Cheng Qicai told them everything that had happened between them.
After he finished speaking, Mr. Cheng and Ms. Yun remained silent for a long time.
Cheng Qicai awaited their judgment with trepidation. If even this couldn't move them, Cheng Qicai didn't know what to say.
Ms. Yun suddenly sighed deeply, as if in resignation after compromise, "Tell me, what does he see in you?"
She looked Cheng Qicai up and down with a puzzled expression.
Cheng Qicai scratched her face and made a joke, "Maybe it's because I'm witty, humorous, gentle, kind, and have a lot of personal charm?"
Ms. Yun let out a cold laugh: "Heh..."
Seeing Ms. Yun's disdain, Cheng Qicai curled her lip.
No, is what she said really funny?
Well... there is some truth to it, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what Gu Rongqi saw in her.
Maybe it's like a turtle seeing a mung bean, and that's how they came to like each other.
Mr. Cheng looked at Cheng Qicai with a serious expression. "So he's cut ties with his family now?"
"It's half true, I didn't ask him in detail, but I haven't seen him go home."
"You don't know this, you don't know that, how can you be so carefree?" Ms. Yun disliked her even more. "I don't know what Xiao Qi sees in you?"
? ? ?
Why did you start calling me "Xiao Qi"? Wasn't it supposed to be a point-giving game?
Before he could figure it out, Mr. Cheng asked again, "So what do you think about your relationship?"
“Exactly, they even had a falling out with their parents because of you… Sigh, the state of your relationship…” Ms. Yun sighed again, she was very worried and didn’t know what to say.
If they suggest breaking up, it seems heartless on their part; if they don't, then the other party's parents will become a problem.
They never expected Cheng Qicai to choose such a troublesome partner.
She said that Cheng Qicai used to read novels describing CEOs and other CEOs, staying up late into the night to read them.
She ran into a real-life version of it on her way to work, and I'm afraid she'll see it too often and start projecting it onto reality.
Despite all the warnings and admonitions, she still fell for it.
If Cheng Qicai knew that this was what she was thinking, she would definitely jump up and refute it. Reading is one thing, but who would take a novel seriously?
Isn't that something you watch because it won't happen to you?
Of course, she would only say this if she knew the truth; she doesn't know it now.
“This is what I’m thinking. I really love him right now, and if we break up, I’ll probably be heartbroken for a long time.” Cheng Qicai’s voice began to tinge with sadness as she said this. “But if we eventually grow to dislike each other and break up, I won’t be this heartbroken…”
Seeing that Ms. Yun and the others were about to speak, Cheng Qicai raised her voice slightly, "I know you mean he's rich and can afford to waste time, but I can't. But Mom and Dad, although I may not be as rich as him, I'm considered well-off among ordinary people now. Am I worried about not finding someone to date?"
"I can't afford rich men, so I'll find a poor young man to date. It's that simple... Just imagine, how comfortable would you be if a tender-looking younger brother called you 'mother-in-law'?"
"Ouch, Mom, why did you hit me..." Cheng Qicai jumped up, dodging the slap that was about to hit her.
Ms. Yun was so angry she felt dizzy. She gritted her teeth and said, "I see you're quite pleased with yourself. Xiao Qi treated you like that, and we were worried that he would be heartless. But we never expected that you would be the most heartless one..."
"Dad..." Cheng Qicai jumped behind Mr. Cheng and pleaded for help, "Please stop my mom!"
"Alright, Beixiu, it's good that Qicai has her own plans." Mr. Cheng stretched out his hands, protecting Cheng Qicai behind him like a mother hen.
Ms. Yun said with exasperation, "Look at her face! She's so smug now that she has a couple of coins in her purse. If I don't yell at her, she'll start having a harem..."
Wow! Cheng Qicai never expected to hear the term "harem" from Ms. Yun. How trendy!
It was because of Ms. Yun's extreme attitude reversal that Gu Rong felt he would be letting her down if he didn't properly thank her for helping him divert his anger.
Mr. Cheng comforted Ms. Yun, "Bei Xiu, you know that Qi Cai likes to say these nonsensical things. That's just her personality. Don't be angry."
"Does she sound fake?" Ms. Yun glared at her, sat back on the sofa, and suddenly said earnestly, "Even if you're dating, you have to be responsible. How can you be like this? You haven't even broken up yet, and you're already thinking about the next one. What else can you call that but a scumbag?"
Cheng Qicai nodded obediently.
But what she was thinking was, "Wasn't it you who yelled the loudest and told me to break up just now?"
Mr. Cheng sighed and said, "Forget it, you two are in a good relationship now, there's no point in us saying anything more, just think it over."
"Oh..." Cheng Qicai knew that their attitude meant they were reluctantly agreeing to Gu Rongqi's relationship with her.
"Next time you come, bring Xiao Qi along too. After all, people have treated you fairly, considering how things have turned out," Ms. Yun instructed her.
Cheng Qicai nodded, "Okay."
We had planned to go shopping for clothes together yesterday, but that plan fell through. Now that we've talked it out, the three of us went shopping at the mall after dinner.
As she passed the hamburger shop where she had run into Gu Rongqi, she thought of the scene and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
I also took a picture and sent it to Gu Rongqi.
Now that Ms. Yun and the others know about her relationship, she no longer needs to live like a thief, sneaking around and living in fear.
Ah, it feels so good to be aboveboard!
Walking into a clothing store, Ms. Yun took a fancy to a royal blue silk embroidered cheongsam. "How about this one?" she asked.
