Chapter 153 Boyfriend I have a boyfriend.
"mom?"
Yue Lingchuan answered the phone. After a moment, he frowned slightly, not knowing what the other party said.
"No time."
He spoke concisely, his brows drooping, and his hands hanging by his side fiddling with Shen Qingye's fingers, nonchalantly.
Ms. Lu Shangying said in a bad tone: "How come you don't have time? Didn't you come back for a meeting? Now the meeting is over, and you won't leave until the evening. What else do you want to say? You can't be handling a case in the province, right?"
Yue Lingchuan was helpless: "Mom..."
Lu Shangying interrupted him: "Don't tell me those nonsense! Forget about being in Pingjiang, but now you are right at the doorstep and you are still unwilling to come home? How long has it been since your father, grandfather and I have seen you?"
Yue Lingchuan opened his mouth, and Lu Shangying said, "Okay, stop talking so much. Your elder brother has specially taken time out today to come back for dinner! Your grandfather hasn't seen you for such a long time, and he has been missing you for a long time."
She muttered, "You bastard, if I don't call you, you never call home on your own initiative."
Yue Lingchuan paused in playing with Shen Qingye's fingers.
Shen Qingye looked up at him with confusion in his eyes. Yue Lingchuan looked at her, his heart suddenly moved, and he said to the person on the phone: "Got it, I'll be back soon."
Lu Shangying was satisfied and hung up the phone.
Seeing him put away his phone, Shen Qingye asked, "What's wrong?"
Yue Lingchuan looked at her, put her hand in his palm and rubbed it, and said softly: "My mother asked me to go back for dinner."
Shen Qingye said, "Haven't you eaten yet..." She was stunned: "You didn't tell your family that you were back in the provincial capital?"
Yue Lingchuan hummed sullenly: "I was planning to go back to see them after a while..." This time, the round trip only took a day.
Seeing him like this, Shen Qingye couldn't help but laugh: "It's rare for you to come back, go back and take a look."
Yue Lingchuan nodded and decided to go back.
He looked at Shen Qingye's beautiful face and suddenly said, "You——"
"Hmm?" Shen Qingye was puzzled: "Why?" She met the man's expectant gaze, and suddenly realized something in her heart, blurting out: "You don't want me to go back with you, do you?"
Yue Lingchuan curled his lips, buried his head in her neck and said nothing.
He did think so, but he also knew that they had just confirmed their relationship, and it was impossible for Shen Qingye to go back with him for both moral and logical reasons.
The man's actions were inexplicably aggrieved. Shen Qingye felt helpless for a moment. She raised her arms and hugged him, saying softly, "Okay."
She inserted her fingers into his hair and tried to reason with him: "I'm just going home to have a meal..." Why did it act like they hadn't seen each other for a long time?
Yue Lingchuan rubbed her neck with the tip of his nose, pecked her lips from time to time, and said in a muffled voice: "I'm going back, what will you do?"
Shen Qingye felt a little itchy from his actions, and also had a strange tingling sensation. She tilted her head unconsciously and laughed, "I'm such a grown-up, what else could possibly go wrong?"
"Besides, I went to college in the provincial capital, so I'm familiar with this place."
Yue Lingchuan raised his head with drooping eyebrows, obviously dissatisfied.
Shen Qingye, however, had a hard heart and scratched his hair: "Be good, go back quickly, if you delay any longer you will run out of time."
Yue Lingchuan looked at her without saying a word.
Shen Qingye paused, and strangely understood what he meant. She paused for a moment, and then her ears felt hot. She raised her head and kissed him on the lips: "Are you done?"
Yue Lingchuan then laughed and put his head against hers: "I'll be back soon."
Shen Qingye patted his head and said, "Don't worry, just come back before you leave."
Yue Lingchuan had just caught the girl and wanted to stick with her all the time. Naturally, he didn't want to listen to her. He kept pestering her, kissing and hugging her. Only after Shen Qingye drove him away did he finally leave.
Watching the man's back gradually disappear, Shen Qingye breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to touch her sore lips, her ears turned red, and she wanted to laugh.
