When the Chinese New Year was less than half a month away, Jiang Lai suddenly realized that he was going back to the United States with Li Zechen this year.

Although I had met Li's mother before, this time it was an official meeting with his family.

If Li Zechen proposed to Jiang's father and them to take her back, she was not too nervous, but as the days got closer and closer, she began to feel a little wrong.

And of course, this kind of wrongness can't escape Li Zechen's eyes.

He stretched out his hand and snatched away the book in Jiang Lai's hand that had not turned a page for half a day: "What's the matter? ”

Jiang Lai looked at him and hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Are we really going to the United States during the Chinese New Year?"

Li Zechen smiled and sat down beside her: "Haven't you all met my mother? Don't worry, my family is not as complicated as you think, only my parents, grandfather and my cousin are in the United States, and everyone else is in China."

"When they found out I had a girlfriend, they wanted to see you. Especially after knowing that I have met your parents, I have been urging me to take you back. Don't worry, with me, you don't have to think about anything, just stand by my side!"

Jiang Lai stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his neck, leaned his head on him and sighed: "At that time, you said that you were nervous, but now I can feel your feelings." ”

Li Zechen looked at her with amusement, and pecked her lightly on the lips: "Well, reward you." ”

Well?

Jiang Lai looked at him with a puzzled expression: "What reward?"

"Congratulations on finally empathizing! I was nervous that day because I wasn't sure if your parents would have a bad impression of me because of the accident last time. I wasn't completely sure until I walked in. ”

Jiang Lai was surprised, she just heard him say nervous, but she didn't expect him to be so nervous.

"Don't you believe me? I want to get your parents' approval with the most sincere attitude, so that they can trust you to me.

"Thankfully, though, everything is working out. So, this time I'm taking you back just to introduce you to my family and let them know that this is the girl I like, the wife I want to spend my life with. ”

Not surprisingly, Jiang Lai was teased again.

--

On the day of departure, Jiang Lai received concerns from all sides.

In particular, Joey actually prepared a "100 rules for meeting her mother-in-law" for her, and told her that although she has the unique advantage that Li's mother is her drama fan, this is the first official "meeting parents", and she still needs to pay great attention to it.

Jiang Lai's scalp was numb and became more and more nervous.

"What are you looking at?" Li Zechen handed her a bottle of water and glanced at the phone screen by the way.

Jiang Lai didn't have time to stop it.

Li Zechen took the phone from her hand and looked at it roughly.

Jiang Lai was a little uncomfortable and wanted to take the phone back: "Don't look at it, it was sent by Joey casually." ”

He curled his lips and smiled: "Don't be too intimate with your boyfriend, be careful of your future mother-in-law being jealous!"

Jiang Lai was embarrassed.

Li Zechen held her hand and clasped his fingers: "Don't worry, your future mother-in-law has been looking forward to this day for a long time, and I guarantee that she will not only not be jealous, but will also be happy to see it." ”

Jiang Lai stretched out his other hand: "Who wants you to guarantee it!

Li Zechen didn't agree: "In order not to let you be disturbed anymore, the mobile phone will be placed here with me temporarily, and I will give it to you when I get home!"

In this way, Jiang Lai's mobile phone was "confiscated"!

--

As soon as the two entered the door, Li's mother had already greeted them.

Li Zechen glanced at the living room: "Where's my dad?"

Mother Li pointed to the kitchen: "I knew you were coming, so I started preparing early in the morning." ”

Father Li came out of the kitchen when he heard the sound and greeted Jiang Lai.

Although he single-handedly founded the territory of Chenxin Entertainment, Father Li's aura is obviously strong, and it feels the same as when he first met Li Zechen, which is a little difficult to approach.

But after chatting for a while, I realized that Dad Li was a little cute, especially when facing Mother Li, he didn't look like a boss who was decisive in the mall.

Later, Li Zechen was called to help in the kitchen, while Jiang Lai accompanied Li's mother to sit in the living room drinking coffee and chatting.

