Chu Qiuze thought he had heard it wrongly at first. Meeting parents? That meant it was almost time to settle down.

Doesn’t this mean that my brother has completely accepted Blue Eucalyptus?

When Chu Qiu Ze reacted, he was ecstatic. His efforts for so long finally paid off. He jumped to his brother's side and gave him a bear hug.

"Brother, I knew you were the best." Chu Qiuze felt that verbal expression would not show his sincerity, so he quickly kissed his brother on the cheek.

Chu Tianze was slightly stunned. When his younger brother was little, he liked to be hugged by him, and what he liked most was to kiss his face. Every time he did so, his face would be covered with saliva.

Later, when we grew up, we realized that brothers needed to avoid suspicion with each other, and we haven't been this close for a long time.

It was rare to see his younger brother being so childish, and Chu Tianze suddenly felt that it would be nice to have a sister-in-law like Lan An.

Lan An was still standing. He knew very well that Chu Tianze was the brother of his sweetheart. He also knew that the customs at that time were more open. So it seemed normal to kiss his brother?

But I feel a little bit frustrated in my heart! It is commonly known as jealousy.

But seeing Chu Qiuze so happy, Lan An suddenly realized that he was too narrow-minded.

Chu Qiuze stuck to his brother for a while, then he remembered that Lan An was still standing nearby, so he jumped up and pounced on Lan An again.

Likewise, a big kiss on the cheek.

"My friend Lan, Chinese New Year is coming soon. Can you come home with me to meet my parents?"

When Chu Qiuze said this, his face turned red, and he didn't know whether it was because of excitement or a little shyness.

But the stone in Lan An's heart fell to the ground in an instant.

It's time to discuss the marriage. Before coming, he was still thinking about how to mention this to his eldest brother-in-law, but he didn't expect that his eldest brother-in-law would speak first.

I don’t know what the etiquette is in that world when meeting my parents.

But when he thought of the preparations Chu Qiu Ze had made when he first met his mother, he had an idea in his mind.

It's always right to give someone a gift that suits their taste.

"Big brother." Lan An sincerely clasped his fists and saluted: "Thank you, big brother, for helping Qiu Ze and I. I will definitely treat Qiu Ze well. We will be together for the rest of our lives and I will never have two hearts in this life."

He had heard Chu Qiuze mention that his elder brother-in-law had always been afraid that he would take a concubine to continue the family line.

This is really too much worry from the brother-in-law. If he hadn't met Chu Qiu Ze, he had never thought about what love is, and never thought that there would be a place for someone else by his side in the future.

"It's no use telling me. The one you'll be living with in the future is my brother. Just tell him the promises and love words." Chu Tianze said in a very formal tone, "But if you don't treat him well, I will take him away, and you won't be able to see him again in this life."

"Yes!" Lan An answered decisively. He would not give his brother-in-law such an opportunity.

"But." Chu Tianze suddenly felt a little saccharine. "Although our parents have accepted that my brother likes men, whether they can accept you is another matter."

What this means is that it all depends on his performance, Lan An understands.

I just don't know what my father-in-law and mother-in-law like or what taboos they have.

Also, his identity is... a bit sensitive. He heard all this from Chu Qiu Ze.

The most important point is that he is not from that world. How can he get the consent of his father-in-law and mother-in-law to marry the son they have raised for more than 20 years?

"Let's not talk about it for now." Chu Tianze still had things to do in the modern world: "Qiu Ze, take me home first. I'll call you at noon and you can pick me up later."

"What? You still want to come over?" Chu Qiuze was puzzled.

It sounded as if these words were not welcoming Chu Tianze.

Chu Tianze's face darkened. "Can't I come over to look after the little bear? You only know how to fall in love all day long. How can you have the time and energy to take care of the little bear?"

Oh, yes, Chu Qiuze had forgotten that he had raised two adorable little bear cuddles!

She shamelessly acted coquettishly to her brother, and only then did she coax him into submission.

After seeing his brother off, Chu Qiu Ze quickly went to his brother's tent, picked up the little bear cub and started petting it.

Lan An looked at her with amusement, "Are you not going hunting today?"

"No." Chu Qiuze shook his head like a wave drum, "It's too cold. I'd better stay in the tent."

There is a little bear cub in the tent, keeping it warm. Why should we go out and suffer?

He doesn't know how to shoot arrows anyway, so he'd just go there to join in the fun.

"If you want to go, just go." Chu Qiuze is not the type of person who has to keep people by his side. We are all adults and have our own preferences.

There is no need to stick together all the time.

Blue Eucalyptus shook his head, indicating that he didn't want to go either. This is the process of every winter hunting. If it's fast, it will be over in seven or eight days, and if it's slow, it may take ten days or half a month.

Coming here every year seems a bit boring.

Besides, why should he go outside in the cold wind when his sweetheart is in the tent?

I have to say, these two people are really a perfect match.

So, a charcoal brazier was burning in the tent, Chu Qiuze was holding the little bear cub, and Lan An was holding Chu Qiuze.

"Qiu Ze." Lan An thought about it and decided to ask now, fearing that it would be too late: "What do uncle and aunt like?"

