Wen Yixing closed her eyes and slowly said, "I think you seem a little nervous today."

Shen Jingshao smiled: "A little."

Wen Yixing opened his eyes. The bedroom was dimly lit, but his facial features were still clearly visible.

Too sleepy, Wen Yixing closed her eyes, shifted her body, and nestled comfortably in his arms.

After a while, Shen Jingshao thought she had fallen asleep, but then he heard her ask softly, "Haven't you met many times already?"

Shen Jingshao also spoke softly: "This time is different."

This is because it's a formal meeting with the parents, unlike previous meetings.

"Ah Shao."

"Um?"

Wen Yixing was probably about to fall asleep, and she spoke very softly: "Actually, I was a little afraid of you at first."

Shen Jingshao knew she was already a little sleepy, so he asked, "Why are you afraid of me?"

Wen Yixing paused for a while before speaking softly: "Because you look a bit fierce."

Shen Jingshao laughed: "And now?"

Wen Yixing: "He's a bit fierce now too."

Shen Jingshao: "Really?"

Wen Yixing replied softly, "Mmm."

"sorry."

Wen Yixing: "Mm."

Shen Jingshao paused for a moment, then said, "I'll be gentler next time."

Wen Yixing did not respond.

I don't know if she's asleep or if she's angry and doesn't want to talk to him.

Shen Jingshao was in a good mood. He looked down at her and coaxed her gently, "Go to sleep."

----

News travels incredibly fast back home.

On the second day of Wen Yixing and Shen Jingshao's stay in their hometown, news of their upcoming wedding had already spread.

The neighbors all found out, and more and more people started coming over to visit.

Most of them came to celebrate and share in the joy, and some even came specifically to see Wen's new son-in-law.

In recent years, everyone has known that the Wen family's new son-in-law is a powerful and wealthy man.

The main reason is that Wen Yixing herself is very capable now. Her homestay has opened and she has also invested in businesses in the town, creating many new jobs. Young people who used to work outside are now starting to choose to return home to find work.

Wen Yixing's actions also caught the attention of the town's leaders. When Wen Yixing and Shen Jingshao returned, the town's leaders came to visit them in person.

As a result, Wen Jianguo has been walking with a swagger lately, and he looks particularly proud.

After finishing all the messy things, Wen Yixing went to check out the guesthouse with Shen Jingshao. The guesthouse was already renovated and would be open for business by the end of the year.

There are dedicated people here to handle this, so Wen Yixing doesn't need to worry too much.

The air on the mountain was cool and the environment was beautiful. Wen Yixing walked along the roadside for a while, and there was a group of ducklings being raised by a stream not far away.

The sun was shining brightly, and a small white cat was lying in front of the wooden house, basking in the sun.

Wen Yixing looked into the distance, then turned back to Shen Jingshao and said with a smile, "When Yaoyao is on summer vacation in a while, we can come here to escape the heat."

Shen Jingshao: "Okay."

Speaking of the future, Wen Yixing couldn't help but think of something. After a moment's thought, she said softly, "When I get back, I'm thinking of visiting my uncle and aunt."

Wen Yixing has never been to Shen Jingshao's house.

The Shen family has too many members and is a well-known wealthy and powerful family in Beijing.

During that time, Shen Jingshao was worried that the Shen family would cause trouble and disturb her studies, so he did not reveal Wen Yixing's identity to the family.

This trip will inevitably involve dealing with people I know from before.

Thinking about this, Wen Yixing began to understand Shen Jingshao's nervousness.

She looked up at Shen Jingshao and asked, "What do you and your aunt like? I'll prepare in advance."

"It's alright, I've already prepared the gift." Shen Jingshao smiled. "They have everything they need at home. They'll be happy if you're willing to go."

...........

Wen Yixing planned to resolve the matter quickly. She discussed with Shen Jingshao that they would go to the Shen family the day after returning to Beijing.

That evening, after finishing dinner, Shen Jingshao called Li Qingyi while Wen Yixing and Fang Jingyao were enjoying the cool air outside.

At that moment, Li Qingyi was playing mahjong. Shen Jingshao could recognize the sound of mahjong tiles and asked, "Are you playing mahjong?"

Li Qingyi was engrossed in playing mahjong, and her response was somewhat perfunctory. She said, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

"I've discussed it with Yixing, and she'll come to see you the day after tomorrow."

"It's all settled..." Li Qingyi hadn't finished speaking when she suddenly realized something was wrong. She immediately put down the mahjong tiles in her hand and asked with delight, "Is Yixing coming to our house?"

Shen Jingshao: "Yes, we'll go there the day after tomorrow."

Li Qingyi: "Okay, okay, I understand! I won't fight anymore. I'll go home now and have someone prepare."

Shen Jingshao was worried that Li Qingyi's formality would make Wen Yixing uncomfortable, so he added, "No need to be too formal. We're just going over for a meal so you can meet."

Li Qingyi: "Okay, I understand. Remember to bring Yao Yao along too! Your dad hasn't seen Yao Yao in a long time. Last time I told him that Yao Yao has grown really tall, but he didn't believe me and said I was lying to him! Bring Yao Yao over this time so he can have a good look at him!"

Shen Jingshao: "Okay, I'll ask Yixing first."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Li Qingyi was in a great mood. After hanging up the phone, she told her friends, "I'm not playing anymore. You guys keep playing. I have something to do and I'm going home."

Her friends looked up at her and said, "You seem so happy. Is there some good news at home?"
