Chapter 251: Tolerant to the Rich, Harsh to the Ordinary
In fact, Li Xiao was under a lot of pressure because there was a four-year age difference between them and they were teacher and student.
She grew up in a traditional family. Her father was a policeman and her mother was a teacher. Both of them had old-fashioned and conservative ideas. In their eyes, falling in love with a student was definitely an extraordinary behavior.
Li Xiao's initial plan was to proceed step by step, first letting his parents know Shen Yuan, then slowly accepting him, and finally liking him.
Of course, this is the most ideal situation. It is very likely that her parents will oppose it from the beginning, so she is also prepared for a protracted battle.
Li Xiao was deeply touched that Shen Yuan could stand up and share her burden at this moment, and she also felt Shen Yuan's responsibility as a boy.
The image of Shen Yuan in her mind is quite diverse. When joking or having sex, he is like a naughty student.
And when it comes to serious matters, such as the previous entrepreneurial base, the recent confrontation with Xu Shoutai, and now facing her parents, Shen Yuan shows the courage and responsibility that a boy should have.
Perhaps it is precisely this multifaceted image that makes up the Shen Yuan I like.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoqing couldn't help but put her arms around him, snuggled in his arms and murmured, "Chen Yuan, I don't know what to say."
"What needs to be said? Given our relationship, this is what I should do."
Shen Yuan smiled and gently stroked Li Xiao's back to comfort him, and at this moment, he noticed the change in his favorability.
[Favorability: 86]
It increased by 1 point. It was still 85 after the class last night, and now it has increased a little more. It looks like it will reach 90 points soon.
Li Xiao cuddled in Shen Yuan's arms for a long time before she raised her beautiful eyes and said, "Then I'll go talk to them first, and then I'll take you out to see them, okay?"
"Okay, go ahead."
Shen Yuan patted her buttocks through her jeans, causing her pretty face to blush.
In the living room, Li's mother, Lu Zhen, was still asking about her eldest daughter's boyfriend: "Mengmeng, do you know what Xiaoxiao's boyfriend does for a living?"
Before coming, Lu Zhen asked his eldest daughter Li Xiao, but she was very tight-lipped and didn't reveal anything. The information she had was very limited, so before meeting, Lu Zhen had to find out some details about his future son-in-law through Li Meng.
When Li Shenghua heard her ask this, he pretended to drink his tea nonchalantly, but actually pricked up his ears.
"Student." Li Meng replied indifferently.
"student?"
Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment, then immediately widened his eyes in surprise: "Mengmeng, you must be kidding."
Li Shenghua's hand holding the teacup trembled, and he felt uneasy. Is it appropriate for a teacher and a student to be in love?
"I'm not kidding, he is indeed a student." Li Meng told the truth.
Lu Zhen frowned. "It's against the rules to begin with, and younger boys won't be kind. Besides, he hasn't even graduated yet, so how can he afford it?"
Li Shenghua also frowned, thinking that this was not right. Xiaoxiao has always been conservative, so why would she fall in love with a boy who is a few years younger than her?
Li Meng knew her parents' concerns and was about to explain further, but then Li Xiao came out.
Lu Zhen quickly pulled her to sit down and said worriedly, "Xiaoxiao, are you dating your student?"
Li Xiao smiled awkwardly: "You all know it already. I was just about to tell you."
“It seems to be true.”
Lu Zhen sighed heavily, then said earnestly, "Xiaoxiao, do you know what it means to date a student? First, there's a significant age gap between you two, and your perspectives and education are different. Secondly, boys these days mature late. Do you think you'll have to take care of him in the future?"
"The most important thing is that you don't have the financial means. You work at a university and your income isn't that high, and he still has to graduate before he can start working. So when will you be able to buy a car and a house? Also, do you know how much it costs to raise a child these days?"
As Lu Zhen spoke, he became more and more excited, and his voice became uncontrollable.