Chu Qiuze thought about it and explained everything to Lan An in detail.

He knew that the most difficult part was dealing with the parents, and he couldn't afford to make any mistakes here.

Besides, the Chinese New Year is less than a month away, so we need to prepare in advance.

At this point, I have to mention that Dahan's calendar is actually the same as that of the 21st century, which is what people often call the lunar calendar.

After listening to Chu Qiuze's words, Lan An had an idea in his mind that most of the items could be found in Dahan.

For example, my father-in-law likes calligraphy and painting, and Dahan also has famous calligraphers. Besides, Lan An is confident enough to say that he can write well too.

As for the silk embroidery that my mother-in-law likes, there is no need to say more.

Lan An learned from Chu Qiuze that the craftsmanship in that world was very advanced and there were very few handmade products.

But handmade products are very popular, especially in such traditional culture.

But the other one...Dahan is gone.

"Qiu Ze." Lan An decided to visit that world. "If you have time, can you take me to your world?"

"Of course you can." Chu Qiuze was quite happy. He had invited Lan An to live at his home before, but Lan An had been making all kinds of excuses!

Now that Lan An took the initiative to propose, he couldn't wait to take Lan An home.

"I mean, take me out to have a look." Lan An was a little embarrassed, "I want to buy some gifts for my uncle and aunt."

Chu Qiu Ze was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had never taken Lan An out. During the few times he took her out, Lan An stayed in the villa and didn't even leave the door.

He was careless.

He used to think about taking Lan An back to the 21st century, but later on, the two of them had a mutual understanding, and he felt that anything was fine.

As for preparing gifts for his parents, even if Lan An didn't say it, he would prepare it for Lan An when the time comes.

But since Lan An has this intention, he can't refuse.

"When are you free? Let's go for a walk together." Chu Qiuze was very excited when talking about his own world.

The bigger the mall, the richer the goods.

Lan An listened with great interest. That world was truly a peaceful and prosperous one with the country enjoying prosperity and the people living in peace.

He thought that if the situation in Dahan became stable in the future, he would follow Chu Qiuze to live in that world, see the new world, and learn new things.

Become a completely new person, no longer Dahan's regent, but just Chu Qiuze's partner.

He had not had the chance to tell Chu Qiu Ze about this matter, but at noon, his brother-in-law took the initiative to raise this issue.

It happened during lunch.

Chu Tianze said that he had already told his parents in advance that he would meet his son-in-law during the New Year.

The two elders were stunned for a while before they accepted the fact that they had a son and a daughter-in-law, and agreed to meet them.

but......

"Qiu Ze, go see the little bear first." Chu Tianze sent his brother away. He needed to have a frank talk with Lan An.

Chu Qiuze looked around and knew that his brother had something to say to Lan An, but why couldn't he let him listen?

"Go ahead." Lan An had the same idea as Chu Tianze. They needed to have a good talk. "Qiu Ze, I have something to discuss with my brother. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease."

Chu Qiu Ze pouted, but still agreed, turned around and went out to pet the little bear cub.

"Have you ever thought about living in our world?" Chu Tianze was as direct as ever and started with the question.

"I've thought about it." Lan An expressed his thoughts and plans for the future.

Chu Tianze was quite satisfied, but how long would it take for the country of Dahan to be peaceful and prosperous?

He knew that his brother had now accepted a long-term mission, and the mission required peace and prosperity for the country.

Chu Tianze thought about it, and then asked Lan An to send away the servants waiting at the door.

Some things have to be said quietly and cannot be heard by these ancient people.

"I already know about your mother's affairs." Chu Tianze said: "Although you respect your aunt's wishes, it depends on where they want to live."

Lan An nodded, that was indeed what they planned.

If his mother and her lover wanted to live in Chu Qiu Ze's world, he also had a way to make sure his mother lived well in that world.

He learned from Chu Qiu Ze that gold can be circulated in both worlds, and he had plenty of gold.

But if his mother didn't want to leave her hometown, he would find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers for her to live out her life.

But doing so is risky, there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable.

Chu Tianze also grasped this point, "You should also know something about our world. Compared to Dahan, I believe it is very safe and very convenient."

As long as you have money, you can live a very good life in the 21st century.

There is no class distinction, and no unrest that threatens one's future.

"I will discuss it with my mother." Lan An knew what Chu Tianze meant.

Chu Tianze continued: "If the people you care about are all in our world, do you still want to stay in Dahan?"

Blue Gum was silent.

The emperor's elder brother had been kind to him. His elder brother personally handed the little prince to him, hoping that he could assist the little prince.

This is what he has been doing all these years.

He himself had no interest in imperial power, nor did he want to be a regent under the emperor, but how could he go back on his promise?

What's more, Dahan is not peaceful nowadays. There are some disturbances at the border every year and the people have a hard life.

"Think about it carefully." Chu Tianze patted Lan An's shoulder.

"I'm not forcing you. I'm just giving you a choice. Qiu Ze will stay in this world until the country is at peace and the people are at peace, but he will go back every day. This will not be his home.
