Chengdu.
After ending the call, Zhong Tingyue looked around the room.
From her own work perspective, the house design is neither luxurious nor unique, but it gives people a sense of ingenuity. If she were to design and decorate it, she would be confident that she could make the house exquisite and unique.
However, from her perspective, the house was very charming. Although it wasn't luxurious or exquisite, it was full of practicality. The charging plugs, bedside tables, curtains, etc., all showed that the residents' feelings were taken into consideration.
Furthermore, the room is decorated with exquisite murals, exuding a subtle warmth.
Hearing that the decorations for the house were decided by Chu's mother, Zhong Tingyue's lips curled into a slight smile.
I should have known better than to lie to my future mother-in-law today.
Click...
Just then, the door opened gently, and Chu Fang, dressed in his pajamas, sneaked in quietly, as if he were a thief.
Zhong Tingyue asked, "What are you doing?"
Chu Fang said with a serious expression, "We have a legend here."
She paused, then organized her thoughts, saying, "Countless years ago, there were ferocious monsters here that would capture newly arrived fiancées and deep-fry them. To protect their fiancées from being captured by these monsters, the fiancés had to stay by their side and never leave them for a moment!"
"And I have come to protect you!"
Zhong Tingyue was silent for a moment: "... ...How long did it take you to make up this story?"
Chu Fang blurted out, "Less than a second."
"You're really quick-witted..." Zhong Tingyue kicked her fiancé away: "Stop talking so much, go back to your room."
What kind of woman is Zhong Tingyue if her fiancé sneaks into her room on their first visit?
Absolutely not!
Zhong Tingyue is a woman of principle and has a sense of dignity!
Chu Fang feigned grievance and pouted, but she couldn't deny that her fiancé was just pretending, so she crossed her arms.
"You're my fiancée, why won't you let me sleep in your bed?"
Chu Fang replied affectionately, "No, Zhong Tingyue, I love you from the bottom of my heart. Until the end of time, until the sea dries up and the rocks crumble, no one in the world loves you more than I do. We are a match made in heaven, and I am willing to give my life for you."
Zhong Tingyue's lips curved into a smile. No woman can resist a man's sweet words, especially when those words come from her beloved. She was an ordinary person, and no one was an exception.
She asked, "If I don't let you sleep with me, will you still like me?"
Chu Fang was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "Nonsense, then why would I marry you?"
Zhong Tingyue's faint smile froze on her face.
Men deserve to die!
She gritted her teeth, feeling an urge to kill him, and used all her strength to push Chu Fang out of the house.
Chu Fang was pushed out of the room. Looking at the closed door, he shrugged helplessly: "Being a man is so hard..."
He turned around and saw Chu's father sitting on the sofa in his pajamas, sipping tea.
"Hehe..." Chu Fang wasn't embarrassed by his behavior. He casually sat down next to his father, picked up a cup of tea, and his father slapped his hand. Then he poured another cup of tea, which Chu Fang picked up and drank in one gulp, smacking his lips.
"That's not how you drink tea," said Mr. Chu, taking a small sip of his bitter tea.
Chu Fang disagreed: "How you drink it is your own choice; there's no fixed formula."
Father Chu shook his head and didn't say much. Late at night, the father and son sat on the sofa, drinking tea.
Like all fathers and sons in the world, Chu Fang and his father rarely chatted idly. Even when they did, most of their conversations revolved around Chu Fang's mother.
"Hey, is my mom asleep yet?"
"No."
"Why? She should be asleep by now."
Chu's mother has a very regular sleep schedule and never stays up late. In her words, staying up late is the biggest enemy of longevity, and if you want to live to be a hundred, you must have a regular sleep schedule.
Chu's mother, however, had slightly bigger ambitions and wanted to live to be a thousand years old, so staying up late was something she absolutely disapproved of.
Chu's father glanced at him and said, "You'll have to ask your fiancée about that."
“... ..."
Upon hearing this, Chu Fang gave an awkward smile.
So you were so angry with Zhong Tingyue that you couldn't sleep. Oh well, it's alright now!
In another room, Chu's mother stared at the ceiling, seething with anger.
I've never met such a difficult person.
Chu's mother sat up abruptly: "No! I have to think of a way to deal with Zhong Tingyue, otherwise she won't know who's in charge of the household! How should I deal with Zhong Tingyue? This is a question worth considering!"
"Or I could talk badly about her behind her back and make her lose face, but no, that would make me seem so petty; or I could make her serve me tea and water, acting like a domineering mother-in-law, but no, that would make me seem like a bad mother-in-law, like those villainous mothers-in-law in those melodramatic TV dramas; or... ..."
Chu's mother had many ideas in her mind, but she rejected them all.
Just then, Zhong Tingyue sent a message.
[Wang Shu will transfer 10,000 yuan to you.]
[Wang Shu will transfer 10,000 yuan to you.]
There were two messages in total, both notifications of money transfers, totaling 20,000 yuan.
"Huh?" Chu's mother was taken aback.
But she soon beamed with joy, and Zhong Tingyue's transfer of money to her meant that her future daughter-in-law had bowed down to her.
This is a good thing.
After thinking for a few seconds, Chu's mother only took back the 10,000 yuan that had been swindled from her.
[Wang Shu: Auntie, please accept the other ten thousand as well; it's a small token of my appreciation.]
Chu's mother decided to accept it.
[Wang Shu: Auntie, you really want to accept this? I was just kidding.]
[Wang Shu: I'm absolutely shocked.JpG]
Chu's mother clenched her fists: "!!!"
[A little fairy: I'm not returning it.]
[Wang Shu: If you don't want to pay it back, then don't. Why get so angry?]
[A little fairy: I'm not angry!]
[Wang Shu: I know, I know, you're not angry, you're happy, okay?]
Every word seemed normal, but Chu's mother always felt that something was... strange and unsettling.
[Wang Shu: Auntie, I apologize for what happened today. I'm sorry, please forgive my mistake (from the bottom of my heart).]
[A little fairy: Really?]
[Wang Shu: Of course, I've regretted it all day. I shouldn't have done that. I've disappointed you.]
[A little fairy: Okay, I forgive you.]
[Wang Shu: Thank you so much, Auntie. I'm extremely grateful. (whispering: I would be even more grateful if you could return the red envelope to me.)]
[A little fairy: No! Give it to me!]
Chu's mother was furious; it turned out that the apology was just for the red envelope.
No wonder he was so sincere.
False sincerity!
Bad woman!
In the next room, Zhong Tingyue lay on her side, holding her phone. The light from the screen illuminated her delicate face, revealing a hint of collagen. A slight smile appeared on her face.
