were so nervous just now. I'm sorry to have given you such a hard time. I hope that you won't mind."

Bluegreen-Clad nodded and said, "That's alright. I can understand. I hope that you can give me a chance to prove that I can take care of Xiaoguang all my life."

Zheng Xiaoguang grabbed her mother's hand and said, "Mom, I really love him. I want to be together with him."

Her mother looked at her and suddenly felt somewhat sad. She thought,"Xiaoguang has remained single since breaking up with Su Han. Now she finally finds someone she loves. I can't let her down again."

She looked at Zheng Xiaoguang's father with inquiring eyes and asked, "What do you say?"

Upon seeing his daughter's expecting eyes, he gradually calmed down. He looked at the tall and handsome man and said, "I give you only three days. If your parents disapprove of your relations.h.i.+p. Xiaoguang must come home immediately, and you should not come to visit us again!"

Her parents never meant to give a hard time to any guy. They just wanted to make sure that their daughter would be happy. They sincerely hoped that she would be happy this time.
