I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law

Li You’s eyes widened and she said in disbelief, “Why? I thought you would say that relationships can’t withstand tests after a long time. The first person to change his mind will be Pei Jingzhou.”

“Haha…” Guan Suling suddenly smiled brightly. This was a smile rarely seen on Guan Suling’s face. Li You laughed too. After Guan Suling smiled, she said to Li You, “Little Pei might have a change of heart, but the probability of him having a change of heart is lower than yours, because he’s too proactive. Do you know that in love, the most proactive party often doesn’t end well?”

Li You smiled, but she could no longer smile.

It’s over.

After hearing her grandmother’s words, she felt that she had the potential to be a scumbag. It was as if she would one day fall in love with someone else and abandon Pei Jingzhou, who had been by her side for many years.

Li You found a good reason. “Pei Jingzhou is handsome, rich, and has a good figure. He’s one in a million. With such an outstanding boyfriend by my side, and if I can still fall in love with someone else, I must be blind.’

Guan Suling patted the back of Li You’s hand. “Silly girl, don’t you understand what Grandma means?”

Li You was stunned. “Huh?”

Guan Suling reminded her, “Be more proactive and treat him better. It takes so much energy and time to go back and forth from the capital to Country T. How firm must his belief be to last so long? Now, do you understand what

Grandma means?”

So that was what her grandmother meant.

Li You nodded. “I understand. I’ll take the initiative.’

The next day, Pei Jingzhou came to the Nio residence early to wait for Li You.

Li You came out with a shopping bag and sat in Pei Jingzhou’s front passenger seat. She had dressed up specially today. Her emerald green halter dress was paired with small rhinestone strappy sandals. Her hair, which she had permed before, was slightly curly and fell down her back like seaweed. She was ridiculously beautiful.

Pei Jingzhou stared at her for a long time. Li You leaned over and asked, “Does it look good?”

Pei Jingzhou nodded and said, “Yes.”

The girl’s smile was as sweet as a peach and as bright as a lotus. She was uniquely beautiful in front of Pei Jingzhou. While he was in a daze, he sensed that she had taken the initiative to hold his hand.

He looked down and saw Li You take out a ring from somewhere and silently put it on his middle finger. The size of the ring was very suitable. It was obvious that it was custom-made. Pei Jingzhou stared at the ring for a long time until he heard Li You call his name. “Pei Jingzhou.”

Pei Jingzhou slowly looked up. The next second, the girl pushed herself up from the armrest box and reached over to hook her other hand around his neck and kiss him. The kiss on his lips was very light and soft. It seemed to be the same as usual, but also different from usual.

“Oh no.” After Li You left Pei Jingz,hou’s lips, she saw a crystal clear smile on Pei Jingzhou’s lips. She suppressed a smile and thought to herself, Oh no. She accidentally rubbed her lip gloss on Pei Jingzhou’s lips.

It was all her fault for applying a thick layer of lip gloss when she went out. In order to look good, she had just kissed and completely forgotten about this.

Pei Jingzhou raised his hand and gently scratched his lips with his fingers.

When he looked down again, Li You’s lip gloss was printed on his fingers.

Li You looked apologetic. “The next time I know I’m going to kiss you, I’ll definitely put on matte lipstick. Lipgloss is easy to transfer.”

Pei Jingzhou couldn’t help but laugh. “Anything.”

With that, he raised his hand with the ring on it. With the back of his hand to her, he asked, “This is?”

Li You said loudly, “Birthday gift.” After saying the birthday gift out loud, she whispered, “Do you like it?”

Pei Jingzhou nodded. “Yes, I like it.” She would burst with joy for a long time because of the word “like”. “Thanks for the birthday present,” he said.

“What are you thanking me for? You’re my boyfriend. It’s only right for a girlfriend to prepare a birthday gift for her boyfriend,” she said with a smile.

Pei Jingzhou asked her, “Is it a couple ring?”

“How did you know?” Li You’s smile turned to surprise.

“I don’t think you’ll just buy a plain ring. If you only buy one ring, it’ll probably be patterned. There should be two plain rings, I guess,” he said slowly, but his tone was firm.

Li You opened her palm under his gaze. “You guessed right. It’s indeed a couple ring.”

Pei Jingzhou reached out to take it and held her hand. “Since it’s a pair of rings, I’ve already put it on, so you have to put it on too.”

The size of her ring was also very suitable. Seeing Pei Jingzhou put the ring on her finger, she murmured, “It feels like a proposal.”

Pei Jingzhou picked up her hand and kissed the part where the ring was on. “When that day comes, it will be a unique ring. The diamonds embedded on it will be your favorite color. The diamonds will also be your favorite shape. They will be very dazzling and most suitable for you.”

He was talking about a diamond wedding ring.

Although that day had yet to come, when he said it now, she felt very, very close, as if their wedding were right in front of her.

Suddenly, she was looking forward to it.

She opened the bag for Pei Jingzhou to see. “These are also gifts for you, but it’s more important for us to go out and play. You can take your time to look at them tomorrow, okay?”

Pei Jingzhou reached out to take it. Actually, he couldn’t help but want to open it and take a look. However, there was very little time in the morning, so he couldn’t delay it for too long. He took a rough look and placed it in the backseat reluctantly. “Okay.”

Next, Pei Jingzhou drove Li You to the sea of flowers to take a hot air balloon. There was little time in the morning. This plan was just in time.

After lunch, they went to the cafeteria that Li You had booked. She had booked a cake in advance, She knew that Pei Jingzhou did not like noisy places, so she booked a private room in the cafeteria.

Although he didn’t eat much of the cake, the meaning was very important. After all, it was also a birthday. It meant that another year had passed.

In the afternoon, Pei Jingzhou brought Li You to the paragliding base. Li You liked this ride very much. It was Pei Jingzhou who brought her to play for the first time. Ever since then, she had liked it.

Pei Jingzhou and Li You were outside for the entire day. After playing and eating, Li You was exhausted. She fell asleep in the car on the way back.

When she woke up in a daze, she realized that she was in Pei Jingzhou’s arms. The surroundings were very familiar. It was the front garden of her grandmother’s house. Instantly, she woke up and turned to look around. “Why are we back?”

Pei Jingzhou stopped in his tracks. “What?”

Li You turned to look at Pei Jingzhou. “Why are we back?”

Pei Jingzhou told her, “It’s almost seven. If you’re tired from playing, I’ll send you back first.”

“Why are we back? Couldn’t we go to a hotel!” In a moment of anxiety, she blurted out the words without thinking.

Pei Jingzhou’s eyes darkened.. “To… a hotel?”
