Chapter 4 - Giving up

At night, the Yiu family headed at the Grand hotel to meet Zuo family. Even though Yiu Chunxiu just arrived in the country, her family scheduled a dinner with Zuo Family so the two family could formally talked about the marriage.

Yiu Chunxiu looked younger than her age so she tried to look more mature as they were meeting the other family for marriage. She didn't go for her usual natural look. She didn't used heavy make up and only put light one yet she successfully made herself look like a highly dignified women while maintaining her demure look.

The body hugging dresses that Yiu Chunxiu doesn't normally used was now worn by her. She settled with it since she strive to look like someone who was ready for marriage. Her complexion that was already pale contrasted with the black dress she was wearing, it her made her skin became more brighter.

She smiled as she look at herself in the mirror. She was satisfied with her look.

Beside her was Yuntian who was looking at her with shining eyes, "Mommy, you look so pretty!" the little bun said with his small high pitched voice.

Hearing her son praised her, her heart softened. She knelled down and showered the little bun's fluffy cheeks with kisses. "And my son looks so handsome!"

The eyes of the little guy beamed with light as he clang into her, indicating that he wanted to be carried by her.

Yiu Chunxiu lifted the little guy when the she heard someone knocked. When she opened it, it was her third brother.

"Why are you carrying little master?" her third brother asked in confusion.

It was their grandfather who gave the nickname 'Little master' to her son. Yuntian's existence was greatly valued by the elders, it was even greater than her three brothers! No one would dare to make her son sulky as it was akin to the wrath of the elders.

"Ah?" She was confused as well with her brother's expression.

"You're meeting your potential husband and in-laws! Carrying little would mess your appearance." Yiu Chaun said in a distressed tone and hurriedly took Yuntian from her arms.

Yuntian has a sullen face on him. He wants her mother to carry him! After remembering that her mother said that they will meet his future father and she wants to look pretty, he restrained himself from crying.

Yiu Chunxiu kissed the kid in his cheeks again to coax him, "Don't be sad, let's sleep together later!"

The siblings laughed at the sight. This kid really valued her mother a lot! He was more thoughtful to her mother than Yiu Chaun thought.

"Let's go now?" Yiu Chaun asked to her little sister who looked stunning. For sure that Zuo guy will fall in love over again with her sister!

Oriental Oceans Hotel was known of their extreme privacy, rarely you can her complains about their services. A lot of private dealings also happens here, although the management know it they actually doesn't mind it. They would let the customers do whatever they wanted except when the prestige of the hotel was on the line. This was the reason why a lot of business underhanded deals happens here and the reason why this was one of the most trusted hotels of the socialite circle.

Yiu Chunxiu sat beside a stunning man. His prominent features were his thick eyebrows and his thin mouth, his nose that has a high bridge. His face was slightly tanned but this made him look more attractive. Although he was wearing his military uniform, he looked exuberant unlike the military men in her family who always appeared to be always stiff and on-guard. His cheerful aura made one feel more comfortable around him. Without doubt, his upbringing was excellent.

She had met this man once, during his grandfather's birthday party. They only did greetings and nothing less so she was surprised when she heard that the guy fell in love with her.

Yiu Chunxiu sat silently as she listened to the conversation of the elders and casually reply when she feels she needed to do so. However throughout the time, she felt that Zuo Huoyang constantly looking at her.

"So, you also planned to join the military even you just came back?" Mrs. Zuo asked her while looking at her with gleaming eyes.

She smiled at the elder and politely said, "Yes. I guess it runs in the family Auntie. However I still haven't taken my specialization on emergency medicine so I'm guessing I'll still study before becoming military doctor."

Her mother who was sitting beside Yiu Julong playfully slapped her father's shoulder and laughed, "This girl is too hard working! I wanted her to spent more time with her son but it seems like she won't be able to."

Suddenly Yuntian who was eating his meal looked at her, "Mommy won't be staying with Yuntian?" he asked with his high but cute voice. He had a sullen face, which made the elders of Yiu family panicked.

"Nope! Mommy just have to go to work! Then mommy will come back to Yuntian." she said to coax her son.

Yuntian nodded and continued eating his meal, still thinking of what his grandmother said.

"Hmm.. Then what specialization did you took in America?" Mr. Zuo curiously asked.

"I took Psychiatry in States. It's pretty much useless in military field though. That's why i want to take another specialization before I work for the military." she answered with a sweet smile.

She actually wanted to work on the Psychiatry field which was the reason why she took this, if not she would not dare to do so. However, just like she had said, being a surgeon or emergency doctor was the most utilitarian doctor in the military where there were a lot of injured soldiers. She would give up her wants for her family, anytime.

Zuo Huoyang who was just observing suddenly butted in with flushed face, "When we get married, you can just stay in the house and take care of the kids."

Yiu Chunxiu froze for a second but smiled shyly at the guy, "I also need to work even if I'm become a wife."

"Really, you don't need to. I'll work hard for our family." Then the guy next to him smiled brightly.

Her two elder brothers who were close to his fiance began to teased them, "If he said so, then be it. This guy is too persistent and responsible," her first elder brother said.

The conversation continued for a long time, when suddenly, Yiu Chunxiu excused herself for comfort room. She was walking in the hall when she saw a figure of a man in suit and a women who wore white little dress, she was about to ignore them when she saw who the man was..
