Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

She continually searched along the road, finally spotting the two female passengers described by Brother Chen, nearby a flower bed.

One of them looked no older than forty, stunningly beautiful, clearly a well-off lady. The other was older, perhaps a housekeeper or similar.

Relieved to have found them, Ye Yining breathed a sigh of relief.

She parked up, wound down the window, and asked with a smile, “Excuse me, are you heading to Lu’s Hospital?”

Tang Wan and Mother Tang exchanged puzzled glances, their eyes brimming with confusion.

Seeing their caution, Ye Yining calmly explained, “The driver who was in a rush to get to the hospital to be there for his wife’s labor is a friend of mine. He asked me to pick you up.”

Seeing that the young girl didn’t look like a bad person, Tang Wan chose to believe her and thanked her with a gentle smile, “Yes, we are. Thank you for your troubles.”

Little did she know, that simple smile of hers almost had Ye Yining dropping her jaw in shock.

My god, this affluent lady looks so much like Little Pear!

Before, when her face was stern, Ye Yining only found her pretty, but never thought of drawing connections to Little Pear. But now that she smiled, her stunning grace was eerily identical to Pear’s…

Boom!

If she hadn’t heard that Little Pear’s mother had been gone for years, she would’ve questioned whether this opulent woman was Little Pear’s biological mother.

“Miss, are you okay?”

Seeing that Ye Yining was staring at her in a daze, Tang Wan gently called out to her.

Ye Yining quickly came back to reality, realizing she had been shamelessly gawking at a woman. She hurriedly coughed lightly twice to conceal her embarrassment, “Sorry about that, let me get out of the car and help you with your luggage.”

As she said this, she exited the vehicle.

“Thank you for your help.”

Tang Wan expressed her genuine gratitude.

Ye Yining responded with a hearty smile, “No trouble at all.”

In no time at all, she helped them load all their luggage into the trunk.

After getting into the car, Mother Tang remarked to Tang Wan, “Miss, it appears that the driver is quite responsible.”

Tang Wan sighed, “Indeed. A man with his wife in his heart can’t be all bad.”

Listening to their conversation, Ye Yining couldn’t help but interrupt, “Brother Chen is indeed a good man. He’s helped me quite a bit in the past.”

“By the way, miss, I didn’t catch your name?”

The more Tang Wan spoke with Ye Yining, the more she liked her. She found Yining’s appearance strangely familiar and couldn’t help being drawn to know her.

“My name is Ye Yining. Ye as in leaf, Yi as in one side of the water, Ning as in peaceful.”

“Yining, what a lovely name. Do you have a boyfriend?”

Tang Wan continued asking.

As she sat next to her, Mother Tang’s eyes darted around, wondering if her Miss was considering playing matchmaker for her son again.

It was no wonder, considering that Miss Tang would always try to introduce him to every intriguing woman they met.

Unfortunately, Tang Yue’s standards were sky-high, which left him with no takers.

Ye Yining hadn’t expected Tang Wan would bring up her love life. She stiffened momentarily and laughed awkwardly, pausing for a few seconds before replying, “Not at the moment. I don’t think it’s the right time for a relationship since my career hasn’t taken off yet.”

Upon hearing that Ye Yining didn’t have a boyfriend, Tang Wan’s eyes lit up, “Having a relationship and focusing on your career aren’t mutually exclusive. When you meet a boy you like, you should seize the opportunity.”

“Hehe, I will, don’t worry.”

Ye Yining responded casually.

She was already 25, no longer youthful, but she believed love should take its natural course.

However, being told twice in a day to get a boyfriend and by two people who bore an uncanny resemblance, it made her wonder about fate.

“Are you free later?”

Tang Wan suddenly asked, plotting to play matchmaker for Tang Yue.

“Huh?”

The conversation took an unexpected turn, throwing Ye Yining off track, “Yes. What’s up?”

“We have a lot of luggage. Could you help us carry it upstairs when we arrive?”

“Of course, not a problem at all.”

“Good, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

…

That’s how Tang Wan, single-handedly, managed to lure Ye Yining to Lu’s Hospital.

Upon reaching Tang Yue’s hospital room, Ye Yining said, “Auntie, I don’t want to disturb the patient, as I’m a stranger. I should take my leave now.”

Anticipating that Tang Wan had tricked Ye Yining into coming here in the hope she’d meet her son, Mother Tang tried to persuade her not to leave, “Miss Ye, the patient room is spacious, one more person won’t make it crowded. You and our young miss seem to get along well. Why not stay and help us bring the luggage to the hotel later?”

“Well…”

Ye Yining hesitated.

Tang Wan interrupted, smiling, “Mother Tang, if Yining has other things to do, we shouldn’t hold her up. Yining, don’t worry about it, we can manage. Just go if you’re busy, we will keep in touch.”
