IN LOVE WITH A SOLDIER - Season 9 Episode 46
Lawrence knew that he was in big trouble now because his Aunt Selina was being a big wet hen.
“Aunt Selina,” Lawrence called out gently. He was trying not to infuriate her again.
“Lawrence, how could you ask Mike to go to the blind date on your behalf? Does that mean you will also let him marry your wife on your wedding day?” nagged Selina. She was really irritated by these two men’s small trick.
“No, no, no, Aunt Selina,” Mike replied hurriedly. He glimpsed at Lawrence before he went on, “Lawrence went to the blind date last night. He really did.”
“So, can you tell me why it was you who went to the blind date this morning?” questioned Selina again. “Why is Lawrence sitting in the office and working?” “Well, I…” Mike was suddenly at a loss for words.
Since Mike was stammering, Selina turned back to Lawrence.
She angrily asked, “Lawrence, how about the blind date last night? How did it go?” Lawrence didn’t answer so she added, “What do you think of Mary?
When Lawrence heard the last question, he only shook his head. He turned around to avoid Selina’s gaze and then he answered, “Not good.”
“Why? What’s the matter?” Selina asked in astonishment. She continued, “You know that she has a very good family background, right?”
“But she has a bad character,” Lawrence replied without hesitation. He knew a lot of young ladies like Mary who had great family backgrounds and just like them, he also didn’t think Mary would qualify to be his wife.
Selina didn’t know what else to say when she saw the indifferent look on Lawrence’s face. She kept silent for a moment. After a while, she finally said, “Well, since Mike screwed up the blind date this morning, you have to go on a blind date this afternoon.”
“No, I can’t. I have something to deal with this afternoon,” Lawrence directly refused.
“I can help you deal with it if it’s something about work so you can go to your blind date,” Selina suggested.
“It’s not about work,” Lawrence replied immediately. He didn’t want to explain anymore so he just said, “I have an appointment with Greg.”
Selina didn’t say a word when Lawrence mentioned Greg’s name. She fell silent again.
When he noticed that Selina went silent, Lawrence stood up and walked towards her. He then sat next to her. He put a hand on Selina’s shoulder and leaned closer to her. He said, “Aunt Selina, don’t ask me to go on blind dates anymore, okay? I promise you, I will definitely get married within one year.”
“One year?” Selina exclaimed. “That’s quite too long,” she complained.
“How about half a year? I’ll get married in half a year. Would that be okay?” Lawrence negotiated helplessly.
“No,” Selina firmly refused. “I’ll give you only three months,” she added. She looked at Lawrence intently and said, “You only have three months to get married starting today. Make sure to introduce her to me next month. Then I’ll hold an engagement party for the two of you as soon as I finish investigating her family background. On the third month, I will definitely schedule your wedding ceremony.”
When she finished talking, Selina immediately stood up and took her bag. She hurriedly left before Lawrence could get a chance to retort. But before she could totally get out of the room, she glanced at Mike and Lawrence and warned them, “I’ll let you live in a world of pain if you two dare to trick me like that again!”

Watching her receding figure going out of the office, Mike shouted with a weird smile on his lips, “Don’t worry, Aunt Selina. I’ll never get a chance to replace Lawrence on a blind date after three months.”
Lawrence, on the other hand, remained quiet the whole time.
When only Mike and Lawrence were left in the office, Mike looked at Lawrence with a perky expression on his face.
“Lawrence, I want to hear everything,” he said in a wicked smile.
Lawrence was aware that he couldn’t hide anything from Mike. After all, Mike was the most powerful when it came to gathering information in this city. He got eyes all over the city.
“You already know everything, right?” Lawrence asked. A weird smile once again appeared on Mike’s handsome face.
Then he said, “Hey, buddy! I think we need to celebrate your first time to spend a night with a woman. Last night must be a memorable one for you.”
“I don’t have time for any boring celebration. I’m quite busy right now,” Lawrence replied indifferently. He was actually thinking about Aria and her mother. He needed to deal with the hospitalization of Aria’s mother and he needed to take care of Aria as well.
“Busy?” Mike asked dubiously. “What’s keeping you busy? Is that something more important than being with me?”
Mike was obviously jealous. Over the years, he had always been staying beside Lawrence as if they could never be separated. So he thought that Lawrence should also prioritize him above all else. To his dismay, Lawrence was directly ignoring him because of something. Lawrence didn’t mind Mike’s question. There was actually something else that he wanted to tell him. So he gently called out his name, “Mike.”
“What’s the matter?” replied Mike indifferently. He was hurt that Lawrence once again ignored his question.
“I have a feeling that something will happen,” Lawrence answered. Even he couldn’t tell when and why he started to have this feeling.
When he heard Lawrence’s words, Mike unconsciously sat up straight and looked at him seriously. “What do you mean?” “Well, I can’t recall anything serious that happened recently,” he added.
“I don’t know,” Lawrence answered as he shook his head. “Ever since I met Sharon, I started to have this kind of feeling already,” he added with furrowed brows. His face looked cold.
“What could be wrong?” Mike also wondered. Then he added, “I’ve investigated everything about Sharon. She doesn’t have a great family background that’s why she is really trying her best to get into the elite circle.”
A confused look appeared on Lawrence’s face as he said, “I can always feel that something is wrong but I can’t exactly tell what it is.” All of a sudden, an image of a woman flashed through his mind. In his childhood memories, this woman used to be so kind to him. She used to take him out to have fun and buy some ice cream. However…
When Mike noticed that Lawrence seemed to be lost in his thoughts, he gently asked, “Lawrence, what are you thinking?”
“Nothing. I just suddenly miss my Aunt Jean,” Lawrence blurted out. Jean Shen had always been in his mind since she passed away. Although it had been so many years ago, he still missed her so much.
