Chapter 103 Rooftop
Liu Yu looked at Zhou Cheng playfully: "I remember there was a saying in the past. Oh, that ugly...ugly daughter-in-law is bound to meet her parents-in-law. As an ugly daughter-in-law, it's time for me to meet my parents-in-law."
Zhou Cheng couldn't help laughing: "My Ah Yu is not ugly. If my parents saw you, they would definitely laugh until their teeth were exposed."
“Thank you for the compliment, mua~”
After some laughter, Zhou Cheng thought about it and felt that he couldn't take the risk.
Not to mention whether I am willing to take the risk, it is impossible for the decision makers to agree to let me leave.
After careful consideration, the idea of bringing my parents over from the settlement in Dali County was also dismissed.
They are old and in poor health. Now it is their twilight years and transportation is not as convenient as it was in their heyday, so they can't bear the hassle.
After much thought, I decided that it would be more appropriate to let Liu Yu go back on my behalf.
Having made up his mind, Zhou Cheng dialed the phone.
This time it was a video call. Liu Yu was already dressed and standing next to Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng felt a pang of sadness when he saw his parents, who looked significantly older than the last time they met, in the video. Suppressing the feeling, he smiled, "Mom and Dad, look! This is your daughter-in-law."
Liu Yu was a little nervous and shy: "Hello uncle, hello auntie."
"Oh, good, good, this girl is really pretty."
"Mom and Dad, I'm too busy at work and can't ask for leave. Why don't you let Liu Yu go back for me?"
When Liu Lijuan and Zhou Dahu saw Liu Yu, their eyes narrowed with smiles: "Xiaoyu is back? Great, great."
The next morning, Zhou Cheng and Liu Yu arrived at the gate of the World Government compound.
An off-road vehicle loaded with supplies and weapons was already parked there.
"The car is in excellent condition. We've got a full ton of fuel. The communication system has just been updated, so you can contact us even if you're on the other side of the world. As for weapons, we've got three guns, over a thousand rounds of ammunition, a machete, and a dagger. Don't worry, drive it, there's absolutely no problem."
The delivery driver patted the car and made a guarantee with full confidence.
"Okay then, let's go."
After waving goodbye to Zhou Cheng, Liu Yu got into the car and drove away.
Zhou Cheng still stayed where he was, looking reluctantly at the direction where the car disappeared, refusing to look away for a long time.
Beside him, Wei Ning teased again, "They've all gone far away. We can't see them anymore."
"You know shit."
Zhou Cheng snorted and turned away.
Wei Ning wasn't annoyed, he just sighed: "Look at this guy, why can't he get over it?"
After setting the car to intelligent driving mode, Liu Yu looked at the desolate land outside the window and began to feel a little nervous again.
Liu Yu drove on until it was almost dark, then he stopped the car in a safe place to rest. The next day, the day after, and until the afternoon, the somewhat dilapidated gate of the Dali County settlement finally appeared before Liu Yu's eyes.
The door was open, and a row of elderly people stood in front of him. Slightly calming his nervous thoughts, Liu Yu put on a smile, picked up the gift he had prepared long ago, pushed open the car door and got out.
"Uncle, aunt, grandpa, aunt, hello, I'm Liu Yu, Ah Cheng's girlfriend."
"Ah Cheng is so lucky, this girl is so pretty."
"That's right, you can tell at a glance that he knows how to care for others."
"Lijuan, Dahu, can you two rest assured now?"
Liu Lijuan and Zhou Dahu came over quickly and took the gift from Liu Yu, saying, "Girl, just come and bring so many things with you."
"You must be tired after driving all this way here. Come home quickly. Auntie will make you something delicious."
A group of people returned to the settlement in a lively manner and came to Zhou Cheng's home.
Looking at the home, which was simple yet full of warmth, Liu Yu was filled with emotion: "Is this where Ah Cheng grew up?"
Liu Lijuan and Zhou Dahu were very warm and concerned about Liu Yu's well-being. As a result, Liu Yu's slightly nervous mood gradually relaxed.
"Uncle and aunt seem very satisfied with me. Humph, I knew it. I'm such a good girl, who would be dissatisfied with me?"
Liu Lijuan and Zhou Dahu went to the kitchen together to prepare dinner. Liu Yu couldn't sit still, so he joined them in the kitchen despite their objections.
The three of them worked together, cooperating with each other, and laughter could be heard from time to time as they chatted.
During dinner, Liu Yu made a video call to Zhou Cheng. The four of them spent the dinner time happily and relaxedly, as if they were really together.
The next day, many neighbors came to visit Zhou Cheng's house for various reasons, such as borrowing a screwdriver or asking questions. But Liu Yu knew that their real purpose was to visit him.
Facing so many relatives, friends and neighbors, Liu Yu truly acted like a well-educated, warm and polite lady, winning unanimous praise from everyone.
The third day was Liu Lijuan's birthday.
On this day, Liu Yu got up early and started making cakes with the ingredients he brought with him. The old couple went to the kitchen again and started busying themselves.
At noon, a sumptuous birthday banquet was placed on the table.
Looking at the word "Shou" written by Liu Yu himself on the big cake in the middle of the dining table, Liu Lijuan couldn't help but tear up.
"Xiaoyu, your uncle and I are both old and won't live long. Now that we see that Ah Cheng has a good wife like you, we old couple can rest assured."
Liu Yu quickly said, "Auntie, what are you talking about? You and uncle are in such good health, you will definitely live a long life."
Zhou Dahu sighed and said, "A hundred years... who in this world can really live to be a hundred years old?
Xiaoyu, we old couple have no other wishes, we just hope that you two can live a good and stable life. "
"Yes, uncle, don't worry, Ah Cheng and I will be fine. You and Auntie can see it."
Liu Lijuan shook her head: "We won't see that day..."
The atmosphere seemed a little strange. Liu Lijuan and Zhou Dahu's words also made Liu Yu feel a little confused.
But she didn't think much about it. After a few words, Liu Yu changed the subject and took out her phone and dialed Zhou Cheng's number again: "Ah Cheng, look, Auntie is going to blow out the candles!"
In the picture, Zhou Cheng's face was full of smiles: "Happy birthday, Mom."
"Good, good, happy."
Liu Lijuan smiled kindly and blew out the candles on the cake in one breath.
After the birthday banquet, Liu Yu accompanied the old couple for a walk in the cradle and listened to them chattering about Zhou Cheng's childhood stories.
It was finally night. Lying on the bed, Liu Yu finally relaxed.
"I should go back tomorrow..."
Liu Yu fell asleep while thinking in a daze.
In the middle of the night, Liu Yu was suddenly awakened by a ringing phone. When he picked up his phone, he saw that the caller was Liu Lijuan.
"What's going on?"
Liu Yu was full of doubts, but still answered the call.
Liu Lijuan's voice came from the microphone: "Xiaoyu, Auntie has something to tell you. Please come to the top floor."
