Cheng Chiyan still didn't say anything, looking at his feet.

"Did you hear that? Are you dumb?"

Mother Cheng's voice suddenly rose in pitch, carrying a hint of anger. Her usually obedient son's attitude made her suppress her anger towards Lan Xi burst out.

Knowing that his mother was angry, Cheng Chiyan murmured in a low voice: "It can't be broken!"

"What?" Mother Cheng sat up straight in her rocking chair. She couldn't accept her son's rejection.

Someone pulled the hand on the armrest, and Grandma Cheng's voice came:

"Afen! Listen to the child and don't be impatient!"

"Mom! Look at him, how can this be a good thing? He still can't stop? I think he doesn't want to stop!"

Mother Cheng's tone slowed down. In her eyes, her son deserved the best woman, but definitely not someone like Lan Xi!

"It's not that I don't want to break up!" Cheng Chiyan raised his head and said.

Mother Cheng pressed on: "If you want to break it off, then break it off quickly!"

Grandma Cheng followed her daughter-in-law's anger, looked at Cheng Chiyan, and asked calmly: "Chiyan, you tell me! Explain it clearly!"

Then he looked at his daughter-in-law and said, "Calm down and understand the situation clearly first!"

Mother Cheng wanted to say something, but was pulled by Grandma Cheng, and she shut up with a bad look on her face.

"Because of grandma's surgery, we signed a one-year contract. We can't go back on our word just because grandma is discharged from the hospital. That's inappropriate!"

Cheng Chiyan spoke slowly. Although it was still difficult to speak, more important things were waiting for him and he had to take care of the affairs at home.

Mother Cheng's voice fell silent, and her right hand clenched into a fist unwillingly. Indeed! The Cheng family has taken advantage of others' affection!

Even if she doesn't like Lan Xi, she can't be ungrateful!

Seeing that her daughter-in-law didn't say anything, Grandma Cheng breathed a sigh of relief:

"Will this online stuff affect your work? That company you mentioned earlier!"

Cheng Chiyan didn't rush to answer. He was thinking about what to say.

When Cheng's mother saw her son's hesitation, she knew something was wrong:

"Grandma is asking you a question!"

This time the tone was much better. After all, Lan Xi was the benefactor of the Cheng family.

"I came back this time to discuss how to resolve this matter. First of all, I swear I don't have a girlfriend. Secondly, Lan Xi means no explanation!"

Cheng Chiyan observed the expressions of the two people as he spoke, feeling uneasy.

"Don't explain what?" Seeing her daughter-in-law speak anxiously again, Grandma Cheng asked first.

Cheng Chiyan pursed his lips, and the hand holding the bag tightened:

"Don't clarify the relationship between the two of you yet, just use the hype to push me in front of the audience first."

"That won't do! Isn't that just telling everyone you're being kept?"

Cheng's mother disagreed.

Grandma Cheng thought about it for a moment, then looked at Cheng Chiyan suspiciously: "What do you think?"

This made Cheng's mother react. She looked at her son and said, "You don't... agree, do you?"

"I didn't!" Cheng Chiyan's face flushed, looking a little embarrassed.

Looking at the situation, Grandma Cheng and her daughter-in-law looked at each other, both with shock in their eyes.

Based on their understanding, Cheng Chiyan should have refused decisively. After all, the Cheng family's family education would not allow them to use public opinion to create momentum like this.

How long has it been since...

The long silence between the two made Cheng Chiyan feel uncomfortable, and he regretted his big reaction just now.

"It's up to you once you've thought it over! We can't give you any advice on this matter!"

Grandma Cheng spoke slowly and lay back in the rocking chair.

Cheng's mother felt that it was inappropriate, but she also felt that there was no better way.

She lay in the rocking chair for a while, looking at Cheng Chiyan with a bit of resentment in her eyes:

"You! If you have any problems in the future, go home and discuss it first, instead of making decisions on your own!"

Cheng Chiyan lowered his head again: "I understand, the situation was special and I didn't have time. I won't do it again!"

The attitude was very good, but Cheng's mother always felt something was wrong.

"Mom, I won't eat at home. I have something else to do. I'll be back in two days!"

After Cheng Chiyan finished speaking, he gave a few more instructions before leaving.

Mother Cheng sighed and lay down, the abnormality that had just occurred replaying in her mind.

"Mom! Have you noticed...what's wrong with Chi Yan?"

"A red flower becomes redder if you keep company with a red flower; a black flower becomes blacker if you keep company with a black flower!"
