A couple of days ago, given Meng Zhiyun's usual temper, she would definitely have given Wang Hu a good scolding. But the situation is very different now; Wang Hu hasn't been able to stay by her side for quite some time.

So at this moment, Meng Zhiyun only wanted to cherish this rare time alone and warm together. Not only that, even Meng Zhiyun herself didn't realize that, without her noticing, she had gradually come to enjoy the feeling of being accompanied by Wang Hu.

However, to everyone's surprise, when they sat down around the table to enjoy the meal, they were astonished to find that the dishes in front of them were all burnt, one after another. Faced with this situation, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one took the first bite.

The other people at the table kept glancing at Meng Zhiyun, which made her cheeks blush slightly.

Just then, Wang Hu remained calm. He casually picked up his chopsticks, took a bite of the dark, burnt food, chewed it a few times, and then gave a slightly embarrassed smile, saying, "Hmm... although this food looks a bit burnt, it actually tastes pretty good! You should try it if you don't believe me."

Wang Hu was able to accept these burnt dishes without complaint because that was his family's eating habit since childhood.

In the past, whenever his parents went to work hard in the fields, young Wang Hu had to cook for himself, and burning the food was a common occurrence.

However, Meng Zhiyun couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she got up and went back into the kitchen to work again. Before long, she brought out two plates of fragrant and tempting new stir-fried dishes.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Wang Hu left home contentedly. He strolled leisurely to Yu Lili's place, hoping to have a good chat with her, but to his surprise, he bumped into Yu Lili's parents sitting inside as soon as he entered.

Before Wang Hu could react, after Yu Lili briefly introduced him to her parents, the two elders rolled up their sleeves and rushed towards Wang Hu aggressively, seemingly intending to teach him a lesson.

He chased, he fled, he sprouted wings... wait, no, it's more like Father Yu was chasing from behind, and Wang Hu was running in front. Suddenly, Wang Hu made a clean and swift turn. However, Father Yu, who was chasing closely behind, couldn't stop himself and his body leaned forward, about to fall to the ground in a sorry state.

In a flash, Wang Hu, quick-witted and agile, turned around and rushed over to support the swaying Mr. Yu. After firmly supporting Mr. Yu, his anger seemed unabated, and he raised his hand to teach Wang Hu a lesson. But just as his hand was about to strike Wang Hu, Mrs. Yu quickly reached out and stopped him.

At the same time, Mrs. Yu quickly spoke up to dissuade him, saying, "Oh, old man, don't be impulsive! What good will it do to beat him up now? His son is quite good to our Lili. Look at this big house, wasn't it bought by him?"

In reality, Yu's mother didn't harbor much dislike for Wang Hu. Although he caused her daughter's divorce, it's undeniable that Wang Hu treated Lili very well.

Not only did they buy a luxurious villa, but they also hired a nanny to take care of Lili's daily life. More importantly, Lili's name was prominently listed on the property certificate.

Mother Yu looked Wang Hu up and down and said with a smile, "Child, you must be Wang Hu, right? Hmm, you are quite handsome. No wonder our Lili is so infatuated with you."

Hearing this, Wang Hu couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Why did that tone sound so strange? Shouldn't such words usually be spoken by the groom's mother to the bride? He muttered to himself, "Why is it completely reversed here?"

Wang Hu was about to open his mouth to reply when Yu's mother didn't give him a chance to speak. She immediately launched into a series of questions: "Tell me, what are your plans for my precious daughter? When are you two planning to get married?"

Just then, Yu Lili hurriedly spoke up, "Mom, what are you saying? Wang Hu has only just turned eighteen this year. How can he be talking about marriage?" As she spoke, she gently tapped the table with her hand, a look of helplessness on her face.

In fact, Yu Lili had never considered letting Wang Hu marry any woman. After all, a man like Wang Hu, surrounded by many women, would hardly choose to marry just one of them easily. Thinking of this, Yu Lili couldn't help but shake her head.

At this moment, Mr. and Mrs. Yu, sitting to the side, simultaneously widened their eyes and exclaimed in unison, "What! Only eighteen years old?" Their gazes instantly turned to Yu Lili, their eyes revealing an indescribable strangeness. As if on cue, they secretly pondered, "Could it be that our daughter took the initiative in this?"

They simply couldn't understand why an eighteen-year-old boy would pursue a woman more than ten years his senior. It was utterly unbelievable!

If Wang Hu could hear their inner thoughts at this moment, he would probably retort without hesitation: "I just like women who are a little older than me. They are gentle and considerate, and their personalities match mine perfectly."

Seeing her parents' increasingly strange expressions, Yu Lili quickly turned to Wang Hu and said, "Wang Hu, didn't you say you had things to take care of at the company? Then you can go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of my parents here." After saying that, she gave Wang Hu a slightly apologetic smile.
