“I got it, Mom,” Ye Xiaong said with a smile.
“Why did you co back?” Shu Pan asked, sowhat surprised. Wasn’t she doing fine here?
“I regret coming back a bit too. Now that I’m back, they treat like a pig, just eat and sleep. When I wake up, it’s ti to eat again,” Ye Xiaong complained. She thought coming back would an freedom and good food, but her parents, upon learning about her pregnancy, beca overly protective, treating her like a national treasure.
“Don’t complain when you’re in a good situation. And hey, you and He Ming are getting married, and you didn’t inform right away about such big news? That’s unacceptable,” Shu Pan pretended to scold her.
“Hey, girl, I only accepted his proposal. But his mom’s attitude is still lukewarm. I don’t even know if we can get married,” Shu Pan and Ye Xiaong both knew that He Ming was a filial son who wouldn’t want to disappoint his mother.
“As long as He Ming remains firm, there shouldn’t be a problem. You don’t live with her, so it’s not a big deal. Look at us, isn’t it the sa with Shaoting’s mom? She has never liked , but we still live our own lives peacefully,” Shu Pan had long since co to terms with it, not expecting any reconciliation with Song Can.
“See, we’ve already made plans. Both sets of parents will et next week,” Ye Xiaong said nervously.
“With He Ming around, everything will be fine. Don’t worry,” Shu Pan reassured her.
The two chatted for a long ti before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
When Shu Pan returned to the living room, Gu Shaoting had already finished his noodles and gone to the bedroom to shower.
Shu Pan stuck out her tongue. He was really fast, but she and Xiaong had indeed chatted for quite a while.
As Shu Pan returned to the bedroom, Gu Shaoting ca out of the shower. “Finished chatting?”
“Yeah, aren’t you supposed to be busy working tonight?” Shu Pan found it unusual for him to finish early; he usually worked in his study until late.
“I have a more important task tonight,” Gu Shaoting said with a aningful look in his eyes as he watched Shu Pan.
Shu Pan imdiately understood his intentions and went to take a shower, feeling a bit shy.
The day for He Ming and Xiaong’s parents to et arrived quickly. Ye Xiaong had been resting at ho for so ti now, her body slightly larger due to her pregnancy. She got up early in the morning and prepared herself.
She was still very nervous, worried that He Ming’s mother might embarrass her parents.
Father Ye and Mother Ye also woke up early to get ready. To show respect, they even dressed in formal attire.
Before long, He Ming ca to pick them up in his car. Since He Ming’s father could drive, He Ming didn’t need to pick them up himself.
They arranged to et at the Bin City Grand Hotel, where He Ming had booked a private room for convenience.
When they arrived, He Ming’s father and mother were already seated inside.
He Ming’s father was usually very busy, but for his son’s lifelong event, he had cleared his schedule.
“Hello,” He Ming’s father stood up and shook hands with Father Ye.
“Hello,” they exchanged pleasantries.
“Uncle, Auntie, hello,” Ye Xiaong greeted them politely.
“Please, have a seat,” He Ming’s father warmly invited them.
Seeing He Ming’s father’s attitude, Shu Pan breathed a sigh of relief. On the way here, she had prepared for the worst.
Indeed, He Ming’s mother now seed cold and aloof, a stark contrast to He Ming’s father. She had a stern expression, devoid of any smiles.
Mother Ye felt awkward seeing her deanor. She had intended to strike up a conversation with her, but seeing her lack of interest and reluctance to talk, she decided against it.
“We trust you with the arrangents for the wedding date. We have no objections,” Father Ye spoke up.
