Chapter 1412: He Wanted To Marry Xixi
Jiang Cheng made a deep bow to his future mother-in-law, with self-reproach and apology written largely and clearly on his handsome face.
He Xiyan’s brow became even tighter. “You…”, she had intended to say something, but was interrupted by the boy’s action at this moment.
Jiang Cheng smiled apologetically, and his voice was much lower, as if he was deeply remorseful.
“I’m sorry, auntie.”
The “sorry” was full of apologies, making He Xiyan hold back with great efforts what she intended to say.
“Don’t say sorry to me, Jiang Cheng.” She sighed, a little annoyed.
He was sorry for Xixi, not her. But this time she was really disappointed in the guy. She used to think that he was very composed and responsible.
“Why didn’t you do well with contraceptives?” He Xiyan could not help asking, her tone mixed with a faint anger.
When Jiang Cheng heard this question, his eyebrows suddenly tightened into a straight line, and he blinked his beautiful peach blossom eyes several times.
He pressed his lips tightly, appearing unnatural, as if he didn’t know how to answer for a while.
But soon he said.
“Auntie, I was too careless. You can rest assure that I will definitely be responsible for Xixi.”
Jiang Cheng said so earnestly. He could not answer some questions, so he bypassed them directly. But he quickly showed his own attitude.
“Responsible?”
He Xiyan looked at Jiang Cheng with her eyebrows lifted, as if she wanted to see through his mind at the moment.
“How are you going to be responsible?” She raised her pitch.
At this time, it seemed that she couldn’t understand Jiang Cheng even more. The more polite he was, the more incomprehensible he was.
With the corners of his mouth lifted, Jiang Cheng smiled awkwardly.

He took a deep breath, paused, and replied, “I want to marry Xixi.”
(He Xiyan)…
He Xiyan’s look suddenly froze. The cup in her hand that nearly slipped off.
As if hit by something, her mind was buzzing.
With no response from He Xiyan, Jiang Cheng then continued, “Aunt, don’t worry. I will take good care of Xixi and our child, and I will try my best to give them happiness.”
A promise was uttered directly like this, which sounded very sincere and earnest with nothing wrong.
He Xiyan was a bit confused, and her facial expression changed rapidly.
She didn’t know why. Hearing Jiang Cheng say so, she didn’t feel happy or angry. Instead, she was anxious beyond words.
Normally, seeing Jiang Cheng so sincere, she should let go of her guard and agree to let her daughter be with him with assurance. However, she was still quite worried.
He Xiyan stood up. Something, she found it unsuitable to speak out, and she also needed further consideration.
“Take a rest here first.” She said.
After coming out, He Xiyan called Ye Hao again, and repeated what Jiang Cheng just said to her husband.
She couldn’t make up her mind about it alone.
After hanging up the phone, He Xiyan went back to the living room. At this time, Xixi also came in. She sat next to Jiang Cheng. Both of them talked and laughed, as if not afraid at all.
Xixi even laughed out loud. She did not know what Jiang Cheng said to her to make her so happy.
She went and sat beside her daughter, eyes fixed on Jiang Cheng.
“In the evening, Xixi’s father will come back and he will talk to you.”
