Chapter 37- Her proposal plus collateral (1)
After their lavish dinner, the family of three is preparing for bed when an unexpected dilemma arises.
Xu Li missed his mother for many years and decided to sleep with his mother, which infuriate his father at first. However, a thorough consideration, it was then agreed that they could both sleep with Vera, so on that night, father and son quickly move their sleeping quarters in the medical building.
It was a struggle considering Xu Long Wei's size, but it was an easy fix when on the next day, a customized huge bed came and was installed in the room. After that, the happy family, have dinner together and sleep together every night.
The staffs are even more curious after they find out that their master and the young master is now sleeping with the woman. No one understands the situation anymore; everyone could only speculate about the truth.
In a blink of an eye, one week have passed, and Vera's condition improves drastically. Fang Wubin, have given her an all clear to any activities. At the same time, she has started her treatment to lighten her scars — a renown plastic surgeon, who is an expert in scarring and skin restoration visited their house. Since the medical building contains all the necessary equipment for the procedure, the doctor agreed to come to every session and perform it inside the estate. Sometime, she would even have an overnight sleep in the mansion if the procedure will need more days to complete.
Vera is delighted with the set-up, and she is also optimistic that everything will go smoothly from now.
-------------------------------------------------
At Present, Vera is listening to her son, boasting about his robot. Xu Li rushed to his mother upon remembering about the robot he had painstakingly assembled. He completely forgot about it!
"This one looks like my first robot" Vera can't help to comment. "how did you make this?"
"I got the design of this from daddy's office" Xu Li admitted. He didn't inform his dad about taking the blueprint from his study room. Now, he is worried that his dad will be angry when he discovers his action.
"Hmmn, I see. You did very well, considering it is your first time to assemble an intricate design with only the blueprint". Vera complemented. If she is not mistaken, the blueprint that Xu Li acquired was her design.
When she was six years old, she designed a simple robot that records a conversation. It was one of her amateur creation; however, they hold a sentimental link to her.
She remembered that she had given all her blueprint design to Xu Long Wei as collateral when he tried to reject her confession. Out of desperation, she carelessly announced that, if she takes her as his wife, she can support him in the future.

In the dark corner of the alley, a tall boy was seated quietly. He is occupied with his reading and trying to ignore the small woman hovering on his feet. She is somewhat down, and he is bothered but didn't want to ask. For some reason, he feels timider every time he is with her.
"Xu Long Wei, next month you will be an adult. Are you going to date someone after?" The girl blurted the question.
He stopped his reading and said, "Maybe."
"Can you just wait for me instead? I will be an adult in 4 years. Besides, I have set my eyes on you first, so you are mine!" She declared not caring how it might sound to others.
Xu Long Wei, on the other hand, is unaffected with the girl's boldness. He is used to it now. Honestly speaking, he finds her character amusing.
"That is too long to wait. How would I know if you will want me after you become an adult? I don't want to waste my time waiting." He honestly answered. He closed his book and walked back to his run-down apartment without looking back.