As a mother, who doesn’t want her daughter to live a good life?
Li Shenghua standing by was also in mixed feelings. He had thought that his juicy cabbages would be eaten by pigs sooner or later, but he didn't expect that they would be eaten by a pig that had not yet been slaughtered.
Is this reasonable?
Li Xiao was completely bewildered by this series of questions, but Li Meng, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened: "Mom, I don't think you need to worry about this."
"What do you know?"
Lu Zhen retorted angrily.
"Of course I understand."
Li Meng said confidently: "Although I am a student, it doesn't mean I am short of money. You know how rich I am."
Lu Zhen turned around and asked doubtfully, "Is his family rich?"
Before Li Meng could answer, Lu Zhen asked herself, "Even if your family is rich, you still have to think twice. Some wealthy families are very snobbish. I'm also worried that Xiaoxiao will be wronged if she marries him."
Being a student and having money, he must be a second-generation rich. Li Shenghua frowned and took a sip of hot tea:
"That's right. Although our family isn't wealthy, we don't need our daughter to marry for money. Besides, many second-generation rich kids are prodigals with neither ability nor character. So, Xiaoxiao, you have to keep your eyes open."
"Mom and Dad, it's not what you think."
Li Xiao came to his senses and explained: "He was indeed a rich second generation before."
Lu Zhen was even more displeased when he heard this: "The family is bankrupt? That's even worse!"
"No, just listen to me first."
Li Xiao pressed his hand and continued, "His family did go bankrupt, but he made money from BT coins and foreign exchange. He recently opened a new company. He now has his own house and car, and he even bought me a car two days ago."
"Um?"
Lu Zhen was stunned. This seemed a little different from what she had expected.
Is it possible for a college student to be so outstanding?
"What car did you buy?"
Li Shenghua was more steady. After sorting out the whole story, he found the key point. If he was really as outstanding as Xiaoxiao said, he should not be stingy with money. He should at least buy his daughter a car worth three or four hundred thousand, right?
"Porsche Cayenne, 1.03 million."
Li Meng answered quickly and took out the car purchase contract from the drawer of the coffee table.
"1.03 million?"
Li Shenghua's eyelids jumped. He lost his composure when he heard the number and quickly picked up the contract to confirm.
Payment method: Full payment
Landing all-inclusive price: 1.03 million
It really is a 1.03 million Cayenne
Although he and Lu Zhen have decent jobs, their income is not high. Their combined annual income does not exceed 300,000 yuan.
And this is just income. Considering daily expenses and mortgage, it would be good if they can save 100,000 yuan a year. Asking them to spend more than 1 million yuan to buy a car is nothing but a pipe dream.
And my daughter’s boyfriend spent 1.03 million right away?
"Let me see."
Lu Zhen took out his glasses from his backpack and put them on. He adjusted the frames and looked at the car purchase contract intently as if he was correcting homework.
"This old Li is really 1.03 million!"
Lu Zhen resisted the urge to swallow his saliva. Although he was a teacher, he had never seen so much money.
Li Meng looked at the wonderful changes in her parents' expressions and felt inexplicably happy.
My parents were clearly frowning and looking gloomy just now, but now when they saw the 1.03 million car purchase contract, they immediately became excited and couldn't contain their excitement.
So this is the power of money?
Li Meng said seriously, "Mom and Dad, I object to this marriage!"
"So what if he's rich? I think this won't work. Besides, my brother-in-law is too young and won't be able to show affection."
"Hey, stop talking nonsense! It's not your place to object here."
Li Shenghua quickly waved his hands: "Being young doesn't mean you can't be affectionate. As for... it was indeed too outrageous when we were in school, but what era is it now? Are we going to deny a couple just because of their age and relationship?"
Li Meng snorted expressionlessly, "Hehe". She now had a deeper understanding of double standards.
As expected, the world has not changed at all. It is always tolerant to the rich and harsh to ordinary people, even parents are no exception.
