Upon arriving at the state-run restaurant, Mu Shengnan handed the candied hawthorn she was holding to Huang Jianjun.
"For...for me?"
Huang Jianjun had just seen the candied hawthorn in her hand, and he thought Mu Shengnan wanted to eat it herself.
I never expected it to be a gift for him.
"Hmm, you don't like it?"
When Mu Shengnan saw that he didn't take it, she assumed that he didn't like candied hawthorns, so she prepared to take it back.
"I love it! I love candied hawthorn the most!"
Huang Jianjun snatched the candied hawthorn in a flash.
Then he was so happy that he secretly decided: from now on, candied hawthorn will be his favorite food!
This was the first gift Mu Shengnan had ever given him, and he wanted to cherish it!
Upon hearing Huang Jianjun say he liked it, Mu Shengnan immediately and generously replied, "I'm glad you like it. I'll buy it for you again later."
The atmosphere between the two young people just started to become all pink and bubbly.
But Chen Zhaodi, watching from behind, frowned deeply: "Tsk! Honey, why do I feel like our second child is so shy?"
Mu's mother was also sweating profusely, and looked at Mu's father expressionlessly: "Did you teach Shengnan to give gifts to people?"
"I didn't! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!"
Mr. Mu immediately denied it: "I guarantee that I have never taught my daughter to give gifts to others."
Just as Mu's mother was wondering who Mu Shengnan had learned from,
Mr. Mu added, "I just told her that when I went on dates with you, I always brought you little gifts..."
Mom Mu: (??へ??╬)
What's the difference between this and teaching her directly?!
Enraged, Mu's mother unleashed a long-lost martial art on Mu's father—the Deadly Pinch Hand!
"Aww!"
Suddenly, Mu's father was pinched on the soft flesh of his waist by Mu's mother, and he couldn't help but howl.
Then... they were discovered by Mu Shengnan and her group...
When Mu Shengnan discovered that her parents were actually with Huang Jianjun's parents, she couldn't help but sigh and rub her forehead.
Upon seeing Chen Zhaodi and Huang Eryuan, Huang Jianjun exclaimed in surprise, "Dad, Mom?! What are you doing here?"
Chen Zhaodi forced a smile and said awkwardly, "Hehe, I was off work and thought I'd stop by the state-run restaurant to see if they had any new dishes."
Mu Shengnan could tell that Chen Zhaodi was quite embarrassed, so she went along with her words, intending to give her a way out.
"Yes, it's nice to come here occasionally to buy some groceries and add some extra meals to the family."
Seeing that Mu Sheng not only didn't mind but also gave her a way out, Chen Zhaodi liked her even more.
Unfortunately, she was trampled to pieces by Huang Jianjun halfway up the steps.
"Huh? But our house is in the opposite direction from the state-run restaurant, and it's not on the way."
As soon as Huang Jianjun spoke, everyone turned to look at him.
Mr. and Mrs. Mu suddenly felt that they needed to seriously consider whether they should continue their relationship.
After all, if the child's father isn't very intelligent, it might affect the next generation...
Huang Eryuan didn't feel much of a reaction, but he might have felt awkward if it were just him and Chen Zhaodi.
But now that Mu Shengnan's parents are here, he feels okay; with more people around, it's not so awkward.
But Chen Zhaodi was embarrassed because this wasn't the first time she'd been caught!
Finally, Mu Shengnan gave herself a way out, but Huang Jianjun not only moved the way out, but also hung up Chen Zhaodi in the process.
Chen Zhaodi clenched her fists, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and kept telling herself: She's my own child, she's my own child.
He didn't do it on purpose, she can understand... but she can't understand a thing!
Mu Shengnan noticed Chen Zhaodi's clenched fists and, fearing Huang Jianjun would be beaten, quickly changed the subject: "Mom and Dad, Uncle and Aunt, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"
"Since we've run into each other, why don't we eat together?"
Huang Jianjun's brain finally came online at this moment: "Oh right, let's eat together? We just arrived and haven't ordered yet."
"Sure, it's fate that we met. We just happened to bump into each other, so let's eat together, haha."
After Mu Shengnan sat down, her mother originally intended to sit next to her, but Huang Jianjun plopped down right next to Mu Shengnan instead.
After sitting down, they warmly invited her to sit opposite them, saying, "Auntie, please sit down!"
Now, not only Chen Zhaodi, but even Huang Eryuan was speechless.
Who gave him the courage to sit next to Mu Shengnan in front of her parents?
How can someone be so oblivious?
He probably looks like his mother, sigh~
Chen Zhaodi was so worried; she was afraid that after today, Huang Jianjun would be returned.
How can you be so brainless in front of other people's parents?
He probably looks like his dad, sigh~
To prevent Huang Jianjun from doing anything foolish again, Chen Zhaodi sent him away: "Well, there aren't many people here now, Jianjun, why don't you go order some food?"
"Okay, I'll go order now. Mom and Dad, Uncle and Aunt, what would you like to eat?"
Mr. Mu looked at Huang Jianjun, who was sitting next to his daughter, with a forced smile: "There are a lot of us, so why don't we just order one of everything?"
"I looked at today's menu, and there are only five dishes. What do you think?"
Listening to Mu's father alone, there was no problem. However, seeing his expression, Huang Jianjun inexplicably started sweating.
He chuckled dryly and said, "Okay, I'll go order now."
"It cost six yuan and thirty cents in total, plus two ounces of meat coupons and one pound of grain coupons."
Huang Jianjun gasped inwardly. So expensive?!
He was planning to go shopping at the department store with Mu Shengnan on Saturday, but now he might have to borrow some money from his older brother...
When Huang Jianjun returned, he seemed rather dejected. To comfort him, Mu Shengnan quietly took his hand under the table.
She then discovered that Huang Jianjun's ears had instantly turned bright red.
When Mu's mother saw it, she asked curiously, "Hey, Jianjun, why are your ears so red?"
Then Huang Jianjun's face turned red instantly, and he stammered, not daring to explain.
Seeing this, Mu Shengnan quickly let go of his hand. She decided to tease him again the next time they went out alone together.
Huang Jianjun felt his hand being released and felt a little regretful.
......
Snap!
Xu Weiguo glared at Fang Hui and asked in a low voice, "Ouch! Why did you hit me?!"
"I'm swatting mosquitoes for you because they're biting you."
Fang Hui showed him the mosquito that had been swatted flat.
Then he yawned and said helplessly, "It's already past 11 p.m., and we've been waiting here for more than two hours."
Do you really think Director Chen will come over tonight?
