Because Lu Xiao's family was also there, Chen Yao was not particularly nervous. After all, she was quite familiar with them. Although she hadn't seen them for many years, the sense of familiarity and intimacy she had before was still there.
Lu Zhan brought Chen Yao to his parents and grandparents and introduced her to them openly.
Chen Yao also greeted them politely one by one, then took out the gifts she had prepared in advance and gave them to them one by one.
Similarly, they also handed the gifts and red envelopes to Chen Yao one by one, praising her for her thoughtfulness.
During the meal, Lu Zhan’s parents said to Shen Yao, “Yaoyao, after Zhan Zhan finishes his work and returns home, we can officially visit your home.”
Chen Yao smiled and said, "Okay."
Hearing this, Lu Zhan's face immediately showed a smile as if he had eaten honey, with the corners of his mouth raised high, and his heart couldn't help but feel extremely happy.
After meeting Chen Yao's parents, they...should be getting married soon, right?
If he gets married in the future, he must hold two weddings, one in China and one in Country M...
After the wedding, he and Shen Yao will go on a honeymoon around the world together, enjoying their sweet and happy world together...

In the evening, when they were about to leave the Lu family, Lu Zhan's parents and grandparents stuffed a lot of good things into their car one after another, and then told them to drive slowly on the way back and come home for dinner when they had time.
Lu Zhan and Shen Yao agreed one by one, and when they were about to take Luky to the car to go back, it suddenly ran to Lu Xiao's side.
Lu Xiao, who was not far away, silently put away the hand that had been used to hook Lucky, winked meaningfully at Chen Yao and Lu Zhan, and said with a smile:
"I'm going to take Lucky, my little darling, with me for a few days. I used to be so used to having him around, but I'm not used to him being away these past few days. I miss him so much."
At this time, logically speaking, Lu Zhan should still take Lucky back from Lu Xiao, but——
He hesitated.
While he was hesitating, Lu Xiao had already carried Lucky to his car with a smile, then waved to Shen Yao and Lu Zhan jokingly and said, "Have fun, everyone."
Chen Yao understood the hidden meaning in her words and her face turned red.
Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows and nodded, but did not respond to Lu Xiao. However, the thought in his eyes was very obvious.
Forget it, let it stay with Lu Xiao for a few days. Besides, it looks like it wants to go with Lu Xiao now.
After all, Lu Xiao can often play with it and take it out for a walk more frequently.
And he and Shen Yao..., cough cough..., have been quite busy these days, so they don't have much time to play with it, so it would actually be more willing to go with Lu Xiao.

On the way back, Lu Zhan was driving the car and Chen Yao was sitting in the passenger seat watching his skillful driving posture. Suddenly, her mind flashed back to when they were not together yet, when Lu Zhan said that if she came to Country M, he would be her driver.
At that time, she joked that she could use him however she wanted. Unexpectedly, not long after, she was able to fulfill what she said.
Tsk tsk…
I have to say it, ahem… strawberry-flavored ice cream is really awesome.
Lu Zhan noticed her eager gaze and asked her, "What's wrong? Yaoyao."
Chen Yao licked her lips, swallowed slightly, and said, "Nothing, nothing."
Lu Zhan actually had something to tell her.
"Yaoyao, I accidentally learned that there's an international fashion design competition going on here soon. It'll probably start early next month. Do you think you're interested in it?"
International competitions related to fashion design?
Of course she was interested, but she didn't know what restrictions they had on the qualifications of the contestants.
"I'm quite interested. Where did you see the news? I'd like to know more about it."
Lu Zhan pointed to his phone and said, "It's in my WeChat collection, take a look."
Chen Yao nodded, picked up his phone and opened WeChat. The first thing that caught his eye was her in the pinned dialog box with the note: Kiss my darling wife.
Chen Yao: ...
Why does it feel a bit earthy for some reason?
Then she opened the collection and clicked in to see information related to the event.
This competition was more formal and high-level than she had imagined. What's more, the best thing was that it did not examine the identity, nationality, and historical achievements of the contestants. However, they had to register and submit their works on the official website first, and only after passing the auditions could they officially participate in the preliminary round.
The more Chen Yao looked at it, the more she felt that she could give it a try, so she sent the link details to "Dear Baby Wife" and returned Lu Zhan's phone to him.
Seeing that she was genuinely interested, Lu Zhan smiled and said, "If you participate in the competition, you might have to come here a few more times."
Chen Yao raised an eyebrow and suddenly asked him curiously, "Did you really learn about this competition by accident?"
Lu Zhan blushed suddenly and said, "Yes, and no..."
Chen Yao: ...
Okay, she knows it.
…
After arriving home, Chen Yao went to take a shower first.
Lu Zhan took out all the things in the car and walked into the house a few steps later.
Not long after, he also entered the bathroom.
In the hazy mist, Lu Zhan leaned against Chen Yao and whispered, "Yaoyao, now... there are only the two of us here, you can rest assured... there will be no Lucky knocking on the door to make trouble."
The only response he received was Chen Yao's flushed face and blurry eyes.
…
A week later, Chen Yao returned home.
This time, she was not going back alone, because Lu Zhan wanted to go back with her.
He thought that this trip was a good opportunity to prepare gifts and formally visit Chen Yao's parents to see what they thought of him.
If they all nodded, did that mean that he could propose to Shen Yao earlier?
Even if he is not old enough to get a marriage certificate, they can prepare for the wedding first and then get the marriage certificate after the wedding.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhan couldn't help but smile. Recently, he seemed to always be unable to help but imagine the future of him and Shen Yao.
However, the reality is that it is still unknown whether he can even pass the test of Chen Yao's parents.
…
After getting off the plane, Chen Yao and Lu Zhan took a taxi home.
After arriving home, they all took a shower before lying down on the bed to rest.
Lu Zhan held the already sleeping Chen Yao in his arms, feeling a little nervous. He wondered if Chen Yao's parents would mind his young age, or that his family was abroad...
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't fall asleep.
…
I don't know how long it took before he finally fell asleep.
