She had lost her usual arrogance and domineering. A week had passed, but she still looked lifeless
and her eyes were stagnant. Without any expression on his face, Bob frowned and ignored Brody for
the time being. He walked towards Elsa, carefully put his arm around her shoulder and said in a soft
voice, "Be careful."
With an expressionless face, Elsa let Bob take her to her parents. He looked at her father respectfully
and said seriously, "I'm coming here with sincerity today. A few days ago, Elsa has agreed to my
proposal. We sincerely hope that you can agree with it. In that case, I can't be more grateful. I will try
my best to give her the happiness she wants."
After saying that, the expressions on their faces were totally different. Mrs. Xu just took a cold glance at
Bob. Then she stood up, walked up to Brody and said with a smile, "Brody is here. Do you think we are
old? You haven't come here for three or five years. "
Brody was slightly stunned. Three years and five years? Was it that serious? He smiled gracefully and
helped Mrs. Xu to sit back. "You are exaggerating. Isn't Brody too busy?"
Mrs. smiled, "Never mind. I won't make a fuss with you. Young people should have their own career.
When I was young, a woman wanted to do something big every day, not to mention you, a dignified
man!"
Mrs. Xu kept on talking. Her purpose was very simple. She wanted to let Bob retreat from difficulties. Of
course, Brody understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Men's career is really important.
Aren't you going to marry your daughter? As her brother, I'm here to have a look. "
Mrs. Xu was stunned for a moment, and then leaned against the sofa with a long face without saying a
word. On the contrary, Mr. Xu, with a straight face, lowered his head slightly and remained silent. The
dead silence and embarrassment were finally interrupted by Brody.
"Elsa, did you really promise him?" Brody stood up and looked at Elsa.
Elsa came to her senses suddenly. When she looked at Brody, an obvious pain flashed through her
eyes. "Will you care?" Brody was stunned. Looking at Elsa's sad face, Bob couldn't help holding her
tighter and said domineeringly, "We have agreed to live together for the rest of our lives long ago."
Brody turned his head to look at Bob with his sharp and cold eyes. Bob frowned and said coldly, "Do
you also want to get involved in the matter of the Xu family?" The implication was obvious that it was
not appropriate for him to interfere in Elsa's marriage.
"Elsa, she is my sister. Of course I'm in charge of it. If she wants to marry someone, she can marry
anyone, but she can't marry a person with a bad reputation."
Bob's face froze. At this time, Brody turned to look at Mr. Xu and said respectfully, "Uncle, I think what
you have done is right, so I support you. Elsa is not only your daughter, but also my sister. When she
was a child, she followed me. I saw her grow up."
Hearing this, Mr. Xu raised his head and looked at Brody seriously. He said in a lukewarm tone, "My
daughter can get married, but she can't marry anybody carelessly." Although he was looking at Brody,
everyone present could understand what he meant.
An instant embarrassment flashed across the face of Bob. Now, it was what he had suffered. He felt
unprecedentedly helpless. He lowered his eyes and looked at Elsa, while at this time, Elsa's eyes were
only staring at Brody's face. She seemed to be in a daze, which made his heart ache. He was not only
helpless, but also felt sad. It was a kind of darkness that frightened him.
Brody nodded. He was about to say something to Bob, but when he saw Charlie who was making a
face at him, he frowned and remembered that there was another person here, Charlie. He was really
not easy to deal with. He had to get involved in everything.
While Brody was thinking, Charlie suddenly said with a bright smile, "Well... I don't think so. I think the
most important thing is Elsa's own opinion. She has been depressed since she came back. I'm also
wondering if she became depressed because she fell in love with someone but couldn't be together
with him. It seems that my guess is right now. Maybe they have been together for a long time, but I
don't know what happened. She was depressed because they broke up. Now her boyfriend came back
to find her. It was a happy thing. Why did you have to make the family a mess? And you, Brody, I said
that you had already had a wife and three children. What else could you get involved in? My sister
loved you before, but now she is going to get married. Even if you understand now, it's too late for you
to regret what Elsa has done for you. Just accept your fate. There is another one at home, isn't there?
Just make do with that little pepper. Don't think too much about it. Don't even think about my sister. In
the past, when she loved you to death, you disdained her. Now she has changed her mind, so she has
fallen in love with another man. So, don't make trouble for her. Be careful that your wife will quarrel with
you endlessly. In addition, the scene is for yourself... "
Brody frowned and stared at Charlie with a gloomy face. If it weren't for his parents, he would have
punched the man in the face.
In fact, everyone else was shocked by Charlie's long speech. They didn't even know what he was
talking about.
Staring at Charlie's complacent face, Elsa said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense!"
When did she become depressed for others? Hearing what Elsa said, Charlie smiled happily and said,
"Finally you speak. Come on... Tell me, do you really want to marry this man? "
Brody cast a sharp glance at Charlie. Didn't he know who Bob was? With an annoying look on his face,
Charlie looked at Brody provocatively and asked, "What do you think? Let me tell you. You are not the
only good man in the world. My sister can love you to death, and of course she can love someone else
wholeheartedly. "
"Don't talk nonsense!" Mrs. Xu cast a stern glance at Charlie, and then he sat down with his legs
crossed.
There was another dead silence. Bob stared at Elsa's indifferent face. She didn't know that he just
needed her to say a word, and she didn't say anything. Even if he wanted to marry her, he couldn't
force her.
After a long while, Mr. Xu raised his head and looked at Bob seriously. Compared with Mrs. Xu, he had
some respect for him. "Marriage is not a game. I only have one daughter. Go out and ask others. How
many people will agree with your relationship?"
Bob's eyes flashed, as if he had seen hope. Mr. Xu didn't refuse as unreasonably as his wife. To put it
bluntly, women were short-sighted.
"I know what you mean. I don't think it's a matter of age between us. I only know that I love her and I
want to marry her."
Hearing that, Mr. Xu frowned. Taking advantage of this chance, Charlie suddenly exaggerated, "Oh, by
the way, you can be much older than my sister. Let me see if you are twenty years older than her."
Charlie pretended to be serious as he spoke.
After a long time, Charlie muttered, "Alas... Is this going to be extremely difficult? Evelyn is twenty three
years old. He is forty-six, well... This age gap is really a little unacceptable. "
Hearing that, Bob frowned and took a hard look at Charlie. What on earth did he mean by that?
With a smile on his lips, Brody tried hard not to laugh. Soon, everyone found a problem. With a
darkened face, Mrs. Xu pinched Charlie's ear hard.
With a tangled face, Charlie shouted, "Ouch! Please be serious. They are talking about marriage and
getting married randomly. I'm an adult now, but I'm still tweaking my ears. "
With a long face, Mrs. Xu pulled Charlie's ear hard and lowered her voice. She gritted her teeth and
said, "How old are you?"
