Chapter 50 Meeting the In-Laws

Xiao Xuanjin looked at her pupils which were illuminated by the golden light, reflecting the brilliant glow of the sunset.

The warmth from her fingers continuously passed through the palm of her hand to his heart, and he vaguely felt that the invisible net entangled in his heart seemed to be broken.

His movements were faster than his brain's reaction, and he raised his arms and grabbed her.

Looking up, the sun is rising, its light penetrating through thousands of clouds. The huge crack across the sky seems to be inspired by the horn of hope, breaking through obstacles and dispelling darkness.

Su Mi leaned on his shoulder, feeling the warm sun enveloping him, and at the same time, a burning sensation came over her wrists.

She looked down and saw the red bracelet. Could it be that the bell was ringing?

She stared at the little bell without blinking, and even held her breath, waiting, expecting to hear some sound.

The bell didn't ring, but Xiao Xuanjin's voice was heard, his voice hoarse, "Su Su, tomorrow... is the anniversary of my grandfather's death."

Su Mi looked at him in surprise. He had never mentioned it before, and even when she asked him that day, he didn't explain in detail.

But now I am willing to take the initiative to bring it up.

"I come here every year at this time because my grandfather loved this place when he was alive, so I want to come back and take a look on his behalf."

Su Mi listened quietly at the side.

"For so many years, I have been alone. I didn't expect that you would join me this year."

At this point, he smiled, his smile was bright and warm in the sunlight, "I was actually more surprised than surprised to see you sneaking over here."

Hearing this, Su Mi raised his chin and snorted, "Sure enough, he says one thing and does another."

He was so cold and indifferent when she first arrived that she was worried that she would be chased away.

Xiao Xuanjin stroked her hair with his big hand from time to time, "So...are you leaving today?"

Su Mi looked at the bell on his wrist, which was still not ringing, and asked, "Can I stay?"

"My parents will be here today, you can stay if you want, it's a good opportunity to meet them."

What? Xiao's parents are coming, and tomorrow is the anniversary of Grandpa Xiao's death, so they will definitely come to sweep the grave.

While Su Mi was in a trance, Xiao Xuanjin looked over and teased, "What? Are you afraid of meeting your parents-in-law?"

What parents-in-law?

Su Mi's face turned red and he turned his head away.

The two of them were going to break up sooner or later, so there was really no need for them to meet their parents.

At least that's what Su Mi thinks now.

Xiao Xuanjin leaned over and observed her, "Don't worry, they are all good people. We will meet sooner or later. There is nothing to be afraid of."

Su Mi didn't respond or refuse, and talked about something else, "I'm hungry, can you go make me breakfast?"

Now the sun is high in the sky, a new day has begun, and it's time to have breakfast.

Xiao Xuanjin agreed readily, "Okay, I'll go take a look."

Before leaving, he did not forget to remind her, "Be good and wait for me."

Su Mi smiled and nodded.

Wait until Xiao Xuanjin goes out.

Su Mi went to the bathroom to wash up first. While brushing his teeth, he was still communicating with the system in his mind, "What's going on? Why is there still no response?"

The little gorilla seemed to be wondering what the problem was. […Host, don’t worry, I’ll look up the information first.]

Su Mi looked at herself in the mirror, still guessing, "I can feel the temperature of the bracelet, but there is no sound. Could it be that Xiao Xuanjin has something else to worry about?"

【Host, please be patient. 】

How could Su Mi not be anxious? She had finally arrived now and had to speed up. The longer it took, the more she was afraid that she would not be able to distinguish between the mission and reality.

"Xiao Xing, you're the one who said that this time the possibility is very high. If this doesn't work, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future."

[Host, the specific result still depends on the situation. It is not so absolute. ]

[Wait, host, I found out...]

"What's the reason?" Su Mixin asked and stopped washing his face.

[The key to the ringing of the bell is not only the penetration of love, but also the blessing of anger. 】

"What? Rage?"

[Yes, theoretically speaking, a person’s love or not is best reflected when he is angry. If he can control his emotions for you when he is angry, it means that he must love you terribly.]

Su Mi rolled his eyes and wiped his face clean, "Do you think I'm stubborn?"

She was so scared that she was jumping on Xiao Xuanjin's sensitive spot.

[Host, there is no other way now. You can only bite the bullet and do it. ]

"Is it possible that I have to start living in fear even before the final showdown with him?"

[Host, rest assured, I will protect you. ]

Su Mi was in a very depressed state. When Xiao Xuanjin came in, he saw her lying on the table, drawing circles on it with the pen cap.

"Are you so hungry that you can't even straighten your back?" Xiao Xuanjin joked.

Su Mi pouted, "Why are you so slow? If you were any later, I would have chewed the table."

Xiao Xuanjin chuckled, "It looks like your teeth are in good condition."

As he said this, he placed the plate in front of her. Su Mi glanced at it and saw millet porridge, tea leaf eggs, milk, pan-fried buns, beef cakes, and some stir-fried vegetables and meat.

She licked her lips and said, "I want to eat eggs."

Although he said that, he didn't move at all. He just looked at Xiao Xuanjin with tears in his eyes. His meaning was very clear: peel it for me.

Xiao Xuanjin sat down next to her and said in a low voice, "You are so lazy."

Having said that, he still picked up the egg and started peeling it.

The shattered shell fell between his slender fingers.

Su Mi rested her head on her arm and looked at him, saying very sweetly, "Thank you for your hard work, boyfriend."

He said lazily, "Do you need me to feed you?"

"That's not necessary." Su Mi sat up, took the egg from his hand and ate it in small bites.

Xiao Xuanjin looked at her puffy cheeks and put the milk in front of her with a smile, "After dinner, go to the bedroom and have a good rest. I'll go get my parents to come over."

Su Mi lowered his head, rolled his eyes, and then answered, "Oh."

"If you want to go with me, you can."

Seeing that she was not interested, Xiao Xuanjin thought it was because she was dissatisfied with being left here, so he took the initiative to suggest that they go together.

Su Mi was drinking milk. As soon as he swallowed it, he immediately said, "No, I didn't sleep last night. I'd better get some sleep."

"That's fine, I'll be back when you wake up."

"Um."

After dinner, Xiao Xuanjin set off.

Su Mi watched him leave the villa and immediately began to change his clothes.

It was the same set of clothes that I wore yesterday, and now it had been washed very clean.

After changing her clothes, she picked up her bag and prepared to leave.

The system asks [Host, don't you want to stay and meet his parents? ]

"What the hell? No matter what happens now, I will always be the bad woman who let their son down. There is really no need for such a meeting."

【Then why don't you say hello to him? 】

"You wanted me to anger him, didn't you? Now I have the chance. I must try my luck. When he comes back and sees that I'm not here, he'll be mad."
