My sweet little girl

Chapter 127: Child Marriage

The two of them began to receive love letters and gifts frequently, and were often confessed to.

Chu Zhiyan had a cold and arrogant personality. He often directly rejected gifts and confessions. He would throw the love letters stuffed into his desk into the trash can without even reading them.

Gradually, the girls no longer dared to confess their love to him. They could only keep their love for him in their hearts, admire him from afar, and dared not get close to him.

Qian Youyou is much more tactful than Chu Zhiyan. She will politely tell the person she confesses to that she only cares about school and doesn't want to fall in love.

As for those love letters, she did not throw them away, but took them home and found a place to put them. After all, these were the other person's thoughtful words, and it would be too hurtful to just throw them away.

Occasionally, on weekends, she would open the books with her new friends to see which one was better written and which one was copied.

As for the gifts, she didn’t know who gave them to her, so she would share them with her classmates.

Chu Zhiyan was very dissatisfied with Qian Youyou's behavior. He told her not to accept love letters from others, not to accept gifts, and not to pay attention to boys who confessed their love to her.

Qian Youyou patiently explained the reasons to him, telling him that he should be tactful in dealing with people, otherwise he would have no friends and would have bad popularity.

Also, after class, the girls would go to the bathroom hand in hand. She didn’t want to be alone, it would be lonely.

Chu Zhiyan still said the same thing: "I don't need friends, you are enough for me."

Then he didn't allow Qian Youyou to play with his new friends, and complained that Qian Youyou was playing with others and ignoring him.

This time Qian Youyou learned her lesson. She was unhappy at first, but she ignored Chu Zhiyan for several days. Even when the adults came to persuade her, she just cried, and finally Chu Zhiyan compromised.

He allowed her to have friends, but she could not ignore him because of her friends. She had to tell him first when she wanted to play with her friends.

However, within a few days, rumors spread in the school that Qian Youyou was Chu Zhiyan's fiancée and they were going to get married in the future.

Everyone had always thought that they were siblings. After hearing the news, they were surprised for a long time, and then they realized why the two of them did not accept other people's confessions.

Then a series of chain reactions were triggered on campus. Girls often cried in class, and several boys learned to drink.

For this reason, the school should specifically emphasize during the flag-raising ceremony on Mondays that students’ learning task is to study, and that premature love is not allowed. The school should let everyone concentrate and focus on studying.

Qian Youyou was very angry. Who on earth spread this rumor? Although everyone had said this since she was a child, she just thought it was a joke and never took it seriously.

She only treats Chu Zhiyan as a younger brother.

One day, Qian Youyou’s desk mate told her mysteriously that it was Chu Zhiyan himself who spread the news.

Usually, Chu Zhiyan would secretly throw away the love letters and gifts that were stuffed into Qian Youyou's desk. If a boy wanted to confess his love to Qian Youyou and asked him to help pass on a message, Chu Zhiyan would directly take the boy to the back of the teaching building and say, "Qian Youyou is my fiancée, and we will get married in the future. She only likes me, so tell the others not to have any delusions."

Qian Youyou couldn't believe that Chu Zhiyan would do this. She always thought that Chu Zhiyan treated her like a sister, but she didn't expect that he had such thoughts.

When they got home from school and were doing homework together, Qian Youyou hesitated and hesitated, but still didn't ask.

It was Chu Zhiyan who noticed her abnormality and took the initiative to ask, "Are you going to ask me about the rumor at school that you are my fiancée?"

Qian Youyou nodded somewhat embarrassedly.

Unexpectedly, Chu Zhiyan admitted it directly: "Yes, that's what I said."

"Why are you talking nonsense?" Qian Youyou blurted out.

"I'm not talking nonsense." Chu Zhiyan looked into Qian Youyou's eyes and said, "You are my fiancée. We have been engaged since we were young."

Qian Youyou immediately retorted: "Chu Zhiyan, those are just nonsense said by adults, don't take them seriously."

"Besides, in my heart, you are just a little brother. I take care of you like a big sister takes care of a little brother."

Chu Zhiyan heard this and suddenly frowned. He stood up and started packing his schoolbag. While packing, he said, "You really like another boy. You wanted to abandon me a long time ago!"

After saying that, he threw his schoolbag aside and left with heavy steps.

Qian Youyou was left confused and bewildered!

What is this all about?

Qian Youyou hurried to find him and make peace with him, but Chu Zhiyan was really angry and closed the door and refused to see her.

Qian Youyou kept saying nice things to him outside his door for a long time, but it was of no use.

Then that evening, the two families gathered together, and the adults solemnly announced in front of the two of them that they were an engaged couple and had been engaged since childhood.

Qian Youyou expressed disbelief on the spot.

Then the adults played the video recording of Chu Zhiyan's one-year-old birthday. In the video, Chu Zhiyan was dressed in bright red, looked festive and adorable. The toothless Chu Zhiyan smiled at the camera, holding the skirt strap of Qian Youyou, who was also dressed in bright red, with one hand.

Qian Youyou was making faces to make Chu Zhiyan laugh, saying, "Come on, Yanyan, call me sister."

Then, the adults took out a brocade box wrapped in silk cloth. When the box was opened, a pair of white marble peace buckles were found inside.

Mother Chu took out one of them, which had a small "Yan" character engraved on it. Mother Chu and Father Chu looked at Qian Youyou with a smile and said, "Come on, Youyou, put on this peace locket, and you will be our Yanyan's daughter-in-law."

Qian Youyou stared with wide eyes at her four-year-old self with pigtails, and happily put on the peace locket.

Then Qian's mom and dad asked Qian Youyou to call Aunt Chu and Uncle Chu: Dad, Mom.

Then the adults burst into laughter.

Then Qian Youyou and her mother put another peace locket engraved with a small "You" character on it around the neck of Chu Zhiyan, who was smiling with drooling eyes.

Then they smiled and said to Chu Zhiyan who was playing with Qian Youyou's skirt strap: "Yanyan, put on this peace locket, and you will be our Youyou's husband."

Chu Zhiyan shouted incoherently from her small mouth: "Excellent, excellent."

Then the adults clapped and cheered in surprise.

Then they released balloons and ate cake. The adults congratulated each other. Sometimes Chu Zhiyan was playing with the cake, and sometimes Qian Youyou was eating cake with cake all over her face.

The last scene is when the camera is facing little Qian Youyou, and the adults are telling her: "Youyou, Yanyan is your younger brother. You are a sensible child. You will always take care of Yanyan, right? You will spend your whole life together in the future and be filial to your parents together, right?"

Little Qian Youyou, with a very innocent face, smiled and said, "Yes."
