Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: “I would like you to get married soon”

Mrs. Huang is also a doctor like Mrs Bai but works in the Gastroenterology department.

"See you later!" Mrs Bai waved with smiles on her face.

Bai Xue picked up the coffee mug from the table and washed it.

"Mom, I really missed you in the past couple of days. You've not been home for a while now."

"I've been busy you know, there are lots of things I need to clear up. This time I'm just taking a short break." Mrs Bai sighed.

Bai Xue sat down on the task chair close to her mother and hugged her neck as she breath in her scent.

"Ha, I really missed your sweet scent." Bai Xue smiled.

"Are you a baby? Don't act like that." Mrs Bai chuckled while massaging her daughter's arms.

"Not only babies act like that. Well, at least I'm still your baby." Bai Xue chuckled.

"Of course you'll always be my snow." Mrs. Bai pinched her nose.

The reason her mother called her snow is because she was born during winter and that's why she and her husband named her Xue.

They both stared at each other while smiling before Mrs Bai picked up one of her palms as she massaged it.

"Xue'er, I would like to speak with you about something very important."

"What's wrong mom? Is everything okay? This is suspicious." Bai Xue's eyes narrowed. "What is it?"

She didn't even allow her mother to speak before jumping into conclusions.

"Be patient, it's…... a very important matter I'd like you to think about. I know it's so sudden…. but it's the best I can do for you now." Mrs Bai sighed with slight smile on her lips.

"I'm all ears." Bai Xue adjusted her chair before sitting up staring at her mother.

"I would like you to get married soon." Mrs Bai announced.

Bai Xue widened her eyes. "Mom is…. everything okay? Why are you suddenly deciding this?" Bai Xue checking her mother's temperature with her hands.

"Xue'er, I know it's too sudden, but I want you to get married as soon as possible. I'm so sorry to rush you like this."

"Mom, but an arranged marriage…. is the last thing I would want to have. There are many men out there who get married and then turn out to be the worst nightmare ever." Bai Xue pleaded.

"Not to talk about an arranged one, where I don't even know who he is. And I haven't even graduated yet." Bai Xue frowned folding her arms under her chest.

"Xue'er, you can register your marriage now, you don't have to jump into everything all at once. I just want you to get married soon." Mrs Bai sighed. "You both can get to know each other in the process and then decide what you want."

"You can trust me on this one I promise you. He's a good person." Mrs Bai assured. "I and your aunt Ziyu raised him together. Along with an especially important person you'll meet him soon."

"There are also other people in the family, but you don't need to care about them for now." Mrs Bai added.

"Who?" Bai Xue raised an eyebrow.

"He's your Aunt Ziyu's nephew." Mrs Bai whispered.

"Oh…. really, I never knew Aunt Ziyu had a nephew." She frowned.

"My snow, would you please do this for me?" Mrs. Bai pleaded holding her daughter's hand while tears filled her eyes.

"Alright mom. I'll do as you say." Bai Xue smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry I have to make it so sudden, But I'm just in a bit of a rush." Tears rolled down Mrs Bai's cheeks.

"Oh mom, you don't need to cry. Your little snow here will fulfill your desires." She wiped the tears off her mother's cheeks and hugged her while smiling.

Right from a very young age after her father died, she watched her mother go from chronic distress to happiness overtime. It has always been her wish to make her mother happy. And right now, her mother's current request is a must fulfill for her.

"Mom, can we schedule the marriage registration till after my internship interview. I have to prepare, and I can't have other things ongoing." Bai Xue pouted and blinked her eyelids multiple times in a cute manner.

"I really want it to happen very soon, but I'll let you finish the interview process before we decide. Also, you both will meet before the day." Mrs bai replied.

"We…. will be meeting? Like…... on a date? Together?" Bai Xue stuttered as her eyes widened.

"Yes, it's better we schedule it like that, so you both will be more familiar with each other."

"What's…. his name? Or do you have any information about him I would like to…. see what he looks like. Is it a good family? How old is he?" Bai Xue rushed to ask her mother. At least she would like to know his name and every other thing about him.

"About his family, we'll meet them after the marriage registration."

"I'll send you his information when I'm less busy, his name is Liu JiaJun. He's the CEO of…."

The emergency alarm from Mrs Bai's phone rang cutting off her words. Mrs Bai quickly checked what the emergency is about and replied with a text.

"Xue'er, when I get home tomorrow, let's talk more about it. Okay?" Mrs Bai put on her coat. She selected two ballpoints pen on her desk and put it in her chest pocket.

"Okay mom, I'll wait for you till you're back. If I go home now…... I don't know what they'll provoke me to do again." Bai Xue frowned.

"That's alright with me, but just in case I'm not back till evening, just go home and wait for me. I have a seminar to attend, and it might take a while till I'm back. Also, I might have to come back tomorrow morning, so don't wait too long." Mrs Bai pecked her daughter's cheeks before leaving in a fast pace.

"Alright mom, be careful." Bai Xue smiled and waved till her mother was out of sight.

Bai Xue stood up from the task chair as she starts to arrange and clean up few places in the office. She picked up the coffee mug and washed them properly before returning them back to its place.

After settling down she picked up her laptop from the tote bag. She clicked on the link the professor sent to her mail for the internship program. As She began filling the information and documents needed. Moving on to the next page where she must submit a copy of something she has designed herself before.

She selected a few drafts she has on her file and submitted it. Giving back replies to her email, the main interview is scheduled in the next few days.

Bai Xue finished the process in two hours and decided to take a nap before going home later.

Her journey has really been back and forth starting from going to school and then back to her mother's office. Bai Xue laid down on the couch by the corner of the office.

Bai fengyi is dressed in a black satin mini dress of draped neckline and adjustable spaghetti straps. Ruching along the sides creating a figure-hugging silhouette.