I never thought that a man who looked so calm and sharp would become so clingy like a child after falling in love.
Falling back on the bed, thinking about everything that happened today, Shen Qingye still felt a little unbelievable.
She just... fell in love?
Pulling the quilt aside, Shen Qingye couldn't help but roll around on the bed. He looked up at the ceiling, his brows unconsciously curved.
To be honest, it feels pretty good.
·
Downtown villa area.
When Lu Shangying heard the noise outside, he immediately turned around and looked: "Is it the second brother who came back?"
Yue Jianshan put down the newspaper in his hand and said, "I'll go take a look."
The father-in-law beside him raised his eyelids and said, "What is he looking at? Could it be that he doesn't know the way home?"
Yue Jianshan paused, and Grandpa Yue glanced at his son unhappily: "You are the only one who talks too much."
The father-in-law suddenly fell silent. Seeing this, the sister-in-law of the other party couldn't help but lower her head and hide her smile.
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa!" In the short time he wasted, Yue Lingchuan had already come in, looked around the hall, and greeted them loudly: "Big brother and sister-in-law are here too."
Yue Jianshan smiled and said, "I came back just to see you. You're a busy man."
Yue Lingchuan said: "Compared to Big Brother, how can I be considered a busy man?"
The father-in-law snorted: "You know what you are doing."
"That's enough!" Grandpa Yue glared at him: "It's rare for Lingchuan to come back."
He looked at his grandson, and his usually serious face softened a little: "The meal is ready, we are just waiting for you."
Yue Lingchuan took a step forward and supported the old man: "Grandpa still loves me."
Lu Shangying at the side couldn't help but ask, "You know that grandpa loves you, but why don't you come back more often? If I hadn't called you this time, would you have just left like that?"
"It's only an hour away from my workplace, but you don't even want to go home to visit?"
Yue Lingchuan helped his grandfather sit down and said, "Really, I've been a little busy lately. I was planning to come back to accompany you after two days of vacation."
Lu Shangying snorted, "You're so busy that you don't even have time to come back for a meal? Your home is less than an hour's drive from your workplace. It's fine if you're in Pingjiang, but now you're in the provincial capital, what? Do you still have cases that need your attention?"
"No." Yue Lingchuan said, "I'm not busy with work."
Lu Shangying asked, "If you're not busy with work, what else can you do?"
Yue Lingchuan said in a leisurely tone, with some obvious boasting: "I'm busy dating."
After these words were spoken, everyone paused in their action of picking up dishes, and even the old man had a look of surprise on his face.
Sister-in-law Yue was surprised and asked, "Is Lingchuan in love?"
Lu Shangying's eyes widened, and then he quickly realized: "Is it the girl from the Shen family?"
Yue Lingchuan put down his chopsticks, leaned back in his chair, and said with an indescribably smug attitude: "Yes."
"Oh my, oh my!" Lu Shangying was so happy that she didn't know what to say. She quickly stood up and went to her youngest son: "When did this happen? Why haven't you told me about it?"
The father-in-law also spoke up: "Since you are in love, why don't you bring the girl back to see?"
Yue Lingchuan said happily: "It was just decided this morning, so the time is still short. I want to bring her back, but aren't you afraid of making her shy?"
"Oh, this is really, really..."
Lu Shangying clapped his hands and the smile on his face never left.
The eldest son is different from the younger son. Although he got married late, he had had two relationships before, and they were all under his nose. It’s not that he doesn’t want to get married, but he just hasn’t met the right one. Lu Shangying is not particularly worried. But the youngest son is different. Yue Lingchuan doesn’t seem to have that kind of idea. From childhood to adulthood, he has never been interested in any girl. In addition, his job is special and he is outside, so they can't easily reach him. They are really worried that he will stay alone like this forever.
When she went to Pingjiang before, although she saw that her son had feelings for the girl, perhaps because so many years had passed, Lu Shangying really didn't dare to have too high expectations. She even thought that it was still a question whether her silly son could get what he wanted, and she was thinking whether she should teach him a lesson after a while...
As a result, after just a short while of not seeing each other, he gave her such a big surprise. How could she not be happy?