"I heard Zechen say that he has already visited your parents, and now he has brought you back with him, so when are you going to get married?"

"Goo-dong!"

Hearing this, Jiang Lai almost choked on coffee.

Just thinking about how to answer this question, there was an extra hand on his back: "Mom, we haven't discussed this matter yet." ”

Li's mother wondered: "Didn't you say that the plan to get married at the age of 35 will not change? Your father and I have begun to discuss going to meet our in-laws!"

Dear, in-law?!

Jiang Lai found that he couldn't keep up with Li's mother's rhythm at all, so he turned back to Li Zechen for help.

Li Zechen patted her on the shoulder to show comfort, and then said to Li's mother: "It's just right to prepare now, I originally wanted to talk to you about this matter." ”

Jiang Lai's eyes widened and he looked at him incredulously!

What's the situation?

What to prepare?

Why doesn't she know anything?

As another party, don't you need to discuss this matter with her?

Jiang Lai was still silently accusing someone, but Li's mother smiled: "That's good! You can discuss the specific matter now, and I'll go find your father!"

After saying that, Li's mother stood up and walked quickly towards the kitchen.

There were only two of them left in the living room, and Jiang Lai finally couldn't help it: "Eh, shouldn't someone explain what did you mean just now?"

Li Zechen didn't answer and asked, "Do you want to go to my room?"

Jiang Lai poked him with his finger: "Don't change the subject!"

He grabbed her fingers and then took his whole hand, "Are you sure you want to talk here?"

Before Jiang Lai could speak, he continued the question just now: "Then go to my room to talk?"

"Don't!"

She refused bitterly.

"Why?"

"Your parents are here, and I'll go into your room in broad daylight, I don't want to lose face?"

A smile tugged at Li Zechen's lips: "I just want you to simply visit, but if you want to, it's not impossible!"

The deep meaning in his eyes was too clear and distinct, and Jiang Lai almost lifted the table!

Who thinks that?

--

The next day, Li Zechen took Jiang Lai to many places, including his alma mater.

Walking around campus, Li Zechen told her some interesting things about her college days.

Jiang Lai listened carefully, but also sighed: "Your college life sounds like you are simply repeating a few things, so there is nothing special?"

Li Zechen raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What do you want to know?"

"Uh......" Jiang Lai blinked, "For example, ......" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard an exclamation, and then saw a tall blonde beauty walking towards them, reaching out to hug Li Zechen, but he avoided it.

Li Zechen turned his head and introduced to Jiang Lai: "This is my college classmate, Alya." ”

Then he told Alya: "This is my girlfriend, Jiang Lai!"

Alya was a little unhappy with Li Zechen's dodging action, and when she heard his words, her eyes looked at Jiang Lai a few times, and then she said hello.

Jiang Lai shook hands with her with a light smile on her face, but she intuitively felt that this Alia was not as simple as a college classmate to Li Zechen.

Sure enough, Arya made sure to invite them to dinner, saying that it was a reunion of old friends, and that she called another person.

As soon as the person came, Li Zechen had a smile on his face, and he told Jiang Lai that this person was the friend who wanted to see her when he was in Switzerland, Qi Minghao.

"Hello!

Jiang Lai looked stunned, and always felt that there was something else in his words.

Qi Minghao smiled and didn't say anything, just glanced at Li Zechen.

Li Zechen pretended not to see it, and took a sip of the water glass.

When everyone arrived, when ordering, Li Zechen asked Jiang Lai what he wanted to drink?

"Ice orange juice!"

Li Zechen glanced at the menu and ordered hot milk.

After clicking on it, he saw Jiang Lai's puzzled expression, and explained softly: "It's the end of the month soon!"

Jiang Lai reacted to the deep meaning of his words, and instantly felt a little embarrassed, and pinched him under the table with his hand.

Qi Minghao glanced at them, looked down at the menu, at this time, since his "light bulb" couldn't turn off the light, he had to turn down the light a little.

And Arya saw the interaction between the two, but the expression on her face was a little unbearable, and she called Li Zechen, and when she saw him coming over, she continued to speak.

