Chapter 162 Parents of Both Parties Meet
The day when both parents meet.
Commander Fu dug out the suit he wore for his wedding and his respectable military uniform from his wardrobe early in the morning, holding one in each hand. His usually serious face looked very dignified, but the look he gave his wife was particularly gentle. He asked hesitantly for help:
"Which one should I wear today?"
Mrs. Fu was powdering herself. She glanced at him and pointed at the suit with her slender finger.
"Wear this. The military uniform is too oppressive. My in-laws will probably think you're showing off how powerful we soldiers are."
Before anything was decided, Mrs. Fu called her in-laws.
Commander Fu nodded obediently, put the military uniform into the closet, and began to put on his suit. He had already put on his pants and was tying his shirt and tie when Mrs. Fu stopped drawing her eyebrows, turned around and changed her mind.
"Why don't you wear a military uniform? If your in-laws disagree, you can use that to intimidate them into handing over their daughter."
The diplomat, who always valued peace when traveling abroad, told her husband this, feeling quite farsighted. He nodded in agreement, "We soldiers still need some strength."
"oh."
Commander Fu obeyed obediently, put on a serious face, and began to take off his pants and change into his military uniform.
It’s no wonder that Mrs. Fu is worried. The opponent should not be underestimated.
They knew that Lin Shuwan had a special background and had stayed in Yancheng for twenty years before returning to the Lin family, but they never expected that he would be from the Cheng family of Yancheng!
Mrs. Fu's hands were shaking as she applied lipstick, and she almost smeared it. Looking in the mirror at her husband who had already put on his military uniform and was trying to pin a few honor badges on it, Mrs. Fu half-persuaded and half-warned him.
"We'll meet soon. Please be less talkative and try to go along with what the other person is saying. Don't argue, okay?"
"knew."
Commander Fu frowned, sounding a little unconvinced. "Ever since we met, you've been nagging me about this every day."
Madam Fu rolled her eyes at him. "I'm just afraid you'll ruin my son's marriage! Do you want your son to be stuck in your hands his whole life? I was so lucky in my past life that that brat met Wanwan. Your family's ancestors will be filled with joy in this life!"
Commander Fu didn't dare to talk back in front of his wife. He listened to "my son" and "your son" and emphasized in a low voice, "Our son!"
Mrs. Fu is like this. If something good happens, she calls it "my son" and if something bad happens, she calls it "your son." She never admits her failures. Instead of wasting her energy on herself, she would rather blame others.
As the boy's parents, the Fu family arrived at the reserved restaurant first. Fu Yanci was waiting for Lin Shuwan at the door. He had just sent him a message saying that he would be arriving soon.
Lin Shuwan wore a simple and elegant skirt today and had her hair styled in a new Chinese side ponytail. She exuded a gentle and quiet aura.
Fu Yanci wanted to get close to his girlfriend when he saw her, but because Cheng's parents were there, he had to hold back and walked forward to nod and say hello.
"Uncle and aunt, my parents are here. Please come this way."
Although the Cheng family and the Fu family are in two different cities, both Cheng's father and Commander Fu are high-ranking officials. They often meet at central meetings, so they are not strangers.
After entering the box, Mrs. Fu was the first to stand up to greet them and greeted the Cheng couple with a smile.
Mrs. Cheng shook hands enthusiastically, but when she looked at Commander Fu, her enthusiasm was greatly reduced, and her eyes were filled with undisguised disdain.
Commander Fu's expression was no less serious. He looked serious to begin with, and now it was even more sour. After being nudged by his wife with her arm, he forced a smile that was uglier than crying and extended his hand.
As a result, Mrs. Cheng seemed not to see it, and the hand hung awkwardly in the air. However, Father Cheng's smile was helpless and doting, unlike the serious and rigid one in front of outsiders, and he held Commander Fu's hand.
"Ye Qing, long time no see."
Lin Shuwan and Fu Yanci followed behind, feeling that the atmosphere seemed a little off, and sat down on the chairs with doubts.
Fu Yanci was obviously even more frightened.
What's going on?
Is the Cheng family dissatisfied?
No way! No matter what, Lin Shuwan can only be his, he must marry her home! This is a result that no one can change.
But what's the dissatisfaction?
Are you dissatisfied with the restaurant? Don’t like the food?
Fu Yanci looked around secretly. It was high-end, classy and could be considered the most exclusive restaurant in Hai City. Besides, Cheng's parents were not the kind of people who cared about such formalities.
He was fine just now, but his expression changed after he entered the box.
Fu Yanci observed silently. His mother and Mrs. Cheng were chatting animatedly. Normally, they should be praising their own children, but they were both praising Lin Shuwan, and he seemed to be non-existent.
Thinking of the scene he saw when he entered the room just now, Fu Yanci half-closed his eyes. It could only be -
His father!
What had his father done to make Mrs. Cheng so unhappy? Wouldn't it affect his love life? The kitten he had been thinking about for so many years couldn't run away!
Fu Yanci thought unfilially, could he let his father leave temporarily?
On the other side, the diplomat lady used all her life's knowledge, had first-class rhetoric and high emotional intelligence, and treated this meeting as a rigorous national negotiation. She expressed herself logically and spoke wisely, with both grace and power, showing extraordinary wisdom and calm demeanor, which made Mrs. Cheng very happy.
Mrs. Fu thought that this would be the most important negotiation in her life, which could be called the battle to marry her daughter-in-law!
"You've really nurtured Wanwan into a brilliant young woman. She's so promising and intelligent. How many girls these days can start such a successful company at such a young age?"
"She's so beautiful, has a good personality, is modest but not cowardly, and neither humble nor overbearing. He must have been blessed for eight lifetimes to be able to fall for our Yan Ci."
Mrs. Fu's words were full of love for Lin Shuwan and disgust for her own son. These words were spoken with full of emotion, without a trace of skill.
Mrs. Cheng was happy that her daughter was recognized, but she also knew that reciprocity was the key, and she really liked Fu Yanci.
"Your son is also very outstanding, handsome, successful in his career, and most importantly, he is loyal and deeply affectionate to Wanwan." This is why Mrs. Cheng likes Fu Yanci.
She doesn't care about his background or his appearance, she only cares about him because he is good to her daughter and can make her happy.
Because her daughter likes it, she likes it too.
There is no doubt that he is loyal. Fu Yanci has been a chaste man since childhood and has never had any affairs. Four years ago, he fell in love with Lin Shuwan at first sight and has loved her ever since.
Mrs. Fu also acknowledged this and praised him, "It's a family tradition. The men in the Fu family are loyal and affectionate."
This sentence brought the topic to Commander Fu. Mrs. Cheng subconsciously curled her lips. The dinner table suddenly became quiet and the atmosphere became weird.
Lin Shuwan was confused. What was going on? He looked left at Madam Cheng, then right at Commander Fu.
Father Cheng laughed and patted Commander Fu on the shoulder, feeling like a friend cherishing each other.
"Ye Qing, she's still mad at you for rejecting A Lan."
What? !
Lin Shuwan and Fu Yanci subconsciously looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
His father and her mother had a relationship???
Mrs. Cheng slammed the table and emphasized, "What do you mean he rejected me?! I rejected him!"
