Based on the current situation, the first impressions of both sides seem to be quite good.
"Uncle Chen, Aunt Ye, hello. My name is Wang Ming, you can just call me Xiao Wang. My mom asked me to bring these things to you. She originally wanted to come back with me, but she's been too busy lately and couldn't get away, so she had to send me back alone."
Wang Ming spoke very politely, handing over all the gifts he was carrying.
"It's alright, it's alright, work is the priority, work is the priority," Shen Jianjun quickly replied.
He now knows that Wang Ming's mother is the vice president of a large company, and the movie she's making is currently showing in theaters. These are big projects worth over a billion yuan. He can't afford to let his work be affected by his daughter's affairs.
Shen Jianjun accepted a large pile of gifts, glanced at them casually, and was immediately startled.
Two bottles of exquisitely packaged Moutai, two cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes, two tea bricks he had never heard of before, two jars of honey, two boxes of cordyceps, and two boxes of donkey-hide gelatin.
These gifts are obviously expensive and not something an ordinary person like him can afford.
However, this indirectly shows that Wang Ming's mother values her daughter very much.
“Yingying said you haven’t had breakfast yet. These are freshly cooked dumplings. You two should eat them while they’re hot, or they’ll get cold,” Ye Qiuju said, holding her apron with both hands.
"Yes, thank you, Auntie."
Shen Ying secretly tugged at his sleeve, and Wang Ming understood and followed her to the dining table to sit down.
"Eat quickly," Shen Ying whispered.
Even without her saying it, Wang Ming knew that if he could act more casually, it would be easier for them to communicate.
"Did Auntie make these dumplings herself? They smell so good." He took a bite and said sincerely.
Although it's just a traditional chive and pork dumpling, the skin is thin and the filling is generous. One bite and your mouth is full of juice, with a very rich flavor.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiuju smiled.
"Eat more if you like it, take your time. There's still some left in the pot, add more if you're not full."
"Yes, yes." He nodded without hesitation. It had been a long time since he had eaten such delicious handmade dumplings, and he was indeed a little hungry.
Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, Shen Ying breathed a slight sigh of relief; this guy had actually done quite well.
"If Yingying hadn't come back and told us yesterday, we wouldn't have known you two were dating," Ye Qiuju said with a smile.
Wang Ming looked slightly embarrassed and said, "I should have come to your house last year, but I was too busy and couldn't get away. Before I knew it, another year had passed."
"It's okay, it's okay, things are fine now."
Ye Qiuju went into the kitchen and brought out two plates of dipping sauce, placing them in front of the two of them. She then pulled up a chair and sat down, asking with a smile, "I heard from Yingying that you two were high school classmates, but went to different universities, right? The fact that you two, living in different places, could still get together shows that it's fate."
Hearing her mother talking about her, Shen Ying shyly lowered her head and silently ate the dumplings in her bowl, unable to join in the conversation.
Are you in the capital city right now?
"Yes, she usually juggles studying and working, so she's quite busy. That's why she usually comes to see me during winter and summer vacations."
Ye Qiuju glanced at her daughter; Shen Ying had already told them this last night.
"To have achieved so much before even graduating is already quite remarkable," Shen Jianjun suddenly remarked.
"Uncle Shen, I was just lucky," Wang Ming said modestly.
What he said wasn't wrong. If Jiang Xia hadn't forcibly dragged him onto the ship, he would probably still be preoccupied with online games, and his future life would have been destined to be a failure.
Shen Jianjun was speechless; he didn't believe a single word about luck.
You might win a big lottery prize if you're lucky, but can it make someone a director with billions in box office revenue?
Even now, with his limited imagination, he simply cannot fathom how a college student could be connected with a famous director.
He earns enough in a year for an ordinary family to live on for a lifetime. He has reached the pinnacle of life at a young age. His daughter is lucky to have found such an outstanding young man as her boyfriend.
Wang Ming ate dumplings one after another, and soon the plate was empty. Ye Qiuju turned around and went into the kitchen, where she scooped him another spoonful.
"Thank you, Auntie."
"You're welcome, take your time eating," Ye Qiuju said with a smile.
"By the way, Xiao Wang, I wanted to ask, Yingying is studying in Chongqing, how does she usually participate in her work?" Shen Jianjun suddenly asked.
Wang Ming swallowed the dumpling in his mouth and said simply, "We live in the information age now. For now, she's in charge of online operations. Whenever the company has a new project, she'll be responsible for promoting it online using a computer."
"oh oh."
Shen Jianjun nodded blankly. He didn't know much about computers, only that many students liked to play games online, but he never expected that his daughter could make money with a computer.
"and you……?"
"I'm an art student, majoring in animation in college. At the company, I mainly work as the animation director for Tom and Jerry," Wang Ming said honestly.
"Is it the Tom and Jerry show that's on TV every day? I've seen it, it's pretty funny," Shen Jianjun said with a chuckle.
He never imagined that one day he would be living under the same roof as such a famous director, and if nothing unexpected happens, he would even become his son-in-law in the future.
Indeed, life is unpredictable.
"Xiao Wang, you're coming back this time, so you'll probably stay until after the New Year, right?"
Wang Ming shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I also wanted to stay that long, but my mom only gave me three days off because the movie is about to be released, and I have to go back and promote it with the team."
