Secret Marriage: Wife Spoiling Husband Chapter 251 – I am single and I am happy

Inside the restaurant, Zhu Qian sat next to Li Xiaolu while Lin Mochen sat in front of the. He licked his lips seeing all the delicious food in front of him. He didn’t forget to order seafood, his and Li Xiaolu’s favorite food. All kinds of delicacies we’re placed in front of him and Lin Mochen couldn’t wait to dig in and satisfy his stomach. 

“Xiaolu today I want you to meet a very special person in Mochen’s life. Meet my daughter-in-law…” Zhu Qian smiled as she pointed to the food that was kept on the table.

Lin Mochen who was just about to dig in “….”

Li Xiaolu: “…?”

“Mom!” Lin Mochen pouted as he was embarrassed.

“What?” Zhu Qian asked innocently, “Did I say something wrong? Weren’t you the one who told me that you were married to your food and you are loyal to it.” 

“But I didn’t mean in it that way…” Lin Mochen explained quickly with an embarrassed look. Seeing that Li Xiaolu was trying to hold her laughter, his ears turned red. Why did his mother bring it up in front of Li Xiaolu? So embarrassing!

“What do you mean?” Zhu Qian gasped, “Are you telling me that you are thinking about cheating on your beloved food?” 

“You know our Lin family don’t tolerate men like these. You can only be a loyal, sincere and upright man to the person you love. You can not even think about cheating.” Zhu Qian reprimanded.

“What are you talking about mom?” 

Seeing Lin Mochen’s blushing face, Li Xiaolu couldn’t hold it in and she burst out laughing. He just looked so cute.

“Xiaolu don’t you dare laugh at me!” Lin Mochen warned. Then looking at his mother he said, “In my defense, I only said that because of mom, you were forcing me to get married.” 

“Xiaolu you tell me, isn’t it the right age for him to get married.” Zhu Qian asked.

Li Xiaolu nodded, “Auntie is correct, Mochen. You should get married.” 

Throwing his hands up in the air, Lin Mochen sighed. “Oh! C’mon, not you too. Why would you want a happy bachelor like me to fall into the prison called marriage? I am single and I am happy.”

“Marriage is not a prison.” Li Xiaolu chuckled.

“You say that because you have not seen my dad. He is literally a slave in the hand of my mother.” Lin Mochen joked but he was immediately met with his mother’s glare. Scratching his neck awkwardly he laughed, “Anyway I am not going to get married ” 

“See, Xiaolu this is what I suffer through. All I wanted was to see all my sons getting married. But looks like I don’t have that in my destiny. All of my sons are useless.” Zhu Qian said dramatically.

“Oh! My over-melodramatic mom, please stop this.” Lin Mochen pleaded, “Just because we are not getting, doesn’t make us useless. Xiaolu you tell her something…”

“What would she tell me, huh? She herself is in a relationship with such a wonderful guy and just look at you, sitting and eating all day. And what’s wrong with me wanting you all to get married? Am I wrong in thinking about holding my cute little grandchildren in my age? Xiaolu do you I am wrong?” 

Li Xiaolu shook her head. “Of course not Auntie. You are correct. Lin Mochen, I think you should listen to your mother and get married quickly.” 

“In fact, I think it’s time you should tell the truth to your mother.” Li Xiaolu continued with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

“What truth?” Zhu Qian asked excitedly. 

“What truth?” Lin Mochen asked at the same time but on seeing the mischievous twinkle in Li Xiaolu’s eyes he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. 

“About that… That, umm…your boyfriend..” Li Xiaolu smiled.

“My, my what?” Lin Mochen asked in horror.

“Mochen, you have a boyfriend!” Zhu Qian exclaimed excitedly. “That’s so great. Don’t worry son, you have my support. Be it a girl or a guy, I am fine as long as you have someone in your life.” 

Lin Mochen: “….”

“Aren’t I a cool mother?” Zhu Qian asked.

Li Xiaolu nodded enjoying the look of horror on Lin Mochen’s face. She was really enjoying this lunch with Zhu Qian and Lin Mochen. This was like being a part of a family. Li Xiaolu wondered what it would be like to be in a family like this and pull your sibling’s legs. She wondered she had a sibling or not. Being with them made her realize what she was missing this whole time.

“Mom, she’s joking. I am not gay. I am perfectly straight and I do not have a boyfriend.” Lin Mochen informed. Glaring at Li Xiaolu who was laughing he warned, “Xiaolu, tell her that.” 

“I don’t want to lie to your mother, Mochen. It’s fine. There’s nothing to be ashamed in that.” Li Xiaolu chuckled.

“Yes, she’s right. Mochen. No matter who or what it is, I am very supportive of you.” Zhu Qian laughed. She knew that Li Xiaolu was just pulling her son’s leg so she joined on in the fun. 

“Xiaolu!” 

Li Xiaolu laughed when she was Lin Mochen shooting daggers at her with his eyes. Raising her hands up in surrender she smiled, “Fine. Don’t look at me like you want to kill me.” 

“Auntie I was just kidding. Lin Mochen is perfectly alright and he doesn’t have any boyfriends.” 

“That’s better…” Lin Mochen sighed in relief.

Seeing Li Xiaolu smiling and laughing with then, Zhu Qian had this weird happiness inside her heart. She felt as if she was with her own daughter. She wished that her daughter, wherever she was would be just like Li Xiaolu.

“I wish I had a daughter just like you…” Zhu Qian sighed while looking at Li Xiaolu.