During the meal, Arya obviously focused on Li Zechen and kept looking for a topic.

Li Zechen communicated with her in English on the one hand, but on the other hand, he was busy serving vegetables to Jiang Lai.

And Jiang Lai enjoyed her boyfriend's services and didn't intervene much.

In the meantime, Li Zechen got up to go to the bathroom, and Qi Minghao also got up to answer the phone after a while.

Only Jiang Lai and Alya were left at the dinner table.

Arya looked at Jiang Lai, who had been eating with her head down, and was very annoyed, obviously she and Li Zechen had known each other for a long time, and they had already fallen in love, but Li Zechen rejected her.

In the past few years, she has been paying attention to Li Zechen's news, knowing that he has no girlfriend, she still has some expectations in her heart, and even wants to look for him in China, but before she can act, the news that Li Zechen's relationship is public is overwhelming.

She looked at Jiang Lai carefully, obviously she wasn't very good, how could she make Li Zechen like it?

The more Arya thought about it, the more unwilling she became, and finally couldn't help but speak.

It's just that she said a few words, but Jiang Lai just looked at her and smiled, and didn't speak.

She was a little annoyed, and suddenly a sentence in Chinese popped up: "I'm talking to you, why don't you answer?"

As soon as the words fell, she saw the smile on Jiang Lai's lips deepen, and then she reacted.

When Li Zechen and Qi Minghao came back, they saw such a scene.

Jiang Lai smiled lightly and looked at Arya opposite, but Arya's face was a little embarrassed.

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

Li Zechen sat down beside Jiang Lai.

Jiang Lai smiled and put the dish into the bowl for Li Zechen, and then said: "Just talk casually, I didn't expect Alia's Chinese to be so good." Then he pointed to the dish in the bowl, "This dish is delicious, you can taste it!"

Li Zechen easily guessed what had just happened, but he didn't say anything, just picked up the chopsticks and ate the dish.

Arya's expression became more and more unsightly.

Qi Minghao saw everything in his eyes, but he never spoke.

Alia's thoughts, he knows, Li Zechen knows, and now it seems that Jiang Lai also knows, but he has been standing still, interesting!

Until the end of the meal, Arya's face was not much better, and she left beforehand.

Qi Minghao also said goodbye: "I will also leave first, there are still many things that have not been dealt with in the United States this time, and when you go to Switzerland, I will definitely treat you well." ”

Li Zechen bowed slightly.

Jiang Lai also smiled and said yes.

Qi Minghao put his hand on Li Zechen's shoulder and said meaningfully: "When you get married, remember to send me an invitation, I can be regarded as your 'old man'!"

Li Zechen bowed: "Definitely!"

Joking?

Jiang Lai looked at the eye contact between the two men suspiciously.

Qi Minghao didn't break it: "Let him tell you!"

Waiting for Qi Minghao to leave, Jiang Lai waited for Li Zechen to give her an answer.

I didn't want Li Zechen to ask her: "Where else do you want to go?"

She shook her head, and just wanted to tell him not to change the topic, she heard Li Zechen say: "Then let's go back now, I have something to show you!"

"Good!"

When he went back, Li Zechen took Jiang Lai directly to the room on the second floor.

"What the hell are you going to show me?"

Li Zechen didn't speak, just led her to the bookshelf, took out a book from the top, and handed it to her.

Jiang Lai hesitated and took the book: "This is what you want to show me?"

"Open it and take a look!"

She opened the book as she had been told, but saw a picture on the title page.

She is all too familiar with the people in the photo: "How can there be a picture of me in this book...... Oh, no," she recognized the clothes she was wearing in the photo, "I bought this dress when I was in college, and I don't wear it for a long time, how can I ......"

And the eyes are not right, but they are like ......

Jiang Lai looked at Li Zechen, and there was doubt in his eyes.

He said softly: "Actually, the first time I saw you was not on the plane, but through this photo." ”

Jiang Lai was slightly stunned.
