"I don't think we're at the stage to discuss marriage yet."

Despite the abrupt questioning, Xiao Yuanmu still retained his calm. Although his voice was chilly, it didn't make the person he was refusing feel uncomfortable at all.

Not only was Li Nianan not angry, but her smile also became even more sincere. She said, "You're both young, so it's normal to not want to talk about something so distant. It's because I'm old that I'm thinking so much."

Song Xuanhe was finally able to let out the breath that had been stuck in his chest. He turned to look at Xiao Yuanmu and saw that the other's long, straight lashes were slightly lowered. It looked like he didn't plan on replying to Li Nianan's words.

"But," Li Nianan didn't force Xiao Yuanmu to reply either. There was a faint smile on her face, "Since the two of you are dating, you two should get along nicely. If you treat each other with sincerity, even if you're no longer together in the future, at least hatred will not be borne of your love, and you won't become enemies. Xuanhe is my son. I know that he's difficult to interact with. He always needs to be coaxed or persuaded. Sometimes, his temper can get really bad. However, he has dared to go against his father for you. They nearly had a falling out, and Xuanhe almost moved out. It's obvious that he really likes you. I hope that you'll take care of him a bit more."

Xiao Yuanmu's eyelashes trembled slightly. His eyes shifted towards Song Xuanhe, astonishment flitting through his heart.

When he felt Xiao Yuanmu's gaze on him, Song Xuanhe forced himself to keep a straight face. "Mom, are you done? I still have something to do with him."

"Alright. You young'uns go have fun with dating. I won't disturb you two anymore." Li Nianan smiled. "I was originally going to have dinner with the two of you, but Xuanhe didn't want me disturbing the two of you. I'll you two enjoy your own little couple's world."

Song Xuanhe tugged on Xiao Yuanmu and stood up. He hastily said, "We're going first."

Xiao Yuanmu was pulled downstairs by Song Xuanhe. Only after they had returned to their room did Song Xuanhe let a breath out of relief. At the same time, he felt like he really couldn't figure out why Mrs. Song was suddenly so supportive of him and Xiao Yuanmu being together.

In the past, at one point, she had been on the same side as Song Guochao. She had hoped that he would get together with Song Jiani.

"How long are you planning on holding my hand for?"

A sudden voice echoed through the room, interrupting Song Xuanhe's thoughts.

He subconsciously looked up into Xiao Yuanmu's eyes. He then belatedly realized that he was still holding Xiao Yuanmu's hand. He relaxed his own hand, wanting to let go. But a second before he fully let his hold go, he suddenly remembered that it would be best for him not to go against his character settings.

It didn't matter what was going on with Xiao Yuanmu. If he had changed, then what was important was that Song Xuanhe had to remain calm and act accordingly. If he hadn't changed, then Song Xuanhe should prepare accordingly. After Li Nianan's interlude, Song Xuanhe had actually calmed down. When he looked at Xiao Yuanmu, there was none of the vigilance and misgivings he had had in his eyes just a while back. In any case, he wouldn't end up any worse off than the original host.

The hand he had just loosened tightened again. He raised his chin and cocked a brow. "If I want to hold your hand, I will for however long I want. Even if I want to hold your hand all day, all you can do is let me hold it."