"You kid, you are such a fool. If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have asked you to come back. You just confirmed your relationship and you left the girl aside... Where are you staying now? A hotel? Is she alone?"
Lu Shangying was in a panic and overjoyed.
Yue Lingchuan embraced his mother and said with a smile: "Don't worry, she went to college here and is familiar with the place. My teammates are here too, it's okay."
Lu Shangying kept saying "yes, yes, yes", and even his father-in-law looked a little better. He said in a deep voice: "You are old now, and it is rare for you to fall in love, so just have a good relationship. Spend more time with the girl, and don't be busy with work all day. Then she will think you don't value her and will be unhappy..."
Lu Shangying rarely disagreed with his father-in-law this time, and said, "Yes, that's right. When you are in love, it's different from when you are alone. You have to take care of the girl more, spend more time with her, and be willing to spend money when you go out, so as not to let others laugh at you..."
If it was a boy from another family, just having a relationship, they would be happy, but it wouldn't be to the extent that their family would take it seriously. After all, it’s still uncertain what the future will be like. It’s not like in ancient times where you can just talk about one relationship and it’ll be settled. But Lu Shangying knew her son. He was so moved and obsessed with it this time. If nothing unexpected happened, it would probably be her.
She was also really worried that her son had never been in a relationship and was not good at speaking. If he made a girl unhappy, he would be the one who was sad in the end, so she gave him such earnest advice.
Yue Lingchuan smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore."
Grandpa Yue was watching from the side and also said, "He's almost 30. If he can't figure out a relationship, then he's lived all these years in vain."
As he spoke, he could not help asking, "Let's not talk about that anymore. Who is this girl? What's her name? How old is she this year? What does she do?"
Yue Lingchuan explained to his grandfather in detail: "Her name is Qingye, Shen Qingye. My father probably knows that she is the daughter of Chairman Chen Linyue Chen. She is 23 years old and just graduated from college last year. Now, like me, she is a criminal police officer in the Municipal Bureau."
When these words were spoken, everyone except Lu Shangying was shocked.
"A female criminal police officer?" Mrs. Yue asked in surprise.
The father-in-law frowned: "A criminal police officer too?"
He had just heard the first half of the sentence and still had some impression of Shen Linyue, thinking that the girl was also doing business with her mother, but he ended up saying "criminal police..."
Grandpa Yue was also a little surprised, but then he thought again, his grandson had such a temper that ordinary girls would not be interested in him. It was rare for him to find a partner, so it didn't seem strange that he was a colleague.
"Both of them are criminal police..." The father-in-law said with some disapproval. He didn't agree with his son becoming a criminal police in the first place, and now his future daughter-in-law is also a criminal police...
Lu Shangying said, "Hey, what's wrong with being a criminal police officer? We all work together and can take care of each other."
Before, she might have wanted her son to find a girl with a stable and easy job, but after so many years, she no longer expects anything else, as long as it's a girl!
The father-in-law grumbled, "When you get married, the couple will be busier than each other, and there won't even be anyone to take care of the family..."
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingchuan just smiled and said nothing, obviously having made up his mind.
Grandpa Yue looked at him for a long while before saying, "Young people are always busy. Instead of looking for someone who is busy in a different place, it's better to look for someone who works in the same unit. At least you can see him from time to time."
He glanced at his son and said, "You and Shangying are not police officers. When you were young, you should not have met them, right? Didn't Jianshan and Lingchuan grow up under my command?"
My father-in-law didn't say anything, mainly because it was useless for him to say anything.
He is very powerful outside, but at home, no one, whether old or young, listens to him.
"I didn't say anything..."
He said helplessly: "I know Director Shen, he is a good person and has business skills, and his daughter must be no bad either."
He ate his meal in silence: "If you want to talk, then talk. Let's talk properly."
Mrs. Yue and her husband looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"Yes, let's talk about it and see if we can bring the girl home to see her during the Chinese New Year." She smiled and said, "You are not a child anymore. Our mother has been worried about you for many years. Let's see if we can make her happy in the next two years."
