"This..." Zhou Mo hesitated and looked at Han Chen.
"It's not like I haven't lived here before," Han Chen said.
Zhou Mo: “…”
Liang Xinyun glared at Han Chen: "Momo is a girl, you have to be more reserved, do you understand?"
This time it was Han Chen's turn to be speechless.
Liang Xinyun smiled and said to Zhou Mo, "Stay here. This is not some other place."
Zhou Mo nodded, "Yeah."
Liang Xinyun's eyebrows lit up with joy. "I'll go find some clothes for you and pack your toiletries later."
"No need, Mom," Han Chen said, "I brought it to her last time."
Liang Xinyun was surprised, "It seems you have planned this long ago."
Then she warned, "Be careful not to let your Uncle Zhou and Aunt Liu know. They are both traditional people. You might end up with a broken leg like Yu Yizhou."
Han Chen touched his nose awkwardly and whispered, "Isn't it okay if we don't let them know?"
Liang Xinyun couldn't help but slap Han Chen, "Behave yourself this time. Don't lead Momo astray like you did in high school, forcing her to date at such a young age. Luckily, it didn't affect Momo's grades. Otherwise, when we lived in Yuanshang, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to leave the house."
Han Chen didn't care. "As long as you don't leak the secret, no one will know. Besides, didn't you do a good job of keeping it secret for us in the past?"
Liang Xinyun was speechless for a moment.
She suddenly remembered how Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy when they found out that Zhou Mo was dating.
And she was responsible for covering for Han Chen.
At that time, two parents, three people, met in the class teacher's office.
Zhou Zheng, who was usually polite and courteous, was extremely anxious. When he saw her, he didn't even say hello. He came up to her and asked, "What's going on? Aren't they going to and from school together? How come they are a couple?"
Liu Xiangru was even more ruthless, saying, "We must find out who started this idea in the first place. You're so young, and your mind isn't focused on studying. Don't you know you have a big exam coming up? If you don't work hard now, how are you going to get into a good university or find a good job in the future? Especially Momo, your grades are still so unstable."
Zhou Zheng's expression was unusually serious and ugly.
After the teacher explained the whole story, it was said that Han Chen took the initiative to pursue Zhou Mo, but Zhou Mo did not agree. Now the two are just friends and nothing has developed. The teacher also suggested that the parents of both families should have less contact between their children in the future.
Liu Xiangru was embarrassed: "The two children are neighbors, how can they have less contact?"
Liang Xinyun said, "It's okay. I'll talk to Han Chen and pass on your opinions to him. Now is indeed a critical period for learning. The child is old enough, and if you talk things through, he will be able to make sense."
Liu Xiangru sighed, "What's wrong with Momo? She used to live across from that guy every day, and we never mentioned being in a relationship. Why is she becoming more disobedient as the college entrance exam approaches?"
Zhou Zheng also said seriously: "I must ask carefully when I get back."
Seeing that the Zhou couple were very dissatisfied with this matter, Liang Xinyun was afraid that they would embarrass Zhou Mo when they returned, so she quickly tried to comfort them, saying, "Momo is usually a very well-behaved child. She probably wouldn't have thought of this. It must be Han Chen, who is a year older than Momo. He must have been the one who took the lead. I'll go back and question him thoroughly and give you an explanation."
Seeing Liang Xinyun's sincere attitude, and Liang Xinyun's usual gentleness and kindness, Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru didn't say anything more. It was considered a reconciliation between the two families at the parent level.
Everyone was only worried about their own children, and no one pushed the problem onto the other child, nor did they cause any disputes.
But since then, Zhou Zheng and Liu Xiangru kept a close eye on Zhou Mo. Zhou Mo didn't dare to go home with Han Chen. The two agreed to enter the community one in front and the other fifty meters apart.
After Liang Xinyun returned home, she called Han Chen to the living room. The mother and son sat face to face and talked about love.
She didn't question why Han Chen fell to the ground, but instead asked him: "Han Chen, are you serious?"
Han Chen was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Liang Xinyun meant.
Liang Xinyun asked: "Do you know what it's like to really like someone?"
Han Chen shook his head in silence.
Liang Xinyun stood up, walked over to Han Chen, pinched his neck, and said comfortingly, "I never meant to blame you. I just want to tell you a few things. You are a boy, and you are an adult now. Boys need to know what responsibilities are when they go out into society. At this age, liking someone is simple and selfless. You can enjoy it, that's fine, but you must think it through. You can enjoy it, but you also have to take responsibility. You must be cautious and not be careless when starting a relationship. Although free love is advocated now, it cannot be too free, free to the point of having no moral bottom line. Also, although I support any decision you make, I still want to remind you to take your studies seriously and not be distracted."
"Yeah," Han Chen responded.
Liang Xinyun patted Han Chen on the back and said, "Can you give me an answer now? Or do you need to think about it for a few days before giving me an answer?"
Han Chen raised his eyes, and looked at Liang Xinyun with clear eyes. He said to Liang Xinyun firmly: "Mom, I really like her."
Liang Xinyun was surprised by Han Chen's thoughtlessness. "Didn't you say you didn't understand what love was? Why do you think you like her?"
Han Chen looked away. "I don't understand either. I just feel very happy being with her. She's very smart and looks weak and docile, but she's actually very strong-willed and rebellious. Maybe I prefer the contrast between her pretending to be obedient in front of others but openly showing her selfish motives in front of me."
"That's good. You've learned to appreciate each other," Liang Xinyun encouraged. "There's always a reason for liking someone. I was really worried you'd give me a vague answer, saying Momo is great in every way and you like everything about her."
This perfunctory answer also means cheap love.
Han Chen didn't, which meant that he was intentionally observing Zhou Mo, and also that he was really serious.
Liang Xinyun asked again: "Can you tell me the truth? Are you two together now?"
Han Chen was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look Liang Xinyun in the eye. He simply replied, "Yeah."
Liang Xinyun smiled and said, "Yes, there really is someone who likes you."
Han Chen: “…”
Liang Xinyun said, "It seems I was wise and was right to bring you out of the imperial capital."
Han Chen couldn't tell for a moment whether Liang Xinyun was praising him or herself.
Liang Xinyun added, "You have a girlfriend now. You should correct your bad habits and small shortcomings. I can tolerate you indefinitely, but Momo can't. What if you really get married in the future? Do you really want to use Momo as a housekeeper? She's also the little princess of the family, not your old nanny."
Han Chen lowered his eyes: "I will change."
"That's about right," Liang Xinyun began to fantasize, saying, "Should I save up money for you to marry me?"
Han Chen: “…”
At that time, Liang Xinyun really didn't think much about it.
She just thought that she had a good job and an income, and her family now lived in this house, so her conditions were pretty good. As long as her two children had a good relationship, she probably wouldn't have to worry too much about finances in the future.
Zhou Mo's parents both work in public institutions, so the two families are quite compatible.
