Chapter 627: Chapter 627 How Could It Be So Easy?_1

"Also," Li Wuyu continued, "the gifts you brought were really too much, he didn’t like them. He told me to let you know, next time you come to my house, bring less. A small token is fine. Once your mourning period is over and our affair is completely settled, no matter how much you bring to my house, he, as your future father-in-law, will gladly accept everything."

"Father-in-law... Sir?" Wang Youbao’s mind suddenly tied in a knot, completely unexpected that one moment there were dark clouds, and the next there was clear weather with the sunshine just right.

Happiness came so suddenly!

"Yes, Father-in-law, sir," Li Wuyu nodded and said with a smile. "My father just agreed to our affair yesterday, but he wanted to examine you today, so he wouldn’t let me tell you in advance."

"How... how can this be..." Wang Youbao was still somewhat in disbelief. How could it be so easy. She was the daughter of the Prime Minister, and he was what, just a merchant.

"If you don’t believe it, I can take you to see my father right now, ask him yourself, how about that?"

It was only then that Wang Youbao recovered, too happy for words, "No need, no need, I believe, I believe. I just didn’t expect your father would agree, and agree so easily at that."

"I also didn’t expect him to agree so easily," Li Wuyu said. "However, my father said, he agreed because he saw that your character is very good, and that’s why he is willing to marry me to you. You must not change in the future, and let me down."

Wang Youbao immediately swore to the heavens, "I, Wang Youbao, hereby swear that I will never let down Li Wuyu in the future. If I break this oath, may I be punished by heaven and earth."

Li Wuyu jumped with joy several times, "Youbao, I just knew you wouldn’t let me down!"

Wang Youbao had already gotten used to Li Wuyu not acting like a typical lady, so at this moment, he didn’t feel anything was amiss. Instead, he looked at Li Wuyu with a smile on his lips and a doting gaze, watching her be extremely happy.

"Youbao, let’s go buy some sugar figurines," Li Wuyu remembered the sugar figurines and wanted to buy some to eat. "Let’s forget it for today, come to my house again tomorrow, and formally meet my father, and we will have a meal together."

"Hmm."

Because Prime Minister Li had agreed to their marriage, all the previous gloom had been swept away. Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu bought the sugar figurines with particular joy.

The following day, Wang Youbao visited the Prime Minister’s residence again.

Wang Youbao came alone, bringing a tael of tea leaves with him. He hadn’t even handed over his visiting card when the doorkeeper respectfully invited him in.

In the main hall, Prime Minister Li was seated in the place of honor, with Li Wuyu standing by his side speaking to him. As soon as he saw Wang Youbao, Li Wuyu stopped talking to Prime Minister Li and ran over to Wang Youbao with great joy.

"Youbao, you’re here!"

"Mm," Wang Youbao gave Li Wuyu a gentle smile, then went to kneel before Prime Minister Li, but just as he was about to lift his robe, not yet kneeling, he heard Prime Minister Li say, "There’s no need, you’re not an outsider anymore."

Wang Youbao immediately thanked him, "Thank you, Prime Minister."

Before Prime Minister Li could speak, Li Wuyu said, "Youbao, you don’t need to be so formal. Even though we are not yet married, it’s indeed not appropriate to call him Father-in-law, but you can call my father ’Uncle’ for now."

Wang Youbao didn’t immediately call Prime Minister Li ’Uncle.’ He first subtly gauged Prime Minister Li’s expression, seeing that he didn’t seem unhappy, then he called out to Prime Minister Li, "Uncle."

Prime Minister Li gave a slight nod, which counted as a response. Then he asked, "I gave you a hard time yesterday, were you angry?"
