Su Jinru was also in the restaurant. When she heard someone say her daughter had brought a boy with her, she was flipping through the purchase order. Her fingers on the paper paused, and she couldn't react at first: "Which daughter?"

She has three daughters. If it is the eldest daughter, there is nothing strange about it. The boy must be her husband Zhou Hongsheng.

The person below answered: "It's Xixi."

Su Jinru was so surprised that she accidentally tore a corner of the list.

The person who passed the message was also an expert at speaking. He didn't finish his words all at once, but instead continued with the next words: "Xixi asked the store employees to call that boy "guye". He should be her boyfriend."

Su Jinru lost her composure and stood up.

She was confused. How could it be the eldest brother? Xia Yue didn't come to the restaurant today, and Xia Xuan wasn't there either. It could only be Xia Xi.

Su Jinru hurriedly took the elevator down and saw the boy next to Xia Xi. He was very tall and looked very good next to Xia Xi. She walked closer and saw his appearance clearly. His face was more handsome than she had imagined.

Regardless of other things, just based on the external conditions, he can be said to be one in a million.

As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him, which means she may not like him at first. But when it comes to Su Jinru, she breaks the mold and is very satisfied with him at first sight.

But why does it seem like I've seen that boy somewhere before?

Xia Xi had previously told her on the phone that she was in a relationship. Out of trust in her daughter, she did not inquire too much and did not know the other person's name or appearance.

Secondly, she felt that most relationships during college were unstable and unlikely to last. The two people might break up before meeting each other's parents.

Xia Xi spoke a few words to Aunt Lin, then turned her head and inadvertently glanced at Su Jinru. She was stunned for a moment, then naturally lowered her arms to the sides of her skirt, behaving very politely. She secretly touched the back of Xu Yanfeng's hand and reminded him, "My mother..."

Before he could finish his words, Su Jinru came over.

Xu Yanfeng was caught off guard. He hadn't thought Xia Xi would bring him in and introduce him to the elders, so he hadn't prepared. It would be rude to come to their house empty-handed for the first time, without even a gift.

In an instant, Xu Yanfeng pulled himself out of his predicament and greeted everyone first: "Hello, Auntie, I'm Xu Yanfeng, Xia Xi's... boyfriend."

He is a man who has experienced all kinds of situations. Even if his thoughts are confused, they will not show on his face. He is calm, gentle and polite.

"Hello."

Su Jinru looked at him back and forth for a few times, her expression suddenly froze, and she finally understood why he looked so familiar. She had indeed seen this face, in Xia Xi's mobile phone!

Su Jinru smiled gently at Xu Yanfeng. When she looked at Xia Xi, her expression was strange. She hesitated for a few seconds, pulled her aside, and asked in a low voice: "Is this your boyfriend?"

"Ah, is there any problem?" Xia Xi didn't understand why her mother was so mysterious.

Could it be that she looked down on Xu Yanfeng?

No matter how high her standards were, they could never be higher than Xu Yanfeng's - she swore that she was very objective and was definitely not a lover who only sees beauty in others.

"Do you think your mother is old and her memory is failing? Didn't you find this boy to fool your aunts and uncles?" Su Jinru took a breath and said slowly, "You personally clarified in front of me and your grandmother that you are not in a relationship. He is a shield you found. There are no aunts and uncles here, what are you doing?"

Xia Xi's face was filled with sudden enlightenment. She finally understood why her mother reacted that way. She explained seriously, "We weren't together at the time. I didn't lie to you. I had a one-sided crush on her and it took a lot of effort to get her."

Su Jinru: “…”

She didn't know about this, and when she heard Xia Xi mention it for the first time, her expression was as if she had choked on her food.

Su Jinru took some time to digest this matter, and her expression slowly returned to normal. She glanced at Xu Yanfeng. It was no wonder that her daughter took the initiative to pursue him. The young man looked really outstanding.

"Is he from South City?"

"Yeah." Xia Xi nodded and smiled, "I came here specially to see me."

It would be bad to leave him alone any longer, lest people misunderstand that she was dissatisfied with him. Su Jinru smiled and pulled Xia Xi back to Xu Yanfeng: "Sorry, I was delayed a little while talking to Xixi about your affairs."

Xu Yanfeng remained calm and didn't mind. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry for coming here to disturb you."

"Don't bother me, don't bother me." Su Jinru smiled sincerely, "It's lunchtime now, let Xixi take you to eat something. Her grandmother will be here later, and I have to take care of her, so I won't be with you."

Xia Xi: "Grandma is coming?"

"The old lady arranged a meeting with some old sisters."

"Then you go ahead and I'll take our son-in-law to the private room upstairs." Xia Xi winked playfully, "Is room 402 still available even though the guests have checked out? I want that room. Can you please tell the front desk, dear mother, to make sure no one else takes it?"

The store has been packed with customers recently and there are no extra private rooms. She doesn't want Xu Yanfeng to be squeezed in the noisy lobby.

What? Our son-in-law? He's not married yet...

Su Jinru blushed for Xia Xi and patted her on the butt: "Let's go, let's go quickly." She also made arrangements for her, "You don't have to work at the restaurant this afternoon. Treat Xiao Xu well and take him for a walk around the area. He's made a great effort to come here."

Even if Su Jinru didn't say it, Xia Xi didn't plan to stay in the hotel in the afternoon.

What a joke, Xu Yanfeng came to find her, how could she bear to leave him.

"Okay."

Xia Xile was so excited that she dragged Xu Yanfeng's hand and strode towards the elevator. Xu Yanfeng was dragged by her for two steps before he remembered to say to Su Jinru, "Thank you, Auntie."