Yue Lingchuan said generously: "Then I have to fight for it."
The whole family was laughing and the dinner table was full of joy. After dinner, Yue Lingchuan accompanied the old man to the study and talked for a while as usual, and did not come out until his usual lunch break.
After coming out, he didn't rush back. He sat in the living room and chatted with his parents, brothers and sisters-in-law for a while. It was not until three o'clock that he suggested leaving.
Although Lu Shangying was still reluctant to let him go, she was finally relieved and happy this time. She kept telling him to get along well with his partner and said a lot of things. Only after getting his promise did she let him go.
......
When Yue Lingchuan returned to the hotel, it was almost four o'clock. He stood outside Shen Qingye's door, raised his hand to knock, but was worried that she might be resting and afraid of disturbing her, so he turned around and went back to his room.
After packing up everything, he played idly for a while. When it was time to leave, he knocked on Shen Qingye's door.
Shen Qingye also had a vague premonition. Half asleep and half awake, she was awakened by a knock on the door. When she opened the door, she saw Yue Lingchuan as expected.
The man smiled at her, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and his eyes fell on her face without error. Shen Qingye's hand holding the door tightened, but when she heard Wei Zhengyi's shouting outside, she didn't do anything, but lowered her eyes: "I'll pack it up right away."
The girl had just woken up, her hair was still a little messy, and she looked very different from usual. Yue Lingchuan was originally itching to do it, but since his colleagues were all there, he couldn't do anything. He could only hmm with a dry throat.
After everything was packed up, the group naturally set off on their return journey. The car was as lively as usual, with Wei Zhengyi and Luo Kaiyang making a lot of noise. Shen Qingye just smiled, and her eyes accidentally met Yue Lingchuan through the rearview mirror, then she looked away very naturally. It seemed that there was nothing unusual.
It's not that the two of them wanted to hide it on purpose, but it would feel a little strange to suddenly tell them that we were together. Besides, they were superiors after all, so they just got along naturally. As for whether they could see it... it all depended on them.
It was already past six o'clock when we returned to Pingjiang. We didn't stay in the team for long and went straight back to our homes.
Yue Lingchuan still wanted to send her back.
The cars stopped outside the villa one after another. Shen Qingye hooked his palm and smiled helplessly: "Let's go."
Yue Lingchuan clenched his fingers, then reluctantly let go and said, "I'll come to see you tomorrow?" Tomorrow is Saturday.
Shen Qingye paused: "I'm afraid not."
She smiled: "I have to go to Uncle Gao's house for dinner tomorrow."
Yue Lingchuan's face fell a little more, and he said reluctantly: "Then the day after tomorrow? The day after tomorrow will be fine, right?"
Seeing how clingy he was, Shen Qingye's smile deepened, and she finally said yes.
Yue Lingchuan was barely satisfied then. He lowered his head and hugged her again, refusing to let go.
Shen Qingye stayed with him for a while before they finally separated.
·
After entering the house, only Aunt Chen was cooking in the kitchen, and Shen Linyue had not returned yet.
Shen Qingye went upstairs to wash and change into home clothes, thinking about what happened today and then thinking about Shen Linyue. He felt that he could tell his colleagues or not, but he could not hide it from his mother.
So, when Shen Linyue came back, she saw Shen Qingye smiling and approaching her attentively and flatteringly:
"Mom~"
Shen Linyue paused, frowned slightly, and looked her up and down: "Are you possessed?"
The smile on Shen Qingye's face froze: "What?"
"Your attitude is wrong at first glance." Shen Linyue threw her bag on the sofa, crossed her arms, and glanced at her: "Tell me, what's going on?"
Shen Qingye was dissatisfied: "Can't I just miss you?"
"Oh." Shen Linyue looked surprised: "I was working on a case and didn't come back for a few days. I missed you. Now I've been out for a day, and you miss me?"
Shen Qingye was speechless for a moment.
She hummed and rubbed against her mother, raised her hands to hold her, blinked her eyes, and whispered: "It's... not a big deal."
Shen Linyue looked at her leisurely.
Shen Qingye said: "I have a boyfriend."