"Xiaoxiao, when will your boyfriend come over?"
Lu Zhen is now looking forward to meeting her. Since her financial conditions are so good, she can relax her requirements in other aspects.
"Forehead"
Speaking of this, Li Xiao was a little embarrassed to speak, because Shen Yuan was in her room.
Seeing Li Xiao's hesitation, Lu Zhen asked, "Is your boyfriend too busy to come over today?"
"That's not the case."
"What is that?" Lu Zhen asked.
Li Shenghua was looking out the window, and now he turned his gaze to his daughter.
Li Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed in the direction of the bedroom: "Actually, he is in my bedroom."
In the room?!
Li Shenghua's heart sank. Was his daughter already living with her boyfriend?
Lu Zhen didn't think it was a big deal: "Is that so? Why didn't you tell him earlier and ask him to come out?"
"Okay, I'll go now."
After Li Xiao said this, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his parents' expressions, and saw nothing unusual, so he stood up.
Li Shenghua was heartbroken. The cabbage he had raised for more than 20 years was eaten by a pig?
People who don’t have a daughter will definitely not understand his feelings, especially a daughter-slave like Lao Li, whose daughter is his life.
Li Xiao has been very considerate since childhood and has always been his little cotton-padded jacket.
Although I was mentally prepared, my heart still ached when I knew the truth.
Li Shenghua quietly got up and walked to the balcony, took out a Huang Furong King cigarette, lit one for himself, and took a big puff.
Shen Yuan and Li Xiao walked out of the bedroom and greeted them with a smile: "Uncle and aunt, hello, my name is Shen Yuan."
Lu Zhen looked at Shen Yuan for a few times and said with emotion: "Hello, Shen Yuan, you are really a handsome man."
Li Shenghua turned around and saw Shen Yuan's appearance. He was handsome, tall, and had signs of fitness. He felt much better immediately.
"No way."
Shen Yuan smiled modestly: "Auntie, how many days will you be here this time?"
"I'll spend two or three days in Xingcheng, and I'm also planning to go to Jiangcheng."
Lu Zhen said with a kind look.
It is said that the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. Lu Zhen also experienced this mentality for the first time.
He is tall and handsome, can make money, and from the way he speaks he has a good personality. It would be really good for Xiaoxiao to be with a man like this.
For a moment, all the shortcomings that Lu Zhen had just thought of, such as "young age", "sensible", and "late maturity", were thrown out of his mind, and he only thought of the advantages of his future son-in-law.
"Li Xiao happens to be on summer vacation, so I have time to play with you guys. There are many scenic spots in Xingcheng, such as the lush green Yuelu Mountain, Orange Island where you can pay homage to the great man, Tianxin Pavilion, Huangxing Road, and the Mawangdui Han Tomb Ruins. These are all worth visiting."
Shen Yuan introduced the tourist attractions to Lu Zhen one by one, and then whispered a few words to Li Xiao.
Li Xiao was slightly stunned after hearing this, then nodded with emotion.
Lu Zhen didn't know what they were whispering about, but she didn't dare to ask too much.
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Li Meng was about to get up to open the door, but unexpectedly, Shen Yuan stood up and said, "It should be me."
Li Meng was still a little puzzled. This is the house my sister and I rented. How could it be for you?
Shen Yuan opened the door and it was Fu Yingzi outside. Beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead and her two slender arms were carrying two large bags, looking overwhelmed.
"Boss, I've bought everything according to your requirements." Fu Yingzi worked hard to hand over the two bags.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Shen Yuan took over the two large bags.
He made a list last night and sent it to Fu Yingzi, and the dedicated secretary got up early to go shopping.
When she was about to turn around and leave, Fu Yingzi accidentally saw the person inside through the crack in the door.
Teacher Li?
This, this, this. Fu Yingzi immediately combined the two bags of things and came to a conclusion.
Shocking news, Teacher Li has also been taken into the boss’ harem!
