“It’s what you promised me – be my girlfriend once you have entered university!” Yang Ming smiled.
“I… I only said that I would give you a chance. Stop putting words in my mouth! Okay. Let’s stop talking. Tomorrow, you must e to school, or else I will revoke your chance. I am hanging up!” Chen Mengyan felt that her heart was almost jumping out of her throat. She no longer dared to chit chat with this guy and immediately disconnected the phone. She patted her small chest and let out a sigh as she saw that her parents didn’t notice her at all. She then quietly returned to her room.
At this moment, in the living room, Father Chen and Mother Chen exchanged a look and took out a small device from their ears.
“Darling, both of us are mitting a crime!” Father Chen shook his head and explained, “According to Protection of Minors Act, Article 69, both of us are breaching the privacy of our child!”
“Damn, Little Yan is having a relationship so early. Why are you still in the mood to talk about these things? She’s almost eighteen years old and going to be an adult soon! And what crime? I am her mother. So what if we eavesdrop on her conversation! She was a piece of meat that had fallen off from me [1], what privacy is there to preserve?!” Mother Chen snapped.
Father Chen shook his head. Mother Chen’s attitude reflected the thinking of many parents at present. In their eyes, their children don’t deserve any form of privacy.

Even though Father Chen didn’t support what Mother Chen did, he didn’t go against it when Mother Chen suggested listening in on their daughter’s conversation.

“But, what if it affects her studies? Why don’t you go to Little Yan’s school tomorrow and discuss it with her class teacher?” Mother Chen said with a worried heart.
“No! I cannot go, and you also cannot go! There are two more months until the National Higher Education Entrance Examination. If you were to mess it up and cause our child to be in some sort of defensive mood, it would be terrible! At the present situation, these two children just had some affection towards each other, but nothing was happening yet. How would that affect her studies!” Father Chen shook his head, “Moreover, in these past few months, Little Yan’s results haven’t really declined!”
“You are right. I think I was a bit too impulsive and I’m glad that you reminded me!” Mother Chen nodded her head and said, “Oh yeah, who was the guy who gave Little Yan a call?”
“Weren’t you listening? He didn’t say it in the phone call so how would I know? Do you think I am Detective Rengjie?” Father Chen gave out a helpless expression and he pointed at the television show that was airing now,
